VCIOR PAYS FNE IN COURT Mountain View Squabble Aired Before Justice E. P., Prior—Run Down By Auto and Painfully Hurt—Prohibi- tionists Plan Fight Against License. Troyble between the Itallan. and Polish . residents of Mountain : View, which "hag "been brewing for several weeks, had an airing in court last night when Mrs. Pauline Chock was artaigned before Justice E. P. Prior on an assault charge, . Mrs. Chock, a frail little woman, was accused of as- saulting three Italian women of amazon proportions and her victims exhibited several cuts and body bruises as evidence of the success of the Polish woman’s attack. After listening to a recital of the day’s hap- penings, Justice Prior imposed a fine of §1 and costs, amounting to $9.50. Although she had a two-weeks-old baby in her arms during nearly the entire figt, Pauline was never in dis- tress and she put the “Italian forces to .rout, inflicted considerable damage before the retreat. Her victims re- quired the services of a physician be- fore they could make a call on Grand Juror M, A, Norton to swear out a warrant for their assallant’s arrest. Deputy Sheriff W, C. Hart subsequent- 1y placed Mrs. Chock under arrest and she was brought into court for a hear- ing last night, The fight took place yesterday af- ternoon and judging from the testi- mony presented in court it was a real battle. The Italian women, Mrs. Santo Mallle, Mrs. Lusia Grogiano and Mrs. Josephine Remmando, all neigh- bors, were passing the Chock place when a dos, owned by one of them, ran into the yard,. The families have been at swords points for weeks and when the canine crossed the lawn, Pauline “shooed” it away.. An argu- ment followed and in a féw minutes there was a géneral mix-up. Mrs, Chdck had a club which she used fre ly on the Italian belligerents. the fight became hot, the Polish wom-|| an laid her haby on the lawn and with both arms free she wielded her club eo_effectively ‘that ‘the Italians ran to cover,' Alvans Dr. L. H. Frost told the court of the injuries of the defeated women, all of them having welts ‘and briiises 'to re- mind them fof the fight. ' ‘As in the struggle earlier in ‘the day, it ‘wis three against one in court last even- ing, and Justice Prior found a pre- ponderance of evidence against the accused. Struck by Auto—Badly Bruised. Walter S. Bohonan is confined to his home on Bicycle street with. painful; though not serious injuries, sustained last - night when he was struck-.by an automobile, owned and driven by Wil- Harh 'W. Reed of Bristal. He has a bad scalp’ wound, a wrenched knee, torn ear and contusions about the body. The accident occurred on the New Britain road shortly after 8 -o'clock. Mr. Bohanan was out walking with his wife at the time. The Reed car ‘was on its way to Bristol. The driver turned to the side of the road to per- mit another machine to pass. He claims' his car was moving at a rea- sonable speed at the time, but he was blinded by the headlights on the other machine and failed to see the Bohonans until it. was too late to avoid hitting “ them. Mrs. Bohonan managed to keep out of the way of the machine, but her husband was net so successful. He was knocked down and rendered un- conscious. Mr. Reed stopped his car and brought the injured .man to the office. of Dr. J, N. Bull; who dressed his injuries. The matter was reported to Grand Juror M. A. Norton. The latter has not decided on what course he will pursue. Mr. Reed claims that he sounded his horn before he turned out for the passing machine, although Bo- hanan and his wife both declare they did not hear it. Plan Fight Aghinst License. Prohibition workers have decided to make an early start in the fight against the saloons in Plainville, which will be renewed in earnest in the fall, and the town will be rep. resented at a meeting to be held in the Congregational parish house in Bristol on June 8, when plans for the no-license campaign will be outlined. Bristol has been “dry” for the past two years and at .the fall election the temperance advocates will make a de- termined effort to prevent a reopens ing.of the saloons. They have in vited the Plainville prohibitionists to take a part in planning and campaign and the anti-saloonists in both places will probably work together to ban- ish John Barleycorn and his allles from their midst. In both Plainville and Bristol the license issue promises to overshadoew ley. are entertaining Miss Mildred Bradley of West Springfield. NOTICE.

Johnson in Solomon’s Role. First Selectman Johnson had a task requiring the wisdom of a Solo- man to perform this marning and as a result of his judicious declsion there will be two socials in the town hall this evening. Mr. Johnson has to arbitrate a dis- agreement between Fugene Sweet, an elocutionist and musician, and T. A. Lyman, representing the grange, both of whom had hired the hall for tonight, Mr. Lyman made arrange- ments some time ago with John F. Ceonlon, the janitor to use the hall for a dance and Wednesday George 8. Babcock, clerk of the board of select- men, made a contract with Mr. Sweet, who subsequently advertised a con- cert for Friday and Saturday nights.

The endurance-strain of long tours; the friction-test of fast . driving; the certain hold on glip= pery places—for all these Fire- stone building “extras” pile up comfort and lessen cost. Mr, Babcock has been accustomed to renting the hall and he was in !/ ignorance of the contract the janitcl§ had made for the dance. He com- municated with Selectman Johnson and as the latter was without know- iedge of Mr. Conlon’s action arrange- ments to rent the hall for the enter- fainment were made. Thig morning Mr. Sweet refused to make any change in his plans unless the town reimbursed him for the ex- penses he had already Incurred in ad- vertising- his entertainment. Mr. Lyman couldn’t see how he could call off the dance at this late date. Selectman Johnson settled the ar- gument by notifying Mr, Sweet that he could have the hall until 9:30, the dancers getting the use of it after that time. This arrangement was appar- ently satisfactory to both parties. Mr, Lyman acquiescing after the select- man ruled that the dancers would not be charged for using the building on account of the mistake. Brief Items, Mre., George M.
