has troubles Of his own and Fridays

account of his experiences. Not long
ago the Review told of his purchasing
a grocery store on the West Side in
st. Paul and of his leaving to take
possession. His subsequent actions
have been spectacular and the Globe
reporters story Of the escapade which
took him into the st. Paul police
courts is as follows. .
George Siebenbrunner, who some
months ago came to St. Paul from New
Ulm and purchased a small grocery
store at SO South Robert street, is in
more trouble than he ever dreamed Of
when he left the little town of New
Ulm to seek fortune in the city.
Wednesday afternoon he agreed to
sell the stock of groceries to Jennie
Resented, and accepted S25 as a par
tial payment. With the S25 in his
possession Siebenbrunner visited a
number of West side saloons and dis
posed of it as rapidly as possible. To
wards evening he returned to the gro
Gerry store and ordered the Rosenfeld
woman and her husband, A. Rosenfeld,
to vacate. When they refused to do so
Siebenbrunner assaulted Mrs. Rosen-
field and beat her in such a manner
that she had to be placed in. the care OF
a physician. He next grabbed valua-
BILE pug dog belonging to the Woman's
husband and threw it about the store.
The dog, which recently cost Rosenfeld
$50 in New York, made its escape from
the store and has not since been seen.
Siebenbrunner was arrested, charged
with committing an assault upon Mrs.
Rosenfeld, and in police court yeSter-
day was sentenced to pay a fine OF $50
or spend thirty days in the workhouse.
Before he was taken to the Como in
stitution, however, Attorney John Selb,
whom he retained, visited the grocery
store and collected the balance due on
the stock, 1925. Il
Just as he had finished counting the
money, Constable Fountain and Sic
benbrunner's divorced wife, Mary De
Bar, entered the store for the purpose
of garnishing the money, which Mrs.
De Bar said he owed her on alimony.
The papers had been made out to
serve on Mrs. Rosenfeld, however,
and Attorney Selb, having possession
of the money, refused to except service
when the constable attempted to Sc
cure the cash in his possession.
After collecting his own fee, the at
torney hurried to the municipal court
to pay Siebenbrunner's fine and save
him from the workhouse and had just
handed over the money when he was
served with another garnis hment. The
constable and Mrs. De Bar had lost
time, and while Attorney Selb had been
| looking after the payment Of hisclient's
fine they had sworn out new garnish-
ment papers: -
Mrs. De Bar later released her gar
nishment, thinking the money would
be paid over to her, but no sooner had
she done SO than Attorney Selb was
served with a third garnishment, this
time in favor Of Mrs. Resented, who
had commenced an action in tort for
300 damages for the injuries she had
sustained at Siebenbrunner's hands.
This action is now pending in Justice
