NEW BRITAIN YOU OCAN DEPEND ON PU RCHASED OF US. Berlin News AUINTO’S GASE IS . AGAIN CONTINUED State Could Not Produce Birth “Certificate of Alleged Victim MUST BE -PRESENTED Registrars Post Notices in Post Offices "To Move to New York—Are We {{ Going to Have a Bridge? Ask the if Authorities. A new and unforseen development Jn the case of Louis Quinto of New Britain, accused of criminal, assault Db, Stella Witherell of this town, re- pulted in a further continuance this jmorning until Thursday afternoon at 2 o’clock in the Town ‘hall. This is the second time that the case has been adjourned inside of a Week. Dissension between Attorney Joseph G. Woods, counsel for the de- fendant, and Prosecutor W. H. Gibney caused the change in the schedule. Yite state asked the alleged victim how old she was and as the girl was mbout to answer, Lawyer Woods Yaised an objection. He thought that pome documentary evidence should be presented instead of a verbal dec- laration of her age. Continuing he psked that a certificate of her birth be produced as it was an important cas® and the right of the defendant must be taken into consideration. Court started at 9 o'clock, with Judge Griswold presiding, The wit- hesses for the state, Dr. Roger M. Griswold, Mary Witherell, Mrs. Nel- pon Souci and Fred Witherell, were all in attendance and sworn in. Dr. Griswold was the first man to be, called on the stand to testify. He adrhitted that he had made an exam- Ination of the girl and told the court the result of his examination after which he was excused. Mary Witherell, the alleged vic- tim, was the second called upon to offer evidence. She had only been msked several questions when the dis- pension arose between the defendant's laVyer and the state. When Attorney Woods insisted that a birth certificate be presented the state said ‘“‘that be- Ing the case the court will have to be adjourned.” Before adjournment, counsel for the defense was notified that his mac would also have to.answer to the cHarge of common assault on Mrs. Boucl at the next appearance. Prosecuting Attorney Gibney thought the case was of some importance thal bonds should be higher to insure the attendance of the accnsed Thursday afternoon. Judge Griswold did nct pgree, however, stating that the bon1s were high enough and would be left At 31,500, Registrars’ Notice. Notices have been left in the post- offices by the registrars of the town of ‘Berlin that they will be in session on, Friday, August 3. at the town clerk's office from 12 m, to 6 p. m. and from 6 p. m. at the store of Wil- liam Ritchie In Kensington.

John Ryan and family, who have lved in the town of Kensington for several years, will leave tomorrow for New York city where they will make their future residence.

He has accepted a position in an en- velope factory in New York. Yes; We Are Going to Have a Bridge. A Herald correspondent was ask- ed this morning by several prominent citizens of the town, both male and female. whether the new bridge over Hart's pond near the American Paper Goods company was to be erected this year or next. According to the best information available from the au- thorities, the town must await the pleasure of the highway commission- er. First Selectman W. I. Alling stated this morning that he had been to see Mr. Bennett several times but failed to find him. People everywhere can be found who wax indignant when the subject is mentioned. And citi- zens who reside on the other side of Hart's pond and who have to detour any where from one-half to two miles are up in arms. It is over a month since traffic on the road was held up and vet no action has been taken. Brict Items.

It was like water blisters, and began itching so that I could not stand it and I scratched until it became a sore eruption. My ankle was terribly inflamed and swollen ‘and I could not bear to have the bed- clothes touch it. ““Then I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and when I had used them about four weeks my ankle was healed.’’ (Signed) Mrs. Clara Hill, Box 35, East Burke, Vt., Sept. 30, 1916.

Neal's Wealth NET ESTATE TOTALS $65,000 Masonic Charitles Foundation Will Get Approximately $10,500 When Final Settlement Is Made—Rock- well-Drake Co. Plans Changed. Inheritance taxes amounting to $2,439 are to be paid to the state out of the estate of Frank S. Neal, ac- cording to the decision of Judge ! George R. Byington rendered in the probate court this morning. The tax allowance matter was ordered (o come up for consideration at a hear- ing this morning at 10 o’clock when the state tax commissioner was to have been permitted to oppose thc amount designated as Connecticut's share of Mr. Neals wealth. No ap- pearance was made, however, and the court approved the figures Arrangements for a final settlement of the estate are now to be made and within a few weeks a hearing for a general distribution of the dead mans money will be called. After all claims and fees were de- ducted Mr. Neal's estate was found to net $65,000. In his will the testator directed that in addition to the lega- cies given to relatives and friends, $1,000 should be given to the Church of Our Savior and a similar amount to the Church of Our Lady of Mercy. $7,000 was to be used by the execu- tors in the construction of a memo- rial chapel in the West cemetery and the residue to be paid to the Masonic Charities foundation. This charity will receive about $1G,500 from the estate. Following Mr. Neal's instructions all his property has beem converted into cash. As he directed that the legacies were to be free from inher- itance tax encumbrances the state's fee is to be deducted from the residue, which is approximately $13,000, be- fore the Masonic organization is paid. The inheritance tax is high because of the fact that none of the legatees were of nearer kin than cousins. The court made exempt from this tax the $7,000 allowed for the chapel and $500 which the law provides. After the estate is finally the Plainville Trust company, execu- tor under the will, will make plans for the construction of the cemetery building, which is to be known as the Neal Memorial chapel. Owing to the high cost of material and labor the bank officlals have delayed the con- struction of the building and it is not likely that the work will be started before next Spring. Ball Team to Disband. Because of the loss of plavers who have gone into the service of Uncle Sam and the probabilities of others joining the ranks when the draft gets in operation, members of the Forest- ers’ baseball team have decided to disband, and they will play their last game Sunday afternoon when the Adams Express company nine of Hartford will come here. The team made a great start early in the season and the outlook for their winning the championship of | this section looked bright. During the last two weeks ivhe absence of players who have enlisted has been felt and interest in the nine has les- sened considerably. Rather than keep an inferior team to represent the For- esters, the remaining members voted to quit after next Sunday. Marlin Co. Changes Plans. Suddenly changing its plans regard- ing the fate of subsidiary companies, the Marlin company of New Haven, which absorbed the Rockwell-Drake corporation some months ago, has de- cided to keep the business done at the local factory here for the time heing at least. It was originally plan- ned to move the busiress to Philadel- phia, where another large branch of the merger is located, leasing the Plainville plant to another concern. The deciston has since been changed, however, and the danger of losing the business immediately has | passed . The company is now preparing for the erection of additional buildings, | | plans for which were pigeon-holed, | | after the local company was taken over by the Marlin people. Orders | tor the structural iron to be used in the new plant have been placed and in a short time the construction will be- gin. It the intention to more than double the present working force of eighty men and until the additional floor space is available the plant will be operated on a twenty-four hour schedule. Prospects for a tremendous in- crease in business during the next year are regarded as very bright and the company expects that the large number of orders now on its books will be greatly augmented before winter. settled is Master List Here, A copy of the complete master list for the drafting of eligibles for military service is contained in the official bulletin now on file in the local post office where it may be examined by those interested The numbers are listed in the order in which they were drawn. Because of the fact that Plainville is but a part of a district it is impossible to de- | termine at present what quota the town will give to the new army This can be ascertained only after the ex- aminations are completed and claims for exemption are passed on. Should a Plainville man, whose number appears near the head of the BE PAID BY ESTATE | to enlist in any branch of the service list, fail to pass the physical examina- j tion or secure exemptions, four or five or perhaps even more men in some cases would be called from other towns in the district before another local registrant would be ordered to appear. The exemption board is working daily making up the list of names | i from the number report and it may take nearly the entire week before lsy are ready to send out notices to those who will be first order8d to ap- pear for examination. Uhtil the list is posted eligibles will be permittedy they choose. After they are ordered to report for ,examination they be- come a part of the new army to be assigned to whatever duty their super- fors may select. Not Disturbed by Heat. The excessive heat and humidity is having no effect on the enthusiasm of the Methodists at the camp grounds and the services yesterday and today were well attended. The little city in the woods is a fairly comfortable location in warm weather and the campers appear to have found and excellent refuge from the heat.
