McMahon'’s thirty-five prize dairy feattle, his neighbor, L. S. Dean, who empounded the animals Monday after- noon, was forced to turn them loose and once more they are grazing on the McMahon meadows. The cause of the “trouble between the two farmers still exists however, and this morning Dean called upon First Selectman W. H. Gibney to act as fence viewer in the dispute. The statutes provide that selectmen of towns shall act In the ca- » pacity of fence viewers when such » disputes arise and their decision stands in law unless an appeal is taken. According to Farmer Dean's claim he has repaired his line fence and placed it in proper condition, but he maintains that McMahon is indifferent and has repeatedly refused to take care of his portion of the boundary fence. As a result it is possible for .either man’s cattle and swine to break out and traverse the lands of the other. Mr. Dean maintains that he is anxious to obey the law and keep his animals within confines, but ap- parently is unable to interest his neighbor in like action. Fly From New York. George Shaw, the leading spirit in the Lake View Racing Pigeon club, ssent eleven carriers to New York by train at 3 o’clock this morning and they were released by the station offi- cials in the metropolis according to instruction at 7 o'clock. Two hours later three of the birds had reached the home cote on the shore of the pond in Kensington village, the birds | at the rate of over 50 miles an hour. Mr. Shaw says this is nothing unusual, as he has several birds with records of one hour and fif- teen minutes from New York. He has another bird that has a record of 447 miles for a flight of a little over twelve hours. The Lake View club has now four members who are en- thusiastic breeders and flyers of rac- ing pigeons and the club expects to ompete with some of the larger or- « ganizations during the season. Mr. Shaw has a fine place for hous- ing his birds on the shore of the pond as there is a wide space over the pond to the southward where a good view of the birds returning from flights can 4 Dbe had. having flown Surprise Shower.

Plainviil_e Ne}/vs RUSSELL MUST PAY Justice Condell Gives Decision in Non-Support Case ACCUSED TAKES APPEAL Court Rules Wife Is Entitled to One- half Husband’s Transfers Land To Rockwell-Drake Her Income— Co.—Talks To Grangers—Briefs. Ruling that a wife is entitled to at least one-half her husband’s income, Justice A. H. Condell has ordered conviction in the a case of Thomas G. Russell who was recently brought into court to answer to a charge of non-support. Justice Condell h ruled that Russell may contribute a week towards his wife's support for a period of one year. When advised of the decision Judge W. J. Malone of Bristol notified the court that he would take an appeal for Russell; bringing the case before a jury at the fall term of the Superior court. The case has attracted unusual at- tention owing to the fact that the couple are well known and because their marital affairs have been before the public on other occasions since they became estranged over a year ago. Russell faced the court on a non- support charge last Saturday. His wife presented evidence to show that some months ago the accused ar- ranged to give her $7 a week for her support. For a number of weeks prior to his arrest she told the court he had failed to make a settlement and had offered no satisfactory ex- planation. The young man offered no defense but in reply to questions from the justice declared that while he had considerable property inter- ests which came into his possession after the death of his father, he had no ready cash, This statement was something of a | surprise to Justice Condell who had | been among those to appear before the probate court to testify in favor of removing a conservator, who had been named to handle his business af- fairs. At the time the justice said he thought the young man should be given a chance to make good. When he learned, however, that his money had been spent he declared from the bench that a conservator should again be appointed. After the hearing he reserved deci- sion for the purpose of investigating his income to determine what amount his wife was entitled to. In giving his ruling he stated that Mrs. Rus- sell has a right to at least half her husband’s income and he ordered the defendant to pay $9 weekly to her. There is seemingly a disposition on the part of Russell and his relatives to fight the c and it is expected that a jury will eventually be asked to decide on the merits of Mrs. Rus- sell’s claims.

Sub- sequently the Rockwell-Drake corpo- ration erected a factory building on the land and they now have the plant in operation.
