Truck on West Thames Street and Run Over—WuRnlmgonRunmng Board When Truck Swerved Into Telegraph Pole. John D, H\!xhes a laborer, who was riding on an automebile truck of the Peck-McWilliams Co. on West Thames street, mear the corner of Spring Gar- den avenue, sustained what proved to be fatal injuries about 4 o'- clock on Friday afternoon when he was thrown from the truck and run over. He was hurried to the Backus hospital as soon as possible after- wards, and he died 20 minutes after he had reached there. Hughes was riding on the running board of the machine at the time of the accident and the truck was driven by Richard Raymond who was bring- ing a load of kindling wood to the city from the Norwich tuberculosis sanitarium where the company is do- ing some building work. As the truck came along West Thames street at the point of the accident, it was thrown vioiently sideways by hitting a stone or some other obstruction in the road. Hughes was pinched off the runming board by a ielesraph pole which the truck grazed and he fell under the truck so that one of the rear wheels passed over his abdomen. The man was terribly crushed about the abdomen and hips and quickly lipsed into an unconscious condition. Driver Raymond telephoned to the _M.lcompany’s office for help and Frank D. Davis responded at once and got word to: the Backus hospital after he had reached the injured man. Super- intendent F. Leon Hutchins came from the hospital in his automobile and took Hughes back in the machine to the hospital. Hughes, who recently has been liv- ing in a boarding house on North Thames street and before that lived on North Main street near the gas works, had been working for the Peck-McWilliams company in the morning on Friday but had been paid off at noon. It is understood that he was not in the employ of the com- pany at the time of the accident but had gone down with the truck for a ride with Driver Raymond who had Robert. Frost with him to help him with the load. Frost was riding in the seat with Raymond at the time of the accident but Hughes had pre- férred to ride on the running board, it is understcod. Driver Raymond is spoken of by his emplovers as habit- ually careful in the handling of the truck. Hughes, who was ahout 40 years old, was unmarried and it could not be learned last night that he had any relatives. He had formerly lived in the Greeneville district with 3 brother who died several weeks ago. This is the second accident In two days with a truek of the Peck-Mec- Williams company, thouzgh it was an- other truck cn Thursday when Bur- ton Thomas, a draughtsman in the employ of the company, broke his wrist while cranking the machine which he had volunteered to handle for a trip because the regular driver was away for the day to attend a pic- nie. TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM SETTLED FOR FAIR County Exhibit Is Now Looking For- ward to Its Best Year. With opportunities for real service never greater, the management of the New, London County Fair are putting forth extraordinary efforts this year to make the sixty-fourti annual fair of the Agricultural Society the great- est ever held. At the outset of 1918 there was more or less doubt as’ to the status of fairs as regards trans- portation and other problems that are |the result of the unusuai conditions now confronting the country, but afl doubts were soon cleared away, and it was made plain that the national gov- ernment wisely took the view that fairs were an educational institution and as such-should recsive every en- couragemeni. This policy has since been consistently followed by the gov- crnment witn the result that what at first looked-like a poor year for fairs now has every indication of being the banner year. Not only has the government am- ranged for the transportation of live stock and other things necessary for the fairs, but it has also gone to the expense of preparing comprehensive exhibits showing the work of various government departmeris, and these will be shown throushout the country, particularly at the state fairs. While devoting much space to the educational and instructive exhibits the county fair management realize that their patrons demand a. fair share of entertainment and in this line ample provision has besn made. At- tractions this year will be in a higher class than ever, due possibly to the rling of the railroad administration that only clean shows would be given transportation, although the sentiment for cleaner and better entertamment kas been growing steadily stronger each year. Taken as a whole the fair officials have set a splendid ex:mple for the American people. In the face of con- ditions that might well be expected to discourage and dishearten, they have gone ahead with their work with a confidence that has heen inspiring, and the good that is tc come from their efforts is beyond measure. SATURDAY NIGHT HGURS TO ENROLL STUDENT NURSES Special Extra Hours From 7.30 On Are Appointed For Tonight. Upon the suggestion that a Satur- day evening hour would accommodate better a number of those who might enroil in the student nurse reserve, tiose in charge of the enrollment campaign here have appointed the hours this Saturday evening, from 7.30, till the store closes tonight, an attendant will be at the enrollment station at the Plavt-Cad- den store on Main street to re names or give informaticn to any men desiring to Jearn what the call is. Enrollments will also be received at the previous regularly appointed hours jof 12 to 1 and 5 to 6 n. m. Already three or four names have been received and the committe¢ has information of a who will soon place iheir names on |the list for the student nurse reserve. Those who have served at the en- rollment station so far include Mrs. Elizabeth P. Davis, Miss Marian Be Miss Rose Beckley, Miss Mollie FINED FOR THEFT OF FINISHING CO.

This will make room for enrolling more seamen who can qualify for free training to become deck officers in the merchant marine. Connecticut or Long Island seamen who wish to enter should apply at once direct to Prof. Frederick hlocum, instructor, at the school, which is in the Y, M. C. A building. The present class consists mainly of seamen from New London New Erit- ain and Derby. The school is not for landsmen. The first aim of all the shipping board’s free navigation schools is to help a man zet his first license, and . thus establish him as a licensed officer in the merchant ma- rine: but the schools are also open to lcensed men who feel the need of brushing up cn their navigation as a step totvard an advance in grade. These schools are a short cut from the forecastle to the bridge. It is es- timated that 4,000 masters and mates are needed for the new merchant ma- rine. STEAMER FREIGHT HAS DROPPER OFF LATELY But Kay Steamship Company May Put On Another Boat Later. Some time ago a form letter was circulated among local merchants with whether or not to a view of finding out they had encugh freight to ship New York to warrant the Kay Tra portation company putting on another steamer. Since that time there has been a falling off in ceived at the local office for steamer Hart so tho proposed steamer hag not been put on the yet. There is a possibility that other steamer will be put on the line lzter and this boat will stop at the various plants along the river apd pick up their freight. the new line an- FAIR EXHIBITORS WILL PAY ONE WAY On Intra-State Shipments — Return Transpertation For Nothing. Bntries at the county fair have teen greatly stimulated by the ruling recently promulgated by Edward Champers. director of the division of traffic, United States Railread Admin- istration, for the free return of ex- hibits. Py this ruling exhibitors will have to pay transportation charges only one way, the government trans- por€ing exhibits baclk to the point from which they originated without charge. The plan relates only to intra-state shipments. . SEEKS DIVORCE. Claime Husband Was Cruel from D-y They Married. On the grounds of intolerable cruel- ty since Sept. 15, 1912, Mrs. Mary Maruzzo, whose maiden name was Matry, has brought suit for divorce from Louis Maruzzo of Nerwich. They were married on the date from which Mrs. Maruzzo alleges the intolerabie v began. The wife asks custody two Loys, aged 6 and 3, and also wants permission to resume her maiden name. Boilermakers Needed for Navy. The navy recruiting station, 86 State street, New London, is sendinz out an urgent call for boilermakers, ages 21 to 35. Applicants for this rating must be competent boilermakers by trade. Until recentiy men were enlisted as boilermakers to fill vacancies only, but orders have been received at this sta- tion to accept all competent boiler- makers that are found physically qual- ified. Enlistment is for the duration of the war only, pay $77.i0, a complete outfit of uniform clothing is provided free, including bedding and other neces- saries. A letter will be mailed upon request containing full information regarding qualifications for enlistment, evidence of citizenship or birth, releases from local boards, ete. Men recejving this information will save themséives time ‘and trouble if they contemplate enlist- ing. In some cases men travel a long way. only to meet with disappointment when rejected at the recruiting station for some defect or irregularity. Sent Aspinall’s Body to Plzinfield.

Landers, chairman of the committee of food supply, emphatical- Iy denies that the Connecticut state council of defense, the food adminis- tration, or any other department of the government, either planned or contem- plated the seizure of canned fruits and canned vegetables. Mr., Landers said he could not understand how such a rumor originated, but here's what hap- pened on Thursday: A Waterbury woman telephoned the college at Storrs that she had a peck of peaches and that they might as well come get them now as to wait for hef to can them. 3 The canning campaign in Connecti- cut was inaugurated for the sole pur- pose of saving for next winter's use every possible pound of foodstuff and to make Goubly sure that Connecticut measurad up to her full quota of 5,000,000 quarts of fruits and vegeta- bles. The committee of foofl supply working with the farm bureaus® or- ganized the Connecticut canning corps. The committee issued 200,000 enroll- ment cards that have been distributed in every town and county in the state. ©On every one of these cards was print- ed a plain statement from the food ad- ministration that no heme canned products would be seized by the gov- ernment. Every housewife in the state has been ursed to enlist and to indi- cate the number of quarts she expected to_can, but there has never been any official suggestion or intention to requisition the canned products of housewives and home gardeners. The state council of defense does not know how to make this matter plainer; it brands propaganda of this sort as ab- solutely malicious and untrue; it urges every housewife and home gardener who is approached or told that their canned products are subject to draft or requisition to promptly telephone the committee of food supply at 48 Lewis street, Hartford.
