D1SPBNSARY LAW VIOLATORS.
constable EiS0n Arrests White Man and
SeizeS a Gallon Of Liquor at
Whitmire.

Constable j. R. Eison while at Whit
mlre on Wednesday succeeded in making
one arrest for violation of the dispen-
sary law and seizing one gallon of
liquor.
The man arrested is white man,
John Metts. Constable Eison was
standing in crowd when Metts walked
up to gentleman, delivered him :,
quart of whskey and received dollar.
1t seems that the party had sent for
the liquor before Mr.. Eison got to
Whitmire, and that Metts did not know
Mr.. Eison as constable and delivered
the liquor in his presence. Metts was
arrested on the spot and carried before
Magistrate FAINT, who committed him
to Jail. He failed to give bond and is
still in Jail.
Nets story of the affair is that the
gentleman to whom he delivered the
liquor had asked him to go over and buy
him quart from some negroes who
were selling. That he went and paid
for the liquor, and was simply being
paid in return when he delivered it,
He says he will engage attorneys and
fight the case to finish.
The liquor which Mr.. Eison seized
was one gallon, shipped to Lewis Hand.
A diligent search failed to disclose the
identity of Lewis Hand, and no one
claimed the package.

house near their other buildings on
the Omaha tracks in this city. The
building will DE used principally tor
grain and feed and has become
necessary largely on account of the
increased demand for these goods
owing to the rapid settlement of the
surrounding country. 1t will be
thirty feet wide by seventy feet in
length and will be quite an addi-
ton to the equipment of the firm in
this city. e

manager and division superin tend

officers on a tour of inspection
They found everything in ship

cial coal is beginning TO move at a
rapid rate from ten to twenty five

There is In the county Jail now a
man whom the officers took into
custody supposing him to be insane.
An examination was made by
Doctors Hicks and Mitchell and
seemed to point to the facts being
as expected. He is being held till
his relatives can be heard from or
till he developesl more, pronounced
symptoms. The man has been
maintaining himself by gathering
junk and tells a sorrowful tale of the
misfortunes he he has encountered
on his travels from his home in
Michigan.
The hunters of this vicinity re-
port an abundance OF grouse this
season and the best prospects for a
good hunting fall this country has
seen in a long time. There are
also few quill in the country and
if they are not killed off it looks as
though there might be good quail
shooting in few years. The quail
is a protected bird but that fact
does not protect them from being
shot. Anyone however ought to
be willing to refrain from killing
them till they become so numerous
that there will be no danger of ex-
terminating the few hardy pioneers
that have come to make their home
here. A good many years ago there
were great f1ocks of them in Wiscon-
sin but so tame are they and so
easily captured that for the past few
years hardly one could be found.
They seem to be coming back how
ever and sportsmen are doing all in
their power to protect them until
their numbers increase.
