Was Tending to Her Business In Protecting Inebriate Husband.

Monticello Democrat. A shoemaker over at Winamac strpek a woman over the eye with a shoe one evening last week because she had come to his shop and accused him of running a blind tiger and selling h'er husband whisky. The shoemaker was arrested and fined $25 and costs, amounting to $35.10. The fine was a fairly stiff one, but not yet large enough for a brute of a man who will strike a woman—and yet there were some people in Winamac—as everywhere else—who took the part of the accused blind tiger keeper and paid the woman should have staid at home and “attended to her own business.”
