Luby of Kensington, 82 years of age and one of the best- known men in fhe town, died at his home last night, being one of the last of the Clvil war veterans in the town f Berlin. X Mr. Luby was born in New York city, where he received his early edu- cation. When he was eight years of age’ his family moved to Berlin, where they settled on a farm. When the Civil war broke out Mr. Luby at once enlisted, being assigned to Company E, Cennecticut Volunteers, ‘a company composed of ‘“minute men,” as they were called, being composed of Massachusetts and Con- pecticut men. Mr. Luby served un- til the end of the war and received Lis honorable discharge. He was a familiar figure in Ken- sington and his abiifty to remember scenes and events of the Civil war and to tell them to his listeners was also well known. His stories were| always interesting. He leaves besides his wife, four sons, - Richard of Kensington; James| and P. J. Luby of Bristol, and John of Mariden, and three daughters, Mrs. Frank Worpcheck of New Brit- ain; Mrs. Edward McCormick of Kensington and Miss Margaret Luby of Kensington. He was a member of the Berlin Veterans' association and the Holy Name society. He at- tended St. Paul's church in Kensing- ton and the funeral will be held there Wednesday mornihg at 9 o'clock, Driver Was Intoxicated Anthong Gallagher of 20 Home-| stead avenue, Hartford, was arrested | on a charge of operating an autbmo- bile while under the influence of liquor by State Polictman Clifford | Gorgas about 9 o'clock last evening. | The man had had no accident with | the car, but the officer was of the opinion that the road would be safer RUB RHEUMATIC, ACHING JOINTS 'AND STOP PAIN St. Jacobs Oil stops any pain, and rheumatism is pain only.

It is ‘said that the car was proceeding along the 'pike in a cork-screw man- ner. He was taken to the New Britain police station and will be brought up for trial in the Berlin court Wednes- day evening. The car was put in charge of Officer Gorgas. Picnikers Hold Riot When from 100 to 150 people, most of the male members of the party be- ing more or less under the influence of "hooch,” start getting personal by means of fists, knives and rocks and stage a riot, it is time for one lone man who may endeavor to quell such a disturbance, to disappear from the scenc, However, State Policeman Walter Lenehan, who has acquired much fame on the turnpike by means of his captures of alcohol cars, started to quell such a_ disturbance yesterday afternoon single handed, but finaily called the assistance of Constable Frank Brown of Kensington. The scene of the disturbance was the old Veét's farm in the northern part of the town a short distance from About 150 Assyrians gath- noon to hold a picnic. There was plenty of booze at the prty and all were feeling in a fighting mood. When the party got too rough people in neighboring houses =ent for Officer Lenehan, who was patrolling the highway to keep traffic straight. He looked over the situation and finally | called the assistance of Officer Brown. The two men started to round up the disturbers, but in a short time found that such a group of men “fightin’ drunk” couldn't be rounded up by two officers and a hurry call was sent to Hartford for other state officers and Officers DBrandt, Gorgas and Busl Berlin Constable Ventres and Berlin Prosecutor C. F. Lewis re- sponded. They succeeded after some time in quelling the disturbance. After the riot has ceased the New Britain police patro! was used to con- vey those arrested back to the New Britain jail, where they were locked up pending trial. Most of the men were battered and scratched, their| clothing torn, but their desire to fight | gone, An investigation was started on the fleld of battle as to who was respon- sible for the appearance of the liquor at the party. John Mosshie and Sam Baba, who it is alleged were selling the Jiquor, were airested on charges of violating the liquor law. Others ar- rested were Baba Milco, Alek Sugis, | Agis Milco, David - Benjamin, FElias Tacob, Daniel Jacobs, Alex Milco, Nimrod Sargis, Illisha Joseph, Sam John and Abel Benjamin. These men will be arraigned hefora Judge George Griswold in the Berlin court this eveningas on charges of hreach of the peace. L It was reported that Constable Brown was severely heaten by the fighters, but it was made known this morning that he suffered no ill effects, plunging into the group of fighters, loing his share in quelling the battle and escaping practically unscatehed. The report also reached New Brit- ain that there had been gun play ahd ihat several were dead. This was the reason for the speedy appearance of | the “pie wagon.” | Lenehan Gets Another | “The liquor collector” made anoth- er haul on the turnpike about a half mile north of/the post office in Ber- lin, when Officer Lenehan stopped a Cadillac roadster and found about 80 | gallons of alcohol stored behind the seat Saturday night. | The driver of the car gave his rame as Ate Zager of Brooklyn and he was arrested and taken to the New Dritain police station awaiting trial in the Berlin town court. The car and liquor were taken to the state police headquarters in Hartford. Zager will be George Griswold Im the town this evening upon a charge of illegal- Iy transport'ng Itawor.
