John Geery, who for the past two months has been employed as a labor- er at N, W Baldwin's farm, proved himself to be a very elusive indi- ‘vidual Sunday morning. Geery had been sent out to get some hay by Seiectman Baldwin Saturday morning but he did not return until 3 o’clock Sunday morning. Mr. Baidwin upon exemining the horses found n;em to be in an exhausted condition. The wagon, which had just been painted, also looked as if it had some hard wear, one shaft being broken. Bald- win telephoned to Sheriff Clark to ar- rest the man. When the officer of the law arrived Geery had kicked the dust of Berlin from his feet and was con- spicuous by his absence.

The sham battle was to be under the direction of Commander-in-chief John Bartmaniski of the National Alllance of Hartford. Up to press time the two contending forces had not met but it is anticipated that they will before sundown. ‘A large number of ambulances and red cross nurses and doctors were re- ported to be followng n the wake of the armies to give first aid to the wounded combatants.

ACTION CAUSES MUCH SURPRISE Dewey Declares OflIcer_ Got in Predtc- ament Making a Reappointment In- advisable—Successor Not Yet Se- lected—Briefs, Like a bolt from the blue came the announcement this morning that County Sheriff Edward L. Dewoy has decided against reappointing as one of hs deputies, Willlam C. Hart of this place, who has served as an officer of the county for the past three years. numbered among the deputies named to succeed themselves and when the Herald in- quird of Sheriff Dewey as to the lo- cal man’'s status the information was given that after the expiration of his term tonight the officer will cease to be a servant of the county. Sheriff Dewey admitted that he had not chosen Mr. Hart's successor and applications for the place. The depu- ties are to begin a new term tomorrow and having failed of reappointment Officer Hart will be expected to turn in his badge. 2y Sherff Hart's recent arrest and con- viction in Bristol on the charge if de- livering liquor in a no license town without having the proper orders is given as the cause for his removal { from the office. While he did not wish to discuss the matter, declaring that there was no occasion for giving it much publicty Sheriff Dewey admitted that the deputy’s arrest put him in an unfortunate light and the failure to reappoint him was but a logical re- sult. Officer Hart was fined $10 and costs a week ago for having on one of his livery teams for delivery in Bristol, a keg of beer, for which he dd not have an order showing his teamster to be the legal servant of the owner. He took an appeal to the superior:courl and the case has not as yet been dis- posed of by that tribunal. The local sheriff has maintained that as a com- mon carrier he had the right to de- liver the beer. His team was hired to carry the keg to Bristol and he simply furnished the driver to make the delivery. There was no effort on his part to smuggle the beer into the neighboring city and the officer de- clares that he had no intention of violating the law. In fact'he believes he was acting within his legal rights and he has announced hls intention of going before a jury to prove his innocence of wrong doind In his talk with a Herald man this morning, Sheriff Dewey admitted it possible that the Plainville officer may not have done any wrong. How- ever, he confessed that it looked bad for a deputy sheriff to get into a pre- dicament of this character and for the good of the department his reappoint- ment was not advisable. The sheriff did not even intimate that there was anything other than Mr. Hart's arrest behind his removal. The officer seemingly had not been working in harmony with some of the local officials and when it was re- ported here that he would fall of re- appointment there was a belief in some quarters that pressure had been brought to bear to have him deprived of hs badge. Mr. Dewey denied that such was the case. Sheriff Hart has served both the town and county as a police officer for a number of years. He has always been faithful in the performance. of his duties and was a very conscientious officer. He was ever considerate to- wards men unfortunaté enough . to come in contact with him, after they had violated the laws, and he treated them with a kindness seldom shown by a policeman, He has a large hum- ber of friends in town who will be surprised and disappointed over ‘the action of his superior in dropping him from his department, With simple but impressive ser- vices Plainville today paid tribute to ‘the men who fought for the preserva- tion of the Union and have since answered the call of their Creator. The town accorded the usual honors brother, Jack, who has been stationed for the past three years at the Phil- lipines. Arthur Starkey of Brooklyn, N. Y., in town Sunday,, While riding on the handle bars of a bicycle belonging to James Garrity, William King, "aged thirteen years, of New Britain was slightly injured Sat- urday, when the bicycle collided with one of 'George Baldwin's coal teams, near the Fair grounds. Dr. George P. Dunham dressed the boy’s injuries and then took the little fellow to his home in New Britain, TO SUE BERLIN BUTCHER., Carlo China Seeks $1,000 Damages— Il from Tubercular Beef.

Although the meat was eaten by China over a week ago he is still sick. China endeavored to have DeMotta pay for his doctor bills but the butcher absolutely refused to do so, Plainville News |PUKE OF GENOA DEWEY DROPS HART NOW ACTING AS' ITALY’S KING Rome, May §1.—Prince Thomas of Savoy has been delegated to act as king of Italy while King Victor Em- manuel is at the front. ‘The following decree, appointing him to act for the king, was published in the Official Gazette: “We, Victor Emmanuel, on the report of. the president of the cabinet and after hearing the advice of the council of ministers, have ap- pointed our most beloved uncle, Tomasso of Savoy, duke of Genoa, our licsutenant general during our absence from the capital.

Bulkeley camp, Sons of Veterans,, turned out in force to decorate the graves of the deceased soldiers, and pay respects to their valiant deeds and their memory with exercises at the monument plot in the center. In the cemeteries in Plainville are buried the bodies of sixty-nine of the men who were ready to sacrifice their lives for their county. On the mounds which mark their last resting places flowers were strewn today and the vet. erans who still live paused to pay a tribute to thelr memory. The principal exercises were held in the cemetery in Forestville, the local veterans participating. Prior to their visit to the burying ground they par- aded through the neighboring village keeping step to martial music fur- nished by the Eureka Drum corps. At the graveyards words of welcome were given by E. 8 Williams, post com- mander, Rev. H. 8. Still followed with prayer and there were remarks by Post Commander J. Fayette Douglass. Norman Loveland recited Lincoln’s address at Gettysburg, after which Rev. Mr. Still made a stirring address. The exercises were largely attended. Shortly before noon the post and its auxiliaries re-assembled at the Town hall in Plainville, when they were Joined by the children of the local schools. ' The young people carried flags. After a short parade the vet- erans and members of the other pa- triotic organizations gathered at the monument plot at Central Square to take part in the services conducted by the Woman's Rellef corps. The old soldiers were then taken to West cemetery in automobiles. At this burying ground they paid a visit to the graves of their departed com- rades, placing bouquets before their tombstones. A detail from the pzst decorated the graves in St. Joseph's cemetery. Sermon on “Loyalty.” The veterans of the town were the guests of Rev. J. W. Denton at patrio- tic services held last evening .in the Advent Christian church. With the members of the relief corps and the sons of veterans the old soldiers were invited to take part in divine worship in memory of the men lald down their lives for the nation, and they marched to the church in a body. An eloquent sermon, appropriate for the day, was delivered by the pas- tor, Rev. J. W. Denton. “Loyaity” was the subject of the pastors talk. Mr. Denton is an exceptionally capable pulpit orator and he made a deep im- pression on the large congregation, Young Men May Settle, While the five young men who ap- pealed from the. judgment of Justice A.

Suit Against Minello, Claiming that he brought the. agree- ment entered into at the time of tie sale of property, Albert Halpern has brought a civll action against James Minello of this place, asking for dam- ages of $4,200, Papers in the suit have been served by Deputy Sheriff A. P. Margh and property owned by Minello has been placed under at- tachment. Minello recently transferred to Hal- pern in exchange for property in New Britain the stock and good will of the Central Meat market on West Main street and a house and lot ‘on Whiting street. Some cash was also to have been passed in connection with the deal. A few days ago Halpern was made defendant in ‘a suit brought by a New York woman to recover for money alleged to be due on a note and the market was attached. Halpern now claims that Minello is not living up to the conditions of the property transfér. Minello stated to- day that Halpern evidently thinks he fared badly in the deal and he wants to have the transfer nullified a pro- cedure to which the local man strongly objects. : Settle, Out of Court.
