George Didsbury, who was arrested Saturday by Officer “Dan” Richardson on a charge of theft and whose case was continued from Monday morning, changed his plea to guilty this morn- ing and when the circumstances in connection with the case were ex- plained by Attorney P. F. McDonough the accused got off with a fine of §15 and costs. Smith Gets the Money. It was charged that about three weeks ago Didsbury induced young Willie Javis, of 26 Dewey street, to steal $66 from his father and turn it.over to him. Willie testified to this today and explained that as Didsbury had told him he carried revolvers he was afraid he might get shot if he didn’t comply with his request. As a sidelight on the case, however, Willie said that immediately after he turned the $66 over to Didsbury the latter gave it back to him. Then for some unknown reason the youngster turned the entire amount over to a third party named Smith, who has since disapeared. The said Didsbury did not keep the money or tell him to give it to the other man. Has “Alcobolic Dream.” Attorney McDonough explained that while talking to the boy his client had had an *‘alcoholic dream” and impressed the youngster with wild stories of the west. It ap- pealed to his vouthful imagination and he at once decided he wanted to g0 west himself{ He ran home and stole the money but Didsbury refused to keep it. The accused is about twen- ty-five years old and is well connected here in the city. His lawyer ex- plained that he had pleaded - guilty only because he could not get a bond to keep him from staying in jail un- ti1 his case could come before the higher court, but if a nominal fine were imposed his friends could raise it. Judge Kirkham imposed a fine of $15 and costs. What Did He Mean? Much ado about nothing, concern- ing a little trouble in Walter Dono- hue’s Washington street saloon Sat- urday night, resulted in the discharge of Louls Supranvicz, a fine of $6 and Every- | costs being imposed on Joseph Bark- erski, and fines of $5 without costs being meted outto John Labiencz and Anthony Skoloblewski. Officer Theo- dore Johnson arrested Barkerski on complaint of Mr. Donochue and the other arrests were made on the com- plaint of the accused. In this case Assitant Prosecutor George W. An- drew got sadly mixed up in his procedure and after he had informed the court that “the state rests” he be- gan to call on more witnesses. Attor- ney McDonough objected to this un- usual procedure and the two had a wordy wrangle, In reply to a peculiar staement by the assistant prosecutor, ' Lawyer McDonough asked: “What do you mean?” “I don't mean anything—er—a. that is, I don’t mean anything in ry ference to this' particular case, shouted Mr. Andrew, while the spec- tators snickered. 20, : i the streets, Lawyer McDonough represented Supranwicz and Labiencz. ‘Woof! Woof! Thinks He's a Bear, Woof! Woot! roared John Reggo from the prisoner's pen this morning when charged with drunkenness. John must have been under the impression that he was a bear for roars and grunts such as he emitted are seldom heard outside of a zoo. Officer Theo- dore Johnson arrested him at 2 o’'clock this morning wandering about a usual practice with S Ny M “I‘\ = Pl As Usual, NOW I \\lw, I Ig‘l"‘ ON il The Unusual Bock.

DIRECTORS APPROVE CHARITY FEDERATION adoption of Closing Schedue De- layed for Few Days. A slight setback was given at the meeting af the directors of the Cham- ber of Commerce last night to the movement for the adoption of the schedule of uniform hours approved last week by the Mercantile bureau far the stores of the city. A delay of only a few days will be caused, however, and it is believed that & o'clock closing will be adopted before April 1. The schedule was referred back to the committee in arder that it might look up some of the legal questions in connection with the fifty-eight hour law. This law provides for an exemption fram the fifty-eight hour schedule between December 17 and December 25, provided seven full holidays are given the clerks dur- ing the year. The schedule of the Chamber of Commerce provides for only six this year because of the plan to make Washington’s Birthday a holiday instead of Good Friday. Washington’s Birthday was not a hoil- iday this year and Goad Friday will not be observed, tHus depriving the clerks of a holiday. The question would not be difficult decide if the law regards the va- cations of the clerks as holidays or counts the half holidays given throughout the ¥ear by some of the stores. Until the committee has sat- isfled itself on these paints, its rec- ommendation will not be accepted by the directors. It may be necessary for the merchants to give thé clerks another holiday, but at any rate the delay is certainly not adverse to the employes' interests. ull to avor The directors were from 4:30 until 6:30 af- ternoon and went over much business. One of the matters af interest to the city government was the recommen- dation given the plan of having two or three full time assesso rather than four part time assessors. A clean-up week also was recommend- ed and the chamber will co-operate with the health department and other city officials in the plans adopted for this work. The Cleveland plan of federated charities for New Britain recommend- ed by the Civic Bureau was approved by the directors. President E. W. Christ will start the organization the federation shortly by the appoint- ment of a committee of members of the chamber to act with representa- tives of local charities and the sup- porters of charity, in & o'clock yesterday {HIGH of | Visit Our Large Millinery . sale Display of H Spring ] At Eastern Mil 183 Main § Greatest Variety of An ~ City.
