The JANIlOR IS ACCUSED
FRANK COLLIGAN CHARGED WITH
ARSON.
Well Known West Haven Man Said 10
Have Started the Fires in the HAN
and squires Barns wednesday Night


Frank G.. Colligan, the janitor OF the
West Haven town hall, was arrested
early yesterday morning charged with
setting fire to the barns of Frank M,
Hall and Rev. w. l.. Squires Wedhes-
day night The fires were sllght anu
were extinguished with very Httle
trouble. The fire in the Hall barn was
discovered about $3.50 and the one IN
the barn of Rev Mr.. SCuires about
half an hour later. In each place d
strong odor of kerosene oil was noticed
and a search revealed the fact that the
oil had been poured on the wood near
the ground where the fires started,
It was found that inf1ammable matter
had been placed in a hole under the
Hall barn and then set afire.
Immediate steps We're taken to, II pos
sible, ascertain the identity of the IN
cendiary, and soon after Frank c. Coli
gan, night janitor at the town hall,
was arrested and locked UP on suspl-
cion, it being reported that he had
been seen in the vicinity of the fire
in an intoxicated condition and that his
clothing was saturated with kerosene
oil.
Colligan, who is about thirty-hve
years of age, has been employed as
night janitor at the town hall ever
since it was built with the exception of
about six months two years ago.
Colligan was arrested at his home on
Main street, and was in bed when the
policemen entered the house. The smell
of kerosene oil was very strong, and
some empty bottles that previously con-
tanned oil were found in his room. Col
ligan was taken to the town Jail and
was locked up, the officers thought for
the night
The janitor evidently knew what was
coming for he hid a bunch OF keys in
his shoe and after the officers left him
In his cell he pulled the bunch out, UNI
locked the cell door and quietly left
the hall. Colligan calmly walked back
home and went to bed only to be ar
rested later in the morning.
The arrest of the night Waterman
caused a genuine sensation in the Dor
ough. He was regarded as trust
worthy employe and had always enjoy
ed a good reputation. Colligan has
made no statement concerning the
charges that have been made against
him, as grave as they are, and has not
attempted to explain the circumstances
that are strongly against him. All
that he would say yesterday was that
he had been drinking heavily Wednes-
day night, and has no knowledge of
anything that happened prior to his ar
rest
Attorney f. S. Thomas represents
Colligan. The Waterman remained in
jail yesterday, and no effort had been
made to get him out on bonds. He will
be brought before the court Monday.

Senator Davis is the slightest delirium
on first awakening. This indicates the
mental as well as physical strain I'M

possible turn for the better which

THE STRENUOUS LIFE
OF TODAY MORE WEARING ON
WOMEN THAN ON MEN.
How Best to Aid Nature in the Un-
equal Struggle.

DR.. Cyrus Edison the great specialist,
says in the North American Review,
these true words. This American life
OF ours is far more wearing on women
than on men. They have, as a rule,
more nervous organization, they are
intensely affected by the strain. Two
or three children are born and the
mother is physical wreck. she ages
soon, far sooner than she should, and
drags her weary days along"
The delicate nervous organization of
women, especially when steat strain is
put upon it, needs assistance, and in
the simple vegetable scientific prepara-
tion, Warmers Safe Cure, this aid is
surely found. This statement is no idle
boast, but an established fact deduced
from results attained through the use
of this great specific in all parts of the
| civilized world for the past quarter of
a century
Knowing the inherent modesty of
women, Warmers Safe Cure company
has secured the services Of Mrs. Alice
E. Mccullough, NJ. D., who will give
medical advice free to any applying for
same.
The subjoined testimonial from a
"Nli huoN III anu lIuSlNOIlIy WOllldI Is
but a sample OF those daily received:
Mrs J. w. Arnold, of Lafayette, K.
l., writes as follows: II had been all
| ing quite a while, not sick enough to be
in bed but just felt bad all over; palp!-
| tation, a faint feeling at my stomach,
! then flashes of heat all over; lame
back, retention of fluids, then again too
copious: sickness at stomach, headache
over eyes and top Of head. also at back
OF neck l had no ambition, my WORK
was drag on me, could not sleep we'll,
not much appetite and was thoroughly
discouraged. At this juncture a friend
advised the use OF Warmers Safe Cure
and ! tried 1t, three bottles in all, and
have continued in good health ever
| since. My age Is IS, am a farmer 8
wife and have lots to do. You are at
liberty to use this as you think best,
as l have to thank Safe Cure for the
good health l enjoy today"

DAVIS ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.

John Davis. of iii Swetland street,
whose cup of sorrow has overflowed
the past few days. attempted to end
his life Saturday night by taking an
overdose of creosote, but was pre-
vented by his wife before he accom-
plished his design.
The man returned to the house in an
intoxicated condition, and made ar
rangements to end his miserable eX-
istence by spreading a bed quilt on the
floor and taking the poison. When his
wife, who was next door, heard his
groans. she summoned a physician, who
applied the proper restoratives, and
Davis soon recovered.
The fellow has been arrested several
times recently and became respondent.
A strange coincidence in connection
with the affair was that the woman
whom Davis attempted to kill on
Thursday saved his life forty-eight
hours afterward.
