C. will not play the Acorns this coming Sunday at Kin- goe’s field and locals have secured the Tigers of New Britain to take their place. The Tigers are rated as one of the fastest teams for their weight in the state and have made all comers huetle that they have met this fall Last Sunday's lay off did the locals a world of good so that when thej g0 onto the fleld this week they will be in the best of shape for one of the fastest games yet put on in thi town. The Tigers have plaved the best that could be found and proved that they are some:team even if ‘they are considered light.

Attorney William H. Maltbie Hartford, was in town today information for of securing in connection with the presentation of the case against Joseph Salerno, charged with wife murder, should the con- fessed slayer be brought to trial be- fore a jury in the superior court. With Constable Philip Marino, who was ordered by State's Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn to 100k up evidence, Lawyer ife, who is Mr. Alcorn's as: sited the Salerno house West Main street where the wife was slain and made nge- ments for securing data which will be used in the preparation of the case. Photographs of the house and the room in which the crime was com- mitted will be obtaified and measure- ments will be taken to show the di tance between the scene of the mur- der and the Plainville pond near which the slayver was found bleeding from a number of wounds which he had inflicted in an effort to end his own life. State’s Attorney Alcorn’s attention was not called to the case official until Tuesday when Constable M rino reported at his office to give in- formation in connection with other Plainville affairs which are to be con- sidered by the superior court at the term which opens on the first Tuesday in December. Justice A. H. Condell had not delivered the warrant on which Salerno was bound over up to that time and Mr. Alcorn secured it later. sending a request for the docu- ment through the local constable. Because of his lack of information concerning the crime the state’s at- torney has not indicated what course he will pursue but he proposes to follow the usual course of getting all the evidence available should it be necessary to bring the prisoner into court to face a jury. Relatives of the murderer have re- tained Attorney Benedict M. Holden of Hartford. to represent him. Mr. Hol- den is said to have conferred with the prisoner in the Hartford jail. where he was taken after his hearing in Plainville. and it was decided to make insanity the should the 0 to trial. T.ocal authorities that they have not unearthed of evidence to show a motive for the crime. The fact that the woman was killed and that Salerno admits re- sponsibility for the murder is the only information in their possession. Salerno has persistently main- tained that he had no cause for the murder and that he must have been insane when he delivered the fatal razor slash. His counsel is expected to rely in a large measure on the tes- timony of Dr. C. J. Hart of New Britain, who attended the slaver after he was hrought to the hospital. and who declared him to be a paranoiac. Whether the state will dispute that opinfon will depend on the results of the investigation now being conducted on Attorney Alcorn’s arders There is a possibility that ' the state’s attornev will not call the case at the December term. permitting it to go over until March to permit of a more complete investigation and to allow .observation of the nrisoner. Couldn’t Pay Fine. John Hurley, a transient. was talk- en to jail today by Constable Corneli- us Downing to work out a fine of $5 and the costs of prosecution imposed this morning by Justice E. P. Prior before whom he was arraigned on the charge of intoxication. The ac- cused was without funds. Hurley was arrested vesterday af- ternoon by Officer Downing. The man came to town by trolley from New Britain. He was in an intoxicated condition at the time of his arrival and the officer was unable to get him to leave. The man created a dis- turbance around the center and was finally locked up. Candidate Wanted. Wanted—A democrat to serve on the town school committee, An advertisement of this character is being considered by Rev. R. H. Burton and Rev. H. T. Walsh to whom has heen accorded the privilege of selecting a new member of the school board to fill the vacancy which has existed since John E. Garrity re- signed a few weeks ago. The men report that they have thus far been unable to secure anyone to take the place although they feel they have made a fairly thorough canvass of eligibles. The office does not appear to be in very great demand. Men who have been approached regarding their ap- pointment have turned it down and the hoard remains unorganized for the vear pending the appearance of a satisfactory candidate. Chairman Burton said today that he had expected an appointment would be made this week but was disap- pointed. Tt is said that A. T. Rogers, secre- tary and financial agent, is anxious to give up the statistical features of this work, although he is to continue a member of the board. and the com- mittee is understood to be seeking a man who will handle the secretarial end of the business.

Women folks as well as men are now using Minard’s g Liniment to relieve pain in- stantly. This time tried\ physician’s prescription is all that is ever needed to give quick relief. It is a won- derfully soothing, creamy liniment that does not stain or blister and is positively pure, clean and easy to use. Ask your drug- gist or your neighbor, for Minard’s has bcen used in many homes for more than sixty years as the one dependable liniment for pain of all kinds. their work on the grand list and pro- vide sufficient information to permit of an intelligent discussion of the question of taxation, the belief is gen- erally held that when the voters meet in January they will decide to increase the rate paid by property owners to at least sixteen mills. The appropriation of $1,250 for the purchase of voting machines and the allowance which will be required to pay for the nightly policing of streets will increase the town’s expenses to an extent that an additional mill will not suffice unless there is a substantial in- crease in the grand list. Except for the two items above noted the officials do not anticipate any extraordinary expenses during the vear. Although the selectmen ad- here rigidly to the practice of economy it is not expected that the business of the town can be carried on without increasing its debt unless the higher rate of taxation is approved. Property owners in many cases have put an increase on the selling price of their holdings because of prosper- ous times and the prospects of Plain- ville’s growth. The assessors have not indicated that they will figure a gen- eral raise in the grand list, however, and the general expectations seem to be that except in cases where new buildings have been erected or the property otherwise improved, the val- uation of places subject to taxation will not be materially changed. Sues for $6,000. L. B. Snyder of Bristol has been made defendant in a suit for $6,000 damages brought by Charles R. Carl- son of this place through Attorney James T. Mather. The action is an at- tempt to recover double or treble damages for the loss which the plain- tiff sustained when thhe plaintiff was injured and his horse killed by Sny- der’s automobile. The accident oc- curred in Bristol a few weeks ago. Carlson claims that the defendant was responsible for the accident. Sny- der disagrees and has retained Attor- ney Newell Jennings and Judge W. J. Malone to defend him. The suit is made returnable before the December term of the superior i court. Two in Hospital.

WHITE HOUSE CHINA Ware From Tables of All Presidents Except Two Placed in Special Room by Mrs, Wilson, Washington, Nov. 24.—The famous White House collection of china, con- taining specimens from the table ser- vice of all the presidents except two, has been placed in a room specially prepared for it, under the supervision of Mrs, Wilson in the executive man- sion. It is Mrs. Wilson’s intention to increase the collection if possible and the specimens have been so placed iy cabinets as to leave room for ex- pansion. The new room was prepared while the President and his family were at Shadow Lawn for the summer, Before leaving for Shadow Lawn Mrs. Wilson went over plans for the change with Mrs, Abby Gunn Baker, in charge of the collection, and in- structed her to select some of the pieces of old china, glass and plate, which were stared in White House closets, and place them in the new cabinet. While the collection, which Mrs, Baker has been building up for several years, included pleces from every president except two, some ad- ministrations are represented inade- quately, and she is continuing her work in the hope of making it really representative, Eventually the walls of the room are to be lined with cabinets for the callection, but at present only the first line has been put in. It extends the entire length of the room and is in harmony with the architecture of the White House interior, modeled after the Georglan perfod. The woodwork is of ivory white, lined with handsome velvet, which gives a perfect background far the china as well as for the silver and glass. The furniture of the room is a part of the set, used in the East room during the administration of President McKinley, and is upholstered In bro- caded satin of a light yellow tint, Mrs, Baker made a search of the historic ware already in House, and placed in the central sec- tion of the nmew cabinet some of the oldest pleces of silver and glass In the mansion.
