THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL

E. MENSENBERGER (Continued from page One) to what happened on the night of the tight and Mabie told him he reached for a black jack wfien Mensenberger would not get out of his car. When questioned as to what be- ' came of the black jacks, Mabie stated that Mensenberger took one away ' from him and Emerson took the other. Brubaker then asked what bevutne of the blackjacks and Mabie said he didn’t know but that the Syrcuse Journal stated that Mei’senoe get s colored maid had put them under her pillow that night and slept on them. The crowd roared at this point. Asked how long the fracas lasted, Mabie said 15 or 20 minutes. During Brubker’s cross-exami-’ion of Mabie, it was evident that Frances Bowser’s Services were at the disposal of his bCbther. .the prosecutor, for when Brubaket would make some especially poanted" attack on Mabie’s character, Frances Boweer would rush from the trmide to the alley to whisper advice through the window to the prosecutor. Irosecutor Bowser didn’t seem to care for this and seemed to pay little attention to him. ; . David Rippey was then called to testify and he said that he saw Mabie, the night of the fracas, about 11 ix’clock, and that Mabie had on a torn shir: and that his arm. and -hest we;e red. He said tht he saw Mabie's arm about a week later and it w as-a green color as if it had been bruised. Mabie’s torn shirt was then exhibited as evidence. Frank Lucus, chief of police in Warsaw, was then called and test tied that he saw Mabie’s arm the morning after the fight and that it was bruised. Mabie was called to the witness chair again and the two blackjacks were exhibited. Mabie said that one was his property but the other he was not quite sure .of. Brubaker then asked what Mabie was doing with blackjacks. Mabie stated that he needed them for his <>wn protection and he had carried them around with him Brubaker told him he carried them to hit people over the head with afer he hd handcuffed them, which again brought forth a protest from the state nd Frank Leas. The nextwitness called was A. W. Eriierson. who was put on the chair by the defense. Emerson told that on the night in question he made a delivery of groceries to he Mensenberger home, passing by Brunjes’ case where he saw Mabie’s car parked and Mensenberger talking with Mabie. After delivering the groceries, Emerson testified that he heard the row, rushed, up the lane and saw Mensenberger pull Ma-1 bie out of the car in a struggle for a black jack, Mensenberger gave ,him' the black jack, Emerson said, and I then Mabie reached for another black { jack which was taken away from him 2>y .Mensenberger. Mensenberger did not hit Mabie,; Emerson said, until Bob McCullough’ had rushed up from his machine and yelled: "Look Out,” when he saw Mabie reach for his back pocket. Upon cross examination Emerson' admitted that he was friendly with Mensenberger, had had business con- ' ueetions with him in the p;:si and that Mensenberger had received money from the operation of slot ma-' ■chines in Emerson’s.place of business. The question as to what percentage of the money placed in slot machines went to Mensenberger was over ruled l by the court. • R. S. McCullough, the mysterious { witness whom other witnesses deni-1 ed knowing was next called. He stat- 1 ed that he was subject to asthma, had' been in Texas for a couple of years a.nd was yard master on leave of absence from the Bl & 0. railroad in; Youngstown, .0. , He told how he drove up to Brunjes place of business with Clyde Ballou with whom he.was going to a dance. Ballou went into the Brunjes house; while he remained outside. He testi- j tied how he saw Mabie try to hit I Mensenberger with something, while t N!e:isei’.i>e; oer v ~s outside the car. Upon cross examination he said that..he saw only Mabie and .Mensenberger during the fight. Other Witnesses Called. ‘ The defense next called their character witr.esses to testify to the truth and veracity ,of B. 0. Mabie. Sol Miller, Ross Osborn and Harry L. Porter were called. They testified that according to general public opinion Mabie’s character was bad. Upon cross examination the ”pros-

ecutor wanted to know if these character witnesses w'ere interested in seeing that gambling .went on about the , lake. | Sol Milter admitted that he might . at some time have said that gambling ought to be allowed. Porter said that he was not interested and Os- . born told the prosecutor that if gambling was allowed in other parts of the county that Wawasee Lake . ought not to be “picked on”. > Prosecutor Bowser then wanted to . know who had told Osborn that , gambling was allowed in Warsaw. Osborn said that lots of people had. Asked by the prosecutor if he would have any kick coming if the rest of the county were cleaned up "of gam’"bling devices, and Wawasee then cleaned up, Osborn said that he would not have any kick coming. Bowser then told him that he had no kick coming. , Bowser also asked Osborn if he had t ever employed Mabie and Osborn ad- . mitted that he had. Bowser then said , that if Mabie’s truth and veracity . were good enough when Osborn . wanted a theft investigation why . were they not good enough now? Carl Ruch, next witness, was cal 1 - ed to testify what he had heard. He i said he had heard Mabie, say, in the Waw asee restaurant in Syrcuse, that he didn’t expect to win the case beeuse there were too many against him. He also said that Mabie said he ; wanted to get Fowler on the stand i and prosecute him. Fowler bn Stand. The defense then called James Fowler of Milford to testify. He is the boy who made affidavits again;: Mensenberger’s slot machines before they were seized by officers. Fowler said' that he had made out the affidavits which caused these raids, tht Mabie had described to him the lay out of the machines and their location, that Mabie had repiesented himself as a state detective and that Mabie had promised hit ■ 85 for each conviction,” and that no one in Warsaw would pay any attention to him (Mabie).. Fowler admitted that he saw machines . in operation but that thAt was last yer. Fowler also said that after the raid Fowler’s father had run Mabie out of their potato patch when Mabie came to their place to see'him. Upon cross examination Fowler admitted that he had told the prosecutor that no one had sent him to see the prosecutor , With the complaint about slot machines. • Brubaker then asked Fowler if Mabie had not told him to tell the prosecutor that no one had sent him. To I his question Fowler said yes. Final Arguments. | Bowser then summed up his case, | saying that the defense witnesses i had exaggerated and that Emerson’s and McCullough’s stories did niff (coincide. He also said that all the de- . sense witnesses were interested in' | having slot machines on Wawasee. j In his summary Brubaker stated that Mabie’s story conflicted with that of Mrs. Brunjes, a witness for the estate, and that Mabie’s reputation foi veracity and truth was bad. He said that Mensenberger hit Mabie in self .defense for both Emerson and McCullough had testified to this effect. In his final argument Bowser told how the defense had tried to prove Mabie had gotten Fowler, to make the , affidavits. Bowser wanted to know if it made any difference if Mabie did get Fowler to make out the affi davits? For if the defense thought I that Mabie did do this, that provided ( a motive for the assault, one of re- . taliation. : I After the justice found Mensenberger guilty and the case vias appealed ,to circuit court, Mensenger’s bond | for appearance was set at SIOO. Mr. j Hodges signing the bond. — ———o ENTERTAINS WITH BRIIX7E Mrs. George Xanders entertained J a number of friends from Syracuse •and Lake Wawasee with a luncheon (and afternoon’s bridge party at her ’home last Friday. Following the luncheon, seven tables of bridge were in play, and prizes, were won by Mrs. Joe Rapp, Mrs. M. M. Smith and Mrs. Hallie Holloway.

P. Dolan, who had been teaching at the Vawter Park school, came to the Syracuse school as instructor. He was the one who was influential in getting the ground from the building to Main street made into a lawn where flowers £rew. In addition io attending classes there through the upper grades, students in the early ’Bo’s availed themselves of the opportunity to study normal school work, to train themselves as teachers. - . Classes and “larnin” were the center of interest in the old building, but many are the spelling bees, debates and other such contests with the country'schools, arid meetings of literary societies, which have been held within its walls. When the present grade school building was constructed in 1908, some of the classes were held in the new building, and as the years advanced the old one was used less and less. For a time domestic science and manual training classes met there. Then the partitions between the upstairs rooms were removed and this space used for basketball playing. • Back in the early youth of this building classes commenced in November after corn husking was over, and continued in session until June. The 1874 building was a township school for a few years, was later taken over by the town, and in 1924 became a township school again. In the fall of 1928 the new High school was first used. Since that time the old building has been standing vacant, unless used as a hiding place by “chalk the rabbit” parties. The building was recently advertised for sale, appraised at $lO. It was sold for two-thirds of its appraised value, 56.67 to Walter F. Call who moved from Chicago to Syracuse last spring. He at present lives above the Shell Gas station. Mr. Call is. to tear down the building and clear the lot, selling the material, or perhaps he will use it for building. The ground will then serve as a playground for pupils in the grade school building. The work of the destruction of this old landmark has caused one accident, a minor one, when Mr. Call stepped on a nail, Monday, injuring his foot. ' ' I
