At this moment Magsey also happened to pass the 8pot, headed 'in: the opposite di- ncucn, lumped from .his truck and ‘lthaut any provocation - smashed the headlight on the other machine.

After a short parley it- was decided that Joe should proceed: to Mrs. Godzyk house and demfind some beer. Little Max, nt this moment was ter- rorized at seeing Joe peeping in through the window. He told his mother about it and the - window- shades were hastily drawn down. But this cold reception did not defer Joe from his purpose. He knocked at {the door and whon Mrs. Godyzk an- swered the cull he stated the purpose of. his visit. Mrs. Godyzk did not take very kindly to his request as she pushed him from the house with such force that he tumbled incw a heap on the steps.. Becoming indignant by such a cold reception, Joe at once proceeded to demonstrate his wrath by hurling a At thie time he was . fow rocks through the windows of the house with the result that six panes of glass were shattered. In court this morning Joe could not aceount for misbehaving other- wise than saying he was so drunk that he did not know what he was doing: He was fined $5.and costs for drunkenness and breach of the peace. Peter was assessed $3 with- i out costs' on the charge of drunken- ness. | Spectators in the court room were treated to considerable amusement { when .

Remembering Santamari’s threat a warant was sworn out for his arrest. In court this morning Santamari, made a stout ‘denial of all accusa- tions.
