to operate in this community de-
spite the Act of. 1898 which pro-
hjbited public dance halls, bit

community, Judge NuckoIIs is de-
termined that no more dance halls
will be permitted during his ten

ed in a more decent manner This {
not having the desired effect he
has now set his foot down on the
halls and will henceforth enforce
