Strictly Enforced—To Make Voters urday—Mrs, Dorizio May Re- covor—-Bricfs, Town Clerk Usher this morning re- ceived a statement from Commission- cr of Domestic Animals Whittlesey to the effect that more stringent meas- ures are being resorted to in order to quell the epidemic of the infec- tious disease known as rables which has been prevalent in western Con- necticut since the first of January, 1917. It also stated that a general order has been issued which includes the several towns in Connetcicut westerly of the Connecticut river. According to the commissioner’s statement over 100 persons have been | bitten by rabid dogs since the first of the year, necessitating pasteur treatment. Three lives have heen lost by this disease besides the killing of a number of infected animals. In view of these facts it is evident that the quarantining and muzzling of all dogs in separate towns has not prevented the spread of the disease. For this reason more drastic action is being taken. Under the new order which has | been issued and will take effect Sep- dressy they -are particularly ited to come and inspect the very latest Fall Models of the “Madame Lyra" and “American Lady” Corsets, confined and sold exclusively by us in Hartford and vicinity.

Alling today received notification from State | ioner on Domestic Animals | Whittlesey, advising him that all dogs | n the town of Berlin, in common with | otyer towns west of the Connecticut | river, must be confined on the prem- owners, beginning at 6 turday, September This | 2 step, taken by the state de- | partment, is an extreme measure to | stamp out the prevailing epidemics of | bies. So stringent is the new ruling ! th@t any dog found wandering the * highways without a license marker or collar will be immediately captured by the dog warden znd shot. If a dog, that is wearing a collar and has been licensed, is captured, it will be kept in the local pound for 22 hours. If the owner does not appear to claim the animal in that time it will be des- patched. In order to obthin poss slonfof such a dog, how ever, the own-. er must pay a fee of $3. In order to | Bee that this new ruling, which does away with the muzzling of dogs, but | Insists that they be chained or other- wise confined to the owner's premis: Is observed the commissioner on do- mestic animals has appointed a num- | bep of special deputies whose duty it | be to visit the various towns af- fected and rcport back to the com- | missioner. There seems to be some question in | Berlin as to who will have to per- | form the duties of dog warden. George Griffin, who has herctofore held the | position of dog warden, resigned some \ time ago, but as yet his resignation has not been officially accepted and, | acaprding to First Selectman Alling, an attempt will be made to induce { him to continue actively in office un- kil the fall election. This new order concerning dogs will affect a large number of people ! In Berlin as, it is estimated, there are several hundred dogs owned in the thrge local districts and in almost evefy instance the animals have always been permitted to run free. Owners who care for their dogs must observe the order unless they wish to pay 2 fine or lose their pets entirely, the first selectman state: The rule flso provides that owners of dogs must have them on a leash if they Wwish to take them on the street.

Gris- wold for sentence. Her three alleged accomplices in the sensational dance which caused the state police to raid their exhibit at the fair last week, were also scheduled to appear in court this morning and they, too, will be sentenced later in the day. They are Gabriel Shaker, who blew the trumpet while the fair Vampire vamped and wriggled, one Peter George, who sold tickets giving the excited male spectators a chance to see Jennie May Curtis perform; Mar- tin MacDonald, who explained the various artistic poses and likewise the necessity of assessing the crowd an and Ross Crowley, whose senatorian tones inveigled them into buying the tickets. In addition to. the above named quartet, Judge Griswold was to make | the acquaintance of several other fol- lowers of the fair when he raps the | gavel for order this afternoon. Be- fore the fair closed Saturday night the state police and local constabu- lary raided at least five other resorts where gamblers were arrested. Among them is one Fred Barrett, said to be a gambler whi did not give his | patrons a chance. His wife, who con- | ducted a fortune telling establishment during the past week, visited several of the local officers and told them in no uncertain terms of her opinion of “hicks” and Berlin ‘“hicks” in particular. Man Killed by Train. Michael Sullivan of street, Hartford, was run train Saturday near the Styles & Re: nold’s Brickyard and received injur- jes from which he died at the New Britain hospital several hours later. As far as can be learned nobody saw the accident and the crew of the train which struck the young man knew nothing of the tragedy. The only information the authorities have is the ante mortum statement of the victim, who said he was walking along the tracks near the brickyard when train coming from behind struck him. The young man, who was 19 years old, suffered a fractured skull and his right arm was severed at the shoulder. His unconscious form was found laying beside sthe tracks by Charles Mich, a colored laborer who was returning to his home. The dead man was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Sullivan of Hartford and had been employed in New Bri- tain where he boarded on Chestnut strect. Besides his parents, the vic- tim is survived by four brothers: John of Newington; Patrick, of Hartford; Cornelius, of Elmwood: and Dennis of Springfield.

Scveral of the local constables, and other guards engaged to watch the grounds during the week were paid | off Saturday night, but not until there had been several arguments, one of the guards claiming that more money was due him and the paymaster as- serting that he was getting more than he was worth as he had been drunk most of the week. .

Jones of Worthington Ridge, also known to some of his more intimate friends as “Dynamite’” Jones, is ill at his home and expects to be taken to the hospital shortly for a more complete diagnosis of his ailment, Mr. Jones, who had a booth at the fair, was stricken ill on Tues- day and had three doctors attending him. Today his condition is much | improved. Mr. Jones had planned to | occupy a booth at the Rockville fair, | which opens tomorrow, but has been obliged to cancel his contract. Stole Drinks, Pay Penalty. Several young men about the town suffered considerably yvesterday as the result of an escapade in which they participated Saturday afternoon. ‘While one of their party engaged the attention of the dealer selling pine- apple syrup another made away with a pall of the drink and shortly ther after the entire party drank not wise- ly but too well. Acute indigestion and terrific pains in the region of their belts followed this onslaught. At least one doctor profited by the experiment. Berlin Items. First Selectinan W. I.

It advises that if an owner has a dog which is not registered, or if it is registered, but has no rcollar with { license tag atta and the owner wished to save its life, it would be best to sce the town clerk and get a dog tag.
