STRATFORD MAN =
PAYS FOR RIDE

Maxwell B1umquist of Stratford
was fined SIS and costs in the City
Court this morning when he was ar
raigned on two counts, drunk and
breach of the peace. Judge Bartlett
suspended execution of sentence on
the drunk charge and imposed the SIS
fine on the other charge. BlumquiSt
boarded a jitney bus yesterday after
noon to go to his home in Stratford
and became boisterous. When the
bus reached Stratford and Central
avenues he was creating such a dis
turbance that the driver ordered him
off the bus but Blumquist was stub
born and refused to make his exit
The jitneyman called a cop and
Blumquist was taken to the lookup.

WIFE'S DEFENCE
DIDN'T SAVE HIM

Quite a bit of southern atmos-
phere" was injected into the City
Court this morning when Mrs. Mary
Jones and her husband, Tom, of Wal
lace street, were arraigned on charges
of assault on Thomas Toler of So
Wallace street. The three parties,
all colored, told conflicting stories of
the alleged beating up that had been
given to To1er on Sunday afternoon
when, according to To1er, Jones ap-
preached him on Grand street and
in the course of the conversation that
ensued To1er asked Jones how far it
was to "Califonya-" Whether Jones
became peeved at the question or not
was not definitely settled in the court
this morning but an argument fol-
lowed during which To1er sustained
bad cut on the back Of the neck
from a knife or a razor. Mrs. Jones
took the stand and in long drawn
out monologue she told Judge Bart
lett how her husband whom she re-
ferred to as 1.-The Kid was innocent
and that she was the guilty party.
Mrs. Jones was stirred deeply by the
whole affair and took up a lot of
time bringing up the past about the
dear old southland and how she loves
the levees and other features of the
sunny south. Judge Bartlett cut the
woman short by imposing a fine Of
$50 on her husband and suspended
execution of sentence on herself.
