GIRL HURLED CHAIRS,
GLASSES, ETC., At MAN

Using stools, glasses, spittoons
and spoons as missiles, Dolly Ham,
ilton, girl employed to run the
fruit and soda stand in connection
with the pool room at 249 Main,
created a whirlwind of excitement
at noon today and endangered the
life of her particular object of at
tack, John Figarelly, who only
saved himself from serious injury
by adeptiy catching everything that
came his way.
The Hamilton girl had been told
to quit her job on account of her
alleged Incorporate habits, and
when she was packing up this
morning she accused sundry per-
sons around the place of stealing
her clothes. Figarelly runs lunch
counter behind the Bari bar, next
door to the fruit stand, and he was
the oneo whom she chose to vent
her spleen. He pointed out to her
that her clothes were at the bot
tom of grip behind the counter,
but she grabbed water glass and
some other missiles and hurled
them at him. Then she used q
stool or two and spittoon. The
rest of her ammunition consisted
of spoons taken from the soda
fountain. She was finally subdued
and taken to the police station,
where charge of disorderly con-
duct was registered against her.

Complaints were made to the

So an auto trip was undertaken,
Belshaw was furnished with pick,

satisfied with his operations ON
