"Beau Brummel" - a bit of a dandy. I imagined him in Court in spats, wing tips, fedora etc

I have been checking out "Chronicling America" - https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov


The same paper, 20 Sep 1897 reported the appearance of his son in court  "Charles J Dunn ........ known on the east side as Beau Brummel. ..."

Interesting.
What's the name of the paper?
Can't find it
