NORWICH BULLETIN, MONDAY, MAY 10, 1975 port Charge. Adella Budnick, 30. of No. 464 North Main' street, who had her husband, Thomas Budnick, in the city court on Saturday morning on a charge of non- support, drank the larger part of a one ounce bottle of carbolic acid Sa urday night about $.45 o'clock at her home. Another woman who was in the house at the time heard her groans and discovered what Mrs. Budnick had done. Policeman Michael Carroll and Dr. E, J, Brophy were called to ihe house, which is at the corner of North Main and Sixth street. Mrs. Budnick was in great pain and very weak when the doctor arrived. but she was con- scious. The marks of the acid could be seen on her chin, where it had drip- ped from her mouth and the instde of her mouth and throat showed the burning effects of the acld. The doctor took her at once to the aospital in his automobile, accompanied by Supernumerary Barney Keenan. On the way to the hospital she vomited frequently and at the hospital the stomach pump was used and she was given an antidote and a stimulant. On Sunday she was somewhat more comfortable, although still in pain, es- pecially in her throat, where the aci burns showed their effect. It will be a day or two yet before she can be considered out of danger, it is stated. Mrs. Budnick's deed followed a s ries of domestic troubles which have twice brought her and her husband into the city court this month. On Mon- day, May 3rd she was before the court @hedBulletin. [TOOK DOSE OF CARBOLIC AGID Mrs. Adella Budnick of No. 464 North Main Street Drank Larger Part of One Ounce Bottle—Taken to Backus Hospital—In State of Melancholia Over Domestic Diffi- culties—Had Husband in Court Saturday on Non-Sup- on a breach of tha peace charge, but the complaint was nolled. The next day her husband was before the court on a non-support charge preferred by his wife. The case was continued un- til Saturday morning when it' was again called up and Mr. Budnick was ordered to pay his wife $2 a week. He now works in a mill and formeriy ran a lunch room. After the court the woman told Chief George Linton that she did not want her husband's $2 as she intended to sell out her household furniture and go to New Jersey. She warned Chief Lin- ton not to look her up as she said her husband would probably be seek- ing her in the near future. Several Greeneville people saw her with a bottle of carbolic acid last week and some heard her say that she meant to Kill herself. At a market where she was during the week she said that she expected to have a fight with her husband and it she couldn’t lick him she would kill herself. She showed the bottle of carbolic acid and the pro- prietor of the market tried to induce her to give it up to him, but she would not part with it. It is understood that she had tried to buy carbolic acid at a Greeneville drug store during the week, but they refused to sell it to her. The ounce bottle, three-quarters empty, was found tn_the hougs: She has been suffering from mel- ancholia and there are indications, it is_understood, that her mind may be affected. An investigation will be made along this line. MILK FEEDING LESSENS MORTALITY AMONG CHICKS Result Shown by Experiments Made at Storrs College.

State Entomologist Tells Best Way to Destroy Them. The following announcement con- cerning the prevalence of the tent cat- erpillar in Connecticut is issued by W. R. Britton, the state entomologist: The tent caterpillar is extremely abundant, and its nests may now be seen everywhere in the crotches of apple and wild cherry trees. The cat- erpillars are now feeding upon un- iowng leaves. here orchards are properly sprayed with lead arsenate, three pounds in 50 g‘l]nns of water, little damage will be lone, but this spray should not be ap- plled where the trees are in blossom. A cone-shaped bristle brush, mount- ¢d on the end of a pole, is perhaps the best device for removing the nests from trees which are not sprayed. This brush should be used in early morning or late in the day, when the cater- pillars are in the nest. The brush may be dipped into ketosene or’the cater- pillars killed by crushing. Burning oft the mnests is liable to injure the trees. Service at Jail, Sunday afternoon General Secretas Bawin Hill of the Y. M. C. A, spoke before the men at the local jail.

The secret of keeping young is to feel young—to do this you must watch your liver and bowels—there’s no need of having a sallow complexion—dark Tings under your eyes—pimples—a bil- ious look in your face—dull eyes with no_sparkle. Your doctor Will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inac- tive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physi- cian’ in Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to_his patients for years. 5 Dr, Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub- stitute for calomel, are gentle.in their action, yet always effective. They bring about that exuberance of spirit, that natural buoyancy which should be enjoyed by everyone, by ton- ing up the liver and clearing the sys. tem of impurities.

Card, assist- ed by Thomas G. Hull and Roy E. Jones. The conclusions arrived at in the published booklets are as follows: The feeding of milk to young chicks has a most favorable influence on the growth and on the lessening of mor- tality of the chicks. It tends to pre- vent mortality from all causes, and it fed soon enough and for a sufficiently long period, greatly reduces the death rate caused by bacillary white dlar- rhoea. Sweet and sour milk are apparently of equal value in their relation to growth and mortality. Furthermore, different degrees of souring do not alter the results of milk feeding. The value of milk as a food for chicks does not depend upon any acids that may be present, nor upon any particular types of micro-organisms; but upon one or more of the natural constituents of the milk. When milk is supplied freely to chicks, . it- becomes_all the more im- portant that they have abundant ex- ercise. This applies more particular- Iy to early hatched chicks that are brooded wholly or for the most part indoors. The feeding of sweet or sour milk to- young chicks has in no instance been found to be in any way injurious to the chicks employed in our numer- ous experiments. If the milk is clean, and not too old, none but the most favorable results should accompany its use as food for chicks. There is no reference in the choice of sweet or of sour milk, except from the stand- point of convenience. The use of the one or the other should be determined by the circumstances. However, it seems very desirable that the same kind of milk be supplied throughout the milk feeding period.- If the choice is that of sour milk, sour milk should be fed to the end. REVERENCE FOR MOTHER Always Holds Place in Heart of a True Sdn. Rev. George H. Ewing, pastor of the First Congregational . church, paid a tribute to Mother in his talk at the men’s meeting in the Y. M. C. A. hall Sunday_afternoon. General Secretary. Edwin Hill led the meeting and Sam- uel McAllister offeréd prayer. Before giving his talk, Rev. Mr, Ew- ing read passages of scripture from Luke 2, John 19 and Matthew 12, espe- clally appropriate to the day, which was Mother's day. The sweetest and strongest influence that surrounds any person cehters it- self in the home, said Rev. Mr. Ew- ing, and the noblest home is the Chris- tian home. 1Is it not God's will that he has provided that during a long period of years that we should be de- pendent on our mothers? The Bible is often referred to as a book of heroic tales of men. It is also a book of heroic tales of motherhood, He went on to speak of the power of mother-love. We are today ob- serving Mother’s day. Mother is after all the homemaker. It is her influence that inspires the lives of her chil- dren. The power of mother-love is a restraining power. How often we have been held back when tempted to stray away, by the thought of mother. But it is not only a restraining influence; it is_also a molding influence. Rev. Mr. Ewing then spoke of the tributes pad to mother by great men in the world's history. It is because of moth- er's love, he said, that sons go forth and make good in the world. The speaker then referred to the value -of the habit of honoring our mothers. The, true son, he said, al- ways holds in_his heart a place of reverence for his mather, The men's meetings will continue in- doors at the association building for the remainder of the month. It is ex- pected that on the first Sunday in June the outdoor meetings will be started. Boys Will Hear Hobson, Boys’ Secretary J. H. Ely of the Y. M. C.

OF C, WILL BEAT ALL RECORDS In Class Assembling for Exemplifica- tion Here on May 30th. With Dr, T, A. Crowley, faithful nav- igator, présiding, Rev. Danlel Mullen assembly, fourth degree section of the Knights of Columbus, held a most en- thuslastic meeting Sunday afterncon in the council chamber of the order In the Sunlight building. The purpose of fhe meeting was to recelve and act upon applications for admission to the fourth degree section which is to be exemplified in this city on Sunday, May 30th. Large Class Indicated. Present indications are that, if the function is to be considered simply with reference to the number of can- didates to be initiated, it will be the largest and most successful exempli- ficitlon ever held in the district of Connecticut. Reports which have been received by John M. Lee, master of the fourth degree for this district show that everywhere, throughout the state, an interest has been aroused that will culminate in an attendance such as has not been reached at any previous exemplification, since the institution of this degree. 100 for Eastern Connecticut. A class of 100 candidates was con- sidered about the average size for Con- necticut, but taking the reports of the membership committee of the Rev. Daniel Mullen assembly as a basis, it is almost certain that there will be at least one hundred applicants from the territory east of the Connecticut river. And when to that number is added the quota of candidates which each of the other councils in the state will send; it can be readily seen that it means a class considerably above the average in mumber. Men of Prominence Coming. Another significant feature of the coming_exemplification is the number of members of considerable prominence in state affairs who have signified their intention of taking the degree at this time. The fourth degree section in Connecticut already includes on its roster many of the most prominent Catholics in the state, men who add strength and influence to the order of the Knights of Columbus and with the accussion of the new members who are now preparing to enter this sec- tion, the movement in Connecticut will receive an impetus that is sure to in- crease its influence for good in the commonwealth, Visitors Will Be Entertained. The reports of the several commit- [tees having in charge the arrangements for the exemplification show that the local fourth degree members are mak- ing preparations to entertain royally the visiting knights and make them realize that the Rose of New Eng- land is not only progressive in every movement which tends to advance the interests of Columbianism, but that it is hospitable as well, and intends to provide for the comfort and pleas- ure of those who as guests and brother knights will visit Norwich on the 30th day of May. UNDER $300 BONDS FOR SUPERIOR COURT Bernot Willett Bound Over After Hearing in Mont Bernot Willett of Montville was bound over to the criminal superior court on the charge of having carnal knowledge of Gertrude Harrington, an imbecile, of Montville, by Justice of the Peace John J. Lawless in Mont- ville late Friday afternoon. Willett furnished bonds of $300, the sum being reduced from $500, which is the amount under which he has been held. Willett was arrested last week by State Policemen Jackson and Flynn and his case continued until 2 o'clock Friday afternoon when there was a lengthy hearing. Attorney Max Boyer prosecuted and Attorney Perry J. Hol- landersky appeared for the accused. The Harrington woman admitted that the accused had had improper relations with her in April, 1914. Marvin Pierce, with whom Gertrude Harrington lived, testified that the wo- man had stayed at Willett's house one night in April and he had gone there for her. Willett claimed in his testimony that the woman came to his house on the evening in question in fear of her life at the hands of Pierce, who was drunk. He gave her a room for the night and breakfast the next morniWe when he telephoned to Pierce that the Harring- ton woman was there and asking that he_come for her, which he did. Justice of the Peace Lawless found probable cause and he bound the ac- cused over to the higher court. In_consequence of charges made by the Harrington woman, Edgar Mondou and Prentice Willlams' have also been bound over to the superior court after 2 hearing, Second Perf of Mice and Men.

FINED $1 AND COSTS. R. M. Douglass Takes Appeal—Hit John Denovan With an Umbrelia. In the city court on Saturday morn- ing, after trial of an assault case against Attorney Roderick M. Doug-} iass, in which the complainant was| John Donovan, former street commis- sioner, Judge T. J. Kelly found Mr. Douglass guilty and fined him $1 ‘and costs. Mr. Douglass took an appeal and gave a bond of $25. The trial of the case was attended by about sixty men and nine women. ‘When put to plea, Mr. Douglass, who had as his counsel Attorney Allyn M. Brown, pleaded not guilty. City Attor- ney John D. Hall was aided by Attor- ney Lee Roy Robbins, who took the place of Attorney John H. Barnes and C. W. Comstock, who are attorneys for Mr. Donovoan, but were out of town. _Mr. Donovan testified that on the night of April 28th he was walking with Rollo H. Harris past the Alice building on Main street when Mr. Douglass called twice at him. When Mr. Donovan turned at the second call Mr. Douglass came up to him on the walk at the head of Fuller's court and said to him: “You —— rascal, I want to talk to you’ Sent Hat and Cigar Flying. With an umbrella that Mr. Douglass had in his hand he hit Mr. Donovan on the side of the head, knocking oft his hat and knocking a cigar out of his month. Mr. Donovan said he picked up the hat and called to Supernumerary John Donovan, who happened to be passing on the other side of the street, to arrest Mr. Douglass. Mr. Douglass told the officer that he would be in court if he were wanted and the arrest ‘was not made. A writ was later made out after Mr. Donovan had made a complaint to Capt. D. J. Twomey at police head- quarters. ~Mr. Donovan testified that he had been told by Attorney Com- stock to keep an eye on Mr. Douglass, as he carried a revolyer. Upon _examination by Attorney Brown, Mr. Donovan said that he aid not call Mr. Douglass an embezzler on the night of this assault or assert that he had been disbarred, and he claimed he never insulted the lawyer and that he had no ill feeling toward him, although he did not love him. Mr. Donovan also denied that he had sent to Mr. Church a marked copy of tho Gazette on which, in connection with an item about this assault, was written the words: “T got Douglass and I will get you Corroborated the Complainant. Rollo H. Harris testified that he was walking with Mr. Donevan in order to get points about state road work and he corroborated the various happen- ings that Mr, Donovan had testified to. e said he did not hear Mr. Donovan say anything wrohg to_Mr. Douglass. upernumerary John Donovan testi- fled that he saw Mr. Donovan struck once with an umbrelia. His attention was attracted because he heard the name Donovan called twice and he looked across the street, supposing he Wwas the man who was wanted. When the supernumerary went across _the strect Mr. Douglass said he would be in court if he were wanted, and then Mr. Douglass stepped into Allym L. Brown's auto and rode away. Arthur Fenton, who Is janitor of the Alice building, testified that he was alking to Mr. Douglass, who called Mr. Donovan and then went toward him. The janitor saw the umbrella come up and the sparks fly from a cigar. John Ahearn, J. Frank Corey and M. J. Ryan were three other witnesses called, but they all said they did not xnow anything about the trouble. Testimony for Defense. When the defense was taken up At- tor Brown called upon Attorney Deuglass, who testified that the start- ing of the Craney-Donovan lawsuit had been the beginning of his troubles with Mr. Donovan and that since then he had been insulted by Mr. Donovan on the street on an average of twice a week for the last two years. He had also received some diabolical letters from Mr. Donovan. Attorney Douglass said he always keeps his eye on Mr. Donovan and on the night of the trouble, as Mr. Donovan was passing him with Rollo Harris, Donovan turn- ed and said: “There is the — em- bezzler.” To this Mr. Douglass said he paid no attention, but in about 10 minutes the two men returned and this time Mr. Donovan said: “Yes, and ne was suspended less than a year and a halt atter being admitted to the ar.” When they had gone on a short dis- tance from him, Mr. Douglass testified that he called to Mr. Donovan and d: “Why do you insist upon insult- ing me? Donovan Rushed at Him, Mr. Douglass did not move, he testi- fled, but Donovan came rushing back towards him and crouched down and his eyes snapped and he said: “Have you got anything to say to me?” Then, the witness said, he raised his umorella and hit Mr. Donovan on the side of the head, but did not follow him up and was desirous of avoiding him. He thought Mr. Donovan intended to hit him and run, as he had done with other men. Mr. Douglass said he had never owned a pistol, but had been on his guard against Mr. Donovan. Writing on Paper. Mr. Douglass was shown a copy of the Gazette with a marked item in it about this case. There was the follow- Ing writing on the paper: “Donovan will get all of you before he gets through. No one can bluff him.” Mr. Douglass said the writing was Mr. Donovan's. To a question from City Attorney Hall, Mr. Douglass answered that he was very cool that night and did not take any steps towards Mr. Donovan. He felt sure that Mr. Donovan would do him bodily harm, and he had once Lefore asked him why he persisted in sending him letters and papers. Theodore N. Church, who was pass- ing at the time pof the trouble, saw one mar in a crouched position and the blow with the umbrella, he testi- fled. He did not interfere but passed on. Attorney . Brown argued for acquit- tal for his client and City Attorney Hall reviewed the evidence briefly for the prosecution. New Auto Register by June Tst.

NORWICH TOWN “The Christian Mother” Topic of Rev. George H. Ewing’s Sermon on Mothers' Day at First Church— Troop 6 to Meet—General News, At the First Congregational church Sunday morning in commemoration of Mothers' day, Rev. G. H. Ewing took for his text, “When I call to remem- brance the unfeigned faith that is in thee which dwelt first in thy grand- mother Lois and thy mother Bunice.” That which makes the home emphat- ically Christian is the Christian moth. er, the speaker said. Honor thy father and thy mother, is one of the ten com mandments. In the book of Kings is illustrated the influence that goes forth from the mother heart and the mother life. Eunice and Lois were saintly mothers. Such are the inheritance of noble sons and daughters. Mother love is a check upon evil tendencies and a help to overcome temptations that come in after life It is a moulding power. A class of stu- dents in Princeton was asked how many had praying mothers. Up went 150 hands. We owe everything in the home to those who have im- pressed upon us the sweetness and strength of their character. This is the tribute of Lincoln and a iong line of illustrious heroes. A mother's bellef in her child makes that child believe in himself. The memory of a mother after she has passed on remains a sweet, chastening, helpful and blessed influence. Her love is sacrificial and thus an emblem of the Saviors love. Faith unfelgned dwelt in the mother, grandmother and son. Faith will never Charles D.
