loud. There were no women in the house except Mrs. Flagg. Mrs Flagg told witness that she did not want men coming there. but that she could not keep them away.
 It was stated that the night patrol man heard man accost Mrs. Flagg near the Mullan store. She told him he could not go to her home that night as she had another man there. but that he could come the next night
 It was stated that the Flags were town charges. They came from Xiii lingly some years ago, and that town bears the expense of their support, Mrs. Flagg said that she took in washings. She denied everything ex- eept that there had been drinking in the house.
 The prosecutor said the woman did not show an attitude that denoted that she was sorry and wanted mercy. "She seems to make denial in the face of the facts" he said.
 Francis LeClair, charged with ire quenting, said he was drunk and saw the officer go to the Flagg home. He wanted to see who was going to be arrested, so followed the officer into the house. He admitted later that he was at the house once before.
 Webster, eolored, admitted he went to the house, but said he did not know that it was a disorderly house, He came down from Abingdon with Paine, who brought MT. Flagg's sis ter and brother-in-law, and Saturday night he came again, when Paine brought Louis Benoit. When he was questioned by the court about the beer, Webster was evasive in his an- swers. He said he saw bag of beer setting on the floor. He did not know where it came from. He didn't know where the empty beer bottles came from. In fact he did not know much about the place for a man who was there, and admitted that he himself had not been drinking.
 Alfred H. Paine also admitted be- ing at the house, but said he did not know it was disorderly house. He went there to get Benoit and after he got there he left and brought in some beer, which he and Mir. Flagg drank.
 Benoit said he boarded with MT. Flagg's sister in Abingdon, and when he came to Putnam and met Mrs. Flagg and her husband it made a place for him to leave bundles while he roamed about the town. This is what he said happened Saturday night and was how he happened to be in the house.
 Judge Geissler told the quintet that they were facing serious charge, and if they ever came back on a sim liar charge they would get the limit. Sentences were then imposed as stat ed above.

People are often very must dIsap-
pointed TO find that their family ply
SIAN Is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like
pain in the stomach and bowels collie
and diarrhoea require prompt treat
ment and have in many instances
proven fatal before medicine could be
procured or a physician summoned.
The right way Is to keep at hand a
bottle of Chamberlain Collie and
Diarrhoea Remedy. No physician can
prescribe a better medicine for these
diseases. BY having Il in the house
you escape much pain and sufferiag

HUGGINS SEEKS
 ANOTHER TWIRLER

If Miller Higgins secures at least one first class pitcher-and several deals are on-the Yankees, in their present form, will make things ex- tremely interesting in the American League race. Higgins has con- structed a splendid ball club, outside of the box. Yet the Yankees have climbed into fourth place and may go even higher, if they get the breaks. Gilhooley's batting has been rather light, but the other members of the team constitute wrecking crew that should terrorize enemy pitchers on frequent occasions.
 Winning ball by the Yankees is generally desired. The fact that 5000 fans saw them win yesterday is proof that their efforts are ap- prciated- There should be much good basbal1 when the Tigers, White Sox, Clevelands and Browns tackle the Higgins crew within the mex: three weeks.
