This column has had ar ticles before on the goodness of these. Yesterday the first of the fallen ones appeared in the person of Missie I Glenn, who had to answer on a charge I of disorderly conduct. She could not j do s- satisfactorily and was fined j $2.50. This was promptly paid and Missie will have another chance to see the world from other locations than from behind prison bars. Following this case Perry Little and his wife were asked for an explana tion in regard to a misunderstanding o— Saturday, which was again brought to mind in the shape of a charge of disorderly conduct appearing: on the hook of the clerk. Both Perry and his wife advanced explanations of the af fair which were duly noted bv His Honor. The trouble seems to have started from the manner in which the woman handled a waiter. Little ob jected and the rucuss was the result. It grew so heated that it was .trans ferred from the restaurant of Little on Frederick street, to their home. Here the story grew exciting, with such sensational phrases as packing of trunks and leaving the place thrown generously through this part of the testimony. It was learned from the evidence that peace had not been restored and that strife still ex isted in the domestic relations of the two. Little paid a fine of one dollar. B. B.
