Jack Kearns, a night man in the

by officer Murphy in the White House
restaurant for dlsorderly conduct, and
was landed in the city Jail, after a
brief struggle. Kearns was in the
restaurant eating his midnight lunch,
when, without cause, he became
abusive, cursing the cook and waiter
and, incidentally, the patrons of the
house. He was asked to keep quiet.
and that seemed TO fan his anger. OF.
flcer Murphy was in the house, and
he quietly asked the man to behave
himself, and reasoned with him,
Kearns, in answer to the officer, be.
gan to abuse him, and then struck at
him. The disturber was quickly re.
moved from the restaurant, but on the
street he again attempted to assault
the officer, and, in the struggle, and
the two men fell, Officer Murphy
spraining his ankle in the fall, while
the prisoners head was hurt by strik-
ing the cement walk. He was soon
landed in the prison, however, where
he spent the night.
