Rogers to Serve As Chairman NEW MEMBER IS SECRETARY School Board Also Appoints Teachers’ Committee—Grand Jury Returns Murder Indictment Against Salerno —Typhoid situation Unchanged. Frank G. Osborne was chosen the new member of the town school com- succeeding John E. Garrity, who resigned recently, at the Decem- ber meeting of the board held last eve- ning 1in the library room in the Town hall. Mr. Osborne was the cholice of the democratic members, Mr. Garrity having been a representative of their party, and his selection was agreeablp to their republican associates. Organization was also effected at the session, the board selecting Alvin L. Rogers for chairman in place of Rev. R. H. Burton, who announced his desire to be relieved of the duties of the position. Mry. Burton explained that he didn't have the time which the office required and he would pre- fer to have some other member take the chairmanship. Mr. Osborne was selected for secretary and financial agent, a position formerly held by Mr. Rogers. Rev. H. T. Walsh was again named for acting school agent with L. S. Mills as his assistant. It was voted to have the chairman, secretary and Mr. Mills serve as a teachers' com- mittee. The board agreed to have the Christmas vacation begin at the close of school on Friday, December 22 S- sions to be resumed on Tuesday, Jan- uary 2. No action was taken regard- ing the filling of the vacancy in the teaching force caused by the recent resignation of Miss Brooks. Mrs. Harold L. Newell is temporarily fill- ing the position and will probably re- main in charge of the grade atleast until the end of the fall term. The organizing of the board was red until now because of the in- ¢ of the democratic members to secure a successor to Mr. Garrity. Tt was understood that the new member was to serve as secretary and flnan- clal agent, Mr. Rogers, having ex- pressed a wish to retire from that mittee, The property is | | ‘ | | | | | been visiting relatives in East Berlin | \ j cil has become, through its numerous | and | berth.

Returning an indictment of murder in the first degree, the grand jury at its session yesterday afternoon for- mally placed responsibility for the Kkilling of Mrs. Joseph Salerno on her husband, who has been under arrest nce his release from the hospital, where he was taken for treatment fol- lowing his efforts to commit suicide. The action of the grand jury was ex- pected as their was no effort made by Salerno or his friends to show that he W not to blame for the crime. Not a scrap of new evidence was brought out before the eighteen men called upon to serve on the jury. The witnesses could aseribe no motive for the killing, the only information in their possession being the fact that the woman died from a razor wound inflicted in her throat and that her husband subsequently admitted that he had slain her. Salerno was in the court room yes- terday but did not take advantage of is legal right to question any of the witnesses. In connection with the hearing State's Attorney Alcorn told Judge Webb that the murderer was without means and could not employ counsel. Attorney B. M. Holden had been in consultation with him since he was brought to jail and the court appoint- ed him to serve as his lawyer. State's Attorney Alcorn intimated vesterday that the case will be dls- posed &f at the present term of the superfor court. Salerno’s defense will be insanity. As he seemingly is nor- mal mentally at the present time, it is not thousht likely that a commis- ston will be asked for to examine him. Typhoid Situation Unchanged. Plainville’'s typhoid fever epidemic remained unchanged today, according to the report of Health Officer J. N. | Bull.

NELSON, NO. 83 LEDGE COURT, STRONGLY ENDORSES LAX-A-TONE. A chain is only as strong as the weakest link, said Mr. Martin, the Lax-a-Tone expert at the HEconomy New Bngland Drug Co., and if that weakest link happens to be the stom- | ach all the other links are seriously atfected. Many times you hear a man say, Oh, I just feel fine until my stomach gots out of order and then I am sick all over. The human stom- ach 18 to the system what the boller ! is to the engine. Let that stomach get out of order and the system has no energy to supply it with force in the way of rich blood.

In justice to Lyman H. Burt, Dr. Black has stated that the evidence gathered by the authorities has not shown conclusively that the disease was contracted from milk sold by him. At least there is no information vet obtained to prove that he had de- livered contaminated milk. gestlon of Dr. Black and Health Of- cer Bull that he discontinue deliver- ing temporarily was simply mads as a precaution, while the investigation is in progress. Mr. Burt expressed a willingness to do this and both physi- clans have readily shown an appr clation of his co-operation in their ef- forts to stamp out the disease. The condltlon of Lloyd Bdwards, one of the victims of the epldemic, was reported today to be very critical. Mary Pettinato is also ill. The other patients are reported to be very sick but in all cases it will be several davs before the doctors will be able to tell the probable out- come.

A case of scarlet fever in the Green family on Bicycle street was reported to Health Officer Bull yesterday and the house in which the patient lives was placed under quarantine. The patient’s condition is not garded as very serious. Sent to State Farm. Charles Kingsbury of this place, was sentenced to the state farm for inebriates by Judge Webb in the su- perior court yesterday. Kingsbury had been bound over from Plainville as a common drunkard. When first arraigned in' Hartford he entered a plea of not guilty but changed his mind after counsel had been appoint- ed for him. Kingsbury has been in court here on a number of ‘occasions. Burdette Elliott of New Britain, charged with committing an indecent assault in Plainville, pleaded guilty and will probably be sentenced late today. re- Basketball Tonight.
