PUTNAM
Eva Brassard, 13, Wanted to Be Cow girl, but Will Go to Industrial School lnstead-Fair Closes with Speedy Races.

Because she wanted to join the wild
 west show, don a sombrero, riding a bucking broncho and learn to rope steer and because she would not listen to admonishment when her Ian was interfered with, Miss Eva Blanche | Brassord, 13, of the Providence street section of the city, is going to the state school for girls at Middletown ! this Saturday, morning. Eva became infatuated with the easy, care-free life of the members of Kemps wild west show during the week they have been in camp at the fair grounds anu if her story is true, she expected to be taken on as one of the company and was 70 have left with the show for Williman- tic Thursday.
 The girl has been lettering around the Indian and cowboy camp for a week and has the wild west fever very badly. She thinks she would like to break glass balls with a rifle ball shot from the back of flying COW pony and she knows positively that she could love the life forever. The girl called around at the rail- road station ticket office Friday to get the ticket to Willimantic that the show people were to have left there for her, but they had neglect sd to see
 to this part of the arrangements. She
 was disappointed. She had no money to get ticket, but she made inquiries
 about west bound trains and the
 chances for getting over to the Thread
 city.
 Shortly after noon Miss Eva fell into the hands of Captain Murray, who
 had been on her trail for several hours
 and during the afternoon Judgn Rus-
 sell fixed things so that she will not
 become a rough rider right ava al-
 though she says she will run away
 from the school at Middletown and
 get with the show. The girl is one of
 seven children whom her mother
 works in the mill to support, her
 father having been killed in a rail-
 road accident about two years ago.
 She has a habit of not being as
 good little girl as she should be, dis
 obeying her mother with persistent
 frequency. She was crying while
 prisoner in the steel cage at the po-
 lice office Friday afternoon but more
 from anger than repentance.

J. c. g, DAYvILLE 8.
Interesting Contest Between Clerks on
 Dayville Grounds.

Dayville clerks were stung again by Jewett City clerks in a close and ex- citing game on Dayville grounds Thursday afternoon. The feature of the game was the pitching of Page for Dayville, getting sixteen strikeouts and held the Jewett City clerks to six hits, Three of the hits should have been fielded, which really held them to three hits. Striking out some of Jewett Citys best men when a hit meant runs. Such good men as Pop Williams and Moore were struck out three times out of five times up. But a little hard luck lost the game for Dayvile. But 1t took the visitors ten innings to do the trick the score being g to 8 in favor of the Jewett City clerks. A star catch was behind second base and robbing Page of a hit.
