One of the suddest sights witnessed in the city jail for o long time might have been noticed yesterday. It was hat of u prety little si r-old girl playing about her mother, who lay stretched out in o drunken stupor on a bench in the woman's ceil. The young miss seemed all unconscious of the situation, though she confidingly whispered to a reporter: “Mamma got that way cause she drank whisky. 1don't like whisky, but I like beer, and you In‘\l drink it whenever 1 get a chance, toc The woman Mrs here with her four band, from St. Joe Monday night i operator, and ¢ work.

A few years ago Mr. Doll bought this same strip of land for $2,200. This barguain was “'fixed’” up some days ro at a price of $75,000, and at Mr. Poli’s consenting to it, Mr. Mayne at once wrote him out a check for $1,000. Mrs. Doll, however, protested at allowing the land to go at what she considered too low r figure, and refused to sign the deed Fo- a time a law suitseemed imevitable. Yes however Mrs. Doll agreed to sign ded Mr. Mayne would pay $2,000 extra. Preferring this method of settlement to a law suit, Mr. Mayne agreed to pay the 77,000 and the transfer was made. superintendent nl the mlll\ Park Lovers' Roost.

Councilman Goodrich: athetic view of the quarvel between Jhief Butler and Jim O'Brien, and yet I felt that Jim had been treated severely enough. We fined him $70—one month’s wages—and that's making Ium ay pretty dearly for a single drunk. OBrien is not a drunkard. He is and ln-vu one of the best and most reliable firemenswe have had, and he has been so for seven- teen years. To throw him out of his position now in his old age; when he is unfit for anything else would be unjust. The fine we jimposed upon him will do more to make him ever more reliable than he has been, and even deterring some of his associates from drunkenness than lns discharge would. 1t is foliy to find perfect men.
