Wiliams in the Third dis- trict court, Monday, on the charge of assaulting with Intent to kill Guiseppe Salvidio. He pleaded not guilty to the charge an $3,000 for appearance at a_hearing to Dbe held next Friday. John Turano-and his wife Nunziata, are the sureties. From information obtained by the police that on Saturday night of the Wweek before last the two men were in a Canal street saloon and indulged in a fusilade of words, during which Sal- vidio called Chiniago “some very ba names.” They were kept from each other by friends on that night. Last Saturday night both men were in another saloon In the same street, seated at separate tables with a few of their respective friends. Shortly before 11 o'clock Salvidio left the sa- —_— loon. He was closely followed by Chi- niago. Anticipating_trouble, friends follotved the pair. Just as soon as the latter reached Salvidio he knock- ed him down and stabbed him in the back, the police believe with a stiletto, althouzh the accused claims he used a pocket knife and that in seif-defense. When friends reached the scene Sal- vidio was on the ground, face down- wards, with Chiniago astride of him, with knife, stiletto or some other sharp instrument in hand. Salvidio was res- cued before any more injury was in- flicted. Two hours afterward Chiniago | was arrested at his home near Dunn's corners by Policemen West and Mit- chell. James Cohen, a Providence man. em- ploved at Richmond, pleaded guilty to the charge of intoxication and paid a fine of $2 and costs of $3.80. Fire practically destroyed the plant of the Ashaway Clay company, Satur- Ga; night, entailing a ioss of per- haps $60.000, less about $20.000 insur- ance protection. The fire origin4ted in the engine room from some unknown cause, but believed to be spontaneous combustion. as no fire had been in the building, or under the boilers for three davs, plans being made to install elec- tric power. The watchman discovered the blaze when not of great propor- tions, but due to iack of steam the fire alarm whistle could not be sound- ed, and to get assistance he called upon those who resided nearby to aid him in fighting the blaze. The Alert Hook and Ladder company was called from Westerly, and. as soon as the watchman at the Potter Hill mill saw the blaze he sent in an alarm. The people of the village turned out and a line of hose was stretched from the hill and a stream did effective work in checking the progress of the bla As thera was no stéeam at the Cla works the fire pump there could not be operated. It is fires of this nature where the triple-action motor apparatus to he installed at Watch Hill will come in- to play, provided the Watch Hili fire placed on the wall in the lower hall of Bacon academy which contains the names of those who have been late donors to the academy fund.

He couldn't produce and he was invited to the po- lice station. When arraigned In the Third distriet court. he paid a fine of $5 and costs of $3.80. The driver of the other car produced his license.

End;s Dyspepsia And Stomach Troubles the Stomach Neutralizes Dangerous Aclds That Cause Indigestion, Gas wnd Heart- burn. Tt is useless. dangerous and unnec: sary to be tortured with the sou assv. burning pains of indigestion: eartburn, gastritis and dyspepsia when a teaspoonful or a few tablets of ordinary Bisurated Magnesia taken in a little water will promptly end ths trouble without hurting the stomach in any way. Bisurated gnesia quickly masters digestive Zisturbances becauss it reaches the real source of stomach trouble—an excess of acid in the stomach which poisons and irritates the stomach lining and causes the partially digested food to sour, fer- ment and burn. Bisurated Magnesia soaks right down into vour acid-in- flamed stomach and quickly cleans out and neutralizes every trace of eéxcess acid that is present. cools, soothes and heals the stomach walls and makes the food contents bland and sweet. All the pain and discomfort, the gas wind, sour rising ard full. bloated feeling vanish like magic. ~You can almost hear your stomach sav “thank you.” Relieved of the acid, your food digests naturally and painlessly. You eat what you please and never fear indigestion. t does not matter whether you have only occasional attacks or Fave a long- standing chronic case of stomach trou- ble. it 1s practically impossible to take Bisurated Magnesia without results, The genuine Bisurated Magnesia is digpenved by leading drusgists every- where in both tablet and powder form.
