RAGING CHAUFFEURS ARRESTED AND FINED Jotm Moran and Peter Service Pay | $10 Each for Speeding John Moran, chauffeur for Howard C. Noble, and Peter Service, demon- strator for William Morrin, were each figed $10 and costs by Judge John H. Kiritham in police court this morning on a charge of reckless driving, Both smen pleaded guilty. The offense was committed last Friday afternoon and Officers William Hayes, Willlam Strolls and William McCuc, who happenned to be sta- tioned at various points along East Main street, all testified that the two automobile drivers were racing down the strcet in an easterly direction. For"a part of the distance they were driving abreast, Service on the ex- treme right side of the road and Mor- an next to him. When near the North & Juld Foremen’s club Service slowed down and Moran sped past him- Admit Speed of 35 Miles. Moran denied any intentlons of rac- ing. He admitted that both cars were bowling along the street at thir- ty-five miles an hour. He said he drove up behind Service and when he nitempted to go past him the latter gpeeded up. He did the same thing _AFTER YOU ARE FORTY Forty is the age of greatest effort with most people. Vitality is used up at the most rapid pace. The struggle to secure & competence for old age produces nerve strain, the failure to succeed causes worry, nervousbreakdown, neurasthenia. Middle-aged people find that they can- ot.run as fast, nor are they as agile as in ybuth. The internal organs also feel the effect of age. The digestion resents things that it accepted before, the heart palpitates on slight exertion, the muscles of the back ache after a day’s work. Your blood is thinner and not so bright a red as formerly. 3 When these things occur, whether you are fourteen or forty, you need a tonic. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills suit most peo- pleis need because they arenon-alcoholic and they really build up the blood and strengthen the nerves. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are useful for growing children and for men and women whose nervous energy has been overdrawn. They are certainly worthy of a trial in every case of weak nerves and thin blood. Your druggist sells Dr. Williame’ Pink Pills or they will be sent by mail, post- , on receipt of price, 50 cents per x, six boxes $2.50 by the Dr. Williams [Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Write oday for free booklets on the blood and arnd in that manner they went along, he trying to pass and Service holding the right side of the road at a similar speed. Mora told the court he has driven for nine years and has operated a car in every New England state but not until today had he éver been in court, Colton D. Noble, son of Moran's employer, also testified to his good character and ability as a driver. The testimony offered by Service was much the same. He sald he had driven a car for nine years and was never before in trouble. Although he too, admitted that the two cars were hitting thirty-five miles an hour he de- nied that thlere was any danger to teams or people as there was a clear road ahead. He said he stopped just east of Elm street. Small Boys Arrested. Two small boys, Stanley Kowalski and Teofil Guida, were in chambers charged with the theft of a copper boiler. Stanley’s father had been summoned tc appear but did not snow up, so the cases were continued until tomorrow when the boy's father will be compelled to attend. These two boys are two of those who were ar- rested last summer by Officer Fred ‘Wagner near White Oak for stripping copper from abandoned trolley cars. At that time the officer had to chase them down the tracks and could not catch them until he had fired a shot into the ground to scare them. At the time Officer Wagner had consider- able fun with one of the youngsters. He said: “Whew! sonny, that was a close shot. Did you feel it whiz past your head?” The boy turned pale and articulat- ing as best his chattering teeth would permit, told the officer that he not only heard the bullet whiz past his head but saw it as well, when in real- ity it was buried in the ground at thas ofiicer’s feet the moment it was diy- charged McLAGAN TO RESIGN, Donald K. McLagan, second lieuten- ant of Company E, C. N. G., has an- announced his intention of resigning. Mr. McLagan is a foreman for the Hart & Cooley Co., which is very busy, and he feels that the press of work is 1oo great to allow any time for mili- tary duties. Despite this, however, he is being strongly urged to reconsider his decision to resign from the com- pany. Quarter Master Sergeant A, H. Johnson and Sergeant Willlam B. Webster will go to Hartford in the | near future to take examinations for | the eligible list.' Billiard Champion Coming.
