It doesn't look quite right for a
woman to bring her husband into
court when she is as much to blame
as he is.
But Emma Baldwin never thought
Of that She was too mad at Luke.
Sunday night Luke was playing soli-
taire on the parlor table. Emma got
out the bottle and showed it under his

and he drank half. His wife drank
the other half They had always
shared their possessions this way.
Luke's capacity is not as great as
Emma's. and he began to act mean.
He threw his shoe at her. She threw
a pitcher at him
She ran out of the house with Luke
behind her She got out of breath
quickly and he caught her.
The cops interfered and broke up a
fight The neighbors had gathered to
see the fun.
TT is just as much your fault as il
was your husbands" the court told
Emma IF you eot hurt you were the
cause of it yourself"
The court let Luke out on personal
bonds to behave himself.

BOLSHEvIK PERIL
seen BY HARDING
Ohio Senator Demands VIII
son Return and Declares
Wages Must Be Reduced.

Demanding that more attention be
given to the practical things in the
United States and less to the ideals
of democracy for the nations of Eu-
rope, Senator Warren G. Harding, OF
Ohio, delivered an impassioned speech
in the Senate yesterday. He called
upon the President to return to this
country and give consideration Ito
the practical things which have been
neglected"
Unless we get down to a peace
basis within ninety days" Senator
Harding said, you will be more con-
cerned about putting out the fires of
Bolshevism in the United States than
about the starving populations of Eu-
rope. We are building 5000. .OO0, ,OoO
worth of ships, at war prices, ranging
from 500 to $3.50 per ton. 1t Is pro-
posed to spend 5000 900. 600 more. While
We are building on this basis, the
head of the Shipping Board says we
must write off 81, 200, 900, COO. Practical
builders say that is not enough. Where
sthis magic treasury that makes it
possible to write off two. three, four,
five or six billions? If we had any
confidence in ourselves we would say.
Not another ship at war prices"
Senator Harding criticised the Pres
ident for going abroad and declared
that the world today, trembling with
the spread of Bolshevism, owes a good
part of It's difficulties to the policies
of the Chief Executive" He con-
tinued:
I'VE have been infinitely more neg
lectful in preparing for the duties of
peace than in preparing for the duties
of war"
Senator Harding declared that the
standard of wages paid to American
workmen must come down.

Arthur Washington, an Ethiopian
barber, had the nerve to tell Judge
McMahon that he was descended
from George Washington.
The court didn't seem to care much
about his ancestry. What it was in
terested in was why Arthur got drunk
with razor in his pocket.
of course Arthur is a barber He
is always handling a razor.
Policeman Stevens caught him the
other day and locked him up.
'Jedge. All was gwine shave a sick
man wot had sent TO me-" he ex-
planned to the court.
He may have been sick then, but
If you had shaved him in your con-
dition." said the court, the chances
are that he would have never re-
covered"
1t would be rather hard on a sick
man to have a drunken barber shave
him. He wouldn't be sick very long.
OF course a man has a right TO
carry a razor to where he is going
to work
But when he stops and gets drunk.
he loses that right and becomes a
violator of the concealed weapon law
the same as any one else.
The court fined Arthur $50.

His name is Jim Brennan and he
urely made a good job of it,
The atrocity took place on Fourth
street northeast on the night of jan
uary IL
Jim's wife was walking behind him
pleading with him to return home and
behave himself
He was picked and he acted real
nasty to her.
Before she realized what was going
to happen he had turned on her and
hit her a terrible blow.
The poor woman fell to the ground
Three soldiers who were on their way
to Camp Meigs came along and picked
her up.
Jim hid in an alley. He saw the SOL
diers and came out. Some heated
words passed between himself and the
men in uniform, but he decided that
numbers were against him.
1t was not the first time that he had
ill-treated his wife.
Jim weighs about twice as much as
she does and the blow crippled her so
that she had to be carried into court
She told her story between sobs and
chokes. Jim sat there all the while
unconcerned
Judge Mcmahon fined him si25.
