WONEN GANT HD BEHIND CHILIRE fudge Holds Liguor Sellng Nother lor Superior Court “I am afrald that the situation has sot to the point where women with children believe they can do as they please and not be prosecuted,” re- marked Judge W. C. Hungerford in vpolice court this morning as he held Mrs. Rose Morawski, aged 37, of 247 Washington street, for superior court in $1000 bonds after finding lier gullty of viclation bt the lquor aw on two counts in her store at 9 Washington street. “That theory is wrong,” the judge con- tinued. “It has been admitted that she is a second offender but I do ot wish to‘wend her to jail. I will bind her over to superior’ court.” Mrs. Morawski, through Attorney Thomas F.' MeDonough, pleaded not guilty and said she had been ill for three days prior to the raid last Sat- urday afternoon about 4:30 o'clock, when a milk bottle partly fllled with alcohol was seized by Detective Sergeant Ellinger and Sergeants Flynn and O'Mara. Jennie Stefan- ski, aged 16, of 247 Washington street, testified that she worked in the store three days n request of Mrs. Morawski and she did not know the’liquor was there. She said many| men came in under the influence of liquor and bought cigarettes and to- bacco. She was obliged to call Mrs. Morawski to eject them, she sald. Sergeant Ellinger testified to. the raid, which was made after the search warrant was shown Mrs. Morawskl. Complaints had been re- ceived about the place by the po- lice, he said, and Sergeant O'Mara testified that he has seen men of drinking habits go in and out of the store. The sergeant said he and other officers have raided the store many times and convictions have been obtained in court on liquor law violation charges. Attorney McDonough contended that the state’s case was weak, as there was no evidence that liquor had been sold in the store and the fact that complainants who do not come into court and submit to cross examination tell the police the law is being violated is not sufficient to prove reputation. Nrs. Morawski has five children, he sald, and if convicted she will be a third of- fender, having been found, quilty twiee before. Attorney McDonough sald he realized that the argument of dependents has been used consid- crably in court to obtain leniency for women bw{ it s a fact and as uch it is bound to come to the front in cases of this Kind, he said. Wite Refused to Go Home Mrs. Mary Brennecke, aged 29, of 29 Millard street, was fined $3 and costs for drunkenness and her hus- band, Joseph Brennecke, aged 32, of the same address, had judgment suspended on charges of assault and breach of the peace. Officer Peter Cabelus testified - that Brem- necke complained to him ahortly after 9 o'clock last night that Mrs. Brennecke was intoxicated fn her mother’s home at 200 Hartford av- enue. He wanted her to go home, he <aid, but she was noisy and abusive and would not leave, Acting on the complaint the officer, accompanied by Officer Maurice Flynn, went to 200 Hartford avenue and found Mrs. Brennecke intoxicated, She accused her husband of having assaulted her and demanded that he be arrest- cd. The officer told her if one was arrested, both: would "be. " PBrennecke pleaded guilty to assault charge. He said he went to the home of his mother-in-law and found everyone in the house, in- cluding his wife, intoxicated. He asked her to leave with him but she refused and, aided by her mother | launched an attack of vile names against-him. He did not mear to assault his wife but a|blow aimed at her brother strucK her in the face. Mrs. Brennecke denied most em- rhatically that she was intoxicated. She wanted it understood that she does not drink but last evening she had just a little, probably a tea- spoonful, so she could not have been intoxicated, she claimed. About 4 p. m. yesterday she stopped at the home of her husband’s sister and had “some words” with her. The latter probably told Bren- necke his wife was intoxicated but it was not true, Mrs. Brennecke said. language towards her husband. He has never been on Main street with her 4n'the 12 years they have been. married and he never calls for her to accompany her when she is out wvenings, she said. Judge Hungerford started to ad-| vise Mrs. Brennecke to make an ef- fort to live without quarreling, but she showed a disposition to e the point and when she was quited by Court Officer Lanpher, Judge Hungerford said he had intended to suspend judgment, but now he would impose the fine. Fined 85 For Fighting Andrew Sariski, aged 23, of 78 Wilcox street and Louis Dehm, aged 19, of 45 Griswold street, were each fined $5 and costs and placed on probation for thirty days. They pleaded not guiity to the charge of breach of the peace and sald they were on Grave street about 10 o'clock last night to buy cider when Dehm was struck in the ankle by a stone, apparently thrown by some- one on the opposite side of the street. On going over to find out who threw the stone and why, Dehm said he was set upon by a crowd of young men. Sariski tol da similar story and sald he went to Dehm's assistance. Neither of the young men is employed. Sergeant O'Mara testified that he and Sergeant Flynn went to the corner of Grove and Orange streets in response to a telephone report of a street fight. They saw four young men going north on Grove street. Dehm ran but was caught by Ser- geant Flynn, and Sariski stood his ground. They admitted they had been in s fight, Sergeant O'Mara said. Admits Assaulting Garage Owner Frank Avells, aged 20, of 34 Tal- cott street, pleaded gullty to the charge of asssulting Hyman Gitla- vitz at the latter's garage at Elm and Ecruiour streets yesterday after- e | She denied she used improper| noon, and was fined $5 and costs, execution suspended. Judge Hunger- ford told him to remain away from the garage, as Giflavits had told him he did not want him there. Accord- ing to Avella, Gitlavitz called him a “crook” and he retaliated by punch- ing him in the mouth. Gitlavitz de- nied calling him names, and said he suspected a number of young men of having stolen equipment from cars stored in the garage, causing the loss of one tenant and injuring him financially.

Monday evening the bird flew away and Koloski traced its flight to a house at 12 Bartlett street, but when he asked Mrs. Sophie Rio for the bird, he was told, according to his complaint to Officer Maurice Flynn last evening, that the charge would be $10.

This concert has been arranged un- der the direction of the cantor, Rev. | Solomon Marwit, and will be ren- somplained that he made a disturb- 1, =, by a special choir of ten voices, Cantor Discount of Hart- 'ford and Mr. Gherman, baritone, will sing, and Mrs. Gherman will i play a violin solo. The earliest Jewish music is pre- served in the cantillations of the Bible. In the orthodox synagogue many parts of the Bible are still :chanted with a definite mode inter- ! preting the words. in a loose fashion. Each portion chanted ‘has.its spe- (cific characteristic and is so inter- ‘ preted—as for example the mode of has features of hope and consolation. Lamentations has a plaintive melanggoly character and the Songs of Songs and Ruth are both lyric in strath full of light- ness and joy. These chants are very ancient and hark back to a time when the Jew was yet tilling the soil of the Holy Land. In the many centuries of life in the Diaspora each local community evolved variations of the original melodies that have become the bases for the mass of present day syna- gogue music. Then too with the final development of the synagoguo as it is at present constituted and with the definite introduction of the official Cantor for chanting serv- ices synagogue music began to take a more definite form. Jewish mu- sic from many parts of the gorld and from many ages found its way into the present day synagogue S0 that today an analysis of the music | of the Synagogue will give a history 'of the Jewish people for almost two thousands years. 1t is perhaps due to the very im- portant role that music has held in the life of the ancient and medieval Jew that the modern Jew has pro- ducéd so great an array of well known musicians. The list of great musicians who were certainly in- fluenced by and in turn themselves affacted Jewish music would include an astonishing number our best known musicians. Thus, for ex- ample, in France there were Halevy, Bizet, Offenbach, and Hertz. In IGcrmany there have been Bruch, Meyerbeer, Mendelssohn, Brull, Hill, Gernsheim; in Italy, Franchetti and Rossi; and similarly in Austria and Hungary. Some of these musiclans were time and again forced to re- nounce their Judaism in order to gain recognition but their influence jon Jewish music is nevertheless clear and unaffected.

The west wing of the two-story brick structure was demolished. Two hours after the west wing collapsed, state troopers working under Charles Lane, chief of the fire marshal's division, reported they had found ten sticks of the explosive, with slow fuses still burning under the east wing of the school. Discovery of the additional ex- plosive prevented another explosion. Bath is a small town seven miles north of Lansing, Michigan, where the wounded were taken in ambu- lances to hospitals. The explosion which wrecked the west wing of the school at the height of the morning session was the third in Bath today. The first occurred at the home of A. E. Kehoe, sub- master, and the second wreeked Ke- hoe’s automobile, in which he was sitting at the curb in front of the school. Kehoe, with E. E. Huyck, prin- cipal of the school, were listed among the adult dead, while the toll of pupiis was estimated at mpre than 30.
