The course will be down North Main street to the East Side, and will end at Fifth street, as in the race two weeks ago.

Some New Equipment. It was stated on Tuesday evening by Mayor B. L. Armstrong of New London that the Brainard & Arm- strong Co, of that city pll.-tovut in operation very soop its newly ac- quired silk mill in this city, equip- ping it with 160 looms ahd other mod- ern machinery for the business. ‘The plant is the M. J.Green silk mill off Golden street, which has been closed for the past few months, Mr. Green has an excellent plant there, and it large backer of the concern, a New erk man, and the settling up of his estate, caused the temporary closing of the plant. The closing of the estate re- sulted in an embarrassing predicament for the company, and creditors brought suits to protect themselves. The mat- ter was brought before a board of trade committee and they had confer- CRIMINAL SUPERIOR COURT ADJOURNS WITHOUT DATE. All the Business Completed, a Number of Cases Beiny Continusd—Maynard Sent to Norwich State Hospital. Sayingythat he had written the ways and means committee of congress ad- vising them in the proper steps in the tarlff revision; that he had written President Taft offering the president a summer home in Portsmouth, N. H.; that he has $5000,000 of property; that he has an invention that will rev- olutionize the world of invention, but which he cannot successfully exploit because he cannot find an adequate water site, and that he suggested a portion of the finding In the recent $29,000.000 Standard Ofl fines, Alfred Maynard of Providence, R. I, testified s -own behalf in' the = sul criminal court in New London Tues- day, In ywhich he came charged with common law burglary in breaking into the home of Mrs. Marla Frink in what is known as Militown, North Stoning- ton, on April 30 of this year. Ii was a pathetic sight that the court officials and spectators saw when Maynard took the etand after witness- es had testified to his entering Mrs. Frink's home on the date in question. Maynard, of eminently respectable ap- pearance, was neatly dressed, wearing starched collar and shirt, in marked contrast to the average man who is brought to the superior court on such a charge; his face was clean shaven and his appearance generally showed care, His face was that of a man who had been of more than average intelligence, but whose mental facul- ties had been impaired through trou- ble, overstudy or something of that iind. As he told his weird story on the stand his manner was not that of an insane men: he was perfectly calm, but a vacant stare told of his mental weakness. After all the testimony in the case had been heard and_ State Attorney Hull and Attorney John J. Lawless, who represented Maynard, had agreed that he was insane, Judge Gager charged the jury, telling them that they might find Maynard, who was undoubtedly insane, not guilty on the grounds of insanity. The jury, out but a short while, did this, and Judge Gager sentenced May- Inard to spend a year at the Norwich | hospital for the insane. As far as !s | known the man has no relatives. He claims to live in Providence when not away on business, but that he has been away from home visiting every body of water in Connecticut in search for a water site suitable for his wonderful invention. For the state there were few wit- | nesses, Mrs. Caswell, George Littler, Warren B. Burrows and Dr. H, O. Spalding testifying. After the Maynard case Judge Gager | took occasion to thank the jurors and | to express his pleasure at the brevity { of the term, which he #aid wes matter | of congratulation, both for the state | and for the jurors. He then dismissed thera and = court adjourned without day. Other Cases Considered The Maynard case was the only case tried Tuesday, but other matters were disppsed of in other w: After court, to order about 10.80, State Attorne; Hull sald that In the case of Davl Gordon, Abraham Fox and Morris Goldfaden he would move a continu- ance until the . September term. Mr. Hull £ald that Attorneys Thayer and Shields, who are counsel for the men, cases for trial for this term. They were willing to agree to submit state- ment of their pleas and clatms on or before August 15 in order to allow the state’s attorney time in which to pre- pare, to meet this defense. On this agreemen Judge Gager or- dered the continuance. Gordon, Fox and Goldfalen ahe charged with re- ocelving and selling copper wire stglen from the New Haven road at Norwich. At present they are out under bonds of $1.500 each. They were arrested by Special Agent Hazelhurst of the New Haven road. who was present in court, in antialpation of the trial of the case. A continuance in the case of Albert Hewitt of Lebanon, charged with the theft of a cow was also granted, and the case will be heard at the Septem- ber term. State Atiorney Hull said that something has cntered into the case which would rgquire investigation before trial. The people from the sec- tion fn which Hewitt lives, {t is said, are anxious to see him punished. as | they say he 18 gulity of offen | than the alleged theft of the cow The case against George ml n, charged with criminal assault on « young girl in Groton, the Vinie M lady case, the case of John Lynch, charged with assault with intent to kill, and the other cases of interest stand. over until the September term.
