fendant, with the intimation by the

Kimble, Esq., who declared .that he
hadn t had time to prepare the case
it was permitted to go over to the

In the case of the Commonwealth

v.-aj made that the defendant had en

ler, charged with fornication and

charged with assault and battery;
against Jos. Ackormau and others,
charged with assault and battery;
against Ira Rltch, charged with as
sault and battery.
C. A. McCarty, Esq., attorney for
Jos. Aokerman and others, made an
application for a continuance of the
case against his clients, on account
of the Illness of several Important
witnesses. His request was granted
Following the call of the bar,
when a number of motions were
made, and several Important orders
handed down, the case of the Com
monwealth versus J. Bradley Raw
lelgh was called.
" I have a plea of guilty to the
charge of larceny as servant," said
District Attorney M. E. Simons,
when the case against Rawlelgh was
taken up. It took just twelve min
utes to dispose of the Scott township
buttermaker's case.
The facts In the case as outlined by
the District Attorney were: " The
defendant was a butter , maker em
ployed by Geo. A. Smith to make but
ter up In the township of Scott, and
the charge Is that he sold this butter
and he received this money himself
and made no report to his employ
ers. Mr. Smith hasn't had time to
find out how much he had taken.
It's been such bad weather he
couldn't get around."
AVhen questioned by Judge Searle
it was learned that Rawlelgh, who
came from New York state, last
March, and denied ever having been
In trouble before, had made restitu
tion as. far as ho could, Rawjelgh ad
mitted having sold butter at three or
four different times, and pocketing
the proceeds.
Geo. A. Smith waB called upon to
state what ho knew about the mat
ter. He said that Rawlelgh came
here from Cooperstown, N. Y,, last
March. He declared that they had
no way of knowing Just how much
butter Rawlelgh stole. He rather
thought It might amount to $300 or
5400 worth.
Rawlelgh, who worked under a
man by the name of O'Connell at
Cooperstown, N. Y., denied that he
had been In trouble before, although
Mr. Smith stated that Mr. O'Connell
had written him recently that he got
Into alfllc ltles up there.
Chestor A. .Garratt, Esq., made a
plea to the Court asking the Judge
to show mercy to his client on the
ground that this was his first offense,
and that he has 'promised to pay
'back all he owes.
Declaring that under the Indeter
minate sentence act passed by the
Legislature he had very little discre
tion In the matter, Judgo Searle
soundly lectured the prisoner, say
ing: " Now Mr. Rawlelgh you are a
man of Intelligence, and you didn't
have to take this butter and sell it.
You not only took this butter, but
you deceived those who employed
you. We can see no excuse for you
whatever. You made trouble for the
patrons of the creamery and for
those who employed you, besides
causing an actual loss to them."
At this point Judge Searle asked
Mr. Smltb. whether the creamery at
Sherman was closed, ana was lniorm
ed that It shut down several weeks
Concluding his remarks, Judge
Scarle said: " Tlio sentenco Is that
you pay the costs of prosecution;
that you pay a lino of $25 to the
' Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; and
' that you undergo imprisonment In
: the Eastern Penitentiary In Philadel
phia, nt separate and solitary con
finement, for an indeterminate per-
t ,1 nm r, ... iU
more than three years."
Following the imposition of the
sentence, Rawlelgh left the court
room with Sheriff M. Lee Braman
as unconcerne'dly as he had entered
it.

gar, Browndale, who Is charged with
assault and battery upon one John
Kurochlc of the same place, on July
1, 191, the taking of testimony in
which action was commenced Mon
day afternoon at 2 o'clock.
These twelve men were called in

attorneys challenged these three Jur
ors: Martin Snavely, Damascus;
Charles Jacobs, Starrucca; AV. H.
Roso, Damascus.
After the jury had been Impanell
ed, all the rest of the traverse Jur
ors were excused for the remainder
of the afternoon. Attorney W. J.
Maxey, Forest City, who was asso
ciated with Herman Harmes, Haw
ley, as counsel for the defendant,
was admitted to practice in AVayne
county upon the motion of the lat
tor, and the case of the common
wealth was outlined to the jury by
District Attorney M. E. Simons who
said;
"This action Is a simple case of
assault and battery. The defendant
Is charged with striking the prosecu
tor over the head with a shovel. It
occurred in the little village called
Browndale, just across the line from
Wayne county, July 1, last. This
prosecutor was on his way home.
The defendant called him across the
street to his house, and said ,he
wanted him to pay him $5. He had
some dealings with the prosecutor.
The prosecutor replied he didn't owe
him anything. With that the de
fendant, who was Just inside the
gate, drew up a shovel and struck
the prosecutor over the head a blow
with a shovel and cut a great gash
In his "head and followed It up with
some threats. That's nbout all
there Is to this case. Some 'parties
pame and Bregar went back Into his
yard and the other man to a physl
clan where his scalp was treated and
the wound sewed up."
John Korochlc, Brownsdale, the
prosecutor, was the first witness. He
said that he couldn't talk English,
and so John Dutchman was sworn
as an Interpreter.
Korochlc's story of how tho at
fray happened was somewhat as fol
lows: 'He went to Forest City, July
1, He came nomo intoxicated and
singing. On his way home he saw
Bregar and called out "Hoy you owe
me $ 5," to whloh 'Bregar replied
"when "did you give them to mo?"
Ho stepped over to Bregar's fence
and Bregar hit him over the head
with a shovel and cut nls head open
hit him over the leg and his wife
threw dirty water at hlnf. Koro-
chlc's wife and daughter came and
led him home.
The Doctor came to his house
that evening, and found a gash 1
Inches long. Korochlc didn't at
tempt to strike Bregar.
When cross-examined by Attorney
Maxey, Kurochlc said he went to
Forest City that day to get three
window panes; that he was thirsty
aqd went into a saloon and drank
a couple of glasses of beer and
whiskey. He was singing on his
way home. He didn't know wheth
er he threw any stones at Bregar's
house or not. He lived in Brown-1
town six years, and never was In
trouble before. Bregar struck him
with a mine shovel on tho back of his
head. Tho scar Is still on his head,
and he showed it to tho jurymen.
He said he was 52 years old, and
didn't remember ever being hit be
fore. John Korochlc, Jr., a son of the
prosecutor, said he could talk a lit
tle English. " I see my father was
out on the street," he said, "all
bloody around the chin. I was go
ing over and took him home. I
didn t see Bregar strike father. I
saw father in the piddle of the
street. Bregar was inside of the
lot." The affray happened at six
o'clock, and John, Jr., went for the
doctor. There was no cross-examination.
Jennie Kurochlc, the daughter of
the prosecutor, wearing an lmmenso
white hat and a blue dress, took the
stand, and swore that she was home
on their porch on July 1, and saw
what happened at Bregar's house,
200 feet away. " I see Father com
ing home," she said, "and so he
(Bregar) called him over and asked
him for $5. So I seen him hit the
shovel on father. He took a chair
and threw It on his leg. He was in
side of the gate' and my father was
outside. Father didn't attempt to
strike Bregar. I phoned to the
doctor. My brother took him 'home."
On cross-examination she said:
"Well, I Just seen lilni when hit
with a shovel. Father was coming
home singing. He threw one stone
at Mr. Bregar's house. Yes, he was
drunk. Father throw a stone right
after he was hit with the shovel.
He wasn't walking straight."
Frank Debevc was the next wit
ness. 'He didn't talk English. He
saw the affair 300 yards away and
saw Frank hit Kurochlc.
AVhen cross-examined by Attorney
Maxey he said: " Kurochlc threw
one stone at the house. He wasn't
so drunk that he fell. I was up
stairs In the Kurochlc 'house when
this happened. I heard the quarrel
and went and opened the window."
The commonwealth rested.
Attorney Maxey presented the de
fendant's case to the jury In these
words:
" The whore trouble arose "over1
Kurochlc being drunk. He stopped
in front of the defendant's house;
This man came in front of his houSe
calling him names and asking him
to light. His wife came out and
sent her husband back. He threw
stones at the house. Bregar came
out, picked up a shovel and threw
it at him and hit him on the head.
We think we can show ho was on
his porch all the time, didn't have a
shovel and didn't strike him."
Frank Bregar was the first witness
called by the defense. He swore
that he was home July 1, and saw
Kurochlc coming along tho street
singing and hollering about 5:30.
He was minding the baby on the
porch. Kurochlc was calling "beg
gars as he came down the road.
Bregar asked him "did I owe him
anything." He shook the fence.
His wife ordered him away. He
wouldn't go, so she spilled water on
him. I came out with the baby.
She chased me back. He throwed
two stone's at the house. Then I
came out again and picked up a
stool and threw it at him. I never
struck him with a shovel. I was
sober. I was afraid of Kuroohlc.
When cross-examined, Bregar ad
hered to his original story. He said
further that he told Kurochlc he
owed him $5, but didn't ask him to
nay It. His wife was washlntr. He
threw the stool, he said, because he
was afraid Kurochlc would come In
the gate. God knows I didn't hit
him with a shovel.
Mrs, Frank Bregar, corroborated
her husband's story. Kurochlc was
going to go In the gate and 6he
spilled water on him. Then he
picked up a. stone and threw It. Her
husband threw a stool at him, but
never lilt him with a shovel. She
said to her husband "You go In the
house," and to Kurochlc "You go
home, before she threw the water,
When the Kuorchics came after him
they hollered "murderess" and
"killeress" at her and she splashed
water on them.
Mrs. John Mllhevc was called, but
& o'clock havipg come the case was
continued until Tuesday morning, i
After deliberating on the case for
half an hour, the Jury returned to
the Court with this verdict: "We
find the defendant not guilty, but to
pay one-third of the costs and Jennie
Korroschlck, prosecutrix, to pay two-
thirds of the costs."
" The Court Is pleased with the
verdict, remarked Judge Searle, ad
dressing the Jurymen. "The Court
thinks it's a very sensible solution of
the matter. Little matters like this
ought to be kept out of Court.'
