■"The case of Dotp Boyd.” called the prosecutor in city court. But Boyd did not answer. The policemen on the case looked around the courtroom. 'There he is back there In the courtroom,•' said one of the policemen. "I don’t know whether he's asleep or drunk.” The man next to Boyd gave him a punch In the ribs and finally Boyd ambled up before the judge. He was a colored men of extreme leisure. When he held up his hand to be sw-orn, he

yawned.

The arresting policemen testified that Boyd had been arrested for drunkenness in Chadwick street Saturday midnight. "He was barefooted and he aroused the whole neighborhood yelling for a match.” said the policeman. Boyd leisurely told the judge that he was acting as a night watchman. He said, with another yawn, that he had taken his shoes off to go to sleep by » fire and when he woke up. he found the fire out and he went out to get a. match. Boyd's chances for being turned loose ; looked good for a while—hut he couldn't! stop talking. He was still talking after: the Judge fined him $1 and costs. Then j Boyd took a seat on the prisoners’ bench! and resumed bis snoose. ‘

Little Stories of Daily Life

Draw Straws. lit didn’t make any difference to George Kirchoff, a“ Knox county farmer, and Miss Margaret Myers, of Odon, Just who pronounced the words that made them man and wife. Accordingly they drew straws to see whether J. C. Sheley or J W. Kellams. both justices of the peace in Washington, should marry them. After getting their license the couple made it known to the deputy clerk that they wished to be married Immediately. They were informed there w r ere two justices in the courthouse and for them to pick their choice. “We don’t know either of them,” said Kirchoff, -go it doesn’t make any difference which one gets the job.” “Well you might draw straws to decide it,” said the clerk s deputy. “Sure, that’s as good a way as any,” Kirchoff replied. "Fix up your straws.” Justice Sheley is the tallest man and it was decided that he would be represented by the longest straw while Justice Kellams had to take what was left The drawing was held and Kirchoff pulled the long straw. Justice Sheley performed the ceremony at once in the office of the clerk. “It Is Fatal, Doctor?” Evan B. Stotsenburg, attorney-general, once was trying a lawsuit in New Albany. A colored physician was called as a witness for the other side to establish certain medical evidence. This colored man had come to New Albany with a diploma written in some foreign language, and no one ever had taken the trouble to determine whether it was genuine, Stotsenburg said in telling the story. Mr. Stotsenburg crossexamined the witness thus: "You say you are a physician—a medicine physician?” Stotsenburg asked. "Yes, sir,” replied the colored man. "You know all about diseases—all kinds?” "Yes, sir, oh, yes, sir.” "Do you know the disease called E Pluribus Unum?” "Yes, sir, yes, sir. I knows that disease, sir.” "Well, then, Just explain to this Jury what that disease is,” Stotsenburg or-

dered.

"It’s a disease of the kidneys, suh, a disease of the kidneys,” the physician

told the Jury.

Explosion Causes Church to Burn. [Special to The Indiana poll* News] COLUMBUS, Ind., April ll.-The explosion of a gasoline lighting system in the German Methodist church, on White creek, west of this city, resulted in the destruction of the building by fire. The loss is estimated at $3,000, with little Insurance. A few seats and the church organ were saved. Alfred Behrman, who was working on the system, lighted a match to test the lights and there was an explosion. Behrman was severely burned about the hands and face.

It is admitted by Chief Perrott that he designed the new "stars” which policemen will wear after today to designate them as policemen. The shield, which has frequently been compared with a popular stove trade mark, will be dlscarded and the six pointed star with the city seal thereon will be used. Pleaded Guilty By Mistake.
