William Norman Curry, age twelve
 son of Rev. B. J. Curry, pastor of
 Grace Methodist church, while riding a bicycle in Canal street, Monday
 morning, was run down by an auto
 mobile owned by c. G. Parker, now
 at Watch Hill and operated by John l Bowling. The boy was taken into the l office of Dr. John L. May who found | a deep cut in the back of his head which was closed with two stitches. l The boys back was severely bruised. The injuries are not of serious na- l ture.
 The Curry boy retained conscious ness during all the surgical and med icaI treatment, in fact did not shed tear or utter a word significant of pain. He had been in the office less l than a, minute when he voluntarily told the doctor, that the chauffeur was not at fault
 The boy said: q came out of MT. Murphy's store mounted my bicycle, and rode diagonalIy across the street. was going in the same direction" When questioned he said he did not know whether the automobile was gO- l ing fast or slow, but insisted that the | accident was due to his own careless ness. He did not know whether the | auto horn was sounded, but if it was he did not hear it.
 MT. Bowling stated that he was driving very slowly in swinging from 1 High street into Canal street, where the accident occurred, when the boy drove his bicycle in front of the au tomobile, evidently intending to take 1 the extreme right hand of the road | The bicycle moved so quickly to the | right, that the auto could not he stop | ped in time to avert the accident. Mr. 1 Bowling stopped and started to pick
 up the boy, but he had been picked up
 and was already being carried into Dr. l Mays office. The automobile then i proceeded to the railroad station. A i few minutes later he called at the doc tors office. left his name as well as l the name of the owner of the autOmo- | bile and his Watch Hill address. l In the meantime Chief of Police | Brown and PatrOlman West arrived at | pr. Mays office. When the boys wound was dressed, Chief Brown sent an automobile for the parents and the boy was taken to his home in the Methodist parsonage. Chief Brown says that the boy was somewhat dag ed when he relieved the chauffeur Of responsibility. but that the damaged bicycle and the general conditions in dicate that had the chauffeur exercised due care the accident would have been averted.

That there is brutish instinct in Some human bainas Mas claroonstratad

That there is brutish instinct in some human beings was demonstrated Sunday night in a row that occurred in what was supposed to be a social gathering in the Pierce Street section. George Galluci claims that he was at tackled by Pasquale Desmonde in true bulldog style and that during the en- counter his left ear was so severely chewed that amputation may be nec- ecessary. Galluci is confined to his bed by reason of the injury, while it is claimed that Desmonde was in such a position during the tussle that his teeth were the only means of of fence.
 The case was not reported to the police until late in the afternoon of Monday, and Chief Brown immediately commenced investigation and the col lection of evidence. It is quite prob able that Desmonde will be apprehend- ed and arraigned upon a charge of vi olent assault, or perhaps, a more se- riOuS charge.

in Bradford, England, forty eight years ago, and who said his present hailing port was Willimantic, drifted into the Westerly police station Saturday night in the teeth of the severe wind and rain storm, and declared he was a derelict and could proceed no further. He said he had been on temptest- Ious trip and had been sailing close to the wind. lie was in bad shape, physically, and needed care and atten- tion and 1t would be a relief to be committed to some institution After hearing his story and realizing his weakened condition, Chief Brown de- cided to get him to a port of safety.
 There were no accommodations for stranded sailors or pedestrian tourists at the police station, so Henry Oscar Norton was placed in a cell charged with being an idle person with no visible means of support. When ar raigned before Judge Williams, in the Third district court, he pleaded gull ty to the charge and was sentenced to six months in the state work house at CranStOn

MERCHANT SUBMARINE
 PREPARING TO SAIL
Bedding of DeutschIand's Crew Slowed
 Below Deck.

Baltimore, Md, July 24.-A series of events this afternoon at the pier where the merchant submarine Deutschland is berthed indicated that her departure would not be delayed long. The most significant of these were the filling of her water tanks and the slowing below her deck of the crews bedding as it was removed from the interned North German Lloyd steamer NeCkar nearby. Since their arrival two weeks ago the Deutsch- lands crew have been sleeping aboard the Neckar.
 Shortly after the water tanks had
