BROTHER AND SISTER
Aunt Was Witness Against Them i0 Court To-Day Girl Was
 Committed.

A very sad case was brought to the attention of Judge Burpee in the city court to-day. Elizabeth Ram- sey, 15, and her brother William, 13, were before the court having it was charged no proper home surround- ings. Their aunt, Mrs Stephen Burke, was the complainant. She stated that up to month ago she, lived with her husband and the chil- dren in Naugatuck. Now they live at S15 East Main street. Their, mother died some time ago and their father is very ill of consumption in Virginia. The children, she said, pay no attention to her. They stay out Sate nights. The boy goes to school but he is very impertinent and both boy and girl attempted to strike her quite recently. She seemed to be, very much affected by the memory of the occurrence and plaintively ask ed not to be obliged to tell any, thing connected with the case. She oAAu ohS biou6hI up liC Cu mother and raised six of her own.
 Mrs Weaving, her daughter, who also lives at S15 East Main street
 testified in tears exactly as her moth- Ter did. Then Probation Officer Com-
 bellack took the stand and said he
 had investigated the case and ascer- tained that the children were not properly taken care of. A few nights ago he said they made their bed in a warm corner with old bed spreads, mats and rugs and the neigh
 bors taking pity upon them took them to their homes that night. There was evidence of drink in the place too. As the county commissioners were not notified three days ago, as is required by law, of the probability of having the children sent to the county home, Judge Burpee said there was nothing left him to do but to commit the girl to the state school
 for girls in, Middletown. The boys
 case was continued until the commits sioners are notified.
