which CLANCY refused to pay. To set
tie the matter Metz placed the case
in Magistrate Workman's hands early
last week and Saturday night marked
the hearing.
During cross examination of the
plaintiff, Attorney William A. Gunter

the rescue before any assault took
place and the magistrate gave Metz
a severe reprimand who indicated
that repetition of the stunt" would
place the plaintiff behind the bars.
