WOMEN WARRIORS IN COURT
Go to Jadce Vlnsonhaler to Deter
mine Who Dealt the
" Flrt Blow.
Judge Vlnsonhaler spent Trlday morning
n hearing evidence In the case of Mrs.
Julia Kelly against Ethel Samuels for as
sault and battery." Miss Samuels and her
mother and grandmother rented ' living
Dorai of th Kellys and the dispute arose
on July 8 as to who should clean up cer
tain dirt in the hallway. Miss Samuels
asited Mrs. Kelly's servant to do the
cleaning up, to which Mrs. Kelly objected.
Words led to blows being .struck, as al
leged, and the question for the court was,
"Who struck the first blowT"
Mrs. Kelly 'testified that Miss Samuels
hit her In th neck; that she had not called
Miss Samuels names; In fact, don't use bad
language. Sh said the .defendant had
used bud language toward her, but that she
hud not struck back even under that provo
cation. Mr. Kelly gave the same testimony
In effect.
Miss Samuels, a saleswoman In a depart
ment Store, aged 18, was a Study In mauve,
with a large picture hat and two dainty
patent leather Oxfords peeped out from the
hem of her skirt, with Just a hint of silk
hosiery above. She held, the eyes of all
observers as she told how the plaintiff had
called her a very unlovely name. She de
nied that she had Said "damn." as plaintiff
testified.
"I do not swear," said Miss Ethel, very
seriously, Just like Mrs. Kelly had said
she did not use nasty expressions. Miss
Samuels Insisted that Mrs. Kelly had a
baby In her arms, which she passed over
to her husband, and then stepped inside the
Samuels room and slapped her in the face.
And Miss Samuels has a most likable face,
too, more fit for kissing than slapping.
The evldense ot the parties could not be
reconciled by any rule of comparison, so
the court found defendant not guilty.
Mrs. Maud Samuels, mother of Ethel,
has a suit for $175 damages now pending In
th county court, gi owing out of the same
Incident, and later 'there will be a second
chapter to this little disagreement of lovely
women, young and mlddla-sged.

of conditions. He says now that he under
estimated Zlmman'a strength, and always
having had an aversion toward butting his
head against a stone wall, does not pro
pose to do It now. In addition, he has
found that the present Third ward council
man Is more popular with the people than
he Imagined. Therefore the flag of Mc
Mahon, which fluttered bravely for three
days, has been hauled down from his
political airship and nailed to the east
elevator at the city hall, where it rises
only with the undulations of the cage and
gets no higher than the fifth floor. Jerry
is quite willing to leave It there.
