en- Police in Raid.
GET TRAVANTY AGAIN

Peter Juskiewicz, 352 Grand avenue,
(the place formerly run by Tom Ia

American citizen.
"If he is" said Sergeant of Po-
lice Emil Meissner this morning, Il
think we can spare his kind in this
country"
threatened his life when he entered
the saloon, which is just next to the
bend on Sheridan road, last Saturday
night.
Has Enjoyable Weekend.
"I'm an American citizen and you
have no right to enter this place,
Juskiewicz said. He is also alleged to
have added a little later to Meissner,
eff you come back into this place, I'll
shoot you in your tracks. And I'll
shoot any other policeman that comes
in here!"
Just for that, and also because he
was found in possession of moon
shine on the premises, Juskiewicz spent
the entire weekend in the city lock
up and there were no bonds big
enough to get his release.

The saloon at 352 Grand avenue
was crowded when the police entered
to make their raid. A couple went
ahead in plain clothes ordered "shots"
and were duly served. Mrs. Juskie-
wicz and Boleslaw Sielewicz, the
bartender, made a rush at the two
men when he saw that they were
going to keep it as evidence. Detec-
tive Chase who was on the heels of the
first two tried to seize the glass and
was himself in turn seized in a low
ing embrace by Mrs. Juskiewicz, who
held on for ten minutes.
In the midst of the fight, Sergeant
Juskiewicz at this point, "and you
fellas amt got no right to come in
here!"
In the midst fthe fight, Sergeant
Meissner stepped outside to call the
wagon, and Juskiewicz according to
the sergeant pursued him with his
threet to "shoot him" All three, JUS
kiewicz, Mrs. Juskiewicz and the bar
tender, were arrested. The bartender
kept company in Jail with his boss.
