The trial of G. Kuennen, charged with intoxication, which has been hanging fire for some time, finally came up in police court Tuesday, and after hearing the testimony the jury promptly acquitted the prisoner. Kuennen was arrested on Center street several weeks ago by Officer Choate, who declared he was wobbling in his walk and showed evidence of being drunk. Choate put him in jail, and eye witnesses testified he used more violence than is necessary in handling a weak and decrepit old man. It was shown at the trial that Kuennen was not intoxicated, and that his unsteady gait is the result of chronic rheumatism, from which he suffers. City Attorney Ames appeared for the prosecution and H. V. Welsel defended the prisoner. Kuennen is connected with St. Catharine's orphanage, and it is reported that a suit for damages may follow.

The rigorous climate of the blizzard belt is sending many pioneers from there to Southern California...
