DON'T GET ROBBED IN INDIANA.

a QUEER idea OF administering the law obtains in
II the courts at Evansville. Ind, where Kingston a
farmer of Equality Ill., has been IN jail for over 81
days simply because he robbed OF $500 Kingston
had come to Evansville with savings from his farm work
to buy piece Of morgaged property advertised for sale
smooth talking stranger offered to show the old farmer
around the city and when he and Kingston parted com
pany Kngston's $500 also missing.
Kingston made complaint TO the Evansville police,
whereupon Harry Tranum was arrested charged with
robbing Kingston and gave bond for 5000. Kingston
was summoned from his home in Illinois to appear as
prosecuting witness early In May But when he arrived
he learned Uranium had jumped his bond and disappear
ed.
In the hope of catching Trainum some day and having
no one else hold for the robbery the Vanderburg Coun-
ty authorities decided to put Kingston in jail.
Now it might bad enough TO be robbed and then
imprisoned for the robbery which you were the victim
but that has not all OF Kingstons troubles. In the
Evansville jail there is kangaroo court composed OF
prisoners with acting Judge another prosecutor
and Others officials enforce the laws made inside
the prison Kingston was hailed before the kangaroo
court and when the discovered that Kingston had
no money TO buy tobacco he sentenced TO be soused
with water daily by other prisoners until he produced
So far Kingston has only refused produce at the
order OF the kangaroo consisting OF ignorant ne
groes but he has also refused put up bond for his
pearance in the circuit demanded by the county
prosecutor He insists on having justice.

HALT, WHO GOES THERE?

n Nd now comes the front with graceful bound
N the President of the NonSmokers' Protective
League whatever that Isl with the statement that
girls engaged to who smoke should at once cancel
the order and seek another life partner His reasons for
the remark or assertion is that smoker thinks more
Of his cigar or pipe than his wife Thanking him for MS
kindly interest the remark that he IS about
as popular with the average redblooded man as fly IS
with baldheaded individual OF course if he was ham
erng away on cigarettes he would probably be right
fully backed by the thinking public but when he starts
abusing the pipe and after dinner cigar he IS getting
so close to the danger line that he is practically IN the
zone He says that wife should allow her husband
to smoke the house and suggests that the back porch is
good place to puff the fragrant weed 1t Is not likely
that his weeping and wang will have any depressing
effects on the marriage license business The average
wife is not going listen any silly twadde about her
husbands pipe and cigar than the average nus
band is going to listen any calamity bowler on the III
effects Of rubbing with powder puff Why,
bless you Mr. AntiSmoker man. the average wife gets as
much pleasure out OF watching her husband puff content
eddy on his pipe cigar as he does himself No. no,
friend you are harpng the subject Back up
before some one pushes you back And by the way old
TOP when you find girl who Is really IN love with
man and you get her to give him up because he smoked
a pipe or cigar just drop card will you?

The liquor people say the farmer loses 1t by prohib

she used to do. She looked into those

kissed the baby's neck and felt the
