Prompt 5 X i -~Frisoners Sent to Jail Disappeared. : ‘When the superior court opened on Thursday morning August Gomles of Aliyn's Point was presented on the charge of carrying a concealed weapon. He was given three months in jail. According to the story told by At- torney A. A. Browning the accusgd had trouble with his boarding mistress No- vember 16; she told her son after leav- ing the house. When the men met Gomes produced a revolver, but was disarmed. Philip Wyant, ag®3 40, of New Lon- don, pieaded guilty to attempting to assault an Itallan girl in New London. Attorney Freeman spoke for him, stat- ing that he does not drink, Is a good carpenter, and has a wife and four chil- | dren, but does not live with them. He was ‘given not less than a year nor more than three In state prison. He cried when sentence was pronounced. On the charge of carrying a conceal- ed weapon, Ezra Mather was given three months in jail and fined $50. He is 20 years old and lives in Old Lyme. Attorney Freeman said he had been on probation for a time and wanted to Join the navy. A shot had been fired through a window in Old Lyme, and the bullet fitted Mather's weapon, and he was supposed to have been in the vicinity. State's Atiorney Hull called him the bad bo(y of Old Lyme. For the theff of a $400 motor boat | In Groton, Sept. 2, John W. Forbes, who pleaded guilty Wednesday, was given one to two years in state prison. On the charge of entering cottages a Quaker Hill and stealing junk, Fred- erick, Edward and Charles Chapman an} Joseph Forsythe pleaded guilty. They were given good advice by Judge Wheeler, who sent them to jail for six months, excepting Charles, who is to be put on prohation later. Danfel and Joseph Pierce pleaded not gulilty to cruelty to a horse in Preston, Dec, 7, and Attorney E. . Perkins was assigned to their case. Tomlinson Disappears. State’s Attorney Hull stated Thurs- day that the bond In the case of George Tomliason of Groton will be held open a few davs' longer, pending a search for Tomiinson. Owing to the fact that calling off the hond would work a great hardship on the youth's mother, Mrs, George* Lamb of Groton, this leniency is shown by the state. Tomlinson is charged with felonious assault, and has been’ out on $2,000 bonds waiting trial. He has been em- ploved in a bleachery at Pawtucket, coming here this week to answer the charze. Wedneslay, it vas noticed that Tom- linson, who had been in court up to that fime, had suddenly disappeared. Neither his counsel, Ralph Denison, nor his mother knew where he had gone. Constable Edward G. Black has since been. searching for the youth, but in vain. The bond which Mrs. Lamb gave for her son’s appearance in court was backed by her home In Groton. Mr. Lamb Is in a serious condition with heart failure, and the family Is not in a position where it can,afford to lose their home through haVing the bond called. Tomlinson will be diligently searched for and meanwhile the bond will be continued for the sake of his family. State’s Attorney Hull attributes Tom- linson's sudden disappearance to frizht when he saw the way the other pris- oners were heing sentenced. Up to this 4 Majof Hull says, he thinks Tom- linson treated the charge lightly. Charged with theft from the person in a New London saloon, James Gor- man pleaded guilty and was given two months in jall. Attorney Geary said he THAMES RIVER TERRACES. Paper on Their Delta Structure Read by F. at Baltimore. Form and P. Gulliver F. P. Gulliver returned Tuesday night from attending the 60th meet- ing of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Bal- timore December 28 to January 2. At the meeting of the Geological society of America he read two papers on the Nantucket Shore Lines, and at the As- gociation of American Geographers, he read a paper on_The Delta Structure of the Thames River Terraces, Con- necticut, He sald: The terraces of the Thames river in eastern Connecticut are from 15 to 20 feet above sea level at New Lon- don, 40 to 50 feet at Montville, 70 to 80 feet at Brewsters Neck and near Trading Cove, 100 to 120 feet at Nor- wich, 200 to 240 feet at Willimantic, and 250 to 280 feet near Danielson. A casual inspection of the surface forms of these terraces would suggest that they were formed as river ter- aces after the retreat of the ice. This ’:a Dana’s idea in regard to them published in_1880. The structure, however ' is a delta structure, which was well shown by the cuts made at the navy yard, north of Groton, when the New York, New Haven & Hart- ford rallroad built its line from New Loondon to Norwich in 1897, Mr. Gulliver was secretary of sec- tion B, Geology and Geography, at the meeting.

Mr. Bulkeley.—We have in the city where I reside one of the largest sav- ings banks, If not the largest in our state, with deposits amounting proba- bly from $20,000,000 to $25,000,000. will venture to say, without an exact knowledge of the condition, that no of- ficer of that savings bank receives a compensation in excess of $5000, and that but one officer receives as large 4 compensation as that. The clerical force necessary to conduct the husiness usually recelves compensation of the ordinary character attached to posi- tions of that kind. I venture the assei- tion now that no business of the mag nitude of the savings banks of Con- necticut—and I might say as well of New England—is conducted with such sconomical expense as are the savings hanks to which the senator from Mon tana has referred as_existi New England state.
