WILLIAM F. BROWN SUICIDES.
Despondent, Lewiston Avenue Man Drinks Lsudanum-Wife Shielded at Colchester.

About 1,45 o'clock Sunday morning, Lieut. Daniel Killourey received a call from Supernumerary Policeman FL lery P. Weeks, who had been notified of the suicide of William F. Brown of 2SS Lewiston avenue, that occurred just before that hour.
 One of James P. Browns boys, who had been down to the city returning home. upon reaching the sales stable owned by his father, found William F. Brown in death throes upon the office floor. The boy, upon hearing the groans of his cousin, called to a brother and they notified Officer El- lery P Weeks, who resides across the street; he notified police headquarters and Lieutenant Killourey in turn mo- tified Medical Examiner Louis I. Ma son. who reached the office at 220 o'clock. Medical Examiner Mason pronounced death due to suicide by poisoning. A two-ounce bottle of laud- anum had been used to end life. The phlal was found close by Mir. Brown and only the dregs remained in the bottom of the bottle. The bottle bore label of C. deVillers. a Main street druggist.
 Medical Examiner Mason stated on Sunday afternoon that MT. Brown had taken just enough and that if he had taken any more of the laudanum he would in all probability have thrown 1t up.
 The medical examiner secured the information that MT. Brown had been drinking heavily for the past two weeks and that his act was in all probability the result of despondency.
 MT, Brown had made his home off and on in this city for a number of years and was known to horsemen throughout the state and New Eng land. He was known as a driver of fast horses and held the reins over a number of well known steppers in his day. He originally hailed from Colchester, where he has relatives. He resided in Colchester a number of years and was married there. His wife committed suicide there some years ago.

PUTNAM
City to Have League 5aII-Gamss on Morse Fisld-Mrs. Edgar cIarke's F"neral-Nsw City Court Utilized Many Patients at Hospital.

Once more there is an opportunity to write that Putnam will have a team in the Eastern Connecticut league this season. There have been several changes of probabilities on this mat ter this early in the season, but this time there seems to be little doubt that 8 definite decision has been arrived at. IL is understood that arrangements are being made whereby Putnam will have league baseball. Morse field, near Church street, where many hotly con- tested games have set the fans to rav- ing in the past, is being considered as the place for staging the events that are to come to Putnam. This ground was good enough in many past seasons for the best teams that came here to compete with Putnam and the pro meters of the team hero think 1t will ba this season, although admitting that the high school grounds would be bet ter but the high school field is not avatls ble.
