Some little excitement was caused yesterday by Thos. Burton, who, after becoming thoroughly intoxicated, “start ed in,” as he said, “to take the town.” When refused liquor at High & Taylor’s saloon, he threatened to “hurt some one” and w as quickly relieved of a re volver. He then went down the street toward the dejsit and managed to get a Winchester rifle which he hid for future use. City Marshal Jones compelled him to give up the rifle to prevent trouble. Both the weapons that Burton had are now in possesion of Mr. Jones.
