INTERNAL REVENUE PLUM FOR REILLY New Britain Native Scon to Re- ceive Appoirtment, 1 is Said. Thomas L. Reilly, former mayor of Ileriden and a representative to the last two congresses, will not long re- 1aain without an officlal title |if rumor is correct, as according to ‘“a little bird,” which has a perch of honor in all properly conducted news- handsome appointment in the govern- ment service. Although the bird has been unable to speak just what the plum will be it is said that Mr. Reilly will soon receive an appointment to the internal revenue service, a d2part- ment to which he has given great erudy. It is evident to Mr. Reilly’s friends that he is in no haste to select a rosition, Thus far he has been offered the editorship of a New Haven paper and a number of government positions with flattering emoluments, but he has shaken his head to each of- fer. He was also tendered $35,000 by post office employes but declined the handsome purse on the ground that the men who contributed towards it could ufe the money purchasing necessities cf life. Now, it is claimed, he is to be appointed to the internal revenue =ervice and, it is said, the berth is to hig liking, One who is very close to Mr. Reilly has the following to say: “Mr. Reilly did not refuse to accept the money the postal employes volun- tarily contributed to . a testimonial fund for him because he had some- thing up his sleeve. The actuating mnotive in declining to become the beneficiary of men for wnom he had worked without thought of pecuniary rTeward was propriety, and nothing eise. He regarded the acceptance of such a gift as transcending the limitis of good precedent and he feit that the men who dug into their pockets could use their hard earned money in a better way. “But Mr. Reilly did refuse the edi- torial position which was offered to him hecause he has something befter or more to his liking in store. He is reasonably sure of a very good place in the federal service, and it will not Le long in coming.” An attempt was made by the Herald today to interview Mr. Reilly at his home in Meriden but he could not be located, Russell’s Best Creamery Butter 34c 1b., 3 lbs, for $1.00.—advt, Eagles’ Speclal Meeting, #pecial meeting of Aerle No. 773, i Best Butter 34c 1b.

R AN || CAMPAIGN BY POLICE Another Sireet Walker Arrested and Convicted---Othar Cases. There seems to be a determined ef- fort on the part of the local police in conducting a moral clean-up cam- paign in New Britain. Last week two flagrant street walkers were arrested and convicted, and at 12:50 .o'clock Sunday morning Oflicer John Carlson arrested Julia Munson, another no- torious street walker. She was charged with drunkenness and street walking in court this morning and jail for ferty-five days, Has Bad Record. The Munson woman has been in the toils for this offense several times and it was brought out she is accus- tomed to solicit on the street. Offi- cer Carlson testified that every time he sees her she has a different man with her. Sunday morning he ar- rested her as she came from behind some freight cars at the Church street crossing in company with two male comparions. The accused asked the court to place her on probation and said she would be a better woman hereafter. She has two children who are living somewhere in New York state. Vicious Assault Attempted. The case of Joseph Kislofski, charged with breach of the peace and assaulting Walenty and Mary Moro- vitch, of 71 Spring street, at midnight Saturday, proved to be rather a nauseating affair. Witnesses testified that Kislofski entered Morovitch's tenement armed with a bottle of whiskey. He offered a swig to Walenty, who refused. He then walked boldly into Mrs. Moroviteh's bedroom, where she was in bed, and sat down on the edge of the bed. He offered her whiskey and then insisted on making improper advances. Wa-~ lenty interferred, but not before Kis- lofski had maltreated his wife to such an extent that her arms, chest and lcwer limbs were badly bruised. A free for all fight then ensued A ficer Willlam Grace made the arrest. Attorney M. D. Saxe appeared for the accused. The court found the accused guilty and imposed a fine of $30 and costs. Bonds of $200 were fixed for an ap- peal. Several Drunks Arrested. Officer John Carlson while patrol- ling his beat Saturday night came upon Mike Smith, who was drunk in a doorway at the corner of Park and Bigelow street. He was arrested and this morning was sent to jail for thirty days, despite his plea that he be permitted to go back to the farm in Middletown. Officer Dart also ar- rested a drunk last night, Peter Kava falling into his clutches. Peter was fined $5. ‘White Wing Is Fined. While in the employ of the city cleaning the streets, William Donlon, one of the staff of ** ite wings,” “had one drink too man aturday after- noon and was arrested by Officer Michael Cosgrove to save him from falling head first into the waste can. He cheerfully admitted his guilt. A fine of $5 and costs was imposed. John Ahern, drunk, was arrested by Officer Nesta at the corner of Washington and North streets Officer Strolls arrested Edward Fuller for a similar offense. Fines of $56 and costs were imposed. Echo of Willow Street Fight There was an echo of Friday's Wil- low street fight when Gustiano Mayo was fined $7 and costs for assaulting Adam Gentle. The trouble started, explained Mayo, when his brother in- sisted on playing pool rather than working. The bartender put the brother out when Gentle objected. Mayo surrendered, himself voluntarilly late Friday night. $2 for Shoes—Impossible “Wife, I want $2 to buy a pair of shoes. My soles are worn out and even now I'm walking on my stocking feet. Stockings are expensive and wear out rapidly, so I need the money. Come across A request somewhat similar to the above was made by Adam Cook, of Elm street, of his faithful spouse, Her reply was some- what as follows: “Two dollars! What do you think I am? A bank? 1Indeed 1 shall not glve you two of your hard earned dol- lars for such extravagance. Summer is coming and you can go barefoot like little Johnnie. that " Adam said his wife tried to hit him with a plate and he pro- tected himself. He was placed on probation for a month. Steppler Case Settled. The case of Mrs. Charles Steppler versus her husband ‘was settled this morning when Attorney J. G. Woods and Prosecutor Klett agreed that Steppler should pay his wife $8 a week for a year. Failure to do this will cause him to serve sixty days in jail. Mrs, Steppler took much interest in the settlement and interrupted the next case to inquire of Prosecutor Kiett when these payments will start. She was told they would begin on Saturday of this week and she ap- peared much relieved. Macaroni Is Fined. Theodore Macaroni, a good natured Italian, was fined $7 and costs for breach of the peace on Oak street last night He interfered with the Martini family, who live across the street, and was arrested by Officer Storey. Mr, Martini told of the trou- ble, but said, *“Macaroni is a good friend of mine when sober and I don't want to be too hard on him. The court will do me a good favor if he is not too hard.” Take that and | - WHAT TO DO FOF ITCHING SKINS Eczema, ringworm and other itching, burning skin eruptions are so easily made worse by improper treatment that one has to be very careful. There is one method, however,.that you need not hes- itate to use, even on a baby’s tender skin—that is, the resinol treatment. Resinol is the prescription of a Balti- more doctor, put up in the form of res- inol ointmoné) and resinol soap. This proved so remarkably successful that thousands of other physicians have been prescribing it constantly for 20 years. Resinol stops itching instantly, and almost always heals the eruption quick- ly and at little cost. Resinol ointment and resinol soap can be bought at any druggist’s. CLEARS BLOTCHY SKIN Try resinol soap for a week. You will be surprised to see how it clears and freshens your complexion, even in that short time. Used for the sham- 00, it removes dandruff and kecps the air live, rich and lustrous. This is because it contains the soothing, heal- ing resinol medication. ITALY T0 ENTER WAR ON SIDE OF ALLIES Before Italian Paricment Convengs In May, Gard Id’s Impressicn. | | Paris, April 26, 5:30 a. m.—A friend and brother officer of Peppino Gari- the Petit Journal that Garibaldi gained the from interviews with King Emmanuel, Premier Salandra, eign Mijnister Sonnani and promi- nent politicians that Italy would en- ter the war on the side of the allie: before parliament convenes in N\ baldi has informed impression Victor for- Von Buelow Paris, April 26, 5:20 a. m.—A dip- lomat accredited to the Quirinal who requested that his name be not dis- closed, told the Matin's Geneva cor- respondent thae In a conversation with Prince Von Buelow on April 19, the German ambassador appeared pessimistic over the outlook for a peaceful solution of the Austro- Italian difficulties. “The situation is obscure,” Von Buelow is quoted as saying, “and I expect no good can come from it. Italy's pretensions are such that it is impossible for Austria to accept them. On the other, hand, Itallan military preparations are as. suming such proportions that the | hypothesis of simple diplomatic pres- | sure becomes inadmisgsible. Evi- dently the object of the negatiations was to gain time.” Pessimistic. Prince Will Prorogue Parliament. Rome, April 26, via Paris, 9:05 a. m.—The opinion prevails in parlia- mentary circles that if no definite decision as to Italy's participation in the war is reached previous to May 12, the date upon which the cham- ber of deputies reconvenes, parlia- ment will be prorogued. International questions could not be discussed in parliament while they were still under negotiation, it is argued, and it would be absurd and almost undignified for parlia- ment to discuss trifling matters when such highly important questions were before the country. Furthermore, the chamber has given full powers to the cabinet, And nothing has oc- curred to destroy this confidence. King Holds Conferences. King Victor Emmanuei met the members of the cabinet in confer- ence yesterday. He talked at length with Premiar Salandra and For- eign Minister Sonnani on the sit- uation and after. they had gone he was claseted for an hour with Min- ister of War Zupelli, Referring to the international fi- nancial situation created by the war. the Giornale D'Italia says the United States, at the end of hostilities, will be the only country to have secured large ecaonomic profit. The paper then gives statistics to show the crease in American expo and says further: “This war which is de- vouring Europe is a magnificent thing, financially, for the United States. 40,000 Called to Colors.
