DRUNK'S NOVEL PLEA,
 LEAVES IT TO COURT
And Court Leaves It to Him to Pay Fine Of $5 and
 Costs

A novel plea was entered by Carl Carlson this morning when, charged with drunkenness, he said, "I leave it to the court His confidence :~ the court was misplaced, for he was adjudged guilty, and fined $5 and costs. He was arrested by Officer Strolls at 1915 o'clock this morn ing on Main street and resisted all the way to the station
 August Schmidt said he was drunk when Officer Axel Carlson arrested him on Church street at 12:15 o'clock this morning, but he was mot so drunk that I had to lay down on the street, This was his first offense and the court suspended judgment.
 Another drunk, Frank Kata, was arrested by Officers William Grace and Patrick Howley. He was fined $5 and costs.
 Frank Silver, of 39 Franklin street, was in court for failure to pay his personal tax. He appeared and ex- plained he was not the man wanted. His cousins name is Frank Silver, too, and he is the man wanted. Tony Maria and John Fila were ordered to appear in court for failure to pay their tax. They offered no excuses and paid up.
 Judge Meskill fined Wadislaw Ar kofski $2O for hitting Charles Majuka with beer glass on February 8. An other man was arrested for the of- fense and when the police found out their error Arkofski had fled to Greenfield, Mass Through his law yer, w. F. Delaney, he was informed that if he returned and pleaded guilty he would get off with fine. He came back and received his fine to- day. He was represented by Attorney George Levitt this morning.

 There is bad flaw in the reason ing of the gentlemen who, with sucil a show of economic wisdom, would eliminate the human equation from the teachers pension bill.
 AS matter of fact the law should, of course, apply to all present teach CTS. It would be heartless, unjust shameful, to exclude the compara- tive few who are beyond the point where they might be induced to teach in other states And it is equally heartless, unjust and shameful to ex- clude those who, in some cases from the highest and incest sense of honor, have resigned their positions because they felt that they could no longer render as efficient service as young and unworn teachers.

Both Cold Flooded and Illogical.
(New London Day.

If the Connecticut legislature pass es the teachers pension bill without amending it so as to bring under its benefits veteran teachers whose cases meet all the requirements of the bill excepting that they are not now in ac- tive service, it will be guilty of a grave injustice to a small but ex- tremely deserving class of citizens. The argument that is presented against the extension of pension bene- fits to teachers who are already re- tired after having completed the period of service that is stipulated in the bill, is this: It is claimed that the measure is not intended to do justice to anyone; it is not to be adopted in recognition of the merits or labors of any person in the past, but purely as a guarantee for the future, made for the sole purpose of enabling this state to compete, in se- curing and holding teachers, with other states that already have pen sion laws.
 This claim rather f1ourisningly puts itself on a purely scientific basis. Its advocates seem to glory a bit in it's cold blooded mathematic quality. Now, if the teachers pension bill is to fulfill no other purpose than the improvement of Connecticut's status as market for teaching talent, why is not this purpose carried to its log ical conclusion?
 Why did not the framers of the bill ascertain the age or the period of service at which teachers are no longer liable to be called away from Connecticut and then exclude from the benefits of the measure those present teachers who would not be drawn away in any event, pension or no pension? If the line is to be laid on a purely mathematical basis, what is the use of throwing away the pen sloh money that will be paid to vet eran teachers still in the service of the state? It is only necessary to make the provisions of the law apply To the present young teachers, those more desirable ones who are to

Unqualified Optimism Of Approach Ing Concerted OnS.aught on Germans

London, March 6, 1:3O D. m.--The end of the thirty-first week of the war and the first signs of better wea
 ther conditions after a hard winter find the allied armies in the western theater nearing readiness for that con- certed onslaught on the Germans in
 the preparation of which General
 Joffre and Field Marshal Sir John French have been doing so much spade work during the last four months.
 From the sea through the dunes of Flanders to Arras in France, the
 British and the Belgian armies will appear today to have withstood sue cessfully all the attempts of the Ger
 mans to break through their lines while from Arras to the tipped ridges of the Vosges the French con- tinue to win slowly forward. This is especially true in the Champagne dis. trict, although the skilful German commanders exact a heavy price for. every step gained in this section tow ard what the French hope soon will result in freeing the city of Rheims from the attention of the German howitzers.
 Near East Prussia.
 The unqualified optimism with which, judging from the trend of the comment in the London newspapers today, the outcome of the approach ing gigantic struggle is regarded ir Great Britain, France and Russia can be attributed largely to the remark able recuperative powers shown by the troops of Emperor Nicholas. These soldiers. in spite of the fierce hlows of the German armies under Von Hindenburg, has been able not only to bring Teutonic progress to a standstill but to push the invaders back along virtually the whole front until at one point at least, it is ad mitted in Berlin. the fighting has again moved very near to the East Prussian frontier.
 In the south also the Russians ap- pear to have frightened their grip on Galicia during the past few days and they are reoccupying the crown land of Bukowina with forces sufficient ac- cording to their claims to make their tenure permanent.

AUTOMOBILE STUCK
ON BEACH II HOURS

One Of G. Cooks touring automo-
hiles, driven by Alfred Watts, had Il
very narrow escape from being swept
out to sea Saturday night. Coming
up the beach, between Daytona and
Port Orange. about 1900 o'clock in
the evening. the chauffeur held the
car as close to the waters edge as
possible, in order to avoid oh
structions in the way of logs washed
up on the beach Two miles north Of
Port Orange, the machine stuck in
the sand, and efforts to extricate it
were altogether futile. The several
passengers. seeing that the tide was
rapidly rising, got out and made their
way back TO the city. Watts stayed
with the car all night, during which
time it sank nearly two feet In the
sand, and at one time was entirely
covered by sea water.
Watts came over Sunday morning
and reported the matter A little later
a party Of men went to the beach, AMI
after working for hours, succeeded in
prying the heavy machine from its
almost concrete-like bed. 1t was
towed back to the city, and is now
heine repaired AT one Of the local
garages.
The driver of the auto says that
heavy fog rendered his lights almost
useless, and this fact caused him to
pass the danger line further than he
realized, until it was too late.
