ELEVEN YEARS OLD
 RAFFLES ARRESTED
Louis MichOlowski Sent to Reform
 School-Gayin Goes to Jail .- Tax Delinquents in.

Louis Micholowski, II, young in years but old in crime, was sentenced to the reform school at Meriden by Judge James T. Meskill in police court this morning when he was found guilty of several thefts in this city including five watches and a reel of theater tickets. As this was the boys third appearance in colrt for similar offenses his commitment was ordered
 . On June 21 Louis entered a La fayette street store and made away with five watches. Two other boys watched for the police while the theft was committed and they Were later arrested In the meantime however, the Mich olowski family had moved to East Hampton. While liv- ing there the young hopeful of the family ran from home and came back to this city where he raided Keeney's theater and got away with a reel of tickets. Of late the family fame back to this city to live and the downfall of the youthful rallies followed.
 Charles Gavin, a we'll known young man about town of the curbstone artist variety, was sent to jail for fifteen days on a charge of breach of the peace preferred against him by James Doyle, livery stable owner. Gavin's worst fault is drink and he took a delerium tremens cure in Hartford sanitarium a few weeks ago. He was sent home last week and at once went on another rampage. Doyle testified that Gavin is either drunk of crazy all tSe time as he always acts the same. The family wanted the young man committed to the Norwich sylum but there was not sufficient evil dence so he was sent to jail to get the liquor out of his system.
 Edward Slater of 43 Liberty street was summoned to appear in police court this morning for failure to pay his personal tax. He was given until Saturday to pay the tax and the ad- ditional costs of $5.S2. Frederick W. Spencer of 275 Maple street was also given until Saturday to pay. M. H. Smith. George Matulas and Alex Mer- zen were also in for not paying their

Friday evening, November 12, in Hanna's Armory, and continues for nine nights. The admission is but 10 cents; so the fair in it's entirety can be enjoyed for less than a dollar. A diversity of entertainment, including the offerings of three crack minstrel troupes, and dancing each evening, With music by New Britain's best or chestras, will surely preclude any hesitancy on the part of anyone from attending the fair from a financial standpoint. In addition, the $3,000 in cash prizes to be given away on the closing night, surely makes the fair a most unusual attraction-advt.

COFFEE CLAIMS ITS
 VICTIMS BY HUNDREDS
Prominent Nerve Specialist Says Coffee Drinking Has Produced
 New Disease-Chronic Caffeinism.

There is distinct type of cases, ' says Dr. Wm. M. Leszynsky, consulting neurologist to the Manhattan Eye and Ear hospital, frequent among the poorer class of people, but by no means confined to them, of functional nervous disorder (caused by coffee drinking), to which the elastic term 'neurasthenia' or chronic caffeinism' in it's broadest significance may be aptly applied"
 "In cases of neurasthenia, inquire into coffee drinking" adds Dr. Otto Juettner.'
 "I have seen hundreds of victims of this disease continues Dr. Leszynsky, 'famong commercial travellers, brok- CTS, merchants, actors. writers, and men connected with the news depart ment of the daily papers.
 t'They usually complain of the fol- lowing symptoms, which are more or less pronounced: General headache and nervousness. apprehension in re- gard to some uknown impending trouble, mental depression and irri- tability, insomnia or restless sleep, bad dreams and sudden starting in sleep, awakening in profuse precipitation. general tremulousness and diminished muscular power, cardiac palpitations. less of appetite, and constipation"
 NOIE-It is a fact worthy of note that the American ood-drink-Instant Postum-has come widely into popu- lar use and favor with the recognition of the harmfulness of coffee. Postum has flavor resembling Old Java, but Is entirely free from caffeine or. any other harmful ingredient.

BEND GAME CHANGED
TO TUESDAY NIGHT

Making Coach Hindelang's task
more difficult than ever, the South
-Mishawaka basket ball game
has been changed from Wednesday
night 10 Tuesday. This gives one day
in Wink To replace four men and
build new attact and defense. The
local outlook is almost hopeless and
all that the fans are asking is that
team will do the best that IL can and
Will not quit.
1t is now definitely settled that
Capt. Bussert Will be unable 10 play
the remainder of the season as he
broke his wrist in the fracas against
the Friars last Tuesday evening.
Seifert will probably not be seen
in action again this season as he has
expressed his determination 10 Quit
his scholastic work. His loss at this
time is dOubly depressing To the team
as the offensive work was built
around him while Bussert was the
mainstay OF the defense. Burnett is
III and will be unable 10 fill the va
canCy at forward while Mcknight has
not yet recovered from the humps
so that he can not be used at this
place. The only apparent way TO fill
the vaca ncy is TO take Hunt from the
second team.

will offering will be taken which will
be forwarded TO the National Reform
association Of which Mr. Cannon is q
member
The former senator is one OF the
chief speakers selected by the Nation
al Reform association to carry out the
crusade against pOlygamy and dislOy-
atty of the Mormon kingdom which
was started some time ago. The cam
paign is to be carried out in every
state in the union and mass meetings
with speeches by speakers OF the as
ISOLATION are being held all over the
states. The purpose of the crusade
according 10 the association is TO
arouse the nation to a sense of peril
and to obtain from the federal gov
eminent such enactment and admins
tratiOn as shall speedily and effeCtu-
ally end the pretentiOns of the Mo-
hammeCan Mormon kingdom, and I'VE
are enliSting under the banners of
that crusade the Christian and patri-
otto men and Women OF the country"
says the advance notices.
In literature issued by the associa-
ton the following statements are
made: THE truth about the Mormon
church has been suppressed. That
truth must be made known. The
Mormon kingdom is ruled by a man
who lives with five wives-a polyga-
nous sultan in America The pOlyg-
amous Mormon kingdom keeps an
apostolic ambassador in the senate Of
the United States. Fifty-tWO years
ago Abraham Lincoln began n war
fare against the Twin Relic of Bar
barism-' Today the Mormon king
dom Is ten times as strong numeric-
ally and a thousand times as strong
financially and politically"
The same literature of the aSsOCia-
sion says OF Mr.. Cannon: The Ma
tional Reform association takes patri-
otto pride in presenting Mr.. Cannon
as the ablest living authority on the
Mormon kingdom. lie was the last
delegate in congress and the first SEN
ator from Utah His father was the
most powerful man in the Mormon
church after Brigham Young. He
was the chief negotiator of the treaty
between the national government and
the Mormon church when the Nor
mon chiefs surrendered"
