DAYS DO|NGS IN
THE COUNTY COURT
NEGRO SENTENCED AND FINED
FOR TRANSPORTING WHlskEY
BURGLARY CASE CONTINUED.

4 negro, commonly known around
town as Snowfall" was given thirty
days and fifty dollars and costs this
morning in the county court for
transporting whiskey.
SNOWFALL" was drayman. driving
wagon for Waddie Hill, he went
over to the southeast part of town.
and hauled box of whiskey to
ano,h portion of the town for one
of the whiskey vendors.
On account of this being his first
offense, and he having a large family,
the court gave him good lecture,
and imposed the lowest penalty, tell
ing him that any drayman or other
person unlawfully hauling whiskey
around town here for these whiskey
peddlers, would hereafter be treated
just as the peddler himself, and
would be given a penalty that he
would not soon forget.
County court yesterday heard the
examining trial of Guy Lindsay and
Chapel Guerrin. for burglarizing the
store house of John Mulkey, near
Mulkey, Oklahoma, on last Saturday
night. After hearing all the proof, the
court continued the case until the
18th of this month, for the purpose
of enabling the state to find other
witnesses.
Lindsay was also arrested yesler-
day for selling whiskey on the same
night of the burglary of the store.

FIVE GOOD BOUTS PROMISED
THE FANS BY THE MANAGE.
MENT.

The Ardmore Athletic club will
stage good card next Tuesday night
at the club rooms on South Washing.
ton street.
The principal event will be the ten
round go between Harry Beason OF
Denver and Frank Monella of Mime
apolis. Beason has been seen in ac-
tion in this city and has a host of ad-
mirers, Monella comes well recon-
mended, and has a good record to his
credit.
There will be four good preliml-
naries, the principal of which will be
a six round bout between B. Ware
of Ardmore and Fighting Hudson of
Enid. Ware has been hanging the
Indian sign on everything of the
Ethiopian race in this vicinity at 175

namely, in the first round and not
much of that.
The club has staged nothing but
high-class cards this season and the
patrons of the club are more than
satisfied with the management.

JUDGE RUSSELL
GRANTS INJUNCTION
AGAINST OWNERS OF BUILDINGS
WHERE 1T is ALLEGED WHlS-
KEY is BEING SOLD.

The county attorney scored several
victories in the district court room on
Friday and Saturday, in the matter of
obtaining injunctions against the oc-
cupants and owners of certain build
ings. wherein whiskey was alleged to
have been sold.
The first case up was State VS.. Bob
Braziel and Moran Scott, Mr.. Scott be-
ing the owners of the building, near
the Santa Fe depot and Mr.. Braziel
the tenant.
Mr.. SCOTS testimony was the eff
fort he made TO ascertain whether
or not Braziel was using his build
ing for the sale of liquor Mr. Scott
testified that he had received reg
istered notice from the county attor-
ney acquanting him with these facts,
and that he thereupon went TO his
premises and asked the defendant
Braziel if he was engaged in selling
liquor, and Mr.. Braziel said No"
that he looked through his building
and saw no whiskey, therefore, he had
no information to cause him to be-
liove liquors We're being sold therein.
The next case was that against w.
J. Wilson and John Stump and J. b.
Spragins.
Mr.. j. b. Spragins, the owner of the
building was the first witness. He
testified, in substance, that he did not
know who his tenant was, and did not
know who paid the rents, or who was
occupying the building. That he had
received rents from various persons,
never from w. J. Wilson that he had
often seen Wilson in the building,
and that is as far as he could go and
that he did not know now who his
tenant was.
The testimony on behalf of the
state was that these places had the
reputation of being joints, that the
! information had been brought home to
! the owners of the buildings, and that
whiskey and beer was constantly kept
and sold on said premises.
1t did not take Judge Russell long
to grant the injunctions asked for by
the state, and those who heard his
opinion will not soon forget 1t.
The judge said in substance:
NO owner of a building can blindly
shut his eyes, while | am judge, ant
permit his premises to be used sucf
as the testimony shows these build
ings have been. 1t seems strange tt
me, that the owners go there every
month after their rents, and wher
everybody else knows and the reputa
tion from every witness is that they
are joints, yet the owner seems moi
to know anything about it. This
whiskey traffic must stop, and as dis
trict judge, ! am going to go as far
as my judicial authority will permit
ME to stop it, if l have to close the
doors of every business house in Ard
more. If / were the chief of police
or sheriff of this county, | could ant
would stop it, and that too in mighty
short order. These whiskey vendor.
and law violators need not expect t.
receive any encouragement from me
This court is going to the limit O
the law, and if they want any relic
they must go to the supreme court
They had as well know that law is il
the saddle in this court, and shal
prevail"
