The man w and was when he | ficer. Boyle was given a sentence of thirty days in jail when he appeared in court this morning before Justice E. P. Prior. The accused claimed that he ' came to Plainville seeking work at the transfer station and some of his now found acquaintances furnish- ed him with liquor, over-estimation of his capacity resulting in his getting drunk. Grand Juror Norton recommended jail sentence, arguir that the town is being overrun with hoboes who v Plainville ostensibly to get employ- ment, but who instead spend most of their time exploring for drink. Constable Downing took the accused il after court. ; Sixteen Quit Work. Sixteen of the men employed a in dange was dis the freight transfer station failed to re- port for work yesterday and it was subsequently learned that after draw- ing fheir wages Thursday night they decided to give up their jobs. Many of them celebrated the severance of their relations with the New Haven road yesterday, and there = were “drunks” galore about the streets dur- ing the day. They caused no trouble, however, and were not molested by the authorities. The personel of the force at the station changes almost every week, the agent having to employ large gangs following pay-d Thus fz no trouble has been experienced in getting men to take the places of those who quit, applicants reporting by the score every weel Where all the prospective freight handlers come from is a source of considerable mystery to the officials at the station and the townspeople as well. Most of them are of the tramp type, at least in appearance, and they make their way into town by freight. All nationalities are repre- sented and in every group which ap- plies for work may be seen men who have worked in almost every state in the union and some who have varied their experience by visits to Europe. It is a motley crowd and han- dled with difficulty. Fearing to keep their wages on their person, the men usually become patrons of the postal savings banlk and most of them have accounts af- ter their first pay-day. After they have been here two or three weeks they withdraw their savings, which amount to from $10 to $20 and the dust of Plainville is then shaken from their heels. Some of them are men of educa- tion, who are ‘‘down‘on their luck,” others are of the globe-trotting tvpe, and in the balance there are often found homeless creatures who speak familiarly of the methods emploved in prisons in various parts of the country. While the center is frequently dot- ted with staggering derelics, who are on the company's payroll, the amount of trouble caused by the gang thus far has been surprisingly small. Funcral of Mrs. Skinner. With Rev. W. P. Kilcoyne officiat- ing, the funeral of Mrs. John Skinner was held this morning from the Church of Our Lady of Mercy. A high mass of requiem was celebrated Mrs. Skinner had many friends in Plainville and vicinity and the funeral largely attended. There were beautiful floral contributions. al was in St. Joseph's cemetery. Local Boys Gets Degree. Lewis V. H.
