TO THIS JUDGE
AS One Defendant Learns
of Judge Slater at Cost
of $40 and Costs.
TWO GOT TOO MERRY
Brothers HoIzjermne Admit
They Got Drunk at Friends
Wedding on Saturday.

They come into court Monday morn
ing and pay three dollars and costs, as
a rule, for the questionable pleasure
of Saturday night. This Monday morn
ing morning was no different from the
ordinary "blue Monday" and group
of detected men sat in the court room
under the custody of the police, wait
ing for the judge to come and dispose
of their cases.
George Posewick, charged with dis
orderly conduct, insisted through the
Polish interpreter, that he had not
been disorderly Saturday night.
81 was only drunk" he said
Change the warrant to read 'intoxi-
cation,," directed Judge Slater.
Presently George was brought before
the judge on the altered complaint
"Well, where did you get the. stuff
that made you drunk?" asked Judge
Slater, as he prepared to say "Three
dollars and costs"
Don't Lie to the Judge.
II bought it of couple of fellows in
an automobile" George replied.
"Come now, tell me the truth; where
did you buy your drinks?"
Couple of fellows in an automobile
replied the defendant
"You want me to believe that, do
you?" asked Judge Slater.
"Yes," George answered back, with
out changing muscle.
"Ten dollars and COSTS" said the
judge.
A Merry Wedding.
Isreal Holzjerme and Azablyn Holz-
ierme, two Armenian, brothers, were
brought before the judge, charged with
disorderly conduct on Saturday night.
what did you do that was dis
orderly? ?" asked the judge of the first
brother.
Drunk" he replied candidly.
"Where did you get the drinks ~
"At the house." was the answer.
"And YOU" said the Judge turning to
the other, what did you do"
Nothing" he answered.
Just an innocent lamb, I suppose"
said the judge.
There was wedding at the house,"
murmured the second brother.
"Oh," said the Judge. az guess I'll
change my mind. don't think I'll
give you what l had intended. Still,
you know, you ought to behave your
self at wedding. Three dollars and
costs each"

of stopping the cars on both sides
of the square, is also being consid-
cred and we may ask tSat this be
discontinued"
The loop which Chief Logan suggests
would call for sthe building of tracks
on Sheridan road to connect Market
street and South street. The cars
could then be routed around this loop
in such way as to end the parking
Of cars in Market Square which has
been customary. This look project has
been suggested several times before,
but not by officials of the city.
The other possible solutions of es-
tablishing safety zones and the like
are not favored by Chief Logan. He
declares that traffic policemen have
been instructed to attempt. to enforce
such regulations and that they have
found it nearly impossible under the
present conditions.

Waukegan Has a
GhOstly Ghost
fBv Associated Pressl


Waukegan, ul.-A hungry ghost with
taking ways and Mondays off at dawn
today had foiled a shotgun squad, at
the home of Mrs. Catherine Milako-
witch, where an all night vigil had been
kept.
At all hours, of the night the visitor
has been heard, Mrs. Milakowich in
formed Father Joseph Lauerman, to
whom she went for protection. Hell
eat me out of house and home" she
told him. 81 don't know who he is, but
he can't be my husbands ghost. My
husband never had an appetite like
that"
During a recent night Mrs. Milako-
witch heard him in the cellar, sum-
moned the shotgun squad and found
that two sacks of flour and fifty
pounds of sugar had vanished and the
coal supply had been diminished.
Daniel, her eldest boy, awoke one
morning to find that his bed had been
moved across the room. Michael De-
coma, a cigar manufacturer, who lives
in the house, told of his experience
with the spook.
"Last Friday morning." he said,
"there was a peculiar noise at the
door. I struck match. The door
flew open, the match was blown out
and a hand grabbed me by the neck,
choked me and then hit me on the
nose" The only nights on which the
disturber has not been heard have been
Monday nights, according to Mrs. Mia
kowich. So now the shotgun squad has
been organized to guard the house six
nights a week.

The cause OF the dispute Is an attempt
by the mine owners to reorganize the
labor forces by greater employment of
native labor, especially in the semt-
skilled occupations. in order to decrease
working costs and thus meet the de-
creased price of coal.
Premier Smuts endeavored to avert the

Paris. Jan. y.
The Russian Soviets will agree to
recognize the debts of the old regime,
but will enter n counter claim against
France for the damage done to Rus
sian property by the Wrangel ex-
pedition which was carried on under
French auspices. and will also hold
France responsible for the funds of
the Russian Government, which have
been used by unauthorized occupants
of the Russian Embassy here.
This information, which was given
TO THE New YORK HERALD correspond
ent to-day by highest Russian sources.
holds the possibility of similar claims
being made against the United States,
which according to the Soviets has
allowed the Bakhmeteff group to
spend millions of rubles which should
have been locked away until the Rus
sian muddle was Strengthened out.
The Russians here insist that Moscow
will agree to all the Allies conditions.
and with the exception of the embassy
group, which would lose their jobs II the
Soviets are recognized. the Russian col
ony is practically unanimously in favor
of giving the Sovets a chance to prove
their ability TO carry on q legitimate
government.
