The Third district court, Judge Oli- ver H. Willlams, was occupled for two hours and a half Thursday, hearing the complaints brought by Chief of Police, ‘fhémas B Brown against John Albert Leroy Tucker and Angelo Longodeluc- ca, charged jointly with stealing chick- ens and separately with being idle and dissolute persons and without visible means of support. Both pleaded not guilty to the charge of stealing four chickens of the value of $4 from the hen ceop of ‘Willlam O. Plerce of 54 Plerce street, some time after midnight of last Tues- day. Chief Brown lestified that he had known the acoused for several years, | and was suspicious of their general a. Uons. Mr. Pierce reported the theft | of his chickens to the witness Wed~ | nesday morning and he made immedi- | ate Inepection of the premises. went to the home of Edgar Burdick in 2 lane off Plerce street, after be- ing satisfied that the chickens had peen taken thers as footprints in a patch of smow and drops of blood in- dicated that the chickens were taken to that house dtrect from the hen coop. He found two dead and unpicked chickens in the basement and indica- | tions of the killing and dressing of | other chickens. He then went up- wtairs and arrested Tucker and An- | gelo, the latter being asleep on a ounge, The chickens recovered were identified by Mr. Plerce, Ho | j; of age and was born in Scotland, com- ing to Westerly at the age of 26. was a member of the Westerly branch of the Stonc Cutters’ union, the Royal Arcanum and Congregational church.

James Potter's funeral was held fram his residence on the North Ston- ington road, Thursday afternoon, Episcopal_service being conducted by George W. Woodward in the absence of Rev. Willam F. Williams of Christ church. The remainder of the cere- monial, including the committal serv- ice at River Bend, was according to the Masonic ritual of Franklin lodge, | nearly fifty members being present, with Worshipful Master Albert H.

Everett Hoxie, representing the lodge, chapter and commandery of Westerly Masons, Local Laconics. morning at the home of her son Joseph in Lester street, In Thursday's Bulletin The witness said he made a second | trip to the Burdick house and found ' two more chickens in a dark cellar| off the basement, which were also | ddentifled @y Mr. Pierce. When he made his first visit there were blood- etains on the basement floor, but on | hie second visit he noticed that effort | hed been made to wagh away the blood | wtains, thess was found near the hencoop and | another in the Burdick yard. The heads of the other two were intact | with the neck broken. The witness | was positive that some of the foot- prints in the snow were made by the | shoes worn by Tucker, as they agreed in siae and one shoe was without a | heel, and the heel of the other shoe was almost wholly worn out on one | wide, | — | Both young fellows declared they | did not know anything about the theft | of chickens when questioned by the | witness after their arrest. When the chief called, Mre. Burdick was in the | Jutchen and Mr. Burdick was abed. Chief Brown testified to finding blood stains on the trougers of both prison- | ers and in response to queries Burdick | explained the presence of the blood | saying it came from a calf he had | butchered, while Angelo made no at- | tempt at explanation. | William O. Pierce gave testimony, and Edgar Burdick and his wife Min- nie aleo testified. This concluded the evidence in the chicken stealing case. T@wn Solicitor Harry B. Agard repre- sented the state and also in the cases that followed. Tucker was then arraigned upon complaint of being an idle and disso- | iute person, being without (mpln\m\‘nL\ and without visible means of support, | He pleaded not gullty. Tucker in his own defence testified | that he had been employed in various | ¥ the latter part of 1)(-' since then he had been | to get work. In response to uestions from Town Solicitor Agard, | Tucker said that for three nights prior | to his arrest he had “stayed out and " and had “stayed out nd before that time. He :mill stayed at Blackler's without permis- slon and said that he could have a home with his aunt if he desired, Angele Langolucca was arraigned on like complaint and pleaded not guilty, and the testimony was of practically he same tenor as that against Tucker. it | Judge Williams lectured the ac- cused and urged them to lead better lives, and to become a benefit | of a menace to society. Both v judged guilty on hoth complaints, For stz the chickens e: was sen- tenced to three months > Provi- dence county jail and to a fine of $20 and costs. On the « mplaint of idieness and no visible means of sup- po! Tucker was sentenced to months in the ho se of correction Angelo received a sentence of nine months to the s institution. William M.

If You Use a Harmless Remedy Made from Garden Sage. A feeling of sadness accompanies the dlacnvery of the first gray halrs which unfortunately are looked upon as her- alds of advancing age. Gray hair ,how- ever handsomo it may be, makes & pecson look old. We all know the ad- vantages of being young. Aside from tha good impression a youthful appear- &nce makes on others, simply knowing that you are “looking fit"gives one courage to undertake and accomplish things. So why suffer the handicap of looking old on account of gray hairs, ' when a simple remedy will give your hair youthful and color and beauty in a few minutes’ time? Most people know that common gar- den sage acts as a color restorer and scalp tonic as well. Our grandmothers used a “Sage Tea” for keeping their hair dark, soft and luxuriant. # In Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Reme- dy we have an ideal preparation of Sage, combined with Sulphur and other valuable remedies for dand. 7, itching scalp and thin, weak hair that is split at the ends or constantly coming out. A few applications of this valuable remedy will bring back the color, and in a short time it will remove every trace of dandruff and greatly improve the growth and appearance of the hair. Get a fifty cent bottle from your druggist today, and notice the diffe: ence in your hair after a few days’ treatment. All druggists sell it, under Ail Trolleys Lead To i narantee that the money will be re- funded if the remedy is not exactly as represented. good, 131 Main St. STONINRTON Borough Basketball Team to Play Sol- e Murher. siow of|diers—Westerly Visitors Dofeated at e urphey, wido !
