HEAVY FINES IMPOSED FOR VICIOUS ASSAULT Four in Police Court for Maltreating Police
 Agent"
(Special to the Herald)

Bristol Oct. 2S - William Mo Donald was fined s75 and costs and Lloyd Goodrich, James CSlciano and James Root were each fined $50 and costs on charges of assault and breach of the peace on Tues day, October 26. Root was arrested on complaint of William Fahey of Main street, who admitted having served as police informer on nu- merous occasions In the past. Root, according to his own testimony. had been approached on numerous occasions during the past few days by Fahey, who wanted to secure gallon or two Of wine. The result was that Root talked the matter over with his three friends and as a result it was decided to lay a trap for Fahey. This was done and at the instigation of Root. Fahey was taken across a vacant lot near the plant of the Bristol Brass cor poration where he was bounced upon by Roots friends. He assert ed in court this morning that he was bound, gagged and kicked be- fore he was tied to the railing leading to the rear door of the central fire station. There were no marks, however. on his features to substa1tiate his statements.
 The four boys were represented by Judge S. Russell Mink, who laid particular stress on their past good record. This had considerable to do with the sentence imposed by Judge Joseph M. Donovan, who stated that had they had a court them to jail.

 The governor said his public life had been the object of the severest scrutiny. "One particular man of vast fortune" he said, had spent a considerable amount Investigating him but did not find anything.
 Kept Marriage Vows
 Then referring 10 his marriage 27 years ago the governor said that in the presence of God he had promised to care for, honor and protect the woman of his choice and that if he were ushered before the great White Throne he would be prepared to establish that he had kept the promise. Then he shouted:
 Let the congressman lay his private life alongside of mine"
 The New York Times says that its reporter who heard the speech of MT. Mills in question did not detect any departure from his pre- pared remarks, which it says con- tained this reference to Smith: Versions of Quotations
 There Is no truth in him. and men who cannot tell the truth are not to be trusted in official or in private life."
 The Herald Tribune, which is supporting Mills, quotes the. re- marks as follows:
 Men who cannot tell the truth are not to be trusted in official or private life, and there is no truth in Alfred E. Smith,
 In the same speech Mills said, referring to the governor:
 "As for his presidential ambi- tions, they are simply preposter- ous." In another speech he referred to the governor as that foolish man, who began the campaign by laughing and is ending it in des- peration."
 Mills Denies Insult
 This morning Mills issued statement saying he had intended no reflection on the governors private life which so far as he knew was proper.
 My meaning is clear enough" it says. T had no intent to reflect on the governors private life. So far as I know it is spotless. More over, I am not concerned with his private life. I am not campaigning against Alfred E. Smith the man; l am campaigning against Alfred E. Smith the governor, who is seeking reelection.
 On further reflection I think the governor will decide he was nasty in his assumption. He must know that even in the heat of the campaign, l would not reflect on the integrity of him or any other man."

 It was the second victory for Shepherd. Last year he was tried on the charge of having dictated the will of his ward, and causing his death eight months later by inocu- lation with typhoid germs. A jury returned a verdict of mot guilty"
 Today's decision upholds the &C., ton of Judge Kickham Scanlan of the Cook county circuit court in admitting McClintock's will to pro- bate. and denies the attack on the wills validity brought by the young millionaire's ten cousins and his fiancee, Miss Isabelle Pope. The cousins, McClintock's only blood re- lations, were left nothing and Miss Pope was left only an annuity of SS,000. which was to be administer ed by Shepherd.
 Lawyers for the cousins and Miss Pope attacked the will not only as influenced by Shepherd, but showing evidences of his dictation.

NEW HAVEN LAWYER RURLS AN NEWELL Brother Attorney Not Hit But
 Sheriff Is Splashed
 HAVE FIGHT IN COURT
Louis Sperandeo, Who Posses the Inkwell and Also Swcars at David
 Mccoy, Escorted From Room by

New Haven. Oct. 2S P-Turmoil replaced the ordinary quietude of the common pleas court trial room to- day when two lawyers became parties to an altercation which just missed a bodily encounter. Assistant City Atty. Louis Sperandeo, hurled an inkwell at David J. Mccoy, the ink spattering walls, floor, furniture and records.
 Sheriff Is Spattered
 Those who witnessed the incident say that Sporandeo called Mccoy names, and also uttered an oath not the one subscribed to by wit nesses. and that other attorneys rushed into the fray to keep the men apart. Sperandeo was taken from the court room by Deputy Sheriff LenZi. The latter bore marks of the inkwell throwing as he was spattered with fluid from head to feet, his uniform and white shirt having large plots of black.
 The bottle smashed when it struck the beautiful marble trim of the judges bench. and the ink spattered on the bench and over the courts record lying upon it.
 Mccoy Squares of
 Judge Walter M. Pickett had just left the room when Sperandeo made a remark to Mccoy to which the latter took exception. Then fol- lowed argument and epithets and an oath and 1t was then that Mccoy squared off to take physical excep- tion to the epithet Sperandeo had applied to him when the latter hurled the well which was picked up from the desk of Clerk Henry Hig- gins. Just as the well flew Lenzi got into range as he was intent on stepping between the men.
 4 civil suit over a property trans action had been on trial and the two lawyers had been scrapping throughout it. The case was ad- journed to give court house en- ployes chance to remove ink stains.

that are encouraging and redolent of
optimism and hope. The evenings

On. such a day, the safe plan Is to do
only those things. that are necessary

that will be stirred by the astrological

If tomorrow is your birthday, you

same, minus some of the frills or at.
tachments that the friend bought.
How many times we hear women
say. "If had only known that was
all 1t cost, would have had one my
self" If these same women had
hooked into the prices. and had. not as
sumed that the article was costly,
they could have been enjoying some
labor-savirg article, some much de-
nishing, etc. Then, too, if one Is con.
sidering buying thing, one is alert
to notice opportunities. A chance
may be quick in coming and the
price be right for consideration.
Watch the Papers.
Two illustrations come to mind as
I write. One was a young, home
maker who wanted a three-burner oil
stove for "a little Summer shack. She
needed the stove, for the one she had
was in poor condition. However. it
seemed a luxury just to have the
shack, and SO she hesitated. But she
was on the alert to see if some chance
did not come, and, sure enough, 1t did.
A firm advertised just the sort of
stove she wanted and at a price
quite within her means. She lost no
time in going to the store and soon
had her hearts desire. She watched
The papers to advantage.
Finding What She Wanted.
It was something much less than
this that was needed by an older
housewife who had very little money
to spend. She wanted a carpet
sweeper It would save her tired body
the strenuous task Of sweeping the
carpet covered floors of her tidy little
home. She thought she could not afs
ford it because she was one who
once had had money and she
thought in terms Of prices high for
her And so for many months she
did without the sweeper.
But one day she said to herself:
This is very. foolish. How do 1
know that all sweepers cost as much
today as they did years ago. / may
find something that will do me all
right. And with this determination
she looked into prices. Soon she had
a sweeper at. much smaller cost than
her fondest hopes had imagined.
So do not fail to find out just
whether an article does cost more
than you can afford before settling
down with a resigned air to going
without it,. Perhaps you might have
It without taxing the purse strings In
the least.
