Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-10-10
BUSY MONDAY HORN.
The City Court Was Crowded to Suf-
 location.


 Burpee took the bench. The room was crowded to its utmost capacity and Sergeant Cahey had his hands full in compelling order. One-half the audi ence consisted almost of women, some of whom wore picture hats, some no hats at all, and others wore shawls in- stead. There was no more room in the dock, even small boy could not be squeezed into it. The presence Of Liq- uor Prosecuting Agent Pierce with a couple of wrfts in his hands added in- terest to the scene. At length every thing was quieted down and the judge was expected on the bench every mo-
 ment when a man in the public seats was taken with fit and had to be car r1ed out to the air. All was commo- ton then for while.
 At 9 o'clock Judge Burpee appeared on the bench and Jane Pinolde was charged with having been drunk yes terday.& She was arrested on Meadow street by Officer Kiersted. Mrs Pin olde said she came from New London
 to find her husband. She was warned 1 to leave town.
 Elmer Gordon of Waterville created a row at his home Saturday evening. He brought a party of drunken men
 to the house and because his step mother objected he proceeded to raise rim. He was fined $5 and costs. Max Morganstein, young fellow ar
 rested by Officer Kiersted for fighting
 on Liberty street, was let off.
 I Mary Cullum was charged with va-
 grancy. Officer Flaherty said she has
 been sleeping in the back yards of 1 Scovill street for the past week. She
 was given thirty days in jail.
 Mrs Margaret Welch was charged with intoxication. She was arrested I yesterday by Officer Doolin under un- l usual circumstances. The woman's
 husband got drunk yesterday. He has 1 been living in Cheshire for some time and apparently was coming to town ! with his wife. On the way Welch saw l a ganp of men in the woods and he l Immediately looked for fight. After his search had ended Welch was laid out. | His wife raised terrible uproar be lieving him to be dead. Charles Hen nessey, who lives in the neighborhood of Harper's Ferry, heard the outcry
 and bundled Welch and his wife into his team and drove them to the city. On the way he happened to see Super
 numerary Doolin summing himself on I his veranda and at Hennessey's re- quest the officer took the couple into l custody.
 For a wonder Welch made no resist ance when placed in cell, and his re- | markabIe silence surprised everybody. Captain Ramon, knowing from old ac- quaintance that Welch would baw1 | while he had a lung left, went to his
 cell and found the man in apparently great agony. A doctor was called and
 he found .Welch had his jaw bone and three or four ribs broken. He was re- moved to the hospital. Mrs Welch told the court that her husband had been struck with the butt end of 2 gun
 Cor somethdn.," Sentence in her case 1 was suspended and the case against her husband for intoxication, also, l was nolled It wdll be some time be-
 fore he can be released from the hos | pital. a. <
 A respectable looking young girl of I 15, though she seemed some years old
 CT, answered to the name of Annie Polivis. She was charged with breach of the peace Her sister Mary, about I Il years old, testified Annie called at
 the house yesterday and took pear
 from her. This caused trouble. Annie was put out of the house and then she threw a stone and broke a window
 and knocked bit off the side of the house. Annie's story was to the effect that she objected to drink being in her mothers house. She does not live at home because she could not, she said.
