ed on King Agreeing to
Leave Town.
King Always Headed For
Police Station on Getting
Drunk.

Mayor Walters handed out his first
heavy fine this morning when Charles
Killing, n painter. formerly employed at
the Alderman piano factory, appeared
before him, charged with resisting an
officer. King pleaded guilty TO the
charge and was fined 800 and costs
and sentenced TO serve thirty days in
the Dayton workhouse but the fine.
costs and sentence were suspended by
the mavor providing King would con-
sent TO leave the city for his home in
Jamestown. N Y. He was arrested
last Wednesday night by officer
Shrock. He had been drinking.
King had moment OF irresolution
but finally chose to leave for his
home rather than serve out the fine,
costs ana sentence in the workhouse.
lie was released.
During his stav i'm the city, Killing
has been the source of much trouble
for the police. Last summer, he be-
came intoxicated. resisted officer Nc
Collv when the latter placed him un-
der arrest and was badly beaten over
the head with the officers club. He
has been arrested "a number Of times
and has served two terms i'm the Day
ton worlthouse. Ex-Mayor Setter or
dered him from the city no less than
three times but. like the proverbia
cat. he always came back.
Killing has been peculiar character
about the police station. After TAX.
ing on a certain amount Of liquor, he
ALWAYS headed for the station for tn,
purpose OF informing the officers what
a peaceable man he was; how he never
created n disturbance and was at al
times law abiding citizen. Invariably
his uninteresting discourse would enc
with demand for mythical pair o
overalls and three dollars. which, h,
imagined were taken from him by tn,
police after one of his sprees. Follow
, ing this. he would be ousted from tn,
station and told TO go home but, un
willing TO heed the admonition of tn,
police. he would be found In the city
prison a few hours later. fgMt
