Keeney Victim of Accideat in His Barn o0 Washingtom Sireet 70 ADDRESS VEIERANS ONLOY-LTY Patriotic Exercises in the Advent Chrléunn Church Sunday Evening— New Books at the Library—Fifty® five Hoyr Schedule at Knitting Mill, Frederick C. Keency, an old and is confined to his home on Washington street and is suffering from painful body bruises | and contusions, the result of a fall ‘down the stairs in his barn Vvester- day. While his injuries, under or- dinary circumstances, would not be regarded as serious his friends are greatly concerned over his condition on account of his advanced age. Mr. Keeney is eighty-one years old and although he was quite active for one of his years until a few weeks ago, when an attack of grip affected him, there is'fear that the accident will make him helpless for several months at least. Mr.' Keeney was at work in the barn when he was hurt. He was pull- inging up a loose strip of board from the floor when the wood snapped sud- denly and he lost his balance, falling backward down the stairs. He was carried into the house where his in- juries were attended to by Dr. C. W. Moody. This morning the injured man was reported to be suffering greatly from the wound he received. Mr. Keeney recently celebrated his sixtieth wed- ding anniversary. He has been a resi- dent of Plainville nearly all his life and has many friends in this place who earnestly hope for his recovery.

Commander E. 8. Williams and other members of Manross post, G. A. R., were busy today making final preparations for the ecxercises to be held on Monday in cannection with the decorating of the graves of the old soldiers who have been mustered out of the service by death. Markers were placed on the last resting places of the veterans in the various ceme- teries and many of the plots were made presentable for the Memorial day exercises. The services in Plainville this year will be very simple. The veterans and the members of auxiliaries of the post will go to Forestville in the morn- ing . where exercises, appropriate for the day, will be held at the cemetery. They will return to Plainville before noan, the school children joining them at the town hall. Headed by the Eureka drum corps they will then march to Broad street as far as Whit- ing, goming’ down that street to the monument plot at the center. The Woman's Relief Corps will conduct the services here. The veterans and Sons of Veterans will then proceed to West cemetery, where they will strew flow. ers on the graves of the old soldiers. A detall from the post will decorate the soldiers’ graves in St cemetery. Autos have been offered by local people for the use of the veterans and the members of the Relief Corps on that day. Many New “Jitneys.” The ranks of the “jitneys"” oper- ating between Plainville. and neigh- boring places, were augmented today by a number of new machines, the owners of which have laid out routes which they propose to cover on Sun- day and Memorial day, continuing the service regularly if the business war- rants. Two new cars started on the New Britain line, and although passengers were charged ten. cents for the ride, the autos seemed to be in great de- mand. A line to Unionville and Col- linsyille was also opened and new cars, carrying’ signs bidding for pas- sengers to Compounce, were also in evidence today for the first time. A charge of ten cents is to be made for this trip, the “jitney” men claiming that the road to the lake is so rough that a five-cent fare would be insuffi- cient to cover the expense of keeping their cars in repair, Competition between the '‘jitney drivers is now very keen and their shouts for business give color to the scene at Central Square. Charge Changed to Theft. $tate’s Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn has changed the. chargze against William Meleski, bound over from Plainville, and the young man will be put to plea in the superior court Tuesday for theft, instead of burglary.

When he was about to leave in the morning he discovered the wheel, taking it to New Haven with him. He was subse. quently arrested in the Blm City. The authorities here claimed that the barn was locked after he had entered it and that it was necessary for him to get out through a windaw, later break- ing open the door té get the bicycle, He was charged with burglary "here but the state's attorney will bring him before the higher court as an alleged thief.
