SOLD BEER TO A FATHER.
Kansas City, Kas., Grocer Fined $200 and Sent
to Jail for Sixty Days.
Recently Joseph Snellin and his mother moved from their home in Kansas City, Mo., to 609 North Forth street, Kansas City, Kas., so that the father of the family might be free from the temptation offered by open saloons.
The son swore to a complaint Tuesday afternoon against George Zelzenok, a grocer, 608 North Fourth street, Kansas City, Kas., charging him with selling beer. The case came up yesterday morning in the Kansas City, Kas., police court.
"This man sold my father a case of beer," Joseph Snellin testified. "Mother and I have worked a long time to cure father of the drink hait. It made me angry when we learned that Zelzenok was selling to him."
Zelzenok denied the charge. He was fined $200 and sentenced to sixty days in jail.
