LAD SHOWS MASTER MIND
Danielson Youth. IT, lngeniou1ly
 Plans Opportunity to Steal

A plan concei ed by seventeen-yeai old Adelard Lasnier of Danielson, to afford himself the opportunity to en. ter store in that place and steal, was one of the most ingenious schemes that have come to light in this county and stamps the boy as a master mind in crime The boy was arraigned in the town court of Killingly last Fri day and is being held for the next criminal session of the superior court. This is his second appearance before the court. He pleaded guilty.
 According to the chief of police in Danie son the boy went to store across the street from the one he had planned to enter and asked to use the telephone. He called up the scene of his proposed burglary and inform ed the storekeeper that it was the light and power ~companv talhirg and that on account of trouble with wires the lights would be cut off in n few minutes.
 The youth then gained admission to the cellar of the store and threw off the switch The proprietor had heed ed the warning and had locked up. This gave the young burglar his op- portunity and he cleaned out the cash register of it's nine dollars in change.

WAGE CUT 2 1-21e
 IN EFFECT DEC. 20
Cotton Mill Operatives Get No-
 tice of Pay Reduction
Decrease Was Expeeted.-Employe.
 Felt It Was Bound To Come

All over New England, including Putnam and all other towns in east ern Connecticut where there are large cotton mills, notices were posted in the factories Monday morning inform ing the operatives of substantial cut in wages to go into effect December goth.
 In a good many of the mills the re- duction was specifically stated as 22 + per cent. In other mills following a different policy the amount was not stated, but the same decrease is look ed for. The plan is in accordance with suggestions made at a meeting of cotton manufacturers recently hel5 in Rosten as a part f the scheme of readjustment in this branch of manu- featuring.
 In eastern Connecticut some ten thousand or more operatives are af- fected. In Putnam and the Grosven. ordales it will affect over ten thou sand employees.
 The Gresveaordale Cotton Manu- featuring Company, with large fac tories in Grosvenordale and North Gresvenordale, posted notices Mon- day mornink stating that beginning December goth there would be a wage reduction of 22a per cent. h Put nam, the Nightingale Morse Manufae- turing Company posted notices of a reduction in wages effective the 20th. but TO specific amount was stated. At the office of the company it was said that the cut would probably be the same as in other mills. The Put nam Manufacturing Company is at present shut down. When operations are resumed it is expected that the same wage reduction will be followed. At the Manhasset Manufacturing Company, which is operating only par tially, no notices have yet been post ed
 That the reduction was anticipated l by the employees was evidenced when Patriot representative endeavored to get the feeling of the operatives from conversation overhead in places where the workers congre gate. The sense as gathered from the talk was that the cut had been expected. that the wage earners realized that it had get to come, and that they had rather work for a reduced wage than to have no work at all The cut can hardly be viewed in the light of pleasing Christmas present, but it can be sai l with assurance that the operatives are taking the matter philosophieally and that no labor trouble is expected in this section, where the operatives are net unionized, but are free to think and decide such matters individually.

ALI. AT ONCE

Pat was employed on an engineer ing job a few miles out of the city, and was carried to his work by an ex- press train. which accommodated slowed up near the scene of his la- bors. One morning, however, the train rushed through the cut without reduc- ing speed, and the foreman looked in vain for Pat. At last he saw a much battered Irishman limping back down the line, and called to him
 Hello, Pat Where did you get off"
 Pat turned stiffly, and, waving his hand toward the steep embankment, sighed
 ''Oh, all along herew
