It is true that our side of the house has never been friendly with them, having not even spoken to them in several years; but I cannot see why they should manu- facture a story out of whole cloth, unless it may be for petty revenge. “They have only stated one fact—that Rudde truly loved his wife and children. and realizing himself that he had tenden- cies toward insanity he deeded all his securit and _property to his wife. That she did mnot testify at the examination was because the true facts were kept from her in the fear that fatz would ensue upcn her ap- onfinement.

JUSTICE COOK CALLS FOR THE SHERIFF A Disturbance in His Courtroom. A CLIENT’S UNBRIDLED ANGER FORGETS THE CONSIDERATION DUE HIS HONOR. Z. Zelinsky Brands Attorney Perry a Liar and Precipitates a Fight ‘Which Is Quelled With Difficulty. A defendant untutored in the ways of the Jaw and the etiquette of its courts created a sensation yesterday in the courtroom of Justice of the Peace Cook. It was the case of John Quadt against Z. Zelinsky for material furnished. Attorney Perry represented Quadt and was pressing his claim vigorously. Dur- ing his argument in combating the claims of Zelinsky, he sai “I'll show that statement to be false! shouted Zelinsky, forgetting He rose to his feet and was pulling Zelinsky's coattails ving to calm his ruffled feelings. and try The irate litigant shook his elinched flst @t Attorney Perry and was ready for any kind of an encounter. Justice Cook took a hand in the proceed- ings at once. He told Zelinsky he would not tolerate such language and such ac- tion in his presence and would commit him for contempt. That that was no place for barroom brawling. As he has no bailiff to maintain order, his Honor dispatched a messenger to the Sherift’s office. Under Sheriff David Mar- tin and a deputy responded at once and restored the peace. After the parties at interest left the courtroom they renewed hostilities. The corridors rang with their verbal battle, attracting a large crowd. Sheriff Martin was again forced to assert his authority and the combatants finally left the building by separate entrances. The case was for the collection of a bill against Zelinsky for material used on the Affiliated Colleges building. He claimed it was not delivered in due season and in conseuence he was damaged to a degree sufficient to offset the first claim. After judgment was rendered against defend- ant he boasted that it would never be col- Jected, as he was execution proof, and the trouble is still brewing. Park Music To-Day.
