Meskill in police court today to choose between a good stiff jail sentence or immediately going to work and turning oyer his pay en- velope- weekly to be used for the sup- port of wife and family, John Collins of 86 Grove strect accepted the latter, | although he vigorously objected to the | part making it mandatory that he turn over his pay to anyone but Mrs. Collins. “I suppose T'll have to, if it is a choice between that and jail” he com- mented resignedly when he was in- formed that is was certainly his only ¢hance to escape conflnement. .\ jail séntence of three months was im- posed with susnend,cd judgment and probation for'a month to_see how he behaves. Robust and healthy’ appear- ing, Collins showed a marked contrast to his wife, a frail looking woman clearly showing the effects of ,care. Prosecuting Attorney George W. Rlett, in presenting the case, said that the aversion of the accused to the word “work” and his fondness for alcohol- ics have caused his family to be in want many times and without the necessities of life. .Collins entered a plea of guilly to the charge of non- support. ' {11 feeling resulting from refusal to grant the loan of sufficient money to meet the price of a drink was alleged to have been the reason why Philip Hallinan of 47 'Winter street assauit- ed Henry Ruskiewicz of 222 High | street last night at Washington and Mrytle streets. They were staghng a lively 'pugilistic exhibition when Po- l liceman George W. Moffit came along oh his, way to headquarters to report ’for duty, Both were arrested and ar- | raigned’ on charges of mutual assault. i Ruskiewicz contended that he was isimply acting in self defense and had to defend himself. He was freed ; from the charges. Hallinan ‘was fined 1 $7 and costs after ' being severely ; Questioned by Judge Meskill relative ! to his working. | LOCATING THE PATIENTS ' “the plaintiff and Attorney M.

The milk station is doing a broad, effective work for~the babies of this city and is deserving of liberal sup- . port. & .t X i Main Strcet Before Making Calls at i !

Sergeant Brown was one of the most popular of the younger non-commissioned offi- cers and his untimely death, coming so suddenly after the encouraging re- port that his recovery was almost as- sured, hag cast a gioom over the sol- dier boys In the barracks Lieutenant Ashley J. Griffin, com= manding Comjany I, states that full military honors will be accorded Ser- geant Brown and unless his relatives al also here. Lieutenant Patterson, held in this city, with buri known by Griffin, a sister, living at | N. J., is the dead soldier's only sur- viving relative. She notified ves- terday that hers brother was failing rapidly and she is expected to arrive here today. Following, her arrival, Lieutenant Griffin will consult her re- gardinz the funeral arrangements, which will be announced later. First Death Among Soldiers. The death of Sergeant Brown is the first break to occur\in the ranks of either Company E or Company I since last fall. Sergeant Brown was a fot- mer regular army man and served an enlistment in Battery, D, Sixth United States Field Artillery. He was an poral. He was honorably discharged from the United States army service on March 10, 1915. He then took up his residence in this city and last June, when the troops were called to the border, he enlisted in Company E, He enlisted as a private on June 29 and served with the company through- out the encampment and maneuvers at Nogales and along the border.” On % AR * BRITAIN'.

Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin an Ideal Remedy for Con- stipation. ! i, . In every family thére is more or less occasion for a laxative remedy. It is to meet this need that Dr. Cald- *well’s Syrup Pepsin is prepared, -and ,that this combination of simple lax- ative herbs with pepsin fulfills its | purpose is proven by its place in !thousands of American homes. | Prof. F. J. C. Hertzog, the ,well kKnown linguist, 2341 North Orianna St., Philadelphia, Pa., wrote to Dr. ! Caldwell that he has used Dr. Cald- ‘well's Syrup; Pepsin in his household With excellent results and that he and his family consider it indeed a friend i1t need, and always keep a bottle otl it on hand. Constipation is the direct cause of much serious illness and is a condi- tion that should never be neglected, Harsh cathartics and violent purga- ,y tives should never be employed to re- ;.l_ie\'e‘ censtipation, because the very violehce of their action shocks the |entire system. A mild laxative, such ds Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far preferable, being mild and gentle in |1gs action. without griping or other i pain or discomfort; its freedom from all opiate -or narcotic drugs makes it an ideal remedy for children. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is sold in drug stores everywhere for fifty cents a bottle. To avold imitations and ineffective substitutes be sure to get Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup' Pepsin. See that a facsimile of Dr. Caldwell’s signa- ture and his portrait appear on the yellow carton in which the bottle is packed. ‘- A trial bottle, free of charge, can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 456 Washington St., Mon- ticello, Illinols. _ i his return to New Britain he was jofficer and on March 25 of the pres< ent year was made mess 'sergeant. \When/ the troops were mobilized ! more than a month ago Sergeant Brown reported at the armory with :his comrades, but a few days later | was taken ill with the grip and was {confined to his home on East Main {street. As his condition grew worse he was removed to the New Britain General hospital where he developed spinal meningitis. During the several weeks of his_illness, the voung sol- dier exhibited “remarkable strength and vitality and, e different occasions his case was giver‘ promoted to be a non-commissioned | up as hopeless, he rallied cach tim Several dafs ago - he was so much improved that he was permitted to have a few visitors and his recovery seemed assured. ‘He improved in spirits and talked constantly about re- joining his company at the armory. Yesterday his condition took a sudden change for the worst and his weak- ened system was unable to withstand another attack of the tergible disease. The end came shortly after 1 o'clock this morning.
