Caution to Liquor Seizers.


a few days ago, at North Adams,
Mass, the chief constable seized a jar
ofrum and arrested the party in whose
possession it was found, for selling in
soxicating liquors. At the examina-
tion before the district judge, heswore
and testified that he had seized the
liquor, and made detailed statement
Of the fact. Hon. Shepard Thayer,
She attorney for the prisoner, asked
him If he knew it was liquor. He re-
Piled Yes, it was rum" He was then
asked how he knew it was rum, and
he replied, that he had drank some Of
it. The prisoner, who was woman,
was then called as q witness in her
own behalf, when the following ques-
lions we're put and received:
@. Did you have any liquor in your
house when the state constable called
there
Yes, I had some rum in jar.
@. How long have you had it
a. About six months.
@. Did yo1 have it to sell?
a. Oh l.no. Idon't sell liquor.
q. What did you have this rum for?
A. I kept it to wash the baby.
@. Had you ever washed the baby
in this rnrn?
A. o, yes, often Iused to turn
cut some in dish, wash the baby in
it, and then turn it back into the jar
again.
Q. Do you mean to say that this was
the same liquor Of which the state
constable drank ?
A. The very same.
There was great laughter in the
court, and the state constable declared
/: he would seize no more liquor that
was kept in a jar. Heis about the
only man in North Adams that will
take ofense if you ask him to take a
drink.

Woes Of a Wife Trader.

Ba1DaEroN, N. j., Nov. 5.-Edward
Sanderlin and his wife who isn't his
wife, are prisoners in the county Jail.
convicted to-day. At their trial it was
developed that Sanderlin and John
Reall traded wives few months ago.
All the parties to the trade then lived
in Hopewell Township.
The two men agreed to the swap in
a blacksmith-shop at Deer6eld, and
the women were willing. There was
to be no "boot," but Sanderlin swears
his wife took away barrel Of flour
when she went to Real.
On August % Sanderlin and the wo-
man he got in trade went to .Millville
and were married by the Reverend Mr..
Weatherly, who confronted and con
founded them in court to-day. Then
the woman told all about the swap, and
and caudidly informed the Judge she
s'got the worst of it. Sanderlin. too,
was disgusted with the bargain. Last
September he wrote to Reall, who was
living with the true Mrs. Sanderlin at
Allowaystown: Lets trade back
again. Real answered: cts your
own fault if you got stuck. I'm very
we'll satisfied.
"A neighbor named Miller made com
plant against Sanderlin. A CORE
spondent visited Sanderlin and the
woman in the Jail.
"Yes, We made the trade, said
Sanderlin, who was in very low spirits,
"but the woman I got didn't size up
to my expectations. If she had kept
her mouth shut in Court to-day we
would have been we'll out Of this. /

templating migration to that island.
In his report Mr.. Hanna says:
II am convinced that young men
seeking work or positions of any kind
should not come to Porto Rico Such
persons as clerks, carpenters, mechan-
les and laborers of all grades should
stay away from Porto Rico. No Amer
lean should come to Porto Rico ex-
peoting to strike it rich, and no person
should come here without plenty Of
money to pay board bills and have
enough to take them back to their
homes in the United States.
"This is small island, has popu-
lation of about million people, and
is the most densely populated country
in the world. There are several hun
dred thousand working Porto Ricans
ready to fill the vacant jobs ard at a
low price. There may come time
after the laws of the United States are
applied by Congress to this island that
this will be good place for American
capital and for Americans to do busi-
ness, but even then a man should have
plenty of money who expects to make
a business success in Porto Rico. |
