new YORK, May lo.-Does a
perfect lady ever do her house
work in bathing suit?
Magistrate O'Connor says she
does not. And just to prove it.,
he soaked Miss Mary Finn $40,
Mary, "a years old, pretty, bru-
nette, plump, and artist by pro-
fession, appeared before Magis-
trate O'Connor, attached to Po-
liceman St. Angelo. Mary's sis
ter, Margaret, was attached to
the other side of Policeman ST.
Angelo, and that limb of the law
was considerably embarrassed.
Margaret was quite conYen7
tionally dressed. But Mary's cos
tune was very fetching, 1t was
so fetching that it fetched
crowd of several hundred people
in front of Mary's home at 20
East SeVenty-eighth street. The
crowd fetched Policeman St. An
gelo, who promptly fetched Mary
and her sister before O'Connor.
It was blue bathing suit, cut
decollette, very deeollette, and
with a skirt so short that it show
ed off the most excellent plump
ness of Mays neither limbs. They |
were quite good neither limbs, and !
they were covered-more or less
by silk stockings.
When Magistrate O'Connor |
heard the riot coming into his |
court, he looked up. Having once
locked up, he kept right on a.
looking.
What's the trouble; oficer?"
