ASSAULT AND
BATTERY HEARING

The services of an Interpreter
were required in the case of the
Commonwealth versus Frank Bre-
gar, Browndale, who is charged with
assault and battery upon one John
Kurochic of the same place, on July
l, 1911, the taking of testimony in
which action was commenced Mon
day afternoon at 2 o'clock.
[ These twelve men were called in
to the box to serve as a jury in the
case; w. Hertel, Jr. glassworker,
Palmyra; e. w. Howe, laborer,
Sterling; James Noble, farmer, Sa-
lem; George Ehrhardt, butcher,
Dreher; c. L. Dunning, merchant,
Honesdale; Depew Teeple, farmer,
Manchester; c. H. Wilmarth, farm
er, Clinton; T. j. Rourke, farmer,
Buckingham; Geo. A. Smith, black
smith, Lake; w. Buddenhagen,
teamster, Lake; o. F. Bowen, farm
er, Scott; c. S. Van Sickle, black
smith, So. Canaan. The defendants S
attorneys challenged these three jur-
ors: Martin Snavely, Damascus;
Charles Jacobs, Starrucca; w. H.
Rose, Damascus
After the jury had been impanell-
ed, all the rest of the traverse jur-
ors were excused for the remainder
of the afternoon. Attorney w. j..
Maxey, Forest City, who was asso-
ciated with Herman Harmes, Haw-
ley, as counsel for the defendant,
was admitted to practice in Wayne
county upon the motion of the lat
ter, and the case of the common
wealth was outlined to the jury by
District Attorney M. e. Simons who
said:
This action is a simple case of
assault and battery. The defendant
is charged with striking the prosecu-
tor over the head with a shovel 1t
occurred in the little village called
| Browndale, just across the line from
Wayne county, July /, last. This
prosecutor was on his way home.
The defendant called him across the
street to his house, and said he
wanted him to pay him 50. He had
some dealings with the prosecutor.
The prosecutor replied he didn't owe
| him anything. With that the de-
fendant, who was just inside the
gate, drew up shovel and struck
! the prosecutor over the head blow
with a shovel and cut a great cash
in his head and followed it up with
some threats. That's about all
there is to this case. Some parties
came and Bregar went back into his
yard and the other man to a physi-
clan where his scalp was treated and
the wound sewed up"
John Korochic, Brownsville, the
prosecutor, was the first witness. He
said that he couldn't talk English,
and so John Dutchman was sworn
as an Interpreter.
Korochic's story of how the af-
fray happened was somewhat as fol
lows: He went to Forest City, July
/. He came home intoxicated and
singing. On his way home he saw
Bregar and called out Hey you owe
me $5," to which Bregar replied
when did you give them to me?'
He stepped over to Bregar's fence
and Bregar hit him over the head
with a shovel and cut his head open
Then Bregar took little stool ant

WHY HESITATE?
An Offer That Involves No Money Risk
If You Accept 1t.


If You Accept 1t.
We are so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation, no
matter how chronic it may be, that we
offer to furnish it free of all cost if it
fails.
Constipation Is commonly caused by
weakness of the nerves and muscles
of the laSge intestine To expect a
cure you must therefore tone up and
strengthen those organs and restore
them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
on our guarantee. They are eaten like
candy, and are particularly good for
children. They seem to act directly on
the nerves and muscles of the bowels.
They apparently have neutral action
on the other organs. They do not
purge or cause other inconvenience. We
will refund your money If they do not
overcome chronic or habitual constipa-
ton and thus aid to relieve the myriads
of associate or dependent chronic all
ments. Try Rexall Orderlies at our risk,
