At the time the collision the 0 truck was headed west on the right side of the road and the horse was going the ame di tion. The animal was not very fast but it made no effort to turn out as it approached the auto truck. probably due to the fact that the slippery pavement m its foot- | ing uncertain When the animal struck the auto truck one of its fore- feet, got caught in the chain The auto truck was immediately stopped and pushed b 'k by several who wit- nessed the accident and the horse's foot freed.

State Policem: Downing and Vireill caught Dimerio, Dimerio is the last of a quartet of Italian highwaymen. Joseph Fiero and Frank Carro are serving state prison terms. Philip Faraci, who turned state witness, fared better and is at liberty. Dimerio escaped after the commission of the crime and al- though officers were hot on his trail three or four times had not been taken into custody until Thursday. The holdup, for which the Italians were arrested, was at 4 a. m. on Sun- day, Aug. 4, 1912, Melville Mason and William Messenger, driving along the road toward the Niantic station, were held, up by the Italian gang. Mason got out of the wagon and made a fight with Stones from the roadway. Dimerio, it i3 alleged. had a revolver, which was fired point blank at Mason four times. “ The shots were fired so close to Mason that the powder burned his clothing. Three of the cartridges, he believed, were blank, as had there HIGHWAYMAN CAUGHT Mike Dimerio Arrested In New York —On; of Four Who Held Up Melville Mason And William Messenger Last August | of Faraci, as in the dark Mason and ;:vx,“ N Arrest. tainly have hit him. At the fourth shot Mason recelved a bullet in the abdomen. His recovery in time to ‘appear against the ‘men insured their conviction. Fiero and Carro are serving terms of from five to ten years in state prison, imposed at the September term of superior court. Faraci, who turned state evidence, charged Di- merfo with the shooting of Mason and he was sought eagerly by Sheriff Brown and Deputy Sheriff Tubbs. Di rectly after the holdup Dimerio es- caped. Carro and Fiero were arrested in New Londom and Faraci in Bast Lyme within- 24 hours after the hold- up. The conviction of the men was obtained only through the testimony Messenger could not sec well enough to identify their assailants. Once Dimerio was located in New York and escaped before his capture could be effected. The state police took up the case and had found a trail leading to Dimerio outside New York city. He got out of that locality a month ago, when State Policeman Downing was in pursuit, but the chase was continued and with Officer Virel- I's assistance he was caught. The captors are arranging for the extra- dition of Dimerio. FRESH ARRIVALS OF THE BROWNTAIL MOTHS. Cluster Seen on Chelsea Savings Bank Building on Thursday. Fresh arrivals of the browntails, which first came to this city Tuesday evening and were discovered Wednes- day morning, evidently came here Wed- nesday night, as the Cliff street side of the Chelsea Savings bank was spotted with them. on Thursday. Those that! had taken lodgment within reach were kized, but there were quite a number that were too high up to be reached by the swat-the-moth volunteers that | went after them. While Norwich and Westerly has had a visit from the moths, New London has not yet seen any of them down | that way, it is reported. It is possible | that they may be brought there, but | the tree warden's men, ins praying of | trees, which is being done continually, | are on the lockout for the insects, and ! they will be immediately extermihated | should they be discovered. Bxtreme | steps are being taken | | continually against pests of all kinds. Not only is Tree Warden Fuller alive to the possibilities of the de- struction of trees by moths and eetles, but he has taken steps towardt aving the trees from dying, on ac- count of the drought. Several days ago Mr. Fuller set a gang of men at work digging the earth from around all the small trees which have been and water was poured into the ground | and allowed to soak into the roots. | This precaution was absolutely neces-“ sory, or the drought would have prov~ en disastrous to the trees. After they | have been watered two or three times the earth will be put back and the | soil put in condition in which it was | found. Many persons taking pride in the | appearance of their premises and sur-| roundings, unaware of the intention | of the tree warden, were disturbed over | the digging up of the carth around the | trees and registered complaints. In | fact, in several instances persons d)d‘ not recognize the tree warden’s men | and called Mr, Fuller’s aftention to the | fact that men were digging up around| the trees and asking an investigation. | The reason was expiained to these per- sons, who not only accepted the ex- planation, but were profuse in their praise for the precaution against the destruction of the trees.

Through the state police Nathan Greenberg of Colchester has been dis- covered as the owner of the horse found abandoned on the dock of the Norwich and New York Propeller com- pany last Sunday evening by Humane Agent George H. Stanton. A son of Mr, Greenbersz came here Thursday and claimed the animal and after pay- ing charges took the horse back to the farm. Mr. Greenberg telephoned State Policeman Story that his horse was missing, stating that it had been taken from his barn some time between 12 o'clock Saturday night and 4 o’clock Sundav morning. The state policeman told Mr. Greenberg of the abandoned animal found on the dock Sunday eve- nine and Mr. Greenberg claimed own- ership. A farm hand who is supposed to have ieft the neighborhood Saturday night is suspected of taking the animal. ‘WOMAN SET AFIRE BY BURNING GREASE Mrs, John Diorio of Waterbury Serious Condition at Hospital. in Waterbury, Conn., July 17.—¥right- fully burned about the arms, face and upper part of the bedy, Mes.

Churches of New London Assesiation Send Delegates There in September. On July 1, the Baptist churches of the New London association entered upon a new fiscal year and the clerks will compile reports of what has been accomplished in the matter of mem- bership and finance for the past 12 months to be presented to the associa- | tion and to the Connecticui Baptist! convention. The New London association, which includes in its jurisdiction the ¢hurch- es between the Thames and the Con- necticut rivers and as far north as Colchester, will hold its annual meet- ing with _the Second church at Water- ford at Quaker Hill, beginning on the second Wednesday in September and continuing for two days. The pres- ent officers of the association are: President—Rev. Charles R. McNally of New London. Clerk anr treasurer—Rev. J. G. ‘Wanr of Bozrah, ' Assistant clerk—Rev. F, D.

The total membership last year in the association was 3,839 and the total value of church property was placed at $232.434.25. The total Sunday school enumeration was 2,626. There has not been any very ma- terfal change' in the numerical strength of the churches in recent years. The gain is very largely offset | by death and removal of members. | In some of the churches there has | been a revision of membership rolls | and a larg: numper of those who had not been Leard from for a long time ' were cut off.

The meeting which is to be held in September is the ninety-sixth anni- versary of the asseciation, which shows that it is a venerable body. The Norwich churches will all have delegates at the meetings and the fact that the Quaker Hill church is so accessible. by trolley will cause many besides the delegates to attend. There have been several changes in pastors during the past year and the Central First and Third churehes of Norwich and the First of Waterford will send new clergymen to represent them. member- from i AUTO SPILLED SOLDIERS IN THE ROAD Mallory Hill, Waterford, Six militiamen from the state en- campment at Niantic had a narro escape from death or serious injury Wednesday night when a runabout automobile of which they were occu- pants ran against a stone wall at_the side of the road on Mallory Hill, Wa- terford, and they were thrown out. The little machine, overloaded with the six militiamen was being driven down the hill when it skidded and ran against the wall with considerable iorce, the impact hurling the 'citizen soldiers to the road. 1907, in order to be able to administer the Rising legacy. The membership is made up of delegates of the church-| es, who are elected annually. As each Baptist church is an independent body the association can exercise no authority or Jjurisdiction, but its meetings afford an opportunity for the discusston of matter of interest to the denomination and the presentation of Baptist activities of various kinds. They also have a secial valus, enabling the delegates from different org; zations to meet under pleasant auspic. es and in that way prove very en- Jjoyable. It is customary for the church which entertains the associatlon to provide meals for the delegates and those who remain over night are fur- nished lodgings in the homes of the people. This Year's Sermons. The programme always Includes what I8 known as the annual sermon and missionary sermon, those who are to preach being designated the year For this year Rev. J. C. Ward has been selected to deliver the annual sermon, with Rev. George Ringrose as ulternate. The selection for the missionary sermon is Rev. Charles R. McNally, with Rev. Joseph A. Elder as alternate. It is customary each de- year to vote a part of the time ot a young | people’s rally, and the women’'s home and foreign missionary societies also have time allotted to them. Each church is expected to send a brief letter setting forth its condition and also a detailed statement of mem- bership and finances. Any church that fails to make a report for three years may lose its membership in the association.

The soldiers were strewn | all over the road. Several were under | the influence of liquor and soon the alr was filled with cries of the men who were thrown into a panic by the | accident. Many residents of that sec- tion were aroused by the calls for help and rushed to the scene of the acecl- dent. Dr. Joseph M. Ganey chanced to be passing in his runabout and he was stopped by the calls for aseist- ance. At first glance the sight of the men, nearly all of them prostrated in the ‘road, gave the impression that there had been a wholesale slaughter. With others attracted to the scene, the doctor, restored quiet and then gave each’of the men superficlal ex- | amination. Nearly all of them were bleeding profusely from cuts and bruises and other minor injurles, but the examination failed to reveal any | serious injurfes. This fact seemed to | restore the equanimity of the men | who made an examination of the ma- chine which was discovered to be only slightly damaged and the last seen of the militiamen they were proceed- ing to Niantic in the auto. 4219 CHILDREN HAVE ENJOYED THE PLAYGROUNDS, More Than 100 Per Day Has Been Av- erage Attendance at All Six. | THhe popularity of the Norwich play grounds thus far this season is con- vincingly shown by the figures of at- tendance compiled by Director Wielt for the season to date. For the first nine days the attendances were: At Pearl street 898, at the Falls 907, at Hobart avenue 812, and at Lake street 1,010, the total number of children belng 3,627 in the interval of a little over a week, In the five days that Greeneville has been open the attend- ance was 593, bringing the total at- tendance for the five greunds up to 4,219, Thamesvilie is popular as well | as the other greunds, but as it has | been running but two days the attend- nce there is not yet normal. The Lake | street grounds had the largest attend- ! ance for a single day with 161 chil- dren, but the average daily attendance at ail greunds is better than 100 per ground. The scheduled games in the Pla; ads Baseball league will be playea y in Mohegan park, Hobart avenus Greeneville at 10 a. m., and the Falls vs. Thamesville-Fearl at 1.30 p. m. This consolidation of the Thames= | ville and Pearl street boys into a single team is due to the number of boys on the lattes grounds who are engaged in | summer work, and it will have the| good effect of bracing up the team. The | consolidated nine should be a strong | one, and the boys expect to make up | for lost time by starting out with a victory this afternoon. NE;VBERRY FINED $100.
