INJUNCTION DISSOLVED.
Judge Waller Finds for Defendant in
Zeeeer Case.

Wednesday morning Abraham Ze-
geer received notice that Judge wal
Ter of the court of common pleas had
rendered the following decision in the
case of the borough of Jewett City VS..
Zegeer an action to dissolve a tenn
porary injunction procured to stop Mr..
Zegeer from extending the building he
owns on Soule street beyond build
ing line established by the borough.
Judge Walters finding follows:
I am satisfied that the ordinance es-
tablishing the claimed building line is
unconstitutional, and therefore void,
because it is taking of property with
out the process of law and without
compensation, and that it cannot be
held valid as an exercise of the police
powers, and therefore the defendants
motion is granted and the temporary
injunction is dissolved without costs
to the defendant.
r. H. Gilbert will begin building the
foundation this morning. Mr.. Zegeer
will have both inside stairs removed
and outside stairs built on both sides
of the building. His store will be ex-
tended five feet, bringing it out to the
line of the piazza above. There will
be four bay windows in front and one
window on each side. He will still
have three feet left on his property and
intends laying a cement walk.

Willinantic, Danielson and Putnam

in was lucky to get locked UP without
a beating such as he richly deserved.
Only Tuesday he paid the fine i'm
posed upon him in the town court q
few days ago for a previous beating
he had given his wife. The agreement
at that time was that he should leave
the state before August %. He was
going away Wednesday, but with his
suit case packed went to the home Of
his wife with the expressed intention
of beating her and after he had open
ly threatened to kill her.
Pepin was at one time prosperous
business man in Danielson. Fifteen
years ago he conducted fine paying
bakery business on Franklin street,
and owned two houses. He was max
ing big money, had saved several thou
sand dollars and was getting rich fast
when he ventured into the saloon bus
mess. That was the beginning of the
end. He went to pieces in short
time. His bakery business dwindled
to almost nothing because Of his in
attention and debauchery. His real
estate went next and few years ago
when he was completely down and
out he was reduced to the necessity
of returning to the cotton mills, where
by early industrious habits he had
accumulated the money to start him.
self in business.
The past two years have been the
most unworthy of his life and his de-
plorable record has been marked by
the additional and despicable offence
of wife beating, for which he has serv-
ed long term in Brooklyn jail.

the interim the remaining clauses OF
the warning were taken up.
Judge Bowen introduced long res
olution that was adopted authorizing
the selectmen to issue bonds not to
exceed 100000, bearing interest at 4
per cent, the bonds to be denominated
the shigh school bonds of the town of
Windham," and the money obtained
from the sale of such bonds to be
utilized for the building and coupling
the new high school addition. The
board of selectmen has full power to
issue the bonds that are to run until
Jan. /, 1910, from Jan. l, 1910.
Judge Bowen in explaining his reso-
luton referred to the towns floating
Indebtedness, stating that it amounted
to about $4,000 at the close of the last
fiscal year, but that it was increased
by 81 900 on account of the payment
of the towns share of the new Wind
ham street school building and that it
would be further augmented by the
sum of $4,000 for cemetery purposes,
and that therefore the issue of the
bonds was imperative.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted without further discussion.
Town Treasurer Fenton submitted
resolution providing for the establish
ment of a sinking fund by means of
setting aside annually one-half of the
tuition fees that are received from the
outside pupils attending the public
schools, which would amount at the
present time to approximately $4,000
per annum. and that sum at the ma
turity of the bonds about to be issued
would total over $4,000, which would
be more than ample to wipe out the
floating Indebtedness that was adopted.
Mr.. Snow and Mr.. Lyman were ap-
pointed counters by the chair. The re-
suit of the ballot was found to be as
follows: Total vote IS: yes Is, no I.
The $4,000 appropriation for the pur-
chase of the Arnold Potter farm for
additional cemetery purposes was
therefore ratified
