Farmers are 6ften violators of the traffic ordi nances, 'but this is generally ' due1 to Ignorance of the law and .the cbietj and Ills lieutenants have" made it a practice to notify the farmers j the first offense. Adolpb Newlln, however, is deemed by the police to be in a class were ignorance of the law. Is no valid excuse and he bas been called upon to contribute $5 for bitching his horse on tbe wrong side of the street. Automobile men are being fined quite frequently ' for both ternlng In the middle of the block and for not fac ing their cars correctly. Cutting the corners at too high a speed is also a frequent offense that causes $5 to percolate into city exchequers. . While Jay Van Buren was nursing a loss of $5 for falling to go to the in tersections this week, J. D. McKennon came Into the list of victims in a pe culiar way and he now sees the folly of his way. He had broueht a friend ill' his car to his office cur'j'yest'iraay without proper ado failed to face his car right. He left his friend in the car and went inside about the time that the chief beppened along. Tbe peace-maker found by quizzing that the man in the car was unacquainted with the statutes aud was debating In his mind whether or not to arrest him anyway, when the defenceless fel low blurted out that it was McKen non's car, not his. It happens that Mr. McKennon's office is not over 10 steps from the recorder's office, hence It was a short matter to pry a piece of gold loose and drop It into tbe common cause fund. - Pellagra Conference Meets.
