He showed his mouth, minus one tooth, and numer- ous bruises about his body as evidence of the assault. Has “Some Uniform.” George Haber, the Thompsonville brother, appeared in court in the most giddy costume seen in this ecity In years. His garments would put the uniform of a Mexican generalissimo to shame. He was adorned in a brown suit with fancy cuffs on the sleeves | and trousers and profusely decorated with pearl buttons. Buttons adorned | the coat, the trousers and were even sprinkled about the bottam of the trousers. He and a couple of other state witnesses testified to the fight but none of them saw Schmidt knoek out Frank's tooth. All agreed that there was a fight in the back yard later. Schmidt Denies Charges. In his own defense Schmidt told the court that Haber had become offensive and had threatened to hit him. When he could stand his abuse no longer he ejected him but did not strike him, | he claimed. Slepski gave the same testimony and added that he himself took Haber's hat out to him and was punched for so doing. He claims to have neglected to hit Haber after he Lad been punched himself.
