THE#E 18 no savertising medium In ern Conhecticut egual to The Bul- fi‘d 1or businesa rea " committee, | i Four calls for the firemen from 1.05 p. m. to 10.55 p. m., constituted ten hours free from monotony for the Nor- wich department on Wednesday. None of them were bell alarms. The first came for a grass fire on the bank near the Chelsea Boat club house and had probably been started by sparks from a locomotive. It made but few minutes work for the autochemical and Chemical Companies No. 1 and No. 2 which responded. This was followed at 5.10 by a sum- mons to the Chemical company from the West Side station to come to the small grocery store of Louis Rosen- berg at No. 19¢ West Main street. They were promptly on the scene where they threw a Kerosene heater into the street. From what Chief Stanton learned it appeared that the heater needed more oil and in order to fill it with kerosene, the wick was turned down, but still held some sparks while the oil was poured in. The kerosene spattered onto the sparks and a flash of flame and smoke resulted. This call was followed by one at 5.40 for a chimney fire in the Bus- well building at the corner of Main and Shetucket streets, to which the autochemical from the Central station and Chemical Company No. 1 from the Main Slre?t station responded.

A HEIFERS WERE MISSING FROM WATERFORD PASTURE. Charles S. Charged With Taking Them. The trial of Charles S. Shea of Wa- terford occupied all the time of the criminal superfor court in session here on Wednesday, and was not concluded when court adjourned at 4.10 o'clock. Judge Burpee directed that the ad- journment should be to 9.30 this morn- ing. Mr. Shea is' charged with stealing two heifers on August 1st, each valued at $75, from Albert Fowler and Charles R. Ogden of New London. This trial will be the last of this term of the court. The jurors who were not en- gaged in the trial of this case were paid off and excused. Shea is charged with taking and carrying away a Jersey heifer belong- ing to Ogden and a Guernsey heifer belonging to Fowler. Fowler and Og- den allege that they put the heifers out to pastire in Waterford in June in a pasture owned by Ernest Lewis, and that later they were missing. The following is the jury in the case: Charles M. Staubley, = Philip O. Yer- rington, James E. Kennedy, Preston Charles Latham, Herman W. Roberts, William A. Edmond, Griswold: Roger Foote, W. Irving Mott, Lebanon; George C. Brown, North Stonington; Thomas Fields, Bozrah; Curtis F. Haz- en, Spragne; Luther S.

He had seen the heifers ‘only once.

Witness Arrived After Adjournment. At this point in the case Major Hull said that the state had one more wit- ness to present, Ernest Lewis, and would then rest, but that the witness was not here but was attending the state grange meeting in Hartford. He suggested that the attorney for the g:len‘e might possibly be willing to gin his case and allow this missing witness for ‘the state to be brought in later. Attorney Geary did not wish to do this, and the judge remarked that he did not see that there was any busi ness in the state that would excuge STATE HOSPITAL TRUSTEES IN QUARTERLY MEETING.
