The DisreputabIe Glass OF Petty Frauds 20
be Found In Boston.
OF the five hundred citizens of Mas
sachusetts who recently petitioned the
Legislature for law to punish those
who cheat on Sunday, or refuse after
ward TO pay for articles purchased on
that day, over one-half Of them are un-
doubtedly bakers. The members of
that trade in this city complain most
bitterly Of such actions on the part of a
number of people. They say that such
customers will rush into the shop in N
hurry call for warm bread, get IL, and
disappear, promising 20 drop in and
pay for it next day. For some reason
they rarely appear the next day, and
finally, when their bill has been pre-
sented several times, the baker informs
them that If it is not settled within a
certain date legal proceedings will be
begun. Then Is the time when the GUS
toner sees his opportunity. He laughs,
and informs the baker that II he can
collect debt contracted on Sunday TO
20 ahead, which he knows is utterly
impossible under the present laws Of
the State. 1t is not the poorer class of
people who do this, but the perBons
who usually have the money ready 10
pay their bills. Boston Post.
