After soaking up copious quantities of
pure and adultera,ed wet goods Charles
Mcdonnell of Lamartine conceived the
notion that he could whip the entire pop
ula,ion Of Idaho Springs last Tuesday
evening. After insulting a number Of
citizens, he assaulted Jud Brown near the
Lamartine office, and Night Marshal
Mitchell, contrary to the expectation OF
Mcdonnell, took the belgerant indivia-
ual to the city lookup. In making the
arrest the night watch was obliged to use
his club and Mcdonnell had a very sore
cranium the next morning when he ap-
peared before Police Magistrate wilkins.
The latter assessed fine and costs on
the charge of disturbance, which amount
ed to f79. so, and if the same is not paid
the would-be bad man will languish in
the county jail as guest of Sheriff Sand
