Despite his denials that he had accosted different citizens and ap- pealed for “the price of a meal” he could not convince the court of the truth of his statements. After Arthur Reloux, a porter, had testified to being accosted by Arnold and solicited for funds to purchase 2 meal the accused told his story in which he declared that the testimony of the porter was preposterous, in the fact that he was supplied with suffi- clent to buy his own meals. Then Judge Coit queried as to whether or not the accused recalled accosting_him in the post office about half_an hour before. Arnold replied in the negative. Accused said he went to New Lon- don_Tuesday afternoon to look for work. He stayed at a 25 cent lodg- ing house in Bank street Wednesday night and visited the Ship and En- gine Co., in quest of employment on Thursday morning. He was. unsuc- ces8ful and returning to the city went to the Crocker house where he ap- plied to fill a vacancy in the kitchen. He had not reached tge kitchen, when he was arrested by Patrolman How- ard. He told the court he was the sole support of his mother, who re- sides in Norwich. COUNTERFEIT BILLS ARE IN CIRCULATION. One is Clever Imitaticn of Federal Reserve Bank Note. Two counterfeit $5 bills are reported in_circulaticn in various parts of the state, and local merchants are warned to be'on the alert. One of the counter- feits is a clever imitation of the Fed- eral Reserve bank note and the other, which is mcre easily detected, because of its being a poor specimen. is a sil- ver certificate of the series of 1899, The Federal Reserve note bears the check letter “D.” plate number 5; and the signature of W. 4.

Appar- entiy the counterfeit is printed from photo-lithographic plates on good bond paper on which red and blue lines are made to represent the sillc thre of the original.

Festival This Year Begins On the 20th of the Month. Although rated in the traditional calendar as a minor festival, com- vared with the Biblical festivals and holy days, the post-Biblical Channu- kah (Feast of Dedication—more fa- miliarly known as the Feast of Lights) is in reality of major sig- nificance, commemorating, as it does, one of the most herolc and far-reach- Ing ' victorles for ‘fatherland and The historic back-ground of the events from about 168 to 165 B. C. According to legend the eight-day celebration grew out of the fact, that, when the perpetual lamp was to be re- lit, only a smail cruse.of the sacred oil was to be found, an amount suffi- clent seemingly for only one day, But miraculously it lasted for eight days until the new supply was obtained. It Is thus that tradition explans the sec- ond name of the festival as the “Feast :; L|lght!." Irrespective of literal facts e legend enshrines a,great truf that the pure light of rellglo:h' n‘:d‘-' supplies of spiritual energy to feed it to new flame even when seemingly about to be quenched.

In the fifth week of the laying con- test_at Storrs, two Pennsylvania pens of White Leghorns got away with first and second places. E. A.

The total yield for all pens amounted to 1,813, or 80 eggs better than for the corre- spending week last year. Thus the birds in the present compettiion are nearly 400 eggs ahexd of last vear's record at this time. The management hopes from y limits, of the contest ar to year to get, within better egg vield because the birds are better reared and better bred. Not only thjs, but for the cui rent competition & believed that it & better prices will prevail, boycotts and investigations to the contrary not- withstanding. There appear 1o be very plausible re. ns for believing that thc average price of eggs for the coming year will be higher than heretofore. In the first place, there are less ezgs in storage by perhaps a million cases than at this time a vear ago. I"urther- more, there are indications that a great many fowls have been markeied because ‘heir owners did not Zzel they could afford the present srair prices, and in addition consumption has prob- ably been sreater by virtue of the higher wages that have obtained.
