He pleaded guilty in police court this morning, to charges of drunk- enness and assaulting Samuel Falk, and after the latter testified that he tur- day evening near Talcott street, and was punched in the face by Rysko, the latter took the stand and ad- mitted the offense, although he did not recall committing it. He went to a party Saturday and had several drinks of wine, he said, with the re- sult that he had became intoxicated for the first time in his life. He has been told that he aulted Falk and be is willing to take anyone's word for it, but it cannot be proven by him because he cannot recall that or any other incident occurring after his last drink. : Judge Hungerford took into con-! sideration the fact that Rysko \\m]" not been arrested before and sus pended judgment on the drunken- | ness charge. Imposing a fine of $5, | costs remitted, on the assault charge, he warned Rysko that he connot ex- pect to be allowed to go about the city committing assault, and he must be careful hercafter.

CHANGES URGED N | BOOK OF PRAYERS (Continued From First Fage) Both the bride and the bridegroom would repeat the foregoing. It was this change that would eliminate the word “obey."” In the final responsc of the bride- groom according to the present mar- riage service, the following is re- peated: | “With this ring T thee wed, with n all my worldly goods, I thee endow: ! In the name of the Father, the Son! and the Holy Ghost, amen.” The bishop proposed that bridegroom should say: “With this ring I thee wedp wit my body I thee honor, and all my worldly goods I with three share.” The proposed new prayer book no of never be lawful to put asunder those whom thou by matrimony hadst made one.” The marriage praver now said dur- ing the servi hat they may both be fruitful in the procreation of children,” would become a prayer to bestow ‘“‘upon these two persons the heritage and gift of children.” The next prayer no longer would affirm that God appointed ‘‘that out of man woman should take her be- ginning,” and that God *didst teach that it should never be lawful to put asunder those whom thou by matrimony hadst made one. The words “and obedient” also were omitted from the revised ver- sion of the new prayer in conform- vow which would eliminate the word “obey. A special prayer was recommend- ed by the bishop for use at crema- tions. In part, this prayer read as follows: “—commit his body to be con- sumed by fire.” This phrase would be available for use instead of the present form: “——commit his body, to ground, earth to carth, 'ashes ashes, dust to dust.” The latter form constitutes a por- tion of the regular prayer for the dead. In his speech of submittal, th archbishop emphasized that “revis- fon is abundantly necessary.” “Indeed,” said the archbishop, has been imperatively demanded. “This alternative book is permis- sive only. It s in no sense forced on those who do not wish to use it." the to it The Most Wonderful Pills in the Nevery continent, in every country —to the remote, far corners of the | earth-—Brecham’s gentle laxative pills have been famous for nearly 100 years.
