THIRTEENTH COMPANY Has ldeal Day for May Parade and Range Practice. The sharp crack of rifles, the dron- ing hum and spiteful spat of bullets and the clear notes of the bugles made music that tickled the ears of the coast artillerymen of the Thirteenth company Tuesday when they went out on; their rangs below Danielson for théir annual May parade.

Thurber fixed as the price of his free- dom, after a hearing at Brooklyn Tuesday afternoon. ' Baker pleaded not guilty to the ‘harges, but probable cause was found ‘nolding him. His arrest resulted from some good detective work on the parc of Jaller Alert 8. Iields, Dewitt Park and James Moran of the Jail force, Constable Edwin Bennett and State Policeman Robert Hurley of Hartford, who was called into the case. “Tracks in plowed ground in the rear ot the Pond house were followed and st, and picked up agags and again for ‘several miles until they finally Jed to the Baker home in Fomfret. A search\of the house brought to light a coat eaturated with kerosene and on the strength of this Baker was later arrested on ome of Fayetts Wright farms in Pomfret, where he had been working. The shoes that he had on fitted exactly into the tracis about the Pond house, these being so clear as to leave the imprints of the heelplates on Baker's shoes as additional evidence against him. The accepted motive for the charzes alleged against the prisoner is his de- sire to destroy the will of his father, Solomon Baker, who died in Brooklyn about three weeks ago, leaving a little valued at about $500 and about 3500 in money. Mr. Pond drew the will and it is bélieved that Baker was con- vinced that it was in the house. INJURIES FATAL. Archie J. Avey Dier After Railroad Aoccident. Mys.
