POLICE NEWS

Justice Tuttle had the two incorrigibles Madame Amelia Donahue and Jerusha Corbett arraigned in his police court Thursday morning. Amelia was there for reckless participation in her diurnal drunk, and Jerusha for battering the daylights out of her neighbor’s windows down in the First Ward. The first was sent to the calaboose for a week or two on abstemious diet of bread and water, and the other was sent to the county jail to renew old acquaintances.
