arrest was brought about through
peculiar circumstances.
About six months ago Gutowsl<t de-
serted his wife and three children,
and left the city without telling any
one where he was going. Nothing
was known of his whereabouts until
a month ago when young woman
to whom he made proposal of mar

he was already married. A warrant
was made out for his arrest at that
time. and sent to New Jersey. He,

lei. & III. FACTORY BUILDS
WAITING STATION

The Hart & Hutchinson company
has provided a much needed and a
great comfort for It's employees in the
form of waiting station on the
south side of the trolley tracks which
pass the factory. Since the factory was
started there has been a continual
growth in the number of employees
and many OF them live in this city.
In order to get the New Britain bound
trolley they had to stand and wait
several minutes. If the trolleys were
late it was often a great Inconvenience,
especially in cold and stormy weather.
The new waiting station will provide
room for these people and will be
greatly appreciated by them.

1O-YEAR-OLD BOY HELD
FOR '.PANHANDIJNGo

A 10-year-old boy was arrested this
afternoon by Officer Clarence Lam
phere at the request of Charles B. Nc
Donald, manager Of Fox's theater, for
panhandling patrons of the theater.
For some time it has been the custom
of small boys to stand around the
lobby of the theater and ask patrons
for q penny when they received their
change from the purchase of a ticket.
The boy arrested today evidently was
not satisfied with a penny, but was
grabbing the four cents given in
change when a patron purchased a
ticket. The boy was in line and as
soon as the one in front of him bought
a ticket he would take the money, run
and again fall in line to repeat the
performance.

BULGARIA PLEASED
At ENTENTE FLEET
Arrival Of Ships at CONSTANT
nopIe Causes Profound Delight

Sofia, Bulgaria, Dec. 81 (Corre-
spondence of the Associated Pres. j.
Bulgarian political leaders profess to
be gratified by the entrance of the
Entente fleet into Consta nt1nople and
express the belief that it assures gan
equitable and reasonable solution Of
the interminab BILE question of who shall
control the Straits of the Dardanelles.
This problem has been the constant
nightmare of most of the Balkan
states particularly of Bulgaria, Ru-
mania and Greece. These countries
always have considered the POSSIBLE
itv of Russian occupation Of Constan-
tinopIe to be a serious menace to
their own national existence.
This fear was one of the causes
which led Bulgaria to take sides with
the Central Powers in the war. Later
when Russia bandoned her exclusive
claim to Constantinople, Rumanla
entry into the war on the side OF the
Entente was facilitated.
Political circles in Bulgaria are
profoundly impressed by the g1ddy
rapiditv with which events of fa1
reaching international Importance
now are transpiring. The folly of the
policy pursued by the former King
Ferdinand and his government III
BULGARIA have been brought home In
a striking manner to Bulgarians by
the recent developm ents. The same
feeling is expected to prevail among
the young Turks, who preferred to
trust to Germany rather than Great
Britain and France although, 1t IS
said. these powers and Russia gave
70 the Portea formal declaration
guaranteeing the integrity of Turkey
if she would remain neutral in the
war.
The great mass of the Turks, as
we'll as all other nationalities in Tur
kew are said to be overjoyed to wit
ness the termination of the rule OF
the governing clique in that country
and the success of the Entente pow
ers. They now realize, it is said, that
Germany cared nothing for the condi-
ton of the Turks but was solely con-
cerned with her own commercial and
industrial schemes affecting Turkey
Tho general feeling of tranquility
has succeeded the recent trOublouS
times and all political parties replace
confidence in the ability of the pres
ent democratic ministry of Bulgaria
to extricate the country from its pres
ent condition,
The organization of a society in
Sofia to promote the idea of a. Balkan
confederation is criticized here on
the ground that it is premature.
