SENT TO JAIL
FOR CRUELTY

Sentenced to spend 10 days in
the county Jail for cruelty to
horses, X. Weinstein, owner of
the Alaska Junk Co., was per-
mitted his freedom by Police
Judge Graham Wednesday until
next week, in order to put his
business affairs in proper order.
On Monday Weinstein must give
himself up to officials at the Jail.
Humane Officer Van Voris had
Weinstein arrested for improper
care of five horses Evidence
showed that the horses were al
most starved to death, and that
the feed given them by the junk
dealer would have been considered
poor straw for bedding by an av-
erage horseman.
Weinstein pleaded poverty
when charged with giving his
horses insufficient feed. When
Judge Graham announced the sem
tence of 10 days in Jail and $25
fine, the junk man wasn't half so
poor.
ooh, Judge, you can make the
fine fives times as big, but don't
send me to JAIL" he pleaded.
