P. Marsh of New Britain having served papers on e market- man in their interests today, Through Attorney J. H. Kirkham of New Brit- ain the corporation has brought suit for $400 for an amount due for goods sold to the defendant. The pa made returnable before the court of common pleas in June, This is the third suit to be brought against Halpern since he purchased ‘the market two weeks ago. The store is closed pending a settlement of the litigation. Following the starting of preceed- ings against him. Halperh brought Minello into the ‘tangle by bringing suit against him for $4,200, the resuit of a difference over the transfer of property. Minello took land and building in New Britain in. exchangs for stock and good will of th ket and some property on Whiting sireet. There was to he a cash pay- ment in addition but before there was any change in the ownership of money, a dispute arose and the serv- ing of papers followed. Halpern de- clares Minello failed to live up to the agreement made when the propriy transferred. The local man denies this and sets up a claim that Halpern wants to back out of the deal. Efforts have been made to settle the difficulties of the pair but thus far they have met with no success. pern, Directors to Meet. The June meeting of the board of directors of the Business and Tmn-- provement asociation is scheduled for this evening in the club rooms in the 0Odd Fellows block. Ths Is the first session of the board since the annual meoting of the association and there will be one new member in attend- ance, C. H. Newton having been se- Icted to succeed H. C. Thompson, It is probable that President F. T. Wheeler will announce his committee appointments for the year at the meeting. Porterhouse for Paupers. That G. DeLucia and his family were preparing to live high at the ex- pense of the town is made apparent by the.receipt of a bill sent to the se- lectman by J. Minello, owner of the | market where supplies were ordered for the tailor’s household. Included in the statement is an item for porter- house steak at 35 cents a pound. The bill amounts to $9.10 for goods de- livered in a short period and Select- man Johnson has refused to pay it. DeLucia's 'friends callgd on the se- lectman some time agg and suggested that the town furnish food for his family as he was in a bad way finan- cally and there was nothing in the house for his wife or children to eat. Selectman Johnson has been looking after the poor in generous fashion during the winter and after investi- gating the tatlor's condtion gave per- mission to Minello to' send supplies to the DgLucia house, the bill for one order not to cxceed $3. It was agreed that should any more be required the town would send another order at the proper time. Things brightened up materially for DeLugia at once and judging from the itemi§ of the bill sent to the select- man there was a real banquet at the ‘tailor’s house. Porterhouse steak, tho selectman considers, is a little too ex- pensive for town charges and he has agreed to pay the marketman $2, tho maximum amount which he allowed for the first order. Minello has pro- ‘tested but the selectman has given ‘him no satisfaction, advising that ie will refuse to raid the town treasury for the balance. To Exhibit School Work., . The annual exhibition of school work and drawings will ve held in the Grammar school building Thursday ard Friday, June 10 and 11, and will be open to visitors on Thursday from 3 to 6 and 7 to 10 p. m.

Doolittle, aged three yeare, who was ruz dowp and killed in 2 th Haven on tiay 25 by an automebile owned and operated by ihe district’s representative at the capitol. Responsibility for the fatal- ity was placed on the senator in the finding of Coroner Mix made public iagt evening, \ Mystery connected with the identity of Senator Pierson’s female . com- ranion at the time of . the accident was cleared by the coroner. who an- nounced in his report that Mrs. Alice Kummell of Hartford, said to be a stenographer or bookkeeper at one time in the senator’s employ, wes in the car'when the boy was run down, £he refused to discuss the mattet vith newspapermen and has heen Gguoted as denying that sne knew any- thing about it. Her name, however, appears among those testifying at the ceroner's inquest, Senator Pierson nas also declined to comment on the coroner’s report. In placing the blame on the senator, Coroner Mix said that Plerson ‘“‘was driving the vehicle at a raze of speed estimated to-be twenty miles per hour at the time deceased was struck.” Continuing, he reports that “Pierson was not aware deceased was on the Lighway until he was practically upon him, and that he was not keep- ing a proper lookout and observing that degree of caution and care re- quired of him in the use and operation of a motor vehicle upon a public khighway, and was driving the same in | a reckless, unsafe and careiess man- ner.” The report has been flled with the superior court of New Haven county and Senator Pierson will probably be brought before that tribunal for trial. Goes to Reformatory. Michael Meleski was taken to the | state reformatory in Cheshire today to serve an indeterminate sentence imposed yesterday in the superior court by Judge Case, following a plea of guilty to the charge of theft made by the accused. g Meleski was accused of stealing a bicycle and an overcoat from the barn of Charles C. Seymour on East Main street. He was bound over by Justice Condell as a burglar but the state’s attorney changed the charge to theft before the accused was put to plea in Hartford. While there were several appeals rfom the local court scheduled to come up before Judge Case at the June term, Meleski was the only man tried here who was put to plea. The other appeals were withdrawn before the cases were called, a set- tlement having been made by the men accused.
