WOMAN RUNS
BAREFOOT THROUGH
FROZEN SNOW
CONFINEMENT IN COUNTY
JAIL

Just because she desired to walk
through the snow barefoOted, not
for the purpose of cleaning her
pedal extremities, but just for the
fun of the thing, poor Mary O'Nell
was arrested yesterday and now
graces a cell in the women's ward
at the county jail. 1t was only one
of her eccentricities and indications
pointed to her having grasped the
idea spiritually, or with the aid OF
spirits, such as are envoked with
the use of bottle or cask.
Nevertheless mary was arrested
and her feelings were chagrined
But it was not the first time that
mary had been pinched, for she has
been a frequent visitor in the po'
lice court. Only a week ago she
enjoyed the same experience wher
her husband, or alleged husband
had her arrested for going through
his wardrobe and taking therefron
many articles which mysteriousl!
disappeared. A satisfactory adjust
ment was evidently effected for th
complaining witness did not appea
to prosecute the case. All this ha
nothing to do with Mary and he
barefooted walk through the frozel
snow and it is probable that
charge of disorderly conduct will b
placed against the lady and he
near future will be again decided i
the justice court.

Fred Anderson, a recent arrival
from Round Mountain, while out
celebrating several nights ago, be-
came imbued with the idea that
Jack Johnson was a second-rater
in the fighting business, and after
telling everybody he met of his
opinion, finally secured an argument
with bystander, and talked just
one minute too long, for he was
relegated to the Jeffries class. His
appearance was not exactly the same
and it was doubtful if he would
have recognized himself had he
looked in a glass His disturbances
did not cease with the first argu-
ment and finally when he became
too disorderly the police grabbed
him and he was taken to the city
bastile for the night.
Yesterday afternoon Anderson was
brought before Judge Atkinson, and
after the court was informed of the
circumstances, the defendant was
fined $40. In the absence of the
amount of the f-e, Anderson was
extended an in ,tion to be guest
Of Sheriff Re % over the holidays
and enjoy the hospitality OF the
Hotel de Robb for at least the next
| twenty days. So it appears that thu
prisoner will not only enjoy thu
hospitality of the present sheriff
but will be on hand to greet Sheriff

commodations as provided for unde

services will be appreciated on tn
