NORWICH BULLETIN. SATURDAY. DECEMBER 28, 1912 “Collns No In Court At Westerly | Wrestler Too Weak to Appear Against Royster—Case Con- tinued Another Week—Rose Embezzlement Case Goes Over—Carl J. Nordell and Miss Emma A. Parker Married. Atiorney Maximillan L. Lizotte; who, upop* complaint of Attorney Albert B. cpr:t.;-. formerly of Westerly, was dis- barred from the practice of his profes- Sion, petitigned the supreme court for 2 modification of the court's order. A reseript handed down Thursday denies and dismisses the petition. The de- cison concludes as follows: ,“The petition amounts to a motion for a rehearing upon the original charges and may be so considered. The grounds upon which the respondent’s motiof or petition is based do not em- ‘brace any new question which has not bean fully, carefully and at length con- sidered by the court. We were satls- fled.-from the testimony and admis- sions of the respondent himself, to- gother with other undisputed testi- meny and facts, that an order of dis- ‘barment would not only be fully justi- fled, but that any other punishment would be inadequate. Under all of these conditions we cannot see how a rehearing could be profitable to the respondent, and the petition is there- fore denied and dismissed.” There was quite a gathering of men of leisure in the Third district court- room Friday, expecting to hear in de- tail the story of the stabbing of Bill Collins by Sam Royster. The crowd was disappointed when it was an- nounced that Mr. Collins was umable to appear in court and that the hear- jng would be continued for one week. As this fact was known to the court before the hour of opening word was semt to the jaller at Kingston not to bring the prisoner to Westerly. The assault occurred thres weeks ago and Collins has been practically confined to his bed ever since, only being able to sit up at intervals. While the pros- pects are favorable to recovery, the process Is very slow, but he may be able to appear in court next Friday. With the exception of a suit in civil action to recover for a month’s rent of $8 for a tenement, with James Burke as'plaintiff and James Blake defend- ant, in which judgment was given for plaintiff, with costs, no cases were tried at_the session. ‘When the embezzlement case against Peter Rose was called Judge John W. Sweeney, his counsel, announced that Rose, who had left Westerly, was re- turning, and asked that the case be continued for three weeks. Judge Williams granted the request. Not since the work of improvement in Westerly by the New Yerk, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company was commenced has the work been suspended for any cause for a period of .thres days in one week until the present week, and the delay just at this time is of but little consequence. There was no outside work done Tues- day, by reason of the snowstorm; Christmas day was observed, and work was held up Friday by rain. This worz has been in progress for over a year and is within about 2 per cent. of completion, mot including the grading between the eastbound rails and Rail- rpad avenue, but all this outside work will be compieted before the grass- seeding season.

Stylish Bookmarks. A woman who reads a great deal and who always keeps two or three | books going at the same time, hit upon the notion of using fashion pa- per ladies for bookmarks, the modish little personages being clipped from a fashion magazine that uses a heavy cream paper for its pages. The idea proved so successful that now she makes paper doll bookmarks for her friends, providing each little paper lady with a back of white cardboard and sometimes touching up the fig- | ures with transparent photograph col- ors. #Dark Stars.” Scattered through space are innu- merable stars that give forth very lit- tle light or heat. FEither they were bright and glowing like the myriad beautiful, or in the course of count- less ages the heat they once possessed has radiated away from them into | the depth of space, and now they are, | as their name describes them, “dark stars.” ¥ Their Names Against Them. Werare believed to believe ‘that An- anias left no descendants, but there were people so like him as to bear the name of Anania, or again Ax:a.uiull.\1 Their descendants have to bear the brunt of ancestral duplicity.

The latest circulation scheme of & Berlin newspaper is the engagement of two physiclans to attend gratuit- ously upon their yearly subscribers.
