 Hayes Fined $2O and Costs.

He pleaded not guilty and was defended by Attorney William F. Mangan. Evi- dence introduced was sufficient to convince Judge Meskill that Hayes was guilty, but it also showed that there is not the best feeling existing between Hayes and his neighbors, es pecially the family of D. J. McMahon whom Hayes admitted batting by shouting "Denny the rat
 Mrs. Dennis McMahon said that on the evening of August ' Hayes cre- ated a disturbance by coming out into
 
 her and using other violent language. Lizzie Lucas, a girl, testified that the following morning Hayes came down the street drunk and chased her little cousin, George Janascheck, into the cellar where he choked him. Later the girl said all she knew of the as- sau1t was what the boy told her, but the boy himself told the court the same story. The girl also testified that her mother, Mrs. Annie Lukas, went to the boys assistance with a club, whereupon Hayes kicked her in the leg. Mrs. Hayes finally took the club and chased her husband into the house with it, she said. MT. McMa- hon was called to the stand and told of witnessing the assault on Mrs. Lu- kas, whereupon he called the police.
 "You're not friendly with Hayes, are you?" queried Lawyer Mangan.
 Sure, I'm friendly. I never speak to him. responded the witness.
 Mrs. Hayes denied that her hus- band caused the trouble charged against him and Hayes himself en- tered a general denial All he did, he said, was to go out into the yard and shout "Denny the rat," across at the McMahon family.
