fed that he had aided the violation
of this law to get evidence against
the woman on trial.
Still another case in which
stool appeared was an alleged
violation of the excise law. If
proven this means $500 fine or 120
days in prison. The defendant was
an Italian woman. The stool
went to her restaurant, ordered
dinner and insisted upon having
beer with it. The testimony show.
ed she had about 90 regular pa
irons, working men who bought a
case of beer between them, and she
handed it out to them as called for.
An Italian who told her to let the
man have the beer declared he
meant to give it to the "stool
