Quick and active investigation upon the part of Prosecutor Charles F. Lewis has resulted in the rounding up of a gang of juvenile offenders who have made life decidedly undesirable for dusiness men in this town Ar- thnth of sevaral youths were made this, morning and they will be heard in police court tonight. The prosecu- tor did not divulge their names be- cause of their youth and the possi- bility that some of them may prove fnnoeent when brought before the court. The cause of their arrests was the attempted robbery of the Cassallina store, In what was formerly the old White saloon, on New Britain avenue last Saturday night. J. Cassallina, husband of Rose Cassallina in whose name the store and property is listed, was in the rear of the store late Sat- drday night when he was attracted by the noise being made by some instru- ment at the front door. Without making any attempt whatever at catching the would-be burglars at work, Cassallina raiped a shotgun to his shoulder and fired. The load of buckshot shattered the plate glass window in the front of, the store and did other damage to the bullding it- melf. The authorities were at once notified and Mr. Lewis with Con- stable Orville Ventres put off in pursuit of an automobile which was opeeding toward Meriden. The car cludgd the pursuers and thq local men ¢ thought that the incident was one éf the many in which the law- breakers elude the clutches of the police. Sunday and yesterday Mr. Lewis was busy following up clues he had recelved from persons interested. He was rewarded In getting something on a young Berlin boy who is known as the ringloader of a gang In the tewn. The youth had no alibl and his parents admitted that he was not home on Saturday evening or later in the night. A trip to the home yosterday revealed the information that the boy was in bed. Mr. Lewis asked for permission to talk with Women Made Young Bright eyes, a clear skin and a body full of youth and health may be rs if you will keep your system order Hy regularly taking GOLD MEDAL CADSULES Q e worid's standard remedy for kidney, Biver, bladder and uric acid troubles, the @oemies of life and looks.

He asked the boy if he was sick and the reply was in the negative Questioning revealed the fact that the boy's shoulder was full of shot and he was suffering from several abrasions on the face, caused also by a portion of the discharge from the gun Mr. Lewis asked him if he was at the store and the boy ad- mitted it. A large number of cigar- ettes and other articles were taken at a previous break and the young fellow admitted his part in that escapade also. Prosecutor Lewis ordered the boy removed immediately from the home | and sent him to New Britain to be| cared for by medical treatment, fear- ing that poisoning might have re- sulted. The confessed burglar implicated others of his gang and the entire membership will be before the court tonight to explain several breaks in Berlin stores during the past few weeks. Although only youngsters, the members of the gang evidently were making good at their profession as the breaks heretofore perpetrated were successful. The Cassallina store was entered only about a week ago and the cigarettes and other goods stolen. A large quantity of merchandise was packed in a bag while the proprietor slept peacefully in the back room only a few feet from where the work was going on. ‘The leader of the gang denied steal- ing the amount the owner states was taken from the place In the arrest of the ringleader and believe they use of a lot of gang, the authorities have uncovered the trouble in Berlin and Kensington during the past year. Tools of a burglar varieety were known to be in possession of the persons making the breaks, and the prosecutor has learned that such implements were in the possession of the gang. Al- though rather young in age, in the art of pilfering the boys seemed more than adept. Five Motorists Arrested. One of the state police motorcycle division stopped at the town hall this morning and reported the usual grist of men who were unfortunate enough to be hailed for infraction of motor vehicle laws. The state officer had a total of five arrests to report within the district of Berlin proper and ask- ed for an assignment of trial for all accused. Prosecutor C. F. Lewis nam- ed tomorrow night for the court ses- sion and the men will appear before Judge Griswald at 8 o’clock. Finance Committee Meets. The finance committeo will meet in the town hall this evening at § o'clock for the purpose of hearing from var- ious branches of the town government in regard to preparing the budget for the fiscal year. The work of this committeo is es- pecially important this year inasmuch as the new state law in regard to such committee gives tho members almost too mach power. vThe finance com- mittee is left wholly in charge of making appropriation for the various town departments. Their word is final and even a town meeting of citizens gathered in protest cannot raise or lowen their estimates even $100. Then too, the committeo has been given tho power of naming the tax to be laid on the grand list to cover the ex- penses for the year. Picrpont-McKeon Wedding Miss Elizabeth McKeon and Frank J. Pierpont will be married tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock at St. Paul's church. A nuptial high mass will ie sung by the pastor, Rev J. C.

At the republican caucus held the town hall last night, a consider- able change was seen in the force of constables. The voters evidently had their opinions ¢f what and where t nge should be made and it w. followed out. As a result, there will be three constables out of office when the October election ia over, and new ones will be seen in their place. This, however, was practically the only change made on the present ticket and all other office holders were re-ap- pointed. The constables dropped from the force through the caucus last night are, Marino, Davids and Ander- son. All three of these men have seen some rears of service on the local force. The following is the results of the loting last night: for town clerk. Robert C. Usher; first selectman, Wil- liam J. Johnson; second selectman, Charles H. Calor; town treasurer, Charles W. Hird; ta: collector, Wil- liam J. Hemmenwa assessor, O. H. Robertson; constables, George E. Shu- bert, Charles Klatt, . W. Furrey and D. E. Emery; grand jurors, S. S. Gwil- lim and S. P. Williams: registrar of voters, Joseph N. McKernan; board of relief Joseph N. McKernan; auditor, F. L. Benzon:; school board, Edwin H. Hills and member library board, Mrs. Henry Trumbull. There were about 50 attending the caucus last night ang but few women put in an appearance much to the dis- appointment of many who had pre- dicted a good attendance o' them. Mrs. Trumbull is the first woman of Plainville to hold a local office and her nomination to the position was re- ceived unanimously. This will make about 45 veara in the service of town clerk for Robert Usher and William J. Johnson will be rounding out his ninth term as selectman. Mr. Calor has al- so been on the board ror several years. Charles W. ""ird haa served in tho office as town treasurer for more than 15 years and is one of the best the town has ever had. Mr. Hemmenway has been tax collector for a long time and has been backed by both partiea with no opposition. The nomination of D. E. Emery and Charles Klatt to the constable force makes these men new to their duties. Both 'are’well known locally and will undoubtedly serve in their capaci*y to the best of their ability. E. W. Furrey and George Shubert have been on the force for several years and aro well ac- quainted with the duties required. The grand jurors, registrar of voters and auditor are experienced office holders. At tho meeting last night, Stanley S. Gwillim acted as chatrman. Prizes at Fair.
