Kate, and for the time being there
seemed more of her than usual, was
all there.
Arrested For No Reason At All.
Kate told Judge Slater this morning
that she was just sitting there talk
ing when somebody got sore and start
ed to fight, and then police came and
then she was arrested. She inquired
what the word intoxicated" meant
and then said that she had not been
intox.
In order to. be obliging, she would
plead guilty though.
''You have been here before, haven't
your" asked the judge.
''Yes, but all for nothing. They
brought me in for nothing at all, just
like now"
"That's the great trouble with these
policemen" said Judge Slater, II
don't know what we shall do with
them. They bring people in who have
done nothing at all. Have you any
children, Kate ?"
'Not one"
'That's Gods blessing in this case, .
he commented.
Men VIII Pay Fine.
The court inquiring into Kate's past
was informed that she was the same
woman who had beaten up a one
armed husband earlier in the spring
time.
"IIe's only got one arm, but he can
handle six men," said Kate.
Its too bad he can't handle you
then" added Assistant Chief Cyzak.
'The trouble is" said the judge, eff
fix fine in this case, those other
fellows will pay it. But under this
city ordinance fine is all can inn
pose. Twenty-Five dollars and costs
