PRINCE OF DARKNESS"
GETS HIS IN COURT

George A. Papausky, t'Grand
Vizier of the Prince of Darkness"
was found guilty in Judge Ian
dis court this morning of using
the mails to defraud. His attor-
neys filed motion for a new trial.
The trial ended suddenly when
the Judge refused to allow Pa
pausky to demonstrate the eff
cacy of any of his charms" and
hypnotic abilities, in an effort to
prove to the jury that all the
claims he made in his numerous
mysterious books were based on
fact.
The maximum penalty that
may be inflicted is fine of S., 1000,
or five years in the federal prison.
'Papausky, when the jury's YER
dict was read, warned that the
wrath of the reincarnated Moses
would descend on his oppressors.
Many of his followers in court de-
clared that some miracle would
intervene to prevent him going to
prison.

Tailor Shop Robbed.

Sometime Monday night some
unknown party or parties broke
into VIM Crowder's tailor shop
and took two suits of clothes,
one which was new, belonging to
Mr.. Crowder, and another which
had been left at the shop to be
pressed, watch and some other
iewelry which was in the shop
to be sold.
The visitors entered the build
ing by cutting the screen on one
of 1.-The rear widows, breaking
the catch, and raising the win
dow. Whoever the visitors
we're, evidences show that they
ha d their wits with them. Up
on entering, lest they should be
disturbed while at their work,
and forced to beat a hasty re-
treat, they propped the back
door wide open, and in this con-
dition it remained until the next
morning.
Sheriff Martin was at once
notified of the robbery. Not a
clue could be found which in
any way would assist in locating
the guilty parties. The suppo-
sitiou is that they left town on
one of the late trains.
