HEAVY SENTENCE FOR CURTIS
Tales of Family Tragedies Recited In
Police Court.

Police Court.
Not perhaps in the history of the
old police court has it heard the de-
tails of a family row of such bitter
ness as that of the Curtis family,
which was aired before Judge Diehl
yesterday. 1t was the trial of Ray
mond Curtis, who was arrested Sat
urday night on charge of assault and
battery upon his sister, Maggie Curtis.
Mother and son were pitted against
daughters and sisters. Characters
We're assailed, tears shed and scenes
enacted. The attorneys wrangled over
objections and counter objections. un-
til they had to be called to order re-
pestedly.
Miss Maggie Curtis testified that her
brother began the trouble by thrashing
her sister, and claimed that when she
interfered he struck her with shoe
and gave her d blow with mis- fist that
Knocked her insensible. She declared
that she and her sisters had been. run
out of the house and had TO remain
out nearly all night for fear they
would get another beating If they re-
turned. Maggie's story was corrobOr-
ated by her sisters, Eve and Pearl.
Raymond Curtis denied that he had
struck his sister and claimed that the
row had been caused by her, who, he
said, had come home at a. m. drunk
and had called him and his mother
vile names. Mrs. Margaret Wilson. the
mother. corroborated the story of Ray
mond. and declared that Maggie was
in a drunken condition at the time of
the quarrel. She declared that the
story of Eva that she had stayed out
on account of fear was a falSehOOd.
When accused Of being drunk, Maggie
burst into tears and declared the stOr-
les of her mother and brother to be
false. Her denial that she was drunk
was corrobOrated by her sisters.
The case was argued at length by
Prosecutor Schulder and Attorney
James Smith, after which Judge Diehl
found the defendant guilty and SEN
fenced him to pay a fine of $15 or
serve seventy-five days in jail. In

Why France Does Not Insist Upon

Paris, Oct. 21.-The fact that France

unsettled condition of the interior of
the country. 1t is feared that such ac-
ton might bring about the disruption

When-Where-How.

The paragraphs above show where to advertise
those below show when and how to advertise:
The following item is from Missouri paper:
"When we were publishing paper in Mt. Yer.
non, Ill.,, in 1872. on the second floor store
opened in the room under office. The senior
proprietor came up stairs and contracted for
three columns of space for twelve months, with
locals in every issue. lie remarked that it was
a snap to get into town where other men did
not advertise. The firm started out on borrowed
capital. In three years it had money enough to
start two stores, one in Sedalia and one in St.
Louis. 1t dissolved partnership and each partner
took field to himOlf. Byron Nugcnt was the
partner who made the contract. and is now the
senior member Of b. Nugent & Brother, the great
st. Louis house. He not only owns his owi,
store, building and grounds. but has erected a
nice little cottage home tnat cost him $s7, 900.
We must say that some of the old mossbacks who
were in business in Mt Vernon before Byron
Nugcnt ever saw that place and who never ad-
vertised, are still in business and grumbing
about dull trade and hard times"
The motto of the Sacramento Bee is that :
Newspaper advertising paid yesterday. it pays
today. it will pay tomorrow. It's the best plan
to advertise every day"
To advertise Just little too little is like at.
tempting to draw water from we'll when the
rope used is not quite long enough to reach the
water.
More failures result from advertising a little
too little than from advertising little too much.
