MAYOR WITNESSES
ONE-ACT COMEDY
Man and Woman Have a Ver-
bal Combat Over A
Rabbit Cage

A one-act comedy, which might
have been entitled Much Ado About
Nothing" was staged in police court
Wednesday morning, when Oscar
Smith, colored, and Mrs. John Nc
Kinney, also colored, held a verbal
combat over a rabbit cage.
According to Oscar, he had been
rooming at the Mckinney home on
Water street and while there he had
built large rabbit cage which cost
nearly $685. When he left he claim
ed the cage, but it was refused him.
This, it is said, started all of the
trouble and when Oscar returned to
get it, Mrs. Mckinney is alleged to
have threatened Oscars life by point
ing a revolver at his head. Unoffic-
tally, Chief Parker was inclined to be-
lieve that Oscars life was never in
danger while the gun was pointed to-
wards his head.
Mrs. Mckinney stoutly denied that
she had ever pointed a revolver, at
Smith, but that he had gone into her
home and picked it UP from the table
saying:
leila, am going to kill myself and
I want you to hold my hand while l
do it,"
Evidently Oscar is very romantic,
but nevertheless, Mrs Mckinney re-
fused to do it and Oscar still lives.
After both sides had been heard, the
court informed Smith that he should
stay away from the Mckinney home
and that IL he still desired his rab-
bit cage he should apply to one of
the local justices of the peace and
obtain 1t in the legal way.
