THE CAUSE

Through which Collars, Cuffs, Shirts. etc.
become yellow and get that grayish, or
dark steel colored look, after having been
laundried but few times,
is partly due to not having been
properly washed and rinsed, BUT MOST
I;Y to the extsnsive and continued use Of
scid, cheap adulterated soaps, etc. Our
mode of laundering is different from that
Of most all others, and Is done in such a
manner that the goods remain as clear
and white as when new, neither Is there
any more wear to them than when done
in the ordinary way at home. Our work
is always uniform and satisfaction guar
anteed every time. We also promptly
call for and deliver goods free of charge.

CrRCUIT COURT.

Judge Jones, in the Circuit Court
today sentenced George Collins, the
colored youth convicted of homicide,
to sixty days in Jail, and James Dut-
ton, colored, convicted of larceny TO
six month in Jail. John Duckett, coll
ored, was convicted of keeping q
gambling house and sentenced to the
House of Correction for one year.
The Court in passing sentence up
on John Duckett said:
"You have been a persistent, def
ant and constant violator of the law.
One year ago you were convicted OF
keeping a disorderly house and then
received mild sentence with warn.
ing from the Court. Since that time
at every term of the Court you have
been arraigned upon first one charge
and then another, and though you
have escaped by the failure of juries
to agree and been once acquitted, the
proof shows that if there ever was
case which called for the strong arm
of the law, this is the one, in order to
suppress a place which Is nuisance
to the community and source of
Generalization to all the young men
who frequent visit it. You are sen.
fenced to the House of Correction for
the period of one year."
