When the ver- dict had been read by Attorney We ter Pond, the clerk of the court, Mr. Ennis, who had been a most intent listener to the proceedings, including the polling of the jury, laughed quite audibly. Judge Shumway in charging the jury referred to the evidence of Dr. Joseph Marshall Flint, who said that O} s had made a remarkable re- They should consider, the court said, first the relation existing between the plaintiff and the defend- ant on September 14, 1914, at the time the former sustained 'his in- juries, and whether at the time En- nis was an independent contractor, working in his own way; if so that ended the case. Secondly, If the re- lation of master and servant existed, the master supplied the tools and thereby, if the plaintiff himself had been negligent in the use of the tools on the day in question and whether he exercised reasonable care in using them. The witnesses called rday were: Charles J. Brocken, um W. Maloney, Charles A. Led- erer, Emma Colomo and Julius Led- erer. NEW HAVEN’ SUES ONBRIDGE CONTRACT Claims Town of Orange Should Have Paid One-Third New Haven, May 25—Judge Tuttle in the superior court yesterday noon heard the case of the New ven road against the town of Orange. This is a case which involves cost of the bridge over Campbel nue, built in 1908, at an out $17,000. The contention of th road through Attorney Harrison Sheldon and William Bombert of the firm ‘of Watrous and Day, was that one-third of ths. outlay should under the order of the railroad commis- sicners be paid by the town. The town counsel through ney Charles F. Roberts, with whom was z ated George I5. Beers, ar- gued that the tled policy of the state from the earliest time ad been that the railroad should pay the whole expense of bridges and that in order to bring If within the act of 190 which di s the expe! road contended that there change of location of the highway. vhat was done was this: avenue in 1908 was 60 feet wide a at the time the bridge was built in 1871 by the Derby railroad, it was 41 3-4 feet wide. At the time of the al construction of the bridge it ras built with an ovening of 30 feet. The order of the commissioners was that the abutments be carried back so as to give an opening of 69 feet and the question at law is whether that was a change of the location of the highway. The whole amount in- volved is about $7,000, which sum the road wants to be reimbursed, be- ing one-third the cost of the bridge, which it paid for in full, and interest. The trial of the case lasted 20 min- utes but the arguments took two and a half hours. 1 | [ Attor- QUEEN DETHRONED BY CRUEL GUARDIAN She Was Queen of a Carnival But Was Removed From Throne by Police. Waterbury, May 256—A path is not alw: queen’s strewn with ros with | trouble, and, in the particular case | of Gertrude Kenney queen of the May trouble happens to be the stern arm Sometimes her path in strewn with “The Days of '49" ‘carnival, the of the law and a guardian \\'hoi doesn’t approve of Gertrude being a i queen. Miss Kenney is a | local girl not yet sweet 16, and is with the carnival company, playing | Middletown this week and scheduled to play Waterbury next week. Quen Gertie's guardian is decided- ly opposed to allowing the girl to | travel with the carn s she join- | ed it against his will and consent, | and with the end in view of dethron- | ing the queen he went to Prosecut- ing Attorney McGrath yesterday and asked for a warrant for Gertrude's | arrest on the charge of incorrigibility. | The local police got into communi- cation with the Middletown authori- ties and asked that Gertrude be held until a policeman could call to serve the warrant on her. Gertrude | was therefore taken into custody and Detective Sergeant William P. Keegan left for Middletown with the wa nt. Tt is not the intention of her guardian to prosecute, however. He will be satisfled if Gertrude agrees to leave the lifc of the canvas tents. H Very little is known of Gertrude by | the local police. They don’t know her address in this city, if she has one, | nor do they know the name of her guardian, NEW, BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1916. Marimba Records A Musical Novelty HE instant, widespread success of the first Columbia arimba records proved the popu- larity of this novel form of musical expression.

These recordsare splendid reproduc- tions of the power of marimba tone: BLUE DANUBE WALTZ. (Strauss.) Royal THE THREE LS. (Moreno.) Two- step. Royal Marimba Band. NNA. (Hilbert.) Royal and OF GUATEMALA. (V. Hurtado.) Royal Marimba Band. (G. Hurtado.) Marimba Band, WALTZ, = (Strauss.). Royal Marimba Band. FADI X Hurtado Brothers. Columbia Records are consistently first with the m I novelties and hits of the day. You could hear the music of the marimba shortly after Hurtado Brothers introduced it at the Frisco I'air.
