Walter Krych, arrested vesterday, was arraigned before Judge James T. Meskill in police court this morning on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses, It was claimed that Jast October he wooed one Eva Andrejick of Bast Main street and succeeded in separating her from §700 which she™had saved. Judge Meskill found probable cause and the accused was bound over to the next term of the superior court in bonds of $1,500. Mawyer W. F. Mangan appeared in court also to make a motion that the forfeiture of a bond of $100. put up by Peter Szparkow for the ap- pearance of a friend charged with breach of the peace, be erased. Law- yer Mangan explained that the bondsman was not to blame for the non-appearar of the accused and would suffer, while the accused would go free. Judge Meskill admitted that it would work a hardship and he dis- liked to be a party to it, but rules are rules and the pcople must be made to understand that the court is not to be trifled with e denied the motion = ENDEAVORERS ENTERTATNME The Endeavor Circle Memorial church will tainment at 7:45 o'clock ning.
