IN THE POLICE COURT
Clock Maker From Thomasson Put
 on Pro bation.

Fred Godet is clock maker, but he did not make good in the clock shop in Thomaston so he came here a few days ago in search of work and incl dentally became intoxicated. Then he proceeded to beard the lion in his den by putting up nights at the police sta tion house. Last night when he ap- piled there he was locked up and this morning he boasted to Judge Peasley when he was charged with intoxication and vagrancy that he had money ln his pocket and he was no bum.
 How much money have you got!'
 Five cents," said Godet, with an air as if he had $500. Then he admit ted that he was a little 'full' last night, but that was his misfortune and he was no bum. He said if he were allowed to telephone to Meriden he could convince the court that he was the best press hand that ever worked in that place, if not he would eat the machine. He was told to scoot out of town right away, but the idea did not seem to please so he was put on pro bation to pay fine of $5 and costs.
 William Coleman slept in the Saliva ton Army shelter the other night, while his family contrived as best they could. Last night they had no place to stay and Coleman was arrested. He was sent to jail for ten days.
 Matthew Coffey was given thirty days for intoxication, and Albert Me Guire told such story about his boss, one Edward Holmes, making it right with the probation officer for him that his case for intoxication was continued to tomorrow morning, when Holmes will be heard from.
 James Monroe was fined $5 and costs for intoxication.
 A case against Charles Messer for selling liquor without license was continued to Tuesday.

Some were just opened, some half gone and others just beginning to disappear. A fine of S100 and costs was imposed and an appeal to the district court was taken.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.


 The Brooklyn Athletic club will play against the Eagles in the prelim- mary game at the Auditorium thls evening.
 After much talk the Cadet Juniors and the Thunderbolts have arranged a game to be played at Riverside park Sunday afternoon. Manager Wise will come to this city with squad of sev- enteen players and expects to go home with victory.
 "Wednesday afternoon truck wagon heavily laden with stone broke down near the open lot on Bank street. The heavy stones landed on the trolley track and passengers had to transfer at that point to another car which happened to be at the end of the line when the accident happened. The wag- on and stones were removed to the lot after delay of several hours and are still there.
 At the next meeting of the board of aldermen petition will be sent in by residents of this section asking that some action be taken in regard to the crossing from Bank to Benedict street, known to the people of Brook lyn as the Devils pass" a place where so many accidents occur. It is believed by the prominent men of this district that Mayor Elton could ac- complish much with the railroad auth critics if he should try. The idea is to have the old pass from Bank street to Benedict street closed up and new one opened through the open lot from Y1,xv eI <,fx @x ,1- esfps could be done with very little trouble. A gate could be placed in the fence at Jewelry street and suitable crossing could be made at the tracks. This would be great benefit to the em- ployes of the Watch shop who live in Brooklyn. The present path along the river to Benedict street is in wretched condition and persons travel there at the risk of life and limb. Although pe- titions have been sent in before in re- gard to this matter nothing was ever accomplished. This time the taxpay- CTS should push the improvement and not let it drop until something result ed from their efforts. It Is at the present time a very dangerous pass way and more accidents are liable to | happen there If the causes are not | eliminated.
