does their booty impress one win
their knowledge of valuable GOODS, as
much of the loot is evidently OF the
poorest kind of silver plate. such as
would be taken from well establish
ed house for use occasionally In a
summer bungalow. Had they been al
lowed to pursue their work at Eastern
Point unmolested, however, the story
might have been different.
The two men wilted at once upon
being confronted by the appearance OF
Watchman Wilbur, who thoroughly
convinced them that they had better
accompany him for the balance of the
night The prospect of cold lead was
not appealing. and they decided TO
celebrate part of their Memorial day
in the lookup rather than in hospital.
In the Groton town court Monday
morning Guy b. Dolbeare who occu-
pies a cottage at Kitemaug during the
summer, identified the rowboat in
which the two men Went 20 Eastern
Point as his and stated that the boat
had been missing. from Kitemaug since
Saturday.
In the rowboat was a satche1 well
filled with silver. knives. forks, spoons,
etc, all readily identified as owned by
people just opening their summer resi-
dences at Kitemaug and Point Breeze.
One silver utensil, a balby's drinking
cup, with the name Allie inscribed. was
quickly identified as coming from Kite
maug.
Among those in the Kitemaug COL
ony who reported property missing on
Monday morning and stated that their
cottages had been entered within a
short time were Henry ID. Johns IN,
Gurdon l.. Bidwell. Frank u. TobIn,
Charles p. Chapman. who has had Two
cottages entered, Ashton NJ. Persons,
Shepard 3. Palmer and Frank w.
Browning. All except Mr.. Persons of
Willimantic and Mr.. Tobin, who is now
in Canada. are Norwich people who

Thames river
Prosecuting Attorney Warren p.
Burrows stated that any other resi-
dents along the river who owned prop
erty in cottages and missed valuables
would assist the state materially by
seeing him and Identifying property, as
there remains some yet unidentified.

Cottages Of Norwich People Entered
Those Kitemaug Nearly All Visited-Burglars
Caught They Going Into Mrs. kenyon's
FIace at Eastern Point.

Thanks to the vigilance of Frank
Wilbur. night Waterman for the East
ern Point association. two would-be
burglars were on Monday bound over
in bonds of $1,000 each by Judge Lati-
mer for the next criminal term of the
superior court. going to Jail in default
They both pleaded guilty to the
charge.
The men are John Brady. who gave
his address Albany. n. Y, and
Frank Burns, who gave no home adj
dress, but owned that he was familiar
Both pleaded guilty to an attempt to
enter and burglarize the cottage of
Mrs. Mary Kenyon of Norwich at East
ern Point on Saturday night.
About midnight on Saturday Watch
man Wilbur. in going his rounds at
Eastern Point, found two men max
ing an attempt to enter the Kenyon
residence. The men made a bluff at
showing fight to the Waterman. but
were soon cowed and submitted to de-
tention until officers were summoned.
At o'clock on Sunday morning
Watchman Wilbur was able to have
the culprits locked up in the cooler in
School street, where they fingered I'M
til Monday forenoon.
The arrest by Waterman Wilbur
speaks well for his vigilance and
courage. and the further prosecution
of the investi cation is largely due to
him and to the quick eyes of Master
Newton Hillyer, who had noticed
something wrong with a rowboat
which appeared in the lower stretches
of the river Saturday evening. The
boat was seen by the lad toward Sat
urday evening poking along the Groton
shore toward Eastern Point, and when
Watchman Wilbur made an investiga-
ton of it, after he had locked up the
two men and had found out that boat
was connected with their efca pade, h
found a whole lot of goods slowed
away in the little craft
The contents of the boat have been
to a large extent identified. They ap-

of the cottages at Kitemaug, on the
Thames river, many of whom were in
the Groton court Monday morning TO
prove ownership. The appearance of

MAY GIVE UP GALES
FERRY FOR LITCHFIELD.
AS Practice Ground for Vale Football
Squad in September.

A New Haven despatch says 1t now
seems very likely that the Yale foot
ball squad will go to Litchfield in this
state for its preliminary practice next
September, beginning two weeks be-
fore the opening of the university. Elk
animation thus far of the Gales Ferry
plan indicates that no level field fit
for practice can be secured in that
neighborhood. ) final examination.
however. will be made before the Gales
Ferry scheme is given up, and later an
examination will be made of the foot
ball facilities at Litchfield, where the
high ground and pure air will be spe-
cial attractions for the squad. At
Litchfield there are also two eligible
grounds. one of them the present base
ball ground, half a mile below the vii
lage, and the other practically in the
village itself, the old golf field, just
north of the grounds of the Litchfield
club In any event, it is very IN
likely that the squad will this year
have it's preliminary training at New
Haven on account of the drawback of
probable warm weather and the eX-
cessive use of the Yale gridiron I'M
fitting it somewhat for the later
matches. Under the circumstances
Litchfield seems to he the favorite at
present with the Yale football mana
gers.

Judgment in Indiana.

The other day in Hammond. Ind
Judge kaSke was holding court and
had just fined a man SIS and costs
for disorderly conduct. Now it hap
pened that among the spectators was
one Martin Sollxi, a warm personal
friend of the gentleman who got the
judicial hook. The judges decision
from the standpoint of SOlki. didn't
appear to be just and fair, so Solki
spoke right out in open court to no
body in particular. saying what kind
of a decision he thought it was.
That's a - of a decision" said
Solki, and then thrust his hands into
his pockets and was striding hotly
from the courtroom.
What's that you say?" inquired
Judge KaSi1e of Solki.
Il say" replied Solki, that you have
no more business being a judge than
have, and that decision you just
ladled out is punk one"
Are you familiar" asked the judge
quietly, as his back hair bristled up,
that in criticising my ruling in this
manner you are laying yourself open
to contempt of this court?''
Jaw. cut out the highbrow talk"
said Solkd; 'you gave me pain in
the neck-you ought to be ditch
digger instead of a Judge"
Thereupon Judge Kaske arose, and
removing his sDectacles, placed them
on the desk before him. then he took
off his coat and hung it on the back of
chair, next he stepped down from
the judicial platform, and crossing
over to where Sollzi stood. hauled off
and hit his critic a walIop on the
jaw that made Soll1i turn a back SOM
ersault without touching his hands to
the floor. Solki lit on his ear and
the point of his elbow with a dull
sickening thud and remained there for
a few minutes in a comatose condi-
ton. Finally, he rose to his feet and
looked at the judge in anlazement.
my FRIEND" said the eminent jul
rist, at was impossible for me to
explain to you what constitutes con-
tempt of court I discarded my
judicial robes and have addressed you
with my fists as a private citizen.
May I ask if you have experienced a
change of heart in your opinion as to
my ruling?'
SolEi rubbed his chin reminiscently
and told the judge in a. subdued voice
that he thought he (the judge was
all right, and that if the judge would
forgive him for his hasty remarks. he
would never again appeal from his
decision. Sollzi then left the court
room with some new ideas concerning
Jurisprudence, while the judge return
ed camlY to the bench. donned his
coat and spectacles, took a chew of
dog-leg tobacco and said: Next case

Il tried various remedies without
good results: then determined to give
particular attention to my food and
have learned something of the prop
critics of Grape-Nuts for rebuilding the
brain and nerves.
Il commenced using Grape-Nuts
and have since made a constant and
rapid Improvement in health in spite
of the fact that all this time I have
been engaged in the most strenuous
and exacting work.

Alya Z. Grimes, who has been with

city and town but carried away many
plates which will make an interesting
evening for the stereopticon later in

" Gentlemen,if the earth were fiattened
