A man over 40 years old was taken ' before Police Judge Cunning yester day charged with insulting a lady on the street. The defendant, who gave his name as John Doe, did not let the case go to trial but pleaded guil ty, giving as an excuse that he was partly intoxicated. The Judge im posed a fine of $50 which was prompt ly paid. The city authorities are determined to break up the practice of insulting women, either by staring at them or by word of mouth, and a few such fines will-cause would-be mashers to sit up and take notice.
