Mrs. Snow plead- guilty to the charge and said she n in “her driveway. d !stop digging holes Sed warned two of the Nichois children | lumbus. ‘When they told her they would not stop Mrs. Snow took hold of Helen and led her oft the premises. Mrs. Snow said the Nichols children had frequently called her names and made ‘p~es and gestures at her. The story told by the Nichols contin- gent was that Helen Nichols was on the sidewalk and touched the fence adjoining the Snow property, which so incensed L d‘ 3 Mrs. Snow that she came out and shook adies the child, and pushed her to the side- Ladics’ walk. This was witnessed by two broth- ers of the little girl and her mother. The mother said that her daughter was sick all night as a result of the experience. Messrs. Snow and Nichols each served as attorneys for their respective spouses, in cross-examirning the witnesses on the opposing side and at. times the arguments waxed fast and furious. Mr. Nichols, in making a statement to the court, said that he had nothing against Mr. Snow, but his wife was an “agitator” and fre- quently without reason chased his chil- dren from the sidewalk in front of her home with a ‘broom. 4 G Judge Dean,-however, was /of the opin- ion that the mattér was too trivial t6 be brought before the court and said it ap- peared to him as though “a mountain was, being made out a molehill” He suspended judgment in the case.

In this story, which was written by Isabelle Johnston., Miss Bar- riscale was directed by William Parke. It ‘appears when Madge Graham (the character Miss Barriscale plays) left ‘Greenwich Village with her musician husband. whom she met there, that the husband- carried along some fool- ish ideas. about a “soul mate” whom he begins to need, he thinks, when the burdens of married life and bring- ing up chlldren begin to weigh. So the former, “Village” girl finds her- self opposing”a wealthy meddlesome wu- man who is trying to give the hus- band -the - “sympathy which she whis- pers to- -him he needs. And the form- er villager acquits herself in fine woman- Iy fashion, making a great sacrifice for her husband. and showing him that her heart is in the right place. Miss Barris- cale ‘does .a remarkable piece of act- ing in “A Woman Who Understood.” one which will win her new friends, and which will be eagerly received by the ardent Barriscale_admirers. For the second fes tire the Breed will present “Sky-Eye ‘This i8“a crclonic air romance of death defying escapedes, dynamic in_thrills and burning out one of the small motors. The water that ran down the hills from the residential section did some damage, many cellars on Main and alley streets beingV flooded when the sewer inlets be- came clogged with rubbish.

At the telephone ofhi it was reporied that dbout seventy-five lines embracing 375 stations were placed temporarily out of commission. At least five trees were struck in the town of He- bron where the storm appeared to be un- usually severe. A team,of horses near the Amston station became frightened at 2 clap of thunder and ran away, but the animals were checked in their flight be- fore any damage was caused. A. B.
