Later Sheriff Louis Richards broke in on the wire and stated that he and Sheriff Dave Burr of Fairfield had missed the 11:20 ex- press and could not leave Springfield till 2:20 p. m., arrived in this city at 4:13. The two sheriffs had taken too much time for their morning meal. Sheriff Hawley told them that they could take a good nap now as long as they know here the two men were.
 Attorney Clitus King, prosecuting attorney for Fairfield, said this morn ing that in a conversation with Annie Marock she had stated that only two weeks ago she had been robbed of $40 by a friend of her husbands, but that her husband had said that he would get the money back for her.
 Sheriff Hawley was rather incensed this morning with the way the Fair field authorities handled the case, though everything worked out all right. He states that it was o'clock last evening before he was informed of the finding of the body which was discovered at 10:3O o'clock in the morning. Under the circumstances if things did not work out today as they did the handling of the case from the Fairfield end would have come in for considerable censure from the authorities higher up, whose attention should have been

NEW AERO CONCERNS AIMS.
Business Corporation VIII Manage Elk
hibitions and Contests in the Air.

Interest was manifested in aeronautc
circles yesterday in the new business cor
poration formed on Tuesday last. It's name
is the Aero Corporation, Limited The IN
corporators are interested also in the Aero
Club OF America, and the directors have
been prominently identified with that club
for long time.
The purpose of this business corporation,
II was said, will be to attend to all mat
ters connected with the giving of exhibit
tons and the holding of contests. 1t
is the belief of the incorporators that
one of the results of the new organization
viii be to lessen the friction in the Aero
Clubs affairs.
Thomas A Hill, speaking for several
members of the Aero Club of America, who
have brought suit against that organiza-
ton to test the legality of the last annual
election of officers said last night that II
their suit should be successful any present
action by the clubs governors might be
set aside. He said that the members of
the Aero Club who had brought the suit
were intent upon urging every possible
legal redress for injustices that, he said,
they felt they had suffered.
The headquarters of the Aero Club OF
America have been changed to the En-
gineers' Building in West seth street.

Senator Thomas f. Grady was the prin-

President Harris brought the message
from alma mater. He said the girls stlil

old DAYS. that the water in the old well at
the college was as pure as ever. and that
the standard maintained at the old school
is as high as ever.
Colleges are getting a good deal OF
criticism these days" said President Har-
that they do not study. Well, some of them
don't that is not denied, and some of you
didn't The work done by the best men in
the class is just as good as ii ever was. il
not better. A student cannot get through
a college like Amherst without a consid-
cradle amount of work
He said Amherst stood for culture rather
than for any technical training: that the I'M
provement of leisure was just as important
as study. and that athletics. especially the
large games which interested the students
should not be taken from them The games
developed courage, persistency and team
work-au very good things for young
man.
District Attorney Whitman said he had
attended every dinner OF the Amherst
alumni held in New York for twenty years.
He said the office of District Attorney in
New York seemed as though it rather be

when you see men going to the capital Of
