S' BOTTLE Two Farmers, Overcome by Hospitality, Land in x City Court. beware of a. friend with a bottle, especially the kind of bottles found in South Bend. That Is the warning Judge Gilmer gave to two Paw Paw, Mich., farmers in city court Monday morning. Iayton and (J rover Orr came to South Bend from Paw Paw Saturday to pee a lawyer. They went to his office, but he was not in. As they left the lawyer's oflice, they met a friend who used to live in Paw Paw. The friend had a bottle, and he was hospitable. The two brothers, after partaking of the friend's hospitality, got into th'ir automobile and started down Michigan st. The hospitality of the friend had already begun to work, and Dayton Orr appeared to have been treated to hospitably. In other words he was very drunk, along with being sick. Grover Orr, who was dMivng tho machine, was so overcome by what he had taken out of his friend's bottle that he was unable to snide his machine out of the way of other machines, and ran right Into one at the corner of Michigan st. and Jefferson hlvd. This was too much for th police, so they took the brothers to police headquarters. Both men admitted to having been drunk, but they insisted that they were willing to do anything to K't hack homo. ' want to get back homo and milk my cows." said Grover. "They haven't been milked since we left home Saturday." Dayton appealed from the witnesses stand to the assembled patrons of the city court. "I leave it to you gentlemen," he declared after he had told his story "You are fined Z and costs on the charge of intoxication," Judge Gilmer told Dayton. "Yours Is a more serious offense, and you are fined $2S and costs on the charge of running an automobile while intoxicated," the judpe Faid to Grover. Doth defendants looked surprised, hut they raid their lines and hurried Kick to Paw Paw. CHIEF ASKS F MORE POLICE!! Police Head Deplores Shortage of Men on Department at Luncheon. Reading from an apparently carefully prepared manuscript. Chief of Police Kline entertained the members of the Chamber of Commerce I at their nooday luncheon Monday by an address that dealt principally with statistics relative to the number of men on the department and the number of arrests made in former years. The chief c itolled the virtues of prohibition, declaring that there Is much less drunkenness in South Bend now than there was before the state prohibition law became effective. He pointed with pride to the fact that out of town automobillsts are invited to this city, criticising a former administration for not following this same policy. Declaring that there are no open houses of prostitution In the city today, the chief said that scarlet women have taken refuse In hotels and rooming houses, where it Is Impossible for the police to And them. Quoting from the annual report of the board of public safety, the chief told how the members of the department are divided, and deplored the fact that the city board of health uses four of his men in performing the duties of that board. He declared that much better service could be rendered tho city if these four men were placed on active police duty. The chief also told of the larye ! quantities of c ontraband liquor stored at the city hall, declaring that he hoped the present tession of the legislature would enact some law that would enable the department to dispose tf this liquor. He retrained from informing his hearers that the present law demands that all contraband liquor be destroyed immediately upon the conviction of those in whose possession it Is found. George Bernard, city marshal during the late 70s and early SOs, was the guest of honor at the luncheon. Mr. Bernard expressed his appreciation at being present.

A woman writer in a London paper says she has found a cure for sleeplessness. She calls it "Ay-zed" because it has to do with the letters of the alphabet. The title may puzzle Americans that are not aware that "ay" is the sounej a Cockney gives to the first letter of the alphabet, and that "zed" is how the English pronounca "z." Here is the scheme: "Tonight, say, you are wakeful. Iteview your friends: How many men or women you have known or do you know, whose Christian name begins with A? I prescribe Christian names because they are more lovable, and listable, than surnames. You will find that it Is like what we are told of drowning all your life will pass before you in a vision till you sink blissfully beneath the waves of sleep before one letter is disposed of."

LOCAL AND FOREIGN
CES LOWER RS HE AH Important Issues Slightly "Off" During Early Trading Monday. NEW YORK, Jan. 27. A broad trading market prevailed throughout today's session with no definite trend in values. Texas Co. stock staged a good rally of $5 per share on a rePort stating that that company had brought in a 20,000 barrel well. The larger operators have assumed, a waiting attitude and will probably not lo very much until the results are known of action to be taken on U. S. Steel dividend tomorrow. Further liquidation appeared in Cuban Cane Sugar based on opposition of stockholders to the proposed bond issue, while Distillers was stronger on advices that strong light will be made on prohibition. It is simply a. trading affair with news of an important nature lacking and market will probably continue uninteresting until some good news in obtained. NEW YOBK, Jan. 27.

Despite the solemn decision of the peace conference that English should be the official language of the sessions, the American and British delegates and the eloquent, gestureful interpreter are the only ones t abide by the ruling. All the others, including Chinese and Siarnes, speak French. The latest open meeting e,f tho peace congress drew speeches, but few gestures from the world's leaders. Premier Orlando was the one consistent exception. During his adtlres he fanned the air with a golden pen after the manner of a lly swnpper. Pres't Wilson, however, emphasized the final phras of the last sentence of his speech "The e-ry puls of the world scorns to beat" with short, s'ow jerks of his outstretched arm. as though marking time for the pulse beats. The effectiveness of this gesture w ascommented upon later by many. one. delegate raying. "He limed my pulso exactly."
