“Shorty’’ Out For An Airing; . Didn’t Want to Return to Jail.
"Shorty” Adams, who seemed about rational for several days, was taken out of the jail Wednesday for a little fresh air and also to a barbershop for a shave, the- first he had received since he was brought here from Danville, following his attack of insanity. He enjoyed the outdoor walk and when it came time to return ta the jail he was not ready to go and rebelled against his attendants taking him back. He struggled and wrestled with them, but was soon overpowered and taken back to the jail. Marshal Mustard and True Woodworth had him in charge. “Shorty” seems rational about all the time now and is cans-* ing no trouble at the jail, but he would like mighty well to be at liberty. Jelly fingers, simply delicious, that be fine, 10 cents a dozen at Fate’s.
