I lie Justice Courts Officer Stukel Arrest ed Barney Flanna gan Yesterday Ir'or Harboring l'roMtituteM. Jn Inmate ot the lloune AIo r rented and Flnrd Othr l'ae Tried. From all account and nome investiga tioQM on the part of the officers there are one or two bouses of questionable char acter in our village and that ribt in the basinet part of the city and under the very none of our good citizen. For some time past Officer Stukel, in tuaking bio rounds at night, bad noticed that a houne on Birch Lace, near the barrack, had been frequented by men at &I1 hour and accordingly suspected it haracter. Yesterday the officer made complaint before Justice Fisher, charging a girl who lived in the bouse with being a common prostitute. She pleaded guilty .nd a fine of $10 and coat was imposed. The girl said she had no borne to go to iud bad been driven to her present down tvard course, but probably because she was too lary to work. By a good deal -of cross-questioning the officer succeeded in getting the girl to make a confession, which implicated the man who ran the &ooee, who wai virtually her partner in "the proceeds, and hi arrest followed. The man gave hi name a Barnev Flan masan and was charged with keeping a ..house for the resort of prostitute, to which, when brought before Justice JfTisher, be pleaded not guilty, but when t the girl' testimony was introduced he acknowledged hi guilt and was given k the full extent of the law and fined $25 rinriyvdta Tho oirl onirl aha nnU VI nn. . xrigan $8 a month hoard, besides the divinion with him. 'Both arrests were made under the vil lage ordinance. Officer Stukel deserves omH th'm rAMR find t is to hn honed he will keep his eye on some other places. ' JL'wo cases involving the rights of in a ants to contract debts were tried yes 'tcrday be?ore Justice Fisher and were made test cases for several others of a "ery himilar nature. One trial came off ' iu the morning and occupied the atten tion of the court nearly a'l forenoon, Li!ethe other was tried last evening. From the evidence it seems that several ..vonng fellows h' frequented F. W. ".Ivatppi's temperance saloon on Fifth reet had run ud large tills there which tbcT did not pay. Kauppi had their wages garnlsbeed and the suit was . Drocput when it came to nettling up. They claimed that they were under age -heo the bills were contracted and were, 'therefore not rrKporsible. There wa thorns doubt in the mind of the justice ns to tbeir age and the case was decided iu favor of Kauppi, as the court held that 'the paint was not proven. Attorney 'W. J. McDonald was for Kauppi and 0. J. Larson represented the boys. -Tr)H. or Ileyood the Koeklta."
