The pathetic aspect Of FIVE children

ings' heart IN City Court this morn
ing and he told Katie Kosdwski of %

plead guilty to a charge of selling in
toxicating liquor he would dispose of
the case Immediately and with all
leniency possible. Mrs. Kosowski as
sented and the court fined her 500
She said she could pay it.
The defendant was arrested in a
raid on her home last Friday. De-
tectives Kempski and Gamble. who
made the arrest. said they found a
still in operation in the house and
also large amount of liquor. The

LARGE SUMS ARE DUE CITY

Since he assumed charge Of the Of
flee. on July Is. Harry X. Hoch, sec
pnd assistant city solicitor, has caused
to be entered 73 suits against as
many property owners TO enforce from
them payment Of back taxes due this
CITY. This is the purpose for which
the office held by Mr.. Hoch was Great
ed, and there is a large number of
additional suits to be brought by him
In order that the city may secure all
the money due it from realty holders.
All suits involving sum up TO 5000
ARE being brought before a magis-
trate. Where the amount Of taxes
owed is more than 5000 the suit is
entered before the Superior Court.
Up to June 80 theN was owing Will
mington for 1921 taxes a grand total
of s230,000. Other taxes due for the
years prior TO 1921, some Of them run
ming all the way back to 1908. bring
the total sum in outstanding taxes TO
something more than $500. 900 This
therefore, shows the size of the task
the second assistant city Solicitor has.
and II is estimated that if he. is able
10 collect one-third of this amount
il will have justified the creation of
the office.
1t is the purpose of the authorities
TO see that all taxes due the city are
paid. hence the campaign against de-

Farnhurst Bridge Rail.

While driving home from Whining
ton late last night Harry McNally of

rowly escaped death when his team
was struck on the railroad bridge at
Farnhurst by an automobile, which
was speeding northward and which
drove off Immediately after the crash.
The market wagon, in which Mr.
McNally was riding, was completely
demolished and his horse badly hurt.
The man himself escaped serious in
jury by leaping from the vehicle when
he saw the auto bearing down on
him.
His jump carried him over the
railing of the bridge and only his
presence of mind in grasping one of
the posts stopped him from falling 10
the railroad tracks beneath.
The accident occurred so suddenly
and the machine disappeared at once,
SO that Mr.. McNally had little op-
portunity 10 see what had struck him.
However, he reported the details of the
accident and the type of machine to
State Detective John Moore, who this
morning made thorough search of
garages OF this city in an effort TO
locate the car which collided with
Mr.. McNally
