Kelley's Perfect Batting Helps to Put Bulkeiey Pitcher to the Woods. The loyal rooters who went to Wind- ham field Friday afternoon were am- ply repaid for their trouble and saw the home nine win out in a game re- plete with all kinds of ball playing. It was Windham's day all right and that was evident from the start, when in the opening inning, after Bulkeley had scored two runs on a punky play, <elley started to send Wall to the tali timbers, and paved the way for Wind- ham to crack out a bunch of three sin- gles, netting one run, before the side was retired.

YOUNG LADY PEDESTRIAN. Miss Mary Hughes of Mansfield Hal- low Waiked to This City, Four Miles, in 44 Minutes. Much interest has been taken in ped- destrianism in this vicinity of late, but no race was ever walked hereabouts that is destined to excite the lovers of the pastime so much as that of Miss Mary Hughes' race against time Fri- day evening, which was only a prelim- inary to what is in store for the ardent fans. Miss Mary is the 17 year old daughter of Martin Hughes of Mans- field Hollow, who was well known among the members of the former Young Men's Athletic club, and walked from that place to this city at the cor- ner of Jackson and Union streets Fri- day evening, a distance of four miles, in exactly 44 minutes flat. Miss Hughes is a slight young lady, bul true athletic type, and walked in ap- proved heel and toe style, with that free -and easy swing characteristic of the best walkers in the land. As suc came down Jackeon street and neared the finish of the race Miss Hughes' cheeks glowed with the flush of vic- tory. An exhibition race is to be ar- ranged for $50, as some sport in Mans- field Hollow has stated that no girl could walk from there. to Willimantic inside of 45 minutes. The road is a common country pike. ~Miss Hughes says she can do even better than her time Friday night. Local Notes. Mrs, Lucius C. Brown of Colchester is spending a few days at the camp ground.

Charles Edward Ferguson has es- caped from Brooklyn jail. He may not be recaptured, but in any event this particular criminal has given one more surprise to the persons in this section who have come to know about him. Jailer Fields raced over a good part of the eastern end of the county in his automobile Friday looking for the fleeing prisoner. He did not find him, but he learned that a man answering the description boarded a westbound frelght -at Abington about two hours atter the escape from the jail. Ferguson had served all but seven weeks of a sentence of six months for breaking and _enterinz the Frank Weaver house in Brooklyn last year. When he was tried and pleaded guiity to the charge in the superior court at utnam his story created wide sym- thy. Judge Robinson was so im- pressed that he refrained from im- posing sentence to permit Ferguson time to demonstrate the truthfulness of his story of hard luck and previous honesty.” Ferguson, tall, reserved and almost clerical.in appearance, hung his head in apparent shame and said that he preferred to receive the penalty rather than bring disgrace upon his loved omes by a knowledge of his wrongdoing. At the time he was ac- counted as an extremely unfortunale man or eise the best actor that had come before the court in many a day. Half reluctantly, the court gave him half a yedr in Brooklyn jail. He has been kept close tabs on up to very recently. Then he was placea at work in the stable. Thursday night he was sent out into a pasture to bring in the cows and has not yet returned. It was his first opportunity to escape. All doubt as to Ferguson's crookedness has been dissipated by his untrustwor- thiness, and if they get him he will staw hik full sentence and some months longer for good measure. If he-has a tamily in New Haven, as he claimed to have in court, they are bound to miss him for some time to come, CORPS RIFLE TEAM.

PUTNAM - it e Three Divorces Granted in Superior Court—Absence of Willimantic Wit- ness Delays Decision—Miss Macdon- ald to Teach in Willimantic. Judge Joel H. Reed heard four un- contesteddivorce cases at Friday's session of the superior court. Three decrees of separation were granted and one held up because an import- ant witness in the fourth case failed to_appear in court. 2 Mrs. Nellie M. Doane of South Iiiil- ingly was given a'divorce from Jo :ua F. Doane of Harwichport, Mass., on the grounds of intemperance and granted the custody of their two chil- dren, Myrtis, aged 13, and Inez, T. Mr. and Mrs. Doane were married. in Danlelson, January 14, 1891, From Danielson they went to Providence, where they [lved for six years, and where their first child was born. | La- ter they lived for two years in Bgew: ter, Mass., moving from there to ’Har- wichport, where they lived for two years and up to the time of their sep- aration, on June of 1905. Mrs. Doane was forced to leave by reason of her husband's habitual in- temperance and failure to support her. She has since lived with relatives in South Killingly. Mrs. Doane’s evidence was sub- stantiated by other witnesses, who have been familiar with his career for several years. Senator Charles BE. Searls represented Mrs. Doane. DEAF AND DUMB SON Beaten by Brutal Patrick Doran—Di- vorce for Wife. The story of the. wrongs' heaped on Elizabeth Doran by her husband in- spired a thrill of sympathy as she re- lated her misfortunes to thé court. Mrs. Doran was married to Patrick Doran in Bennington, Vt., fifteen years ago. Three years ago they came to Putnam. ; They have three children; the eldcst he youngest § years. The second child s a deaf mute. Mrs. Doran testified that her life was a ontinual horror. Her brutal hus- band drank and caroused and many a time threatened to kill her and the children, and occasionally to do'away with himsel Known his fellow employes as “Simon Legree,” he lived up to the reputation by beating the little deaf and dumb son at the glight- est provocation or without any %t all. Finally he deserted his wife when she was very fil and almost penniless. The evidence made him.out a worth- less, drunken, despicable character, and Judge Reed granted a decree on the grounds of habitual intemperance and intolerable cruelty and the cu tody of the children to Mrs. Doran, who has supported them by working in the mill, or where opportunity of- fered. Attorney Eric Johnson appear- ed for Mrs. Doran. DECREE FOR HUSBAND. Henderson J. Hall Made Out Bad Case Against Wife. ! Henderson J. Hall (colored) of Put- nam. alleging adultery against Agnes J. Hall, was given a_divorce and the custody of their nine year old daugh- ter, now in the care of Mr. and Mrs. . 'B. Howard at Norwich. Mr. and Mrs. Hall were married in Putnam August 16, 1899, and lived here up to the time of Mrs. Hall's desertion, sev- en _years ago. Mr. Hall said that some of his wife's men “cousins” were in the habit of calling on her while he was away from home. Evidence was _ subnfitted proving that Mrs. Hall was convicted in the city court of Norwich on July 7, 1907, of being In a disorderly house and was sent to jail. Simon Beverly Howard told of knowing about Mrs. Hall living in a box car at Allyns Point with a Por- tuguese coal shoveler and that when she came to Norwich she was “as sure of getting a skinful of liquor as a duck is to swim.” _Senator . C. E. Searls represented Mr. Hall. THE GAY LIFE Chosen by Dora J. Congdon, Whose Husband Seeks a Decree. William S. Congdon, city sheriff of Willimantic, and a dyer for the Am- erican Thread company, sought a sep- aration from Dora J. Congdon, now of New York, alleging adultery. They were married in Burrillville, R. I, April 19, 1902, and up to the time she left her husband, March 24, 1908, they lived in Willimantic, but, as her hus- band stated, she had not really been a wife for several months previous to that time. Congdon told the court that his wife had admitted [to him her infi- delity and asked him to take her back on her promise of future chastity. He refused. Mrs. Congdon went to New York. Letters to her sister Louise of Pittsfield, Mass., were introduced by Attorney King, representing the plain- tiff. The let written in New York, were suggestive of the gay doings of the Great White Way, frivolously al- luring in their- inducements to “Kid- do Lou” to come down and share the familiarities of her sister's “friends.” Orlando P. Smith, employed at the Willimantic postoffice, told of seeing Mrs. Congdon going into the Wash- burn block in Willimantic. He told it as if such a happening was signifi- cant, in his home city. Mrs. Kather- ine W. Congdon, mother of the plain- tiff, testified that Dora was frequently away from home, and also that Dora was not always truthful 'in telling about where her time was spent. Chauncey W. Wilson, who lives near Willimantic, and Is a relative of the principals, told of a recent visit that Dora made at his home. She came over from New York in an automobile. During the visit she exhibited a dia- mond ring which she said had cost $275. She told Mr. Wilson the name of the New York man who gave it to her, but Mr. Wilson could not recall the name. “latw R All of this evidence was important, but Judge Reed.did not want to con- sider it as absolutely conclusive proof of the charge alleged. Attorney King stated that he had expected another witness, Alvin Potvin of Willimantic, to testify, but_he had failed to come to Putnam.' By Mr. Potvin's testi- mony, Attorney King stated, he hoped to preclude every possibility of doubt as to the charge alleged. Judge Reed finally agreed to allow Mr. King to.take Mr. Potvin's deposi- tion and file with the other papers, ta- ken by the judge, pending a decision. The few matters on short calendar were quickly despatched. Cases Restored to Docket. Cases discontinued last Tuesday were in the following instances re- stored to the docket, at the request of attorneys: City of Willimantic ve. Stiles; city of Willimantic vs. Mulli- gan; Potter vs. Turner; Abbe et sl appeal from probate; Kinney vs. Kin- ney.
