aCECELIA DEVLIN.A Very Wicked Female Who Needs | Ata Taste of the Law.Cecelia Michaels-Devlin seems dete mined to give Dr. James T. Laughead and his wife no rest, and last evening between seven and eight a’olock, incompany with two other women, shemade a Sunday evening call at theIiaughead residence at 211 Chestnutstreet, making quite an unusual episodein that quiet neighborhood. The policwere notified by telephone by Mrs.Laughead that Cecelia Devlinand her partners had been thereand abused her shamefully, and she asked that Cecelia be arrested and she would see that she was prosecuted. Officers Early, Hyland, Murphy and Boll started for the Michael’s establishment. The inmates were saucy, and the police filled the place, arresting Emma Michaels for being the keeper, Cecelia Devlin, (her daughter) May Hudson and Maggie Riley for being inmates and Chas. Watson for associate ing. They were all in police court this morning before Justice Goldman. They appeared with Lawyer Harper, and the whole outfit pleaded not guilty. After the evidence was submitted, counsel for the defense set up absence of proof on a technical point. The court overruled that, however, and fined the keeper $10and costs, the girls each $5 and costs and bound Watson over in the sum of 850 to the Circuit court. It seems^bout time that some measures ate being taken to suppress this Cecelia Devlin nuisance.TESTIMONIAL.
