ATTEMPTED HoLD-UPs.
Bad Man with Gun Active on Lone-
 Iy Roads in South KiIlinsIy.

Persons who drive at night over the highways leading from Danielson to South Knhngly and Mashentuck are keeping a sharp lookout for danger ous character who has made two at tempted holdups, neither of which has
 been successful
 The two persons who have had the experiences with the knight of the road are A. P. Burns of South kAlingly and Timothy Morin of Danielson. MT.
 Burns met the fellow Friday night, but
 licity. Saturday night MT. Morin en-
 countered the man. This activity has
 made it patent that warnings should no longer be withheld.
 MT Burns was on his way iron. is home to Danielson to attend a choir rehearsal at the Methodist church when 8 man attempted to selze the bridle of his horse. MT. Burns hap the time. When the man reached for the bridle the horse shied and the fel- low missed. He then called to MT Burns to stop. but the latter replied that he was in hurry touched the horse with the whip and the animal sped on. In the brief period of con- Versation Mir. Burns saw the glint of a revolver in the mans right hand and as the horse dashed on two shots rang out, but neither took effect. This in cident occurred on the lonesome hisn- way at point about midway between Danielson and South Killingly.
 Saturday night Mir Morin was driv- Ing in the same section of the town, but on another lonely road in the vii cinity of what is known as the Frank farm. when a man attempted to hold him up. The fellow grabbed at one of the shafts of the vehicle and later hurled a rock against the dashboard.
 Neither Mir. Burns nor Mr Morin got any description of the man, which 1 would be very difficult under the cir 1 .unlstances, but there is reason to be- | ieve that the same person is respon- [ sible for both attempts at highway | work.
 That the fellow is a dangerous char 1 acter is indicated by the fact that he goes armed and does not hesitate to 1 shoot. An attempt will be made to ] ga pttIre him.
