MANY LAWYERS CROOKED.

Louis Cady, aged 20. employed by
Lee Il Cady. will be careful how he
testifies In court after bis experience
with Justice OFT, Thursday morning.
Cady was In court defending q suit
brought by Miss MABEL Hare, a pretty
milliner, who sued TO recover 500
she had loaned him. Miss Hare had
several witnesses to prove that the
loan had been made, and also wit.
nesses who saw Cady pay her $3.50 on
account Notwithstanding this evil
dence, the young man took the stand
and boldly declared that he had never
borrowed cent from her, and had
never had any business transactions
Of any kind with the young woman.
Judge OFT explained to the young
man the serious nature of his oath
and OF the danger OF a perjury charge.
but he persisted in saying that he
had never borrowed a cent from the
plaintiff.
do you think the girl is insaner'
Judge OFT asked. What possible rea-
son could she have bringing this case
unless you owed her the money"
"Oh. this Is just her way of getting
even with me for quitting her." he
answered.
Judge OFT was convinced Cady was
not telling the truth, and ordered his
deputy to escort the young man TO
Prosecutor Shepherds office. When
Cady was confronted by the prosecu-
tor he commenced to whine and split
hairs. admitting that he had received
the money, but said he had not prom
ised to pay 1t back at any certain
time.
How about the money | spent TAX
ing her to suppers?" he asked.
You never took me to supper with
out borrowing the money from me to
pay the BILL" Miss Hare spoke up.
You were stranger In town, and
felt sorry for you, and helped you all
| could until you got work"
Il am convinced the man IL liar"
Mr.. Shepherd said. and II you say so,
Mr.. OFT, will order him locked up,
Then Cady began to whimper and
begged for mercy, declaring that he
would never appear In court again
and would repay the money. He was
let go with q warning"
"All the perjury is not committed
by Witnesses" Mr.. Shepherd said in
commenting uSon the case. II have
had at least Is lawyers before me for
crooked work since took ONCE, and
there are at least 40 lawyers In De-
troit who should be disbarred from
practice"

SLOT MACHINES SEIZED.
Five of the Devices Captured Last
Night by Local Officers.

Five slot machines were seized last
night in several Hancock saloons by
Chief OF Police Thor and officer
Wright who made the raid upon COM
plant of c. II. Rutledge, of Ehpem-
ing. representing the state Anti-Saloon
League. Mr.. Rutledge made a round
of the saloons OF the city Saturday
night and located the machines. and
yesterday afternoon he caused war
rants to be issued by Justice Eichkern
against A. l.. Levy and the Cubs bill
Hard parlors Of Hancock. The machines
were taken to the Office of Justice
Eichkern.
The incident is another phase of the
movement started in Hancock for the
enforcement Of certain laws, one fea-
ture of which was the recent campaign
against Sunday exhibitions at picture
houses. resulting in one defendant be-
ing found not guilty and the case
against another dismissed. Rev. Man
dus Barrett stated yesterday that the
movement will not be stopped, that II
further violations occur arrests will
follow.

Meeting AT CITY HALL
TO Plan FOR CHRISTMAS
HANCOCK SOCIETIES TO DISCUSS
UNITED ACTION TONIGHT.
Organizations Have Expressed inten-
tention TO Send Representatives.

The invitation extended 10 the yari-
Gus fraternal organizations of the city
to send representatives to a meeting to
be held this evening at the Hancock
city hall, has been well received and
responses have been received by those
at the head OF the movement which
indicate interest and enthusiasm for
good representation present The plan
for united action in the distribution
Of Christmas cheer to the needy and
unfortunate will be discussed and sug-
gestions received and II is probable
that the outome will be the appoint
of the arrangements for seeing that
no deserving family or person is left
without a Christmas donation OF good
things. Ii is believed that by securing
the corporation OF the various socie-
ties, many Of which annually make a
practice of dispensing dinners and pro-
visions at Christmas, will result I'm a
more systematic distribution. and will
avoid the duplication OF donations.
Captain Simpson OF the Salvation
Army, which organization is now COL
Letting a fund for Christmas dinners
for the poor, called upon A. Il. Mac
Donald yesterday to discuss the matter
which the societies are considering
and to talk over the probabilities of
the contemplated action conflicting
with the work of the army. The cap
tain is making personal Investigations
of every case called 70 his attention
and welcomes any recommendations
relative TO parties to whom Christmas
aid will be acceptable. but at the
same time he is taking care that per-
sons able to help themselves are not al
lowed to graft their Christmas sup
plies. He has had many years ex-
perience in handling the annual dis
tribution Of Christmas baskets and is
an expert in ascertaining where they
will do the most good.
He suggests that the societies raise
the money or purchase the supplies
and turn them over to the army for
distribution, together with lists OF
names. believing that I'm this way all
will be taken care of and no one will
receive more than they are entitled to

IN GOOD WRESTLING BOUT
FINNISH LION WINS IN TWO
STRAIGHT FALLS.
match Fast From Start TO Finish and
Crowd Gets Moneys Worth.

Fred Pllakon, advertised as "The
Finnish Lion" last night defeated
rred sampson, "The German Hercu-
les In TWO straight falls at the Ker
redge theater, taking the first in for
'y-eight minutes. and the second in
Twelve. a good crowd witnessed the
hatch and those present were of the
opinion that they had gotten their
moneys worth and that the contest
was on the level I'm every respect.
sampson was heavier than Pilakoff by
about forty pounds. Both men show
ed much skill, but the lighter weight
OF Pilakoff seemed TO carry with it
greater ability that enabled him to
wriggle out from any dangerous posi-
lions, and his strength was quite equal
to that OF his larger adversary. At
times both men seemed dispose to use
rough tactics but timely word OF
caution from Referee Olson caused
them to desist.
Every hold known to the profession
was brought into play during the first
bout, and finally Pilakoff pinned
SIMPSONS shoulders to the mat and
hold him there, the fall taking just
forty-eight minutes and twenty eight
seconds.
The second bout was shorter Plla-
kon taking only twelve minutes to get
his man pinned To the mat Some OF
the eDCctatOrs nj thp ringside who
were seated close to the participants,
disagreed with the referee and declar-
ed that Simpsons shoulders We're not
on the mat, and Sampson mad a sim
liar statement to the crowd. But the
general sentiment was with Referee
Olson and the decision Is regarded as
fair one.
Pilakon showed considerable i'm
provement since his match with
Sampson here in November. his train
ing at Duluth having apparently bene-
fitted him. His weight was 215, while
Sampson weighed in at 265.
Upon the conclusion of the match
challenge for the winner was read
from Jess Petersen and one from ia
cob Hill of Ontonagon challenging
either Iehto or Pilakoff for the Fin
nish championship.
A preliminary match, Cornish style
between John Clark of South Range
and Young Chapman of Trimountair
resulted in a draw.
