POLICE CIRCLES QUIET ON NEW YEAR’S EVE Gertrude Jones and George Anderson Furnish Diversion in Recorder’s Court By Re cital of “Lover’s Quarrel.” New Year's Eve was exceedingly quiet in police circles. The entire docket this morning was completed In 46 minutes. A majority of the cases were against those who had tmbided a little too freely In celebrating the death of the old year. In every In stance, the recorder Imposed a fine of $ ! and costs, suspending the three when the offender was a newcomer. Every case was one of Just an old fashioned plain drunk, no one putting any frills on his celebration. Gertrude Jones and George Ander son, members of the colored set, fur nished an Interesting diversion in the recital of a "lover's quarrel.” It seems that Gertrude and George have been "keeping company" for some little time As a token of his affection. George had presented his lady love with a beautiful "diamond'' pin. Last evening Gertrude met George and pleaded for a New Year's kiss, George, whose ardor seems to have cooled slightly, objected. Insisting that It was not proper to present New Year kisses until 12 o'clock. He also requested the return of his pin. Her woman's pride aroused, Ger trude took George to task for the change In Ills attitude. The argument waxed warm, several "love licks” being exchanged. A heartless officer overheard tho argument—hence their uppeurance In court this morning. Ils Honor, In suspending IS of a fine of $3 and costs Imposed upon each, took the opportunity to deliver a homily upon the advisability of kiss ing a women when, by so doing, trou ble can he avoided ALLENDALE NEWS Allendals, Ga.—-Mrs Williams Sand ers, of Eairfax. died last night.
