. LAND DSPUTEGETS TOSUPREHECOURT omsma of Five Hoot Strip to A dispute over a strip of land fronting five feet on Corbin avenue 18 occupying the attention of the su- preme court of errors, on appeal by Salvatore Scappelatti from a deci- sion of the common pleas court which supported the claim of Car- mantonio DiDomizio to title in the strip. In 1926, DiDomizio transferred 130 feet of his 135-foot plot to Scappelatti. Scappelatti claims to have been in posgession of all of the property for some years and claims to have the right to title on that ac- count, hut DiDomizio denies this claim insofar as it relates to the five fect not transferred. i The appeal was taken through the effices of Casale:& Casale. Attorney Donald Gaffney represents Di- Domizio. Another local case in supreme eourt today is that in which Frank A. Perkins seeks to collect from Christian August of this city, $257.82, representing the costs of probating the estate of Mr. August, deceased husband of the defendent. When Mr. August died, leaving land in Simsbury, the cstate was nat probated. Other heirs quit-claimed their interest to Mrs. August, one heir, only, failing to do so. Bubse- quently the property was sold to Perkins, and it was found that the estate was not probated. The one heir who had not previously quit- claimed did so, but the purchaser in- sisted that Mrs. Perkins take out letters of administratoin. When she did not, Rose Perkins put the estatg through probate, and the bill was sent to Mrs. August. Her refusal to pay resulted in a common pleas trial in which her claim, presented by Donald Gaftney, was supported. Appeal was then taken. The ques- tion to be decided is whether it was necessary te put the ¢state through rrobate to give good title to the property. POISON INFLOUR WAKES EIGHT 1L Thrilty Store Clerk at Fauli— Victims Will Recover Chicago, May 16 (P)»—Eight per- sons who partook of a birthday cake at a celebration last night were made seriously though probably not fatally ill by poison mixed with flour used in baking the cake. Health authorities discovered mearly a cupful of deadly poison mixed with the, flour. Two holes, covered with labels, were found in the flour package. Po- lice believed the holes were gnawed by mice and that a thrifty clerk ‘where the flour had been purchased had scooped up the poison, sprinkled around to kill rodents, with the spilled flour and poured it into the package, closing the holes. Authorities said, however they ‘would investigate whether the poison had been mixed with the flour de- liberately. Frank J. Ruehlman, host at the party and one of those stricken, declared he knew no motive why a deliberate attempt would be made to poison him or his family. Ohio has passed an habitual crim- fnal act which provides life im- prisonment for two convictions on major charges. llndutrlal Council I Has New President R. H, WILCOX R. H. Wilcox of the P. & F.

Avery & 8on milk delivery wagon ran away about 7:30 this morning while the driver, Henry S8aravan, aged about 18 of 42 Rockwell ave- nue, was delivering milk at 111 Co- lumbia street. Plunging down the embankment near the steps leading to Arch street, the horse narrow- ly escaped serious injury when the wagon turned over, ‘entangling it in the harness and throwing it dowa. Sergeant T. J. Feeney was detail- ed by Lieutenant Matthias Rival on receipt of a report of the accident, and it was with great difficulty that the horse was freed from the wreck- age. Fortunately it did not sustain even a scratch, Milk bottles were strewn about the embankment and the wagon was damaged. The horse and wagon were wedged against the railing on the stone steps, otherwise they might have continued down the em- bankment, in which case the ani- mal probably would have plunged to death.
