Uncle SOl's Rise and Fall as An
Attorney.

City Jailer KimbaH made his debut
IN police court yesterday as an attor-
ney at law. His first efforts at the bar
were attended by rather startling re-
suits, as consequence of which his
clients are now after his scalp, and the
new attorney declares that ne is go
ing 10 quit the profession. His expe-
renee yesterday decided him that his
former title of NJ .. of the city Jail
was good enough. without adding to it

Determined to Have a Room Or
Bust"
TERR0RIZED THE HOTEL
JOHN SHREDDER OF EURRAY
MAKES THINGS HUM.

Armed with a big gun, and declaring
that he would have a room or bust"
a stranger loaded TO the muzzIe with
booze, forced a young man at the point
of a revolver to guide him from Sew
enth South and Fourth East streets
early this morning to the Knutsford,
where he created a reign of terror for
few minutes by flOurishing his gun in
dangerous proximity to the head of the
night clerk Failing to get a room
there, he started for the Cullen, but
ran across Officer Hempel on the way,
and was rendered a room at the city
Jail.
The young man who acted as guide
under rather exciting circumstances
was j. r. Simpkins, who lives on East
First South street. He had just left
the house of young lady friend on
Seventh South, when a man suddenly
stepped before him, and, pulling re-
volver, ordered him to walk ahead and
show him to room, or there would be
trouble. The man fOuTished his gun in
the young mans face by way of en-
Ihasis, and the latter promptly con-
scented to show the stranger to any
place in town he should name. The boy
said he was pretty shaky. but marched
along until he got to the KnutsfOrd
corner, fearing that at any moment the
man might take a notion to shoot.
At the KnutsfOrd the man walked
INTO the motel. ana. marching up 10
the desk with the air of a Buffalo Bill,
demanded a room. Clerk Armstead
surveyed the rather rough appearance
OF the man, and, seeing his condition,
informed him that they had no room.
Look here, sonny, you'd better tell
me the truth, said the man, as ne drew
his revolver. cor I'll show you how we
make them tell It in Texas"
Those who We're in the lobby at the
beginning Of the affair had urgent calls
elsewhere about this time. and Clerk
Armstead assured the man that he
was telling the truth. and cautiously
limited that the gentleman might find
a room elsewhere. Greatly to the relief
Of the clerk. the stranger and his gun
started out of the house, declaring that
ne was going TO the Cullen. AS the man
disappeared through the door the clerk
drew a sigh OF relief and took drink
OF water.
In the meantime young Simpkins had
hurried to the police station and Sc
cured officer Hempel As they were
returning they saw the man with the
gun walk into a saloon. and. following
himN the officer quickly disaTmed and
arrested him. He offered no resistance,
but smiHngly accepted a bed behind the
bars. At the station he gave his name
a. John Shredder, and claimed to come
from south Of Murray, where ne said
he wa semployed in a brick works. His
gun was a 4f-Caiiher and loaded. He
was far under the influence OF liquor.
but the police say they believe he must
be slightly demented. Shredder was
booked on a charge Of assault with a
deadly weapon.
