Admirers of Women
Prisoners Treated to
the "Water Cure''
MEN WHO INSIST UPON TALKING
TO INMATES OF CITY JAIL
ARE SOAKED.

The "water cure" is being used at
the city hall to good advantage upon
those certain men who show a friend
ly interest in the unfortunate inmates
of the women's Jail by conversing
with them through the bars and
sometimes by passing in refresh
ments The convenient window
through which this communication is
had is just below a window on the
second story of the city hall in the
club rooms Of the firemen.
Now those firemen have keen ears
and few are the men who approach
that window undetected by them.
They are also firm believers in the
efficacy OF water and keep four
gallon bucket OF ii stationed near the
window. Thus. Just when the con-
versatlon between the bars is becom-
ing interesting. down from above
comes a mighty deluge OF water upon
the head Of the unsuspecting man.
The retreat is generally more rapid
than graceful.
The firemen have been called upon
to administer the water cure" a
number OF times since the girls

making the women's Jail their head
quarters. One of their male friends
has already been drenched three
times and will probably take chance
