Five of the cells in the Westerly police station were occupied Thursday +| morning when Chief of Police “Tom Brown made his regular inspection. In cell No. 1 was a North Stonington { young man who 1s no stranger to penal ' institutions although his chief offense is intoxication. He had no money to pay a fine, or even the costs, and t0 send him down the line would mean an expense to the town, and to put him on probation, after incurring an ex- pense of the court costs, would be of no avail. He promised the chief that if released he would go immeédiately beyond the police jurisdiction of West- erly and would make herolc effort to drink of intoxicants no more. He was released by the chief. In another cell was a chap Who, while intoxicated, called at the police station for lodgings and was locked up. He said he was a weaver and could get employment at Potter Hill | if given the opportunity. Chief Brown warned him to travel on unless he se- | cured the expected emplovment, and | not to be seen in Westerly again in an intoxicated condition. The chief told him to get, and he got out of the sta- torn in short order. 7 Another cell was occupied by a pris- oner charged with Intoxication, a aver employed at the Pawcatuck woolen mill, and who has been in at employ about two years. He was 9 years of age, was born in Burril- ville, R.

Rose Lemoine ot FATHER JOHN'S MEDICINE KEEPS ALL MY FAMILY WELL AND STRONG Vigorous Letter Praising Father John’s Medicine by New York Mother “Father John’s Medicine is the only medicine I rely on when my boy has a bad cold or is feeling weak and run down,” says Mrs. John Kelly, of 5 W. 101st St, New York City. “I have known, the value of the medicine for five years and hope this word of praise may urge others to try it. I have taken it myself and it has done me a lot of good.” (Signed) Mrs. John Kelly, 5 W. 101st St., New York City. Many famliies keep Father John's Medicine on hand eonstantly in c of emergency, beeause they know that as a tonic and body-builder it has more than fifty years of success. It is a safe family medicine because it does not contain alcohol or dangerous drugs in any form but is all pure and wholesome nourishment for those who are weak and run down. It gives them strength to ward off disease. choix’s coon dog, Perpetual, started on a hunting expedition Wednesday ev- ening in what is known as the Baltic ledge belt. Rfter considerable travel- ing a large coon was encountered and the dog took the scent and started on the trail. Mr. Coon was overtaken by the dog and a fierce battle ensued, the dog proving the better of the two. The animal was put out of commission by the huntsmen. On returning home the coon was weighed by Oliver Portelance and was 27 3-4 pounds.

L They simply repeated the marriage vows, the one to the other, and the clerk of the meeting certified’ the mar- rlage to the town clerk as a matter of record and requirement of civil law. The republican caucus for the nomi nation of state senator and two repr sentatives to the general assembly was held in the Westerly town hail Thursday night, and was the largest ever held in the town. There were practically three caucuses in one, a general caucus for senator and two district caucuses for representativcs. Arthur L. Perry, secretary of the town committee, called the general caucvs to order, and Eugene B. Pendleton was chosen moderator and Everett E. Whipple clerk. Mr. Pendleton has been moderator of caucuses for many years and was never known to make a speech of acceptance until Thursday nightgghe being usually content with the sféreotyped remark: “Gentlemen, I thank you for the nomination of a secretary.” But before calling for a secretary he made quite a littie speech. He thanked his fellow republicans for electing him moderator of the larsest caucus ever held in Westerly, and said that while the national campaign did not seem to carry with it much inter- est, sill it is demonstraied in Westerly that there is zealous interest by the | people of this town, the American peo- ple, and especially the republican party. amuel H. Davis nominated Albert H. Langworthy for state senator. There was no other nomination, and M Langworthy was unanimously —nomi- nated by acclamation. This caucus then dissolved. Dr. John M. O'Connell called the i First represeatative district to order, and he was chosen temporary chal man. John Lerguson, Jr., was elected lclerk. In behaif of the town commit- D. Harold Rogers nominated incis G. Haswell for representative. ard J. Penelon nominated Joseph T. Murphy in opposition. It was then voted to proceed to vote by paper bal- lot and that the polls remain open un til 10 o'clock. Arthur L. Perry called the Second representative district to order. Eu- gene B. Pendleton was chosen chair- [man and Clarence E. Roche clerk. William H, Ledward, representing the republican town committee, nominated Maurice W. ¥lynn for representative from the Second district. Palmer Chapman nominated Samuel H. Davis opposition. It was also voted to ke a paper ballot and that the bal- loting continue until 10 o'clock. | The iron railings used in regular elections had been installed and the balloting proceeded as at elections, the moderator and clerk officiating. Then the political fight was on in both di tric balleis in the hall, while out- side many automobiles were scurrying hither and thither bLringing voters to | the town , and there was more activity in that line Thursday nigh than at all elections combined in Westerly for st quarter of a cen- | tury. Natur hy more or less tilting be: erents of the ng candidates during Pro- of the vote, but on the whole combined caucuses were orderiy, political caucuses go in these mod- ern times. The result of the caucus votes arc | as_follows: First district, Maurice W. Flynn, 332, Samuel H. Davis 323; Second district, Francis G. Haswell 293, Joseph T. Murphy 218. Moderator Pendleton announced the vote and declared Mr. Flynn to be the nominee of caucus. Subsequently the moderator announced that an er- ror had been discovered and that the actual vote was favorable to Mr. Da- vis whose vote was 348 and that Mr. Flynn's vote was 25 less than an. nounced. As the moderator had al- ready announced he could make no | contrary declaration. So Mr. Flynn the nominee and it is up to Mr. Dav. | to_make the next move.

Westerly republicans have no dem- ocratic opponcnts and therefore if there is a political scrap it must be between themselves, a sort of family Jar. Aside from the closing of schools ind the banks, and lessening of pub- lic service at the post office, there was no obser in Westerly. The fire department was called out about 11 o'clock Thursday night for a blaze in the work shop in the rear of the residence of Everett Barme. The loss was slight.
