The week has been a rather active 
one for the police in the line of in- 
temperates. Two were taken from 
the barn in the rear of the Baptist 
church Monday, one being fined $5 in 
court Tuesday, while the other was let 
off without going to court. Officer 
Jones took a man of more than three 
score years off the 9.30 train Tuesday 
night and he, too, was let off in-the 
morning. Officer Lee rounded in an- 
other drunk on the same day. He 
was not taken before the tribunal. 
The new law relative to drunks has 
been exercised for the first time this 
week, but while the police have the 
right to let a man up for the first time 
off without appearing in court, the 
matter is optional with them and only 
such cases as they deem wise are al- 
lowed to go.
