tending some of his patients in War
rem the latter part of last week. His
team was hitched in the shed adjoin-

ing for the sick member of the family.
When he returned he found his horse
presented peculiar spectacle. A man
named Oscar Martin in an intoxica-
ted condition had docked the animal s
tail with pair of shears. The doctor
also found his medicine chest empty
twenty-four bottles with contents hav-
ing been smashed, and he missed a
pocket book containing notes and valu-
able papers. DR.. Howe notified the
States Attorney, F. A. Bailey of this
city, and warrants for the arrest of
Martin were made out, one for mali
cious mischief and another for intoxi-
cation. He was arraigned before Judge
Lyford of Warren, acting as justice,
pleaded guilty to both charges, and
was fined So and costs of $4. 81 in each
case

but was convicted and fined $40 and
costs of $500. He was then tried
for intoxication and again pleaded not
guilty but was convicted also of the
second charge and fined $5 and costs Of
50. 16. He took an appeal on each of
the charges but late in the afternoon
he was looking for money to Fay the
fines and waive his appeal.
Sullivan is seventy-three years of
age. He came home at night aud be-
gan to raise trouble with his family,
so that they spent the night elsewhere
and left him to cool off in the house
until morning when he became in a
more affable frame of mind.
