 Her Home.

Hattie Gelinas, aged 16 years, liv- ing in Moodus. was reported to the local police authorities Tuesday night as having run away from her home, and was possibly in the city, and that she would be recognized by peach
 basket hat adorned with cherries. Lieutenant Killourey soon got track of her. She arrived on the 1905 p. m. trolley and inquired of peonle where certain MT. Chase lived, she stating he was her uncle. Apparent ly she didn't locate her uncle, and went to the Irving house for lodging and secured a room under the name Of Midora Lamotte, New York She did not want to sleep alone and was given room with one of the women employed at the hotel.
 Officer Killourey, about midnight, learned of the girl stopping at the house, and called on her. She denied at first That she was the person want ed and had a fainting spell. Later she acknowledged who she was. but would not tell why she left home. She was put under the care of the woman she roomed with, until a Moosup officer arrived. Early Wednesday forenoon, Deputy Sheriff Blivin of Moosup ar rived and took his charge back on the $50 a. m. train. The officer said that she was subject to fainting spells, but that he knew of no reason why she should have left home.

QUEER PRISONER.
Secured in East Putnam by Captain
 Murray.

Say, Cap; that horse is a corking good singer, isn't he? Yes, he's got a dinky clear tenor there and ought to be able to make a hit on the vaude- vile stage. I never thought anyone could develop such a dream oF a voice on a hay diet did you?'
 That was the style of conversation that man giving his name as Thomas Bradley. his age as 42 and his home as Pascoag. R. l.. rattled off to Cap tain Murray after the latter had made him a prisoner and was driving into the city with him from East Putnam Wednesday. You see, cap,' the man continued, I've been up against it pretty hard. A fellow named John Whalen down at Pascoag shot three bullets into my head last week and the young guy of a doctor who tried to fix me up made a mess of it. He couldn't get the bullets out so he took a chisel and clipped off the right side of my head and did few lace work designs on the other side. He didn't get the bullets at that For finish he carved the stomach out of me. but haven't lost my appetite and my head don't feel bad either"
 T don't see what those trees are laughing at me for. though do you ,? and I wish you'd take a look behind there. Cap, and see what that merry widow Is following us f5r"
 Captain Murray listened to this run ming fire of dippy comment and care fully explained wherever an explan- ation seemed necessary. He had his man safeuy secured and eventually locked him up to await the decision of the officials as to the disposition of the case.
 Bradley was arrested on complaint of residents of East Putnam. where he ruffled the restfulness Of Wednesday morning by running through the fields and trying to escape from imaginary pursuers by forcing his way into

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor nal condition hearing will be destroy ed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an inhamed condition of the mu- cous surfaces.

The rats are enticed through the front com partment. then through the door which falls back on them when in the part where the corn is placed. It was the star catch of the season, 22 in all, from the size of big mouse to d well grown rat, was the result. The rats were taken away and drowned.
