say that the senators are being flood

for the amendment
It is thought that the matter may
be brought up in the senate Feb. %,
but this is not certain as this day is
usually observed as a holiday with the

LIED TO COURT
GETS THIRTY DAYS
John Rodick Tries to Hold Out
Two Dollars and Is Caught
At 1t.
Protests He Is An Honest Man and
Had Never Been Arrested
Before.

While sitting in the police office at
headquarters Wednesday morning
waiting for the opening of court, the
groans, means and bewailing of John
Rodick could be heard in the steel
cell behind the iron door to the cell
room. Ore would have felt sorry for
poor John had he not been acctstom-
ed to the sorrows, tears and woes of a
police court morning. But it devel-
oped in court that John was staging
a little piece of his own which he
hoped would arouse sympathy and get
him his freedom. And it almost
worked If John had not been SO
anxious to save little money, or too
anxious to get out, he might have
gotten out. but his procedure arous-
ed the curiosity of Judge Geissler.
and little judicious cross examining
developed that John was trying bit
of eamouaage that failed to hage
John plead guilty to intoXication.
He said he came from Central Village
and was on his way to Mechaniesville
to see a sister whom he had not seen
ia 26 years. He stopped in Putnam
and drank more than he ate and it
made him sick The officer said that
John did not know where he was al
when he found him, and that he was
obliged to lock him up. A sentence
of IS fine was imposed.
John said he was an honest man,
mad never been in any trouble and
would never take another drink. He
said he could pay two dollars and
would owe the rest The court was
considering Johns case, but he be
came so anxious that he finally dug
down and fshed up another two spot
He also said later that his sister lived
in Perryville, and when it was called
to his attention that he had said she
lived in Mechanicsville, John said he
meant it was his nephew that was
living in the little village up the riY-
err.
Il will revoke the former sentence
and give you 80 days and costs" said
Judge Geissler If you think you
can put something over on this court
you are very much mistaken
When John saw the game was up
there were no more means, walls or
protestations. He took his medicine
like one used to taking it, and spec
tator in the court room told The Pa
triot representative that he knew
John and that John lives in Webster
and that John has been arrested sew
eral times in the Bay State town.
