Over in $3.50

The closing attraction of Christmas
week in municipal court circles was
furnished Saturday afternoon by two
members of the Polish colony of the
city, they being Miss Josephine Uruska
and Jacob KafeL and Jacob was the
prisoner before the bar. The reason
for Jacobs appearance in court was.
according to the facts which were
brought out at the hearing, that he had
for the past, six months or so been
keeping company" with Josephene.
and that on Saturday morning he had
sent word to her that he was going
away, in consequence OF which she,
who claims that there are divers rea-
sons why he should not leave her in
the lurch at this particular time,
promptly swore out warrant for his
arrest.
1t was with some difficulty that that
part of the details of the case was
completed. When the officer went to
make the arrest at the house on Mt.
Vernon avenue where Jacob and Jo-
sephene had been living, he was at
first refused an entrance, and on finally
getting inside the house could not To-
cate Jacob anywhere, and it was only
through information by a friend of
the young girl that the whereabouts
of the missing Jacob were ascertained
and he was found secreted in a bed.
also very much intoxicated, so that 1t
was o'clock in the afternoon before
he was in condition to be brought in
to court
When arraigned Jacob was represent
ed by M. e. Sawtelle and pleaded not
guilty. 1t came out that the two, ia
cob and Josephine, had lived at the
same house and that their relations
had been very intimate. Josephine
claimed that he had been getting
nearly all of her money on Il promise
to marry her, and that he owes her
between $50 and $50. At the close OF
the hearing Jacob was ordered to
furnish bond in the sum of $3.50 for
appearance at the January term of the
Superior court and was detained over
Sunday in order that he might have
an opportunity to secure the bond

him, saying You just wait till after

The threat comes with more force as
the man is known to have In his pos
session, although not carrying 1t on
his person, a big revolver. Recent
events in Aroostook county, where an
enforcement deputy has disappeared
and Is believed to have been murdered
by men whose liquor he had seized,
also make the threat and others like
it seem even more serious.
But forewarned is forearmed, and
