Consuela Drago plaved the matron, Mrs. White, who had charge of the cooking, and a real meal was served, too. “The First Thanksgiving” followed true to historical lines. It depicted the scen® in Governor Bradford's home at Plymouth in 1621 when the now customary Thanksgiving day 1is celebrated. The governor, after con- sultation with Elder Brewster, invit- ed all the men and women of the lit- tle colony to offer thanksgiving for the fruits of the year. The Indians, too, came along, among whom were Mas- sasoit, portrayed last night by Ernest Strom, and Samoset, by Robert Strom. There was a typical war dance thrown in for good measure by the “injuns.” Howard Eichstadt played the part of Captain Miles Standish. Others in the cast were Lillian ¥dman, Gordon Ellms, Carl Person, William Dorsey, Marjorie Nelson,® Marguerite Ren- shaw, Francis Volt, Alice Nero, Con- stance Taylor. Other numbers on the evening’s program were a baritone solo by Ar- thur Olson, readings by Mi Sylvia Alex and a talk on “Gathering the News” by John J. Daly, editor of the Herald. Mayor Quigley was a guest of the evening. NEW BRITAIN TO THE RESCUE. Local Fire Apparatus Saves Buildings In Beckley Quarter. Chief Robert M. Dame and men of Engine Co.

FRANTIG INVESTORS | HAVE GENIUS HELD Youth With Secret Dye Formula Arrested for Theit New York, Nov. 25.—Henry Clay Arbutle, 19 years old, who holds the secret upon which the prospects of the International Dye company of Milwaukee hang, was arrested last night in front of the Hotel Knicker- bocker, Forty-second street and Proadway. The police of the coun- try had been looking fo rhim since last Saturday, when he disappeared from Milwaukee, taking with him the formulas and the hopes of the dve corporation, which planned to manu- tacture dyes as good as those made in Germany. They are his own for- mulas, and he was locked up at Po- lice Headquarters, charged specifically with the theft of platinum and chem- icals worth $10,000, which he had been using in his experimental work in Milwaukee. Dispatches from Milwaukee last night said it wasn't the platinum and it wasn’t Arbutle that William Oester- reich, president of the International Dye Company wanted so much to get back as the secret on the basis of which he had formed the dye cor- poration. Arbutle was getting $10,- 500 a year, and had a promise of big honuses if the dye corporation made money. Little is known in Milwaukee of the voung genius, except that several months ago he went from bhusiness man to business man trying to inter- them in a dye process by which Sage-Allen & Lo, HAR [[FORD Unpacked Friday Afternoon - 1,000 New Up-to-the-Minute “PRINTZESS COATS” ALL GROUPED AT ONE PRICE 8$25.00 FORMERLY “WHAT'S IN Printz Blederman Co. of Clevela: manufacturers of women's apparel SOLD AS HIGH AS $45.00 A NAME” nd, Ohio, the largest operators and in the United States—makers of the standard “Printzess”’ Coats of which we have the exclusive agency in Hartford. s0ld at standard prices.

The arrest last night was made by Detectives Laukman and Gorevan of the first branch detective bureau, who picked up Arbutle on a description sent to New York police department by Chief Janssen of Milwaukee. This description said that Arbutle was six feet one inch in height, very slim, and had big feet. The detectives said after the arrest that Arbutle told them he had left Milwaukee because he wished to de- velop his dye secret alone. They said be told them he left Milwaukee in bis automobile at noon on Saturday oing to Chicago. Arbutle was quot- ed as saying that after he had a sicash in his auto, he sold the ma- chine, and left Chicago for New York on the Twentieth Century Limited on Tuesday, arriving here the next day. The detectives said they went with Arbutle last night to 222 Madison avenue, where he had a furnished room. There, they said, they found piatinum and gold worth $6,000. There we. fifty small pieces of the precious metal, they said, a number of platinum cups, a coil of platinum wire, and several sheets of the metal. There was also a sheet of 24-karat gold. A quantity of chemicals was so found in the room, including a six-ounce bottle of gold sodium, said tr» be worth $75, and a one-half-ounce hottle of gold chloride, said to be worth $20. The police said that Ar- bvtle had three $100 bills and eight $1 bills, and a check for $1,464.64, made payable to ‘“Martin A. Hen- dricks,” drawn on the Market and he said dyes could be made as good as any in the world and at a low cost. Finally he interested Mr. Oesterreich and several others and the dyve con- cern was organized.
