DAVIS Palmer Hammocks ALL GRADES LARGE STOCK AND LOW PRICES Field Croquet, Baseballs The great state steamship terminal at East New London, now in a state of partial completion, is receiving its first practical test. The west bulkhead has been entirely covered with the re- inforced concrete units which will con- stitute the surface of the pier and upon it are being unloaded cargoes of sand and crushed stone that arrive by water. Huge piles ten feet in height indicate the resistance of the units. The sand comes in lighters from Long Island and the crushed stone by similar con- veyance from the New Haven Trap Rock company. These shipments are utilized in making more concrete units, the con- struction and laying of which are now being rushed. Nearly 150 are now in place. Other details of the terminal construction are going along satisfac- torily.

He argued until 10.55 when Judge Shumway _charged the jury occupying until 11.15. The jury deliberated about 45 minutes and then returned with the verdict of guilty. State Attorney Hull moved for a sentence immediately and Ricardino in the county jail. Ricardino's defence was an alibi and denial on the ground that he could neither read nor write English and therefore could not have forged the check. The state did not claim that he actually forged the check, but that he was at least an accessory.

One of the curiosities of the paint- ers' colony at Lyme is a perambuy- lating studfo. It belongs to Henry R. Poore, of East Orange, N. J., whose canvas, Pilgrim Sons, painted from the traveling atelier, was shown at the recent Academy exhibition, The studio resembles a house on a stoneboat. It is drawn from place to place by two yoke of oxen, which gives the outfit the primitive New England flavor. Mr. Poore paints win- ter scenes in the cosey protection af- forded by his traveling studio and, as those who are familiar with the rigors of New England winters are aware, the warmth and comfort of four walls, fur rugs and a blue flame oil stove are not to be despised. Mr. Poore is addicted to traveling studios. As far back as 1890 he had one which he operated in the pictur- esque country in the vicinity of Phil- adelphia. This one was constructed on wheels and was easily drawn by a single horse in the shafts. It was beautifully made and coach finished. “While it lasted it was my studio coach,” explained Mr, Poora, “but after a season in the open the glory of its brilliancy had departed and it received the more fitting sobriquet of the Black Maria. It had a window on each of the four sides and was sufficiently high to stand in comfortably. It was heat- ed by a small oil stove. “l was able to drive this studio over the fields, and while I found it an ad- mirable device for the painting of dis- tance and middle distance, it gave me a too precipitous view in the fore- ground. So I sold the Black Maria to a peddler and turned my attention to building another studio. After myy experience I knew just how the next one should be built. “I wished to paint the wonderfully picturesque country about Lyme, where for the past 15 years I have had a studio. In making plans for the second movable studio I decided to set it as low as possible in order to avoid the steep pitch in the foreground. Since no wheel could be made small enough to insure this I used runners. “To drag this studio over the ground. though frozen, required two yoke of oxen, but with their assistance no hili- top of crag was inaccessible. I found that oxen were better than horses for this service, as the ox, being without imagination, feared no consequences when he was urged close to a preci- pice. “I found I could secure comfort and sufficient range from my easel in a studlo, the dimensions of which were 9 feet long by 4 1-2 wide and 8 feet high at the ridge pole. In this small compass it is astonishing how many things can be stowed. On two sides are hinged seats which can be brought into use when needed or dropped out of the way. Racks and shelves along the sides dispose of wet canvasses and boxes with cotton waste insure my various bottles against breakage by the cold, “Besides a hound, a constant com- panion, I attached a sheep to my car- aven. At first I tied him on behind, but in time he became as friendly as Mary’s little lamb. The friendship be- tween the animals, however, was of short duration, for they became very jealous of one another.” BOY WITH MATCHES PROBABLY STARTED FIRE. "Shed Was Burned on Huntley Property on Elizabeth Street. At 12.30 o'clock Thursday noon an alarm from box 7, corner of Mt. Pleas- ant and Elizabeth streets, called out the fire department for a fire in a small shed at No. 66 Elizabeth street. The shed was practically destroyed, as only the frame remains standing. Mrs. Albert Huntley owns the premises, which are occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Oscar D. Bjork. A boy playing with matches is supposed to have caused the fire. Chemical company No. 2, Chemical company 3 and the truck and engine companies from the Central station re- sponded to the call. DECISION SATURDAY IN CHINAMEN'S CASES. Willimantic Men Will Wnow Whether They Are to Be Deported. Hearing of the case against Lee Him, a Willimantic laundryman whom the United States authorities seek to deport on the ground that he is illegally within the country, has been concluded before United States Commissioner Richard F. Carroll at the federal building in Hartford. Com- missioner Carroll reserved decision un- til Saturday. Lee Him had in for- mer hearings introduced evidence to show he was born in California and that he was an only child and now an orphan. In his argument District Attorney F. A. Scott referred to the earlier statements of L.ee Him to In- spector McCabe, that Lee Him's father was the Chinaman for whom he worked in Willimantie, that hi mother died in China many years ago and that he had brothers and sisters. Thomas J. Kelly of Willi- mantic sppeared for Lee Him. In the case of Chin Dung Wong, another Chinaman in Willimantic, a few months, additional corrobora- tive evidence wasg introduced by his attorney, Francis H. Parker of Hart- for. John H. Vernonm, city attorney of Burlington, N. C., and a member of the general assembly of North Carolina testified that he has known Chin since 1911 and the Chinaman was_a member of the Baraca class of the First Baptist church of Bur- Tagton, of which Mr. Vernon was teacher. Mr., Vernon also identified a photograph of the tlass, previously introduced by Chin Dung_Wong. This establishes a part of the chain of evidence introduced to show Chin Dung_Wong's places of residence aft- ter his alleged birth in California. SUDDEN DEATH OF NEW LONDON MACHINIST. Henry B. Sistare Was Waiting For Boat to Take Him to Work. Henry B. Sistare, machinist, 52, vears old, of 4 Starr street, New Lon- don, died suddenly at 6.45 o'clock on Thursday morning in that city while at the public lemding with men em- ployed at the ship yard of the Thames Tow Boat Co. at Riverside. He was waiting for the launch which trans- ports them between the city and the ship yard. A life long friend, Herbert E. Lewis, of 48 Truman street, stood in the group of men and was talking with Mr. Sistare. He tried to raise him up and others sought to revive him, believing he had fainted, but it was found that he was dead. Patrolman Howard called Medical Examiner Lee, who said death was due to a disease of the heart. Mr. Sistare was a machinist em- ployed extensively on engine rebuild- ing and repair work. He nas known as being faithful as well as skillful. Mrs. Sistare, who was Miss Kimberly, a daughter, Miss Addie T.

New London Health Officer and Prose- cuting Attorney Disagree. Because Prosecuting Attorney Dan- iel M. Cronin refused to prosecute Mrs. Roland Perkins of New Londoa Wednesday morning on complaint of Health Officer J. T. Black for violating Quarantine, Health Officer Black has installed two special officers to guard the woman’s home et 321 Crystal ave- nue, New London. The officers were Sworn in by Actlng Mayor A. T. Miner Wednesday afternoon at the request of the health officer, who reported that Mrs. Perkins was defying his orders at quxamn}:me. 1 the course of his investigation, Health Officer Black found that Mrs, Perkins had visited the Remmert home in Crystal avenue while victims of smallpox were there, end he or- dered her vaccinated and quarantined. Mrs. Perkins, according to the health officer, not only refused to be vacci- nated, but was defiant and stated that she would visit the Remmert house as often as she pleased, and would go anywhere she desired. Dr. Black had her taken to police court Thursday and the prosecuting attorney refused to present the wom- an on the ground that she had not been quarantined, while the heaith of- ficer states that he issued to the wom- an quarantine orders. The health officer then applied to Acting Mayor Miner for special offi- cers, and Mrs. Perkins is being de- tained at her home. There are two officers on dufy, one days and ome nights. Dr. J. H. Townsend, secretary of the Connecticut state board of health, is coming to New London this (Fri- day) morning to look over the small- Pox situation. Dr. Townsend comes at the request of Health Officer J. T. Black, and will make a general survey of conditions in the city relative to the smallpox epidemic. The visit is requested for consulta- tion regarding a questionsble case. A 2 1-2 year old child was at first sus- pected of having smallpox, according to symptoms. Now there is some question about the matter and Secre- tary Townsend's opinion will be sought while reviewing the situation. He will also be shown the other smallpox victims, not that there is any doubt in the mind of the health officer and the physicians of the city, who are in accord that the disease is smallpox, but merely to have the state official verify their opinions and incidentally set at rest the suspicions entertained by some skeptical persons that the disease is not smallpox.
