Jail to Fine, but
Husband Pays 1t

Rather than pay $40 for disorder
ly conduct in connection with the
alleged beating of her next door
neighbor's police dog, Mrs. Anna
Carl, 1926 v street southeast, the
mother Of five children, chose to go
to Jail today when fined by Judge
Gus A. Schuldt in Police Court and
said she would stay there the five
days necessary to discharge the OBJ
legation. But the appearance OF her
husband with the requisite fine
ended that, and before the prisoners
van arrived to take her TO jail she
was released.
Mrs. Carl was brought into court.
charged with cruelty to animals and
disorderly conduct, by Mrs Lillian
McDougal, 1923 v street southeast,
who claims she beat the dog with
club yesterday. This testimony was
not corroborated and the court dis
missed the cruelty charge.
However, two witnesses claimed
they heard Mrs. Carl use profane
language toward Mrs. Dougal fol-
lowing the alleged beating of the dog.
and the court fined her $40 on this
count.
81 won't pay it," the defendant de-
clared defiantly.
Very well, then" replied Judge
Schuldt. ''it's $40 or five days"
"I'1l serve five days" Mrs. Carl an
nounced, and she walked into the
dock.
