Enters Hospital With
 Ear in Hand; Leaves
 With Ear on His Head

Employing the frontier methods used to mark a gambler, Charles Burger, of 15 Milne street, following a disagreement in a card game, with William Burns, of Calhoun avenue, last Sunday, pulledsa a pen knife from his pocket and gripped the latter's right ear securely in his fingers.
 ~ Before Burns could realize what his opponents intentions were, Burger raised the knife in the air and is al- legged to have carved the formers ear from his head. Burns holding the severed member in, his hand walked into the emergency hospital about 8 O clock in the morning and calmly asked pr. Joseph Deery to sew it back on. f@
 The ear was cold but the physi- clan determined to emulate if possible the feats of war surgery performed abroad, proceeded to restore Burns ear. It was a delicate operation and required more than an hour of care full labor, but Burns left the hospital with his ear on his head. > 7 It was dressed today by the phys- clan and is in fair shape although the doctor questions If he will not have to take 1t off again, owing to the con- dition of the member when the opera tion was performed. Burger was ar- rested and held on charges of assault for hearing Jan. 3.

 F Miss Hewitt. telegraphed to the girls parents and an uncle of Miss. Page, a,
 well-to-do Georgian planter, met them at Washington, D. C., last Saturday An affecting scene between the girl and her uncle was enacted in Wash ington. ..
 The homesick miss threw herself; into the arms of her relative and both
 wept freely Miss Hewitt then ar ranged for trip of several hours in an automobile around Washington on a sightseeing tour, but the points of inte1est announced by the driver were ignored by the pair, who kept chat ting and asking each other questions.
 Miss Hewitt stated that the case has aroused the entire state of Georgia and is even discussed in Washington. Threats of lynching and of shooting Jackson, when he is brought back for trial in January are being freely made. The authorities: However, are taking every prevention to safeguard their prisoner. At present he is in jail at Hartford, but the Federal authori- ties in this section will turn, him over to the officials of Georgia for trial in ' January. :: :. It has been learned that contrary to previous reports Jackson actually kid mapped the girl. He went to her home in a carriage and asked her to take a ride. Her. family knew him and thought nothing of the request only advising the pair to return in an hour.

TWO CENTURIES OLD LAW HAILED
 FORTH FOR USE
Ancient Ruling May Cause Bridgeporter's Day ill
 Jail to Increase.

Harry Hickey, the Lake Torpedo Boat Co.,, employe who six months ago shose jail sentence to payment of s3 } week for the support of a child in sne custody of Miss Julia Robinson spent a sad Christmas in jail, as the result of one of the old blue laws of Connecticut, placed upon the statuJe books in the year 1702.
 Although he expected. to be free yes terday and to- eat his Christmas din- her at home, lawyers assert today that although his term has been served Hickey is likely to spend New Years hs a guest of Sheriff Pease in the county institution on North avenue.
 The. trouble arose when Judge Scott In the common pleas court in the de- cision of a civil suit declared that weekly payments must be made to Miss Robinson for the support of Ffckeys child or he should serve six months in jail. Hickey chose the jail alternative.
 Yesterday when his term expired it developed that the old law had been applied which made it necessary for him to take the poor debtors oath. At least four days notice of intention must be given with no power of bail applying to the case. A notice of in- tention to appeal on the notice has been made to the presiding justice which will mean at least two weeks further delay. '.
 Some lawyers assert in discussing the nase Xhat under the old 'body writ law Eckey may be made to pay the weekly stipend even though his term of imprisonment has been served.

Warrant Issued For
 Belligerent Witness


 When summo oned to court to testify in an assault case Mrs. Nathan Riff kin, of Gil Ha1lett street, is alleged to have. told Patrolman Wilfred Walker eff you get me in court you'll have to take me bodily, and you'll also have to give me a ride" When the policeman told the story to Judge Frederic Bartlett, this morning, following the courts ques- ton as why she did not appear as a witness the judge decided it would be a good idea to grant her request. She will be given a ride in the patrol wagon this afternoon and arrested on a warrant charging her with con- tempt of court.
 The case in which Mrs. Rifkin fig ured, related to an assault with a knife, inflicted by William Obell, who lives in the Hallett hotel, on Theo Heowk, of S27 Ogden street, and his brother, Michael Heowlx, of 348 Will jam street, Monday afternoon.
 The argument which led to the stabbing started in the store of the Rifkin woman and ended in the street outside. Judge Bartlett fined Obell $100.
