company it is time that such con
temptible practice be called to the at =

M unicipaI Court

Edgar Perley, a deaf mute, who is
employed at the Lockwood Mills in
the spinning room was before the
municipal court Wednesday after
noon at O'Clock charged with as
sault and battery on Lorenzo DroIet,
who is also employed in the same
place. 1t was rather difficult for
Recorder Plumstcad as the plaintiff
spoke no English and the respondent
could answer only in writing. From
what could be gathered it appear I'll
that Drolet is employed in carrying
waste from the room in a basket and
Perley is employed about the ma
chimes. Drolet said that when he
passed Perley, the latter thought he
hit him and came back at him with
broom giving him severe welt at
the side of the right eye, which was
badly swollen and blackened. Perley
expressed his sorrow that the affair
should have happened and it ap-
peared to be in the nature of a mis-
understanding on his part, superin-
duced by his misfortune. He was
fined $100 apd costs amounting to
$6.o6 or term of 80 days in Jail. He
paid cheerfulIy, promised not to dc
anything like it again and the two
boys went off together. seemingly
united by new bond of sympathy
