We are pleased that the subscrib-

ly to the recent advance in price,
from 81 to $1.50 per year. People
do not ask something for nothing

good paper. On the other hand a
paper that does not get an adequate
price cannot be a good paper and

Happenings in the Court Across the River

"I think the trenches would be { good place for that fellow," said Mrs Hattie Miller, while testifying against Edward Loveley Tuesday morning. Loveley was charged in two counts for breach of the peace, the first or June 3rd and the second July Is. His brother, Alex Loveley, told the court that Ed came ,sneaking around his house and enticed his wife out That there were fights and all sorts oi trouble when Ed was around and that he had told him to keep away.
 Mrs. Miller also told of trouble on School street whenever Ed appeared and said that everything was "lovely' when Loveley kept away. Loveley has twice been before the court on similar charges, the last time being year ago when he was senten- ced to months in jail.
 Judge Fuller said to Loveley that it would seem that after serving six months sentence for similar ofiense he would know enough to keep away.
 Loveley tried to put lthe blame on his brothers wife, saying she ran after him and that if she didn't chase him all the time there would have been no trouble.
 A sentence of months on each count, with costs of S9.29, was impos- ed.
 George Macdonald was charged with drunkenness. He was arrested ten minutes before court.
 "You are drunk are you?' asked Prosecutor Johnson.
 1T am not drunk" replied George, who stood holding onto the rail in the prisoners dock and swaying back and forth.
 "You're a cheerful ,optimist," said Judge Fuller and George acknowledge ed 1t with a smile. 5O,days and costs for George.
 Peter Donnery, arrested with George, also said, "Me no drunk" but his ap pearance was against him. He drew 10 day and costs.
 Captain Ryan said he found the two men in Cargill park and told them 10 20 down in the lots and sleep It OH. They utilized the steps of the Putnam Woolen Company's office and so were arrested.

Then he came forward storming and declared she could not leave the store without being searched.
 You come sneaking in here to take some of my things while my back is turned" he cried, seizing her by the arm.
 "You impossible personl Don't you dare to touch me" said the young woman coolly. "Why don't you stay in the front of your store where you belong to wait on peopieT
 By this time they had reached the little flight of steps leading down into the shop, the man still clutching at the girls elbdN. She looked around. There was no policeman in sight. So she settled matters herself. With one vigorous push she sent the proprietor of the antique shop sprawling down the steps, then continued her calm stroll up the avenue.
