 There was a shooting aFfray in the saloon of NataIe Bemenuti in Canal
 
 being PasquRIe Salameno, former town constable, saloon keeper and bootbiack, and who, up to the present time has had clean record The man shot at was Charles Brown, better known as Sandy" an occasional tough customer, and who several years ago struck the late Cornelius Bransfield. chief of police, in the head with a baseball bat. But this was one or the times when Sandy was not at fault.
 There were several men in the saloon at the time of the shooting. PasQuale and Sandy got in a dispute. PasQuale abused Sandy and threatened to put him out of the place. He took hold of Sandy and started to put his threat into execution. Sandy protested and then resisted. and PasQuale could not move him. Then Pasquale became an gered and struck Sandy in the head with the butt end of a revolver. Sandy then made a grab for PaSquale, who stepped baokward took aim at Brown
 In an instant Pasquale was un- armed, Policeman Mitchell notified and Pasquale was arrested. Dr. Scanlon was summoned and made close exaIni- nation of Brown and was surprised to find that Brown was not injured. The bullet had struck just over the heart, a glancing shot, passing through Browns S coat, his padded vest and two shirts, grazed the flesh, but did not enter the body. It was a miraculous escape for Brown, as a slight deviation of the aim would have caused the bullet to enter the body in a vital part.
 Pasquale Salameno spent the night in the police station and will be ar raigned in the Third district court Wednesday morning.

The records of the town of stoning-

The records of the town of Stoning- ton are carefully preserved and the earlier record books will perhaps com pare favorably with the best preserved in the country. Town Clerk Elias B. Hinckley has held the office for many years and has become a life fixture. The earlier records are strongly re- bound and the book leaves are pre- served by the silk process and are guarded with great care by Clerk Hinckley. The clerks office is not the most elaborate in the universe, but it is cosy and complete in equipment. It is believed that Clerk Hinckley was the first in New England, or the whole country, to install book typewriter and the machine has continued to be in good working order. The writing is done direct on the pages of the record books, and the machine in the Ston- ington office is the only kind that will write direct in the books. The more modern typewriting machines are adapted to loose leaf books which Town Clerk Einckley does not consider as safe as the solidly bound book, where the leaves cannot be readily removed.
 Clerk Hinckley is also judge of pro bate, and the two offices are in the same building, adjoining each other on the first floor The upper floor is de- voted to the board of assessors and the board of relief. John Fl. Ryan is the competent clerk in Judge HinckIey's office The town extends from Pawca- tuck to Mystic.
