Ryall was arrested a few days ago for complicity in several re- cent burglaries Tn Danielson and is now awaiting trial al Brooklyn jail under bonds of $2,O00.

Of the children, William, who passed his ninth birthday Jan. 1, is the eldest. The youngest an infant of nine months, died Tuesday morning and the little life was probably plotted out for lack of care. Mrs Ryall told Chief Filling that the children had been i'll with the measles but she had no money to employ a physician and cared for them herself. giving them an occa- slonal dose of Castoria- Three of the children, William, g, Carrie, [, and Fred, 5, were born to Mrs. Ryall by a former husband and bear the name of Luce. They have not for that reason, however, fared any better or any worse than the younger ones that have come of their mothers union with Ryall and all have shared equally in a poverty more pitiful because of the avoidable circumstances that has produced it. Debauchery on the part of the parents has deprived the children of nearly every essential necessary to their health, comfort, morals and mental development.

PETITION DENIED
For Removal of A. J. Bowen as Con-
 serVator of A. j. Rindge.

Tuesday morning attorneys were mo- tified by Judge of Probate William H. Burnham,o of Hampton of the denial of the petition for the removal of A. J. Bowen as conservator over A. J. Rindge.
 The petitioner in the case asked that no conservator be appointed. First Selectman John H. Pitts was in att tendance at the hearing and opposed this, contending that there should be someone to act as conservator. At the hearing Attorney Bowen represented Selectman Fitts. It was borught out that MT. Rindge is much better off with a conservator than he was be- fore, because he now has the farm to cultivate practically as before and the produce from the same is also sup plemented with regular cash allow ances.
 The value of the estate is limited and the problem seeIns to be to make the little there # go as far as possi- ble. there being no available funds for litigation or luxuries to any amount.
 The judge held that there was not sufficient evidence to show that An drew J Rindge is restored to the nec- essary ability or capacity to assume ths care of himself and manage his ON n affairs within the meaning of the statute.
