Superior Court. 1 The attention of the Court is still occu pied with the case of the Bank of New Hanover vs. Williams Black aud Com pany.

Lemonade Jim is still cooling off in the guard house, and the Mayor has not touched his case vet. Jim's offence we believe was in besieging , people on the outside ot the -hotels and trying to carry them to , a place to buy eome-ting ; in other words Jim wa3 drumming.. The difference between Jim and the seble hero arrested last night, is that one went inside of the hotels and insulted people,and then came outside audiusnlted them too, while the other, the lemonade vender, only made himself a first-class nuisance by being in the way cn the outside of the hotels I Phoenix.

A proof ofjthat fact is that any person afflicted, can get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try its superior effect before buying the regular size at 75 cents.
