Tt IR B R T W RR AN A R Teey v ] FE PR esiv ety it PR FOREISEIL TN e Everett W. Willis, Charged —— | Bverstt W. Charlestown, arrested Tuesday by Sheriff John R. ‘Wileox, and with larceny, and who pleaded not ity, and has been held in the jail, was brought into the district court, Friday. Jnaga &yilliams ke sald he had Jio attorney. Then the complaints were read to him, in this ‘Willis was charged with stealing two plgs vaiued at $18 from Oliver Gavitt, n Kingstot South wn, on the night of March 22, He pleaded not guilty to the charge. The second sharge was then read to him, accusing him with breaking and eptering in the night time, the garage of Joseph Champlin, at Charlestown. March 22, and steling therefrom, the following. Three bags of phosphate, to the value of $9; auto tire and rim, $8; robe, $10;+ pump, $4; tire chains, $4; wrench, 50 cents; screw driver, cents; and all of the vaiue of $35.75. He entered a plea of not suilty, but was not ready. Then came the third and last charge, Sherifft John R. Wilcox withholding many other charges that could be pre- ferred. He was charged with break- ing and entering the Charlestown schoolhouse and stealing a clock val- ued at $10. Willis then said: “I want an_attorney.” Judge Williams granted him the op- portunity and immediately he ar- * ranged with Attorney Ledwedge to de- fend him. After a short consuitation, Mr. Ledwidge stated to the court that as he had just been called into the case he was not ready to go into a trial and asked that the case be con- tinued for one week. Town Solicitor Agard represented the state, saying that Willis had ample opportunity, but neglected to secure counsel. He sald the witnesses for the state were in the court room’ and it was hardly fair to put them to more expense and inconvenience, and he be- Jieved the case could go on and no ad- vantage taken of the agcused Judge Willlams ordered the continued for one week. cases Patsy Vito, charged with assaulting John P‘l"g entered a plea of nolo. His counsel, John J. Dunn, said there was o doubt but a minor assault had been committed, so he advised his client to plead nolo and put himself upon the mercy of the court. The assault he said was committed at the railway ed there. No matter how faithful he was about his work, this boss made it unpleasant for him. A few days be- fore the assault was committed, and after Vito's discharge, Mills circulated a report that Vito had stolen cloth from the mill. Vito met Mills on the depot platform and asked him what he meant by circglating a report that the @ccused was a thief and had stolen . cloth from the mi]l. Mills raised his hands and told Vito to go away. It was then that Vito struck Mills just once and no more. Mr. Dunn suggest- ‘ed that the impesition of a small fine |s would satisfy the ends of justice, and asked the court to consider the humil- jation of Vito, upon being branded as a thief, and that he was of good repu- With Thefts From Pigs to| Clocks, Has Case Continued a Week - Discharged Workmen Fined For Assaulting.

The total for the state is now between $10,000- and $11,000. In Providence only $3,000, or 37.5 ber cent. of the quota has been raised, due perhiaps to certain standing bene- fits at Easter time, which made it in- advisable to press the ca.mpzds-n at the start.
