 Berlin News HARD CIDER CAUSES FRIENDS TO QUARREL Tom Tunick and Mike Kenna Fined by Judge GrisWold WORK TOGETHER ON FARM
Came to Plainville as an Orphan When But a Child-Wide Circle of Acquaintances Grieve Over His Demisc-Tower Clock as Memorial Home of His Mother in KensingtOn on Saturday Evening--Acorns and Pirates Play Tie Game.

Court convened for the first time in three weeks this morning when Tom Tunick and Mike Kenna, bosom friends and co-workers on the farm of John T. Molumphy. were charged with drunkenness and assa ulting each other Fred Wrinkle, he we'll known New Britain constable, acted as in- terpreter
 William Brown, the first witness, said he saw the accused mauling and pAmmeling each other yesterday and both were intoxicated. Both had been imbibing in hard cider but the witness was unable to tell how the fight started. Stanley Petofski, foreman on Molumphy's farm, said they are both good workers and yesterday was the first time they have created any dis tuvbance The witness was very VOL uble in his answers and Prosecutor Gibney told him to "give it to us in small mouthfuls.' Both men had been drinking hard cider and for no ; apparent reason Kenna had struck Tunick.
 4 Kenna was then called to the stand and said he and Tunick were having a little party of their own so they went 'to Germans on the top of a big hiT and bought some cider" He pur- chased a gallon of the liquid for twenty-five cents and later Tunick < bought two more gallons. He was unable to give any reason for the quar- rel as both were intoxicated. He is married but his wife lives in Europe. Tupick gave practically the same } testimony.
 Prosecutor Gibney said there was no question but the men were guilty of the charges. While they did not dis turb anyone else, neverth eless he thought Sunday quarreling and drink ing should not be countenanced in the town and he asked the court to im- pose fine. Judge Griswold found the accused guilty on both counts and as- sessed fines of $1 on the first and $3 on the second. As both complaints were made on one warrant the costs were equally divided, so it cost Tunicll and Kenna $15 each for their Sunday disturbance Molumphy asked the men if they would return to work i'm mediately, if their fine was paid and mon their assurance that they would he paid the fine.

TETANUS DISAPPEARS \

X X X X Xxx xxx <kk<< +
The American people have reason
to congratulate. themselves over at
least one achievement, and that is
the rapid disappearance of Fourth of
July tetanus. While the total cas-
ualties of the glorious day are, less
than a quarter what they were five
years ago deaths from tetanus have
shown a much greater reduction. In
1908 there were AT Fourth of July
victims of that dread malady, in
1909 the number had been reduced
to 1870, while from last seasons cele-
bration there were but 3. This is
life conservation in the true sense
of the term. "Why not entirely ell
inmate the disease this year," asks
the United States Public Health SER
vice. =
The blank cartridge wound is the
great cause of Fourth of July to-
tanus. When driven into the tissues
the wadding carries with it innu-
merable bacilIi, and the absorption
of the poisonous products given off
during the growth of these organ
isDls produces the disease. The bacilli
thrive only in the absence of oxygen.
It is for this reason that the phys
10 kl1 80 i'll ~
and after removing all foreign ma
terial, dresses the; injury in such q
manner that development of the or
ganisms is inhibited. In order to
accomplish this it is usually neces-
sary to administer general anaes-
thetic. Anti-tetanic serum is Of
great value as prophylactic measure
but it should be given soon after the
receipt of the injury.
Parents should realize that Fourth
of July tetanus is easy to prevent but
extremely difficult to cure. No blank
cartridge wound is too trivial to- re-
ceive careful medical attention. How
ever slight the injury may appear,
summon a physician and at once
adopt energetic measures. Reliance
upon home, treatment may prove dis.
astrous and result in the sacrifice of
life: In 1903, before the widespread
recognition of the possibilities of.
preventive treatment, one case of te-
tanus developed to every four blank
cartridge wounds reported; in 1914.
there was but one case to every 40
such injuries. This is the measure
of the success of preventive treat.
