SET THREE FIRES
Youthful Firtbugs Make Three Different
Attempts
Damage Was Slight. Wanted TO See
Buildings Burn

Two youthful firebugs, one and
the other years old, were brought to
the police station Wednesday morning
and before Prosecuting Attorney
johnson, the captain of police and the
chief of the fire department confessed
to setting three fires Tuesday after
noon In the business section of the city.
The first ire vas set In the door al
the south end of the Congregational
church. Some painters at work
smelled smoke and upon investigation
found the chapel annex filled with
smoke. An alarm was given and the
motor truck responded but the blaze
had been put out before the firemen
arrived. The door had been pried
open a short way and some papers put
in the crack thus formed and set on
fire.
The second blaze was in the renr Of
the Bradley theatre. The smoke was
smeIled by chorus girls in the dressing
rooms downstairs under the stage. A
board near the stage entrance door was
found burning and quickly extingu.
ished. II the fire had been started Il
few minutes later while the show was
going on and the house filed with peo-
pie and an alarm of fire given il might
have caused stampede of the audi
ence and someone might have been
hurt.
The third blaze was started in a
blacksmith shop on Livery this
fire was set in an old bureau drawer in
the place and was put out by man
who SAW the smoke.
The two little boys admitted their
guilt. Attention was drawn 10 them
as they had been seen lettering about
in the vicinity and had been known as
truants from school. Each tried to
put the blame on the other. They
said they found box of matches and
started the fires to see The buildings
burn. One boy stated that the .other
proposed 10 burn the church because
he said il was Protestant church.
After the fathers Of the lads had
agreed with the prosecutor to put the
boys in a Catholic institution in Bos-
ton it was decided 20 let The matter
rest for the present to see If they keep
this agreement.

City Court

Annie Marion was sentenced by
Judge Fuller in the city court Satur-
day morning to Sl5 and costs and to so
days in Jail on two counts for intoxica-
lion.
Annie has been working as dish
washer and general utility woman in
north.end boarding house. A week
ago she got lit up on tirewater and con
ceived the idea that she was the real
and only town cutup. She made so
emphatic her idea that it disturbed
the dodgers and she was forthwith
placed under arrest.
When arraigned in court Annie was
the personitication of remorse and even
shed few tears when she promised
Faithfully to stop drinking liquor and
return To her nome in Worcester. But
Annie unfortunately did not return 10
the Bay State city. She continued
her spree and soon again made herself
so obnoxious that complaint was en-
tered and she was again arrested. This
time the court did not feel that any
leniency WINS due her and the press did
not feel that the court proceeding
should be censored so Annie went TO
Jail and has her name published in
the paper.
Monday morning John Gucwa, a
Pole, was charged with drunkenness
and assault on his wife Mary. John
came home from Webster Saturday ev-
ening about 9o'clock. He was intoyi
Gated. His faithful wife asked him
what he would like for supper but he
did not feel like eating. He Was
thirsty however and wanted a half
dollar for supply of beer for Sunday.
His wife thought the family account
would only stand quarter and this
| WAS doled oat. John left home and
did not return until midnight. His
wife told him that she thought he
should stay at home with his wife and
child, who were lonesome. He took
offense at this good advice and became
| abusive threatening TO whip the enid
and kill his wife. He then hit his
wife with his fist blackening her right
eve, threw her on the bed and threw a
chair at her. Neighbors inlerfered
ana stopped the row. Mrs. Gucwa Is
in delicate state OF health.
Prosecuting Attorney Johnson told
the court that in his opinion the man
should be severely dealt with and hs
thought the maximum sentence Of SIS
months would be about right. He sait
that brute could not be treated thi
same As a man.
The court imposed a sentence Of
fine Of $50 ana costs for intoxicatioi
and 90 DAYS for assault. The accuses
was asked II he would sign an order .
that the wife could get the money du
him nj the mill where he worked bu
| this he refused TO do. His only ex
PLANTATION OF his actions was that hi
wife wanted him To stay al home all
the time and didn't want him TO drinl
beer.

HISTORIC
INSTRUMENT

the grandson to play on the violin.
The fageolet is of wood of light

and was in General Putnam's fegi-
ment. During the war of 1912 he was
engaged in building military road

REAM ELOPEMENT
Hasty Marriage Brought Back To
Mind By New Legal Proceedings
Girl He Wed 10 Attack YiIidity OF
Marriage Annulment

! According to New York newspape RS,
/ papers are expe cted TO be filed this
week attacking the validity of the
| annulment of the marriage of Louis
| Marshall Ream, son of the late Nor
man b. Ream, millionaire, and Flea.
rus girl. Miss Davidson, or Mrs.
| Ream, AS she still calls herself, is
thinking OF another matrimonial haz-
ard The annulment was obtained
four years ago on the ground that no
license was obtained for the marriage
and that il was not recorded. The
identity of the new sutton is as yet n
mystery.
Young Resm and Miss Davidson
were married on Sept. 1, 1911, at q
very early hour of the morning, by
a Justice of the Peace in Hoboken
Ream drove his bride over in his
car and she was accompanied by her
sister. The wedding party returned
to the apartment OIL the brides mother
Several days later young Ream de.
cided it would be. wise to go TO his
fathers residence on an estate at
Thompson, and inform his pare mt
That he had n daughter-in-law. He
departed with the understanding that
as soon as he got back he and his wife
would 90 TO the Hotel Gotham To live.
She had all her trunks packed in
readiness for the removal, but her
young husband didn't come back.
Many days passed without word
from him. Finally telegram came
to her from him. 1t was single
word-"Forgiven" But it was not
followed by the return of the husband
or an invitation to the bride to present
herself at his parents home.
Prior TO her marriage her blonde
beauty had been seen in the choruses
and in small parts in the "Slim
Princess" "The Bachelor Beleso
and in London in "Peggy."
The marriage being annulled, the
Ream family proceeded to make
financial settlement with Miss David
son.
The reports had it that the bride
sigred away all rights fofSI0,0 900 Those
on the Ream side of the case who
knew just what she did get would not
state the figure, but Attorney I. II. H.
Embert, the Davidson family lawyer
in Baltimore, was asked if it was
$4,000.
THAT'S bosh,n said the attorney.
sSueh an amount is diminutive when
compared with the proper figure. In
deed, | might say nomlnally dlminu-
tive. Any statement that such was
the amount made by any one was
made deliberately with the purpose of
misleading.
Young Ream, it is said, has not
seen Broadway for a long, long time.
He no longer resides in New York,
but holds responsible and lucrative
post in big steel company in which
the estate has large holdings.
His legacy is so tied up that he has
control only of the income from it
until he is thirty.five years old, when
one-fourth of the principal will be
placed in his hands. He has not re
married, nor, it Is declared, has he
any known plans in that direction.

P.HS. Beats South Manchester High

Putnam High wound up its basket
ball season Wednesday night by de-
feating South Manchester high by
score of 80 30. Putnam by winning
this game peeks clean its record of no
defeats on its own floor, although the
visiting five pressed tGem throughout
the game. The pass work of the risi-
tors was the fastest and cleverest that
has been displayed in the local gym
this season, and when it came TO get
ting the ball down the hall Putnam
was outclassed from the start. 1t was
only the locals ability TO shoot that
gave them the victory, Crockett and
the three Moriarty boys starred for the
visitors, while Shaw and Lowe were
the Putnam mainstays. After the
game the two teams enjoyed a banquet
served by the teachess of the high
school.
