Several cases of importance are scheduled for hearings bhefore Judge G. G. Griswold in the Town court this ‘week. Willlam Chapponi of New Brit- ain has been notified to appear in the court this evening to face a charge of manslaughter as the result of an acci- dent early yesterday morning in which Battista Compon, also of New Britain was killed. Champoni is out under bonds of $5,000. There is also a liquor case to be heard this evening. On Wednesday evening, Henry Sut- ton and Carl O. Bloomquist of Hart- ford, have been notified to appear be- fore Judge Griswold. The men were arrested following a fracas on Friday evening in which Mr, Sutton attempt- ed to masquerade as an officer of the law. The state police have also made several arrests and their cases will be heard on Wednesday. Fatality Sunday. Compon who lived at 53 Stanley street, New Britain, while walking with Domentek Corvi of the same ad- dress, along the Beach Swamp road in Kensington about 1:30 Sunday morn- ing, was struck by a Rio truck driven by Chapponi of New Britain. As a result of the compact Com- pon was thrown against the iron water pipes which are strewn along the road, sustaining a fractured skull and a broken leg. He died while being taken to the New Britain hospital. Prosecutor C. F. Lewis was called in and placed the driver of the truci under arrest: He was released in bonds of $5,000 and will appear in court tonight. 'y From what could be ascertained, the accident occurred near the George Prentice Manufacturing Co., plant. Dr. ‘Waterman Lyon who was also called upon the case, stated that the pipes are well towards the center of the road and as the victim walked along the roadside he could easily be struck by a passing auto. It is understood that Corvi walked on the path and the dead man along the roadside, with the sewer pipes be- tween them. The truck, it is sald, was traveling at a slow rate of speed. The truck came to a halt about 13 feet beyond the point of the accident. Corvi is employed as foreman at the Towers' brickyards, and roomed with Compon in New Britain. Wednesday Cases v Bloomquist and Sutton will appear before Judge Griswold Wednesday evening on a charge of intoxication. It is understood that Bloomquist was returning to Hartford from a visit in Meriden and while on the turnpike in this town a bearing burned out in bis machine. A local mechanic was called and the car was being towed into the driveway of the Elisha Clark homestead when Mr. Bloomquist be- came peeved and remonstrated with the mechanic for moving his machine into the yard. Sutton then appeared and believipg that he had the authority to do so, ar- rested Bloomquist.

The New Britain police were soon in touch with Prosecutor Lewis of this town who with Constable Brown went to New Britain to see what the troubte was. As a result both men have been crdered to appear in court Wednesday evening. How He Gained Authority. For some time past Sutton has been laboring under the hallucination that he was an officer o fthe law and could arrest whomsoever he wanted to. It has been learned that early last fall Sutton went to Town Clerk Arthur L. Woodruff and asked for permission to alt as a constable. He was told, however, that there were no vacancies in the constabulary and that if he wanted the position he should see Selectman Carter, This Sutton did and upon visiting Mr. Car- ter he was presented with a cigar and told what the town clerk had al- ready sail. Sutton evidently took the wroum meaning of the presentation of thg cigar and since that time has called himself a constable. At various times during this past spring he has acted as a traffic officer in front of his home. At one time it was necessary for constables to appear upon the scene and stralghten out the complications which“had been made by Sutton. Truck Overturns. A Reo truck overturned on the turnpike near the trolley terminal last evening and it was necessary post of duty at the Boston Post cor- ner and come to the scene of the ac- cident. The name of the driver could not be ascertained but it was learned that he was from New Britain and on his way to Savin Rock to bring a num- ber of picnickers back to the Hard- ware City. The truck skidded on the wet pave- ment, went part way up the embank- ment in front of the Gwatkin home- stead and then turned turtle, stretch- ing over the road and part of the trolley tracks. As a result of the accident, which occurred at about 6.30 o'clock traffic was blocked for over two hours., Au- tomobiles and trucks were lined up three and four abreast along the highway until Constable Webster came upon the scene and straighten- ed out the difficulties, Marriage Licenses Issued. Three marriage licenses were issued at the office of the town clerk ‘on Saturday. They are as follows: Jos- eph Grasso of 22 Clark street, New Britain, and Mary Vinza of Berlin; Stephen Godzik and Mary Babula of this town; Joseph Pas of 365 Broad street, and Eva Jackinowska of this town. 9, Extension Committee Meeting A. A. North, chairman of the ex- tension committee of the local school board, has returned from a vacation trip spent in Maine and when seen this morning stated that he is plan- ning to call a special meeting of the committee within a short time. The first problem to be discussed by the extension committee is that of securing a suitable site for the erec- tion of a new Senior High school building. Previous to the calling of a special town meeting for action, the matter will come before a meeting of the school committee. Farmers To Storrs.

The damage, esti- mated by Mr, Kosenko, was $4,500, The fire started in a small shed near the main building about 3:45 o'clock yesterday morning. It was discovered by Mrs. Kosenko and the alarm was sent in immediately, The firemen lost no time in arriving at the scene of the blaze, but were unable to lay any hose because of the fact that the nearest hydrant was at Pearl street, a distance of 1,500 feet away. It was therefore necessary to form a bucket brigade to save the nearby houses and little or nothing could he done to stem the fire in the farm buildings. The buildings held close chickens, and of these burned to death. Fire Gains Headway. At the first sign of the blaze in the small shed, Mrs, Kosenko aroused her husband, who immediately ran out to the main buildings and opened 'the doors in order to let the chickens escape. When the doors opened, a to 300 ‘1,000 were draft swept through the barn which gave the fire headway. Mr.. Kosenko sent in the alarm. The fire department jost no time in responding and on their arrival saw the uselessness of trying to save the buildings, so they bent their efforts to 1pplying water to the three surrouni- ng homes, one of which had taken e from the flying sparks. Residents Assist, leaping skyward, brought { neizhbors to the fire who | buciet | s lent 2 hand the wigada, Water was gecured from a nearby well which was applied to the small barns and houses near the blaze. The smell of roasting hirds filled the air and hundreds of them, with their feathers burned off, were in groups about the yard. Others scampered about the grounds and sought hiding places from whence they were afterwards routed out. Firemen Worked Hard. The firemen worked tirelessly and hard fighting the flames and saved \onsiderable movable property. Mr, {osenko gave them much praise in ‘heir efforts to save the bullding and ‘or the fact that his home was spared. He also thanked the many -cgldents who came to his assistance. Bain Considered Safe. The poultry barn, which was erect- 1 in 1920, was considered a safe building. It was 206 feet long and 15 feet wide, a modern chicken suilding in every respect. The en- tire place was equipped with electric igh The current, however, had een shut off during the summer months.* The value of the barn was olaced at $3,000 and carried but $1,000 insurance. The chickens which were lost, were all excellent breeders 1nd generally sold for $5 a piece. Mr. Kosenko had always kept his sheds clean to prevent any fires from starting in them and is at a loss to oxplain how this one started. It is believed, however, that some one had occupied the small shed dufing the night and upon leaving at an sarly hour, threw a match which started the straw going. Farm Now Crowded. With the loss of his largest barn, Mr. Kosenko finds now that his place is more than crowded with the chickens left practically without a| roof. There are upwards of 600 t must be quartered in the other sheds. | Mr. Kosenko will commence huild- ing at once and expects to.be ready on Willlam Brown, Jr., spending the past few day: guest of his parents, Mr. William Brow returned York this morning Mr. and Mrs. Howard Burnette and daughter, Frances, of New Britain were calling on friends in town last evening.

His business, which is one of the largest in this icinity, has grown consideyably dur- ing the past year and Mr. Kosenko has opened his farm to visitors who come from all parts of the state to visit his place. Whistle Works Well, The whistle on the Bristol Mills, which is generaily used for fire pur- poses, worked perfectly when the alarm was sent in.

The Aces baseball team came back | to its old form yesterday when they defeated the fast Wintons of Mart- ford at Allen's field. The score was 9 to 2. The visitors played good snappy ball and did some fine field- ing and heavy hitting. The locals came up (o the standard and held down the Wintons to two runs. The crowd which attended was larger than any ever turned out and! expressed themselves as pleased with the brand played by the Acs. Goeb was seen in left field having previously played short stop. The changa of Eddie from short to field was recommended by a prom-, inent fan. Holcomb was also seen nni the third sack as a chang: nd Con- nelly, a new man, played short stop.
