 Ben Miller, young negro. about 22 years old, became very thirsty last Sat urday afternoon. Ben worked at the International Ice Plant. and although he could have had any amount Of ice water, nothing could Quench his thirst but beer, A car load of bottled beer had been bought by two Selma nrms and the car was switched by the rail- road into the yard of the ice plant, where one of the firms was to store US part and take it out as 1t was needed
 Part of the casks that the car con tained had been taken out and stored. and a dray load had been taken out ana carted up town to . wholesale hrm when the terrible thirst for beer came on Ben Miller. He went into the car and knocked the head of one of the casks in and took out seventeen bot ties. These bottles he took into the sawdust room and hid them. Occa- sionally he would go and get bottle and drink 1t. Some Of the other ne ne groes around the ice plant saw nm drinking and asked him for some of his beer.
 Ben took one of them back to the sawdust room and gave him bottle for himself and another negro, ana toio them that he had taken 1t from the car. He also presented the engineer with bottle.
 The theft was traced to Ben and he was arrested for the offense~ He was tried in police court this morning ana claimed that he had bought the beer from a drayman, but he couldn't prove it. Acting Mayor Berry adjudged Ben guilty and for the seventeen bottles that he took he gave ninety days Tn which to help clean the streets Of the city.
