|NT0X|CAT|ON CASES
IN THE CITY court

The three men, Mason Rhodes, R. e,
White, Oscar Jenkins, who were ar
rested by Patrolman Briggs and De-
tectives Ross and Hunt on South Sew
enth street Saturday night for being
drunk and disorderly. were given hear
ings in Judge Hays court this morn
ing on complaints filed by the chief
of police. The first two named en-
tered pleas Of guilty to charges of be-
ing drunk and the last named to a
charge Of fighting. Each was fined $40
with costs of SO, which they paid. 1t
seems that Jenkins, who was in that
vicinity, had some words with the
other two and got into fight with
one OF them. AS near as could be
learned the booze the men had was a
concoction of alcohol and cider, which
seemed to produce rather serious eff
fects in this case. The trio created
considerable disturbance and called out
a number of the residents of that sec
ton of the city. The police made a
hurried trip to the scene of the trou-
BILE and picked the men up before they
got away. A case was also filed by
the chief against l.. Grosiskey for be-
ing drunk on the streets last night, he
having been arrested by Detective Ross
He entered a plea of guilty in Judge
Hays court this morning and was fined
$40 and costs.
