DANIELSON " For the first time during the pres- ent war military honors will be paid at_the 1 of one of Danielson’s soldiers—Private George Beaney—to- day.” The body is to lie in state at St. Alban's church from 11 to 12.48{] A detail of soldiers from Fort Wright and a detail from the Niath Separate company, State Guard, will éonstitute a guard of honor. The soldlers also will act as escort in the funeral pro- cession. Private Beaney, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Beaney, died- of in- fluenza Sunday at Camp Merritt, N. J, from which cantonment he had in- tended to proceed ‘immediately - over- seas'with the organization with which he had trained at Camp Revere; Mass. Willtam Poulmenakos, a resident of the West Side, was befors Justice Frank M, Bedard of the town of Brooklyn Tuesday evening to amswer to a thatge ‘of ‘having failed fo com- ply with the statutory requirements reiative to sending children to school ——in this case the delinquent being the defendant’s son, Peter, 13, who, it was represented has been employed recently in a-Massachusetts town, and presumably in a factory. A.-W. Bu- chanan, ak agent of the state board of education, investigated the case and caused the appearance in court of the elder Poulmenakés. Mr. Bucha- nan stated that he had learned that the boy, who should have been in school, has been going away from here after Sunday evening to work in a Massachusetts town.and has been returning on Saturdays. ‘In the East Brooklyn school, Mr. Buchanan said, the boy had advanced to the fifth grade in three yvears, showing that he was an _intelligent pupil and would have continued to do well education- aily had he not been robbed of his rights in that respect. -The court fined Poulmenakos and the boy will be re- turned to school, it is- understood. Though there is a pressure for ad- ditional employes in many big plants in Connecticut and elsewhere in New ‘England at the present time, the agents of the state board of educa- tion are scrupulously carrying out the letter of the law in seeing to it that no young person of school years is permitted to work, unless granted the necessary certificate permitting ~him to leave school and to labor, and the sranting of such certificates is hedged about with many safeguards. Death continues to take its toll in Killingly as the result of the preva- lence of Spanish -influenza. One more death was reported Tuesday morning —that of Mrs. Rose Balcom, 36, of Attawaugan, who died during _the night. Mrs, Balcom’s daughter, Ros- amond, died with the same disease a few days ago, her funeral Leing held Monday at St, Joseph’s church, Day- ville, Edward Fitzgerald, for many years a resident of the town of Brooklyn, where he owned a_place at the foot of Bush hill, died Tuesday morning at his home on Reynolds street, Daniel- son. Mr. Fitzgerald left the farm some months, on account of failing health, and with Mrs, Fitzserald, came to Danielson to make his home. He was a native of Ireland, but had spent practically all his life in this country, and for neatly half a cen- tury there has been few of Brooklyn's residents more widely known. Though the active years of his life were spent in farming, he found the time to form hundreds of acquaintznces. It ha been said of him that he never forgor a.friend, and in times of stress and trouble many have had cause to ap- preciate his friendship. It is prob- able that during his long lifetime he attended as many, if not more, fu- nerals than an n in his home town, oiten driving miles to pay a last tribute of respect to he knew. Mr. Fitzgerald was of St. James parish. He wife and the following James, of Hampton Gracely, of New Jerse lyn; Mrs. Charles M erine Kiley and Miss gerald, those his children: Mrs, Nellie Join, Brook- rtin, Mrs, Kath- Margaret Fitz- Il of Danielson.

The first claim ever filed in this district for exemption from acttive first line service, on the ground of concientious scruples against war, has heen received by tha Jocal board from a Killingly young man. It was stated Tuesday that the registrant in ques- tion has expressed a willingness to serve Unele Sam, preferring assign- ment to the quartermaster'’s depart- ment, but willing to go into any non- combatant branch. e was fully pre- pared in filling out his_questionnzire to answer all the special questions he was required to answer and otherwise gave evidence that he was not a slack- er and that his claim was legitimate under the terms of the selective ser- viee act. First Selectman Marshall J. Frink of the town of Canterbury has de- clined a renomination for his present office from the republicah parly and after next Monday's town election will retire from a position that he has filled with such splendid _executive ability and good business judgment as to merit and possess the gratitude of his fellow townsmen. Mr. Frink said Tuesday that he is retiring from pub- lic office after serving Canterbury, at different times, over a period of sev- eral years, He has duties that will keep him in Canterbury, but expresses a desire to engage in some special occupation that will aid in the win- ning of the war. There are a num- ber of towns hereabouts that would be fortunate in getting Mr, Frink's services in some of the positipns that have become known as war offices. The annual town reports, which have been prepared and published, show some interesting iigures rela- tive to the town farm, including heavy revenues, which help, in very large measure, to offset the gross mainte- nance costs. During the fiscal year covered by the reports, up to August 1, 1918, the gross expenses were. $7,- £21.44. " The receipts at the farm amounted to $3,307.50. Of the receipts $1271.53 was from milk sold, $131.60 from the sale of milk and seed corn, $586.75 from the sale of eggs, $861.75 Too Tired To Work? \If you get up in the morning tired, if you weary with little exertion and if vim ahd go are lacking, depend upon it that your liver is torpid.

Danielson. families began to pay more for their milk Tuesday morn- ing, Oct. 1. The prevailing price here now is 12 cents per quart, represent- ing a one cent advance. The boosting of the price did not cause a flurry. It is high price, it-is generally remark- ed, but not out of proportion to what is ‘being received for other commodi- ties of much smaller food value. Mrs. E, H. Keach, chairman of the woman's committee on Liberty loan and her assistant workers were out hustling again Tuesday at top speed, and getting many subscriptions. Mrs. Keach stated in the morning that her workers had reported $5200 in sub- scriptions for the precedinz day, this mnglng their total in excess of $63,- The health situation did not appear to be much different here Tuesday from that on preceding days for the past week. New cases of infiuenza were being reported, but the hope was expressed that they will not prove more serious than they have here in Danielson, where fatal results have been very few and far between. PUTNAM Acting as a®representative of the Travelers' Aid society, Mrs. W. J. Bartlett made public Tuesday after- noon the fact that she kad received telegraphic information that relatives of young men who may be taken ill at Camp Devens will be met at the Ay station by army ambulance and hurrie to the cantonment. This service Wwill| be rendered to relatives who receive war department telegrams informing them of the illness of their soldier res- atives. For people of this county the best time to leave for Ayer is on the 110 p. m. train out of Putnam. This train is due at Worcester at 2.15 and the train with which it connects is due at Ayer at 3.26. War department telegrams announcing a case of illness should be taken along, as they will be recognized as passes by all guards at the cantonment. ‘Where a number of persons may g0 out together from Putnam a telegram sent by them to the Travelers' Aid representative at the Worcester sta- tion will result in arrangementsbeing made to have ample transportation at the station for them when they arrive at Ayer. Prisoners facing _criminal charges were before Judze Kellozg at the opening of tha October superior court here Tuesday morning Prayer at the opening of court was of- fered by Rev. George C. S. MacKay, pastor_of the Baptist church of this city. Charles 1. Searls acted in his capacity of state attorney and Charles L. Torrey as public defender. No sen- tence more severe than six months in jail was imposed on any of the accus- ©d, this being given Arthur B. Ham- lin, formerly a clerk at the Putnam inn. . Hamlin pleaded guilty to the embez- 7lement. of $335.24 . from ~ Earl C. Rogers, proprietor of the Putnam inn, it Deing charged that the crime w; commitied .on the night of March 21 last. In reviewing the case for the court Mr. Searls said that Hamlin was se- cured for the pcgition as a clerk at the inn through an employmen: agency. Hamlin, Mr. Searls stated, had been 2t the inn only about six or seven day: when he took the money and disap- peared, going to Frovidehce in a hir- ed automobile, it has since been learn- ed, after closing the hotel soon after midnight. He was on duty alone that night and took what money was in the safe and in the cash register be- fore his departure. After many weeks e nad heen located as a messman on a steamer plying between Porto Rice and New York, and recently he-was ar- rested at Yonkers and_brought back to Putnam, pleading guilty in the city court to the crime charged against him. A’ sketch of Hamlin's histggy was brought out through question asked in court of him by ‘Attorney Torrey, acting as his counsel. Hamlin said he was born at Calais, Maine, and that he had been a bookkeeper most of his life, He is 52 vears of age. Prior to coming to Putnam he had been employed by an automobile company "t Buffalo. He had previous experience as_a hotel clej Hamlin said: “T must have been crazy when I took the money; it was all due to a woman, who wrote me and asked me to get it and come with her to set up a home. I took the money and went to her and gave the money into her possession. Then she told me T could go to m—1! I was practically on the bum then, so shipped as a messman on a steamer bound for France. Later I transferred to anoth- er boat on the Porto Rico route.” Hamlin offered to.make restitution if permitted to go under a suspended sentence or on probation, saying that $100 was due him for service he had rendered on the ships. Mr. Searls said that he did not wish to be vindictive, but felt that some punishment should be inflicted on Hamlin, who, as an intelligent man, was more responsible for what he had done than would some poor unfortunate of a lower order of society. Hamlin knew better, Mr. Searls said, and he came to Futnam to accept a position of trust. Nevertheless he stole the money and cleared out, and it did not appear from his ssubsequent actions that his conscience troubled him, for e made no effort to return and ad- just the difficulty in which he found himself. Further he went away with a dissolute woman, showing a moral weakness in this respect. Mr. Searls recommended a sentence of six months in jail and this was imposed by the court. George Beecher, 22, Wiilimantic, pleaded zuilty to a charge of assauft on a minor female, Sarah L. Kpapp, 15, at Willimantic, May 13. In his be- half it was stated that the young wo- man had been known as a “soldiers and sailors’ girl” and that her repu- tation had not been‘'of the best; furth- er, Mr. Torrey told the court, the young woman appeared to be much older than she really was.. Because of these things Mr. ‘Torrey claimed clemency for Beecher, who is in the draft. Judge Kellogg ordered him com- mitted to the state reformatory at Cheshire. Nathan Weisinger, Moosup, pleaded not guilty to a charge of bulgary and theft. His case will be tried lated. ‘Weisinger is accused of breaking into the place of business of W. H. Hay- ward in Moosup on the night of June 14, between 1 and 3 a. m., and taking automoble tires, tubes and other ar- ticles t othe value of $512.

Over in Ashford they picked him up in August, charging him with the theft of a small quantity of melted ice cream, Mr. Searls stated, as he nolled the case. Wilcox seemed to be in a daze, and it, was stated that he had spoken very few words since he was committed to jail. He was patently unfit to care for himself, so arrange- ments were made to commit him to the town farm here, until further ar- ments can be made for his care. He is likely to become a state pauper, it was said by court officials, for he never has gained a residence in Con- necticut.
