T want him | |sent to jail where he will have to| work,” said Prosecuting Attorney J. | |G. Woods in police court today, in | the case of James Smith, aged 44, who was before Judge H. P. Roche on charges of drunkenness, breach of the peace and assault, and com- |mon drunkenness. He pleaded guil- ty to drunkenness and being a com- mon drunkard, but he said he did not recall having been in a fight with Joseph Birmingham, aged who is employed on John Newton's farm in West Hartford. | Roche revoked the previous suspen- | sion of a three months' jail sen- tence in Smith's case and added 60 | days on the new charges. In Birm- ingham’s case, a jail sentence of 30 |days was imposed on charges of | drunkenness, breach of the peace | jand assault, execution of the sen-| [tence suspended with the under- | ! standing that it will be made ope |ative on his next conviction. | Smith was before Judge M. D. Saxe Saturday morning, Officer John | Liebler having arrested him on | Hartford avenue after a hard strug- gle. At that time, Attorney A A | Greenberg asked for leniency, telling | the court that Smith had come to | New Britain from a farm on request |of the attorney who was handling a |matter for him. Smith agreed to | {leave town and behave, so Judge | |Saxe suspended the jail sentence, | {only to have Sergeant Feeney and | | Officer Dolan find Birmingham and | | Smith in a fierce fight in the base- | |ment of an old barn near the Elihu | Burritt homestead off Main street, | opposite East Main street, about 2 |o'clock in the afternoon. | According to the testimony of the | police, Smith kicked Birmingham in |the eye and both were covered with | blood, while upwards of 50 small bovs looked on. Prosecuting Attor- |ney Woods told Judge Roche the | |men were acting like “mad beasts,” | Birmingham said he had not been |arrested in almost two vears, and | on account of this fact, he escaped going to jail. It was Smith's 66th | appearance in court. | Insult Officer, Caught After Chase | Frank Holst, aged 18, of 188 Grove street, charged with drunk- enness and breach of the peace; Al- fonse Labieniec, aged 20 of Kensing- ton and Benny Szestowicki, aged of 45 Tapp avenue, Stamford, charg- ed with breach of the peace, were warned by Judge Roche that they will be classed as second offenders if they come before the court again and will be dealt with accordingly. Because of his reluctance to give them police records in their youth, | he suspended judgment, Officer Cornelius Keough testified | | | that he ordered the trio away from the rear of the Schupack building | |on Main street at 3:20 this morning and they drove away in an automo- bile throwing a shower of vile lan- | guage at him. He gave chase and |arrested them on Broad street. Su- pernumerary Officer Lesevicus cof | roborated Officer Keough as to the | |language, but the three youths de- nied their guilt.

His wife testified that he came home Saturday evening in an ugly mood and slapped her face after she re- fused to drink with him. She told her 13 year old daughter to call the police and he threatened to “knock the child coid” if she went out. Raczkowski, who was represented by Attorney Thomas F. McDonough, testified that his wite had not clean- ed the house or prepared supper Saturday and when he came home he scolded her. *“No money, no sup- per.” she told him.
