JAnnual Minstrel Show of the Ladies = .'n’ns Evening—Death of Miss Isa- 4; dora Aurclin Kelsey of East Ber- lin—Briefs. The three youngest children of Frank Jumbola of Kensington were committed to the County Home at ¢ NVarehouse Point this morning by Yudge George G. Griswold. An in- Vestigation has been made by both the local adthorities and the State Humane society the same decision be- kg reached by poth parties as to the disposition of the children. Accord- ing to the statement of the father, the children have been motherless rince last July when their mother < left town. It was the wish of the father as well as the authorities that the children be placed somewhere so «ghat they could be given proper care mrnd recelve an education. There are #ix children in the family the oldest being 14, and the youngest six and it has been the duty of the older girl to care for the others since the {:mther disappeared. But the num- ers being too large for such small hands the children became a little unmanageable and to cap the climax they would not attend school. The father works at the power station and is only home at night so he was of little aid outside of the financial sup- port of the family. The children sent to the home are: Raffael aged Antoinette aged nine and Alvira aged ten. They were commited = to the home until the girls are sixteen years of age and the boy eighteen. Unless in the meantime -some one should care to take one or more of the children and give them a home. Minstrel Show Tonight.

Local police authorities belleve they have located the *“meanest man” in the person of George Howard, a tramp. who was arrested yesterday morning for bombarding the home of Alfred Anderson near White Oak with stones, after he had been refused his Yreakfast. Not content with having broken the windows of Mr. Ander- son’s home and endangering the lives of two babies who were asleep in cribs in one of the rooms into which he | hurled missles, Howard called the | court officicals all the vile names in his repertoire, hurled a broken bottle at Constable Marino, insulted passen- gers on the train on which he was taken to Hartford, and finally refused | to walk from the depot to jail, forcing the officer who accompanied him to hire a carriage for his convenience. Witnesses testified in court last evening when Howard was arraigned that the man had done considerable damage at the Anderson home and showed himsclf to be one of the most viclous hoboes to honor Plainville with a visit in a long time. He was Fitzgerald, F. McMurray, G. Hull and W. Rice, and the “Never Will Be's”: | M. Josephsgn, 'E. McMurray, Thompson and J. Delowrey. Sent to Hospital, Andrew Harrison Jackson, an old veteran, also a former resident of ! the Town of Berlin was yesterday | taken to the Hartford hospital by the | selectman.
