Dead In Home.
The next Intoxicated automobile
| driver to appear before Judge Jo-
seph NJ. Donovan in the city court
will receive a substantial Jail sem
tence instead of fine, according to
q statement made this morning by
the Judge while trying the case of
lgnatz Sebestanovich of As Irving
street. The court felt that there
were altogether TOO many such
cases brought in and the only
remedy which would tend to affect
a cure would be a Jail sentence
Prosecuting Attorney James T.
Mather has for some time past ad-
Vocated such policy.
Sebestanovich, on the night of
September 18th, while operating his
car on Park street collided with a
car owned by James j. McGrath of
Meriden at the corner of Park and
Divinity streets near the Waterbury
bridge. Both cars were badly
damaged and Sebestanovich settled
for the amount involved in repairing
Mr.. MCGrath's car. Judge Donovan,
after delivering his ultimatum, i'm
posed a fine of 500 and cost, total
ing S11.60, which were paid.
