Tomorrow An Event Store-Wide in Character and State -Wide in Importance ' Maybe the significance of the mlstle ' to wti treasured simply in the memory 6f other and more happy days for the eight women who found themselves be- hind the bars of the city Jail on the eve of Yuletlde. Maybe It was In a ' spirit of grim humor that the privileged ' sprays were hung where none could exercise the privilege. Regardless, the women spent Tuesday bedecking their barren quarters with evergreens, holly and the white-berried parasite of the oak. All were deter mined to make the day as happy a the circumstances of their incarceration would permit.- Judge Extendi Clemency The Christmas spirit permeated the municipal court Tuesaay, ana mo rtfanAnrm who noneared be fore Judge Rossman were allowed to ...., th.lr homes. Three youths, kniiiwin. Howard Sheets rand tv pirinn. convicted of vagrancy and carrying concealed weapons, were ..nt.nn.H to snend 15. 10 and 80 days " i 1 ii rnsnectively. The others were ,let off with fines or wijth suspended sentences. M ii... it ff.nr. confined for varl ninnr infractions of the law, were released by Judge Rossman to return to .h hnm for the holidays. Seven prisoners, serving sentences in the city Jail petitioned tne juage ior a remu.u of the unexecuted portions of their sen tences. The request of four was . granted, but the other three, whose names appeared on the paper, received no clemency. A Dainties Sent to Prisoners Lewis Brown, arrested by Police Ser geant Van Overn for a! violation of the prohibition law, was fined $35 in the ' municipal court. Henry Acnmei juun6 Italian, convicted of Btriking a 6-year-old boy. was sentenced to pay a fine of, $30. and Mrs. Helen Wright, who, for got her marriage vows, and was caught In a police raid on a downtown rooming ' house, paid $15 for her transgression of ." the law. Frank Maloney, a vagrant, arrested for the theft of a watch and haln from a roomnlg house, was held to await the action of the grand Jury. Through the leniency of Judge Ross man three dusky prisoners who were ' serving 60-day sentences for vagrancy, were released and allowed to return, to their homes. The other eight women w f nroori to remain and made their ' quarters j as homelike as possible. A ' phonograph, furnlBhed by local music house, a box of oranges, sent by mem bers of the Apostolic Faith mission and fruit and candies donated by a lawyer added chew to the Jail, and the evening was spent by the unfortunates much as did thousands of their happier sisters. I A Christmas dinner, with all the usual luxuries enjoyed In the average home, was served to all the inmates, men and women, confined in the city Jail today. Bounty Claims Received ' a.um r 25.
