) POSTPONE TRIAL OF ALLEGED THIEF K;ikos Bagdasarian Prone to Take Advantage of Benefactress Charged with the theft of $400 from Mrs. Blanche Bielor of 132 Winter treet, Krikos Bagdasarian was ar- rajgned before Judge James T. Mes- Hill in police court today and held for & hearing tomorrow in bonds of $800. The continuance was requested by Judge B. F. Gaffney, who was called into the case shortly hefore court and had had no opportunity to become acquainted with the details. Bagdasarian has been in trouble bgfore with Mrs. Bielor as the com- plainant. Mrs. Bielor also came to his rescue. He was arraigned and fined $25 and costs, which was paid. Attorney A. A. Greenberg represented him. It is now alleged that he stole $400 from his benefactor’s trunk last June and left the city. Mrs. Bielor com- plained to the police July 12 and since then the authorities have been searching for the accused. A short time ago Detective Sergeant Samuel Bamforth received a letter from Captain of Detectives Patrick O'Day of Worcester, Mass., asking if & man, whose name sounded familiar and was spelled much the same as the one on a local warrant, was wanted by the local authorities on a theft charge. It resulted in the ar- rest of Krikos by the Worcester au- thorities. Sergeant Bamforth went after him yesterday, returning late last night. Judge Gaffney was reticent relative to the proposed defense, saving that he is unacquainted with the details of the case. He admitted that he had been approached by Mrs. Bielor rela- tive to it. Frank Boltaka and Jacob Schewski ®: 76 Grove street were fined $5 and «costs each for assault upon Alexander Gluski yesterday at the Grove street address. Gluski said that he had been invited to a party by one of the accused and was assaulted when he appeared. Boltaka and Schewskl contended that the complainant tried to enjoy the party without an jnvita- tion and they objected to such pro- @¥dure, They denled that they threat- ened to kill him.

People who are over-burdened with superfluous fat, know only too well the discomfort and ridicule that over- stout people have to bear. If you are carrying around five or ten pounds of unhealthy fat you are unnecessarily weakening your vital or- gans and are carrying a burden which destroys the beauty of your figure. There is no need of anyone suffering from superfluous fat. If you want to reduce your weight in a simple, safe and reliable way, without starvation, #.diet or tiresome exercise, here is a test worth trying. Spend as much time as you can in the open air, breathe deeply and get from any good drug- gist a box of oil of korein capsules; take one after each meal and one be- fore retiring at night. ‘Weigh yourself once a week so as to know just how fast you are losing weight and don’t leave off the treat- ment or even skip a single dose until you are down to normal. 0il of korein is absolutely harmless, is pleasant to take, and helps diges- tion. Even a few days treatment has been reported to show a noticeable re- duction in weight, footsteps become lighter, your work seems easier and a lighter and more buoyant feeling takes possession of your whole being. Every person who suffers from superfluous fat should give this treat- ment a trial. Clark & Brainerd Co. can supply you. 7 v NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FKIDAI, DCCEMDER I, 17ro. BUILDING REFLECTS PRESENT PROSPERITY 1916 Records Will Show Almost Halt As Much Again As Did Re- port of 1915. The wave of prosperity that has swept this section of the country dur- ing the past year is reflected no bet- ter anywhere than in the office of the building inspector where A. N. Ruth- erford’s report for the eight months from April 1 to December 1 shows that the total amount of building for which permits have been taken Is valued at $1,339,230. Wlien it is con- sidered that the amount for the twelve months of 1915 was only $1,176,880 it can readily be seen that with four months yet to go the present year’s bullding activity will probably be more than half as large again as the past year. During the three quarttrs of the fis- cal year now passed the new buildings will provide for thirty-nine new stores as against thirty-one new stores dur- ing the entire vear of 1915. The new tenements provided during the pres- ent year number 391 as against 446 during the twelve months of last year. Eleven buildings have been moved where but five were moved a year agn. Permits issued during the month of November totalled $147,280. The iten- ized report shows five brick buildings to cost $59,400; twenty-eight frame dwellings to cost $75,600; and twenty- one alterations and repairs to cost $12,250. HEAVY RAIN FALL. Totalled Tn One Week Almost Threc Inches, According to Records. According to records in the water department the rainfall during the past week, resulting from only two storms, totalled almost three inches. The rainfall yesterday amounted to 1.03 inches and during the last storm, a week ago yesterday, the fall meas- ured 1.81 inches. The rainfall is scientifically meas- ured by a special apparatus at Shut- tle Meadow lake. This apparatus is the kind prescribed and used by the United States government weather bu- reaus and is so constructed that it accurately gives the total fall on the level, regardless of the added depth in certain locations brought about by water sheds.
