SUCIE MAY HAVE CHICKEN THIEF Westwood Park Officer Asks for War- rant for Suspected Hennery Raider —Drunk Wouldn't Go Home for Officer. Delegates from about twenty subor- dinate granges, representing Hartford, New Haven and Middlesex counties, gathered here today to attend a meet- ing of Central Pomona grange held in the hall of the local organization on Pierce street. It was a regular session of the order and grangers from many places in this lacality were in attendance. The delegates were here as the guests of local grangers and during the day they were entertained in hospitable fashion. The morning session was given up tc the exemplifying of the fifth de- gree. The work was admirably done by the degree team and the mem- bers received many compliments on the showing made. At noon tho visitors were enter- tained at dinner, gerved by the local grange The Plainville members took a lively interest in ¥he session and the \visiting delegates praised them freely for the thoroughness shown in making the arrangements. In the afternoon subjects dealing chiefly with farm life were discussed. Some interesting topics were consid- ered. “Are the Farmers Benefitted by the Grange? If So, How?" was one of the questions on which several of the delegates spoke. “The Possibili- ties of Country Life" also came up for - consideration, a number of the members giving their views on the subject. One of the features of the afternoon session was a talk by H. F. Keyes of the Connecticut Agricultural colege at Storrs. Mr. Keyes select- ed “Iixtension Work” for his topic. His talk was most instructive and was closely followed by the audience. May Arrest Chicken Thief. Constable Nelson Sucie of West- waod Park, who has spent some time investigating the disappearance of chickens from the henneries of Alfred Anderson, which are located near the Connecticut Trap Rock quarries on the New ' Britain road, called on Grand Jurer M. A. Norton this morning to ask for a warrant for the arrest of an Italian living near White Oak, who he suspects is the thief. Officer Nelson claims that he has sufficient evidence against the man to convict him and it is probable that he will make an arrest before to- marrow. His case seemingly depends on the matter of identification, a gray sweater figuring largely in that feature. Mr. Anderson has suspected a man wut-l ing such a garment and last night he expressed the opinian that Offcer Sucie’'s quarry was the guilty party. | The suspect had'denied to the police- man that he owned a sweater, but when his home was searched one was found. He donned it for the bene. fit of the witness who claimed he was willing to come into court and testify against him Prosecutor Norton sent the officer after other witnesses who, it is claimed, have information regarding chickens in the suspect’s possession and if their story proves (o of merit, a war- rant for the man's arrest will be is- sued. $6 Fine for Drunk. was fined 35 for breach of the peace and $1 for in- toxication this morning by Justice A H.

Officer Philip Marino, the newly ap- pointed dog waiden, has started on the trail of unlicensed canines and he has a large St. Bernard, owned by Irank Margonelli of New Britain road. as his first prisoner. The animal has been placed in the basement of the Town hall, which the officer will use as his pound. Marino found the animal on the street. It evidently had been shot, as there was a gaping wound in its neck from which blood was flowing freely. The owner;did not know last night whether or not be wanted to pay the $5 fee to get back the animal, but this morning he asked the officer to delay killing it at least until to- night, ac- fees. Lauds Billy Sunday. John E. Lamb of this place has joined the ranks of the admirers of Billy Sunday, the famous evangelist, and after hearing him preach he is ready to vouch for him. Mr. Lamb attended one of the meetings of the celebrated preacher last Saturday in Paterson, N. J. The huge tabernacle in which the meeting was held was crowded and many had to be turned away. The capacity of the structure is estimated at about 10,000, Mr, Lamb was greatly impressed with Sunday’s style and he was not inclined to agree with those who claim the evangelist plave too much to the gallery and makes his hearers “*hit the trail” by his spectacular man- nerisms instead of the doctrine ha preaches. Mr. Lamb thinks Sunday’'s personality is his chief power. His sliding about the platform, jumping on chairs and the many contortions he goes through seem to be natural to him, Mr, Lamb thinks, and are sim- ply methods of fllustrating the anec- dotes he recites.
