Police Court
Three Indians were up this morning
for drunkeness. Philipp Jack, Peter
Painkiller, and Barney Wilson. All
three plead guilty and were tided the
usual amount. Peter Painkiller at first
declared “1 was just standing up.”
After considerable work and patience
on the part of the mayor and officers,
they are getting next to those lellows
raising so much develment about the
depot. "Scotty” is up before the
mayor this morning on several differ-
ent charges, one tor being intoxicated,
one for "disturbing the peace,” and
another for using indecent language.
It seems that two different gangs have
been taking lanterns from the railroad
company and Scotty belongs to one of
them. The city had to make good
seventy-five lanterns a while back and
now a number more are missing. It
appears that the boys do not intend to
steal the property but juet get to feel-
ing lively and go in for a little fun.
Misplacing of “red-lighta,” is however
a dangerous practice and the guilty
ones should be brought to time with-
out delay. Scotty refuted to dead
guilty, and witnesses will have to be
‘secured.

turned loose for lack of sufficient
evidence.
