GEORGE WAGNER RECEIVED Sc
WE'RE BEATING AT THE HANDS
OF MRS. ANDERSON FOR GET
TING HER SON DRUNK-VAG
ALSO PlNCHED.

When arraigned before Police Mag
istrate Miller this morning, George
Wagner, a transient, told the tale Of
getting a terrible beating from a wo-
nan He entered a plea Of guilty to
the charge Of being drunk and SEN
tence was suspended against him, pro-
viding he would leave the city. He
promised to make himself scarce.
Wagner met a young nan named
Anderson yesterday afternoon on the
street, and invited him across the
creek where they slipped the flowing
intoxicants from across the bar and
soon they were fairly well loaded up.
About 9 o'clock Wagner and Anderson
decided to go home, and managed to
navigate across the south bridge to
Anderson's home, the place where the
real trouble started.
When the pair arrived at their des-
tination, a lengthy set of stairs led
from the sidewalk down to the house.
This was their Waterloo, as young
Anderson overlooked a step and took
a spill and carne down on his ear at
the bottom. The racket attracted the
attention of the mother Of young An
derson who came rushing from the
house and sighting Wagner, who was
the older of the two, administered
a shower Of lefts and rights to his
face with the result that both Wag-
ner's eyes were darkened.
The arrest followed and Wagner
this morning looked as though he came
out of a cyclone.
Pat Murphy was arrested last night
charged with vagrancy. This morning
he entered a plea of guilty to the
charge, and an eight-day sentence was
imposed on him. Sentence was post
poned against him providing he would
make a 'skidoo" from this locality.
He did.
