.PASQUINI WAS
HEAVILY FINED.
Opened Girolaml's Old Place
Through Ignorance
4. OF Law.

- Z. Pasquini, the yoluble barkeeper, who
saw that Fifteenth and Franklin Streets
was a good stand for bar-room, was
before Justice John yesterday morning
Il on the charge OF keeping the place open
contrary to the laws, In that under
the ordnance and statutes a license must
be displayed. He displayed no license,
but In his bland innocence he thought
he was entitled to do SO. because he
had laid forth his intentions to the clerk
/ OF the Hastings Court and had put In
his application for @ license. f4
Y & He didn't want to lose any time, and
hated to see people pass by the closed
doors OF the old Girolaml place. SO he
opened up with an air OF conviction.
He was convicted. And when he heard
Justice John say $3.50 and costs, his short
hair stood on end. 4is
Aided and abetted by his able COUNSEL
Mfr Harry Glenn. he Immediately took
an appeal. and will run chances with
twelve tried and true American citizens
It was purely a. case OF Ignorance on
the part OF Pasquini, who thought that
as long as he had gone through the
formula. he had right to do business
In the meantime.
Julia ;Frayser colored, will tell on Sat-
urday why she Is charged with taking
a lot Of wearing apparel and a silver
spoon belonging to 3. Fl. Berry all valued

but Ii seemed to have been a mistake,
and upon the payment Of SLIGO costs the
charge was dismissed.
& George James was arrested for having
tub OF butter in his possession. and as
a suspicious character he was sent down
for sixty days. The butter Is at the
