The services were conducted by Rev. 8. A. Fiske, pastor of the Berlin Con gregational church, assisted by Re Henry Park Schauffler, formerly pa: tor of the church and at present, su- perintendent of the Brooklyn City Mission. In accordance with the re- quest of Miss Hovey, the services wera held at her home, rather than the church. Miss Hovey the oldest member of the church was held in high esteem by the community and this was at- tested by the fact, that practically all the residents of the district were pres- ent at the last sad rites. Nearly all present, at one time or another, were taught by her, during her superinten- dency §f the children’s department of the Berlin Congregational church. The services were simple, but impressive. The pall bearers were Francis Dem- ing, E. W. Mildrum, Arthur Woodruft, all deacons of the Berlin Congrega- tional church, and E. E. Honiss. TIn- terment took place in the Wilcox cemetery, East Berlin. Hold Christening. infant son of Rev. and M Park Schauffler of Brook N. Y. was christened Frederick derson Schauffler at the home of his grandparents, Colonel and Mrs. Char- les M Jarvis, this afternoon at o'clock. The ceremony was per- formed by Rev, Dr. George Raynolds, of Van, Turkey, a cousin of the child's her Rev. Dr. Raynolds was as- sited by Rev. S. A. Fiske, pastor nf the Berlin Congregational church. Rev. Dr. Raynolds has just returned from Van, where he was during the seige df that clty. At that time hia wife died and he made his way to this country, escaping from the Turks, Only members of the family were present at the ceremony. Frederick Sanderson Schauffler is the third child of Rev. and M Schauffler. Mrs. Schauffler was formerly Miss Grace Jarvis.

Friday evening he came home about | 11 o’clock and informed her he would not sleep, nor would he allow his wite or children to do so. Finally his re marks became so unbearable, she complained to Prosecutor Gibney, who placed the man under arrest. Mahon Hazen, who lives across the road from the Bouergois family testl- fied he heard a racket in the latter house on’Friday and Mrs. Bouergols came to his home to telephona for an | officer. He said the prisoner is & hard | working man when sober but a differ- ent proposition when under the influ- | ence of intoxicating liquors. The prisoner took the stand own behalf and said he had been working in New Britain until two weeks ago, when he secured more congenial employment in East Berlin. Through his nine years old son, he in- formed his wife of the fact and she applied a vile name to him. This fact discouraged him and he imbibed too freely. Regarding his wife's asser- tion that he threatened to shoot her, he disclaimed any knowledge of it. Prosecutor Gibney characterized the case as one of a mismated couple. He has known the man for some time and always knew him to be a hard working man. There was no question but the man was guilty of a hreach of the peace charge, but it was hard to ask for a conviction. Both people are quick tempered and he offered the suggestion that the man be placed on probation and asked Judgs Griswold to give the couple a lecturc on their marital duties. Judge Gr wold found the accused gullty and im- posed a fine of $7 and costs but sus- pended judgment and ordered tho prisoner to appear at his home every Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock until further notice. After court, Judge Griswold lectured the couple regarding their disagree- ments dnd warned them to do better or drastice action would be taken. | in his | Libera Sarreji.

At the hospital this morning it was reported that the constable was resting com- fortably and unless there are un- looked for developments the patient will be able to leave the institution in | a few day The location of the | wounds indicates that Officer David’s cscape from a fatal knife thrust w | 2Imost miraculous. Both cuts are in his side. The assailants came close | to vital spots and the officer was in- deed lucky to escape with his life. The culprits were reported today to be still at large although the au- thoritics have hopes of rounding | them up. While there were no witnesses of | the assault, except the missing knife | wielders and the officer, who has been unable to give any very com- ! Elete account of the struggle, the au- thorities are reasonably certain that the job was done by the Cappia brothers. It is said that the mcn were intoxicated. They were driving a carriage along West Main strect when they collided with another team near the corner of Pierce street.: As their vehicle was without a light the officer attempted to take them into custody. They resisted and in the struggle which followed, the po- liceman was stabbed twice, his as- | ailants running away. With blood frowing freely from his wounds, the officer went in pursuit of the pair who hurried along West Main street in the direction of Forestville. Near the residence of | Dr. C. W. Moody David, weakened by his injuries, stumbled and fell. He was picked up by a passerby and was subsequently treated by Dr. L. H. { Frost. Grand Juror S. S. Gwillim notificd of the stabhing and after con- | ferring with the physician, arranged 1o have the injured officer removed | to the hospital as it was feared one of his ribs had been hurt as the knife pierced him. The policeman’s assailants are thought to have left town. The Capplas, who the officer reported were the guilty parties, were not fo be found at their home and seeming- Iy they made their getaway immedi- ately after the cutting. Felix Cappia Is evidently a real bad | man. He was in court a few weeks ago on charges of assault and carry- ing concealed weapons but he told such a likely story, which was cor- | roborated by his friends, that he was tet off with a light fine. He had been in a scuffle with one of his friends and the latter received a broken arm when he was thrown to the ground. When Cappla was arrested a few nights later a loaded revolver was found on him. In court the witnesses cxplained that the alleged fight was but a friendly wrestling bout with absolutely no ill feeling. Even the | tnjured man testified for the pris- | ener and the court had no choice but to let him off easy. This time, if he is captured, he will riot escape so luckily. The police of | aifferent towns in this locality have | been asked to be on the lookont for | him and his capture, as well as that of brother, is expected. Conlon Takes Appeal. Thomas Conlon of Whiting street, has taken an appeal to the superior court from the fine imposed on him Saturday afternoon when he was ar- vaigned before Justice A. H, Condell on charges of intoxication and breach of the peace. Conlon's hearing was a sequel to his arrest by Constable Anderson a week ago. The accused was represented by Judge W. I, Mangan of New Rritain wha set up the claim that his client not intoxicated at the time of arrest and that he was locked up because he was unnecessarily mo- lcsted by the officer. The court how- ever, took a different view of the matter, and imposed a fine of $20 for intoxication and $5 for breach of the peace.
