 Rockville-There was hearing in the police court room yesterday over Ia peculiar case of small boy, and the police authorities hardly know what to do with him. He is only II years old and his father and folks want to save him from the School for Boys at Meriden but the authorities feel that he cannot go unpunished. The boy took it into his head to con stitute himself Black Hand society, sending letters to storekeeper and threatening to burn his place if he did not place $5 bill under the door so that he could get it during the night.
 Willimantic-A little girl about 1 3 years old, carrying a satchel and dress suit case, tried to buy a ticket to Canada yesterday afternoon. She had but dollar to spend for her ticket Being bound on such a long journey alone she was questioned by the officials at the station who, through an interpreter learned that she came from Taftville. She said her name was Alexandria Coutu and that her mother lived in Taft ville It was suspected that she might have run away from home and Captain Richmond was notified. By means of local French Canadians who could talk with her the captain explained as best he could that she had better go home instead of at tempting such long journey alone and without any money and he per- suaded her that such was the wisest course, so she was content to let him send her back home to her mother.
