DIP FORFEITS
 BOND OF $500
 IN COURT TODAY
Trolley Crew EXonerated By Coroner In Case of
 Child's Death.

Only three cases were disposed of in the city court this morning in one of the shortest sessions that has been held in some time.
 Charges of manslaughter against lIotorman Andrew J. Dunn, of 119 Park street, and Conductor Joseph L. Foerch. of 184 Davenport street. were noIIcd. The two men were in charge of the trolley car which struck and killed three-year-oId Freddie Vechi- oIIa, of +37 Logan street, on Sept. Is. The cJroner's finding eXOnerated the trolley crew of all blame for the acci- dent.
 John Jackson, of Boston, who was arrested on Sept. 13, at the local rail. raod station after he had attempted to pick a mans pocket, failed to ap- pear in court htis morning, thereby forfeitiug a bond of $500. At the time of his arrest, Jackson's bond was fix cd at $1.GGO. He failed to get bondsnau for this amount. but when the bail was lowered to $500 suC- ceeded in raising this sum. It is be- lieved that he left Bridgeport some time last week. Jackson has been in trouble in many of the larger cities of the East, according to a report which the Bridgeport police received last Saturday.

AMERICANS NOT ID TAKE PART
 IN PLUME ROW
Conflicting Reports Leave Doubt As To Control
 of City.

London, Sept. 23.-Italy. which was
 given a free hand to handle the prob lem arising out of the seIzIng of Plume by Captain D'Annunzio as a domestic affair, is said in reports current here to have appealed to the Allied Powers
 to take the matter of her hands and send force to Plume to expel the insurgent troops from the city It is claimed Italy has stipulated that if
 such a force is sent to the Adriatic city it must not include Italian units. It is improbable. according to re-
 port that American troops will par ttcipate in such an operation, if 1t is ordered, there being no soldiers avail able for such purpose. American marine contingents now in the Adri-
 atic have not taken part in any activ- ities here, and it is said they will not be called on to do so unless positive instructions come from Washington or ] the Peace Conference in Paris
 Reports from Plume seem to be conflicting. One states that General BadogIiO, Deputy Chief of Staff, who was sent from Rome to deal with the 1 Jugo-Slav delegation in Paris asserts ! ID'Annunizio's forces have extended their zone of occupation, having ad- vanced into JugO-Slavia seven miles on Sunday. II appears. however. the reported blockade of the city is not | particularly effective. it being reported i that . train load of supplies has reached Plume. Another despatch says four more companies of Italian sol
 diers joined Captain D'Annunzio on Saturday and Sunday. Dispatches ! from Trieste declare the commander
 1 of the Trench ships in the harbor has notified Captain DAnnunzio that if
 the stores forming the base of the
 l FrancO-SeTb troops at Plume are
 mo4ested, he will order his ships to
 | open fire on the city.

Hairdresser Says Curly
Side Puffs Must Go

No less an authority than an ex-

the public that the curly side puffs
have no place in the forecasted win
ter fashions.
Now isn't that hard luck with a
cold winter coming on, and the "ear
muffs"' giving way to flat curls or

all at once, to give the fashionable

And false hair is taboo. Those
who have bought bobs and ear ,nuffs
will have to take them back or use
them to stuff sofa cushions. The
idea is to follow the natural line of

meat but like the white elephant Of
Siam, he will leave meat to eat
most anything else. This includes
lettuce, fruits, fresh or otherwise,
bran, eggs, vegetables, mice, pea
nuts, hay, automobile parts, recent
makes preferred and gravel. This
democratic attitude of the goat has
made him solid with all the keepers.
They don't have to bother about
tiresome details when they prepare
his meals. Like China, he takes
what he gets.
More Aristoeratic Menus.
Other animals have whims and
aristocratic notions about feeding.
The monkeys tend very slightly in
this direction. They will consume
vegetables, green goods, eggs, fruit.
onions, milk, carrots, bread-in fact,
nearly everything except meat.
The birds eat in more retail
manner. In this group are included
canaries, parrots, macaws, cocka-
toos and others. These will gen.
orally take care of seed, crackers,
bread, eggs, lettuce, apples and pea
nuts. OF course, certain birds have
their iavorite likes and dislikes to
this schedule.
The deer and buffalo will take
bran, corn and oats. The eagles will
take \ rat, If possible; otherwise
meat Fine grass and oats brings
peace to the rabbits. The wolves
like meat.
The lonely bears In their isolated
pits support local bakeries to the
extent Of four 1oaves of bread \ day.
They also get carrots once In =
while. The pheasants, ducks and
swans require mixed feed, oats and
corn.
The feeding times are 8 in the
morning and 8 in the afternoon.
Most Of the inmates get fed but
once a day. Among the exceptions
to this rule are the eagles, hawks
/ and rabbits and, of course, the goat,
who often finds pleasure in search
