Proceedings in the alderman's office yesterday will bo of no little Interest to proprietors of unlicensed saloons, if there are such on this side. No less than three wore arrested yes terday on tho charges of selling with out n license, selling on Sunday, and the proverbial selling to minors. Arraigned before Alderman Lentes on these charges was Martin Rablengo, of 1110 'Prospect avenue. Max Fire- stlne, of Raymond court, be It said, who manifests, he states, no small de gree of anxiety In the morality of South Scranton. gave the information for the arrest. The hearing took place In Mr. Lentes' court last night. Sev eral witnesses for the prosecution tes tified that they drank Intoxicants In the defendant's house, and several more witnesses for the defendant, In cluding two Ice men and a brewery driver, swore that they never saw or drank nnythlng harder than soft drinks In Rablego's saloon. Alderman Lentes, notwithstanding the weighty evidence for the defense, held Hublogo in $300 ball for his ap pearance nt court. It was furnished. John Hoettcher, of Prospect avenue.
