That there usually are two sides to a story, is evident, especially concern- wg the case af Albert Cellino, arrest- ed Saturday on a charge of passing a worthless check to the Zaharra brothers, proprietors of the Palace of Sweets. The Zaharra brothers had the accused arrested on that charge, but at the hearing of the case last night, it appeared that they had become un- duly excited over the matter and the sudden turn of evidence proved them to be much mistaken in their charges. However, a charge of breach of the peace was held against Cellino. Jus- tice Edward P. Prior heard the case | while Attorney William J. Foran prosecuted. Evidence showed that Cellino had receved the check for service render- ed from a local bank. The check was perfectly good and as the banks were closed when received, he directed his | steps toward the Palace of Sweets. | Here he purchased some goods and tendered the check. It was accepted for $35. But in giving the check, Cel- lino failed to endorse it, and, as a matter of fact, it was refused money when presented in a New Britain bank. The same was refused in the ®lainville Trust company where they were advised to have it endorsed by Cellino, The Zaharra brothers were | ignorant regarding this method and immediately became excited and claimed the check was worthless. They took it to Cellino who laughed and taking it, went down to the bank and asked if it was good. He was told FOR THE REDUCTIONS MADE OF COURSE IS HAD BY PURPOSE OF OTHERS AS TO PRICE.

A large truck, belonging to the Cor- bin Trucking company of New Brit- ain, was stalled half way up Damon’'s Hill this morning next to the trolley tracks. There was no driver around to explain for the stalling of the truck.

C. DEMING, Chairman. Berlin, Connecticut, 14 Republican Republican Berlin caucus in The Town of meet in Dated at October 6, Gored By Bull. Frank Warner is at the Meriden hospital with a fractured right rib and a possible fracture of the right collar bone as the result of having been gored by a four-year-cld bull at Peck’'s farm in Kensington last even- ing. His condition this morning is reported as fairly comnfortable. He was brought to the hospital in the police ambulance, which broke down on Cook avenue on the way back to the Broad street fire house after the injured man had been left t the hospital. The machine was nally tgwed to the fire station by Electrician, Cook with his Ford run- | their Emma Hart Willard. Many have requested to know the history and life of Emma Hart Wil- lard, after which the local chapter D. A. R. has been named, also the High school branch of the Parents and Teachers' association. The fol- lowing data have been found from re- liable sources. It has been said that a pupil of Miss Porter’'s school in Farmington may be known by the way she en- ters the room. Xty or seventy years ago there was a class of young ladies in Berlin, of superior qualities of mind,. and of distinctive bearing, the latter the result of a course of train- ing at the Troy seminary, under Mrs. Emma Hart Willard Mrs. Willard was anxious that all girls in her circle of relatives, which was large, should have a chance to obtain an education, and she invited them to come to Troy at her own expense. Twelve of her Berlin relatives ac- cepted the offer. The popularity of Mrs. Willard's school was so great that pupils came from all over the United States, from Canada and even from the West In- dies. In 1838 she resigned her charge to her son and his wife, in order that she might go to Europe and travel and give more time to her literary labors. She died in Troy, April 15, 1870, at the age of eighty-three years. News Items. The regular meeting of the Berlin Grange society will be held in their hall this evening.
