DANIELSON - : Ceroner Bill Not Ready to Make Statement in Levine Case—Dr. A. E. Darling Had Practiced Over Forty Years—Thirteenth Company Return- e Neither Ceroner Arthur G. Bill nop Sheriff Preston B. Sibiey had any specific information to give out Fri- day relative to the investigation into. the death of Harry Levine, the little New York boy, who was found dead in & clump of brush in the town of Scotland, R 5 Coroner Bill gaid that his investiga- tlon may cover two weeks more, but it ig possible that it may be closed at any time. There are certain clues that are being followed and until these have been thoroughly investi- gated there will be hothing to be said about case, 7 .!h-'}a.slbley stated much the same shing and also that until certain evi- dence and circumstances surrounding the affair had been thoroughly inves- tigated just what was being done would “be known only to the officers working on the case. Mr. Sibley -said that ‘ojeich Bernal, the farmhand under suspicion, would be held at the jail in Brooklyn until the investigation is _completed. Bernal is not committed to the in- miftution as a prisoner, but he is le- gally held in custody there and there is no chance that he'will be released until the officers are fully satisfied that he is innocent of any connection with & crime that has shocked the people im this part of the state.

An Exciting Fourth of July . Representative Charles O. Thompson of Pomfret tells an interesting story to friends who ride out to Hartford with him of how, as long ago as 1822, a party of boys, of whom his father was a member hired one Fourth ot July morning an old qus yman living { in the vicinity to put several pounds of giant powder under one end of an enormous tilting rock, halanced on the edge of the high and precipitous cliff at Bolton Station and explode it, to see what the resuit would be. Ac- cording to Representative Thompson's story, and the evidence that still re- mains, said result was extremely sen- sational. The explosive hurled huge balancing rock, weighing proba- hly two score tons, over the edge of the cliff to the ground, nearly 140 feet below, and the terrific force of its im- pact with the earth split it in two parts, which still rest where they fell between the railroad track, which was not built then, and the old stage route, which might have been blockaded in- | definitely had not the falling mass shot over and beyond its course. Represent- ative Thomson is of the opinion that that Fourth of July celebration was the most exciting his father experienc- e Sale of Joslin House to Richard Mur- phy. Putnam people were interested Fri- day in the announcement that the Jos- lin house, at Webster. had been sold by F. J. St. Ciair to Richard Murphy, who has been th= clerk there for several years. The price paid was-$45,000. Mr. St Slair has had the hotel 3 years and has made a big success.
