Ins the town court Saturday after noon Judge Harry E. Back sentenced Edward Crpeke to serve 1se days in Jail and pay costs amounting to S14.25, after the prisoner had pleaded guilty to attacking Albert Jackson with 6 jackknife and almost succeeding in cutting him severely.
 MT. Jackson is an overseer in the mill of the Danielson Cotton company, and Crpeke has been an empioye there. Crpeke claimed more money was due hi,n for work than he had received, and when this was denied by the over seer, Crpeke attacked him, slashing vicious1y but without success.
 In passing sentence Judge Back told Crpeke through an interpreter that the use of knives in such a manner was not to be countenanced for 2 min ute in this town and that he would give him a longer jail sentence if he could.
 Copekes wife made an emotional plea for the release of her husband, after sentence had been passed, that was somewhat startling to prosaic New Dnglanders attempting to kiss the hands of the court OfhcialS-wfthout making a bowling success, though she did do some bowling in connection with the incident.
