Tense. Fritsch was fined 8 and
costs. and the defense gave notice Of

Out Of the hearing Of this case

tween Magistrate Schroeder and City
Attorney Haas. Fritsch. it will be
remembered. was ordered from the
house Of Matthey. his stepfather,

bodily injury, Fritseh was arrested

years of age. and alleges that one of
the favorite past-times of her lord
and master is to beat her with his
wooden leg. She also affirms that
while their home is in his name, she
paid for it. and on Sept. % last, Mrs.
Matthey obtained from Judge Smith
an injunction restraining her hus-
band from selling or disposing of the
property or interfering with her
rights there. Under this injunction.
Mrs. Matthey invited her son to the
house to care for. and support her.

announced his withdrawal from any
further part in the proceedings. ant
