Sargis is said to owe a number of his fellow Armenians money, but has refused to pay them saying that he is going to join the army. The bat- tle on Saturday was in the nature of intensive training, for Peter is alleged to have told Sargis that six of the men he owed money were going to lick him, one licking a day for six days. They immediately opened for business. After devious thrusts and parrys, Peter was cast into a boot black’s chair for the count and the police arrived. 1'The case adjourned from yesterday came up for trial in the police court this morning. The men were charged with assaulting each other. Jacobs was represented by Lawyer P. F. Mc- Donough and Bagdisarian was repre- sented by Lawyer A. W. Upson. Po- licemen May and Storey testified that they saw bath of the men fighting at the corner of Main and East Main streets at 5:25 o’clock Saturday eve- ning and arrested them. On the witness stand Peter said that Sargis owed him a board bill they met on Main street Saturday night and one of Peter’s friends urged him to collect, but Peter replied that he had put the matter in the hands of his lawyer, whereupon he sald Sargis pushed him into a window. Sargis told him that he would not pay him as he was going to join the army and that if he ever came up on ‘Walnut Hill park, near the camp he would shoot him. Sargis when called to the witness stand produced papers to show that he had applied for enlistment in the First Connecticut Infantry but had been rejected. He said that Peter showed him a bank book Saturday night and told him that six of his creditors were going to lick him and chip in $2 each to pay the fine. Then the fight started. He said his country- men wanted to lick him for trying to enlist. He denied that he had a re- volver with which he threatened to shoot any of his creditors, who asked him for money. The court found both men guilty and fined them $5 and costs each. The Orzechowski Scandal. Leo Orzechowski and wife were in court this morning, the former charg- ed with non-support. His wife said that she had been married four years, has one child and is again to become a mother. She accused her husband of going around with another girl and spending his money on his platonic friend rather than upon his lawfui wife. The husband told a different tale, however, alleging that his wife left him on April 18th, took $50 of his money and ran away to Passaic, N. J., FINE RUILDING FOR FOX & CO. G. Fox & Co.'s store, which is pictured herewith for the first time, will be a notable ad- dition to Hartford’s fine buildings. It is of masterful design by one of the best known architects of the country, Case Gilbert of New York, and from sub-basement to the roof of the eleven story structure will be the last word in modern department store con- struction. The main building, shown in the illustration, is rich and harmonious in design. Its frontage of 176 feet on Main street is ample to carry the eleven stories with pleasing effect, and aside from the massive metal marquees over the two wide entrances there is little in the way of ornamen- where she remained two months. He sald he took her back upon her re- turn, but she would not stay at home and frequently moving picture houses with other men. The court ordered Orzechowski to furnish a bond of $300 to pay his wife $5 a week or go to jail for 60 days. Other Cases. Stansilaw Savitski was also charged wit non-support. His wife testified that they have four children and that he does not give her enough money to pay the bills. ‘‘Stan’” protested that a man has got to have a few cents in his pocket when he goes down street and told about the little bill he ran up in a barroom. He was ordered to turn over more of his pay or go to ail. 1 Mrs. Whitewood, notified to appear in the police court this morning on the charge of contempt of court by failing to appear as a witness on Monday, again failed to appear this morning. The state promised that she will be in tomorrow. JESTER ENTERS CAR IN ECONOMY RUN With Two Official Observers He will Drive Saxon Six Over Mohawk . Trail for 300 Miles. M.
