Whittall Rugs If you intend to buy a Rug for your house this Spring you want to buy a WHITTALL, for the simple reason that they are of such excellence in weave, construction, coler and design, that they are accorded the distinction of being a worthy rival of the luxurious rugs of the Orient, and they don’t cost any more than the thousand of cheap, unreliable rugs with which hun- dreds of homes are furnished. We are the sole agents for the Whittall Company, and Rugs cannot be bought anywhere eise in Windham County. Our Spring lot consist of PEERLESS, CHLIDEMA, TEPRAC, ROYAL WORCESTER, ANGLON INDIAN and ANGLO PERSIAN $25 to $55. THE H. G.

Norwich Father Sets Bad Example— Liquor Gets Two Other Men Into Trouble. There were threc cases in police court Saturday moring. Thomas O'Donovan, who said that his home was in Norwich and that he was keeping one daughter in a convent in Baltic and another in a convent in Hartford, was charged with intoxication. He was arrested on complaint of people re- sidlng on Fairview street Friday. He said that he was a steel polisher by trade and could not account for b presence on a veranda in this city Fri- day. He asked for leniency at the hands of the court. He said that he wag a widower. He was in such bad shape from the effects of alcohol that Judge W. A. Arnold sentenced him to fifteen days in county jail at Brooklyn to get himself in shape. James “Scope” Sullivan, charged with intoxication, told the court that he would go to work Monday and take the pledge if the court would only give him the chance. He admitted that he had done a lot of time in jail and was really tired of it. He sald he wanted to be a man and would cut out the liquor. Judge Arnold told him that he could hardly expect the court to do anything for him when he would not do anything for himself. Sullivan, when told said ‘That's true your Honor, and if I ever come before you again you ¢an do with me what you want.” Judge Arnold told him he was going to see if he was a man of honor. He imposed a sentence of thirty days and = suspended judgment for six months. “Now, said the judge, you are not on probation and it lies entirely with you.’ If you are seen going into a saloon the police are to take you in- to custody and then you will have to serve the sentence of thirty days.” Willie_Schuman, claiming that he was a Russian, charged with intoxi- cation and breach of the peace, arrest- ed Friday evening on complaint of Adam Gawjewski, a saloon keeper at the lower end of the city, was arraign- ed and pleaded guilty on the advice of friends. He was fined $6 and costs that were paid by his employer.
