BOY SAYS HE STOLE
AS HE WAS HUNGRY
Joseph Brown. is Given Chance to
Make Good by Judge j. 7.
f.s Meskill.

Because he was hungry and had
no money with which to buy food ;
because his mother had turned him
out OF her house and his father had
refused to have anything to do with
him when he was discharged from
iail and because for the five days he
had worked for Louis Commick, a
peddlar, receiving but seventy five
cents remuneration he was prompted
to steal $1.5O from his employer was
the explanation made by Joseph
Brown. aged about eighteen years, to
Judge Meskill in police court this
morning.
Young Brown has had an unfor-
tunate life. When a boy he was COM
raitted to the state reform school at
Meriden and was kept there until a
few months ago when he was sent
home. Temptation proved to great
for him and he stole small sum Of
money from q man for who he was
working. For this offense he was
sent to Jail when the reform school au-
thorities stated they would not take
him back Upon his liberation from
Jail a short time ago he returned to a
home where he was given no encour-
agement.
This morning Prosecutor Klett
placed all the facts before Judge
Meskill and stated that a person who
had interested himself in the boys
welfare had promised to get him a
job If he should be given another
chance, Detective Sergeant Bamforth
also spoke in favor Of the boy and
said he thought if given a chance un-
der the proper conditions the youth
might turn over a new leaf and make
something Of himself.
Brown himself said he wanted to
60 to work and do the right thing.
Judge Meskill placed him on proba-
ton until August Is.

Carpenter Shop burned.

Last Friday evening about s
o'clock a fire was discovered by
Theodore Williams in the Con-
struction building owned by }. N
Hollenbaugh and used as a car
penter shop. The alarm was i'm
mediately given and soon almost
the entire townspeople were there
to do their part in putting it out.
The hose cart was there in jifiy
and two streams of water was
turned on and faithful work by
our citizens was done to save the
building and contents, but the
fire had gained too much head
way before it was discovered. as
the whole inside of the northeast
corner had been burned and the
fire broke through the roof be-
fore il was discovered, and after
it got to the outside the wind
hurried things along. II it had
not been for the high wind we
believe the bigger part of the
building and contents would have
been saved, as i. was the build
ing and contents were entirely
destroyed. The building and
plant Was valued at something
like S., 600, with small amount
of insurance of about 81, 500.
This surely is a hard blow on Mr.
Hollenoaugh. How the fire orig
mated is not known. Mr.. Lenl-
han had some feed stacked in his
yard, about thirty feet east of
the fire and by diligent work on
the part Of our citizens, not a
particle of it was burned, which
showed good judgment in hand
ling the fire, and also shows that
our waterworks are adequate in
case Of emergencies Of this kind.
