FISH MAN IS FINED
 FIR SHORT WEIGHT
KopIoWitz Pays S35 for Selling
 MaCkerel IA Pound Short

The third prosecution for alleged short weight was brought this morn ing at the instance of Scaler of Weights and Measures Carl A. Carl- son when Nathan koplowtH, 1 local fish dealer, Was fined $35 and costs for selling a pound and three quarters of fish, representing the weight 10 be two pounds. The fish was sold last Friday morning to Mrs Andre" Carlson for 60 cents and weighed twice at her request by the dealer.
 Mrs. Carlson, who lives at 3S6 Chestnut street went out to Koplo- witz's fish team Friday about 1915 o clock, she told Judge James T. Mes kill this morning, and asked for certain kind of fish. As koploWitZ had none of that kind, she agreed 10 take some macIlcrcl. Pointing out ono of the finny tribe, she inquired IS to the cost, and, after he weighed It. she claims, I<oploWiz said:
 1.-TWO pounds, 60 cents.
 She asked if he was sure that it weighed two pounds, as she has had other occasion to doubt his honesty as to weight, she remarked, and he assured her that it did After she had paid for it, she took it into her homo and placed it upon another scales .As it registered but pound and quarters, she again went out to tho street and told him that she had been cheated. koplOWitz throw it upon his scales and it regis tered two pounds, so he refused to allow that her scales were right.
 Assured that she had been given short weight, Mrs. Carlson took the fish 10 tho office of the sealcr of weights and measures. Friday aftCr- noon, and the scalcr found it to weigh but ono pound and 12 ounces. The city official then went to Nop1o- Witz's home and told him of the com plaint and was told that it had not been represented to weigh two pounds but that he had sold her tho mack crCl for GO cents without making any claim at all as to it's weight.
 This morning he repeated his argu- mcnt that he had made no miSreD- rescntatiOn, inasmuCh as he had of fCrCd the mack crcl for 60 cents with out announcing it's weight and if had been accepted in that manner. When Mrs. Carlson offered the statement that U neighbor had been given two pounds of maCkcrcl for 60 cents and that the fish was not selling for 70 cents, as he claimed, <oploWitz stated that the neighbor had purchased halibut steak and paid 90 cents. Judge Mcskll broke into the argument with the order:
 "WeU, now you can pay the clerk $35.''
 George SchlCithor has been work ing steadily out of the city, and in view of that fact, Inc was allowed to go this morning. He was arraiEnCd for running away from the Town Farm several months ago. Sch1cithcr was sent to tho farm from the local court and was 10 have remained there until Juno 1. 1919.
 TO allow q further investigation and have witnesses summoned, Inc case of RiCCi BcncVcntO has been con- tinucd until tomorrow morning, nt which time he will face d charge or driving his auto past a standing trolley car.

Owing TO the fact that SO many
mothers had TO leave their families OF

while they went out TO work TO make

ceiyed the idea Of catering to the
needs Of these children by means OF a

Assisted by three or four other wom-
Ell, she paraded the poorer quarters of
London, cooking en- route all kinds of
toothsome and nourishing dishes. The
Riddles came running out with their
plates ut the blowing Of tin trumpet.
and were served with piping hot and
appetizing dinner in return for a
trifling sum of money, which had been
left with them for this purpose by

The fame of the caravan kitchen
soon spread abroad, and within a short
space of time was paying its way, 3d.
600 dinners a week being served In
one district alone.

SENTIMENT IN THE TRENCHES
Soldiers Reason for Not Shooting
Hare Was a Decided Reflection
On the Hun.

This tale comes from q soldier who
was one OF the first Yanks to reach the
front:
A big, burly. good-humored chap was
with me on outpost duty and We were
lying listening in wood where there
We're several clumps OF underbrush
In our neighborhood. We were think
ing of another move forward when We
Spled y large French hare running
straight toward us. He was coming
as directly AS possible away from the
enemy lines.
Although there was no attack from
either side In progress at that mo-
ment. the desultory rattle Of some
machine gun and the occasional crack
of a rife rendered IL safe 10 try
shot AT any object without fear of
discovery.
Hit him or | WILL" said |. Don't
shoot" was the answer. the poor
beggar thinks he has better chance
for life coming over 10 us than he has
going in the Huns direction"
That bit of sentiment knocked me
cold and l could not stir the trigger.
The hare disappeared in the under
brush and l felt convinced that his
sympathies were with us. II would
have been different story had II been
sighted.
