Although he had been ordered by his employer, Thomas McMahon of Maplecroft farm, to deliver 15 bushels of apples at the grocery store of Sam- wel Berkowitz at 648 Main street, John Raponotti found it a difficult task this afternoon and had to seek advice of Chief of Police William J. Rawlings and Detective Sergeant Samuel Bamforth. He felt like being between the evil one and the deep sea because Berkowitz refused to ac- cept them and, over the telephone, McMahon insisted that they be left, even if it was necessary to dump them on the sidewalk. Raponotti was instructed by the police, to leave them, as directed by his employer. Last accounts from the scene wa that a lively argument was in evi- dence. In response to a call for aid, a policeman was sent to the scene ¥with orders not to take sides but pre- vent the peace from leing It was while receiving advice that Raponotti learned that his father, Michael Raponotti of 127 Wilcox street is at the New Britain General hospital a result of being struck by an automobile yesterday. as CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1916. LAWYER SUED ON EVE OF WEDDING School Teacher Wants $100,000 to Mend Jilied Heart New York, Nov. 29.—Edward M. Applegate, a young lawyer of Pas- saic, who today is to marry Miss Clementine H, Rust, participant in a $700,000 estate, was notified formally vesterday that he is the defendant in | an on for $100,000 in which breach of promise is alleged. Miss Bessie M. Coulthard, a teach- er in the public schools of Ruther- ford, is the complainant. She lives in Passaic, but was not at home yes- terday nor last night, and no one would add any information to the brief specifications in the complaint, a copy of which was served upon Mr. Applegate. In the complaint Miss Coulthard stated that on August 21, 1912, Mr. Applegate had promised to marry her and that since then he had put her off from. time to time, saying his financial circumstances did not war- rant a marriage. She proceeded with her preparations, however, the com- plaint states, and was ready and will- ing to become his bride at any time, “and is still ready and willing, but understands that he is about to take another woman as his wife.” Mr, Applegate is attached to the law offices of Rust & Corbin, in Pas- saic, the senior member of which is the brother of the young woman he is to marry today and manager of the Rust estate, valued at $700,000. Miss Rust is an equal heir with her brother in the estate and it is esti- mated that her fortune is more than a quarter of a million dollars. Mr. Rust also is the owner of the Passaic ac: ems that this is rather a late day to come into court with such an action,” said Mr. Rust last night. “We heard all about Miss Coulthard and you may state that the wedding of my sister and Mr, Applegate will be performed according to the announce- ments sent out. The suit will be fought, if indeed it is prosecuted any further than it has gone.” Miss Rust w. not available for in- terviewers last night, but at her home, No. 115 Gregory avenue, Passaic, where the wedding is to be, it was said the legal action was not a great shock to her and that she seemed to be as happy as usual. Both Miss Rust and Mr. Applegate have been prominent in the society af- falrs of Passaic. Both are members of the more exclusive organizations and their friends for a long time had understood they were engaged. None so far as learned, had heard of Miss Coulthard. Mr, Applegate was in his office when a deputy sheriff served the no- tice of complaint upon him. He re- fused to make any statement. The action is to be tried in the Supreme Court at Paterson at the next term. REPLIES 10 O'LEARY McCormick Says His Criticlsm of Truth Socicty Head Was Based on Feeling of Patriotism. New York, Nov. 29.—Vance C. Mc- Cormick entered his answer yesterday in the supreme court to the libel action recently brought by Jeremiah A. O'Leary in connection with state- ments by Mr. McCormick during the presidential campaign. The chairman of the democratic national committee mentions the tele- gram of Mr. O'Leary to President Wil- son in which he said that James B. Martine’s victory in the New Jersey primaries meant he would win the United States senatorship and that every vote for Mr., Martine would be “a vote against you.” Mr. O’Leary meant by the telegram, Mr. McCormick s , to say that the president of the United ates was guilty of disloyal acts in violation of the international laws of neutrality and that he permitted and approved of loans of money and sales of war munitions, and that the president of the United States was truckling to the British Empire.” The loans and sales were strictly in accordance with international law, the answer says, and Mr. O’'Leary, being an attorney, is presumed to have known it. Mr. McCormick says he re- garded the publication of the O'Leary telegram as an unpatrlotic act and, therefore, issued the statements on which the O'Leary action 1is based. What he said was in good faith, be- cause he believed the O'Leary criticism “was intended to injure Great Britain at the risk of injuring the United States.” D. PENFIELD CAMP.

NEURALGIC PAINS Shooting pains in the head with giddie ness, noise in the ears and tender= ness of the scalp—pains in the neck and shoulders or extending down the arms to the hands, these are the most com- mon symptoms of neuralgia. There are a number of causes of neu- ralgia. It is most common in families whose members have nervous disposi- tions and it is very often a result of an}e{mia or lack of blood. ot applications give temporary re- lief in nglll’nlgia anfl shouldpbe used. They cannot cure the trouble because the pain is the complaint that the un- der nourished nerve is making and it will not be quieted until the nerve is fed. The only way to reach the nerves with nourishment is through the blood. That is why thin blood so frequently leads to neuralgia. When the blood becomes thin the nerves lack nourish- ment. Build up the blood, supply to it the elements that the nerves need and you begin to correct the neuralgia. The free booklet ‘‘Diseases of the Nervous System’’ will interest you. ‘Write for it today to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.
