 that wiser heads beguite The pains and ills of living with
 bright and sunny smile. Roy Temple House, in the November Nautilus

TRANSPORTED ANIMALS WITHOUT NEEDED CERTIFICATES Two Steamer Captains Were Fined in
 New London Court.

Capt. George H. Crandau was fined $lQ by Police Judge Colt Monday in the New London police court for vio lating, as agent for the Fishers Island Navigation company, the statute pro- hibiting the shipment of neat cattle under six months of age into Connecti- cut without a certificate of health in- spection. Supt. F. E. Hine of the Fishers Island farms paid the fine, as Captain Crandall, master of the com pany's steamer Restless, acted under his direction. Captain Crandall demur- red to the charge.
 Capt. William Raynor, charged with similar offer@e. as agent for the Montauk Steamboat company operat- ing steamer Montauk between New London and Long Island. was fined the same amount. The offenses are charged to have taken place on June 26. Both matters had been continued from Oct 3. Captain Gaynor demur- red and paid the fine.
 Prosecuting Attorney Crof1in told the court that the unlawful shipments had been made without certificates of healthfulness and without the permis- sion of the commissioner of domestic animals, as the statute provides. A veterinary had inspected the animals at Fishers Island in compliance with the United States regulations.
 Health Officer Black, who acted with Deputy Commissioner Of Domestic Animals Ingram told the court that he presumed the cattle, which were found to be unsound on Fishers Island were disposed of in this way. Superin- tendent Hine asked to be allowed to address the court in relation to the health officers presumption. All the cattle owned by the E. M. & w. Fergu- son company on the island, when found to be unhealthy, are condemned by the state of New York's inspectors; paid for by that state and removed under the direction of the state department of agriculture. Two cows the ship ment of which constituted the basis for the charge, were shipped to the island from Connecticut; were not al lowed to ningle with the company's s cows. and were isolated until they were shipped back. MT. Hine said he and employees of the company had not re- cefved notification from the Connecti- cut commissioner of domestic animals of the existence of the 1911 statute under which the prosecution was brought
 Judge Colt said, in imposing small fines. that he did not presume that Captain Crandall and Captain Raynor Intentionally violated the law

down to us from Harvey Smith, who up to fifty years ago lived on what is known as the Israel Brown farm in Howard Valley, about one half mile from the rocks. He related that the last of the Cowhantic Indians left the town about 1925. They would return about once a year selling baskets and begging for cider. One time he told them they could have some if they could shoot a. bird on a distant tree. One of them drew his bow and the ar row cut the bird in two. On his farm he frequently ploughed up old stone arrow heads which he said the Indians used to tie to their wooden arrows with the fire roots of the pine, which are very tough. The early settlers used these roots for shoe strings.
 As long as the Indians remained in the country they travelled the Nip muck trails. Probably the few re- maining to-day are descendants of the Cowhantic tribe.
