Charged with intoxication, Thomas Conlon of Pierce street will be ar raigned before Justice A. H. Condcll late today Constable Anderson hav- ing arrested him near the center last evening. According to the officer Con- lon was under the influence of liquor and was causing a disturbance when taken into custody
 The accused and his friends deny that he was drunk and they are in clined to blame the officer for being too arrogant.
 Justice Condell, however, claims that Conlon was intoxicated when he came before him to give bonds for his appearance at the hearing, and he would not have released him only his brother, John E. Conlon promised to take him home.
 Fined for Contempt
 While the matter Of granting bail to ConlOn was under consideration, Thomas Cassidy, who was in the court room, expressed himself regarding some of the methods practiced by the cOnstables. He declined to heed a warning from Justice Condell to be quiet and he was fined $1 for con- tempt of court.
 Justice Condell said he simply wished to impress on the young man the advisability of deporting himself respectfully in the court room, and when he went to settle, the fine WaS renitted.

 Postmaster P. J. Prior has received notice of a change in the route coV- cred by Rural Carrier Rupert Mercy to become effective on May 1. The postal authorities are making an en- tire revision of the system in the county, and as the result of the changes the local carriers salary is to be increased from $1,156 to $1,200 a year.

 His new route will include a part of Pennington, and Red Stone Hill will be taken from him. The Carrler will make his start from Hart's cor" ner going east until he loops into Pennington avenue. He will continue into Pennington and from the post office in that village will get mail for delivery in Scott's Swamp and Vlcln- ity.

Berlin, Conn.,,
 April 22, 1916.

Editor New Britain Herald:-
 Dear Sir: In your article of We'd nesday, April 18th, in The New port of the Berlin adjourned town meeting, I want to say that the state ment attributed to me that Judge Gaffney advised mo as a client is wrong and not in fact true. I did not intend to convey the idea that he was my attorney. In the conversa- ton with Judge Gaffney, acting as at torney for the Town of Berlin, when he had demanded the delivery of the books, l told him that 1 did not care to turn the collectors books over until they had been properly audited, that the books might be tempered with or the accounts falsif1ed in some way. Judge Gaffney suggested that hands of the town officials that I might possibly make arrangements to have them meet with me and have the auditors audit the books in my presence. If I made any statement to the contrary l want to correct it. If l have placed Judge Gaffney in a wrong light before the public I want to do all in my power to make amends. l am going to turn over the collectors books to the auditors of the Town of Berlin, as my confidence in Judge Gafney is so great that I believe the interests of the Town of Berlin and of myself will be pro- tCCtCd.

 Fishing Trip Postponed.
 Several Kensingtonites had planned a fishing trip to Whigville yesterday, but sad to relate, they never reached that place.

The local ~Isaak Wal tons Were on hand at the appointed hour, but no automobile could be found, About 630 o'clock, Mr. Hull put in his appearance on foot. Some miscreant had stolen his machine during the night Later in the day, the automobile was found at the cor her of Washington and Broad streets, New Britain, abandoned. So the boys were unable to gather in the Main street tonsOrial parlOrs last night and give out the news of the big ones they just missed

DEsERTER's UNIQUE DEFENSE
<AGos<
Officers Couldn't Teach Him to Drill
Englishman Told Judge

There is something rather fine
about the excuse made by desertel
who was charged at Willesden police
court. says the London Globe. This
unfortunate was unable to read OF
write, which just shows that educa-
ton can have no influence on the
qualities of the heart. He told the
bench that he left the army because
he was so sorry for the officers. A
captain, two lieutenants, a sergeant
major, two sergeants and three cor
porals had tried to teach him to
drill; but he was totally unable to
learn it.
Why, argued this man, illiterate
but of noble mind, waste the time of
these able officers on useless labor?
Why impose on them the Sisyphean
toll of trying to drill the undrillable?
He could imagine the enthusiasm
with which they turned to the in
structiOn of more teachable recruits.
We could wish there were more
like him, remarks the Globe. There
are those who are unable to learn,
but cannot recognize it. You may
tell a certain type of office boy fuor
thousand times to put the waste pa
per basket on the right side of your
desk, and on the four thousand and
first time he will place it on the left,
as ever. But he will not dream of re-
moving himself. How different from
the deserter of Willesden?

If any man with the instincts of a
gentleman, or one who believes in
justice or fair play, goes to a meet
ing of any kind-even one conduct
ed by colored people-he will be-
have himself and keep quiet. But the
orders have gone out all over this
state to interfere with free speech,
and in several places where Mr..
Knott or his advocates have spoken
the same disgraceful tactics have
been used as were employed here.
Keep it up, gentlemen; if there ever
was any doubt of Mr.. Knott's cleo
tion, such methods will insure it.

Raney declaring that he never made
such a statement, and that all indi-

election of Knott by a substantial
majority. If the Tribune or any
other paper attempts to correct the
statements made by Mr.. Cats it will
not have time or space for anything
