At a session of the town court held Monday morning, Judge W. Femmer Woodward sentenced Robert Yancy of Philadelphia. to serve 180 days in the county jall at Brookiyn and to pay the costs of $19.64, after Yancy had plead- ed guilty to stealing two watches of a total value of $52 from Nasom (Doc) Oatey, n roomer at a Main street board- ing house where Yamay lhiad secured lodging Saturday night. The watches have been recovered and returmed to Mr. Oatley. % In szplanation of his act Yancy stated in court that he was out of work and broke and that he was just naturaily in the state of nilnd where he declded he had to have something of value, so took Mr, Oatley’s two watches and made off before other members of the household had awakened. He was picked up on the highway near South Killingly 2 few hours atter his departure from the room- ing house here. There Is a_possibility, it was stated here this week by 2 motion picture ex- hibitor, that patrons of the movies will have to pay more money for admission to shows of this variety in the near fu- ture. This is due, it is sald, to the ex- traordinarily high taxation to which the chester arrived at camp on Monday. He preceded Rev. W. H. Bath as Norwich district superintendent. The campfire which has been an en- joyable feature of the institute for sev- eral summers fas been announced by Mr. Bath as being arranged for this (Wednesday) evening. W. B.

Count- ing two Dew levies recenty imposed by the state of Connecticut and effective in the near future, the movie men have to pay 18 different taxes, Abel L. Reoves| Stated Monday, He enumerates these =3 follows: Li- |, cense tax, water tax, geal estate tax, Dpersonal tax; vault tax, tax, admis- &ion tax, income tax, excess profits tax, assessment tax, film tax, capital tax, corporation tax, music tax, express tax, and beginning September 1, two new tax- es imposed by the state of Connecticut— 2 censor tax and § per cent. of the gross recaipts. In view of these endless drags on the revenue of the motion pleture exhibitor, there seems to be no way out, if any net Drofit s left in the business, other than to_ingrease the admission charges. In discussing the situation Mr. Recves said: Movie themtres unguestionably furnigh the cheapest form of amusement in America today. FEven a ride on a carousal eosts, usually, 10 conts and the ride lasts about three minutes. Tee cream sada costs more than a full evening's en- tertainment at the picture show. Picture theatres are required by state law to be fireproof as near as may be Dossible, the profection booth absolutely %0. Many exits are required—more than is provided for in otaer public buildings used for amusements. The popularity of the picture houses, which number approximately 20,040, with the American public is attested by the fact that the attendance rangés from 15,000,000 to' 20,000,000 every day. This tremendous patronage in itself testifies to the fairness of the price that exhib- itors have been charging for fhis class of entertalnments, Only the great vol- ume of business has made it possibie for the pleture exhibitors to ge any profit at all, so heavily have they been taxed, and now more imports are to be af- fixed.” Mr. Reeves sald he regretted that a form of entertainment that is so popu- lar and that can bo enjoved at so little cost may have to be made more expen- sive because of the innumerable taxes {hap are being heaped upon te business, duf an increase in proceeds seems to be the prospect at the present time. Ernest Desjarding, o little boy resident on Water street, was reported as umin- jured, excepting for a skinned toe, Mon- day as the result of being strpck Sunday afterncon by an automobile driven by Edward Bennett of = Dayville. Eyewit- nesses of the incident say that the Des- jardins boy tried to rush aeross the street ahead of the Bemnett car, and did not quite make it.

Page of Cottage street in the first trial of the serum in Comnecticut. Dr. Page said Monday that this treat- ment has been very euccessfully used in Austria, and good resuits are expected in the Brooklyn cases. The dog and puf- pies being treated have not beep bitten,| a5 far as known. but they havel been ex- posed to bites from a rabid dog recently killed in Brookiyn. The serum that is Dbeing injected does ot make the dogs sick, but irritates them more or less. Two treatients are given on the first day, two more on the second day, and the final two at perfods several days apart. The sys- tem Is known as the Hoyges treaiment.
