ing a Fine-Boyle, Charged
With vagrancy, Admit
ted He Was Drunk.

Bert Breeding of 119 South Montana
street was arrested yesterday on ac-
count of a shot fired by some one at
Mrs. Pierre Smiths five dollar rooster.
The shot was fred in the morning. and
Breeding, unluckily for him, had the
curiosity to peek out of his window
about that time. This inspired Mrs.
Smith to believe that he was the cam
noneer who was engaged in bonfbariinS
the l.ennery.
Mrs. Smith swore to a warrant charg-
ing Breeding with discharging firearms
within the city limits against the statute
made and provided. He was arrested
under the name of John Doe. and the
husband of Mrs. Smith went on his bond.
Breeding explained to Judge Boyle. who
set his case for next Friday afternoon
that the Smiths We're friends of his. and
that Mrs. Smith had had him arrested
by mistake, which, was quite remark
able circumstance. After Breeding
trial was set, Smith came to the police
court and announced to Judge Boyle
that Mrs. Smith desired to withdraw the
charge she had sworn u.
City Attorney Lamb desired to know
why Mrs. Smith had sworn so recklessly
and Judge Boyle directed Mr. Smith te
ask her to come up and explain tomor'
row morning.
Just Missed His Juglar.
John Young, a young colored man, wa!
in the police court this morning to an
swer to charge of being drunk. Las
night he visited the Swiss saloon, OF
Arizona street, and there he received
cut across the back of the neck tina
nearly wound up his mortal career
Somebody drew knife across his necl
in santing direction from the top o
the left ear to point near the base o
the right ear.
1T just missed the jugular," said Dr.
Leggat, the city physician, who dresse
the wound at the Jail.
Young said he did not know who too
such chances of killing him, nor VIVA
he had done to merit butchery, but h
may not have been entirely frank abou
that. When asked to plead to the drum
charge, he explained to Judge Boyl
that he had sauntered into the Swiss Sc
loon, and that somebody there had CT
him, and that the cut had required
stitches to close it. This was a goo
plea, and the judge discharged him.

THEY DO NOT WANT TIE

n
The Bill of Police Magistrate Boyle
Has Been Held up by the COM.
misioners-Attorney General 6
Jas. W. Donovan Will be
Asked to Pass Upon
the Case. ~

Police Magistrate Boyle, who has been
recently handling justice of the court
cases in addition to city cases. has pre-
scented a bill to the county for serv-
ices as ex-off1cio justice of the peace,
but the commissioners desire light on the
legitimacy of the claim before allowing
it and have asked the attorney general
for an opinion.
Recently the justices of the peace who
have to do with the business of the low
err courts of Silver Bow county COM
planned that Judge Boyle had no right
to try the cases for the county and that
the cases should properly come through
their courts. This would give all the
fees and perquisites to the men who were
elected to try cases for the pople of Sill
yer Bow county and would take weight
off the shoulders of the city judge.
1--WE admit that under the law the pc.
lice Judge has a right to try these cases.
said one of the justices this morning.
but we are also of the opinion that ne
does not want to do so and should not
be asked to take on this additional labor
The work we have to do Is not heaVy
and we could just as easily try THESE
cases as not and we are clearly en-
titled to do so by the verdict OF tne
voters at the polls. We doubt II the
county can pay a police Judge while the
Justice courts are open for the business
taken to the city magistrate and we have
raised the question and asked that tpe
state be called upon to render an opm'
ion in the case. :.
"It would be more convenient to al
concerned to have the line drawn soPe'
where In this matter and let the cases
go where they rightfully belong. con-
| tinued the justice. "Then the intent1pt
! of the voters would be carried out ane
| there would be no need of paying money
| to the city magistrate from the county
treasury. We have hopes that this WI
soon be DONE"

Had Coal Dust in His Hair.
James Boyle, a typical Weary Willie.
whose week-old beard was black with
the coal dust of the railroads. was up
before Judge Boyle this morning on
charge of vagrancy. The clerk of the
court Mr. VIM, read the indictment
against him and begged him to honor
the court with a plea.
Yes; 1 was drunk" the gentleman OF
leisure said
You are not charged with being
drunk; you are charged with vagrancy
Are you guilty or not guilty." Mr.. Winn
demanded.
"Oh, no; no, no; I'm not .xsrant,"
protested Willie in a Mortified voice.
DO you plead not guilty? Are you
guilty or not guilty? Do you plead gull
ty?" said the clerk.
Yes: guilty" murmured the man
with coal dust in his whiskers. and the
agony was over.
Then Judge Boyle Clipped in and gave
him so days, saying with an encourag-
ing smile: Wen just send you up for
awhile to take the whiskey out of you.

Juror Made Threats.


The other affidavit was made by Fell
ker himself. In it he claimed that
Charles ]. Cutler. one of the jurors. at
ter being retained, remarked to John
w. Cotter. one of the attorneys for the
defense: II will get even with you."
or Il will get even with you for not
having challenged me off this Jury.
Every dog has his day."
Cutler had asked to be excused from
service because of sickness in his fam.
ily but neither the Judge nor the de.
Tense would consent to a release.
The nine jurors who deny Ginsberg'A
statement are George Rogers. Joseph
Maillette, c. A. Greenfield, Peter Bu-
reau. NJ. S. Fifer. Hiram Watson, Jacob
Kambrine, Charles J. Cutler, and John
Cook. All deny Ginsberg's statement to
the effect that the photographs were
examined in the jury room. They say
that the only time they were examined
was in the court room while the trial
was in progress and that they did not
see them in the jury room.
The affidavit of Mr. Cutler contains
additional matter. He says he asked
the court and Mr.. Cotter to excuse him.
but they refused, and he did make some
remark to the latter about getting even
with him. But affiant states most en-
phatically," says Mr.. Cutler. that he
was not in anywise prejudiced OR biased
against the defendant, nor was he, in
| any way, Influenced in rendering his
verdictby reason of the fact that the dee
| PENDANTS attorney failed to excuse this
| aff1ant by the exercise of a peremptory
challenge.
Cutler Was Not Biased.
! "Aflant further says that he has
known John w. Cotter for a number of
years; that they Offices in the same
building, the Hennessy block; that for
years he has met Mr.. Cotter almost
daily and that they We're at the time on
the best of terms; that during the trial
Of the cause the seat of af1ant was not
over two feet from the one occupied by
Mr. Cotter; that it was easy for aftant
| to address a remark in an undertone to
| Mr.. Cotter and he did address him IN
banfering way as stated in the Felker
affidavit, but aff1ant most positively
states that he meant nothing thereby
and that he was not in the slightest
way biased or prejudiced against the
said John w. Cotter or the defendant
because of their refusal to excuse this
aff1ant by the exercise of perempt-
DRY challenge"
Mr.. Cutler also says that the jury did
not get hold of any photographs of Cum
ningham after going into the jury
room, as stated by Ginsoerg.

MICHAEL 6. MULHALL,
FAMOUS IRISH STATTSHCIAN.

Michael G. Mulhall, whose death was
recently announced, was perhaps the
best known statistician of the present
day. Mulhall was born at Killiney,
near Dublin, sixty-four years ago, and
his career was full of adventure. He
was educated in Rome at the Irish Col
lege, and he was the pioneer Of the En-
glish newspaper press In South Ameri-
ca, the first paper printed there, in our
language, having been the Standard,
produced by Mulha1 at Buenos Ayres
In 1858. In 1873 he returned to En-
gland, and proceeded to make his name
as the author of THE Progress of the
World" '"The History of Prices," and
the invaluable Dictionary of Statis-
TICS" which finds place In every ref
erence library. Mulhall was married
to a lady whose book, Between the
Amazon and the Andes," placed her
among the ranks of ladies who travel
well and write well of their travels.

THE SOUTH WIND.

Wind that sings of the dreamy South
When the pale first blossoms woo the
bee,
Wind that filings from a golden mouth
Tender spray of the summer sea,
Wind that keeps for us light and bloom
That cradles the bird In the tree-top
nest,
Wind that sleeps in the lilac's plume,
OF the winds of heaven we love the
best.
Over the springing wheat-6elds pass,
And over the small home gardens fare,
Evermore bringing to grain and grass
And the flowers thy breath of blessing s
rare.
Give us the cup of thy wine to taste,
. wind of the South, so strong and
fleet!
Never drop of its joy to waste,
In the days of the springtime coy and
sweet.
