LFRED J. CORDIER. “M. O. T. C.. Detachment No. 1.” Parents Take Up Children’s Quarrel. Peter Julian, an Italian, was before Judge Lucius H. Fuller in Putnam city court Tuesday morning charged with breach of the peace. The com- plaint was made by Frank Naroda, a Pole, who appeared in court and was the only witness called. Julian pleaded sulty. According to testimony, which was taken through an interpreter, Julian and Naroda live with their families in a mill tenement on Elm street, Naroda downstairs and Julian upstairs. The troub eltahtdel S 2 trouble that led to Jullans’ arrest start- ed Monday morning between the chil- dren of the two familles. The pareuts took up the children’s quarrel and Na- roda testified that Julian attempted to tell him where his (Naroda's) chil- dren could and could not go. Accord- ing to the witness, Julian then went upstairs and returned carrving an axe ich he wielded in a_threatening manner until Naroda's wife interfered and separated the two men. In disposing of the case Judge Fuller told the two families that since they could not live peaceably under one roof it would be best for all concerned if one or the other could find another tenement. He also warned both men to keep the peace and not to take the law into their own hands by means of axes. Upon the %-commendation of Prosecuting Attorney Eric H. Johnson the case wa CORN SHOW COMMITTEE Appointed by Farmers’ Association to Plan for November Event. Windham County Farm Agent Ben- Jamin W.

Another Colored Man In. ‘Wrile the board was in session Tre: day morning James Duffy, who when he’ registered gave his address as 9 Potter street, Danielson, appeared be- fore them and explained that owing to the fact that he moved to Willi- mantic soon after registering he had not received his summons to appear before the board last week in sufficient time to do so. Mr. Duffy, who is the second negro to appear before the board, was told that the board had no option in cases such as his, but that they had recorded him as fit for ser- vice. Upon being told this Duffy reg- istered supreme delight and at once de- manded that he be given a uniform so that he could “get at them” all the sooner. He e explained that he ahs wanted to get into the service and that when his summons appeared ton late for him to come to Putnam an? be examined he had supposed all of his chances of getting into the con- script army had gone.
