OUT OF A WASTE CAN
 AND INTO THE JUG
Small Docket in Police Court IhS
 Morning.

"out of the waste can and into the
 jug" might be the title of a story that Anthony Domensky, of Orange street,
 could write were he inclined to
 literature. As Officer McCabe was
 patrolling his beat on Main street
 Saturday night he met Domensky,
 much the worse for imbibing freely
 of the liquor which turns sorrow to
 Joy, and vice versa. Domensky was
 finding it hard to navigate and when
 he passed a waste can he stopped,
 leaned up against 1t and then slid in.
 The patrolman pulled him out of the : waste can end took him to the sta
 tion house where he put him in the
 "jug,". in front of which there are
 iron bars. He told Judge Meskill in
 court this morning that. he was "a
 little bit drunk" whereupon he was
 fined $3.
 Calls Relative Playhouse"
 On Saturday Adam Schmidt, who
 halls from Warehouse Point, made
 an unexpected call upon his brother
 in-law, who lives on East street exten- sion. He appeared to be drunk and
 after using much abusive language and threatening to kill his sisters husband he was arrested. In police court this morning he explained to the judge that his brother in law was
 "a little 'bug-house.' '' However, his
 honor did not think that sufficient ex- cuse for his actions, especially since he fled to the attic and then fell down through the ceiling when the officers came to arrest him, so he levied a tax of $10 without costs on the hap- less prisoner.
 Denn1e McInnerny, who was ar- rested by Officer Lamphere on a charge of drunkenness, made the time worn plea of wanting "just one more chance to do right He claimed to have job which he could go to at once if liberated. Thirty days. was his portion.
 Hallam Given Fine. Robert Hallam, who boards with MT. and Mrs. Edward McDonourh. appeared in the prisoners pen this morning with one eye draped in mourning. He came home drunk Saturday night and became abusive.
 He accused the family of stealing money from him, called them all
 names and when MT. McDonough ex- postulated with him he started things, the result of which were seen today in the color of his eye All that Hallam had to say to the court was that he did not know whether he or McDonough struck the first blow. He was fined $5 each on the charges of drunkenness and assault. Stole Fathers Machine. John Myers, because he comes from good family, was let off easy by the court. He stole his fathers automobile and when arrested had 1 been operating it without a license The youth cheerfully pleaded guilty to each offense and as cheerfully told the court that he hadn't done any 1 work. except odd jobs, for four months. Judge Meskill gave him 1 lecture and imposed a fine of s1O for !, operating the machine without li- ] cense and then placed him on pro- ] bation
 i At 2:40 o'clock this morning Cap 1 tain Grace was notified that there was man in the cellar underneath I the Boston Dining Rooms. He stnt n officer to investigate, but there was l no one to be found. The police have l also been notified that the fve-years-. ! old child of Joseph Bedunis, of Terry l viile, has strayed away from East Main street where the family is visiting.
