BRENNER IS SENT 70 JAIL AND FINED Proprietor of Irvington Coun- try Club Violates Restrain- “ ing Order of Judge Les'ie, DOESN'T RUN MORAL PLACE Nnety days in the coynty jail and a fine of $200 is the penalty meted out to George Brenner, proprietor of the Irvington Country club, for vio- lation of a restraining order issued by Judge Charles Leslie forbidding him from operating his resort for im- moral purposes. Brenner was led from\the court room in the custody of Deputy Sheriff Hogan and ‘lodged in the county jail. Habeas corpus pro- ceedings were immediately started and notice of appeal to the supreme court given by Attorney J. E. Von Dorn. Motions for the arrest of judgment, for the dismissal of the defendant and attempts to halt action of the court were overruled by Judge Leslie after a lecture in which the court reviewed evidence secured by the Rev. Thomas Evans of the Irvington Congregation- al church, F. A. Anderson, member of the school board, and other mem bers of the church who sleuthed about in the early-morning shadows. Expert Chicken Chef. When the case was called Wednes- day morning, Brenner, who was sur- rounded by his bondsmen, took the witness stand in his own defense. Cross examination by County Attor- ney George A. Magney disclosed the fact that Brenner is known as an ex- pert chef and that he makes a special- ty of serving chicken dinners after midnight, these dinners beirig ordered by automobile parties” from Omaha and vicinity. . In reviewing the evidence justify- ing finding Brenner guilty, Judge Leslie said: "Eviqence presented has not been as specifi¢ as desired, yet it*is conclu- sive. The hotel is not conducted along the lines on which respectable hostelries are orcrntedA It is an in- sult to the intelligence of this court to ask that stories tending to show the respectability of the place be taken as truth. Brenner has pot di- vulged the names of guests nor has he shown that he had not violated the restraining order, Mr, Sheriff, take him to jail.” ~ DEATH RECORD.
