Making threats Of personal violence to-
ward his wife was the charge against Thos.
P. Diggins, an elderly man. who lives at
1876 Vermont avenue, when he appeared
before Judge Scott today. The old man
admitted he had not done exactly right,
but complained that his wife would not
meet him half way.
When my husband is sober" said Mrs
Dfggins, hes all right. but when he's I'M
der the influence of liquor he's very dis
agreeable. If he will promise to do what
is right 1 don't want anything done to
him.
I've been calculating on doing better"
said Patrick and"
Calculating won't do the court inter-

liquor alone and pay proper attention to
your famiy?'
We'll, then, your honor" said the de-
PENDANT. I'm endeavor to do the best l
can to keep sober
Even this promise did not satisfy the
judge. and Diggins then said:
TN keep sober and do what's right"
His personal bonds were taken and he
was released. Judge Scott told him the
bond was for six months and advised him
that 1T would be well for him to keep his
promise for life.
