As has been the usual custom the Sons of Veterans have gemerously of- fered their services and will see that the plans of the “Vets"” ar fulfilled to the minutest detail. As Memorial day will be celebrated | on Monday instead of Sunday the } gchool children will consequently be given a holiday in order that they may have the opportunity .to partici- pate in the parade. Fxercises in com- memoration of the day will probably be observed at the local schools on ¥riday, May 28. At this time the Suture citizens.will be told why they should honor the veterans who so gailantly sacrificed their lives in or- der that they today can enjoy benefits which the Veterans had fought to arduously for. And they will be impressed why they snould show appreciation of the veterans while the opportunity presents itself, for soon it will 'be a rare sight to see a “Vet.” Ordered to Leave If William Johnson or Ailex Nelson, who appeared in the courf this morn- ing before Judge Geqrze &.

The apinion that chicken thieves set fire to the barn and chicken coop 'of George Hull which were . destroyed Sunday morhing, was prevalent about the town this morning. When look- ing aver the 'debris after the confla- gration the remains of only about fif- teen chickens could be found. As Mr. Hull was the owner of about sev- enty-five it seems very suspicious thet but such a small fraction of his lost fowls eduld be located. It is prob- able that in stealing the chickens the thieves carelessly dropped a lighted match ‘into hay which was stored in thé barn with the disastrous result. Mr. Hull made a statement last even- ing that he did not have any insur- ance’ on the things which were de- stroyed. : Good Program at Grange. An excellent program has been ar- ranged for the meeting of the Berlin srange which will be held this even- ing at 8 o'clock in .the Old Grange hall on Worthington ridge.

On the witness stand this morning .Mr, Taylor admitted that neither of the men had approachced him or had asked him for any finaneial aid. Ora Edgerly, another witness for the state said that Johnson had ap- ~proached him, but he said that the man had not asked him for any money nor was he begging. = He had simply asked Mr. Edgerly if he could secure a position for him. In their own defense -both men pleaded guilty on the charge of being intoxicated but stoutly denied -ap- proaching people and begging.

Two' court sesslons in progress at the same time was the innovation in- troduced here evening, Justice A.. H.

Grand Juror §. S. Gwillim issued a warrant charging him with intoxication to which he entered a plea of gu}ny. The court was inclined.to be lenient, him | however, and let him off with a sus- pension of judgment, Justice Prior had a more difficult task. He had before him Sumuel Aubreeze, wha had Attorney W. J. Malone.and several friends to defend him against the charge of breach of the peace. The man had been arrested Sunday night by Constable Cornelius Downing, after he had ve- fused to obey the officer’s order to move. Aubreeze's friends, includ- ing Officer Philip Marino, were in. dignant over his arrest and they were out in force last evening, although other business made it impossible for the paliceman to appear in court Constable Downing proved, however that he had given the accused a rea- sonable opportunity to move from the curb and that his authority was de- fied, resulting in a breach of ‘the peace.” The prisoner claimed he was simply saving farewell to some friends who had visited him during the day and that he was not causing any dis- turbance or deporting himself in a manner which necessitated any action by the officer. Despite Judge Malone's objections, Justice Prior v inclined to back up the officer, who he be- lieved was making an honest effort to perform his duty, and he found the accused guilty. An appeal to the superior court was taken. In the case of Avery, Justice Prior also levied an assessment of $2 with the tosts of the court. The to:al was $10.01, the court dropping th= cent as a ten dollar bill was all the money the accused had with him, Avery was charfed with drunkenness. He was arrested Saturday night by Constable Downing. Russell a Philosopher.

The latter picked him up near the center. Russell was lying on the trolley tracks and was in dan- ger of being killed. In court this morning the man was inclined to take a philosophical view of his predicament and he admitted caring but little about the probable punishment that would he given to him. He had been working in Hari- ford for two weeks as driver of a garbage wagon, but he quit yesterday because his employer wéuldn't give him enough to eat. He declared ne couldn’t work without fodder so he gave up his place. He has several sons and daughters in Springfield, his home city, but he knew none of them would pay his fine. He admitted having been ar- rested for drunkenness in Springfield. He had also heen in jail but he said indifferently that it was over a year ago so that didn’t count. The court ordered his removal to Seyms street. Convention Here Tomorrow.

He was “sent up” for from three to five years. Valentine was an accomplice of Donato Moratto in the abduction of the Gloriant girl.

Will Have to Stand Trial. Members of the local quintet rested in March by Officer Marino and subsequently fined by Justice A. H. Condell for breach of the peace will have to pay the fines charges to them at the time or stand trial before a jury in the superior court, State’s Attorney Hugh M. Al- corn having definitely decided, it is understood, to put their cases on the docket for the June term. The opin- ion seemingly prevailed for some time that owing te the fact that the of- fence for which the young men wera arraigned was of sueh a trivial chaer- acter that the state’s attorney would decline to try them before the higher tribunal. Grand Juror 8. 8, Gwillim and Jus- tice A. H.
