FINED FOR SELLING TOBACCO
\ South Side Grocer Taken Into
Court on Charge of Selling
Tobacco to a Minor.

Because James Weddle either for
got about the state law Of selling
tobacco to minors or did not known
about it, he vas hailed into court
late "Wednesday afternoon on the
charge Of selling tobacco in violation
Of the law. He appeared before
Justice Markham and with the con.
victing evidence before the court a
fine of SIS vas imposed on Mr.. Wed
die, which be paid. He was quoted
as saying that he would sell no more
tobacco in his store hereafter.
The complaint in the case was
filed by Mrs. Elizabeth Sprv, whose
little 9-year-old son bought the
tobacco at the Weddle store but it is
not understood that he was buying 1t
for his own use. On learning that
her son had made the purchase Mrs.
Spry explained the situation to
States Attorney Spangler about it
and he advised her what the law
was, and Mrs. Spry put the machin-
cry OF the law into Immediate action
by swearing out a warrant.

city has been called upon to pay
a fine for selling tobacco to a minor.

quensiy done before, but Mrs. Spry
was the only person who did not
stand back and decline to make a
complaint.
Mr.. Spangler stated that the law
prohibits the sale Of cigarettes to boys
under 81 years Of age. and the selling
of any kind Of tobacco to boys under
l6 years Of age, and that any viola
tions that are reported to him with
tue proper complaint will be attended
to on his part.
1t is not understood that Mr..
Weddle sold the tobacco himself. but
by one of the girls in the store, and
that the boy was sent in by some
travellers in a buggy who didn't want
to climb out to 90 into the store,
and asked the bov to make the pur-
chase as he was standing near the
store.

Coming to Mitchell during the week

Judge William Taft, the republican
candidate for president, at the corr

A very vigorous campaign will be
made to accomplish the desire, and
there is a possibility that it will be
successful. Letters will be written
bv all members of the republican
state central committee and very
likely the candidates on the state
ticket. These will be forwarded in
due time to National Chairman
Hitchcock through Senator Kit.
tredge. The senator is a warm
personal friend of Judge Taft's and
he will doubtlessly use his personal
influence IN the direction to secure
the consent of the national chairman
to send the presidential candidate
out this way.
Indications so far In the outline
OF the republican campaign do not
point to Judge Taft making any
trip either east or west, but If he is
to travel w the country at all, it
is believed that Mitchell will have
a good chance to secure the distin-
guished gentleman.

Arthur S%outhgate had never married.

women, something would surely give
way. So he chung to single life as the
lesser Of two evils.
On this particular Sunday afternoon
he was chatting with several of his
best friends In the smoking room of
the Royal club. Pulling out his watch.
he saw that 1t was 5 o'clock-just two
hours late for his engagement with
Irene Arlington.

the other end Of the line. By-by,

Jumping in his waiting car, he urged

he rang the bell Of the Arlington home

way out Of all troubles. Irene seemed
bored by his explanations and inter

The auto flashed through the city

crowds were left behind on the popu-

DECLARES BREWERY
DOES NOT EXIST

Lost, a brewery. But C. A. Porter
says it never existed, and in the prog
ress of a suit filed in the superior
court yesterday will try to prove his
contentious and incidentally secure
$1,000 damages from A Hansen, who he
declares -defrauded him of that amount.
Porter claims Hansen represented
himself to be president of the Hum
boldt Brewing company of Arizona
said to be located at Eureka, Cal. Han
sen, he alleges, said he had invested
$780, 900 in the brewery, which state
ment Porter declares is false; that. no
such investment was made and no such
brewery existed. On September rs.
1906, Porter says he was induced to
buy zoo shares of the capital stock,
paying therefor $1,000, and he wants 1t
back.
