The May term of.the United States district court will convene at Provi- dence today for the grand and the petit jury will report for duty Wednesday. The most important case on the dock- et is that against BEdward P. Metcalf, former president of the Atlantic Na- tional bank, Providence, indicted for alleged misapplication of funds of the bank. The cases of special local in- terest are those of the United States David Shapiro and Louis Mil- ler, both under 21 years of age, and residents of New York city. They are charged with breaking and entering and larceny of goods from a car that was engaged in interstate traffic. The offense was committed in the ‘Westerly freight yard, where the car was set off for repairs. The boys had been given lodging in a local firehouse and left.in the morning, stating that they were going to New London, and from there to New York. Instead they went in the direction of Providence. They broke open the car and took a lot of silver mounted brushes and combs which they shipped by express to New York from Bradford, ref ing half a dozen in their possession. The suspi- clous action of the boys in the village of Bradford led to their arrest by Special Officer John Thompson. He called Constable John Catto in the case and, aftér consultation and inves- tigation, they conciuded to deliver the boys to Chief of Police Thomas E. Brown, and-~the boys were placed In cells in the police station. Here they confessed their guilt. 3 Representatives of the law depart- ment of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company made a request that the boys be released to the federal authorities, for the reason that having such cases dealt with by the federal instead of town court would have a more deterring effect upon this class of criminals, the penalty under the federal statutes being a max! fine ‘of $5.000 or a year in fail, or both. With the advice of/ Agard, Chief Brown released the boys to the deputy United States marshal. George Maurice of Norwich and Miss Martha Girard of Danielson were mar- ried at a nuptial mass in St. Michael's church ‘Monday. The mairriage oere- mony was performed by Father Mau- rice of Montreal, brother of the bride- groom. They were attended by Mr. and Mrs, Joseph Mettveer, Mrs. Metl- veer being a sister of the bride. Afier the marriage a breakfast was served at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Metiveer, ‘with relatives and a few intimate friends as guests.

The thefts were reported to the poiice and Chief Brown and Patrolman Mitchell have been at work on the case. o It was learned that much stolen: property had been Junkman Inkinsky and a fairly good description ‘wés given of the young fellows who disposed of the material to”tHe ‘junk dealer. Chief Brown was satisfled that Ernest Miller and Henry p 1 were the thieves, and since last’' Thursday the local police have been on the lookout for the pair, as ‘wel as for a third young man. Deputy Slieriff William H. Casey of Pawca- ‘tuok- was.requested to aid in locating the suspects and Monday -morning Sheriff Casey found the pair in the o0l rqom on-the bridge and took them inte custody. They agreed over ‘the state boundary line into Westerly, ‘here Sheriff Casey ered them Chief Brown. of sold the to Martell and Miller will be arraigned in the |’ Third district court today. The La Tena circus attracted many to Westerly Monday to see the parade, which was all that could be expected for an attraction in a class distinct from the Yarger shows of the Barnum & Bailey type. The exhibition includes several commendabie features and is well worth the price of admission, and AR FELL 007 WITH RNGHORN Burned and :liched So Scratched Until Blood Came. Cried Herself to Sleep.

Tt burned and itched so she would scratch until Be blood came and she would cry herself to sleep. In the morning the pillow would ‘be covered with blood and humor where she ‘would havescratched it in her sleep. During the day she was miserable. v 2 “T used and as well but they did her no good fer the ringworm was getting bigger and bigger. I had given up hppes.
