PULLAR & NIVEN PLAYGROUNDS GLOSE WITH BIG FESTIVAL Attendance Has Been More Than 70,000 This Season The wlaverounds of this cky will | be officially closed on Saturday, Au-| gust 26, with a big play festival at “alnut Hill park. The Philharmonic band will be in attendance and an interesting program will be carrled out: The exercise will represent as rearly as possible the work done at | the respective grounds during the sea- son. Games will be held for the lit- tle folks, races for the older children, folk dancing and drills and kite fly- ing. This season has been the most suc- cessful for the playgrounds since their opening in this city, During the seven weeks the attendance has been over 70,000, which breaks all previous rec- ords, At the annual meet of the play- | grounds held recently the Smalley | school children proved decisively | that they have the best athletes by | scoring a hundred points, their near- est competitor having about sixty. A | large champlionship banner was REPARTEE AS SHE IS SPOKEN ON “AVENUE Mr. “Jimmy” Boyle Engages In Usual Verbal Frolic Language not used in polite circles was heard this morning in police court during the trial of James Boyle, charged with breach of the peace, al- leged to have been committed last Saturday evening. Sharp tilts between the accused and the prosecutor enliv- ened the proceedings, which were not devoid of some humorous ph; Judge James T. Meskill occupied the bench and Attorney Daniel E. O'Keefe represented the accused, who entered a plea of not guilty. Mrs. John Parsons, a youthful look- ing woman, was the chief witness for the state. She testified that while seated on her veranda at 169 Hartford avenue with her sister, talking with Walter Doehrner, Boyle with several companions passed the house. The ac- cused made a rk which she did not hear and when she spoke to him he retorted with harsh epithets. She at once reported the matter to the offi- cer on the beat. Cross examined by counsel for the defense, Mrs, Parsons admitted that she might have called Boyle “a bum,” but denied that she said he was “a jailbird” or that she would send him back to jail where he belonged. She also denied that she was enjoying a ‘“can of beer” because she doesn’t drink. Florence Schmidt, a sister of the witness, corroborated her testimony. Doehrner, who was {in company with the Parsons woman when the al- leged trouble occurred, said that the language used by Boyle was “rather scandalous to tell the truth.” He said that he was on his way home from Volz's saloon with a pail of beer when Mrs. Parsons spoke to him about his health, asking him whether he had had the plasters removed yet. When the alleged trouble took place, Boyle exercised his vocabulary. The accused took the witness stand and said In company with friends he was on his way when in front of Pat Delaney’s house he whistled as had been his custom to do for some time, and when he did Mrs. Parsons said, “That’s Boyle, the bum. He's a jail- bird and I will send him back again.” He remonstrated with her, whereupon Mrs. Parsons used language which re- flected upon the character of his ter and mother, causing him to retort in a similar manner and in the same language used by Mrs. Parsons. On cross exmination Boyle said the entirs troubls was due to the woman. Asked about saying “Good evening” to Doehrner, he denied that this was so. “I take it that ‘gond evening’ is not in your vocabulary,” said Prosecutor Klett. “I can speak just as good English as you,” Boyle shouted at the attorney. “You have a pretty rotten tongue, haven’t you Boyle?” asked Prosecutor Klett. “Yes, and so has she,” was Boyle's retort. Jeremiah | Swansor Michael Philip Mahoney, Francis Grifiin and Fred who were near the scene of the trou- ble, testified that the woman started {he entire trouble by assafling the character of the accused and members of his family. Bach heard the calling of “Boyle, the sum” by the Parsons woman. Prosecutor Klett In summing up made a brief review of the testimony, characterizing Boyle’s actions on the witness stand as that of “a hero” who had been in jail and because some of his friends were ih court felt proud about it. He also criticised Boyle about the proud manner in which he admit- ted that he was the possessor of a “rotten tongue.” Attorney O’Keefe, for his client, awarded to the victors. | The following program has been | srranged for the festival at the park: | Assemble—Raistng the Flag.

Mr. Dwyer has been a familiar argued that there had been justifica- tion for a breach of the peace, assert- ing that any man would rush to the | aid of his family when their oogd name was assailed.

An crder for probation placed on Boyle during the month of July was ordered revoked. Bonds in case of an appeal were placed at $100, there being no ap- peal, however, in the revoking of pro- bation. Hartford Man Fined. J. S. Weber of Hartford pleaded guiity to the charge of violation of an ordinance in leaving his team un- hitched on Broad street yesterday aft- ernoon. Officer McCabe made the ar- rest after the horses had run away And were caught on Main street. Weber said it was a case of ignorance of the law on part of one of his employes. The horses were being fed at the time and according to the Hartford custom are not hitched. He was willing to pay a fine if the law was violated and Judse Meskill imposed a fine of $3. A Brave Youth.

Prosecutor Klett stated that last evening the ac- cased struck a sister of the complain- ant and when the gallant little fellow went over to ascertain the reason for the assault, Kolodny punched him on the jaw and then applied his shoes to the boy’s stomach, causing him to be rendered unconscious.
