degree. An expedition was sent out in the

Lake Superior depot The police followed the
indications, and found ten tramps hidden in
the transfer house. They were captured,
brought before Judge Flint and sentenced to a
fine of $40 each, for vagrancy. If the fine had
been ten cents, there was one in the lot who
could have liberated the gang, if the court had
taken trade dollar at its face and weight
value As it was, they snapped their $40 fine
of for thirty days sojourn in the county
jail, with the imposition of work added, with |
the understanding that twenty-four hours
would be given them to get out of town. They
voted to git.
