 he meant no trouble but got mixed
 up when starting to walk home. Sam
 uel did not appear and his bond of
 S1Oo, furnished by Paul Soioman, was declared forfeited. Later Samuel ap- peared with Solomon but court had adjourned
 Mrs. Leeds telephoned to Sergeant Y. M. Herting at police headquarters shortly after 1 o'clock yesterday morning that two men were about her home trying to get in. The patrol with Policeman Gustave Hellberg was sent to the scene. About that time Supernumerary McAvay came along and was interested to note the antics of the men on the veranda of the Leeds home. He had them under, arrest when the patrol arrived Al that time both claimed to live on Broad street, said that they went tome earlier in the evening but were disgusted when no one responded to their calls for admittance and went for a walk.

DANCE HALLS LED
 ID GIRLS' DOWNFALL
Police to Act Following Stories of Youthful Prisoners

As an aftermath of highly uncOn- ventional conduct with chance male acquaintances, Tillie Peterson, also known as Tillie Johnson, of 200 Hart, lord avenue and Ethel Cherniak of 112 West street. aged seventeen years, were committed to the Florence Crit tenden Mission at New Haven for the remainder of their minority by Judge James T. Meskill at hearir; in chambers this morning. They were taken to the institution later in charge of Miss Elsie c. Osborn, pro- hation officer.
 Accustomed as the court officials are to shocking testimony, the stories told by the girls came as a revelation. As result of their stories, several Berlin young men are likely to find themselves prominently i'll the lime light. and searching inquiry is likely as to their alleged conduct with the girls The accused al!ege that they went to Berlin one afternoon last week, met the men and passed the afternoon in room near one. of the barber shops One of their acquaint- ances, they contend. pretended that he worked near and had much leisure time One night, according to the girls was passed with the men in one of the sheds at the Berlin fair grounds and another night in a trol- lev waiting room just outside of Mer- :den.
 Prior to their return to New Brit ain, they admitted, Middletown, New Haven and Bridgeport were visited. They refused to state as to whether undue influence was brought to bear upon them to have them leave home.
 As a result of their revelations to the police. it is expected that there will be a much stricter censorship and rigid inquiry into alleged con- ditions existing at public dances. The 2irls claimed that they acted improp- crly at a dance in Carpenters hall on Church street and that it was very easy to do about as one pleased. The stories told arc being investigated by .he police and, today, it is intimated to use every effort in enforcing regu- lations relative to proper conduct, type of dances and conduct of couples in rooms leading off of the dance hall proper.
 Arrest of the girls followed a com nlaint of Hilda Johnson, sister of Tillie, who feared that the latter was in danger of falling into ways of vice.

ATTEMPTS TO STOP
 SPEEDY FIRE AUTO
Charles Lawrence Discovers It
 Just Can't Be Done

Struck on the head by the fender No. l from headquarters as it was speeding along Park street early yes terday morning in response to false alarm from Box 22 at Kelsey and F'lirview streets. Charles Law renee, colored, was tossed to one side and suffered only a, scalp wound. The iaceration, superficial in nature, was dressed at police headquarters by pr. J. l.. Kelly and Lawrence was locked up for safe keeping over night. He was released yesterday.
 With Capt. George Hoffman at the wheel, the big motor engine was mak- ing excellent speed when Lawrence was seen walking towards the ap- preaching apparatus from consider able distance, apparently paying little attention to the apparatus. Supposing 1t to be a callman responding to the alarm or that the pedestrian would get out of the way. as he had plenty of time. there was no decrease in speed When it became apparent that Lawrence did not intend to get cut of the way, the brakes were ap piled but the distance was too short and he was thrown to one side.
 Bremen assisted him to his feet and notified Dr. Kelly and police Headquarters. Lawrence's only com- ment was that he "got some bump all right" He did not appear to req lize his narrow escape from serious injury.
 Chief k. M. Dame and members of Engine Companies 1, and with Hook & Ladder Co. No. 1 were able to find anything to identify the per- son responsible for the alarm. An Investigation is being made. Numer- ous attacks have been made on this ',ox and the glass has frequently been reported as broken.

The energetic reporter arrived at a boarding house apartment in Lees block Saturday night just too late to get the full details of real elope- ment from "Noo York" The young couple, several jumps ahead of an irate papa and two minutes ahead of | the reporter had vanished down the back stairs.

 Saturday afternoon an elderly man, much excited and speaking broken English with a German dialect, visit ed the boarding house and asked for information concerning a couple, the description of which fitted the two newlyweds. He departed, promising g to return when the couple should be at home. Upon their return, how ever, the lady of the house informed them of their strange visitors and de- scribed him.
 Yes, that's pepper all right, screamed the girl
 Gee, we'd better beat it." ex- claimed the man.
 Fitting action to the words the couple hurriedly threw their belong ings into a couple of suit cases and fled down the rear stairs.

CHILDREN HATE
PILLS, CALOMEL
AND CASTOR OIL
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give California Syrup
of Figs"

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the "dose" mother insist
ed on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you
fought against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well
founded. Their tender little 'insides"
are injured by them.
If your child's stomach. liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious california Syrup Of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweeten
the stomach and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child to-
morrow
Ask your druggist for 50-cent
bottle of california Syrup of Figs"
which has full directions for babies,
children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly on each bottle. Beware
of counterfeits sold here. See that it
is made by California Fig Syrup
Company" Refuse any other kind
with contempt.

NOBODY TAKES
ACTION IN CASE
OF MRS. Dewitt
Official Indifference and
Red Tape Keeps Death
Still a Mystery.

The mysterious circumstances en-
shrouding the death of Mrs. Gather
inc A., Dewitt, will not be dispelled as
a result of any activities on the part
Of the police, it is reported today.
They will not ask Coroner John j.
Fhelan and Medical Examiner S. M.
Garlick to investigate the case.
The police hold the view that if any
order is made for an investigation of
the circumstances it should be made
by DR.. w. Lee Weadon, who attend
ed the woman. Mrs. Dewitt died as
result of a cerebral hemorrhage. She
also suffered a fracture of the skull
and of the hip.
Whether the woman was over
come by a stroke of apop1exy and fell
to the sidewalk, suffering her injuries,
or whether the fall fractured her skull
induced the brain hemorrhage will not
be known, without a complete exam
fnation of all witnesses.
The only facts fully known today
to members Of the family, the police
Or friends of the woman, are that
she fell in the street, that she was
taken to police headquarters, removed
from there and died in Galen hos
pital with broken hip and fracture
of tn eskull.

Rising Cost Of Flour
] Basis for Damage Suit

The increase in the price Of flour
was responsible for a suit brought by
Emil Sova, a local baker. against
Ralph J. Miner of the wholesale gro
Gerry firm of Miner, Read & Tullock.
This action had hearing this, morn
ing before Judge Walsh in the civil
court Of common pleas.
Sova claims he had a contract with
the grocers by the terms of which they
were to furnish him with flour at a
certain price, The contract was
agreed upon in 1914. When the war
broke out flour increased in price
from 1878 to $6.15 a barrel whole
sale. Sova claims the defendants re-
fused to furnish him with any more
flour at the price agreed upon. The
grocers say they did not promise any
particular price. Their defense is
that the price was to be subject to
the fluctuations Of the market. The
court reserved decision.
