Get Near a Pump and
Go Free In Court

Being IN the vicinity of a pump is
not sufficient evidence to obtain a
conviction of drunkenness in the Wash
ington police courts. On the contrary
the location of individuals in and
about a water-drawing apparatus will
be taken by the court to mean that
they are abstaining from the use Of
liquors and are practically on the
water wagon"
Anita Hill, colored. and several
friends were arraigned in the court
charged with disorderly conduct. Po-
licemen testified that the women had
zen drinking and did imitation orr
entail dances when arrested.
did you not see us drawing water
from the pump, and were we not car
rying a bucket of water homer" quer-
led Anita OF one Of the policemen who
testified against her.
When the answer came back in the
affirmative Judge Pugh decided that
the mere fact that the women were
drinking" water and the evidence
that they had been TO no other place
| for hours but the pump was sufficient
| evidence to dismiss the case.

Woman"
Mystery Not Solved

WOONsOCKET. r. l., July N.-Henri
Deslovers, who is being held for the al
legged murder of Angelo Parmentier. was
arraigned In court again today for a
preliminary hearing. The man strenu-
ously maintains that he IL guiltless of
the crime charged against him.
Beyond the arrest OF Deslovers on cir
cumstantial evidence, the authorities
have apparently made little progress
toward unraveling the mystery sur.
rounding the murder Of the ParmentieI
woman, whose headless and nude body
was found in the Blackstone river more
than a month ago.
The man Deslovers was arrested be-
cause he had lived with the woman, and
because he was reported to have been
in her company when she was last seen
alive on June I,
Where and how the murder was COM
mitted have not been determined. Ev'
cry effort of the police to discover the
head of the murdered woman has like
wise proved futile.
