 Gun Play Comes High
 Two dollars a minute is a pretty high rrice to pay for playing in the park of "The Bad Man from Deadwood Gulch," but that is what it cost F. F. Hall white man about 35 years of age. for little escapade on Sunday evening in which, with the assistance of a couple of pistols, he terrorized the citizens of Tuxedo for about two hours. Hall was tried before the recorders s court yesterday on the charge of az gravated disorderly conduct and the evidence developed the facts that, on Sunday evening he held up num- Der of negroes in the neighborhood of Tuxedo, threatening to shoot them. He also pointed a gun at a negro woman with a child in her arms and is al- < legged to have fired several shots through the house. He was further charged with having threatened to shoot a white woman.
 Hall made no attempt to molest any of his victims or rob them. but con- fined himself to asking them questions relative to a ,craps game in which it is supposed he had been engaged pre- vious to starting out on his rampage. The wea pons he carried was a .45 Colt and .32.20 Colt. both of which were loaded. He was fined $100 In two cases, for presenting a loaded gun and $50 for disorderly conduct, total of S250. The general opinion is that he was drinking heavily or that he was temporarily in sane, previous to this outbreak he had borne good reputation.
