Klett today in polica court. He waa bound over to the next term, of the superior court, opening at Hartford on the third Tuesday in September. Bonds wera, fixed at $1,000. Purchased Two Rings. H. M. Himberg of the firm of Him- berg & Horn told of selling the two rings to the accused Juno 26. Koss asked if a $875 check, drawn on the City Bank and Trust company of Hartford, would be acceptable as part payment on the bill of §77. The order was drawn in favor of Howard George and signed by Ziotas Brothers of Col- linsville. The accused represented himself as George,’an employe of the Collinsville firm. Himberg communi- cated with the bank and found that the Ziotas Brothers’ account was good. The check was accepted. Koss wrote a fictitious name, that of How- ard George of Columbia street, Hart- ford, on a piece of paper, and gave it to the jeweler. Burglary Reported. When the check was offered for credit at the Hartford banking house, it was found to be worthless. Ziotas Brothers reported to Sergeant A. J. Richardson that their place of busi- ness had been broken into and, in addition to $75 in cash, three blank checks were taken. The number on the check presented to the local jew- eler corresponded with the stub of a missing check. Questioning by Sergeant Richard- son brought an explanation from Koss that the check was in payment for services rerdered the Ziotas firm. Confronted by Harry Ziotas, the ac- cused altered his story. He then ex- plained that he had cashed the order for a man whom he did not know. Realizing that he would be unable to find the man, he said, he thought it would save trouble by representing himself as George. At the time of his arrest the accused had another check for $100 on his person. , This one, he-said, he found on Main street, but he destroyed it when he found it to be of no value. Arson Case Continued. Following an investigation of sev- eral weeks duration Samuel and Mary Parenti, owners of a dwelling at 364 North Burritt street, were summoned to court yesterday to answer a charge of arson. 'The place was burned some time ago under what the police and fire departments considered, suspicious circumstances. Lawyer Elias T. Ring- rose has been retained by the accused. At his request the matter was con- tinued until Monday morning. Bonds were fixed at $500 in each case. Frank Daddario was arrested last night by Patrolman Patrick O'Mara on a charge of assaulting his brother Vittorio. At the request of Lawyer Ringrose, the case was continued un- til tomorrcw morning. It is alleged that the accused, following an alter- cation with his brother last Saturday night, drew a knife and slashed him. 2 Carnival Man Arrested.

TIME MAKES CHANGES Famous Old Frog Pond on Exclusive Beacon Hill is Now Kiddies Wad- ing Pool. Boson, July 14.—The frog pond on Boston Common celebrated in his- tory and long an ornamental oasis in the environment of Beacon H:ll, has become a ' wading pool. The, children of the tenements in the ad- joining districts of the west end now find under foot a concrete floor in- stead of the ooze of a muddy bot- tom that formerly trickle pleasingly between their toes. Instead of slipping slyly into the water and slipping out again when a policeman appears, the waders now have public attendants who look out for their ‘safety. For years rthe frog pond has been a gathering place of children. Men of present prominence in the city recall the days. when, as sons of the wealthy families that former- ly occupied Beacon Hill exciusively, they sailed toy boats there or played along its shores. Some of these men were instrumental in increasing the frog pond's usefulness as a wading pool. etc., etc. Women’s Sport Oxfords, brown and black trimmed Women’s Nubuck Sport Oxfords, brown and black trimmed $8.50 Women’s Sport Strap Pumps, brown trimmed Women’s White Canvas Pumps ............

[2) LONE “ADAM” RUBE MEETS “EVES” OF CITY Tracy Gillls, Taken By Father Wilds As Actress Mother Left Them, Sees Life Anew. Omaha, July 14.—Tracy Gillis, vears old, has just let his eyes first fall on a woman. He has also had his first remembered view of a rail- road train, a street car, a daily paper and fiction magazine. Upon seeing a woman for the first time, Gillis visited a barber shop and had his lonz hair cut and his face shaved. Gillis was born in Chicago. His mother was an actress and his father a disciple of Moody and Sanky. But for a third of a century father and son- have lived alone on a western Nebraska ranch, forty miles from a railroad, with no stranger stepping within its fence posts. George Gillis, the father, died re- cently, two years short of four score and ten. Tracey, the son, buried the body on the ranch and went on with his farm work. Today he came to Omaha on his pioneer journey with a load of cattle.. According to his story the elder Gillis trafficked with his neighbor- ing farmers only on their propert and never on his own for fear his son’s ears should pick up hints of worldly civilization. The father fled to the west with his son to save him from the dancing, singing actresses in Chicago’s old Haymarket theater. A few weeks earlier the boy's mother, whose name was Maggie Isles, had deserted her husband and gone with another man to the Twin Cities. Gillis himself at about the same time had proclaimed himself a conv in a Moody and Sankey prayer meeting. ) devil lurks on every street cor- ner father taught me.” Tracy Giliis said today. “He told me the sal story of my mother and warned me te avoid all sinful men.” GREEKS AND TURKS IN GREAT BATTLE 33 Combat Rages Before Kutaia, With Airp'anes Playing Prominent Part in Action Constantinople, July 14.
