and fined $50 and costs by Judge Wes-

forts to proving an unsavory reputa-
tion against Ida May Green, sister of
Mrs. Johnson who was arrested at the
house Monday. A number of neigh
bors also testified that the house had
a bad reputation in the neighborhood
although nothing definite was known
against its character, the talk mostly
being surmise and gossip.
Johnson had no witnesses beside
In his testimony he declared
that Ida May Green was the sisteY of
his wife and lived with them only
when she was out of work as she had
no other home. He also declared that
he had never known anything derog-
atory to her character beyond the two
incidents of her arrest at his home.
The case was appealed.

EGGS DROP 8 CENTS.
Warm Weather Made the Hens Lay.
Butter is Scarcity Now.

Eggs have come down within the
reach of everybody again. During the
past week the price dropped three
cents and the stores have been much
more literally supplied with nice,
fresh eggs than before. The warm
weather agreed with the hens and
they started in laying eggs with a
will, which forced off the price at
once and made it easy to get fresh
eggs. If the cold weather continues
long, however, the store-keepers look
for an advance in the price again as
the hens are susceptible to cold wealth
er. Eggs are now IA cents a dozen.
Otherwise farm produce has re-
mained about stationery in price, al
though there is an increasing scarcity
in country butter. Ever since the hol-
iday advanced price paid by the cream
cries for cream the farmers have Civ
en- less attention to churning and there
has been a corresponding scarcity of
country butter.
