A communication relative to the kid- napping affair written to corps headquar- ters at Boston by a local citizen wha in- terested himself in the case furnished the rs there with the first inkling of the stunt that an -army car figured in this territory. Within a few hours after the t of the letter, on Wednesday of this week. Private Kerwip wae placed under arrest, : - It appears that he had been detailed from corps headquarters at Boston as a chauffenr with a reserve officer tempo- rarily on specigl duty in Providence. Some days ago this seserve officer ordered Private Kemwin to return to Boston, but in“his report to corps headquarters sim- ply set forth fhat Private Kerwin had proyed unsatisfactory as a chauffeur. This report, of course, indicated néthing to the officers at Boston of the reasons back of Private Kerwin being returned. Summoned before an officer at Boston, Kerwifi admitted havidg figured in the attempted kidnapping and that “without perraigsion of or with the knowledge of the officer for whom he was acting as chauffeur at Proyidence, had taken the army car—a Dodge sedan—from the pri- vate garage where it was being kept and drove it to Putnam with a party of which Mrs. Evelyn Monk Sharpe was a membi Aieutenant Thorpe said Thursday afte: noon that things likely will go h with Private Kerwin if he is found guilty of the charges that will be preferred against him. He is to be courtmartialed as soon as the necessary faets pertaining te the case are gathered and ready for use. Ker- win Was entrusted with & mission at Proyidence requiring special tact and eare, Lieutensnt Therpe said, and the fact that he became involved in such an affair as had led to his arrest, an affair that refleets on the army and its morale, makes his predicament a very serious one. The army is not concerned with ny vielations of the clyil” code that may have oceurred, but Lieutenant Thorpe made it very clear that no such reflection as Private Kerwin's use of an army car caused to b ethrown on the service will be allowed to go unpunished.

Harold Gilpateie for the republican nemi- nation for state treasurer was annoupced here Thursday merning by Mayor Archic bald Macdonald. This announcement is, or|should be, sufficient to line up the entire republican organization of Windham ecounty for easurer Gilpatrie's support, as it should command aid for him from all other parts of eastern Connegticut as well as in the more distant parts of the state, As state treasurer, G. Harold Gilpatrie. one of Copnecticut's mest able bankers, during his two terms of office has set up a record of efficiency that has commanded the approval of eitizens of all palitical parties and shadings of political beliefs. He ha sadministered the duties of his office with the same tRoroughness and at- tention to detail, with the same scrupu- lous eare, that has marked his werk as an official of the First National bank of this city, and his friends here—and that means the population of the city—feel that they are not asking more than that the renublican party continue to take vantage of the opnartunity of having his vices when they come forward with 2 juest for his renomination. ‘Treasurer Gilpatric himself has sald nothing about the matter. The annoynce- ment comes through Mayor Macdonald as spokesman for the local republican organ- ization. and the fact that it doés come from such a source will win it immediate respect. Windham Gounty is proud of the record that Treasurer Giipateic has made and this, coupled with the fact that Wind- ham county gets sp little and so infre- quent representation on the state ficket, will go a long way toward lining up east- ern Connecticut delegates to the republi- can state convention as practically a H that will be of use. in’prose- | be ; b President League Of Amer- ican Pen Women | Mrs, ‘rnsodore Tiller, of Wash- ington, who has been elected Pre: | ident of the League /of Ame: DONT FORGET THE DANCE.

Hareld Gilpatric was born July 8, 1881, 3 sen of George W. and Jessie I. #odgPs Gilpatrie, and comes from an old Maine famlly. Praeti- caly all of his ife has been spent in this ¢ity, where he was educated and was graduated from Putnam High scheel in 1899. His initial experlence in banking was obtained as a draft elerk in the First National bank of this eity, and he gradually advanced until he eventually became treasurer of the imstitution, in 1908, a pesition hé continues to hold. He is a member of the board of directers of the institution as well as & member of the board of directors of the Putnam Woelen company snd of the bheard of di- regters of the Putnam Foundry and Ma- chine company. He also is included in the directorates of the Jeffermon Trust company of Boston and of water com- panies doing business in Kentucky and Michigan. He is secretary of the board of water commissionérs of the city of Putnam and an outstanding figuee in al that pertaing to the commercial and financial interests of this city and sur- rounding communities. Mr. Gilpatrie s married and has three children. One Charles Brooks, age about 22, was probably the happlest yeung man in Con- necticut Thursday morning. It wasn't because he had taken a bride or had been decorated with the Vigtory Cross of Lave, but because he had héen awarded a fine five-passenger touring car by investing 10 cents in a ticket nreffered him to aid a big entertainment just elosed in this elty. Brooks' home is in Wallingford, but he has been making his headquart nam while soliciting magazine tions. Like other youths, he ool a flyer by investing in a few tickets on an auto- mobile and was the most amazeéd man this side of paradise when informed that he was the holder of the proper ‘m@: of pasteboard with which to lay claim to a brand new machine. ‘While bubbling ever with joy at hig good fortune, Brooks did neb lose hig head over the affair, and Showad the good Gualities that are in him by refusing a cash offer of $1,300 for the car, asserting that he was going to take it heme to ‘Wallingford and leave with his mother and berother, that they might enjoy it, and that no money offer would swerve him from that purpose. ‘And te Walling- ford the car went Thursday morning, with a man to drive the machine, which Brooks is incapable of doing yet, and he, the surprised owner, was on tha seat beside the driver. Itis not often that a ear won by in such a Way goes to somuone Who really | Panie could not have one otherwise, und this fact seemed to be a source of geatification throughout the eity. \Wllhout supplying them a Biue Book, e THE CONNECTICUT COMPANY RIDE BY until 8:45, 9:45, 10:48, 11:45 Lv.
