The money was kept in a trunk at his hoarding house and none but Pe and Michael were aware of the hidin place. During the seven years whi he has spent in this country he nev placed any money in a bank, he said. Money Missed May . On Mz Peter went to his trunk to add some money to the roll and was shocked to find the maney gone A book in which the Liberty bonds and war savings stamps had been kept was open, while two or three enve- lopes in which the securities had been placed were still in the trunk with Peter’s factory number thereon. The sh had been rolled in a shirt and had also been taken. He learned from the boarding mistr, that his brother had been to the house on that day so he immediately went to Mi- chael's home. Michael refused to d cuss the matter, and taking his hat left the house. His wife, however, agreed to allow Peter and a friend to search the house and after a few min- utes the third of the three envelopes with Peter's factory number was found in Michael's coat. Michael was then sought out and questioned but he merely laughed, while in the mean- time his wife proceeded to destroy the evidenc he envelope. Brothers Discuss Case. On the following day Peter reported the matter to the police, making known his suspicions, stating that his brother had been familiar with the place of hiding both when the money was in the trunk and previously when it s hidden beneath the motor of a grafonola. On July 12 Peter and Mi- chael met on Main street and in answer to the former's request that the money be turned over, Michael is quoted as having said “If you didn’t complain to the po- lice, I'd give you the money back.” Rather Lose Life Than Mone Cross-examined by Judge Ga % Peter said that for a time the money was left with Michael's wife for safe keeping but was taken from her when the brothers separated, following a disagreement. On a bet of $1 Mich- ael at one time opened the trunk in which the money was kept after it had been locked, Peter said, and on another occasion when refused a loan he shouted, “If you don't give me money the devil will take you and the money.” Asked why he cried when appealing to his brother to restore the funds, Peter said, “I would just as soon have him kill me as take my mone Girls Damaging Testimony. M Polyxa Muskowski, Peter's boarding mistress claims to have known Peter for several vears, hav- ing come to the States with him and has chosen him to hold one of her children at its christening. Michael came to her home on May 22 and act- ed tired. FHe went to Peter room and laid down while waiting for the return of another boarder, after he had inquired as to the keeping place of Peter's funds. The woman left for the store a few minutes later and left her daughter Helen, aged in the house. According to Helen's story, Michael took the grafonola apart and then went to the room where he was standing over the trunk with a key. Conversation in Cell Room. Stanley Rozanski, court interpreter, was placed in the cell room of the police station by Sergeant A. J. Richardson and was there when Peter was allowed in to talk to his brother. Unknown to either of the brothers, the interpreter was taking notes on their conversation. The following questions of Peter received no an- is not will be re to secure rest over a shame that you're in but don’t you know that you made my children orphans?" “Will you give me $1,000—I'll be satsified 2" “Who did you give the money to?” Mike answered the last question with one word—"Jerjeski.”” Peter inquired as to the amount given to that man and he was told—all. Defense Puts No Testimony On, Judge Gaffney declined to put any evidence for the defense but gued the absurdity of anyone leaving | such evidence as an envelope with a name of another in his pocket. He accused the plainfiff of having malice in his heart for his brother and being anxious to see him suffer.

MAN GETS FORMAL CITATION Frank Ligsukis Received Notice From Former Commander Mechanic Frank awarded the D. 8. ¢ eral Pershing, and ald at that time, has received an of- ial citation for his meritorious act from general headquarters, France. Ligsuki’s valor was of such high merit that Major Gen. Duncan ordered the citation ta be read to every company in the A F. at its first formation following receipt of the order. With machine guns popping from him from all sides and with shells ex ploding over his head, Mechanic Lig- sukis, together with a comrade, went into “No Man’s Land” an October 16 1918, and brought in eight of h “buddies” who were wounded and helpless. Though tired and worn out from marching, fatigue and fighting Ligsukis and his campanion courag- cously stuck to their task from 6 o'clock that evening until 7 o'clock the following morning rescuing their comrades. The citation follows: “On October 16, 1918, near Juvin, France, Mech. ——— to- gether with a comrade, voluntarily went into “No Man’s Land” and under heavy enemy fire, brought in eight wounded comrades, who were help- less and exposed to this fire. In or- der to perform this heroic act it was necessary for them to make several trips into ‘No Man’s Land.’ Courage and self sacrifice.” Ligsukis is a well lknown local Lithuanian. He is the son of Joseph Ligsukis of 37 Franklin street. He was drafted in September, 1917, and the following month was in the front line trenches in France battling against the Huns. He was as a mechanic with Co. I, 325th fantry. Ligsukis is now employed at the Hartford hospital.

According to the local candy deal- high prices plus the luxury fax have ance again brought the “all-day suckers” back into popularity. The fact that there is a shortage of sugar together with the high prices of ma- terial and labor, have caused the prices of good candies to soar high. At the recent convention of the retail confectioners, held in Cincinnati, it was learned that the public has once more come down to the use of the old plain cheap candies. The ban on booze is stimulating candy sales, and the service men acquired the candy habit, having been supplied with millians of pounds of candy by the United States govern- ment and private agencies. The local dealers report that the old style plain candies of the school store variet coming into their own assigned | in- | PERSONALS Miss Alice Clauson & Tullock Block Island, of Miner, spending two REST Read | | weeks at i | Mr. and Mrs. Frank Thompson are | spending a week at Rocktem cottage, | Highland Lake, Winsted. | A daughter was horn at the | pital yesterday to Mr. and Mr: A.
