Rice of South Man- chester, who was arrested here in his automobile on July 23rd when a party of South Manchester merchants were on their way to Ocean beach has no frienly feeling towards the Norwich Police, according to the Manchester Herald. It is intimated in the Hecald that the Norwich police must have been pretty short of money to arrest the dootor, who tells his story of his ar- rest Tor speeding and of mow he was fined $25 and costs which amounted In all to $34.50. One thing that is omitted in the Manchester story is that the docaor was also found to be traveling without his license and that that was included in the court charges against him. According to the Norwich police, the doctor was followed down Broad- way from Lincoln avenue to Broad street by the motorcyele policeman, whose speedometer showed that he was making 32 miles an hour.

In her were nobly combined the characteristics of her Scottish blood. To a practical every day sort or cheerful living she added a spirit deyoutedly religious and as one of the oldest members of the Greeneville Con- gregational church her life was lived for the things that are highest. She is survived by her only brother, by these seven children, four William _J. Wallace of John H. Wallace, of Holyoke, James B, Wallace of New Have Thomas B.

An explosion in the front end of the cellar of Smith’s R astore at No. 205 Main street on Thursday afternoon at 245 o'clock started a fire that gave the department a lively fight for ut half an hour, but was under control Dy that time, and the recall was strucx in by Culef Howard L. Gtanton et ‘The prompt work of /the firemen, with the effective way in which they got streams of water at the right spot to smother out the blaze, kept the flames practicaily all in the section of the store where the fire started, but there was some water damage as well as smoke damage on the main floor of the drug store, while the smoke also penetrated up through the three stories of the building-and spread into ad- joining buildings. The expiosion was at once followed by a burst of flame and daese binck smoke that shot up into the drug store and gave the alarm in the street when it poured out of the weaterly cellar window on to Maln street. The explosion took place in a section of the cellar where James Lacy been emploved filling bottles of Kill- bug. He was in the rear end of the celiar when the explosion occurred 50 that he escaped injury, but had to rush out in a hurry as the flames seemed bound to spread through the whole cellas There is gasoline in the Kill-bug composition and_it_was belleved by Manager Frank B. Eggleton who was in charge of the store at the time that an eleotric spark. possibly from a shert cireuit, might have been com- municated 1o the atmosphere im- pregnated with gasoline, causing the explosion>. Frank E. Henderson Policeman caught sight of the spouting of flame and smoke from the cellar at almast the instant it took place and at once rang in alarm from box 4, at the cor- ner of Main street and Broadway. At the same time Policeman Charies Smith made a dash for box 23, on Franklin square, near Ferry street, and was ready to turn in an alarm from there. The crowd that collected quick- ly was cleared away from the front of the store by the policemen to make room for the arriving firemen to op- erate, and as the autechemical shot around the Broadway cormer into Franklin street it ran a line of hose from the hydrant at that point. Thy steamer and aerial truck from the Central station, with chemical com- pany No. 1 from the Main street sta- tion and chemical company Ne. 2 froem the West Side, aleo responded and were quickly in action. The first line of hose was led down 1o the front of the store and a stream of water from it was shet into the cellar through the cellar window, from which the smoke and flames were coming. Another line of hose was led from the hydrant at the corner of Shetuck- et and Maln streets and the stream of water from this was alse used at the front of the Smith store. A plate glass window was smashed in and as soon as possible after the smoke cleared off, the firemen penetrated into the stere holes In the! the hose was' .::' w% ‘water sent into the ‘The_lines of hose were also led the hydrant at the corner of sireet and Rose place. They were taken through into the front of the cellar but were mot used long. They seived 1o kewy the fire from backing up that way and also drove the smoke towards the front of the store. The steamer was located at o cistern in Franklin square and had steam up but was not needed. To guard nst accidents Chiet | Stanton cut the electric light wires! leading to the electric sigm to the edge! of the sidewalk. All the meters in the gellar were also shut off. They Were fdr the various tennants in the building. One of the meters was in such a hot place that its connections were turned off, Frank E. eton, who was in charge of the store was driven from it with the other clerks within a minute or two of the bursting of the fire as the store was filed with a suffocating smoke. Before he was abie to close the safe, but he also intended to go back to it to take the money out but was unable to do S0 because of the thick smoke that filled the store almmost immediately. The fire- men working with the lines of hose at the cellar window also found it hard to stay there and had to be relieved frequently. Manager James Mara was away from the store, as it was his afternoon off, but he heard of the fire and reached the store within a short time. On the floor above the drug store are the offices of Dr. ¥. C. Jackeon aad Dr. D. J. Coyle, dentists. ~These were | fllled with smoke. On this floor also | and on the floor above are roems oc- | cupied by the Mondeville house, which | were also filled with smoke.

The entire lose will be some- thing over $1,000, it is estimated, and is cavered by insurance. Smith, Policemen Henderson _and with the aid of Deputy Sheriff George H. Stanton, kept the crowds back.

The visiting offi- cer was positive because a box of trick cigars, exploding when lignted. was stolen at the Norwich store, and the same kind of cigars were in Nich.: olas’ valise. The Norwich police were notified of Nicholas’ committal and the circumstances. The evidence against Nicholas was supplied by Constable Eimer E. Ken- nerson, caretaker at Riverside park.

Mr. Kenerson said he saw Nicholas sitting, in the park, approached and ques- tioned him. ‘When he lookeq into the valise he found an electric ~pocket torch, mask, sneaks or rubber soled cloth shoes, two boxes of cigars. a screwdriver, coins In rolls, cigarettes, and chocolate bars. After being ar- rested Nicholas sprang from Constable Kenerson and started to run away. He ran about 40 rods, turning three times and reaching for his pocket. The third time the constable got near enough to trip the fugitive and grab his hand, in_which there was a knife. Nich told Judge €oit that he owns a farm at North Attleboro and spent Friday night there. He came to New London Saturday morning, ar- riving on a train shortly before he was arrested.
