John R, Emerson of New Fane, N. Y., Was présent at his. first: reunion since fifty years ago, and expressed himself as greatly pleased to see the “boys” once more. In contra-distinction to this absentee was the secretary, Jer- ome B, Baldwin of this city, who has attended every reunion ever held by the regiment. John H. Selden of Middle Haddam, the president, called the gathering to order at 10.30 and Major W, S. Hub- bell of New York, chaplain of the regi- ment, offered prayer. Then followed the report of the secretary, Jerome B. Baldwin, showing 148 living mem- bers and 16 deaths during the year. A vote of thanks was extended to the secretary for his careful keeping of the records and roll. Captain Charles Fenton of this city, treasurer of the organization, reported a successful year, with the sum of $168.13 in the treasury. A nominating committee consisting of George T. Meech of Middletown, John H. Selden of Middle Haddam and Arthur G. Olmstead of Hockanum was chosen and it was voted that those seletted for president, secretary and treasurer be for life. While the committee was making its selections, the necrology was read, and a short eulogy read on the death of late Comrade Henry B. Lawrence, whose death occurred last week.

KILLINGLY EMBEZZLEMENT CASE Chicken Buyer Yorkin Given One Year in County Jail—Guilty of Em- bezzling $50. Judge James H. Webb presided at the session of the criminal superior court in this city Tuesday for the trial of Totras Yorkin on the charge of embezzlement of $135 from Nathan Berkowitz of Providence, R, I. The case of Keeley against the town of Ashford, which was to have followed the criminal case, was postponed on account of the iliness of one of the witnesses. The following jurors were drawn for the Yorkin case: Clifford J. Alpaugh and L. Edwin Backus of Windham; George F. Locke, Putnam; George O. Balch, Ashford; George W. Talbot, Brooklyn; Frank Coffey, Canterbury; ! That Tired Feeling Relieved by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, Which Renovates the Blood. That tired feeling that comes to you in the spring, year after year, is gn that your blood lacks vitality, Jjust as pimples, boils and other erup- tio: are signs that it is impure; and it is also a sign that your system is in a low or run-down condition in- viting disease. It is a warning, which it is wise to heed. Ask your druggist for Hood's Sar- saprilla. This old standard tried and true blood medicine relieves that tired feeling. It cleanses the blood, gives new life. new courage, strength and cheerfulness. It makes the rich red blood that will make you feel, look, eat and sleep better. Be sure to get Hood’s because it is the best. There is no other combina- tion of roots, barks and herbs like it— no real substitute for it—mo “just- as-good” medicine.

Bayles. Defendant took his own horse, but Berkowiiz's wagon, drove to Sayles’ home, where he was told it was too late to start back that day, and he had better put up the horse over night. This he did, putting the animal in the barn of Edward Keegan, and later purchasing a pair of shoes from Joseph Gagnonm, & clerk in a Dan- felson shoe store.” It was claimed de- fendant never showed up again to get the horse or the chickens, but disap- peared, and was gone two or three weeks. When he came back to Prov- idence, the money was gore. The witnesses for the state were Nathan and Rose Berkowitz and Mor- ris Girtz of Providence, R, L, Walter E. of Elmville, Conn., Joseph Gagnon of Brooklyn. Yorkin's story was that he went on the trip as a partner of Berkowitz, who gave him $50. The balance of the money he said he raised, getting $25 from his own home, and $40 from a man who owed him money; $20 he had at the time, He said after he put up the horse in Killingly he met sothe friends and had several drinks. The next he knew he was in Boston, where he stayed with his sister for six days. He denied buying any shoes in Dan- lelson. After returning to Providence he said the matter was settled by Berk- owitz’s taking the horse he owned in payment of the $50 he had given the defendant for the deal. He said they had been partners in other transac- tlons previously. His story was cor- roborated by his wife and several wit- nesses. The jury was out 50 minutes, and re- turned a verdict of guilty of embezzle- ment of $50. Yorkin was then sen- tenced by Judge Webb to one year in the county jail. Court adjourned to this morning, when the case of You- clas vs. Weeks will be tried, Twe Children Sent to County Home for a Time. The adjourned hearing in the mat- ter of the commitment of the three children of David Swyden to the coun- ty home was held before Judge L. J. Storrs in the probate court at 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. After the exam- ination of two witnesses, an agree- ment was reached whereby the two girls, Pansy, 13,5and Pearl, 9, were sent to the county home until their father is able to provide a home for them. The name of the boy, George, 11 years of age, was stricken from the applica- tion. The latter is living with an uncle in Lebanon. Attorney Samuel B. Har- vey represented the Humane society and Attorney Frank H. Foss repre- sented Swyden. MACDO;V_ELL MEETING Held by Woman's Club Tuesday After- noon—Well Arranged Programme Given.

Solos by Miss Anna Bassett of Enfield street will be in- terspersed in the program. The business of the meeting over Mrs. Tryon gave the afternoon over into the hands of Mrs_ Charles Ca: well. Mrs. Caswell, assisted by Mi: Marian Niles and Miss Blanchette, had arranged the program and Mrs. Cas- well introduced the story of McDow- ell's early life, his work at home and abroad. McDowell's character, his diffidence, ense of humor, and lack of social tact, were brought out in various anecdotes and the influence of Raff on his career was dwelt upon. Mrs. Caswell spoke of the tragic death of the artist and closed with a touch- ing quotation from his last work. Charles Caswell rendered several of McDowell's songs in excellent voice. The piano selections were very clev ly rendered by Miss Niles, while M Blanchette played several beautif violin solos with her usual faultless technique.
