on today. A. thunder shower of unus-

oc at the range this afternoon, blowing
down several tents and targets and ne
cessitating an intermission of half an
hour during the afternoon. With the
exception of the half nour interval the
marksmen continued to shoot in the
rain and cloudiness, but the event was
not finished until evening itself fell up

BUNCO GAME VICTIM
Herbert Blizzard, a Local
Shipping Clerk, Re-
lieved Of Money.
PREY IN AN EASY GAME
Young Fellow By Name
of Shefflander Under
Arrest.
PREY IN AN EASY GAME

Herbert Blizzard, a shipping clerk
employed in one Of the local wholesale
houses, who recently came to this city
from Boston, was the victim of an old
fashioned bunco game on Church street
yesterday. He was standing in front
of the rostoffice, when he was accosted
by a stranger, who wished to be shown
the location Of a popular cafe. He
said that he had few hours on his
hands and wanted to learn to play
pool
Blizzard had nothing particular to
do, and so he offered to help the young
man in his laudable ambition. So
they went together to the cafe. After
they had started the game, a third fell
lew, whose name proved to be shetfian-
der, came into the game unlimited.
Billiards. acquaintance proposed to
Blizzard-sub rosa-that they "do up
Shefflander, whom he characterized as
"butt-in."
In order to accomplish this, the ac-
quaintance took Blizzard's roll of
about ten dollars. The rest was sim
pie. There was some unavoidable"
misplay or hitch, and the first Blizzard
knew, Sheftiander had the money.
Blizzard wandered over to the detec-
tiv bureau and Detective Ward arrest
ed Shefflander at his home at 126
washington avenue. He Is charged
with theft, and has previous police
record on the same score.
The acquaintance, who was evidently
an accomplice, has not yet been locat-
ed,
John w. Carroll of 80 Redfield street,
was also arrested as a witness. He is
detained on charge of idleness. The
detectives think that he knows more
about the game than he processes, and
think that he may be able to identify
the missing acquaintance.

ner of Grand avenue and Wallace

midnight last night arrested Tony

Patrollnen Lawlor and Trainer later
arrested Pietro Caporate of 65 Wallace
street. He denied having any knowl-
edge of the shooting, but was locked
up on the charges of intoxication and
carrying concealed weapons. He had
fully loaded revolver.
At the hospital the injured man said
that he was watching the quarrel from
the opposite side of the street and that
a stray bullet flew across and hit him.
The police do not believe this story and
the only thing which prevents them
from thinking that Caporale fired the
shot is that all the chambers Of is re-
volver were loaded when he was ar
rested.
scettinrs home is at 271 Hamilton
street. His wound is not considered
serious.
At o'clock this morning Detective

CHAMPION BACK
FROM CONVENTION
Gives Account Of National
Conference Of Fish and
Game Commits
sioners.
LOBSTER CULTURE
is DISCUSSED
Other States Commencing
to Follow Connecticut's
Method of Trout
Raising.

John M. Champion of Willow street,
state, fish and. game. commissioner, re-
turned yesterday from the national con-
vention of commissioners, held under
the auspices Of the government de-
partment at Erie, Pa. The two other
members of the Connecticut commits
sion, George T. Mathewson Of Enfield,
and E. Hart Geer of Lyme, also at
tended the convention.
Mr. Champion was very enthusiastic
last evening over the work of the con
vention. He said last evening: "The
part which interested us Connecticut
representative most was the discus
sions of trout and lobster culture. The
best addresses on these subjects were
by Prof Mead of Providence and g.
W. Field of Boston.
'The New England states are be-
ginning to realize the necessity of hay
ing uniform laws governing the catch
ing Of Holsters, and ] have come to
the conclusion that 1t is only a short
time when this move will be made. AT
present, the laws of this state prevent
the capture of Holsters under nine in
ches, while Massachusetts makes the
limit ten and a half. The result is a
great deal of misunderstanding and
evasion
Il think that our state takes a high
place in its advances in fish culture
We have always taken the stand in
trout planting, that it was much bet
ter to put in the fingerlings rather than
the small fry When we adopted this
method, we We're almost alone in it.
and the other states laughed at us.
Now we find that they are all fol-
lowing in our steps, and all coming
around to our point of view.
I'VE obtained great deal OF valu.
bible information In regard to the ac.
tual work Of planting the trout, and as
to the proper food for the young fish
and much of this information we shall
be able to put to good use in our owr
work.
"The business of fish culture is still
in Its infancy, but 1t is coming more
ana more to be recognizednas a com
mercially valuable enterprise.

ants from Home.

Especial to The Journal and Courier.)
southington, Conn, July 26.-Queer
stories came from the house where

the fact that instead of women the VIC
tins We're little girls, followed one an
other with remarkable celerity this af-
ternoon almost from the center Of the
city and aroused intense excitement
and indignation.
Within a short time the assassin sue
eessfully enticed three girl babies, the
oldest FIVE years old, into doorways of
houses and stabbed them several times
IN the abdomen with sharp instru-
ment. AS a result one Of the children
Is dead, another dying and the third
dangerously wounded.
The first knowledge of the crimes
came when an occupant of the house
at the corner of Ryke and Belforter
streets, found the body Of Margareitha
Prawitz aged four, lying in the door
way bathed in blood, the bowels pro-
truding and the lower part of body
horribly gashed. This was Immediate

about to proceed to investigate the case
when reports came that Hertha Lenst,
aged three, and ELY Knispel, five years
old, had been found similarly outraged
but still alive, in Prenzlauer ally and
Hensersdorfer street, respectively Ru-
mors soon spread throughout that vi
cinity which magnifed the number OF
victims and the inhabitants of the
neighborhood became intensely excited
Mothers sought their children in the
street and made them remain indoors
in fear that they might meet similar
fate. Crowds gathered about the police
station shouting vengeance against the
murderer.
In the meantime the two victims who
still lived were transported to a hos
pital Their condition is extremely pre-
carlous and they are not expected to
survive the night.
The officials acted quickly in an en-
deavor to find the murderer and pub
llshed an offer of a reward of 81 1000 fol

We are 30 used tothinking OF the soil

onlte as shock to find this is a mis-
take As a matter of fact the layer OF
soft mold which clothes the ground In
all cultivable districts and from which
vegetation springs is actually In great
part a living layer Of tiny plants and
animals. Interlacing threads OF molds
and fungi, worms and grubs, creeping
insects, tiny root parasites, decaying
leaves and the millions Of bacteria
which spring from them-all these are
mixed and mingled together for many
inches down below our feet In Il con
fused mass OF life Germs Of all sorts
swarm in countless millions. Indeed,
all the plants that grow and life that
exists on the face of the earth owe
their being to the fact that the ground
Is alive. You take shovelful of the
finest soil in the world and sterlllze
it-that Is. beat 1t till all the life In 1t
Is destroyed-and then plant seeds In
it. No amount Of care or watering will
make those seeds grow. Their life de-
pends Oh the life In the soil around
