ZEBRIS ESTATE SETTLED.
Waterbury Man Cannot Collect on
$4,000 Claim Commissioners Rule.

Harry P. Roche and Albert A.
Greenberg local lawyers assigned as
commissioners on the estate Of the
late Joseph Zebris, the Lithuanian
priest who was murdered several
years ago, have filed their report set
thing claims of about $4,000 that
we're presented against the estate,
which was worth only about half Of
that amount. The final decision Of the
commissioners allows the payment Of
only about $1,000, the others being
disallowed. The J. M. Curtin Co, Of
this city, which had charge of Father
Zebris' funeral, is allowed to collect
for the costs of burial.
Among the other claimants against
the estate were numerous people and
business firms who claimed that they
had loaned cash and given credit to
the priest, who had not settled with
them at the time of his death. These
were practically all thrown out, as
sufficient proof was lacking. Of these,
the largest claim was by John Penikas,,
of Waterbury, who claimed to have
loaned the priest about $4,000. The
entire claim was thrown out. 1t is
likely that an appeal will be taken.

Influence Precautions.

CAT the request OF officials OF
the Red Cross the following
Spanish influenza precautions
are reprinted from circular fur
nished by +. G.. Pernoud medical
advisor, Southwestern Division
of the American Red Cross So
ciety).
Keep in mind that, like most
contagious diseases. influenza IS
spread by contact, that is, by the
transfer OF the poison from one
person to another. 1t is spread
by sneezing, coughing and spit
ting, at which times the discharge
from the nose and throat are
scattered in the air.
Avoid crowds as much as pos
sible, including moving picture
places, theaters and other assem-
bly, halls. When feasible avoid
crowded street cars.
When sneezing or coughing,
place your handkerchief before
your nose and mouth.
Make sure that YOU are proper
~ clothed, in accordance with the
varying changes in temperature,
prevalent at this time OF the year.
Fresh air is always good. Keep
your bed room windows open
and secure as much sleep as pos
sible.
Keep the digestive organs in
good condition.
Drink water freely.
Avoid common drinking cups,
common towels and similar uten-
slS.
Use a mild antiseptic as nose
spray or as mouth gargle, es-
pecially ii your throat is sore or
there is tendency TO sneezing.
Ii YOU have cold use uten-
sis for your personal use eXclu-
sively, or ii you are in contact
with one so affected be careful
not to handle utensils used by
them.
Consult family physician at first
onset OF symptoms suggestive OF
influenza.
Spread this information as
much as possible in newspaper,
moving picture shows, school
houses. churches, etc.
