In the Ellie case, Officer Feeney
testified that girl who lives in an
other tenement in the house where
Ellie lives, was with the Star street
girl when the alleged assault was
committed. This girl testified that
Ellie had attempted to entice her into
his tenement.
The Star street girl testified that
Ellie gave her so cents on one occa-
sion, 10 cents an other time, and l6
cents on another visit. From the
testimony, it appeared that the al

not as serious as that charged
against Jacobs. DIR. John Purney

Johnson girl had been assaulted q
number Of times although the state
charged Jacobs with only one count.

DURING COURT SESSION

Johnson on both counts, Judge Hun
gerford continued the case until
April &c and allowed her to so with
out bonds. He impressed on her,
however. that nhe was being allow
ed her liberty pending trial, solely
because of the fact that she has
children at home who need her at
tontion, and she must appear In
court to answer the charge.
Officer Thomas J. Fcency, who
arrested Ellie and Jacobs late yes
terday afternoon. testified to the cir
cumstances brought to his attention.
and the girls told their stories, after
which the accused men denied the
charges. Neither was represented
by counsel and Judge Hungerford
bound both over TO the June term of
superior court in $500 bonds. Jacobs
had concluded his testimony and
had been bound over, and Ellie was
in the midst of his testimony when
the sensation was sprung.
According to Jacobs. Mrs. John
son wanted money from him and
told him she would get him AL the
girls I wanted" She sent one mar
ried woman to his home, he said,
and he admitted he was guilty of a
violation Of the moral code as a re-
suit. but he denied absolutely that
the story OF Mrs. Johnson's daugh-
ter was true. The child came to his
hn1JSa and no o. ha- Sn Ia
said, but he did not commit the as
sault. In reply to questions, Jacobs
said he has children aged II and 10
years in an institution. His wife died
about eight years ago, he said.
Mrs. johnson was called to the
ney Woods and asked to comment on
Jacobs testimony. She said her child
wanted to go to Jacobs home to
scrub the floor in order to earn
money for pair Of stockings which
she needed but she never had any
trustworthy man. She denied she
had ever arranged the meeting be-
I ween him and the married woman
he referred to. This woman told her
some time ago that she knew Jacobs
a number OF years.
Ellie, in whose case an 11-year-old
girl living on stat street was impli-
denied the charge. He said he
was in ped one night few weeks
ago when Mrs. johnson called on
him in company with girl. This
same Mrs. Johnson?" Prosecuting
Attorney Woods asked. and when
Ellie replied affirmatively, recess was
taken and the warrants issued.

sion. rejected the French suggestion
lor basis of naval limitation yes
'rnday, but today he accepted the
French demand for limitation OF

Cecil said Britain recognized the
1ogic OF the French argument that
unless there We're limitation OF
naval personnel, vast marine Or
-anizations could be maintained in
times of peace for use on land in
lime of war. Cecil stipulated that
where naval electives belonged to
he domlnlons, the latter must de-
eide themselves whether to accept
limitation.
Hugh S. Gibson. presenting the
United States, said that the United
states still was opposed to lmita-
ton of naval personnel, but that if
generally accepted basis were
found for limitation OF warships,
The question of limitation of effec-
lives would not constitute an insur-
nountahle problem for the United
States. but only II It applied to et-
tectives aboard ships with a GER

In view OF the changed British
attitude, Japan announced the pos

The Plentywood Merchant

For more than Is years the Herald has
been boosting for Plenty~ood merchants
the hometown business men.
Plentywood merchants stand by their
hometown at all times; always willing to
lend a helping hand in the support OF
every home enterprise; they back every
move that is for the interest OF the com
munity. They carry complete lines OF
goods in every department., they buy from
the best wholesale markets, and as they
sell at right prices only merchants are en-
titled to the trade of Sheridan county.
But we wonder if the citizens in and
about here realize the great worth OF the
hometown merchants to the general life
of the community. of the diverse things
they do for the town and its people, and
how much we. as a people, owe to them.
Back of every movement for good-for
development. for progress and uplift-are
the hometown merchants. and often only
the hometown merchants, while others
fold their hands in indifference other
than to hold them out during beneficial
showers.
Who is it hat contributes most to com
munity welfare-to church, to school. to
society. to charity, to enterprises and Inn
provements? The hometown merchants
Who are the vital forces in every or
ganization having TO do with community
life and betterment? The hometown
merchants.
Who are the first to launch movements
for various improvements, for better
streets, for a cleaner city, for city beau
LITIGATION. for amusements and entertain
ments? The hometown merchants.
who digs deeper into their pocketbooks
to help worthy causes along-and calls
come often during the runo of a %year-and
who gives more support to community
benefits, with their money, presence and
voice-than the hometown merchants?
Nobody.
Who are the first to speak up against
that which is injurious to our community
that is determinal to the home. to so
ciety, to the industrial. commercial, f.
nancial and moral life? The hometown
merchants.
Verify day by day and in every way
P~lentywood merchants are contributing OF
their money, their time and their energy
to make this community a bigger, better
and buster place in which to labor and
live.
1t is well that our citizens give more
than a passing thought to the debt they
owe TO Plentywood merchants and that
this debt can be repaid by giving to them
the trade of the community, a trade that
is rightfully theirs. a trade well earned.
The truth of the matter is. hometown
merchants are selling goods at. or less
than city prices, and if We will be fair
enough to admit that it costs money L
SO to the city-car or bus fare, gasoline
wear and tear of the car. time spent and
shoe leather worn Quit is, after all is
said and done. cheaper to trade at home
saying nothing of the spirit of reciprocity,
of doing all we can for the hometown
merchants. who do as much for us.
