De Maio aws put to trial first and at once pleaded guilty, explaining he had orders that he supposed would comply with the law. The order that he was carrying was given in Lan- dino’s store in New Britain and then delivered in Berlin He had no au- thority as he had no orders in Ber- lin, and not only that but the orders were not in the proper form. His lawyer, J. .A Glover, said that he did not intentionally violate the lay and that his good intentions were shown when he had the orders signed. Judge Griswold fined De aio $50 and costs, making a total of $72.92. ranquillo Is Discharged. Tranquillo was defended by J. G. Woods and was discharged by the court. State Officer Robert Bridgeman testified that he was in Beckley Quarter on October 20, near the American Brick company, when hé saw Tronquillo drive up to a house with a load of beer. He also that Tranquillo took the beer into the house on an order but the woman re- fused to take the beer. The man said that he was employed at Muzzi's cafe in Kensington for $12 a week to week to work about the saloon but Fad no license to deliver. He gave Mr. Bridgeman orders for the rest of the load and the only marks on the goods were revenue tags. There were no marks for the individual per- whom it was consigned.

Mr. White has held his li- cense since the year of no license in 1912. The beer was bottled in New Britain and then taken to his place in Berlin.

Prosecutor Alling id he was sell- ing without a license, that the kegs were all the same, that the place of sale was not one where Mr. White had a license to sell and the sale should have been made at the sa- loon.

Quite a sizeable gathering of Berlin and Kensington residents were at the depot this morning in hopes of catch- ing a glimpse of Charles Evans Hughes, republican candidate for pres- ident, as he passed through this place on his special train enroute for Hart- ford where he spoke at Parson’s theater. The train passed through Berlin at about 11 o’clock but did not stop, or even slow down. The ex- pectant watchers had to content them- selves with the imagination that one of the several heads they saw in the car windows was that of the republi- can candidate. Rally Goes Big. The republicans turned out in style for the get together rally and smoker in Forester’s hall last evening.

When this spot happen to be the stomach, nervous dyspepsia results, appetite vanishes and gives way to dull, dread, uneasiness and a hollow, gnawing feeling that keeps up until every nerve in your body seems on edge. The food you force down won’t digest properly, and you're all in— down and out for one day at least so far as being really useful to yourself or anyone else is concerned. Its the height of folly to force the digestion of food with some pepsin pill when the stomach nerves are in such shape. Nervous indigestion comes from the nerves alone. Get the nerves right and all distress will vanish, Thanks to a remarkable chemical discovery, it is now possible to feed they require when overworked and | unstrung and a preparation Margo Nerve Tablets is ducing remarkable results in the treatment of Nervous Dy- spepsia, and other nerve disorders.

The attendance last night was large and the patrons were even more liberal than the most san- guine members had dared to expect. | The canvassers and workers on the various booths had a big night and | their purses were literally bulging trom the coins they had collected. The hall is attractively decorated for the affair. Autumn foliage has been effectively used in beautifying the place, the decorators showing ex- | cellent taste in the arrangement of Many of the young men of town have again this year given their 4id to the club and they were among the workers last night. The men con- tributed largely towards the success of the opening and their efforts to gather in the money were crowned | with achievement. This afternoon there was a sale of food, fancy articles and candy which attracted a number of women to the hall. A considerable amount was realized from this feature of the af- fair. The garden party will be continued tonight »nd the ladies expect to dls- pose of the articles which remain. The drawing for the miniature auto- mobile and the bicycle on which tickets have beep sold will also take place tonight. It is probable that there will be an auction on donations of fancy articles, etc, during the course of the evening. Judging fron: the start made last night the club should realize several hundred dollars from the undertak- ing. This will be added to the rapid- 1y growing fund established for the benefit of the public library. With- in the next few years the club hopes to be in a position to erect a suit- able building to be used as a reading room and library. An institution of this character is greatly needed in Plainville and the efforts of the club to raise an amount sufficient to malke it possible are deserving of the sup- port of the entire community.
