BLACK HAND LETTER
Likely to Prove Boomerang for Its
 Clumsy Writer.

Putnam was given an imitation Black Hand scare Wednesday when it was announced that Nicholas Rita, keeper of local restaurant, had re- ceived a letter written in Italian and demanding that he, Charles Bore. and the Giraca Brothers, proprietors of a fruit store. in the court house block, get $50 of their good money together and have it ready for deliverr at an appointed place on Church street on Wednesda- evening.
 The letter, signed by "An Assistant Secretary of the Black Hand" was decorated with a drawing of a skull and crossbones. and contained the in formation that If they did not de- liver at the appointed time they would
 be roasted like meat.
 That was putting it strong, but the
 prospective victims did not develop
 hysteria over the matter. Instead,
 they put it up. to Captain Murray and Wednesday afternoon the captain came down to the police station with Charles Reno, 20, and locked him up. Reno is afcotton mill operative and
 has been ein Putnam about three months His boarding place is 224 Church street. He came here from Webster and from evidence obtained Wednesday evening there is strong reason to believe that he is respon sfble for the threatening letter to Ri l ta.
 Reno is a short, stocky fellow with l swarthy countenance and evil eye He refused to talk very much, but what he did say contained several contradictory statements. He will be
 presented in the city court this morn I ing.
 1 Two strong points that make the accusation against Reno effective are I that in his room on Church street l Captain Murray found writing papel of the identical sort used in the Rits | letter. and in Reno's pockets he found letters written in Italian which wher translated established that the pris- oner has previously tried this Blacl | Hand game in other places. Another fact against Reno is tha the Rita letter designates that tho l money was to be delivered to him
 Reno explains this by saying that h' 1 was to be forced to deliver the none!
 to some other mysterious third part! under penalty of death. The lette I was mailed in Putnam and was post 1 marked 3.S0 Monday afternoon.
 The threatened men are not doing any worrying over the affair.
