INOBODY CAN TELL WHAT STARTED IT Badal, Baba and Jacobs, Princi- pals, Certainly Did Not To say that influence of Ananias was felt in the police court this morning in the case of Paul Badal and Peter Baba, charged with as- saulting John Jacobs, a milkman, is the situation in mild terms. The court suspended judg- ment, holding the opinfonr that the case was a hot weather affair in which he could find no reason to be- lieve either side. The cause of the trouble may have been an argument over the respective merits of the milkman’s horse and Baba’s automo- bile. The milkman is alleged to have remarked: “You have a rotten Ford,” to which the reply came: “You have a rotten horse” Then perhaps someone hit the milkman and he hit someone, smashing his milk bot- tles on their elbow, but, there is no tell- ing. The trial occupied considerable of the court's time. Lawyer Frederick B. Hungerford appeared for the de- fense. Joseph Young was before the court on the charge of breach of the peace. His wife testified that he insulted her explaining HAVE YOU GOT A REALLY SPORTY.

He was sentenced to 10 days in jail, but judgment was suspended and he was put on probation. Tony Kaborkus was charged with assaulting Peter Simonus in an East Main street siloon. There was an argument over the part the United States should play in the war in the course of which Tony hit Peter on the head with a pool ball, according to his own admission. Tony was fined $10 and costs. The case of Joseph Millowitz, charged with a violation of the liquor law, adjourned from Monday, came up for trial this morning. Millowitz pleaded guilty and on Prosecutor Alling’s_statement of the facts of the case a fine of $10 was im- posed. The cases of Joseph Cassarino, charged with a violation of the health ordinances and Wlaclaw Stasinlewicz, charged with assault were continued until tomorrow. Two boys were tried in chambers for the theft of some tomatoes and were put on probation. MAIL FROM HOME? ASK MAJOR SMITH Mgior FRANK W- SMITH< Major ‘Frank W.

Uncle Sam is not going to take chances with defective eyes, ears, teeth, hearts, feet, etc., among his men at the front since each man and then sent home on ac- count of preventable physical disa- bility means a dead loss to the na- tion and hindrance to the remainihg men.
