With WATERWORKS SUPERINTENDENT | only a seven months’ term to fill, and Likely to Be Appointed by Board of Aldermen This Evening—Who'll Get: the Place? . The March meeting of the board. of aldermen will be held this evening and the question on the streets the last day or so has been “What will they do in regard to the superintendent of waterworks?"” The republican majority on the ooard failed to confirm Mayor Dunn’s appointment of Henderson S. Moulton a couple of months ago, and at the expiration of the necessiry time, the mayor having made no second nomi- nation, selected E. S.

Among others whose names have been mentioned for the place is Frank L. Powell, who has always been a good worker for the republican par- ty. Mr. Powell stated Saturday to The RBulletin correspondent that he was a receptive candidate and would not refuse the position if it came his way. There is undoubtedly an effort being made to have a republican put into the office. On the other hand, many feel that the party would make a grave mistake in so doing, as there has been a sort of “gentlemen’s agree- ment” in regard to the positlons of superintendent of the waterworks and superintendent of the pumping sta- tion, one incumbent having held the job ‘from each party for many years, and reprisals would undoubtedly be in order if the democrats regain control next fall.

Batt o Now, Torie " T DANIELSON AND DANIELSON All But One of the Liquor Raid Cases Continued a Week—Pony Express Case Not Brought Up—Oliver White, Who Threatened to Kill State Police, in Jail in Default of $2,000 Bonds. The cases of all but one of those arrested in the state police liquor raids here Friday night were continued un- til next Saturday at 9 a. m., after those charged with violations of the law had been put to plea before Deputy Judge James N. Tucker in the town court Saturday morning. Deputy Judge James N. Tucker pre- sided at the session, which was long drawn out, and which was altended by an audience that jammed the court- room. Wiilfam Welch of Attawaugan pleaded fiot gullty to counts charging him with the sale of cider on Feb. 23 (two sales) to Lewis Simoncini, a de- tective who has been operating in town for nearly two months. A jug of cider and more than a dozen bottles of Jamaica ginger, 95 per cent. alcohol, were seized by the state police when they raided Welch’s place at Atta- waugan Friday night, but nothing was said about that Saturday morning. M Welch was not arrested Friday night, but he appeared in court Saturday morning and produced John Doyle as bondsman for $500 for his appearance next Saturday. Natalo Zicarrd, a resident on Fur- nace street, pleaded not guilty to sell- ing wine on Jan. 3 to Lewis Simoncini and to keeping with Intent to sell. The cotrt fixed his bond at $500, which he was unable to furnish, and went to jail. A quantity of beer was seized at Zicarro’s house in Friday night's raid. Antonio Mazazerelli, charged with keeping with Intent to sell, this being a second offense, for the prisoner was convicted of a similar charge on March 14 of last year, a license vear in this town, pleaded not guilty. He eaid that the wine seized at his house, 28 quarts. Friday night was kept for his own use. He could not furnish bonds of 3500 for his release until trial of his case next Saturday, so went to jail. Madeliana Mazzerelli, Antonio’s wife, called at the police station to see her husband, bringing their little baby, early Saturday morning and was her- self locked up. Later she was also charged with violation of the liquor laws, sales of wine to Simoncini on Jan. 5 and Feb, 10. Her plea was not guilty. On account of the baby, Prosecuting Attorney A. G. Bill allow- ed her to go on her own recognizance, she having declared she could not fur- ish bonds of $200. She will appear Saturday. Armand Goulet, 22, a West Side boy, arrested Saturday morning, got into trouble in a very simple way. He pleaded guilty to selling half a pint of whiskey, which he said he bought in Putnam, to Simoncini. Goulet bought the pint for his own use, it is said. Philip Robarge, 26, pleaded not guilty to procuring a pint of whiskey for Simoncini. His case was contin- ued until Saturday, his bonds fixed at $100. As, to the seizure of the cargo of the pony' express, bringing orders _from Putnam for distribution by Eli Dage- nias, agent, nothing was said in court Saturday, beyond the announcement of the continuing of the case until next Saturday. It is anticipated that this case will develop some technical points that will be of special interest in rela- tion to the order traffic that has been going on openly here for months. Sent to Jail. At an early morning session of thé town court Saturdny, Judge Harry E. Back presiding, Cornelius Kelleher, for having been intoxicated and for breach of the peace, was sentenced to serve 60 days in jail and to pay costs amounting to $12.14. Kelleher was ar- rested in_the Dayville section of the town Friday night by Constable Hosea Greene. WHITE WAS “TOO QUICK. His Excuse in Court Gun on State Against Spotter. for Drawing Pelice—Enraged A dramatic story of the manner in which they-were threatened with be- ing shot by Oliver White when they visited his home late Friday night to make a cider raid was told in the town court Saturday morning by State Po- licemen [Bridgeman, Wheeler, Jack- son and Deputy Sheriff John M. Bes- sette. White was arraigned on a charge of having attempted to kill State Polic man Bridgman and with resisting ar- rest. White pleaded not guilty to the first count and guilty to resisting ar- rest, but probable cause was found for holding him for trial at the superior court, and Deputy Judge James N. Tucker fixed his bonds at $2,000, in de- fault of which he was taken to the jail at Brooklyn. Fach of the four officers mentioned told at the hearing of what transpired at the White place. The officers had reached the house, which is in a se- cluded spot in the southern part of the borough, in an automobile, had invaded the White cellar and removed five of the nine barrels of cider there before the trouble started. While the state officers were getting the cider out Deputy Sheriff Besette had gone after a heavy team wagon to carry away the seizure and was just returning with the team and those in charge of it when White appeared, flourishing a single barrel shotgun and ordering with many oaths that the of- ficers immediately leave the premises or_be shot. ‘White leveled the weapon at the of- ficers, all of whom were armed, re- peatedly. insisting that they be off at once. At this time Officer Wheelef was_in_the cellar, finishing up his work. He heard the click of the ham- mer on White's gun as it was snapped back, and the answering click of Offi- cer Jackson's automatic revolver, he says. Taking only time to slip a car- tridge into the chamber of his own re- volver, completing its full magazine load, he came from the cellar as Offi- cer Jackson was asking White for time to get the automobile out of the yard. At this time Officer Bridgeman and Deputy Sheriff Bessette, as well as Jackson, were covered witli White's gun, and they have since admitted that their position was anything but enjoy- able. White seemed infuriated. ‘While an attempt was being made to start the engine of the automobile— an attempt that was really a stall to gain time—Officer Wheeler worked around behind White and finally got into range of action. He leaped upon te and boré him to the ground, jamming his head into the ground as Officer Jackson closed in, and assisted Officer Wheeler in getti possession of the weapon, which, these officers charged in court, White tried to fire as. the struggle for the gun went on. The gun was found to be cocked and 10aded. An extra shell was forced from White's hand. ‘White appeared very downcast at the hearing. hen asked if he cared to make a statement to the court, he merely said that he was “too guick” and that his intention was only to frighten the officers away. 1n addition to what they told about the fight, the state officers told the court that White had, during the time he. had them covered with the gun, wanted to know “which one of them was the spotter that had given him away,” for he wanted to gwq hi 'his referred to Lewis ncini, & young Italian who has PUTNAM NEWS been here getting evidence of viola- tions of the excise laws during the past few weeks. Simoncini was with the officers raiding White, but in the dark- ness the man did not seem able to pick him out, which is probably to White's advantage. White's arrest is one of the most sensational that has occurred here in ars. In court he was not charged with sales or with keeping with intent to sell, the developments that caused his arrest overshadowing minor con- siderations. TEACHER'S COMPENSATION. Commissioner Dcnohue of Norwich, Hears Case of Estate of Mrs. W. N. Arnold, Whe Died From Pneumonia. In the office of Judge A. G, BIl, counsel for the claimants, there was a hearing before Compensation Commis- sioner J, J. Donohue, M. D., of Nor- wich, Saturday afternoon, relative to the claim for compensation arising out of the death of Mrs. W. N. Arnold early in the winter. Mrs. Arrold was a teacher in_the East Brocklvn school on the West Side. Her death was due to pneumo- nia_and the claim is set up that her health became impaired because the school building vas not properly heat- ed. The town of Brooklyn is protected by compensation insurance and the company that wrote it was represent- ed at Saturday’s hearing by Attorney Pierce of Waterbury. Witnesses in number were called by both sides and testified at the hearing to the manner in which the build- heated. Among those who a were Miss Annie Day and Nellie Keech, teachers in the ool, and some of the pupils who study there. Dr. F. P. Todd was an- other witness, The claim, which, of course, is con- tested, amourts, it is stated, to about $3,000, and is one of very special in- terest. Commissioner Donohue served his decision. HAD 2,500 VISITORS. New Quarters of Danielson Trust Com- pany Inspected and Admired Sat- urday. Estimates of the number of persons who visited the new quarters of the Danielson Trust company in the Brad- ley building Saturday afternoon and evening at the formal opéning run as high as 2,500. From the time the doors were crered at 3 o'clock, until after the hour advertised for closing, 8 o'clock, there was a steady stream of visitors, the rooms being well filled most of the time. President J. Arthur Atwood, Vice President A. Jacobs and members of the board of directors assisted Treas- ured Clifford H. Starkweather and the force of the bank in receiving the guests. St. Argelo’s orchestra of Providence played throughout the aft- ernoon and evening and there was a profusion of flowers to add to the beauty and attractiveness of the fine- 1y equirped quarters: There were souvenirs for the ladies and souvenirs for the gentlemen, pretty and useful gifts that will be retained by those who received them., Practically every visitor. expressed admiratiop of the’arrangement, equip- ment and furniskings of the new bank. It is easily one of the finest in any New England town the size of Daniel- son. The floors are of rose colored fibre compcsitiorn of great resiliency. Fixtures, incluéing partitions, desks, tables and nvmerous other articles of equipment throughout the bank, are entirely of art metal, done in a dark olive or mahonony finish. The table tops are of a medium green shade of battleship linoleum. The ceilings are of steel. The indirect lighting system is used and highly satisfactory results obtained. The corner entrance to the bank opens into a roomy lobby, which is equipped with all conveniences for the transaction of business by patrons of the bank. To the left of the entrance is the president’s room and to the right i sa retiring room for ladies. The tellers’ windows surmounting the mar- ble wainscotting that is used through- out the lobby and face toward the en- trance. The fine and especially built safe deposit vault is just in the rear of the tellers’ section. It is a model of its kind, having all of the very latest protective devices and the very best of equipment. The space reserved for the clerical force of the bank is ample and well lighted through the line of plate glass windows down the south side of the building. The directors’ room, which is very attractively furnished, Is at the rear of the bank and reached by a broad pas- sage running along at the north side of the building. Near the directors’ room are coupon booths, where per- sons who have left deposit boxes in the bank may retire with their valuable papers and do so in the utmost com- fort and privacy. The whole arrangement of the bank has been carefully thoughtout and yorked out and the result is certain- ly deserving of winning for the officials the heartiest congratulations. TWO MORE ARRESTS. John Sipples For Keeping Pool Room Open Too Long—George Metthe For Violating Excise Law. An aftermath of the state police raids was the arrest on Saturday ev- ening of John Sipples, proprietor of a pool room on Main street, in the Olive Branch building, and Geprge Metthe. Sipples is charged with hav- ing kept his pool rooms open con- trary to law between the hours of 1 a, m. and 8 a. m. He was released under bonds of $100 to appear for trial later.

The reason why so many people who sufter from Catarrh never seem able to get cured is that they are continually seeking the momentary relief of spra: douching, greasy creams, ointments, cte. Such things do open up the swoll en mostrils and clear the head tempo- rarily, besides stopping for a while the disgusting blowing, hawking, spitting and choking, but they never cure. To drive out Catarrh for good you have got to get down to its real cause,. Ca- tarrh is_a germ disease. The “air is always full of catarrh germs_thrown oft by one person and absorbed by an- other and when the system does fail to throw off such germs they find per- manent lodgement in the nose, throat and head and multiply rapidly. The germs of catarrh can be best destroyed by inhaling the pure medi- cated air of Hyomei (pronounced High- o-me). This splendid and powerful combination of oll of Eucalyptus with other healing agents has a wonderful ermicidal action. You breathe its alr nto your nose, throat and lungs by means of a small hard rubber inhaler which The Lee & Osgood Co. and other leading druggists here iNorwich and vicinity supply with every treatment. This medicated air is certain death to the germs of Catarrh. and drives them completely out of your system and when the germs are destroyed the ca- tarrh with all its disagreeable symp- toms will stop. Even two or three minutes’ use will give refreshing re- lief, while, if you will use it two or thrée times a day for a few weeks, it will completely banish catarrh and ev- ery symptom of catarrh. As Hyomei is leasant to breathe and is always sold B,V druggists everywhere with a posi- tive guarantee of successful results or money back, surely no Catarrhal suf- ferer should go long before trying this simple home remedy.
