LOCAL MAN HELD
 BY ALBANY POLICE
Charles F. Nelson Implicated in the Loss of Several Hundred Dollars
 Worth of Property.

The Albany police are holding a man who gives his name as Charles Calvin, his age 35 and his occupation a leather worker, on a theft charge arising out of the investigation by the detective bureau of that department but the authorities feel confident that his name is not Calvin but that he is Charles P. Nelson of this city.
 In his arrest, the police of Albany believe that they have apprehended one who can throw some light on the disappearance recently of hundreds of dollars worth of personal effects from automobiles parked at Chapel street near the side of the Teneyck hotel. Nelson aroused the suspicious of the police by his manners near the hotel and when arraigned as vagrant did not satisfy the judge as to the reasons for his being there. He was sentenc- ed to jail and while on the way was searched with the result that a pawn ticket issued to Charles P. Nelson of New Britain was found on his person. On the way to the station house he attempted to throw a card case into a sewer, but the case was caught by a policeman.

FORMER SHERIFF ADMITS
HE HAS KILLED HUNDREDS
Interesting Statement by Man Who
Has Tested Modern and Effective
Methods of Destruction.

Formerly a sheriff of his native
county, a man now living in South
Georgia declares that on numerous
occasions he has killed mosquitoes by
the hundreds in his home merely by
spraying Torment into the air. Tor,
ment kills mosquitoes instantly, even
while they are on the wing. 1t has
no offensive odor, does not stain
clothing nor furniture and is harmless
to human beings. Keep your home
clear of the misunderstanding mos
quito and you will be healthier and
happier. Torment is admitted to be
the greatest insecticide ever discoY-
cred. 1t annihilates flies as well as
mosquitoes. A bottle of Torment, in
spray, 25c, at your druggists.
