ALL SORTS OF PEOPLE
BEFORE TIMMONY

Judge Timmony had a motley crew
to whom TO dispense justice yesterday
afternoon. The police force had round
ed up quite a number of hobos, vag-
rants and DRINKS on Tuesday morn
ing. In fact every other man said that
he was from Montana and intimated
that the labor troubles of the Occur
d'Alenes had forced him to leave.
James Mckinney, who was charged
with being drunk, was discharged, but
John Roach, who had been arrested on
the same charge, forfeited his bail of
IS. Peter Peterson, w. B. White and
William Foley were each fined SO for
drunkenness. 10
John Peterson, who was charged with
being both drunk and a vaSrant, had
his sentence suspended on condition
that he leave town. 1t is presumed
that John has gone by this time. If
he has not he will be required to board
with the city during several days in
case he is again found.

as a vagrant maintained that he was
distant cousin of Judge John w. Judd,
eX-United States attorney. That will

DO you know ex-United States At
torney John w. Judd?'

replied this dilapidated specimen of hui
mainly. II know him.
Probably Judge Judd would be a very
surprised man were he to see this
claimant upon his blood. 1t might
startle him. But this branch of the
Judd family will not linger long in Salt
Lake. Judge Timmony advised him
to move on to other pastures just as
soon as he could get out of town.
(Which way did you come FROM"
asked the judge of Peter Henry, who
was charged with trespass.

Richmond was permitted to keep on
moving.
w. A. Pence and John Miller who had
also come from Montana, were ordered

leave town. 1t won't take you that long
if you hurry"
Albert Miller, who was also held for
vagrancy. said that he had worked in
the Union Pacific car shops at Denver
for 10 cents per hour and four hours
per day.

Short Line shops to look for work
