Charlie Is Fined

Vegetable Charlie" was fined $40
aud costs in Justice Coodman's court
yesterday as the elimination Of thu
proceedings against him on charge
of having dealt with his old white
horse in an inhuman manner. He had
denied that il was his horse which
had been so severely dealt with, al
lcging that bis fiery steed was in good
shape, but as related in the Astorian
yesterday, he failed to bring in his
equine for inspection by the court
But yesterday he did bring Il in
Charles horse fell down in the mud
while being brought over the hill, and
arrived here in condition that could
not Wy any stretch OF the imagination
he called pretty. But the mud was
cleaned off at a livery stable, hose
was turned on the animal, curry
comb was used briskly, oats were
forced down its willing throat, a
blanket OF pretty coIors was careless
ly thtown over lis slender back, and
thus prsened and prinked It was led
over to justice court for inspection.
Justice Goodman hardly knew what
Arab steed stood before him. But as
the horse was divested Of the blanket
ii became apparent that il really
was Charles horse after all, for there
we're the sharp alpine peaks formed
BY its hip bones, there were the deep
coirugations formed by its protruding
ribs, and there was the backbone that
looked like the bar Of a clothes horse,
Justice Goodman looked for time,
and then lcctured Charlie in the lar-
guage OF the new testament as ap-
piled to modern affairs. Then came
the fine Of $40, which with the costs,
aggregated SIS. AS matter Of
fact the horse is so old that it can not
be fattcned, probably, but much evi.
dence tended to show that Charlie
hadn't used the humane treatment
thar should have been expected.
