POLICECOURT NEWS Police Nab Two Last Night on Two Counts —Pleaded Guilty to One. PAID $32.60 IN FINES The Mayor Issues Statement Concerning Police Protection Tomorrow. ’Squire Stone had a sensational case this morning, Marshal Peterson having caught a pair about 11 o'clock Tuesday night along the right-of-way of the Clover Leaf somewhere near the city. Two counts were returned against the parties, but one was dismissed upon their pleading guilty to the other. Marshal Peterson saw the parties go down the railroad and followed, they stopping in the shadow of a box car. He secured Deputy Sheriff Merrica and they \eturned and made the arrests, jailing the parties until this morning. They were arraigned this morning on a charge of public intoxication and at once pleaded guilty. The man, .Tames Woods, drew SIO.OO and costs, a total of SIB.BO and the woman, Gertrude Trimble, drew $5.00 and costs, a total of $13.80, making a grand total of $32.60, which Woods paid in full. It will be remembered that the woman has been in the police court lime-light before. The mayor issued a statement Tuesday evening to the effect that four to six special police will be on duty from 12 d’clock tonight until 12 o’clock tomorrow night, and the regular officers will be in charge. He requests that any of the citizens who are molested or bothered with suspiciouslooking characters at once telephone the central office and the police call will be rung, and then notify the officer. The four regular officers will answer any call from any part of the city. Charles Woodward appeared in ’Squire Stone's court this afternoon and pleaded guilty to assault and battery on the person of Cornelius Rademaker. He was assessed SI.OO and costs, making $8.05 in all. The docket was stayed and Woodward was released. o — — POSTPONEMENT.
