five MEN JAILED
FOR ALCOHOL PARTY

City police rudely interrupted
a denatured alcohol party being
held by five men at the spring on
the hill side near the Kisner Bros
lumber yard yesterday afternoon,
and as a result Mayor W. W. Con.
away had five prisoners before
the bar Of justice In police court
this morning.
Chief Of Police L. D. Snidsr tes.
titled that only one member OF
the party had INDUCED to ,xccsl
but that the party was Just get,
ting under way where the officer,
arrived and that all the Others
had enjoyed at least drink OF
two. The quintet said they bought
the alcohol from an East Side
garage
The men were listed on the
docket as Thomas Ryan, W p,
Morris, William Currey, Michael
Cain and William SIke. They all
entered pleas Of guilty to charges
OF being intoxicated and drew
fines of IS and costs each. As
there was not IS in the entire
bunch they were all sent to jail
for five days.
Mayor Conway has declared
that the city will not feed and
house a bunch of loafers this year
and men committing petty crimes
with the intention of getlrs five
to ten days in the city jail and
then doing the same thing over
again are going to get surprise
Mayor Conway says that whei
the cold weather sets In every one
sentenced to Jail will be compelled
to work on the streets or at Soma
other kind Of work being done by
the city. 1t is thought that this &C.
tton will drive a number of tile
undeslrables out OF the city as
they do not like to work.
