SATURDAY NIGHT spREEs
Cause Arrest of Four-one a Husband
Who Turned Wife Out Into the Cold.

Louis LoKolowski was arrested Sat
urday night at his home in the Yellow
row for assaulting his wife. He was
drunk and pushed her out of the house.
Lieutenant Kllourey and Officer Enan-
der made the arrest.
The same officers were called to the
corporation boarding house across
from the police station at 1889 o'clock
Sunday morning to quell q disturbance
caused by John Bastien. He was
drunk and persisted in making a racket
that would not allow any one in the
place to go to sleep.
Evidently the early mornings dis
tur5ance was not conducive to good
feeling among some OF the other
boarders in the same place for Sun
day afternoon Chief q. H Richmond
and officer Macarthur were obliged to
go there and arrest two fellows who
got into an argument and went to
fighting One was kicked about the
:aca. Both were locked up and will
be arraigned in court this (Monday)
morning Neither one of the two was
sober enough to give a name

NORTH STERLING MAIL

over at North Sterling objection is
being made-by a rresponCen-that
mail from the DanielsOn postoffice,
mailed here Thursdays. does not reach
that place sometimes until Saturday
and at other times not until Monday
The writer Of the objection claims that
this never was the case when the
Danielson- North Sterling star route
was carrying the malls. This claim is
peculiar, inaEmUch as the rural service
out of Danielson is conducted as eff
ficienuy as anywhere. but perhaps all
Of North Sterling's mail is not sent via

Intruder Entered from Roof.
1t was apparent Saturday that man
who disturbed the neighborhood about
the Cyr building late Saturday night
was either crazy or suffering from an
attack of delirium tremens. The story
Of his actions during a time Of zero
temperature and bowling gale in
cludes a recital Of how he entered the
apartments of Mrs. c. ]. LeClalre, on
the second floor Of the Cyr building, by
smashing out the glass in a window
and letting himself in from the roof Of
the adjoining Hutchins block Mrs. Lee
Claire was alone at the time and was
badly frightened when accosted by a
man in his shirtsleeves, he at once
commencing TO plead with her to save
him from someone who was going to
kill him. Mis-. LeClaire handled the
case adrOitly, finally inducing the fell
low to leave. Later he appeared at
the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Bou-
laine, in the rear of the Cyr building,
and still later at the home Of Alex
Cloutier, the bone setter, who lives
nearby. 1t was learned Saturday that
he was a boarder in the apartments
kept by Gilbert Pellerin in the Hutch
ms block. His idea that he was being
pursued and that he was to be killed
we're due wholly to the workings of
disordered brain.

Baked BURGLAR.
Putnam Woman Headed OFF Intruder
by Telephoning Neiehbor.

An incident illustrating the value Of
telephone service in case Of burglary
occurred recently in Putnam Mrs. Z.
Newton Tourtellotte. who lives in Riv-
er road, heard a noise in her house
and upon investigating found a man
trying to enter by one of the windows
As no other member of her family was
in the house at the time, she teephon-
ed to her nearest neighbor Edgar NJ
Smith, who sent his son with another
man to her assistance. They found
the burglar at work ON the window.
He started to run, but Smith opened
fire on him with his shotgun and they
finally succeeded in catching him.
If Mrs. Tourtellotte had not happened
10 have telephone in her home, the
probabilities are that the burglar in
stead Of being in jail at the present
time would have made away with his
booty.-Telephone Bulletin.

Three Degrees Below Zero.

perature of 3 below zero was record
ed, the coolest of the winter. Unofh
cial records as low as 10 below ZerO
were noted in sections Of Danielson.

the effect of keeping many of the usu-
ally week end shopping throng out Of

Congressman Asher Kinds, who. ac-
cording to the Boston Herald, knows
more about parliamentary law than
any other human on the continent,
has surprised everybody by not stand
ing on the floor of the house most of

pleasant for Speaker Champ Clark
When Mr.. Kinds ceased to be the
speakers parliamentary clerk and took
his seat in the house, he felt as care
free as z haberdasher's apprentice
from Kokomo on a two weeks out
ing at Atlantic City. He was so sick
and tired thinking about parliament
airy law that he wanted to forget
there was such a thing. Since then
when any of his republican colleagues
have tried to egg him on to bedevil-
ing Speaker Clark he has grmly but
POLITELY lodged, and his besiegers
nave had to figure out their own par
Hamentary law Congressman Kinds
has been working away diligently
enough, but so far as public utter
ances from the floor are concerned,

as inconspicuous as a booklkeeper.-
