Judge Williams re- minded Snyder. who is 2S years of age, of the disgrace he had been to his parents for several years, and also of the Rhode Island law which allows workhouse for persons who are found to be intoxicated within six months. Snyder said he knew of that law, and l realized that his actions had been a disgrace, and all that. He believed there was a turning point in every mans life, and that he had resolved to reform, to abandon the broad road and seek the narrow path that leads | to salvation, if given the opportunity. | Judge Williams decided to take

 the costs and was placed on probation. | The other cases on the docket were of civil nature and referred to hook accounts, and they were all continued. |
