Kirkham sentence him r to jail for thirty days. As soon as he recovered his thoughts Clark arose and in a true poetic manner shouted across the court room. “I will appeal Right off the reel.” On Rampage Yesterday. Clark’s case was continued on pro- bation from a week ago, when he was arrested for breach of the peace at his home. 'his morning Mrs. Clark testified that her husband has not im- proved and that yesterday he used vile language and was abusive, finally driving her and her children as well as his father out of the house. Offi- cer William Hayes testified to this and said Clark told him he \\'m\ld' have to break in the door if he wanted to get in when he tried to make peace in the family. After Mrs. Clark had left the wit- ness stand Prosecutor Klett asked her | a question, whereupon her husband leveled his finger at her and roared: “You'r not on the witness stand now.” Has But One Right Hand. Called to the stand himself, Clark was asked to hold up his right hand and take the oath. “Here it is,” he said, “it's the only one I've got. The other is the left hand.” He then ade and wa started in on a long tir- interrupted by the Pros- ecuting attorney. Pecved at the in- terruption Clark told Prosecutor Klett that “you don’t know this game.” \ It being evident that Clark was un- der the influence of liquor the judge asked him if he had not been in a saloon this morning. “No,” thundered Clark and once more became so objectionable in his talk that the court warned him that he would send him to jail for con- tempt of court unless he behaved him- self. This warning had no effect for Clark simply responded “That’s up to vou, not to me.” The accused then shouted for the court or prosecutor to ask him “just one” question and he would tell them a few things. “Have you been drinking morning” asked the prosecutor. 0, T haven't,” he replied. He certainly has,” interiected Judge Kirkham “Thirty days in Jail’ this Gift to Policeman. “I ‘will appeal right off the reel” shouted Clark. Bonds were fixed at $200 and he was led down stairs, pro- testing volubly, to be locked up until his bondsman arrived. While being | searched Clark again objected to the “indignity” and when a can of tobac- co was taken from him he turned scornfully to Officer Frank English and said “Here, give this to Frank, he needs it.” Bonds were furnished by Proprie- tor McCabe of the York Hotel Events Tonight | High class photo-plays, Fox’s thea- ter.

What Dr. Strong has done for Serbia can be scarcely realized, and he is full of thoughtfulness and kindness for all he meets. We find the food good. We buy the tenderest chickens for a song, fresh eggs are abundant, and all kinds of vegetables and frults .. Hospitals Secured. “I must tell you about our work here. We have at last secured a building for our hospital—an alms house, some of the old inmates to re- main for the present. Our equin- ment has reached Saloniki.
