Several Willimantic people would not make good soldiérs, for they are so averse to going near a dead body that they would not bury a dead cat which was lying in the yards. One such lay on Jackson street Saturday and Sunday “and although several complained about it, it was not dis- posed of until Monday afternoon. An- cther was reported in a yard on Main street and when a complaint was made to the police department, the com- plainers were referred to the city health officer, Dr. Michael Riordan, but hey evidently thought that they have to bury the carcass anyway, a they did not call up Dt. Riordan. CHANGES ANNOUNCED In List of Men Who Are to Leave on Thursday.

Miss Boomhower, who is the visiting nurse, s particularly pléased over and grate- ful for the co-operation shown gener- ally in making the health programme of which the baby weighing procedure was a part such a decided success. Miss Boomhower is mow at work on the report that will review in a com- prehensive way what was done in the campaign and the lessons to be gained from it. IMPUDENT TO OFFiCIALS, Motorists Show Disrespect For Auto- mobile Inspectors, Until Pinched. Marked disrespect for the law and the officials who are charged Wwith the enforcement of it is being encountered by automobile inspectors who have heen working in this district during the_past f,#; days, and it would seem that the oniy remedy that will bring some imjudent and swaggering motor- ists to their semses is the filing of a permissible list of charges against them and having an assessment of magnitude imposed against them in court, with a jail sentence thrown in for good measure. Some of the men who have been held up on the highways for the in- spections to which they are at _all times subject by state inspectors Mave almost run over the inspectors before they would halt the cars and then have opened with a tirade of abuse and have flatly refused to obey in- spectors’ instructions and have told the officers to zet out of the way and not bother them; also that they were in a hurry and could not be bothered showing licenses and, in one instance, threatened to shoot an inspector, . a minute afterwards eating the words and saying that nothing was meant by the remark. One particularly fresh voungster from Moosup, who afterwards begged for mercy and whined as a whipped cir always whines, refused to shut his engine down or otherwise obey the in- spector’s wishes that he mizht carry out the law of the state. Another man, evidently a man of wealth, also a man who was drunk directed his chauffeur to drive on and not mind those d— fools. Tt understood that the inspectors have stood as much of this kind of performing as they may be. expected to, and that those who try it hereaft- er will be very sorry that they did not act as decent Americans should act toward state officials. Officials Should Wear Uniforms. The state automobile department is very lame on one point, however. Au- tomobilists are a unit in declaring that the department should uniform its in- spectors. Today an inspector who is without a umiform may vell at a mo- torist speeding toward him on a good stretch of suburban highway to stop and the chances are about even that the motorist either gives him the "laugh, 100ks out in wonderment or yells back at him to go to the hot place. This has happened many, many times. At night matters are even worse. A redlight flashes In the road and the driver of an_approaching car begins to wonder “Well, what's up now?" Only a small percentage of drivers have encountered inspectors®at work and a man without a uniform ap- proaching them after holding them up starts many arguments. Drivers feel that the state ean af- ford to uniform its inspectors and that it should do so. Tt is felt that the in- spectors are doing a very valuable work and should be hampered as little as possible. Uniforming them would remove one of the greatest handicaps under which they” work and deal with the driving publi FROM HOT CITY Thirteen Lucky Kiddies Come Un to Wondeérland of Real Country Joys. _Thirteen children from New York city aré in homes in Danielson, East Killingly and Fast Brooklyn for two weeks' stay.

PUTNAM Everybody Wilts in Monday’s Hot Wave—Court Finds Error in Union Block Case—City Officials to Bor- row $75000'to Extend Water Ser- vice—Albanian Stabbed by Friend. Ptk This city fairly sizzled under, the sun’s premier effort of the summer on Monday. Real conservative thermo- meters began to hoot along toward the century mark Jate in_the forenoon and at 3 o'ciock, really 2 o'clock by sun time about every instrument in the city that was exposed to the sunm's rays was trying for the century mark. At the City hotel on South Main street where the thermometer was looking the sun square in the face, the mer- cury climbed up to an even 100. Employes in the factories of “the town found the heat particularly try- ing and at the close of the day’s work many of them admitted that they were practically all in. Out on the farms, however, there was rejoicing. The corn crop was. be- ing benefited after a season that has been exceptionally backward for this crop. COURT FINDS ERROR IN UNION BLOCK CASE Judge Maltbie Hands Down Decision Which is to Tenant's Advantage. Judge Maltbie of the superior court has handed down a decision in the case of ‘the Union Block company vs. Christus Terzis, one of the plaintiff's tenants, The court finds that there was erfor in the legal proceedings in the case, heard before Justice George Potvin and a jury in this city. There has been more than passing interest in this case because of the fact that it involves the effort of the Union Block company to secure the jection by summary process of one of the tenants in the business block that had the matter in charge here. Liberal Collection For French Or- phans.

Clifford Green, who became involved in difficulties in Willimantic, formerly lived in this town, but of até has been at_Norwich. Monday afternoon brought to this town a temperature of 98 degrees in the sun—good weather to help along the belated and stunted corn crop. Leslie Murray, Hartford, visited here Monday with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. P. F. Murray. Mr, and Mrs. L. E. Kennedy are en- tertaining Miss Dorothy St. Onse, of Providence. Henry C. Vincent of New Bedford was a visitor with friends in Daniel- son Monday. Playgrounds Open. Groups of children were at the new playgrounds at the graded school on Monday morning, enjoying sames un- der the direction of leaders, Patriotic societies of Danielson will be at Alexander'’s lake for an outing Wednesday. Terrence Brennan, youngest son of Mrs. Eliza Jane Brennan, who enlisted in the Mechanical Department of the U. S. navy, visited at the home of his mother in Dayville, Sunday, prepara- tory to resuminz his dutles at New- that it owns, at Union square. The quarters occupied by Terzis were to be used as part of the proposed new postoffice quarters. Terzis has a lease to run for a_considerable fimd of time yet, but the cori] imed that the lease was !gda null and void when Terszis, in the city court, some time ago, pleaded guilfy to a technical chargé of allowing gambling in his place—betting on the outcome of pool games. In his decision, which leaves open to the . Union Block company threé courses—abandonment of the suit, starting of a new suit or an appeal to the supreme court—Judge altbie says in substance: Much, undoubtedly, may be forgiven to a lay justice presiding at a jury trial. But, however much 1 may sym- pathize, in view of the difficult ques- tions presented and able arguments which were certainly made, Witi the unfortunate position in which the jus- tice in this case was placed, I cannot approve a charge which fails entirély to explain the principles of law in- volved. Passing by all the incidents of relationship between these parties the last, we find this situation: On March 13th, a notice was scrved upon the plaintiff in error that he quit possession on the first of April. On April 2nd, the plaintiff in error gave to the defendant in error his check to pay the rent for one month, that month being, in point of fact, April; ang this check the défendant in error took into his possession and held for a time. The acceptance of rent by a landlord for a period in advance con- tinues the tenamcy during that period. The taking of rent money into his pos- session is evidence, perhaps prima fa- cie evidence, of the acceptance of rent. But acceptance implies more than the mere taking into possession: it In- volves the will to acknowledge the money as in fact rent for the period in_question. Consegpuently the bare taking is open to explanation. In this case, the plaintiff in error was entitled to have these principles explained to the jury. To be sure, the evidence, as written, strongly points to the conclusion that there was, on the part of the defendant in error, mo will to accept. However, the issue in- volved is one of fact for a jury to de- termine and I cannot assume its func- tions, If all the other contentions of the defendant in error are correct, it still remains that the plaintiff in error might have prevailed, had the jury received proper instructions upon this one issue. There is error.
