What promised to be a sensational trial before Mayor Duncan this morning ended abruptly by the party pleading guilty. Henry McKinney, who was one of the fellows that raised a rumpus at the dance at Allen Wallace's house Saturday night, was before the mayor on charge of assault and battery. He entered a plea of guilty, and after Mayor Duncan administered a fatherly talk to Henry, he assessed a fine of $5 and cost, which amounted to $15 80. Another case for disturbing a public gathering.
Few, if any, will care to dispute the correctness of this observation by the Peru Chronicle. Any man can take a newspaper. It is the cheapest thing he can buy. It costs little more than a postage stamp or to send or receive a letter. What good does it do you It instructs you and your wife and teaches your children. It comes to you in calm or storm, bringing you the best news ef the neighborhood. No matter what happens it enters your door as a welcome friend, full of sunshine, cheer and interest. It shortens the long summer days and enlivens the long winter nights. It is your adviser, your informant, your friend. No man is just to his wife and children who does not give them the home paper to read.

John Lafollette was last night before Mayor Duncan, on a charge of assault and battery on the person of his niece, Mary Ann Diggs, who is 16 years old.

Mayor Duncan, gave all those interested some sound advice last night, and fined young Lafollette $1.00 and costs, which amounted to $11.56.

On Monday, Mr. F«ir took it to the country rabbit hunting, but it got under a hay— stack and did not come out. A ferret •. won't hunt rabbits when it can get chicken.
