A wrong impression may have aris- en on account of a paragraph in Mon- day’s news columns regarding the ar- Test of a man calling himself A. N. Vaughn, in New Britain. . The matter was explained at length in the issues of Thursday, Nov. 20th, when it was stated that Chief Rich- mond had been called on the telephone and told that a person using that name was_under arrest. The chief assured the New Britain officer that a mistake had been made, as the only A. N. Vaughn in this cily was a man whose probity was well known and who was in fact here at the time. It is unfortunate that the person ar- rested assumed Mr. Vaughn's name, as the incident has caused much annoy- ance. It is believed by the police that the man may be one who hung around this city in the early part of this month and obtained = some of Mr. Vaughn's billheads. It is probable that Mr. Vaughn may g0 to New Britain with some member of the local police force in an effort to identify the crook as the one men- tioned, wro went by the name of J. H. Kruger while in town, and is be- lieved to bail from Providence way. COMPLIMENTARV DINNER Tendored Dr. J, H. Egbert, Home from Santa Marta. About thirty friends of Dr. J.

Constable Thomas J, Killourey went to New York Monday at the request of a local business man in search of the latter’'s son, who took his father's watch, diamond ring and some money when he went away from the city last summer. My#, Killourey was successful i{n his search, locating the young man at 38 Mott street, and bringing him back, plus the diamond ring and watch, on the 3 o'clock train Tuesday This was very rapid work on th part of the constable, considering his lack of familiarity with the big city. A former attempt to bring the young man home had proved unsuccesful, and it remained for the persuasive powers of Mr. Killourey the feat. to accomplish One Small Girl Gets Arm Fractured— Another Badly Cut.

A Railroad Problem. Jewett City people are always awake to railroad matters and will be inter Mrs. mai going the rounds on the Shore Line. Here it is: Two trains wish to cross each there is a turnout. Each train consists of 40 cars and an engine. The turnout 1s just long enough to hold 40 cars and an’ engine. The turnout already con- tains 40 cars, from which the links and pins have been removed, and there is mo way of coupling any of them. No flying switch is to be made. No shunting stick is to be used. No switching rope is to be used. uncoupled cars must be pushed when- sver they are moved. How can the two trains cross and go on and leave the 40 detached cars as they were original- Iy?

NOANK Baptist Sunday School Classes on Imaginary Voyage—Fishing Boat Runs on Beach and is Damaged. An fnteresting feature in connection with the work of the Baptist Sunday school is the dividing of the classes into what has been likened to two steamships, the Mauretania and Lusi tania, each under command of a cap: tain, the passage to be made from New York to Palestine. The ships set sail at the same time and each new pupil added to the crew gives the ship on which he embarks 100 miles on her journey. At present the boats are Gibraltar, the Mauretania being ahead. The last run counted this ship 300 miles. It is expected that at the av- erage rate of speed the voyage will last about three weeks longer. Contributed Jelly.
