Wilcox for the theft of chick- ens from Jeffreys Potter of South Kingston, is Abe Smith, a resident of Providence. His team jeft in the road when Tie and his twe. companions took to the woods, has been identified, and Abe himself was seen to emerge from the woods Thursday morning, but dodged back before any of the sherIff's posse could capture him. Sheri Wil- cox expected to have him on custody by Friday morning. Abe with his own horse and wagon ad been in the employ of Samuel Leanski, a Plerce street junk dealer, for several weehs, and it is presumed located the chicken coeps to be visit- ed while plying. his vocation as 2 junk collector. Tt is believed that Abe Smith and his associatés, George Price and William Lages, are the gang that have visited hencoops in Westerly, includ- ing that of Walter P. Dixon, when fifty fowl were taken from his flock. There was an impertant question raised in the trial of Joseph 8. Grills of Westerly, charged by Giachinno Spenatto of New London, with embez- zling $600 from him. The case had progressed to a peoint where the state rested, when Mr. Aldrich, associated with Judge Swaeaeney for defendant. moved that Judge Brown of the su- perior court, where the case was on trial at Kingston, direct the r to return a verdict for defendar@ . Mr. Aldrich raised the point that there had been no intent to embezzle shown in the evidence, and that it was not sufficient to declare the defendant guil- ty of embezzlement, , Assistant Attorney General Cross argued that by the entry on the bank book to the effect the $600 was to he sent to Rome it became a special charge trust upon Grills, and his fail- ure to carry out that trust made him gullty of emhbezzlement. Judge Brown stated to the jury that the legal question presented was .of such importance that/he desired to ex- amine the law before deciding the point raised. Subsequently the judge decided against the motion_of Mr. Al- drich and the trial proceeded. John DiFonti changed & plea of not guilty in a liquor nuisance case to nolo contendre. He was ordered to pay_a fine of $100 and Nosts and be confined in the Kingston jail for six months. The mahslaughter case against DiFonti, charged with selling wood alcohol whiskey, that caused the death of Michael Riley, was continued to the November term of court. _John Cisco pleaded nolo to a like indictment and went to the Kingston Jait for six months and will pay a fine of 3100 and costs. The manslaughter case against Cisco, charged with sell- ing poisoned whiskey to Daniel Sulli- van, was continued to the November term. -] iam Stimson pleaded nolo to an ment for liquor nuisance, and fined $100 and costs and sentenced to thirty dayvs in Kingston jail. ind Antonio. Salemno, who pleaded nolo contendre to a charge of keeping li- quor for sale, at a session of the court, over a year ago, violated his promise to get out of the business, and was called up for sentence. He was ordered to pay a fine of $20 and costs and serve ten days in the Washington county jail. Augustus Larson, who some time ago \pmadea nolo contendre, was called up for sentence. Ile was fined $20 and costs and committed to ten days in the Washington county jai The liquor case against Frank La- valley was continued to the November term of court.

The Waterbury beard of education is being urged to include in its budget for the coming 1 an extra appropria- tion for the establishment of three rooms for back rd childfen, in schools in the center, the eastern and Brooklyn =€ltxt;n= of the city. The matter will be threshed out later by the members of the board. There is a difference of opinion as to the best way to attain the ends desired. The establishment of rooms for backward children, who are not dwfective, but have lagged in th studies through illness or for some other reason, is one way. The other is by the em- ployment of an extra teacher in each sehool building who shall spend her whole time in the warijous rooms giv- ing individual instr ion to the pupils who have fallen behind the rest of the class. Supt. of Schools Berlin W, Tinker, when asked for his deas upon this matter. said that he was in favor of the employment of special teachers, one for each school building. He con- sidered it much the better way. a way likely to be productive of more bene- ficial results in the case of the pupil who would be likely to make greater progress. ‘The idea of the special room for backward pupils was sub- ject to the objection that it differen- tiated the pupils, who .were placed in the rooms, from the rest of the chil- dren in the school. It placed upon them the stigma of being less bright than their companions. W©nder ordi- nary circumstances it would be liable to strike a deadly blow at the child’'s ambition and instead of enabling the child to make more progress: would amount to a handicap. Superintendent Tinker 'said that he was not in favor of the room for ba vard children, New Haven Road Agents. have been appointed as follows: S. Bird. agent, Bartow, N. Y.. Shore 1 division; W. O.
