DANIELSoN AND PUTNAM NEWS
DANIEISON


 In the town court Monday morning Anthony Sumuluss. owner of what has been known for years as the Daniel Shfppee farm, on the Wauregan road, was given a lesson concerning the Con necticut fish and game laws, and charged for 1t. by Judge W. Fenner Woodward. Sunruluss paid $71 .09, upon which basis of assessment full course of instruction in the particular branch of the law he pursued for the lay would be somewhat expensive.
 Specifically. SuInufuss was chazged win having set fish txaps in Meadow Hawk brook. which runs through his property just a few feet within the soutbern border of the town of KE- hnEiy. There were six counts against him lodged by County Game Warden Harry Battey of East Killingly. Surhufuss pleaded guilty to the second count and was fined $50 and costs. He didn't Ike it a bit and become so obstreperous that Judge Woodward finally had to lecture him a bit and threaten him with commitment to jail unless he addressed himself to the court in such manner as to relieve him from liability for contempt
 Sumuluss' error seems to have been in his belief that he could do what he liked, insofar as setting the traps was concerned. so long as he confined his operations to his own property. and he remarked after his arrest that he could do so in his native land-RusSia.
 The stream where the traps were sci is one of the finest trout brooks in the counfy-a stream that has been posted for years by General J. W. Atwood of Waurcsan. member of the state fist and game commission, through ar ranEements with a former owner of the property now occupied by Sumuluss though General Atwood who has not fshed in the part of the brook where the traps were this year. had nothing to- do with the prosecution of Sumu- luss. The traps were discovered through the watchfulness of Warder Batfey and his assistants, who hay, been inspecting brooks throughout thu county during the entire spring sea son. They kept close watch of thu Meadow Hawk brook and finally pre- sented six counts against Sumuluss Had sumuluss been found guilty ol all of the counts that were fileC aSainst him in the case. he could hav been fined $500 and costs.
