turbing the organ that contained so
much Brunswick stew and good cheer

not see where the fun came in and
cast around for some means of es-
cape.
1t was shown III the evidence that
McGregor had been told to let the
old man alone and had been taken
away by an officer, but came back
for more fun.
According to Herr Huffman. he be-
came so exasperated at the "ungedul-
dig" actions OF the young man that
he spit across his nose" which ac-
ton the young man construed as an
insult, claiming that other parts OF
his face besides his nose helped to
receive Herr Huffman'S peace offer
ing.
The Herr wears a hitting souvenir
of the occasion in the form of
bruised eye and cut face, where he
took blow from McGregor. The
arrest was made by Chief Werner, of
the city police forco, who happened
to be there at the time of the trou
