speak a successful year in all depart

are ready to stay at home on the
smallest pretense.

Johnnie Manning, Merton Leach
and Jimmie Jones imbibed too freely
last Friday and as a result all we're
lodged in jail for the night. Next
morning States Attorney Cheney
appeared on the scene and the three
we're brought before Squire Wiswell
ON the installment plan. Different
stories we're related, but the Court
had reason to believe that Jones'
tale was not true. He stated that
Jamaica ginger procured of Strong Il
Foss, together with some mild stuff
got at Pease's, did the business. In
vestigation proved that he had
bought no Jamaica of Strong & Foss
and he was remanded to Jail where
he now is. Leach and Manning were
fined s. and costs, and the same be-
ing paid, they we're released, Inves-
tigation further shows that Leach
had forged two orders on the agency
and action in that regard will proba-
bly, be taken later.
