Jasper County Democrat, Volume 11, Number 29, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 September 1908 — BAN PLACED ON THREE SHOWS. [ARTICLE]

BAN PLACED ON THREE SHOWS.

Brazil, Ind., September, 9.—A committee from the Good Citizens’ League, headed by the pastors of the Protestant churches of this city, last night, made a tour of the shows exhibiting at the home-coming celebration here, and placed a ban on three of them, while several others are now under advisement. Two of the shows, it is charged, are immoral, and the third was decided to be a gambling device. The owners of the places condemned were warned to close at once and avoid prosecution, and the orders were obeyed immediately.
