Dick and Thad made two mis-

The court is beginning 20 ct

difference between a German SPY
and a man who is trying to cripple
the army by getting il drunk.
Both Thad and Dick carried on
their operations in a nesr-beeT sa-

The court soaked them both $JOe

'SWhoOEa Coward

Albert Damnico and Julian Straus
are employed at a certain Pennsyl-
vania avenue hotel
We won't name the hotel-but
will say for your benefit that a
square meal there costs S11.63.
Albert is a bus boy and Julian
is a waiter.
The other day Julian gave Albert
orders to stay out Of the dining room.
They had some harsh words about
it. Then both cussed in their own
languages.
Albert challenged Julian to fight
Julian said, NO, l won't fight a
coward"
"whooza coward?' fercely de-
manded Albert as he poked Julian
in the nose and made it bleed.
Great excitement prevailed. Swear
words in Greek, Italian, Bohemian,
Austrian and a few other languages
rent the atmosphere.
Albert says Julian was to blame
and Julian says Albert was to
blame.
And Albert had some scars on his
neck and head which he said Julian
put there.
The court listened to some testi-
mony in bad English and then fined
Albert $40.
Finding Is Not "Keepings."
The other day one of the chap
lains at Camp Meade lost his wal
let containing $3.50 in bills and some
gold coins.
The Doodle was swiped out of the
chaplains car in a local garage.
Henry Watson walked into the
police station and turned in an emp
ty wallet. answering the descrip-
| tion of the lost one, except that it
was empty.
After investigating Policeman
| Jack decided to nab Henry. be-
cause of the conflicting stories he
told about finding it.
Further investigation showed that
Henry got at least four 81 gold pieces.
And the boy explained that he
merely kept this much to pay him
self for finding the wallet
1t was all that was in it. he
said. and he insisted that he knew
nothing about the rest of the
money.
For all we know Henry might
have got the rest-but that cannot
be proven. There are lots of things
We know to be true but can't prove
in court
There is a grave doubt that any
one is going to throw away a pock-
etbook with 81 in it in plain view.
But since there was no proof that
Henry did get it all, and having
his own admission to swiping the
81, the court told him to make rest-
tuition of that much and fined him
$40 besides.
Separated Anyhow.
"Jedge, All wants you to separate
me en- dat woman. She takes cherry
cent All gifts. She fuses wild me
all de time. Eff yo doan do somefin
All will land in de penthouse sure
enuff right away"
My dear man, I cannot seperate
/ you two" said the court to Pete
Martin, chaged with mauling the
life out of Sarah his wife.
DE poah man." Pete started of
| again, ''he amt got no show at all
in dis worl. He's got to be de goat
all de time"
Sarah looked like the tank Brit
tiania had run over her. Her head
was bruised, her eyes blacked and
her nose mashed.
She asked Pete for 50 to pay the
| instalment collector.
Instead she got Pete,s two fists
| and got them good and plenty.

RUSSIAN PROBLEM

GBy Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-The Rus
sian problem already has been taken
up by President Wilson with French
statesmen, 1t was learned here today,
and the determination of a definite
policy, on which all the allied coun-
tries and the United States may agree.
will be one Of the first things under.
taken at the preliminary meetings
which are precede the peace confer
ence.
Russia's plight and the attitude to
be adopted by the victorious associat-
ed nations is recognized as one of the
most serious problems of the confer
ence. Every proposed solution so far
Is said to have ben blocked by the
unanswered question of who is quail
fed to speak for the Russian people.
The Government at Omsk, of which
the United States and other Govern
ments have expected much, is now in
the hands of dictator and split into
factions.
The Entente nations hav not CIV
en- up hope that the Omsk authorities
may yet evolve a stable form of gov
ernment for Russia, but this has not
been accomplished now, and none of
the allied governments has recog-
nized the Omsk regime officially, al
though all of them are dealing with
Russian representatives who are in
close touch with Admiral Kolchak and
