There - was nothing outlandish committed, notbinr that savors of anarchy or. monocracy, but :" Just slit. In Its pure and unadulterat ed , form. V The ; colored. . population suffered largely from the stalklngs of the Infernal soda, and whiskey was the best bait which he pulled upon the old-time sinners.- The desire-to take revenge was likewise Implanted In soms breasts and one or two fights resulted, hut the great gleaning was " from the field of rocn and rye. Not the least among the victims Is John Brown, colored, who has a ', . name for being one of the slickest blind tigers In this midst Again Brown tailed to conceal one crack In his clandestine work, and .

A window was un done and the trie seated themselves with the good leavings in the eating . house. Horace accuses them of lar ceny. . Under the impression that within ' the next oayr, tne mirsiy popula tion would do Its maximum drinking on account of the bars which will be put up sgainst prescriptions and drug tores, John Watson, colored, decided to lay in a short supply of fta'.Ubury liquor and he got caught. Watson - had In his possession at the time of arrest t 1-2 gallons of the stuff which the State doesn't like, and the officers nabbed bim for violating the law which regulates the quantity allowed a man.

Ordinarily, ,,97" Is charged with selling liquor, fighting somebody else's husband, or whomso ever comes In her path which Is neith er straight nor narrow. This time It 1s for stealing liquor. Bob Caldwell, colored, alleging that she deprived him of a two-gallon Jug which he prised ery highly In these times of severe drought. This Is an extremely small offense In the estimation of Alice end She spent the day quietly and with apparent peace wit;, the world. What may prove to be th most serious esse of the morning's session of the court Is that of Ed Maxwell, who stands charged with a secret as sault upon John Harris with a 'reeser.'l Maxwell ibeceme possess ed of 111 feelings against Harris and rather than undergo the dangers of n open, face-to-face encounter, he chose to tackle him unawares. He slashed his enemy considerably, hut the danger "period has passed with him and com to Maxwell. Frank Foster, colored, la next on the roll, and he Is charged with an actual , selling of whiskey. Foster has the habit and he can't help u si long as tl.e chances are that he will rot be sent to the roads for more then three months or fined more than $25. Arch Caldwell became overfilled with alcoholic Iniquity Saturday night, but was sorry for It yesterday. He and the court will talk over the sit uation this- morning.

A maximum of Interest centres about the hearing-on account1-of the fearsome rumors -which have been In circulation since Friday morning, when Mr. Haywood made his first visit of Inspection to Mr. Bennett's slaugn ter pen. - A "visit of Inspection'' Is hardly the proper term to use," for If the stories In circulation be true he simply, walked in, turned around, paused for about a fraction of a sec ond and then hurried back to the city as fast as he could go. A warrant was the Immediate result. The ethers fol lowed In quick succession. It- is stated jon good autnorlty that Warrants wlir be dwviif up and Issued against several other well-known butdhers to-day so thst practically the entire- fraternity -will .be.
