“WIFE SAYS HUSBAND GOT WORST OF "SPAT",” Toronto Star. April 30, 1921. Page 2. ---- Mrs. Israel Wanted Colonel Just to Chastise Her Mate. ---- With his head so elaborately bandaged as to indicate that it had been. cloven and that without the bandage it would be in grave danger of suddenly separating and falling to the ground in two pieces John Israel. a gentleman of the Ethiopian race, labored into the dock this morning to answer to the charge of assaulting Louisa Israel, his faithful spouse. 

Taking the stand, Mrs. Israel meekly intimated that there had been a family quarrel. And now, now that she had got him here more or less at her mercy, now that she could tell the court a pitiful story and probably have her John sent far away for many, many weeks, all of which not doubt she had Intended to do, she did. nothing of the kind. She had to wipe away a tear, indeed. 

"Sir," she cried, "I don't want him sent to Jail, sir. If you could chastise him, sir, that's what I would. like you to do. Just chastise him, sir." Now, what could the colonel do after that but attempt to "chastise" John? 

Then the soft-hearted Louisa again pleaded for mercy. "Sir," she whined, "I think he has had enough. We had a fight, and I had a big stick in my hand and struck him." 

"Did he get the worst of it?” enquired the bench. 

"I should say he sure did," replied. Mrs. Israel. And her eyes glistened with that twinkle which perhaps prompted Kipling to remark on the deadliness of the female of that species. 

Following a little more "chastisement" from the bench, Mr. and Mrs. Israel walked out arm-in-arm, heading for home and happiness, even as they had done when they left another totally different scene years ago where they were made one.

Still in the Dark. Eighteen months in Burwash reformatory had not convinced Joseph Bennett of the fact that society requires its members to respect the rights of private property.

Hardly a month since he was discharged from the institution, and here he was up for theft of a pair of boots. from a down-town store. At home there were awaiting Bennett a wife and four little children, the clerk announced.

Bennett added his family had got along badly - had hardly been able to make ends meet during his recent absence. He did not know what they would do if the court imposed another sentence of imprisonment.

Col. Denison was informed that the young man was addicted to the use of drugs, and opined that perhaps another two months - this time at the jail farm -would make a desirable improvement in Bennett's physique and outlook on life generally.

Hundreds of citizens already know of many varieties of jewels that are "dirt cheap" in comparison with the ultimate cost of booze. And during the next three months at the jail farm, Joseph Umansko will undoubtedly have opportunity to make a pretty accurate estimate of just what it cost him to have a little private stock in his home that was connected with a store.

About a month ago, young Nelson Pickering received a sound spanking from the vigorous hand of his uncle. And Nelson, though only sixteen, purposed in his mind to "get even." 

This was the explanation given by both the boy and his mother this morning, when Uncle charged Nelson with stealing his watch.

Nelson was very, very sorry. He had vented his spite, he told the court, and now he regretted it.

Col. Denison vented a few caustic remarks about boys who can't take a spanking when they deserve it. He had no doubt at all that Nelson had deserved that spanking.

Crestfallen, the blushing nephew left the dock, with a warning in his ears as to what he should expect if he got into trouble again and came back.

“GIVEN TWELVE YEARS ON ATTEMPTED MURDER,” Toronto Star. May 21, 1921. Page 3. --- Nick Struch Sentenced by Mr. Justice Kelly-Langlesey Gets 18 Months. ---- Justice was meted out with dazzling rapidity in the assize court yesterday afternoon, both Mr. Justice Kelly and Mr. Justice Logie sitting on the bench one after the other and between them dealing with four cases. Before sentencing Roy Hotrum to be executed on August 3, for the murder of Druggist Sabine, Mr. Justice Kelly imposed a twelve year penitentiary sentence on Nick Struch, who had been found guilty by an assize jury of attempted murder. Struch (Stroich), is a Galician, or Austrian-Pole, who was involved in the drinking brawl which occurred on the night of January 9, in the shack to the rear of 141½ Centre avenue. On this occasion, Steve Popclink was slain. Mary Popolink was shot through the thigh and Vasil Ostopovich had his skull furrowed by a bullet. Struch's part in the affray was to grab Mary Popolink by the hair and call out to the unknown slayer, "Kill her or she'll run out and call the police and we won't be able to get away."

William Langlesey convicted by a jury in the assizes of stealing a quantity of boots from the Davies Footwear Company was also sentenced by Mr. Justice Kelly to ten months' imprisonment. W. D. Shorey made a strong plea for leniency.
