constant annoyance 10 tie police force,
was brought up on a charge of va

OF SINS Danny would not admit the
charge, but Jim Williams stated. in
erect. that Danny's sole occupation was
rushlng GROWERS. and that his domain
seemed TO extend from Commercial

Yer off wrong" said Danny, who
early developed a proclivity to call the
wfeness friend" He asked Jim sew
eral questions, and insisted that the
offleer did not see him in town last
Monday night, as he was at Milford,
ana did not get here until early Tues
day morning
guess there amt much use in ask
ing any questions, the defendant con-
tinued. Il am not guilty OF this charge -
eonvincingly, and will be pleased to
get a few minutes to get out of town
in at least"
Danny got whole half hour.
Before pleading guilty. I'd like to
say a few Words began II. Wells.
That I've been drinking a little don't
deny, but me friend and meself here
was going TO the Warm Springs and
get bath and then go home and be-
nave ourselves, but the policeman came
before we started, and you see how it
Is We had liquor with us, but we were
going TO take that home"
The court mated to see a good impulse
checked, even as Pudd' nhead Wilson,
but that didn't save the pleader and
his pal, John Barleycorn Ferguson,
from the prospect of being sent out
with the Prison Labor association for
FIVE successive days.
Gus Anderson: "Yassir, vas drunk
My feet vas get vet" gazing fondly
upon a pair of kicks that might have
passed through Spion Kop, land
fought would take some drinks maybe
to get better
The court grinned and bore It, and
Gus, after adding that he had probably
got too much, yassir," was consigned
to the morgue to ponder over the
worth of his medical discovery for the
period of five days
Charles Boyd, even, would not deny
that he had been mixed up with tin
roof cocktails, owing to his large circle
of acquaintance among the knights
Of the bar towel, but wasn't he from
COrey's?
As has been demonstrated before,
there is nothing in Tfmmony's ritual
that makes the word Corey an argu-
ment, nor is it calculated to produce a
stay of execution, so Charles will be
in our midst for the biggest part Of
a week.
George Walker, a grizZled old man,
was charged with drunkenness, but
Diehl stated at the OUTSET that he ap-
Deared to be demented Such proved
TO be the case. Walker turned upon
the court, and, in a torrent IF words,
denied that he was drunk; said he was
sick; had had nothing to eat for two
days; had been in the asylum three
times; a man had given him a bottle of
liquor, but he had given it away ito a
fireman who put out the fire.; he had
fallen down, and must have hurt his
head, as it was all ''hard up behind;
he never had inSult6d anybody; never
touched whisky: was sent up for three
days before, and would get damages in
a higher court; he never saw such an
immoral town as Salt Lake; women go
into restaurants at all hours of the day;
he had fits once in while, and mother
was 2. lady.
You will be remanded." remarked
the court, and we win try to get you
in the hospital at Provo
Walker took no exception.
Charles Ridgley and Belle Anderson,
charged with immoral conduct, were
remanded until today, when the county
attorney will take up the case against
them.
