Patrolman Kelly heard a commotion at the street house and went to the place as it is believed by the police to have a bad character and for some time they been endeavoring to some dence against it When Kelly reached the spot he found that the two women and two men were in a noisy wrangle but the woman fearing the house was to be raided made a com- plaint as stated against Hayles and cured his arrest The whole four came to Police quarters but had been there only a stoit time when Lottie with the tears rolling down her cheeks went to Judge Coutier and beseeched him to allow the of the charge against The two had had a talk in the meantime and Lottie apparently feared to lose the friendship of the potter After some dis- cussion the withdrawal of the disorderly charge was allowed but no sooner had this been done than Captain Cleary entered a charge against the woman for keeping a disorderly house The prise of the Vandergrift woman was something sublime and if feigned was the perfection of the histrionic art She wept and wailed and declared her innocence in no uncertain tones She said the only reason for her arrest was that Captain Cleary was provoked because she did not
