Ganus was bound over to the district court for trial. The plaintiff in the action is Dor- ethy Towne, one of Casper’s “red- light’? madams, who is among those who pays the city $50 a month for the privilege of conducting a house of illfame. ° She first made use of Ganus’ | offices, she sals, in pawning a coat for $35. On this occasion he de- livered the cash. Later, she alleges, she entrusted him with the $70 to redeem the coat and he was in- structed to place the balance to her credit in the bank. That he appro- priated the $70 to his own use- and failed to make an accounting is the } Substance of the charge. At the preliminary hearing in jus- tice court it developed that Ganus had been given a license to operate without first filing bond and he pro- fessed ignorance of being required to furnish bond, an act authorized by city regulations for the protection of those using the services of a messen- ger. Bond is usually furnished in the sum of $200. In view of the fact that the al- leged loss is not protected by bond it.is said the city will be made de- fendant in a suit for the recovery of damages. At the preliminary hear- ing E. Richard Shipp represented At- torney M. C. Purcell, prosecutor. eee ee | City News a » While Mrs. B. B. Brooks was at- tending the meeting of the Federation of Women’s clubs in Cheyenne she was able to collect from the women present $340 to add to the education- al fund from which girls may draw to aid them in securing an educa- tion. The federation is helping girls to ge their education who otherwise would not be able to have the ad- vantages that a college or higher school affords one. No interest is charged on the money, but the girls are asked to pay it back whenever they are able to. S06, \s An alarm from Box 45 this morn- ing called the fire department to the home of Lafe Moore on Sussex street, between Center and Davi David street, just opposite the site for the new home of Casper's fire de- partment. Considerable damage was done to the front room of the house by fire, while the other rooms were damaged to some extent by water. The origin of the fire is unknown. ee «© Hollowe’en activities were confined to harmless jokes and pranks last night apparently for no violent harm to property or person was reported to police headquarters.
