— i «—• * Local Man Charged , Over Gun Incident Manuel Mireles, 41-year-old resident of 727 N. Eleventh St., is being held in the Adams county tail on three misdemeanor charges, involving an episode with a gun Saturday in Decatur. Mireles 1 was arraigned in the Adams circuit court- this morning on charges of drawing, aiming, and carrying a weapon. The charges are three separate counts, and all misdemeanors. The local man was apprehended Saturday afternoon by the city police after an affidavit had been signed by Dionesi Sema of Middlebury, 0., who was threatened with a small pistol by Mireles. Mireles explained to Jildge Myles F. Parrish this morning that he has already secured the services of an attorney, and he is expected to enter a plea within the next few days. The incident occurred at a local tavern, when Mireles apparently became mad at Serna, and bis brother, Robert Serna of Decatur. He threatened them with the pistol, but it was taken away from him. He later returned with a shotgun and again threatened the two men. Helpful Tool A small magnet kept in the sewing machine drawer will be a big help in finding the lost needle on the floor.
