Old Mr.. simmons Arrest.

Henry e. Simmons, seventy -four
years old, who has been a resident of
Summit for many years and was at
one time an elder in the Summit Pres
Dyterian Church, was taken to Kill
ingly, Conn, on an extradition warrant
charging him with embezzlement III
connection with the estate Of his uncle,
John Hawkins, of which Simmons has
been the sole executor. His. wife in
about of the same age Simmons was
arrested after Sheriff Sibley, Of Wind
ham County, Conn, had arrived in
Summit and obtained a warrant for his
arrest from Police Justice Hicks. Sim
mons got bail and was released. He
was surprised when Sheriff Sibley re-
turned with the extraditiOn warrant
which Governor Murphy had signed at
Trenton Simmons had declared that
he would fight removal to Connecticut.
His lawyer, w. O. Sayies, whom he
had hastily sent for, arrived too late
to attempt to get writ of habeas
corpus to prevent the Sheriff from
taking him away, and they left on the
8 o'clock train that night According
to the police who arrested Simmons on
the warrant brought by the C0nnecti-
cut Sheriff, the arrest grows out OF the
disappearance of $2716.93 from the
Windham County Savings Bank. This
is alleged to- have been part of the
estate left by Mr. Simmons uncle, who
died over year ago. The estate, it is
said, amounted to not over $4,000.
Simmons was made the sole executor,
but in April the Connecticut courts,
on the petition of two Of the nephews,
had Simmons removed and another
executor appointed in the person Of
Edward Dexter. According to Mr..
Simmons friends, his removal by the
courts was due to his refusal to give
bond of $4,000 demanded by the
nepheWs.

Tabloid MILK.

Milk that has been watered, milk
that contains microbes, milk that has
lost every trace of any cream it may
originally have contained such milk is
to be thing Of the past if al London
inventors scheme works.
A process of solidifying milk has
been invented, which, it is affirmed,
viii, besides banishing all the dangers
associated with the dairy, in the course
of time do away with the dairy itself.
says the Philadelphia North American.
can
by this method the liquid milk is
whigked around FURNISHED cylinders
kept at fierce temperature by steam
until, after few seconds it comes OF
in the form of continuous creamy
white sheet. This is then reduced to
powder. and may be compressed into
cakes.
But, in spite of this severe treatment,
the product still remains pure milk.
and the addition of seven parts Of
water is all that is requisite to restore
1t to the form Of new milk cream rises
upon it naturally. and butter and
cheese can be readily manufactured.
