The com- plaint alleges that on Sunday morning Comiski entered her home in the block on Main street about 10 o'clock a. m., while under the influence of liquor and struck her on the chest and at- tempted to choke her, also calling her a vile name, beside causing a disturb- ance. She called her busband and Tom Thumb and three other witnesses to substantiate her testimony. For the defense Comiski was the only witness. He claimed he boards down stairs, but about § o'clock Frank Smith called him up stairs to play cards. He went up and began playing poker, at which he lost $450, all the money he had with him; but he con- tinued to play on credit until he owed 99 cents, and when he could not pay they attempted to put him out. While ving he claims he bought two drinks of whiskay, paying 20 cents for each darink. ile he admitted feeling good, he pleaded not guilty to the charges. Judge Miller imposed a fine of $2 for assault, $1 for breach of the peace and $1 for intoxication and costs which amounted to $21.04. He paid. Attor- ney . J.
