Saloon Man Paws Fine.

Bison.-Some jokers turning back
the hands of a clock in a Bison saloon
cost Cliff Larsh, bartender in the place,
a fine of $50. Larsh was arrested on
the charge of keeping the saloon open
after hours provided by law. The sa-
loon should have been closed at 8
O'Clock in the evening, and was found
open 40 minutes later. Larsh pleaded
not guilty and demanded a jury trial.
The evidence introduced in his behalf
showed that jokers in the saloon turn
ed the hands of the clock back 40 min
utes while Larsh's back was turned
and that the bartender closed the sa-
loon by the clock, but in reality kept
the place open beyond the legal closing
time. In view of the technical viola
ton he was fined the minimum sum.
