Peter Miner was before the police court Friday morning to answer the charges of larceny and non-support of his wife and child since September first. The larceny charge was for a robe stolen from an automobile that stood in front of the Rose home one night during the recent carnival.

He was recently located in Worcester and brought to this city.
 First Selectman B. P. CheSbro was before the court and told of the mans wife coming to him for aid for herself and her child.

After hearing the mans story the court sus- pended sentence for a week to allow him chance to procure work. During the week he will be in charge of the probation officer who will see to it that the man keeps his promise.
