MOOSUP
Mrs. Jane p. Prior's 83d Birthday on Sunday the Occasion of Many Con- gratuIations.


 Mrs. Jane P Prior celebrated her Sd birthday last Sunday and received many callers and letters of congratu- lations.
 Mrs. Prior is a remarkably well pre- served lady, being mentally as keen as Q girl in her teens, hearing perfect and eyeSlSht good. She keeps posted on the topics of the day and in matters of ancient local history is an encycIo- pedia.
 Mrs. Prior was born in Stone Fac tory village, Sterling, Aug 13, 1883, a daughter of Eben Phillips, who was an oFerSeer in the old cotton mill, later displaced by the United States Finish ing company. At the age of 13 her parents moved to Moosup, where MT. Phillips was an oVerseer at Isawton's mill, Almyville. While in MOosup she attended Stephen Halls private school.
 Among the few now living at the time she attended this school is Charles H. Spalding, D. D., of Boston, A few years later the family moved to JeWett City, where MT. Phillips was oVerseer of carding at the old Slater mill.
 In 1860 Mrs. Prior became the wife of Havilah NJ. Prior of PIainfieId, and since that time has resided continually in Moosup.
 In early life she united with the JeWett City Baptist church and later united with the Baptist church at Moosup by letter.
 MT. Prior died in 1890 and since that time she has made her home with her son, Judge John E. Prior.
 Her great grandfather Benjamin Williams, was o soldier in the War of the Revolution.
 MT. Prior was a descendant of Lieut, Thomas Tracy, one of the first settlers of Norwich.

607 Atwelrs avenue, Providence, at Chepachet, R. l., Sunday evening, H. r. Prentice Of this city, said Monday afternoon that the affair was unavoid able in that BuEhee stepped from the
 running board of his own car directly in front of MT. Prentice's car. which he was driving.
 The accident happened in the Main street of Chepachet, where Bushee, who was out with a party of relatives,
 says he sounded his horn as a warn- Ing to Bushee of the approach of an- other machine and denied that his horn as a warning to Bushee Of the nied that his horn was not working, as was claimed in an item sent out from Chepachet.
 Bushee was attended by Chepachet
 physician and afterwards taken to his home in Providence.
 The case Is being investigated by Town Sergeant Abraham Bushee of Gloucester. The route through Che pachet is the one chiefly used by Put nam motorists travelling between this city and Providence and the Rhode Is- land shore resorts.
 Though Lost Registration Counted. Frank H. Cordier. an active worker of the French Circle of Advancement, which discussed the matter at a meet ing Sunday evening, said Monday af- ternoon that he and 4. A. Brodeur, Napoleon Jette, Henry G. Trudeau, Ar thur Magnan were given to under stand by the registrars of voters Hermon G. Carver and George Potvin last Friday evening that the young man who had first filed applications last week to be registered on the dem- oCratic caucus list and afterwards had changed their minds and registered at republicans would be considered as registered on the republican list, for that the last registration would be considered as the one that counted. The interview with the registrars, MT. Cordier says, took place at the Muni- cipaI building last Friday evening about 8.30. Mir. Cordier and his friends were therefore much surprised by the announcement that the registrars af- | ter having secured legal advice on the
 point. would not consider the duplicate registrations as counting at all. MT. COrdier says the only result will be harder work on the part of him self and friends to secure many addi- tiOnal voters, to offset the loss sus- tained by the ruling.

MORE TIRE SLASHlNG
 REPORTED TO POLICE
Lonq Clean Cuts Are Found Through
 Shoes Even to Inner Tubes.

DanieIson has one of the meanest mon in the state-an automobile tire alGsher. Another case of tire cutting has been reported to the police and tie matter is under investigation. A very sharp instrument has been used on the tires cut so far and the scoun- drei who is doing the work has done it with such vengeance that every tire he has attacked has had to go to the vulcanizer.
 The tires are slashed open with long clean cuts that go right through the shoe and. in some cases, to the inner luhes What the object of the vanda1- Ism, no one seems able to determine. Cars left standing in the business sec ton have had tires cut so whoever is doing the work is not afraid to take thc chances of being discovered.
 4 close watch is being maintained to discover if possible who is doing tha damage, but as yet the vigil has not been rewarded with any success.

Asa Benoit, employed as a bartend- CT at Smiths cafe, South Main street, was bound over, under bonds of $500, to appear at the September term of the superior court after a hearing in the city court before Judge l.. H. Full | Ter Monday morning relative to an oc- currenCe in which Henry Allerie, a transient mill worker. had his leg broken at the cafe about 13 weeks ago. Samuel Smith, manager of the cafe,
 became surety for MT. Benoit's ap- pearance.
 On the witness stand Allerie, who
 for weeks after having suffered the fractured leg was a patient at the
 Day -KimbalI hospital said that on the Smiths cafe and asked for a drink.
 He was told by Benoit that he had enough to drink and that he could have no more AIlerie said that there
 was some talk thereafter and BenOit
 came from behind the bar and seized
 him. In the struggle that followed, All
 lerie testified, Benoit kicked him in
 the leg. indicting an injury that later proved to be a fracture, and that an other bartender came and helped eject
 him from the place.
 Benoit denied the charges made by Allerie and said that the scufde was
 started by the plaintiff and that no
 more force than necessary was en-
 ployed in ejeCting him.
 What Benoit said as to the scuff1e
 was substantiated by M. H. Fish and Thomas Bibeault who were in the sa-
 loon at the time of the struggle. Leon SefcilI, another bartender en-
 ployed with Benoit, was in court to
 face a charge of assaulting Allerie, but
 he was discharged for lack of evidence against him.
