Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Weekly Star, April 25, 1913, p. 1. FULL PENALTY WAS NARROWLY ESCAPED By "Tiger" Keepers, 'Tis said, Who Were Handed a Speedy Sentence. The quickest time on record was made in a blind tiger case in the circuit court, last week. George Shively and Walter Whisenand were arrested on Sunday for running a blind tiger, and on the following Thursday they were convicted. The jury was out until 10 o'clock at night over a disagreement as to the penalty. Some favored the full extent of the law, but finally an agreement was reached on $75 fine, and 30 days in the county jail. Shively was a cabman, and has been in this kind of trouble before. In two other cases against him the jury disagreed. During the local option campaign two years ago a man sold about 150 bottles of beer within one square of where a "dry" meeting was being held on the street. It is said that this man was Shively. This makes four men now in the county jail serving sentences of 30 days each for running blind tigers, and boarding at the county's expense. And there are a half a dozen more cases to be tried.
