School Building Repaired. The town hool committee has ex- pended about $300 in repairing the Center school, and members of the committee stabe that some other build- ings used for school purposes are bad- ly in need of repair. Several of the police officers ap- pointed recently have received new uniforms and the local force, as a body» is now resplendent and more snap- py looking. than ever before. The borough has an exceptionally good list of officers. Horses Showed Up Well. C. H. Michaels enjoyed success in the appearance of his horses at the New London County fair at Norwich.

Big Payrolls of Mills and Factories. n with knowledge of the for the statement in the mills and the payrolls factories of the town of Killingly are now at the top notch record; that they are thousands of dollars above what was the high record up to a few years ago. It is conservatively estimated that the payrolls of the more import- ant plants total a sum in excess of $30,000 a week—at least $5,000 every working day. By counting plants near Danielson—plants whose opera- tives spend much money in Danielson —the total of the kly payrolls would be surprisincly increased, this same authority says. Progress on New Vaults. The walls of the new vaults built in the town hall building are now up their full height and extended from the basement to the ceiling over what was a section of the balcony, which is reduced about one-third in size by the installation of the vaults.” The new record vaults will be amply roomy to meet all prospective needs of the town for yeas to come.

STATE PRISON TERM FOR FRANK STEPONA Twenty-year-old Webster Youth Sen- tenced for Breaking and Entering Diamond Store. When the superior court adjourned Thursday most of the criminal business that was on the list for consideration at this term of court had been disposed of, thougsh a few cases remain to come up. Frank Stepona, Webster, charged with breaking and entering the store of S. Diamond of this city and with taking goods valued at §200, pleaded suilty to one of the counts and was entenced to serve not less than one ear nor more than i% months in the state prison at Wetherstleld. Stepona, ias Stephens, is but 20 years of age. He was brougnt back to this city a few weeks ago by Captain Ryan after he had completed a term in Worcester jail, being released from that insti- tution in the care of Captain J. A. Ryan, who conducted him to this city in company with Lieutenant Theodore Downing of the state police. Stepona was a member of a gang that committed breaks here. In re- lation to the crime for which he is to serve time, Stepona’s story is that on the night of the break he was asleep near the roundhouse in the lo- cal railroad yards; that he was awak- ened by the man who made the break and requested to cafry two of the dress suit cases loaded with loot from the Diamongd store.| This he did, going north with the men to a point near West Thompson, where a night freight for Webster was boarded. Stepona was later arrested in con- nection with another affair, commit- ted in Massachusetts, and was con- fined in the jail at Worcester. Slips Off Handcuffs. Thursday, as on other days this week, Stepona was brought to Put- nam handecuffed as were other pris- oners. Arrived in court Thursday | morning he turned his back for a jiffy | and then turned again and handed the | handcuffs—open! to one of the deputy | sheriffs. One may imagine the amazement of those who witnessed the stunt. Stepona can rid Nis wrists of hand- cuffs as fast, almost, as they can be locked upon them. He told the offi- cers that there is only one make of the steel bracelets that haven't a weak part and, excepting that kind, it is no trick to open them. Stepona, for- merly employed in a factory where the cuffs are made, opens them deftly and scientifically, using no instrument of any kind and without pounding them. He does the stunt like an artist and as quick as a flash. Quillette Sent to Jail. Alexander Ouillette, 20, of Fall River, pleaded guilty Thursday to simple as- sault and was sentenced to serve five months in the county jail. He was originally charged wit hrape in con- nection with an episode that occurred in Danielson Aug. 1, while he was a member of a flying horse outfit. The complaint against him was lodged by Miranda Cady, 22, of Danielson. JUBLISK! JAILED Church Thief Gets Off Easy, Because Moosup Rector is Lenient. Stanislaus Jubliski, Quidnick, R. I., the man who was charged with break- ing and entering All Hallows’ church at Moosup and with breaking and en- tering St. John’s church, Plainfield, pleaded guilty without trial to break- ing and entering the Moosup church. The counts charging him with break- ing anq entering St. John's at Plain- fleld and with stealing a chalice from Hallows’ church, were noiled. Jubliski was given six months the county jail at Brooklyn. It was represented that the accused was in- toxicated at the time the crimes he was charged with were committed. It V. understood that Rev. J. E. Mec- arthy, rector of All Hallows’ church, did not desire to push the prosecution of the case. Willimantic Youth’s Case Continued. Charles Jacobs, 20, of Willimantic, was charged with unlawfully operat- ing the motor car of G. A. Merritt. At- torney Archibald Maecdonald, Jr., ad- in mitted to the bar a week ago this morning, was assigned as Jacobs’ counsel, getting what was his first case in court. The case was continued to the March m, no sentence being imposed. Wil- am Wyman, Willimantic, was ap- pointed Jacobs’' probation officer. Cl(rUu:(r) adjourned until this morning High School Registration 156 Superintendent H. W. Files announc- ed Thursday that this year’s reeistra- tion of students at the high school to date is 156, against a registration of 198 at the opening of the school in the fall of last year. The registration is expected to increase considerably within the next few days, however. There are 47 pupils registered in the eighth gr:de, which is in session in the high school building, making 203 studying in the high schaol building. SOUVENIR TAYLOR ABSENT FROM REPUBLICAN CONVENTION Has to Work Now and No More Will He Give Things Away. A Hartford paper printed the fol- lowing relative to Souvenir W. H. Teylor's absence from the republican state convention: Souvenir Taylor was absent! For the first time in twenty-five years a republican state convention has foresathered without the presence of the,smiling dispenser of flags, post l cards,, peppermints or some other form of anfacceptable souvenir. 3 delegates in New Haven were sound- ing each other about Holcomb and Healy and Blakeslee and John King and other live subjects, Souvenir was sitting behind the 's desk in a Hartford cafeteria ringing_up lunch checks and selling cigars. When any- one spoke of the convention and ex- pressed surprise at his absence Seuve- nir smiled sadly. Imagine a republican state conven- tion with Souvenir, like Sheridan at Winchester, twice twenty miles away. || But such was the case, and it’s apt to happen again. So the frequen- ters who attend republican conventions might as well reconcile themselves. In the future Souvenir will not be om hand and the delegate ‘from Ashford and the delegate from Sprague may buy his own particular souvenir te take back to the family. Souvenir talked a little about it last night. “I'm _not @&own at New Haven be- cause I must work, that's all there is to it. I can't afford ta give away things any more. How much money have I spent in the past twenty-five years for little things to give away? Oh, I never dared to figure it up. It would make a pretty sizable sum. Some folk uscef to talk as if I rolled in profits fromuprinting the legislative souvenir, but t printers got the most of that. And ! happen to know that a lot of people miss those souvenirs, too. I hegan the publication in 1897, and the last was in 1911-12, when the legislators struck an economy streak. I have received complimentary letters from librarians all over the country telling me of the value of my publica- tion to them,” concluded@ Souvenir, as he was interrupted to accept payment for ham and beans and coffee. No one would ever dream that a man who supplied as much sunshine as William H. Taylor could be born in a place called Arctic. Such was the case. Rhode Island was the state, and Arctic is a part of the town of Warwick. Now Warwick has a po= litical sound, and it seemed natural that Taylor should have some inti- mate connection with politics as he grew up. He became a newspaper- man, and has been connected as edi- tor, publisher or business manager of journals in Putnam, Danielson, Rock- ville and New Haven. For several years he was secretary and treasurer of the Connecticut Edi- torial Association, which he founded Jan. 16, 1888. He became a messen- ger in the house of representatives and for many yearse was doorkeeper and then assistant to the superintend- ent. utnam sent him to the legisla- ture in 1901 and he was a member of the state central committee, 1903-04. He was compiler of the manual and roll for several sessions. Governor Baldwin guided the legis- lation that abolished the publication of the Connecticut Legislative History for which a biennial appropriation was made. Souvenir knows everybody in the state worth knowing. Tor a quarter century he never missed a political convention, a legisiative ses- sion, reunion or banquet unmtil this meeting at New Haven. And now there’s a special session coming, and Souvenir does not ex- pect to even look in at it. And last session, working nights in New Brit- ain, he managed to spend a. portion of the time that should have been given to sleep in looking over the legisla- tors.
