AN UGLY CUSTOMER.
WhitnsvilIe Man Goes to Woonsocket
Gets Arrested and Fights Policeman.

| Whitinsville, Jan. tI-Alexander Pa
pillon of this place went to Woonsoc-
ket Saturday evening. Papillon laid in
supply of liquor and put it all where
it would have the best effect, under his
vest. He went to the depot and
watched the train come in that was to
| carry him home, but he didn't board it
in hurry. He stopped talking with
friends until the train had started, and
then wanted to show onlookers how
nice he could board a moving train
He made a crooked dash for it, but
was saved from injury and perhaps
from death by Patrolman Pooley, who
saw the mans condition and realized
his real danger. Papillon was then a
most ungrateful fellow for a few hours
complaining to the police for being pre-
vented from taking his train. He came
around again in time to board the mid
night train. He was SO fresh and
diSorderly in the depot that Patrol
man Pooley arrested him and locked
him up in the police station, on a
charge of drunkenness. The policeman
had tussle in arresting him, in which
Papillon tore Pooley's coat. Sunday
morning, when Papillon was sober, Pa
trolman Hoar took him to the court
house for arraignment. Papillon was
ugly, and without warning drew off
and punched the policeman in the eye
and in the tussle bit the policemans
thumb In court he was fined $40 and
costs, but was unable to pay and was
committed.
Joseph Codeau of the west end came
