THROWN INTO RIVER.
Launch Owner Seeks Damages From
Ferry Co. for Action Of EmpIoye.

How a delightful boat ride and a
proposed supper at Bots Blanc were
spoiled by an officer OF the Detroit.
Belle Isle & Windsor Ferry Co was
told In Justice DeGaw's court. Mon
day. by Louis Sherman, owner of the
launch, IroQuois, when he appeared az
plaintiff In q suit against the ferry
company for $500 damages.
The party In the launch consisted Of
Mr.. Sherman, Alger Cook, Miss Ruby
Noble and Miss Gladys Mcdonald. It
was planned to take supper at the Bots
Blanc cafe, and the boat touched at
the island dock. No sooner had Mr..
Sherman climbed to the dock than
the guard made a rush at him and
pushed him headlong into the river.
Fortunately Sherman was good
swimmer, and the ducking did no more
damage than to soak his clothing and
greatly humiliate him In the presence
OF the ladies'. After the bath Sherman
climbed back to the dock and asked
why he had been treated In such =
manner. and he says the guard refused
any explanation and threatened to put
the handouts on him II he didn't leave
at once. Sherman was compelled to
return to Detroit In his wet clothing.
The case was heard by jury, which
was out when court adjourned at
noon.
