SHOOTS OUT THE LIGHTS
Joe Fernett Brakeman Gets Drunk and
Starts ROugh-hOuSe

Joe Fernett brakeman while under
the influence of liquor broke into the
residence OF Miss Follett who conducts
a boarding house on the north side of
the track, Wednesday night about ten
o'clock, and after threatening her life
proceeded to shoot out the lights.
Fernett who was one of the boarders
at the place seems to have harbored an
attachment for the young lady and was
angry that the feeling was not recipro-
Gated.
Wednesday afternoon he asked her
if he might call that night but was told
that he could not and that she would
rather he would stay away for good.
He left the house only to return again
about 10 o'clock in an intoxicated con-
dition. Finding the door locked he
demanded that it be opened. Receiv-
ing no answer, he secured an ak and
battered it down.
Immediately upon coming into the
house he pulled his gun and told the
young lady that he had made up his
mind to kill somebody and it might as
we'll be her. He changed his mind
however and began shooting out the
lights.
After much persuasion he finally
handed over his gun to Miss Follett
and lay down on the bed to sleep off
his jag.
In the meantime Marshall Pratt was
notified and a warrant was issued for
his arrest. When he awoke it was to
find himself in the strong arms of the
law.
He was arraigned before Judge Grant
Thursday at two o'clock, and a fine of
$4,000 with so days Jail sentence,
was imposed.
Finding that he was short of money
the thirty days sentence was knocked
off by the judge on the condition that
he pay his fine and leave town.
An effort is being made to raise the
money among his fellow working men.

ROOM TAPPERS ABROAD
Bold Thief Enters Club Apartments and
is Caught

What Marshal Fitz terms the night
shirt parade happened the first of the
week at the Club apartments. Shirley
Burce, one of the proprietors of the
Club pool room, had just retired to
bed. Hearing some one moving out
side his room he happened to glance
at the transom and was a little surpris-
ed to see the face Of man peeping in.
Jumping out of bed, grabbing his
automatic at the same time, he roared
out loud enough to wake every occu-
pant of the place, Get out of here or
I'll shoot your eye out" The man
evidently took Burce at his word
and lost no time in getting out.
Marshal Fitz and w. E. Moore were
also awakened by Shirley's outcry and
came flying down the hall with artillery
enough to stop Jap regiment. A
light snow was falling and the man was
tracked to the Overland hotel where he
engaged a room. He was arrested and
locked up in Jail several hours but for
lack of evidence was turned loose. 1t
is suspected he was a member of the
May Roberts show company.
