Burnap of the water department had a number of men at work placing a modern, hy- drant in Broadway, opposite the Broad- way school building. This will take the place of the old hydrant, which was on the side of the street nearer the school building. The new hydrant is larger and has a steamer connection. There is au eight inch pipe connecting it with the ten inoh maln In the street. 1t was considered that the old hydrant did not give as good protection to that section, and particularly to the school bu‘lding, as there should be. It would, also serve to station an engine there for fires In factories in Chestnut street by running the lines of hose through the school yard. 2 Several other new hydrants of mod- ern type and large capacity are to be put in by Supt. Burnap in the business section. = Wihile the present ones are not in bad condition, yet it is belioyed ASSISTANT WANTED FOR * COMMON PLEAS COURT. Resolution Before Legislature Does Not Concern Superior Court. " There has been much curlosity aroused over the Hartford account of the action in the house Thursday re- garding, as the report sald, an assist- ant superior court clerk. Instead of the assistant * superior court clerk it is an assistant for the <ourt of common pleas, the facts being as_follows The judiclary committee reported a resolution to provide for an additional assistant clerk in New London county common ' pleas court. It would in- volve no additional expense, said Sen- ator Searls. asked how that Senator Blak was. Senator Searls ‘sald somebody—he didn’t know who—would take the place without pay. He might get a lit- tle fee, but nothing to speak of. The senator moved suspension of the rules and passage of the resolution. Senator Blakeslee thought is a most remarkable case. Most court officeds want more than they get. He'd like to krov wro this msa is. He may come in later with a request for pay. The judiclary and couft expenses are getting very heavy, he said. Senator ~Searls ‘withdrew his mo- tion for suspension of the rules, and the resolution will take ‘the ordinary course of going on the calendar. The appointment of an assisant would not mean any salary, as the a sistant would not be expected to per- form any duties unless the clerk should be incapacitated. As stated sometime ago, J. Frank Corey is the choice of Judge Waller for that place, as he has had much experience in the office and would make an execptionally good as- sistant; bpt his duties wili be prac- tically none when the clerk is in town, 50 that the statement about his serving without a salary is easily explaine: With the offices of the common pleas and superior court clerks being togeth- | er, as they are now, it was possible for one to look after the duties of the other In the office during a temporary’ absence, but the common pleas cou: clerk will soon move to the addition, and 1t will the be necessary to have an assistant, which the resolution con- cerns.

Amount to_ About Seven Months— Gave Up Idea of Appeal. In the city Ing thé J%lt P. Moulton, char was_tried, occupying , and as the result Moulton was found guil- ty and sentenced to jail for five months and ordered to pay the costs. He de- cided to serve out, the sentence and it he serves out the costs he will have about seven months on Cegdar street, as the costs are $56. At the opening of the gourt, Clty Attorney Hall stated that he had amended the complaint so that Moul- ton was charged, in addition to an other count, with getting about $250 under false pretences from G. W. Car- roll to settle cases in New Haven. To this Attorney Burke offered a plea of jurisdiction and Attorney Hall demur- Ted. Judge Brown overruled the de- murrer and considered the plea to jurisdiction rightly raisel as the crime tcok place there and not in Norwich. The first count, whidh charged Moulton with getting $190_in_money and $100 on a check from G. W. Car- roll to go to Brockton and get bonde from I, E. Sweet; was then taken up and he was tried on that. Failing to g0 to Brockton or do as he promised resulted in Moulton's arrest. G. W. Carroll was the first witnes and testified that on February 12 at New London, Moulton told him if he could get $200 more he could get two bonds of the East Lyme Electric rail- way and one of the New London Gas | & Electric Co., from his brother-in- {law, F. E. Sweét, in#Brockton. Later Motilton €aid that his drother-in-law had telephoned him he could get the bonds for $200. The check was cashed | here and Mr. Moulton left town. La ter Mr, Carroll received two telsgrams tori, saying everything was d that he wouid have the believed Moulton. ~ On jon AMr. Carroll said n‘l Pe wanted the 3200 to j## en hefr of the bonds. 3 ttornéy ¥. E. Sweet of Brocktdn testified that meither Moulton or his wife had apy interest in the sald bonds on Few, 7 ér 12, He did not see Moul- ton orget any money from him at that time. said he sold the bonds Dec. 10 and did not motify Mouiton of the sale. The state then rested. Mouiton took the stand in his own defense and -testified that he did not know_the bonds had been sold, his wife having owned an interest in them at one time. He fld Mr. Carroll he supposed he could get the bonds for $$200 and by the telegrams he meant that matters could be carried out all right. He supposed his _statements were true. He admitted he said the $200 had been spent in the bond mat- ter, being under arrest at the time. There was a tilt between the attorneys over what was said hetween Messr Carroll, Moulton, Desmond and Hali about returning the $200 and settling the case. Attorney Desmond was called and testified that he was at the confer- ence and nothing was said ahout se tling the case for $200. Moulton said he had spent the $200, having as he said left it at Brockton, nd could get it back from Mr. Sweet. Moulton was given every chance to adjust the ma ter. r. Hall acted perfectly fair »n the matter, There were statements made to the court that the young n n Was 3ot ar- { rested for the purpose of collecting the money. Judge Brown decided the -case was whhin his juriediction and found Moulton _gufity, but inasmuch as Messrs. Carroll and Moulton had done business for a year the offense was not as bad as if they had been stranger {He sentenced Moulton to five months in jail and he must pay the costs Moulton remainéd at police station until 5.10, not having decided until then whether 0 go up to jail and serve his time or take an appeal. He learned that he wouldn't have time to take an appeal after going to jail and that once taken he could pot withdraw ft, 50 he decided to go to jail and was taken there by Policeman Henderson.
