The time limit for the filing of claims is confusing to many of the men, espe- cially those who do not read their tices thoroughly. clause relating to exemptions in notice of call reads as foliows: Any claim for exemption or dis- charge must be made on forms which may be procured at the office of tifis local board, and must be filed at the office of this local board on or before the seventh day after the date of m: ing this notice. The date of malling the notices was Aug. 15, thus making Aug. 22 the last date for allowance of exemption ciaims. Thie clause has fofied many who did not kead thoroughly their notices and when they come to the hoard for claime they are not allowed unless they can absolutely prove that their notice was received late o- from other just causes. Fven then they are toM that they will be notified later by the board whether their claims being late will be allowed or not. It is left entire- Iy with the local board. Third 326 Newhall D.

There was only one case “brought before Judge Coit in the police court Thursday morning, and the offender was no stranger to the court. Samuel Troland was the man—the charge was that of common drunkenness. Since December of last year Troland has been before the court every month, with the exception of January and February. On each occasion the charge has been intoxication. And cach time Troland has entered a plea of not gullty, only to ho convicted and sent to the workhouse. The last time the man wax sent up was on June 14, and the period of confinement was 60 davs. Yesterday was the last day of his term, and he was alowed to leave the jail some time in the morning, ana immediately startea for. the Union station, to get a train for Norwich. Unfortimnately, however, Troland met some old “friends,” who urged him to spend some of his money for a cer- tain “amber brew.” The result of meeting with his friends in a_Brad- ley street saloon was that Troland £0t too great a load to carry com- fortably. so he became srouchy and was thrown out of the place. Just at this time Patrolman Howard came along and found that the man was in a badly intoxicated condition, and was lMkely ‘to be injured if he remained on the street, so took him to the po- Hce station. Troland' promised Judge Coit to =ive up drinking for the rest of his natu- ral life if the court would allow him to go this time. But the court told the man that he had made the same promise : on several other occasions, but had always failed to keep it. Tro iand then told the court that if he was given his freedom today he would immediately look for work. But Judge Coit said he was sure that the only work that Troland couid do pro- perly was in the workhouse, and to Thomas O’'Connell Asks $5,000 Personal Injuri For The Shore Line FElectric Railway Co. is made the defendant in a_suit brought by Thomas O'Connell of Ston- ington for $5,000 for personal injur- ies recaived in a trolley accident.
