REGULAR TARTAR

AND MAkEs sUoGEsTIoN.
That Judge Hundt Taks A Jump In
Tho RIver,-Gsts Six Months
On The Hlii.

]. d. West OF Latrobe, Pa. startled
Judge Hundt and the big audience
In police court yesterday morning AZ
ter he had been asked to leave the
city and stay away. J. d. was Just in
the mood to start something and sure
enough he did that thing. He had
stated that he was the guy who would
not work, and intended TO travel about
the country and Judge Hundt. seeing
that he had a hard nut to crack. IN
vited the friend TO leace, and just as
the CHIEF was passing from the room
and to liberty he shot a wad that ex-
ploded right under the judges bench.
Pooh, Pooh, go jump In the river,
said j. D.. turning on the Judge as he
was passing away. and Oh, Jane, two
officers. cruel men, jumped for the
man on solicitation OF the judge and
he was brought back and gently ask
ed TO go to the works for six long
months, and asked IL he would not
kindly work. peeling potatoes. scrub
bling floors and such other chores.
J. ID. West was not put on this
earth TO work. and SO he refused TO
do that thing. and when he appeared
in court he endeavo-ed TO please the
audience who had come in out OF the
rain. He did that perfectly well, and
even the gentle policement were start
led. When questioned as To his hab-
its. West said, turning witha wave of
IL wasn't for fellows like me and the
othe two just here. these people here
wouldn't have any where to go this
wet morning. and you wouldn't have a
job oh. pickles. that was a horrid
blow and the audience rather enjoyed
IL, but Judge Hundt looked worried.
Some Independent Lad.
The judge told West that his i'm
preston was that he was insane or
near to 1t. aud the prisoner asked how
he could tell. and the judge said that
he didn't want and impudence and
West, very much surprised. pushed
forward as far as he could get toward
the Judge. and said. What will You
do IL | am Oh. my. that was Sc
we're blow and the Judge ordered him
10 vamoose to the outer edges OF this
great city and not return, and West
started TO leave. but as he passed
away he uttered the remark that re-
suited in his sentence.
Without a doubt the session cf
court was the most interesting from
the view of the audience that has ever
been conducted in this city, and
throughout the day. the subject was
discussed generally throughout the
city. James Rible and Harry Rupert
were drunk and incidentally begged for
some money on Market street the
night before and Officer Parrish col
Jared them and they were sent to the
hill for 80 days by Judge Mundt IN
default Of enough money TO pay the
minimum fine.

A TIMELY MOVE.

tits we'll that the press and the
government are attacking merci-
lessly that awful evil known as
"vhite slavery" because it's
dread Influence and pernicioue
purposes are calculated to, and
are Undermining to q great extent
social virtue and the purity CT the
home. There should be no delay
no parlying-no mercy shown
In dealing with this matter, but
let there be q persistent war to the
death on this beastial system of
organised vice, whose effort is to
trade and barter the chastity of
pure and helpless young girls
for immoral purposes.
The law Of our State is strict
and severe enough to destroy this
evil, II Il is enforced. The press
and . vigilsnt and outraged peo-
pie must see to it that the law is
enforced with an unsparing hand.
We are pleased to know that the
city press is sounding the alarm,
and good aud pure men snd
women 10 our cities are organized
to protect the purity of the young
girl from the seductive influences
Of the degraded beasts in human
form who seek to destroy them.
But this evil is not confined to the
crowded centres of life. Its in
sidious and baneful influence
stretches out into every m.
munity. It is at work with its
deadly purpose at all places where
the weak, the helpless and uofor-
tunate are found. By deceit, by
falsehood, by alluring promises
Of the beauty of city life, they
work on the pure but weak coun-
try girl, until she, believing, con-
seutstAndtis lost.
Then let the country press join
with their city brethren, and wage
the Eight without quarter in the
protection. of society, and for the
purity oftheir homes and firesides
against this greatest of all evils.
