After an absence of ten years, says the Hartford Post, one of the only two prisoners who ever escaped from the state prison at Wethersfield, Ferd- inand Szantho, a burglar with a long record, was brought back to Wethers- fleld to serve out the rest of his sen- tence. He was arrested on his release from Jollet penitentiary in Illinois, and was brought to Hartford from Chicago |by Deputy Sheriff Stagg of Briggepor, arriving at Hartford at noon. Szantho is known as a desperate purglar, and he has a recorG n three penitentiaries. He was sentenced to state prison at Wethersfield for a term of five years for a burglary in Bridge- port, February 12, 1897. After being confined for a few months, Szantho pretended insanity and succeeded in fooling the physi- clans, so that he was confined in the insane ward of the prison. Another prisoner confined in the same ward, Frank Rusukowsky. a burglar with a record, sentenced from New Haven in January, 1897. for a term of seven years for burglary, and Szantho, plan- ned a cunning escape, and on the night of June 13, 1899, the two men made their escape through the skylight o the jnsane ward, using ropes which they had made from blankets to lower them to the ground. They are the only prisoners who ever escaped from Wethersfield. Rusukowsky has never been cap- tured. Szantho was arrested for bur- glary in the west and was sentenced to & term in Joliet. The eastern au- thorities learned of his arrest and they arrested him upon his release from Joliet this week. Ordinary Number of Divorce: In looking over the list of divorces which have been granted in New Ha- ven county during the year of 1908, compiled for record in the office of the clerk of the superior court, it is seen that the past year hus been an average one in respect to the number decrees granted, the number being Of these, 88 yere granted for jertion of more than three y 'S, 29 for intolerable crueity, 15 for hab- itual intemperance, 15 for adultery, one for intemperance and cruelty, and one for desertion and Intemperance. From this record it is apparent that New Haven is not as far gone on th “divorce evil” as some of our othef old New England cities.

Boston has an Animal Rescue league with a membership of 9,952, employs 20 men and women picking up homeless dogs and cats and giving them homes.

The league also maintains a boarding stable and a country place of rest for old broken- down horses. It seems as If some of the dogs must have been overlooked, but there is no indication that the cats are not being - carefully looked after.
