COURT Or GENERAL SESSIONS.

The court met yesterday morning for the purpose
during the week.
THE roR0ER OF RAILROAD TICKETS SENT TO THE
STATE PRISON.
VIM. G.. Wright, who pleaded guilty to uttering
forged railroad tickets, was the first prisoner ar
raigned at the bar. After few words from his
counsel District Attorney Garvin said that he was
sorry TO say the defendant did not occupy an env-
able position before the court. He was thirty-four
years old and had had suniclcnt experience to know
better than to engage In orgeres OF the description
for which he was indicted. There was no reason,
therefore, why the sentence should be less than the
extreme penalty OF the law
REMARKS THE CITY JUDGE
William q. wright concur with the District At
forney in the remarks which he has made The
Grand Jury indicted you for forgery. The indict-
ment contained two counts, one alleging forgery in
that crime. Had you been tried you would have
been found guilty Of forgery in the third degree.

expect. Your record IL bad. Grand Jury have II

similar plea few days since and who then hosIvely

City Judge was Informed OF this fact by two
police officers, the boy was persistent In DENYING
the charge that his Honor caused an investigation

deception was practised by him upon the Court
The Judge regretted that he could not send him 10

''Sea Drift, by Fadette, is an entertaining

The same house send us 'Hetty,' new

Love Me Long, cheap paper edition OF
Charles Reades romance; and 'The Philoso-

in 1929 We believe that they have never
before been translated into English, but they
are well worthy of the perusal of thoughtful

gotten up does no credit to the American
publishers

A good many of them, however, have been
seen before i'll the pages of VaRjty Fdjr, and
large proportion of the jokes appear to have
been borrowed from the same source.
From j. b. Lippincott d Co. we have
received DAISY, by the author of ''Wide,
Wide World" This is the second series of an
interesting story of the late Rebellion, by one
of the most popular writers of the day. Miss
Warner is always pure and forcible writer,
and her tictions have healthy tone, while at
the same time they are free from the sum-
marizing and moralizing which too often
destroy the influence of works of this class
that seek to rise above the low tone of many
of the popular novels of the day.
