The attorney thought that, while the case was of a minor character, some action_should be brought againast Os- ier,; Judge Robinson ordered a capias to be ed and Osier brpught before the colirt Friday to show cause why he did not put in an appearance on Wednesday.

Ithe"case of state vs. Alice Skinner, charged with attempt at arson..at Hampton, on August 18, 1909, was taken up before Judge Robinson and a jury at 130 o'clock in the after- noor. Defendant had previously entered a plea of guilty to breaking and_enter- ing the residence .of Harriet Colburn at Clark’s Corners, Hampton, on the 18th of August, 1909, and -the larceny thefefrom of some $59 worth of goods. Accused is charged with an attempt to burn the home of Mrs. Colburn. + The jury was impanelled to hear the e and pass upon the case, as Edwin B. Latham® and ‘Ed- ward S. Billings, Windham; James Lowry, Brooklyn; George T. Crane, Chaplin; George W. Saunders and William H. Harris, Pomfret; John E. Hibberd, Woodstock; Frank Rich, Plainfield; T. D. Chandler, Hampton; Nelson Bennett, Putnam. Attorney Charles A. Capen of Wil- limantic appeared for the accused. State Attorney Charles E. Sarls pros- ecufed. Harrfef Colburn testified to owning the house in Hampton that was buf- glarized and broken into during the month of August while she was away, for she found things fbadly littered up upon her return. She said, that there was oil upon the floor, in’ four of the rooms, and in one room there was a basket full of carpet rags sat- urated with oil. Mats upon the floors were also soaked with oil and some had been turned up and she found burned matches. near them. At the time she went away the windows were nailed down and all the doors nailed up except the front one, which was locked with a key. Upon her re- turn the house showed evidences of having been broken into and a num- ber of things. stolen. E Bureaus and trunks had been over- hauled and silk dresses and the best of everything taken away. Upon going upstairs great disorder confronted her. A suit case, watch, knife, shire- walsts, dainty aprons and other small articles were stolen. She said that no one person could hawe carried off all the things that were stolen at one trip. From the upset appearance of the house she believed that whoever did the job had taken plenty of time about it. Patrick Navin of Hampton testified to having known Mrs, Colburn for about twenty-five years and that there was 110_one living at her house during the month of August. He testified that he had gone over there early in Sep- tember and found oil on the floors, mats and carpets, and that there was also oil-soaked rags and that up- stajrs everything was hit or miss and scattered all about. Trunks and boxes were open and their contents strewn around generally on the floor. Wit- ness had seen the accused in Hamp- ton on August 15, being on the high- way at the time.. He next saw her in court at Hampton when she said that she had entered the house by means of a key and stolen the goods, Saw Three Burned Matches. On_cross examination witness said that he only saw three burned match- es on the floor. Mrs. Minnie Millerd of Mansfield tes- tified that she had visited the @olburn houseSunday, Sept. 5th. The main points in her’ testimony corroborated that of Mrs. Colburn with reference to ofl on the floor. Had noticed three burned matches. The mats were singed, but not particularly damaged. John H. Fitts, deputy sheriff and se- lectman, put upon the stand, said that he had attended the justice's trial and that the accused had- said that she went into the house by the aid of a key.. When he was taking her to jail he said that the accused had not fold him that she did not try to burn the house but had spilled the oil. She had told him after being put to plea fn the superior court that she was going to plead guilty to this charge, but did not READ! yourself, Our aim is to give smallest price possible and obtainable. has the agency for the Traveters Lute | A few of our Specials, then call at our store and see for you the best goods at the give you the best service 50c Underwear, Lined, for Men price 3%. * Our $1.00 Shirtwalst, yours for 79¢. 50c Overalls or Jumpers in muny.pi terns and in all sizes, as advertist 39c. 50c Working Shirts, our price 3%, Our All Silk Ribbons, worth per yard, your choice 2lc pes Jersey or Fleece- or = Children—Our d $1.00 Umbrellas, our price 89c. $1.00 and $1.25 Black Petticoats, your choice. 89¢.

YELLOW BLOCK To Be Torn Down—Lumber Will Be Sent to Niantic Camp Ground. Col. M. J. Wise, assistant quarter- master general, has completed his ar- rangements, as representative of the state, for the removal of the buildings on Armory square recently advertised to be sold. The buildings were offered for sale to the highest bidder and sey- eral offers were received. A. V. Wood- worth gets the stable for $25. Peter Casey of Dayville bought the old laun- dry building for $36.50 and Frank A. Davis the old bottling works building for $6. No biis were received for the old Yellow block. 3 All of the buildings are to be re- moved from the property of the state once and the land will probably be clear of shem by the end of this month. Mr, Woodworth will remove the barn across from the state preperty to ad— joining land which he owns. It is un- derstood that Mr. Casey and Mr. Davis will tear down their purchases for the lumber. ~The Yéllow block will also be razed by representatives of the state and the lumber the building contains will be sent to the state camp ground at Niantic. As soon as the buildings are out of the way the land “will be graded and seeded and by next sum- mer the vicinity of the armory will have undergone a dcéided change for the better. Other changes and improvements au- thorized for the armory include the in- stalling of a Tungsten lighting system to replace the service now inh use; painting the roof, interior and exterior of the building; probably new steel lockers and a set of azimuth Instru- ments and telephone system for use in practice range finding work. The plet- ting room will be at the left of the main entrance, In the room formerly used as a parlor. Many minor changes are to be made. It is probable that an ordnance ser- geant will be appointed to have the care of the building. The removals and alterations con- templated ‘will make the armory and its vicinity a sightly place and will give the members of the Thirteenth com- pany better quarters.than they conld ever hope to have had under other than state ownership, BROOKLYN’S OLD CHURCH To Be Used More Frequently if Rec- tor's Plans Are Carried Out. * Historical old Trinity, the second oldest Episcopal edifice in Connecticut, where slaves came to worship beside their masters, and within the walls of which services were held more than one century and a quarter ago, is again to come into more frequent use, This vlan was announced this week by Rev. Isaac Peck, rector of Trinity church, at_Brooklyn. Every year on All Saints’ day it has been the custom to hold service there, and in the’old but still substantial structure of hallowed memories, sur- rounded by the burial place of those who worshipped there in past cen- turies, the faithful of the Episcopal parishes in Brooklyn and Danielson have gathered to assist in a service that has always been more than ordi- narily impressive. Names familiarly assoclated with the history of Windham county are insep- arably connected with this church and are carved in the stones over the last resting places of the dead in the burial plots near by. There one may read the names of patriots, defenders of their country, clergymen, and of those who helped “wrest this fterritory from its wild, unbroken state and labored to make it the peaceful, prosperous country it is today. Its preservation and more fréquent use are matters that appeal to many and Mr. Peck’s proposal has been re- ceived with enthusiasm. Mr. Peck has but recently come to Brooilyn, suc- ceeding Rev. Samuel Jarvis, who has always taken a great interest in the church, a fact that was spoken of by Mr. Peck at the All Sains’ day service on Monday. The intent of the lattér is to perpetuate and extend the plan of Mr.~Jarvis' relative to the church. His desire is to reproduce in all exact- ness the pulplt formerly used there, or, if possible, to again secure the original. An exact likeness of the pul- pit may be seen in another very old church in Newport. Mr. Peck would also like to have reproduced several old settees that have been removed from the balcony of the church. The collection taken at the service on Mon- day was very generous and is to pe used for the purposes mentioned and others of a minor nature. Mr. Peck also announced, in con- nection with his plans for the more frequent use of the church, that some time in the spring he proposes to have an attractive service at the church at which several divines will be invited to assist, each having & part. BEGINNING OF END FOR INDUSTRIAL & MFG. CO. Mills at Danielson and Mystic At- tached Wednesday—Many Creditors in Eastern Connecticut Likely to Lose Total Investments. Acrisis in the affairs of the Tndus- trial and Manufacturing company, with a capital stock Hf $500,000, was precipitated Wednesday when two at- tachments for a total of $5,300 were placed upon the mills and all other property of the corporation, both in Danielson and in Mystic. Chief George M. Pilling placed the attach- ment in the interest of Frank A. Davis and Damase Boulias, hoth of Daniel- son, and both at one time officers in the company. The affairs of the com- pany are said to be in a state of utter chaos, and_its collapse inevitable. Dozens of Danielson people and scores of others in almost every town on the car line between Webster and Mystic are invelved through business tran- sactions with the promoters. of the concern, which came to Danielson bringing promises of doing great in- dustrial good. Two factories were built in Daniel- son and another in Mystic. They were to have been the home of thriving in- dustries, to be secured and located by the company, but the visionary dream and promises of unbounded prosperity that induced scores of citizens of Danielson and surrounding towns to buy old farm land cut up into build-. ing lots and sold to them at exorbi- tant figures havo long since vanished mouncing that a | Right food will correct the trouble. 2 Grape-Nu'ts is a predigested, scientifically made, pure food, that nour- ishes and strengthens the weakest stomach. “There's a Reason” for GRAPE-NUTS Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich. A physician of Galion, O., says: “For the last few vears I have been a sufferer from indigestion and al- though I have used various reme- dies and prepared foods with some bemefit it was not until I tried Grape-Nuts that I was completely cured, “As a food it fu pleasant and agreeable, very nutritious and is digested and assimilated with very little, effort on the part of the di- gestive organs. “As a nerve food and rest it has no and, as such, i clally pted to students other brain workers. It contains the elements necessary for the sbuilding of nerve tissue, and by so doing maintains an equilibrium of waste and repair. It also enriches the blood by glv- ing an increased number of red olood corpuscles, and in this way strengthens 21l the organs, provid- ing a vital fluid made more nearly perfect. 1_take great pleasure in recommenfling its use to my patients, for I value it as a food and know it will benefit all who use into air and the expected golden har- vest will never be. Secured $80,000 in Danielson. Estimates of the amount of money the company secured in Danlelson run as high as $80,000. Manufacturers, business men,. clergymen, laborers, the rich and the poor, bought lots or stock, the latter now conceded to be abso- lutely worthless, and others are in- volved through loans to the company to such am extent in some instances as to bring them to the verge of bank- duptey. The present condition of a- fairs of the company present such tangled sample of sky-finance as has never been presented in eastern Con- necticut. Exchanged Promises for Money. It was said Wednesday night by a person familiar with the affairs of ‘the | company that they have, at different times, secured loans involving trust companies and banks in Maine and Vermont. The company made both money and promises in Danielson, ex- changing the latter for the former. On March 15, 1807, they sold $15,000 worth of their preferred, non-cumula- tive stock to Danielson investors. This was only one of the deals the Daniel- son people were worked for. Two columns would not contain the whole story. The dividends were paid on this stock regularly at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum, until July, 1908, when they were passed, as they have been since. In March, 1907, the assets of the company were given as $110,390, and their liabilities $74,178, showing a net surplus of $36,102. The company, of which L. J. Coburn and Roy D. Judd were the active heads, have made money in Danielson. Creditors in Hopeless Condition. When business slumped here, the company went to Mystic, increased the capital stock from §150,000 to $500,000, became heay- borrowers and were finally involved to such an ex- tent as to be unable to extricate themselves. The action taken Wed- nesday has been expected for months and means a receivership and the wind up of a long drawn-out struggle to make good. The situation in which the creditors find themselves is said to be an almost hopeless one, as it is expected that there will be little or no equity when -final settlement is made. PUTNAM Adventist Pastor Accepts Rhode Island Call—Funeral of Thomas Smith— Device for Purifying Air at High School. Dr. Edward F.

The bearers were the four broth- ers of the deceased—James of Putnam, Cornelius of Norwich, John of New York and Peter of Wooddtock.

Rallroad company near the Putnam Foundry company's plant, for the accommodation of the new coal, wood, lumber and ice firm recently or- ganized in this city. Germ-Destroying Device for the High School. ‘The members of the school board of the town of Putnam have authorized the installation of a new device in the Israel Putnam school for the purpose of preventing the spread of dlsease germs and for purifying the atmos- phere. The device consists of a porous clay-like cone Into which is poured a ferm destroying liquid, which gradual- ly evaporates, and has the beneficial effects noted throughout the room. The spread of colds is one of the things that the use of the system, tried with success In other places, will prevent. The cost of the plant Is about $100.
