I'VE are in bad at the present time,
that's what mean to infer" conelud-
ed Alderman John G. Johnson at the
meeting of the common council, Tues
day evening, after he had probed into
the matter of the disgraceful affair on
Main street Sunday night and alluded
to present conditions in this city.
Asks About Arrests
Alderman Johnson arrived late and
Just before he entered the chamber
an ordinance had been passed relative
to the sale and use of explosives on the
Fourth of July. Just before the meet
ing adjourned Alderman Johnson al
luded to the passing of this ordinance
and asked one or two questions. He
then said that he had been out of town
all day and would like to know if any
of the participants of the disgrace
ful' affair had been arraigned in court
that morning. He turned to Captain
Bulger, who was in the room. and ask
ed the question of him.
Couldn't Distinguish Anyone
Captain Bulger said: mo. it was im-
possible for the men to distinguish any
one in the crowd of $50 or 200 He
said that he had a man locked up for
breaking and entering the Donahue
store and that it was known who rang
in the false alarm of fire. He under
stood that Mrs Bartlett had the names
of some of the crowd and that there
may be something doing in the morn
ing" He said that Monday evening
between 8 and o'clock the situation
again got beyond the control of the
police. Men were firing skyrockets IN
the street. He came down and threat
ened to arrest q man who was selling
fireworks, but the man said he would
not STOP. He considered that the man
made q public nuisance Of his place.
Worst Affair In Fourteen Years
Alderman johnson said there was
some differences of opinion of the at
fair. He questioned the right of men

STOLE 30 BOTTLES
OF REAL BOOZE
Empty Bottle Leads to Arrest
of middle" Stone For
Burglary
Pleads Guilty to Breaking and Enter
ing Donahue's Drug Store Sunday
Night

When Captain John Bulger and two
of his officers saw Amide Durocher,
better known as Middle" Stone, who
works on the Bruce express trucks,
throw an empty gin bottle on the en-
bankment of the railroad company,
Front street, the act solved the mys-
terious break at J. +. Donahue's drug
store, Sunday night. when thirty bot
ties of various kinds of liquors were
stolen. The captain procured the
empty bottle and it was identified by
Mr.. Donahue as one taken from his
store.
The man, who IS 20 years old, WAS
arrested Tuesday morning and taken
to.the police station, where he made
complete confession. He was arraign-
ed in the city court Wednesday morn
ing and pleaded guilty to burglary. He
was held in bond Of $500 for the SUI
perior court.
The defendant told the court that
hard cider in bottles and jugs flowed
freely Sunday night. He drank some
and it made him sick and he went
down toward Connor's blacksmith
shop. 1t was then that he decided to
get the liquor. He knew just where it
was kept for he had seen it while de-
livering freight BE tore out
screen and unlocked window behind
it. The rest was easy.
Mr.. Donahue was asked if he cared
To press the charge against the young
man and he said he did not, as he
thought he was under the influence of
liquor or he wouldn't have done it.
Stone, or Durocher, said he had liv-
ed all of his life in Putnam, and had
never been arrested before. He is
the sole support of his mother and
said that he had himself been under
the doctors care since being discharg-
ed from service.

him had not harmed her, had in fact
penetrated his wife's breast and blood
was still trickling from the wound.
The doctor FASTENED to summon med
ical aid from Willimantic, and DIR. k.
