Most thrilling of all was his own rrow escape from being shot as a rman spy at the French town of Taub, where are located turpenite works that supply the French army with tuis terrific explosive. For 37 heurs he was a prisoner, part of the time being marched around the town under guard with bayonets and drawn sword while a mob followed, throwing stones at times, and with shouts of “Death to the German spy,’ “Throw to saying his passports werd Wrong, but it illustrated thelr extreme caution about spies.

Washington - streot: Sho had as her guest a cllese friend, Johnson’s assertion that he was an American citizen, charged him with being a German spy who had come to blow up the turpenite works. “You are the biggest man I have seen and the ‘boches’ (Germans) are all big, and your eves are blue and your moustache blonde. You are a German.” Instantly a guard of six men with bayonets was summoned, he was plac- ed under arrest and marched into the tow nwith a gathering threatening crowd following. It happened that the perfect of police was away attending the funeral of a relative and he could not bo reached for 24 hours. His guards took his money away from him as well as his luggage, but finally con- sented to let him stay at the hotel with a soldief guard. Finally, after 37 hours, he was released with profuse apologies from the perfect, who declar- ed_his _passports all right. Mr. Johnson said it was all a bluff on the part of the French soldiers as taken and incorporated on their pass- ports and they advised to keep a sharp eye on their passports, as German spies were stealing them. One of the circumstances that helped Mr. Jobnson particularly when he came to get away from Pau was thai he had a *“war fund" of $1,500. He had fore- seen this war coming, he said two years ago, and had started to lay by some money for the emergency. It was a most fortunate thing that he did_so. Mr. Johnson says that the French showed a wonderful spirit of devotion and are prepared to fight to the last drop of their biood in a war that they declare has been forced upon them by Germany. They have plenty of am- munition and their commissariat is working admirably, while German prisoners whom he has Seen declare that the German: army is so poorly fed that in many cases the soldiers say they have nearly starved to death. PROMISES COURT HE WILL SUPPORT HIS WIFE William Kremska Was Married Edith Nichols of New London. to The case against Willlam Kramska, 22 years of age, charged with fallure to support his wife, who is 18 years of age and his child, was continued in the city court on Saturday by Judge Kelly as Kramska said he would go to New London, where his wife re- sides with her parents, and would care for both her and the child. The evi- dence introduced at the hearing brought out the information that Mrs. Kremska secured the forged signatures of her parents in order that she might marry without their consent. - The young man under the name of Wil- liam Kramer and the young woman, who was Miss Edith. Nichols, were married in this city on March 20, 1913 by Justice of the Peace John H. Barnes. At the time of their mar- riage she was 17 and he gave his agel as 21, As she was a minor the con- sent of her parents was necessary and she secured the usual blank furnished by the town authorities to be filled In by her parents. In court she said that ‘she called in a woman whom she does not know and who was passing the door of the room occupied by her in the Carboni lodging house and got the woman to sign her parents’ names, The husband said e was married un- der the name of Kramer as it sounded more like a German name than ska did. When he married, he said, he was employed as a_baker, but of late has been employed at the state hospital as a carpenter. Mrs. Kremska is the daughter of William and Mary Nichols and was born in New London. The husband has lived in both Waterford and Wor- wich and is the son of Martin and Mary Ryan Kremska. * A fine of $2 and costs was imposed upon William Hamilton of Pawtucket accused of sieeping in a shed in Nor- wich Town. was _taken to jail by Constable TFielde.

Lewis, city health officer, said on Sunday that he expected to re- ceive an order Monday from Jeftrey O. Phelps, Jr., commissioner on domestic animals, specifying that for a period of 60-days all dogs in Norwich shall be muzzled. This is brought about by the recent mad dog episodes that have en- saged the attention of the local offi- cials. The second mad dog to be shot was a mongrel bull owned by Joan Nicol of Roosevelt avenue which last Week broke its chain and after roaming about the streets and roadways was finally despatched with a bullet fired from a gun in the hands of Charles L, Morgan in Bozrah. The animal was discovered in Bozrah between 9 and 10 o'clock_on Wednesday. - The dog en- tered Mr. Morgan's yard blindly and while Tunning collided with two brood sows Iying on the ground. It at once began to bite them about the neck and ears, inflicting serious wounds. Mr. Morgan’s attention was attracted by the noise and getting his gun he wal ed close to the dog and shot him, the bullet killing him instantly. As there is at present no health of- ficer in Bozrah, word was sent to Dr. Lewis. Dr. Lewis had no jurisd:- ~ n in that town, and he commun 1 with County Health Officer Arthur si. Brown, who appointed him health of- ficer of Bozrah. Dr. Lewis secured the dog’s head and sent ti to State Com- missioner Phelps on Thursday, where examination showed a well developed case of rabies. Before arriving In Bozrah the dog attacked another mon- grel belonging to a Golden street man, and this dog will be killed. It is not known whether the dog did any other gun;-ge, but a sharp lookout will ve ept. ‘Whether there bwas any connection between the Greeneville mad dog and the one shot on Shetucket street about a week ago by Policeman Patrick Murphy is not known. The dog was bitten ‘about the ears, but the owner he paid. e EQUAL FRANCHISE CAMPAIGN. . Stats Organizers to Conduct Fourteen Mestings in This Section.
