Wants to Know Why His

when I throw a ball I'm the air why
doesn't IL keep on gotngf why docs

TO understand why the ball you
toss in the air returns to the earth
again you must understand some
thing OF Newton's great law. the law
OF universal gravltation,-a moving
thing must keep on moving unless
something stops II.
Now when you toss a ball In the
air you give It force or motion and
It keeps on moving until something
stops It. It is stopped by two things
first the resistance OF the air
against which It pushes, but tho
more important thing that stops II
Is the earth's gravitation against
which 1t has TO fight until its force
Is exhausted. When the force you
gave to II is used UP pushing against
the air and pulling against the
earth's gravity II drops back to the
earth.
You will ind II very interesting
and well worth your while TO read
the story OF Sir Isaac Newton. the
famous scientist. who began study
Ing the laws Of gravitation when he
was only IL years old and made
many wonderful scientific discov-
cries.

The attempt to have DR.. Louis Cas-
sidy answer a question as to his
opinion as to how tetanus, or locljaw,
infection entered the system of the
late Arthur Desmarais was engaging
the attention Of the superior court at
the time of adjournment here on
Tuesday afternoon in the trial of the
suit ofC. A. eager, Jr.. administrator
o the estate of Arthur Desmarais,
against Jacob Gordon.
The suit is brought for the statutory
sum of $4,000. In the complaint it is
alleged that on august IS, 1914, Jacob
Gordon was running his automobile on
West Main street at Thames square
at a greater than reasonable and prop
er speed, exceeding % miles per hour
for a distance of more than one eighth
of mile, in consequence of which it
ran upon the sidewalk, striking Arthur
Desnlarais and causing the injuries
from which Desmarais died on Sep
TENDER 3rd.
DR.. Cassidy was the last witness on
the stand on Tuesday and in the
course of his testimony as to the in
juries to Desmarais stated that his
death at the Backus hospital occur
red from tetanus, or lockjaw. Attor-
ney J. J. Desmond, who with AttOr-
ney James J. Roman of Salem. Mass
is counsel for the plaintiff had the
witness describe the 1ockjaw ERIN,
which the doctor said he found in gar
den soil or in road beds where manure
had been scattered and which secures
entrance into the human system
through an open wound into which
dirt has been introduced.
When Attorney Desmond asked for
the doctors opinion as to how the
tetanus germ had been introduced in
the case of Desmarais, Attorney Had
lai A. Hull objected on the ground
that the question ought not to be al
lowed unless 1t could be shown that
the doctor had knowledge of all the
opportunities for infection Which
might have occurred in this case.
The attorneys argued at length over
this matter and Judge Gardiner
what might be shown and when court
adjourned questions were still being
asked by Attorney Desmond to prepare
the way for claiming the admission Of
the doctors opinion.
Attorney c. V. James is counsel with
Attorney Hull for the defendant.
When the trial of the case was
started on Tuesday morning, the fol-
lowing jury for the case was chosen:
William s. Geer, John T. Clark
Daniel Preston, Norwich; Thomas
McCiimon, Charles c. Zabriskie, Ed

FLIGHT over DOCTORS TESTIMONY
Defense in $4,000 Automobile Suit Tries to Exclude
Opinion to Lockjaw Infection Administrator of Es-
tate of Arthur Desmaras is Suing Jacob Gordon-Man
Died After Injuries Last August at Thames Square
Corner.

West Main and Themes street where
the accident occurred on the evening
of August Is and two men were
struck by the automobile driven by
Jacob Gordon.
Herbert H Brown, who was caught
and pinned up against the window of
the Rathbone drug store by the Cor
don automobile at the same time as
Desmarais was hurt, testified regard
ing the accident, He was badly hurt
about the legs at the time and was in
the Baclyus hospital for a considerable
time.
Lindsey G. Smith, the playwright,
who was an eyewitness of the acct
dent. followed Mr.. Brown on the stand
and after him Miss Madeline M. Fields.
student nurse at the Bacixus hos
pital, told of the care given ME-. Des-
marais while he was there.
Charles Delaware Turner, eolored.
who helped carry Desmarais into the
drug store after the accident, was also
put on the stand. Desmarais was
taken from under the auto unconscious
and it was day or two before his
identity was established. He formerly
came from Salem, Mass.
Jacob Gordon, owner and driver of
the automobile, who had his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Barnet Davidson, with him
at the time, was put on the stand and
described the accident, saying that it
was unavoidable and that he was not
driving at a dangerous rate of speed.
DR.. Louis T. Cassidy testified to be-
ing called to Rathbones drug store
by telephone and finding Herbert H,
Brown there injured. He gave him
some treatment and then went into
the back room, where another man
was stretched out unconscious, with
an extensive cut across his forehead,
DR.. Patrick Cassidy and DR.. H. E.
Higgins also came, The ambulance
was called and Mr.. Brown and the
other man. who was Desmarais, were
both sent to the Backus hospital in
the ambulance. Desmarais also had
a cut on his leg. The cuts were sewed
by Doctors Cassidy and Tingley and
a doctor at the hospital.
The witness testified that Desmarais
was getting along nicely for nine or
ten days, when lockjaw developed and
the man died three or four days after
that from Iockjaw. The doctor said
Desmarais appeared to be a strong,
robust man, in good general health.
A deposition is probably to be taken
from DR.. Patrick Cassidy, who is not
well enough to be in court.
Breach of Contract Settled.
When the superior court came in
in the morning Judge Greene was in
formed that the case of Walter o.
Whitaker VS.. Thames River Specialties
company had been adjusted out of
court. 1t was a claim for $4,000 for
breach of contract, but the amount
paid could not be learned.
The case was tried some time ago
and the jury disagreed. The case oc-
cupied about two weeks of the court
time.

81 West Main street, was struck and
almost instantly killed by a touring
car owned and driven by Frank Farm
ham of Gardner Lake. The accident
happened almost in front of the child's
home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Farnham, with their
two children. were on their way to
Norwich, and as they were driving
| through West Main street they met an
| approaching ice cart. Not knowing
that there were children following in
the wake of the ice cart, Mr., Farnham
did not slacken his speed, and when
the boy darted from behind the cart
right in front of the auto it was i'm
possible to stop. Mr.. Farnharn said
the first thing he saw was the radiator
strike the child, so suddenly did he
dart in front of the touring car.
Mr.. Farnham Immediately stopped
his car and picking the child up in his
arms carried him to the piazza of the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. M. ". B.
Pierson, where he laid him on q settee
AS Mr.. Farnham laid the child down q
tremor passed over his body and death
came.
a hurry call was sent in for the
auto ambulance and for DR.. Louis T.
Cassidy Dr. Cassidy hurried to the
scene of the accident, arriving there
within two minutes after he received
the call. DR.. Cassidy made a super
fetal examination and satisfied HIM
self that the boy was dead. No bruises
were found on the body, but there
were two wounds on the head and a
flow of blood from the mouth nose and
left ear and an apparent fracture at
the base of the skull. Medical Exam
iner Rush w. Kinball was called and

ice carts as they passed the house and
was continually playing in the street.

suits earlier in the year, when there
was scarlet fever among the children
of this school, viz: of keeping their
children as far as possible at home
and on their own premises, so that
every chance of spreading the conta-
gion may be avoided.
