In The Justice Court.-One of the
highest nnes given for plain case
of drunkenness, was this morning as
sessed by Justice of the Peace Gavito
against Isidoro Garcia, who was fined
$25 and costs for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct. Being unable to
pay the fine, the culprit was sent to
Jail, where he will have ample oppor-
tunity to reflect on the ways of the
transgressor and prepare for his next
spree. Garcia is an old offender, be-
ing a familiar figure on the meanness
bench of Justice Gavito's court, which
accounts for the size of his fine.
Pedro Martinez, who was hailed
before His Honor Justice of the Peace
Gavito today. was assessed the GUS
tomary $1.00 and for disorderliness
in lieu of which he was sent to the
county jail Last night Pedro

stomach for a barrel house and tried
to store away all of the mescal he
could find. AS q result, he raised
such a row, that he was ''pinched'
and spent last night in the Hotel d.
Cara. This morning he was haled
before Justice Gavito with the above
results.
