Doorway.
TAKES DRINK AS A BRACER
After Long Ride On Train-ls
Fined 81 AS a Disorder

Fatigued by a long ride on the cars
from a city in the south, woman Civ
ing her name as Louisa Smith bought
herself a pint of whisky at a Rock ISL
and saloon last night to brace up, as
she told the magistrate when brought
before him on a charge of disorderly
conduct. She was let so with a fine of
ST. The woman was found drunk and
asleep in the front doorway of the Win
tiers liquor house on Third avenue at an
early hour this morning by Policeman
John Kinney. She was escorted to po-
lice headquarters and placed in a cell
She was partially sobered when she
awoke this morning and she broke into
a crying spell. Her moaning could be
heard for a block. The officers were
unable to quiet her, and let her con
tinue until she wore herself out.
Takes 1t As Medicine.
Louisa said that she had no love for
liquor. When she did imbibe it was
solely for medicinal purposes. She
gave the names of several Rock Island
families by whom she had been en-
ployed as servant in years past Re
Gently she went south, but did not like
the country. and returned to Rock ISL
and. She had a position in view here
but when she alighted from the train
last night she was not feeling as she
thought she should. She said she call
ed at the back door of a saloon and
purchased a half pint of whisky. She
took one drink, and in less time than il
takes to relate the fact she declared
she was webbing Louisa believes
that the saloonkeeper put dope in the
liquor, but for what reason she could
not state. She did not know him, neith-
ar did he know her.
Pint should Not Hurt Anyone.
But | remember the saloon where
bought the liquor" said Louisa, land
will get even with that man. no mat
ter how long it takes to do so If
had drunk the whole pint it would not
have affected me. unless there was
something in it that should not be
there" Forgetting her declaration that
she was not accustomed TO drinking
stimulants, Louisa said that often be-
fore she had taken down pint of red
eye, and no one would be any the
wiser unless she peached on herself.
Louisa refused at first TO tell the police
her name She said she had many ac-
quaintances in the city, and she did not
want them to know of her plight When
told that there must be a name for rec
ord, she said to let it go at Smith. She
said she had left her baggage at local
hotel, but she would not say which one.
