n f $3.75. ; -
V. II. Aycocke,vcame under the
ne liead, and his case being s some
iat more aggiavatcd, his assess-
Mit was put at at $5.80.
Hugh Ellington came up and sub
tted to-the charge of violating "No

'1 exaciing upon one of his fellow
iens. and he was asked
t I I M. I

over $7.35, which he proceeded to do,4
like a "little tin soldier " ,
Klijah King, (who could by no
means claim any knowlege of the
prophet by that name) and W. H.
Moon were visitors to the Hall
last Saturday evening, charged, with
"getting together" on the street and
creating quite a disturbance. Elijah
was adjuded as being -v the whole
cause of the "misunderstanding" and
after forking over $9.15, was allow
ed to shake the dust of the
"Hall" from his heels. Moon was
allowed to go this time.
Geo. Perry, Oscar and Major Ste
gall filed in the "Hall" and submitted
to the complaints; against them,
which were for engaging ihranaffary,
and otherwise disturbing the "peace,
juiet and good order of -ythe town."
They were sorry for it, of course
after being caughtand Ferry's assess
ment was placed at $2.00, Oscar's at
$130, and upon his promise to "keep
the peaee" Major was alio wee to go.
Willis Cooke, who decided to

his buggy was bagged by Chief
High, as he slumbered, in rear of the
Laundry building and given quarters
in the "town hotel" where he; was
allowed to remjan until court opened
Monday morning. He was so peni
tent and made such fair promises'
that his assessment was made light'
