Charowhas Fined $25 for Offering Il on
Sunday.
Louis Charowhas was fined $25 yester-
day afternoon for selling cider on Sun
day. The charge of assault was dismissed
as Police Judge Ferry held that it was
the officers fault in allowing Louis to
strike the man after both men were I'M
der arrest He held also that Louis had
right to use a reasonable amount of
force in ejecting q man from his store
who had made distur bance. The third
charge against Louis Charowhas was dis
missed as the officers did not have proof
sufficient to convict him on the charge of
keeping a disorderly house.

at all it ought to be just as lawful to sell
it on Sunday as soda water or root beer
