TWO OF SEXTETTE OF JOY
 RIDERS FINED BY COURT
Unlicensed Driver Runs Down Car Driven By Miss Eliza

Queer Quirks to Two Automobile
 Cases

T suppose they think it was smart but l don't see it., said Judge Geis- sier in the city court, Wednesday morning.
 Probably they did last night but they don't this morning. said Prose- cutting Attorney, E. H. Johnson.
 The remarks of the judge and prosecutor related to Sanford Ben son, 20, of Hanover, and William Brissette, l9, of Baltic. who were found to be the only two drunken members of sextette of joy riders, Tuesday night. Both plead guilty.
 The two young men said that they left Baltic about half past six. A man gave them half pint of liquor. &C., cording to their story, for taking him from Baltic to Taftville. They pro- cured more liquor, they said, in Plain field, and there became drunk. They did not say where the three girls boarded their car.
 Someone made complaint to the police that there was a drunken au- tomobile party in the highway and officer Laird made an investigation. He found three young men and three girls in the ear. The man driving the ear had not been drinking, nor had Che girls. All of the liquor con- sumed had been drunk by Benson and Brissette.
 The boys were each fined Sl0 and costs of si5.14, which they paid.
 Drove a Block Without License
 Arthur Marquis plead guilty to operating an automobile without hay ing a license. He said that he had three or four times driven car he owned for the distance of block from friends house to his garage. He had been operating the car but always had a licensed operator with him. He said he made application for examination for license but was told, according to his story. that he had better save his money to pay a fine.
 Neither the court nor the prosecu- tor thought the violation of the law a very fragrant one and a fine of 5 and actual costs of si was the sentence imposed.
 Teacher Had No License
 The ease of David Overman was a peculiar one. David bought d car June sth. He did not know how to drive and asked a friend of his to get him a teacher. The friend sent a young man to take David out and give him instructions. Overman agreed to pay for this instruction and had made one payment.
 Monday night when the two young men were returning home they came in collision with a car operated by Miss Elizabeth Rafferty at the corner of Providence and School streets. It was due to the investigation made by the officers at that time that it became known that Overman's driv- ing instructor did not have an opera tors license. This was the first that Overman knew of 1t but he was arr rested and plead guilty to being tech nically at fault.
 The court and prosecutor did not feel that under these circumstances Overman was much to blame and he was fined a dollar and ordered to pay actual costs of four dollars.
 The car driven by Miss RaffertyI had the rear fender dented, back bumper bent and q hole and dent in the side of the body.
