Mrs. Rackliffe had a permit from the chief of police to have the re- volver, he contended, and she was | being annoyed by the noise on the next door property, Judge Traceski denied the motion, and before calling Mrs. Rackliffe to the stand, Attorney Gaffney called the court's attention ‘to ha2r nervous temperament aund said she is being treated by Dr. Flanagan. Mrs. Rackliffe testified that she! has lived at 90 Greenwood street for | 41 or 42 years and she has the sig- | natures of 28 residents of the neigh- borhood to a remonstrance against the alleged nuisance caused by the milk_company employes. She said | conditions were ‘“horrible” and she was almost “insane.” It takes an hour or more to handle a truck load of milk in the middle of the night, she said, and the men use “the vilest of language and tell obscene stories” which she cannot help hea: ing in her home, which acts as a sounding board. Unable to Keep Tenants Tenants have moved out of her' property and prospective tenants have been driven away because of the noise. Leonard 8chade has gone out numerois times to warn the men to be quiet, and recently one of | them made & remark to her which | was 80 vile she would not repeat it in the presence of men. “If he sald it to the mother of any of you men here T am afraid he would not live very long,” she declared. Cross-examined by Assistant | Prosecuting Attorney W. M. Green- stein, Mrs. Rackliffe said Chief Hart gave her permission to have a re- volver. She lives alone and she feels safer when there is a revolver handy, she said, especially since Leonard Schade saw & man trying to crawl into her house late at night, through a window. She said she has com- plained to the police and to the R. G. Miller company officials, yet she can get no relief from the racket. “I cannot get justice,” she asserted. Mc Once Took Gan As to her manner of carrying the revolver on the night in question, Mrs, Rackliffe said she held it behind {her and the witness who said she | had it in fro f her told a lie. She denied that Chief Hart had ever taken the revolver from her, but | over the fence to get at him, she sald, but she brandished the re- volver, not intending to shoot him but to frighten him. 8he said her husband always had twe or three revolvers in the house and she be- came familiar with them, having fired them frequently “so a revolver does not mean to me what it does to some people.” ‘The milk company employes have turned their horses into her garden, destroying her grounds and other- wise annoying her, she said. When !she was unable to sleep last Friday jnlght she put the revolver in her | pocket and went out, scarcely realiz- ing that she had taken it. Cannot Have Revolver Again Attorney Gaffney contended that i the state had not proven a case. The | woman was in a nervous condition because of the nuisance which she | is living beside, he said. Mr. Green- | stein replied that the purpose of the ! atate In bringing the prosecution was not to exact a penalty or a jail sen- tence, but Mrs. Rackliffe was not the type of person who should have a revolver. She could not remedy conditions which she complained of by carrying a revolver. Judge Traceski said the facts did not warrant a finding of guilty. Mrs. Racklife had a revolver with the knowledge of the chief of police, and the disturbance between her and the milk company seemed to be something for the civil court to handle. Mrs. Rackliffe should be careful, he said, about handling firearms. After court Chief Hart said the revolver ‘would not be given back to Mrs. Rackliffe.

AMERICA CHANGES FOREIGNERY' SINY {New Crimes Replace Those Pe- culiar to “01d Country” London, May 7 (®—Voices from Hollywood are raising pandemonium in British motion picture circles, Ichoes of the disturbance are to be found almost daily in the British press, where acrimonious critics have been asking how it happens that Yankee talkies with their ob- viously American brand of English speech should be packing British picture theaters virtually unopposed by made-in-England talking films.

Come in and talk it over, SUPERTWIST CORDS With the New Improved Pathfinder Treads O'NEIL TIRE & BATTERY CO. 39 WASHINGTON STRELT TEL. 900 granted that the advent of talking pictures would mean the end of American domination in the picture fleld here. English audiences, it was widely predicted, would enly laugh at the speech, mannerisms of American players, and turn natural- ly to the talking films in which Eng- lish would be spoken as it is spoken in England, Part of the prediction has been realized: there has been consider- able laughter in the cinema houses where American talkies are shown. One line, addressed to the heroine of a Hollywood picture now playing here, invariably brings loud guffaws from the spectators. It is: “I see you speak perfect English.” Appar- ently the audience takes a different view of the heroine's diction. However, this and other films con- taining (to the English) many amus- ing examples of American speech keep on drawing crowds into the picture theater. 8ome exhibitors estimate that an American talkie brings from 15 to 20 per cent more money into the box office than any other picture they can show. As a result, the rush is on to equip theaters for the projection of American electric dialogue films. One American electric concern is selling installations at the rate of 10 a day—for the American talkies re- quire American projection equip- ment—and that only adds to the ir- ritation of those who have been de- manding more speed in the develop- ment of a talking picture industry here. To date not a single feature length, made-in-England talking picture has been shown here, though numerous short subjects have reached the screen. Wherefore one London critic wrathfully writes: “We do the talking—but Holly- wood makes the talkies.” British producers, however, have not been as inactive as some of their critics assume. A tour of the studios hereabout reveals talking| picture plants in various stages of completion; none, it s true, as cost- ly or elaborate as several recently completed in Hollywood. 8ix months from now Hollywood talkies will have to compete with feature- length English productions. What worries the advocates of more Brit- ish haste is the thought that by the time the British talkies are appear- ing in formidable number the British picture-going public wi'l have become accustomed to hearing American English on the screen. Rightenow they not only listen to it, but gladly pay money to hear it. NCHES-ASHTON SUIT SETTLED he suit of John Pinches, Jr. against H. 8.
