Several years aga Bogsnsii lived in Mil

or Hartford and see friend. She put
On her best clothes and departed AT the
ind Of . week Lena wrote to Boginski,
saying she would be home week later.
Al the end OF that time shs did not come.
Bogfnski got anxious and finally went on;
TO search fer his lost frau. He said that

could not get sight Of hsr. Finally he
traced her 10 . house near Everett, bat
when he GOT 10 the house she was net

He moved to Seattle. and according 10
his story met Mrs. Margaret Ta,e. who
was running the Nickel restaurant. Bo-
sinskt said that he paid Mrs Tate $3.50
Tor the restaurant on the expectation that
she would marry him. OF course he had
another wife. but as the other man had
license he supposed his claim did not
amount to much. Mrs. Tate, having got
rsd Ct the restaurant. left Bosinski 10 run
II and forgot al about marrying him.
This was only part of his trouble A
Mr.. Sunnsess claimed thai he owned the
restaurant outfit and got Constable Nell
son to move the property out under a re-
piesin suit. Boginski was not to be beaten
this way, SO he got a new outfit, among
which was stove. which he purchased
from Rabbi Genss in exchange for some
potatoes. The Cash Buyers Association,
which furnished the potatoes. sued Bogin-
SKI Ter 500 on account. got judgment and
levied on the potatoes as the property Of
the defendant. Then Rabbi Genss set up
claim 10 the potatoes. The case came
up before Justice Ingerso.l Thursday
afternoon. Boginski was on the stand.
and Attorney Allen asked him as 10 what
was said by Rabbi Genss. Mrs. Genss and
a clerk, TO whom Genss claimed he had
sold the potatoes.
II don't know what they said" replied
Bosipski. I'm no Jew"
Thank God for that" replied Attorney
Winsfock, and then the Justice rendered
verdict for the Judgment creditor
Boginski says that on Wednesday night
he had trouble with waiter and put him
out 1t appears that there came near
being scrap On the street. and an Of
deer rushed up. He clapped the hand
cuffs on Bog.nsld and went OF after the
waiter. who was . spr:nser. Boginski ex-
planned it this way: What do you think
OF this? / was there with those hand
cuffs for half an hour before the police
man came back and let me CO." The
waiter escaped.
In the ms anfime someone had stuffed
the chimney OF the RESTAURANT fun Of
Old agunny sacks. So that when he at
tempted 10 start q fire the smoke fisled
the restaurant and caused the proprietor
TO say big words.
