PICTUR! DON'T AVAILL. As Evidence in Police Court They Are a Failure, A German named Gereke was in"police court yesterday as complainant against Edward and Thomas Gla charged with having and his son with bricks, and also beaiing and kicking him. The trouble arose from a little ball playing the defendants were engaged in. Gereke lives near the defendants and a strawberry patch, It has been the custom of the Gladdens ball over the fence and when the sphere would get into his strawberry beds, he claims the Gladdens would fol- amb down his vines. On while the Gladdens were playing the ball flew into the berry patch. Gerceke there and threw the ball into an ad- joining yard. One of the Gladdens thereupon assaulted him. He and his son attempted to defend themselves, but were struck by bricks and otherwise used up. As apart of their defense the Glad- dens, one of whom is an architect, pro- duced in court an elaborate drawing in colors, which purported to be an instan- taneous photographic representation of the scene, The clder Gereke is shown to be armed with a blood-red knife and a brick, and the boy is del bloodthirsty monster armed with a brick and an ax. The ax is also blood-red. The testimony did not bear out the picture. It was shown that neither of the Gerckes had a knife or ax, and that instead of GGladden being a terror-stricken individual, as he is pictured, he was de- cidedly the assailant. Both Gladdens were fined $10. larger dden, whom he wlted himself A New Bullding Association, Articles of incorporation were filed in the county clerk’s office yesterday of the Lowe Avenue Building association.
