FELLOWS, Street Commissioner. March 24, 1910, mar24d _—_— The end seems to be in sgnt in the Miller divorce case, which has occu- pied the attention of Judge Greene in the superior court for four weeks. It is thought the evidence thay be fin- ished wdl&lrnd the arguments made at some of time, but there remain several witnesses to be heard and it is possible that thn testimony will not be finished today. ‘There was a short cross examination of Frank Sautter at the opening of the court Wednesday morning and William H. Pierce was next called. He' is 21 and has worked for Mr. Miller on two different occasions. He recalled that on one Sunday night in 1905 Mrs. Miller was_ talking about immorality and Bible pictures. She finally got the pictures and said “There you are.” He saw the pictures and said they were immoral, but the latter part of his answer Judge Greene ordered stricken out. Mr. Miller .told her to put the book up, which she did. On the second time he worked for Mr. Miller Mrs. Miller told him he would have to sleep with Mr. Miller, as she could not attend to his room. ‘There was 3lso trouble over some johnnycakes and Mr. Miller led his wife into the sitting room after she had threatened to put the witness out of the house. He said that while sit- ting on a. rock where Mys. Miller could see him that she threw a basin of water on ‘his new coat and also had swept dust in his_face and shook a broom at him. Mrs. Miller laughed as she threw the water. The first time he was@there he complained because Mrs. Miller didn’t make his bed, and g,l['l the second time he Slept with Mr. iler from July 5 to Nov. 27. Mr. Miller never swore or used profane language to his wife. Fred M. Oat told of being at the Miller piace one day when Mrs. Miller threw water on to him as he was Wwatching the pigeons. She told him to g0 home and tell his mother about it. Found Fault All the Time. Mrs. Estelle Wheeler, sister of the defendant, testified that she visited at her brothér’s and about four vears ago his wife found fault about him contin- ually. She at one time said that he washed his own overalls. She had never told her brother, but -Mrs. Miller had intimated that Mrs. Wheeler would tell him. Mrs. Edith Miller, sister—in-law of the defendant, told of visits to_the Miller place and of statements by Mrs. Miller Tegarding her husband and his actions with the men. She told of talking with Mrs. Miller and telling her she didn’t believe all that she heard about the tongue fights. The witness has talked with Keisey Fil- more and he denied the stories. She heard Mrs. Miller order Filmore out of the house one day without any din- ner. Mrs. Miller had said she could put Mr. Miller in prison for his action with the boys. On one occasion she heard Mrs. Mil- ler say to Filmore: “I would have ha you in jail long ago if it was your old mother.” Kelsey Filmore Called. As the last witness of the day Kel- sey Filmore was called to the stand and testified for about three-quarters of an hou®. . He denied he ever told any indecent conundrums or used obscene language. While riding horseback’' he was thrown off and he broke his right arm and was obliged to carry it in a sling for some time. This was just before Thanksgiving. ANNIVERSARY OF NEAL DOW’'S BIRTHDAY. Observed by Anna M. Herr Y. W, C. . U, in ng Manne The observance of the anniversary Gen. Neal Dow’s birthday made an in- teresting programme on Tuesday eve- ning for the Anna M. Herr Y. W. C T. at their meeting in the Bill block. The prominent features in the life of General Dow were well brought out in a paper read by Miss Lillian Post. and in the remarks of Mrs, J. J. Fields, L. T. L. superintendent. His Quaker parentage, his taste for ath- letics in his school life, and his prom- inence in the Portland fire department, where he was chief for_a number of vears were emphasized. He allowed no liquor at the firemen's banquets while he was chief. He was also mayor of Portland, Me., and was a representa- tive from his district to 4he legisla- ture. He served gallantly in the civil war, Where he was taken prisoner and served some time in Libby prison. Aft- er a lifelong fight in the prohibition cause, he died at about the age of 90. Miss Harriet G. Cross, president of the W. C. T. U., was present at the meeting, and in her remarks urged the importance of more silver medal speaking contests. The legion, how- ever, showed a strong sentiment for a membership contest, as a means of increasing interest in the organiza- tion. There is to be a silver medal speak- ing contest, with six contestants, four girls and two boys, on Friday evening in Preston chapel. WOMAN BURNED TO DEATH IN HER KITCHEN. Mrs, Lyman Edwards Found Dead, With Clothing Afira, by Her Hus- band. Not until Wednesday morning was \Hu Expenenee Out on tbe Farm. In the January follow- | ing Mrs. Miller tried go 10 bed one night Mr. ller allowed Later \'rrdon father told him to do it . don said “T1l kill him.” plied that there would be no anr.lnd Mr. Miller re- his father with The father took it away from | him and shook him up.- “Old Brute of a Husband.” Soon after Mrs. Miller returned and : “Youll get it now, yon'n get it someone is coming.”. “Let them come if they want to,” said Mr, Miller. Dr. Manwhrring came and asked what the matter was -.nd ww this meant. Mrs. Miller rej means| that T've got an old u n! -hus— bana; he's nearly killeg Gurdon.” Gur. don said he only had a headache and then Mrs. Miller and Dr. Manwarring went _up stairs, Mrs. Miller saying: “Oh, I wanted you for me.” The witness never heard Mr. Miller using any profane language that night or any time about the house. The witness saw Mrs. Miller strike Mr. Miller twice in the face with her fist. Put Cottolene on His Face. “Phe morning following the witness was washing up when Mrs, ~Miller came out of the pantry with some em.- tolene on a knife and she danwd his face. He told her “I 5 oot again Til smash you” “Do. it % you dare, hit me, you sore eyed monkey, you miserable wretch,” was she reply of Mrs. Miller. Thereupon he struck her in the face and it made her nose bleed. She called Mr. Millers’ atten- tion to what he had done and he said: “You ought not to have dared him.” The witness told Mr. Miller that he knew he ought not to have hit her and wouldn’t do it again. This trouble was the result of an in- cident of the night before. Mrs. Miller and Gurdon had been out. Those at home had been eating some oranges and there was a plate on the table with some orange peel on it. As Mrs. Miller came in the witness held out the plate and asked her if she would have a nol e. She struck the plate, knocking it out of his hand and against the stove, where it was broken, and she said “Ill kill you,” and dared him to put another piate up before her. “What did you do?” asked Attorney Hull. “I put up another plate,” replied Fil- more, which caused a snicker to go around the court room. - To Attorney Hull the witness said he meant the matter only as a pleasantry, but this was ruled out. The witness declared that Mr. Miller did not say to him, after he struck Miller, “Good enough, you have given her.just what she needed,” and the witness denfed that he ever said he would knock her down if he had to g0 _to state prison for it. While the direct testimony was be- ng taken court adjourned at 4.30 o’clock until this morning at 10 o'clock. Attorney Hull said he should try to complete the testimony for the defend- ant this morning and Attorneys Des- mand and Browning thought if that was so the evidence might be complet- ed today. It is probable that the ar- guments will be made at the conven- jence of the court, ar Judge Greene goes to New Haven to hold court next week. This morning at 9 o’clock the deposi- tion of Miss Woodward is to be taken at the courthousey REFORM MOVEMENT ON ' IN NORTH STONINGTON. Lafayette Main to Address Townsmen Before Special Town Meeting is Called. On Wednesday The Bulletin received a letter from Lafayette F. Main re- garding an address he is to make to the citizens of North Stonington pre- ceding the special town meeting this week. In his letter he writes “Satur- day, December 26, 1910,” but it is not believed he would have issued his Iit- erature so far in advance, and it is probable that he meant March instead of December. The letter is as follows: “Lafayette F. Main says he considers it will be for the interest of all the legal voters of the town of North Stonington to be present at the special town meeting on Saturday (Dec. 26, 1910), and if they will get together at 12 o'clock he will be there to give a lecture for the benefit of the people who must pay a 17 mill tax on a dollar. He will then explain what the meeting was called for and also what benefit can be derived from the same and says he will be able to show" to the people some facts to prove to them that he is working with a free good will for the benefit of the citizens of the town of North Stonington. He further says this meeting will decide whether we are working for the benefit of our children that we are bringing up to live in the town of North Stonington or not. Don't miss being on hand to protect your property for your chil- dren you leave behind to fight the battle of life alone. Remember the day, Saturday, Dec. (?) 26, 1910, at 1 p. m., for the meeting.

Store losed Good Fiday it generally known that Mrs. Maria Mitchell Edwards, wife of Lyman Ed wards, of the Wheeler district, Ston- ington, had been burned to death late Tuesday afternoon at her home. They lived on the W. H. Moss farm, where they moved three months ago, going there from Lebanon. Mrs. Edwards was 38 years of age and a native of Groton. Mr. Edwards had not been out of the Thouse a quarter of an hour when the fatality occurred. He was cupting and noticed smoke coming from e kitchen window, and, hurrying to the house, he found it filled with smoke and his wife dead on the fioor. The smoke was So dense that at first he could not locate his wife and she made no outcry. After the kitchen door had been open for a few seconds the smoke cleared away so that he could see her form lying on the floor. iMr. Edwards tore the clothing from her body to prevent her from being more seriously burned, but it was t0o late, as she was badly burned and her hair was singed from her head. Mr. Edwards summoned _assistance from the home of Allen Harvey and John Ripley, but nothing could be done, as she was dead Medical Examiner Stanton of Ston- ington visiteg the Edwards home Wed- nesday morning and viewed the re- mains. He attributed the cause of death to aceidental burning. Dr. Stan- ton found that the woman had not been in her right mind for the past three or four days.

Main expects to-be there and help to lead the reform movement. One of the North Stonington voters said regarding the address that Lafayette would not be given a hearing, as it was planned to adjourn the meeting before he and his followers even knew what was doing.
