GORMAN FINED S25
FOR DISTURBANCE
Judge Barber Thought Unusual Cir
cumstances Justified Larger Pen
atty than Usually Imposed

c. II. German appeared before Judge
Frank Z. Barber in municipal court
this morning and pleaded guilty to a
Monday evening. The court imposed a
fine Of $25 ana costs of S6.76 which
the young man paid. The police were
notified that evening that young man
and young woman were on the com
mon and that they were creating a dis
turbance. Later they were found near
by and the man, German, was arrest
ed. He was Immediately released on
bail and the case was continued to to-
day. The fine was several times as
large as the usual fine for disturbance.
but in this instance the circumstances
which were out Of the ordinary, seem
ed to Justify the larger penalty.
