Kelly was arrested in Ni for carrying concealed was-sent to jail for 10 days from the New London police court. The description of Kelly tallios ia nearly every respect with that of Lev- ens for whom the Providcnee police have been searching for a year and an officer from the Rhode Isiand city is on his way to New London to lobk at ew London eapons and the man jailed under the name of Kelly. About a vear ago Levens, in com- pany with eeveral other men were being taken from the police station in Providence to the jall at Cranston. The prisoners were in a patrol wagoa and made a break for linecty, one of them said to be Levens, shooting and wounding the officer who was in charge of the patrol wagon. All the men_ involved in the affair were rounded up Wwith the exception of Levens and for him the Providencs police have made a country-wide search which the local police believe is now ended. When_ arrested in Dufrense’s saloon the in Gradley street, New London, man who gives the name cf Kelly 7 tempted to rut up a fight with Pa- trolman Murphy. When the policeman took him by the arm Kely landed a right hand punch on the jaw of the policeman.

GAVE READY HELP FOR HELPLESS CHILDREN While we are rejoicing over the suc- cess of the great war work drive it is also good to make mention of the i- | quick response made by Norwich peo- ple for the relief of those suddenly af- fiicted by the recent epidemic in our own town. It is not possible to give the names &£ those who gave of their time, their services and their money and mater- ials for the benefit of such families, but it i5 well known that all the phy- icians and nurses were most gener- ous in supplementing fie work of the Backus hospital, at the Bushnell cha- pel, and in private homes. Too much cannot be said in praise of their self-denying services. Through the kindness of the com- mittee in charge of the -Second Con- gregational church; the Rock Nook Children’s Home was permi‘ted to use 2s an emergency house the commodi- ous parsonage, 59 Church street, where children whose parents were suffer- ing from the epidemic might find a temporary sheiter. It was not necessary to make a public appeal for this purpose, for, as scon as the plan was made known gifts of money, amounting in all to $384.20) offers of expert service and household supplies of every kind were freely given or lent for the occasion. Suitable fables and chairs for lit- tle people, with other furnishings were cupplied from the Sunday school rosm of the Second courch, so that it was necessary to spend but little, except for the daily supplies of food and clothing. Under the care of excellent, kindly women of experience, twelve children were cared for during the five weeks that the emergency house was cpen. Of these nime had.lost ons or hoth parents during the epidemic and all nad been so exposed-to the <lisease that they could not safely be aliowed te join the family at Rock Nook. It was indeed a sad group of pale- faced bewilered little children thus suddenly brought together, but in a shert time a happy transformation ‘was seen. Plenty of pure milk helped to bring color into the pale cheeks. and tender loving care broke down the barriers of lencliness and difi- dence. At the end of a month several of the children found homes with sur- viving friends whilo six were taken to the Rock Nook Home, whore their families may still make some pay- ment for their support. and continue tc share the pleasures ind ths respon- sibility of the relation. We may congratulate the people of Norwich on the readiness with which they lent their hands to helv these j helpless little ones. LOUISA & Rock Secretary Home.

RED CROSS READY TO BE “GREATEST MOTHER" The American Red Cross is ready to act as the “Greatest Mother” for the thousands of fighting men in France Wwho have na “nearest relatives” to send them Christmas parcels. The Cross will fill cartons and send’ them at once. A great many labels have been re- ceived at Red Cross headguarters in ‘Washington properly addresNd, but sent from France to the Red Cross be- cause the seader has no one in this country from whom he can recetve a parcel. These labels are to be dis- tributed to the Division Headquarters of the Red Cross and will be sent out by these offices to a limited number of chapters. The Atlantic Division, which covers the states of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, has been supplied with these labels and plans have been perfected whreby th men who sent them will rceive parcels. The Division plans to send the labels to chapters neir New York, which will fill car- tons with gifts- attach the labels and send them overseas as 3oon as possi- ble. In this way most of the soldier in_the trenches or training camps across the water will be supplied with Christmas gifts. The Red Cross has also vlanned to provide many of the soldiers who are in hospitals’ with Christmas cartons. It has been found that these men have been unable to send labels, although they are entitled to them. To meet their requirements, the Ped €ross is filling some 50,000 cartons without la- bels and will send them to France fo® distribution in the hospitals by the Red Cross. These eartons will be fill- ed by local chapters near Atlantic Di vislon headquarters in Ned York cit; Through the several different ar- rangements made to forward the ear- tons, it is believed every soldier of the American Expeditionary Forces in France, Belgium or Germany will re- ceive a Christmas parcel. A time ex- tension of ten days, te November 3¢ for filling cartons has been given, and a plan has been perfssted whereby the nearest relative of a soldier who is entitled to send a package but has roceived no Iabel, may secure a la- CONNECTICUT LED ALL IN WAR PICTURE SHOWS Connectieut was the oniv state in the Union which. during the war, showed moving pictures issued by the Cotn- mittee on Pubiic Information in Was| ington, without financial lose.
