THREATENED TO SHOOT DEAR FRIEND
Albert Ryskavitch Said He Was Drunk When He Wrote the
 Letter.

esI have crossed my heart that l will shoot you on sight" was in eff feet the substance of letter writ ten by Albert Ryskaviteh to My Dear Friend" The man was arraign- ed in the Putnam city court, Thurs day morning. He said that he was drunk when he wrote the letter. He was sentenced to pay fine of ten dollars and serve three months i'll jail. The jail sentence was suspend ed.
 Ryskavitch sold an accordion to John Kielbosa of Goodyear and re- ceived $10 for 1t. Asfsa tssslsds he was sorry he sold it and demanded it's return. Keilbosa pagd no attention to the demand but when the letter threatening his life was received he reported the matter to the police.
 After the trial Prosecuting Attor- ney F.. H. Johnson addressed Judge Geissler He said that Captain Ryan and the previous administration had worked tremendously together That the captain had handled the cases eff ficiently and well, using excellent judgment and with a willingness at all times to do anything he could to assist the ends of justice He said the captain was polite, always willing to listen to others troubles and when possible saved the court business by patching up little matters that could best be settled out of court. He hoped that the harmony would con tinue through the present admins tration, between the court officials and the police department.
