LIVELY SCRAP AT | POLISH CARISTENIG Knives and Beer Glassgg Were Used As Weapons and the Participants Contribute Liber- erally to the Village Treasury Waverly—The members ol the Pollock colony at East Waverly indulged in a little knife practice last evening and the resull was one badly cut head and face, a hand slashed, and $20 added to the vil. lage treasury. A Pollock named Faltsko, lives in the upper part of a store build- ing belonging to W. H, Brougham. There was a christening there last evening and a large number of Polanders were present to help celebrate the event. Everything was peaceable until a man named Kraft, and several others who were not invited guests, entered the place. Kraft, in spirit of fun blew out one light and clapped his hat on another man’s head. Some of the combatants had knives while others chose beer glasses for.weapons, and the fight waxed fast and furious The complete facts in the case could not be definitely ascertained, but it was shown that Tony Koop~ chock had a knife which he used freely and his wife was wieldiag a beer glass very effectively. During the melee. Mrs. Koopchock seized a knife blade, which was drawn through her hand, cutting it se- verely. Kroft was also striking at everything in reach with a beer glass. Oae Wesley Yousecoop got ncar to Koopchock and had his head and face badly cut. The whole party was haled irto court and it took Judge Hoagland two hours ‘to ascertain just what had happened. At last through the aid ofan interpreter, who tran- slated the babel of voices into intelligible English, it was decided that Craft and Koofschock were the parties most to blame, and they were held on the complaint of one of the parties who was pres- ent during the fight. Kraft pleaded guilty and paid ten dollars. It took Koopchock until this forenoon to determine whether he was guilty or not,when he concluded he was. He also was fined ten dollars, which he paid.
