they would willingly go straight TO Jail
rather than meet the fate In store for
them. His Honor began I'm one OF those
low deliberate tones, which the sire en-
ploys when he tries TO convince his son
that the father suffers most from the
strap or birch rod that he is about TO
apply In the old time honored fashion.
He read THE dewy lap OF morn pours
forth a thousand peary drops TO bud a
single rose, and thus in lies few feet
ing years 2 single joy may cost your
hearts a thousand tears" The group in
the pen looked at him a little suspicious
ly. IL tears were the penalty they were
fully prepared TO liquidate, but they
rightly thought that perhaps It meant
$3.50 besides

The Justice went down into his Shakes

The old case Of Moses Levi. who was
charged last summer with using improper
language in the presence Of Miss Lena
Rosenbaum. was again postponed for

her arrival from the country. 0nd Mary
not thinking John much qualified for
sanity Offices, requested that he do not
as some ungl acious pastors do, teach
me the steep and thorny way 20 heaven
whilst. like a puffed and reckless liber-
tine, himself the primrose path Of dali
lance treads." The Justice thought that
there was a great deal Of sound sense in
Marys observation and made some re-
marks about the beam in thine own

with stealing a pair of boots from NJ.
Barker The case was clearly made out
against Lewis and after handing him
Pretty little card the Justice sent him
to jail to await a jury. The card read:
