Berlix Nes THREE QUARTS AR T00 KUCH LIQUOR Waterbury Woman Testifies It Was for Party of Five People FINE OF $50 METED OUT Luris Pays Costs-Ridgefield Gets Off With Costs—Iemocratic OCaucus— Interest in Qoits—Other Items of Interest. Three quartt of liquor, and moon- shine at that, would seem to be a little too muc. for live people to get away with fnone evening, but Arnita *Brown, colord, of Waterbury stated calmly befor ‘Judge Griswold in the Berlin towncourt last night that it, wa# possibleand even probable that she and for friends would have downed tha quantity of the stuff if they had mt been separated from it last Friday night in East Berlin by State Polleman Arthur Cone and Berlin Offcers John Léwis and Ven- tres. Shewas fined $80.62 and given a suspenced jail sentence of 30 days. She coulin't pay the fine last night and wastaken to jail. Arnit: was brought in charged with transpoting liquor with intent to sell. Vhen put on tke witness stand she hesrd the charge and when asked wheths or not she was guilty replied with a marked southern accent, “Well I don’t think I'm guilty.” Hovever, Prosecutor Charles T. Lewis was of a differeni opinion and did his best to prove ls arguments. Officer Cone, when :alled to the stand, offered as evidente a hand bag containing three half-unt bottles of a colorless liquid which Arnita called whiskey, and a two-quurt jar three- quarters full of the sane stuff. The state policeman said that he and the two Berlin offcers had been over in East Berlin vorking on an- other case and had Jeen instructed to hold up and qpesion the occu- pants of all cars pasng them. The car containing Arnitaind her fricnds, driven by a’white ma, a Mr. Butler, it was found later, ame along and the people were stoped and ques- tioned. . A search of the er was nade and the liquor found. ’‘he officer testi- fied that at first Anita had admitted that she owned th llquor, but later had denied it. Tk Berlln officers testified that they had heard her make these two sttements, The officer sai/ the party was bound from Watrbury to East Ber- 1in. when apprhended and were probably on the' way fo the exer- cises at one ofthe brick yards in that district, whre big times are held every pay night which is Friday. He testified that pne of the occupants of the car wee under the influe of liquor at te time they wote prehended. Arnita, whn called to testify, told a long and _omplicated story, =o complicated hat Prosecutor Lewis was forced { interrupt several times.

Arnita was rather uncertain as to how many drinks they had before they started. She started out by say- ing they had two apiece, hut before Prosecutor Lewis had finished his questioning it developed that they had between five and seven drinks. She was very firm in her state- ment that they did not have the liquor for sale and said they intended to drink it all, a statement which amazed the prosecutor and all in th2 court room, except Arnita and her four friends, one of them her husband. She insisted that the party had not planned on going to East Berlin when they started out, They had merely intended to ‘“ride around a little,” On the way, she said, after some questioning, they had decided to go fo East Berlin, as they had friends there, “some of the boys,” she sald. Here developed a lengthy argu- ment as to whether or not the party was in the habit of going teés the brick yard pay night parties regularly and it developed that they had been there once, about three weeks ago. How many more times could not be found out. When asked about the half pint bottles of liquor, she denied having made it and said she had purchased it, paying 50 cents per bottle. She was rather vague as to where she got the jar of whiskey and said she had not bought it. *You must have some kind friends, then,” commented Mr. Lewis. The woman was certain that none had been taken on the way to East Berlin. It developed that the driver had been strictly sober. “What About Watchman?" What at first promised to be an in- teresting part of the procecdings came when Prosecutor Lewis sud- denly challenged, “What do you know about the watchman in East Berlin?” “What watchman?” asked Arnita. “You never heard of a watchman ast Berlin?" No.” Periodically the prosecutor shot questions regarding the late James O'Neill at the woman, but no satis- faction could be gained. Prosceutor Lewis expressed himself after court as being sure that the crowd knew | something about the case. 1 Butler, the driver, when called to the stand, stated that he had had no knowledge that the liquor was in the car. He admitted that he had taken the party around the state quite | ofen. but said that they had been to Imst Berlin only once before. He testified that he would not have al- Towed the liquor in the car if he had known gbout it. Judgé Griswold imposed sentence of $50 and costs and 30 days in Jail, suspended. Arnita oroke down and cried when the news was broken to her, as, according to her testimony, she had never heen arrested before. but her husband said he would be in | daughter, Come give personal in- was arrested by a state policeman on August 10 after he had attempted to pass between two cars going in oppo- site directions on the turnpike. The young man told a straightfor- ward story. He admitted that he had | been in the wrong in regard to driv- ing without a license, but said that he had waited for over two weeks in order to get the license. He was driving his mother's car from Maine for her at the time he was appre- hended, so that she might be able to use it this summer. He said he had hougd that his license might reach him in time. He gave his residence as the Y. M. C. A, Chester, Pa, Due to his straight forward story the reckless driving charge was nolled, but it was admitted that he had driven recklessly when attempt- ing to pass the cars on the turnpike and he paid the costs after Judge Griswold had given him a warning.

Rund of New Britain has moved his family. into their new home in Berlin just south of the South school house. Mr. Rund has had the house built this year. Quoits and horse shoe pitching are now beginning to occupy a great deal of attention in East Berlin and vie for honors with tennis in regard to enthusiasm. It is expected that in the near future teams for these two branches of sport will be put in the fleld, since several challenges from teams in other towns have been re- ceived in East Berlin.

The supporters of the democratic party in Berlin are all earnest work- ers and are planning to take an active mart in town politles this fall. Tt is expected that they will try to give the republicans a run for their money and one democrat said today that the other party has®had things its own way long enough.

Jacob J. Luria of 120 South Cliff street, Ansonia, paid costs of $13.45 when he was arraigned e¢n a charge of reckless driving. The man was arrested early in the morning of July 4, and has been several weeks in ar- riving in court, due ot some excuse or other each week., He was repre- sented by C. J.

This is the first gathering of Ku Klux held in Plainville in some time. Rogers Not to Run, Representative Myron K. Rogers, | who has represented Plainville in the | past session of the legislature, in an" interview today stated that under no circumstances was he to be a candi- | date for the office at the polls this year. He said that the work of a| representative at the state capitol re-| quires so much time that he will not | be able to do justice to the office| again this coming term. Mr, logem‘ stated that his decision not to be a | candidate to succeed definite and final and said that al- though he would like to have anoth- er session in the house, his private business would not allow him to de- vote the necessary time to the many matters which are to be considered. This statement, coming as it does a was no| the caucus, leaves a definite place open to some candidate for the office. No one has come forward at the present time as a candidate for the nomina- tion, but several will probably be out for the position because of the fact that Mr. Rogers will not run, The present representative’s work during the last session of the legislature, as a member of important committees, made the office sure for him if he wished to take the nomination ngainl‘ this year. Withdrawing From Race, It was reported on good authority this morning that one of the three candidates for the republican nomi- nation as first sclectman had with- drawn his name. This was done in view of the foct that Mr. Johnson lLies stated that he will be a candidate to succeed himself at the caucus, which will be held next month, Another man, who is said to have the nomina- tion in mind, is being prevailed upon to also withdraw. He is said to be undecided a& to his future course, 1f he runs, his announcement will be made this’ week, and if'the argu- ments of the members of the repub- lican town committee who are seek- ing to keep harmony in the ranks this | year prevail upon him to stop his ef- forts, he will give his individual sup- port to Sclectman Johnson, it is said. This will leave one other probale can- didate in the field, and as he is at present away on his vacation, no statement will be forthcoming until Le has weturned. Mrs, Goodhue Buried.
