Joseph Griswold Perkins, a | veteran of the War of the Rebeliion, | died early Monday morning at his | residence in Old Lyme. Born in | 1838, General Perkins was the son of Thomas Shaw Perkins of New Lon- don and Mary Ann Griswold of Black Hall. Much of his youth was spent | in New London and it was there that | he prepared for college. Graduating from Brown university (then college) at Providence, he went to Hartford and there studied law and was admit- ted to the bar. But before he had settled in regular practice came the outbreak of the Civil war and Pres- ident Lincoln’s call for volunteers. General Perkins was among the | very ‘first to respond to the call to | arms, going to the front with a com- pany of the old First Rifles; Having served through this term of enlist- ment, he returned to Hartford and was temporarily attached to the staff of Governor Buckingham. Upon the organization of the First Connecticut Heavy artillery he was offered the command of one of the batteries, and having accepted the office, served throush the various campaigns of the Army of the Potomac and in the de- fénses of Washington. When, in 1863, negroes were enlisted in the Union armv and white officers were needed for the colored regiments, he was ap- pointed lieutenant-colonel of the 18th United States colored troops, and it was while in command of this regi- ment that he won the brevet rank of brigadier general, for his gallantry at the affair of the Crater before Peters- ;);Gr‘g. Va., on the thirtieth of July, After the close of the Civil war General Perkins went with his regi- ment to the Mexican border and was for some time stationed in Browns- ville, Tex. Mustered out in 1867, he returned to Connecticut and settled in Old Lyme. He married there in 1869, Louisa_Griswold, daughter of Richard Sill Griswold, who, with his three children, Mre. Wolcott G. Lane of New York, Mrs. George Griswold and Gris- wold Shaw Perking of Old Lyme, sur- vive him. General Perkins served one term in the state eenate and had at different times held many of the town offices in Old Lyme. Mrs. Charles H. Davis. | Phebe Jane Chesebro, widow of | Charles H.

Chute of Mystic collapsed ; | when the jury which had been con- | in a nervous breakdown in the superior court here on Wednesday afternoon, sidering the evidence against him in the charges of indecent assault upon young girls in Mystic, brought in a verdict that he was guilty in seven of the eight counts in the complaint. On one count they found him not guilty. The accused received the verdict with apparent composure as he stood in front of the clerk’s desk, but he sat down immediately afterwards in one of the chairs in . front of the prisoners pen. Here he was seen suddenly to srow deathly pale, his eves closed and his head fell over sideways.. Before he could topple out of his chair his con- dition was notiged, and he was sup- ported by the court attendants, while others secured restoratives, which were administered. In the ante room he was seen by Dr. Rush W. Kimball, who found that the trouble was ail in ner- vous shock and that the man's heart did not seem to be affected, as had been feared when he first collapsed. Judge Shumway was informed of the man's condition, making it inadvisable to sentence him then, and the judge adjourned court till this morning ‘at 11 o'clock, when it is expected- State’s Attorney Hull will move for sentence. The maximum sentence for indecent assault is 15 years in state's prison. of Mystic Breaks Down in Superior Court Ou of El'fgl}t Couant ‘Able to| stua that ! The doctor informed Sheriff Brown that the prisoner hardly needed hos- pital attendance, but that he would hardly be able to walk to jail, so that he was taken up to the Cedar street { institution in a conveyance. At the jail Wednesday evening it was reported that Chute was still very nervous aand downcast, and that he complained that his heart was troubling him. Case Occupied All ‘Day. The .arguments, judge’s charge and the deliberations by the jury occupied all the time of the court on Wednes- | day. Attorney Hewiti opened for the state, and was followed by Attornevs Denison and Geary for the accused, and Judge Shumway began his charge to the jury at 2.02, occupying 38 min- utes. The jury was qut about an hour. Ons More Mystic Case. Nathan Newbury of Mystic yet re- mains to be tried on charges similar to those on which Chute was convicted. Mr. Newbury has been in court through the trial of Chute, and it would be no surprise if he should decide to plead guilty In these cases, Mystic into such unpleasant notoriety in’ this session of the criminal court, there have been two convictions. One man has pleaded guilty, two of the ac- ,cused have skipped their bonds of 31,000, and two huve committed sui- cide. OPITZ MOVED UP IN PINOCHLE STANDING.

Many people have begn geard to say that they used creams ama lotions for vears without effect, yet or five or six days of Stuart’s Sfld - Wafers their complexions were perfectiy- £lear. ??\ “Stuart’s Calcium Wafers Are Simply Grand to Remove Pimples and All Skin Eruptions. It's easy to understand why. Creams and lotions only get at the surface, while Stuart’s Calcium Wafers go right into the blood and instead of a slug- gish deposit in the skin the impurities that caise skin diseases are destroyed in the perspiration that is exhaled through the pores in the form of invis- ible vapor. You'll never have a good complexion without pure blood, but you positively will have a fine, beauti- ful complexion if you use Stuart's Caleium Wafers. They contain no poisonous drug of any kind, are perfeotly harmless and can be taken with absolute freedom, and they work almest like magie. Cal- clum Sulphide, their principal ingredi- ent, is the greatest blood-cleanser known to science. : No matter how bad your skin may be, Stuart's Calcium Wafers will quickly work wonders with it. It's goodbye to blackheads. pimples, acne, boils, rash, eczema and a dirty “filled- up” complexion. You can get a box of Stuart's Calcium Wafers at any drug store at 50 cents a box, and you will be positively delighted with their won- derful effect —_— — — GOVERNMENT EMPLOYES NOT TO PAY PERSONAL TAX.

Letter carriers, mail clerks and oth- ers in the employ of the United States government are laughing because of the fact that, although they are liable to pay the 1912 personal tax, they can easily refuse to comply with the stat- ute and yet not be prosecuted for it. This situation was brought about in a queer turn of federal and state laws. Heretofore, cripples, federal em- | ployes and mariners were exempt from the personal tax because they had in the past been declared exempt from the military tax. This vear, however, the statute calls for everyone over the age of 21 being liable except those who have served in the military or students, and with it the postoffice and customs employes were under the impression that they would have to pay the $2 tax Federal { i this year. s Instead, it appears that there is a federal law which provides that no male in the employ of the government can be prosecuted civilly. As this law supersedes the Connecticut statute, there is little possibility that the t can be collected under the method now in vogue, although in New Haven City Attorney Booth has the matter under investigation.
