IN THE TROUBLE sHooP.

Henry Weiman, who is charged with
criminal assault by q. Hamilton, ne.
ceived hearing yesterday in Justice
Goodman's court.
After hearing the testimony of Ham.
ilton and three witnesses, Deputy Prose.
cutting Attorney Abcrcrombie elected
enough evidence to warrant Justice
Goodman binding him over for appear.
ance in the circuit court with bonds
placed at $50.
Hamilton presented anything but a
handsome appearance with his head
swathed in handagcs and hardly able To
force the words between his teeth, while
Weiman semed unconcerned as to what
was in store for him,
In giving his testimony Hamilton said
he had taken u few glasses of beer be-
fore going To the boarding house kept
by Weimau in order To deliver mes.
sage TO some acquaintance who were
in the dining room. Tn arriving there
he had no sooner stepped into the room
when he was ordered out; this he hest.
tated about doing for an instant and
before he had time TO 90,
even ii he had cared TO do
50 he was knocked down aud
kicked in the face; he then staggered
to his feet and found hi, way upstair,
To the room of an acquaintance. Here
he remained awhile, but fearing to 20
down alone he persuaded the other man
10 20 with him as far as the street and
at the same time drawing his knife TO
defend himself
He had no sooner reached the lower
floor when, according To his testimony,
he was struck in the side by some mis-
sile thrown by Wciman, who again or
dered him Off the premises, As he was
then in an alleyway he refused to 90
and was attacked by Wciman and his
brother with an iron poker, breaking
his jaw in three places.
On the other hand, Weiman says Ham.
ilton was drunk and that he did not
throw anything and only hit him with
the poker after Hamilton had lungcd
at his neck with the knife.
