Burial was in St. Pe- ter's cemetery, Hebron. Funeral Di- rectors Elmore & Shepard of this éity were in charge., MUMMIFIED BODY FOUND In Attic of Clark House at Columbia —Been There Since 1900. Arthur T. Kelley Going to Cushing Academy. Arthur T. Kelley, Windham High's best athlete .in years, is planning to enter Cushing l?demy at Ashburn- ham, Mass., late this fall and will there finish his_preparation for Dartmouth college. Kelley is the best amateur pitcher in eastern Connecticut and a left hander and is a crack basketball expert, being one of the mainstays of Windham'’s great five for the past four years., He is a good football player and could easily make an end or half- back on a college eleven should he make the effort. His pitching stunts have been the marvel of the nines in this vicinity for miles around and Cushing can count herself very fortu- nate in securing such a worthy suc- cessor to her premier athlete, Flaherty, who pitched her to victory so often. Columbia is excited over the discov- ery of the dead body of a baby in-the attic of ‘a house that has been inhab- ited up to within a week, known as the Charles Clark place, situated about one-half mile southeast of Columbia lake, on a cross road. Willlam Marshall, a New Yorker, recently purchased the house. Wednes- | day afternoon he thougnt he would g0 over the place and look around and clean up a bit. During his rambles about the old farm house he went to the attic and there in a closet was an apparently new satchel. After much difficulty he pried it open and took_ from it a common shoe hox. Upon Hpening the box he saw a bandle of: old papers and unwrapping them found the dead body of a baby. It was pret- ty well dried up and indicated that it had been in the box for some time. There was no great odor and the body appeared to be the form of a prema- ture child. . Mr. Marshall notified First Select- man L. E. Winter, who notified Medi- cal Examiner Pendleton of Hebron, but was unable to get him, so he called in Medical Examiner William L. Higgins of South Coventry. He examined the body and gave as his opinion that the body was that of a seven months child. ~ Medical Exam]l- ner Higgins notifled Coroner Robert H. Fisk of Stafford, but was unable to get in touch with him up to a late hour Thursday afternoon. First Selectman Winter has the body in charge, pending further investiga- tion of the case. The house where the satchel was found has been occupied for some_ ten or a:dozen years by Mr.” and Mrs. Charles Clark, an aged couple, and a sort of a niece, who has heen keeping house for them and taking care of Mr. Clark, who has been in failing health for some time and about a week ago was committed to Brewslers Neck hospital at' Norwich. Dirs. T. R. Park- er and C. E. Simonds of this city ex- amined him about three weeks ago. Mrs. Clark, when the family broke up about a week ago, went to the home of Emil -Hennequin, a neighbor, who lives close by on the same cross- road, to stay a few days, but expects to go shortly to New Britain to make her home in New Britain. The girl in the case is supposed to be Flossie: Edgeton, daughter of an adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clark. Her parents died about a score of years ago. She has led such a life at times that Mr. Clark would not tolerate her presence in the household and frequently had to order her from it. During the past nine or teg years she had been living there with her grandparents, when they would permit her. A resident of the town stated on Thursday afternoon that for a number of years she had run a house that was a disgrace to any town, although the old couple were in nowise to blame. A few years since Miss Edgeton went off down Derby and Shelton way for a time, but came back. A few years ago she lived with a man in this city for a while. She has not been seen since the family broke up and no trace of her whereabouts can be found. Mr. Marshall makes the state- ment that Flossie told him: “You may find a gold mine in the attic.” The papers found wrapped about the body were those of Derby, Shelton, and a New Haven publication and bore the date of 1900. The satchel bore the name of a dealer in Birmingham. Mrs. Clark said that she knew ab- solutely nothing about the case, but intimated that she was of the opinion that Flossie could throw some light upon the affair. Tt is the belief that the body has been hid all these vears in the attic, the papers found tending to prove the fact. Attractions for the Fair. Weather favering, the Willimantic fair will be the best in history. The speed horses are arriving earlier than ever this season. A carload came in Thursday morning and nine in the evening, five from Worcester, Mass., and four from New York, among which are some of the really fast steppers of the eastern circults. Another race has bheen added to the list, making six in all, as follows: 2.19 pace or trot, 2.22 pace or trot, 2.20 pace (stake), free to all, pace or trot, 2.25 trot (stake), 2.35 (stake). The local association has decided to hang up a purse for a Jocal race that will surely be the event on the racing card. The race will be some day of the fair to be decided later. T. R. Sadd, owner of Billiken; Louis N. Dondero, owner of Donnybrook, and M. H. Jones have signified. their intention to start their horses in this race, and James Brown, owner of Robert S., John Cur- ran, owner of County Beater, and oth- ers will in all probability also enter their horses. Secretary Frank P. Fenton stated that the committee was in communica- tion with a balloon owner and that f* was the management’s intention to have an ascension each day of the fajr. Automobile Club Has Membership of Eighty. The Willimantic - Automobile club entered five new members upon its books at ‘its last ‘medting, making a total mémbership of eighty. The vear started with twenty-seven members, Samuel Chesbro and F. H. Elmore were appointed a committee to arrange for a fall outing for the ciub: The roads committee has eight large double cross roads signs that are to be erected in prominent places about town and will be of great help to tourists.

Masonic hall Thursday evening: A e S N very enjoyable evening was passed hy Squabble Over Cement. those present. o Contractor Langefeld commenced to tear up Main street Thursday mern- ing to get same in readiness for pav- ing the street. The central portion of the city was therefore quite a busy. place for a time and wunusuallv so when Chairman Gelinas of the stand- ing committee on streets started to teil the contractor a few things about the kind of cement.that should be used. The alderman thought that Atlas .ce- ment should be used, and the contrac- tor had bargained for Edison, which is a standard cement, and it had al- ready arrived in a large quantity. . The argument became somewhat heated until the contractor told the alderman very forcibly what he could do. Ce- Various Notes. Mrs. Lottie Ella Gilman and Mrs. Kathleen Bernard attended the state fair at Charter Oak park Thursday. James FHealy of Chaplin was the guest of his nephew, Robert O. Snow, and family Thursday.

Two Men Since Affray at Christmas Located in Derby and Ansonia. The stabbing affray and assault case that caused so much excitement in the lower village Dee. 25, 1907, when fiye men were badly cut up, bids fair to be cleared up. There were seven men implicated, the five that were stabbed and two others, who made their escape. The five were brought before court but were discharged for lack of evidence. The police have been on the watch ever since for the two who escaped and Thursday Captain Richmond brought them back to this city from Derby. One was taken in Ansonia and the other in Derby, on “information for- warded by the loeal authorities. The men now in the police station are Wasyl Dzwonezyk, who was found in Ansonia with his wife and little girl, and Kodrat Gran, who was caught in Derby. The former has been to the old country and returned about four months ago, and the other has been down in Jersey. One of the fellows has a ‘bank account totalling some $500 and the other is also said to have a good wad. Dzwonezyk's wife went out and endeavored in vain to obtain bail for her husband, and both will be given a Everything was a Three., George L, Nevins, a prosperous re- tail drug merchant of Jersey Shore, Pa., is spending a few days in Phila- delphia on the way home from Atlan- tic City. He seems to have been pur- sued by a “No. 3 hoodoo” since he left home. So many times did the figure “3" bob up in the course of his vacation trip that Nevins could not help tak- ing notice. Leaving home, he traveled in Pull- man 103. The train was drawn by engine 223. The room to which he was assigned in a Philadelphia hotel was 23. The next day he went to At- lantic City in-car 63. e - Flls hotel room at the resort was 143. Sunday he went-'to a ball game and his rain check was 383.
