No Game With MiddIetown.

There was no game between the
Middletown and Windham high school
basketball teams at the Y. NJ. c. A
gymnasium Friday afternoon as the
management of the local team can
ce1led the game at the eleventh hour
because Of the injury and sickness of
several of its best players. 1t is ru-
mored that the game has been post
poned, but there seems to be no one
who can tell when the big game will
take place. MiddletoWn will begin to
get a trifle fidgetv and cannot be
blamed. An athletic team of any kind
should be SO trained that if a couple
of men upon whom the balance have
been accustomed to rely are for the
time incapacitated, that their positions
could be creditably filed by worthy
substitutes. The local team has good
subs; all they need is a chance. and
by giving them a chance in just such
an emergency they ofttimes make good
and even excel the so-called regulars.
Much more interest would be displayed
IL the Subs We're given little encour-
agement now and then.

MRS. ANNIE C. COLLINS
Dies in Denver Friday Morning-Death
Wholly Unexpected.

A telegram received in Danielson
announced the death of Mrs. Howard
w. p. Collins at Denver, Col, early
Friday morning. The announcement
was a shock to her relatives and
friends in this place, as it was entire
ly unexpected.
Mrs. Collins, who before her mar
rage was Miss Annie Carpenter went
west to join her husband a little more
than year ago. Previous to that
time she had been a resident of DAN
ielson and one of its most popular
young women. She was graduated
from Kiilingly high school and was
active in many of the interests of the
young people of the borough. The fact
that her life was endangered did not
precede the death announcement and
the sorrow that results is therefore
the more acute. Mrs. Collins was 81
years of age She leaves besides her
husband, two daughters, Dorothy, s,
and Marjorie, 6; her mother, Mrs. Ca
dy Carpenter, and one sister. Miss
Charlotte Carpenter. the two latter Of
Danielson.

Adjudged insane. Ellen Ryan, 60. who
has lived alone for several years in a
house near the Den tavern, was taken
from Putnam to Norwich Friday aft
ernoon for commitment to the State
hospital. Thursday night. the woman,
who has been mentally incompetent
for a long time, visited the home of
John Lowe, nearby, with the insane
idea of attacking Mrs. Lowe for some
imaginary offense. Mr.. Lowe inter-
fered with his visitors plan and he in
turn became the object of the wo-
mans wrath. The first blow from a
stick she carried fell srnartly against
his head and the next one cracked
against his wrist as he raised his
arm to ward off the attack.
Complaint was made to local officers
and an investigation was begun. An
attempt to bring the Ryan woman in
Thursday night failed but Capt. John
Murray went after her Friday morn
ing with better results.
Presented before Judge Fuller in the
city court on a charge of assault. it
became aroarent that she was of I'M
sound mentality and the conclusion
was later concurred in by DR.. r. A.
Morrell and DIR. j. J. Russell, who
were called to examine her.
Judge Edward G.. Wright of the pro-
tate court ordered her committed to
the insane hospital and and she left
ernoon car in charge of Selectmen c.
e. Pierce and Luther Keith. Mrs.
Pierce also accompanied the party.
Ellen Ryan has lived alone for many
years In the north section of the town.
Last June her actions were of such an
extraordinary nature as TO cause an
investigation as to her sanity, but
nothing came of it. Since then she
has become somewhat more violent in
her tendencies. Her Authorizations are
of rather a peculiar nature and her
conversation while irrational is of a
nature to indicate a belief in a type
of mental telepathy that allowed her
to receive messages about various
people and things through the medi-
UNI of supposedly active nerve CEN
ters in a corpse that she believes has
been placed in her homei
James O'Hare in Custody.
James O'Hara, 26. with gun on
one hip and a pint of whiskey on the
other. was locked up by Captain Muir
ray Friday afternoon after the man
had given a practical demonstration
that he was unable to properly direct
or care for the team that he was driv-
ing When asked why he carried a
revolver, which was of 80 calibre. and
loaded and in good working order.
O'Hara replied that he needed il in his
business.
Later it was learned that he has
been employed as a night Waterman in
CARROTS factory near Gloucester. r.
T. and that his home is in Providence.
The man will be presented in the city
court this Saturday morning
