4OAS LII HllfR the QeIcnQanI, imposed sentence of 30 days each on tho first three counts and 90 days on the charge of resisting an officer a total of 1S0 | days, but suspended execution of the | sentence with the understanding that | | the very next time that Cordier, an old | l offender appears in court there will be | no mercy for him and that the sentence | Imposed Monday will be invoked and | Cordier sent to jail.
 Cordier denied that he had bitten ] Officer Touchette, stating that the
 wound on the policeman's hand was | caused in the struggle during which the |
 officer had twisters on Cordier's wrists. | Judge Geissler asked Cordier if he
 did not feel that he should be sent to l jail in view of his record of disturb
 anceS in Putnam Cordier nonchalantly | told the judge that if the court sent him | to jail the town would have to support 1 his family while he was doing time Cor dier has wife and several children The court showed Cordier consideration on account of his family, but gave him fair warning that another disturbance such as caused his arrest this time
 would result in his being given 8 jail
 sentence regardless of his dependents. Bertrand \. Sylvester. 20. was before
 the court Monday morning charged with
 non-support of his wife and their four
 months old baby. Sylvester has been
 working for several weeks past in the
 mill at Taftville, he said and has been
 receiving s7.35. plus his board. He
 said that i1e had been able to get along
 with his wife's people, with whom he
 had been. making his home before
 lie left Putnam, and that his wife
 would not go elsewhere to live with him.
 Judge Geisser ordered him to pay s
 weekly toward the support of his wife and child A bond Of s2o0, guaranteed by Sylvester's brother, who is employ
 ed in a local mill, was taken by the court to insure that the defendant would carry out his agreement to pay a weekly . sum to his wife and child in accordance
 with the order of the court.
 week from this morning hundreds
 of children of the town of Putnam will go back to their studies for another year. Superintendent William L. Mac 3 donald of Putnam's school system said 5 Monday morning that the schools are ready to reopen. In the meantime the
 days of this week are days without plea sure flor many of the pupils who have not compiled with the vaccination l requirement. or who have only recently complied with it and are now nursing sore arms. All children who are to at
 tend school and who have not been vac
 cinated must submit to it, unless ex-
 cused in writing by a physician, and 7 such exemptions are issued only when l the health of the child is such as to : make vaccination inadvisa ble. -
 Tuesday. morning Of next week L. F. / Battey and Horato Brown will begin the annual enumeration of children of
 school age within the limits of the town of Putnam, It is expected that the work will be carefully and expeditious1y
 carried out, as Mir. Battey9has been an l. enumerator for years and will have the U valuable assistance of MT Brown a careful worker. It is not likely. it was u stated here on Monday, that the emu d meration this year will show mater
 ial increase over the figures for last year, although one never can tell De- : pression in the textile industry during v the past year and the removal of nun ' bers of families from within the limits z of Putnam is expected, however, to show . a material decrease in the total of the
 enumeration as compared with the fig , ures for last year.
 5, When "Carn" COurnoyer. the cyclonic c curve-bender of the Nightingale-Morse : baseball team, stepped into the pitch
 ing box Sunday afternoon, in the game r with the Linwood A. A. nine of Lin- a wood, Mass, it was the forty-third con-
 test he had started in two years. When e that same invincible sphere-twister l. stepped out of the box when the 27th = Linwood batter was sent back to the
 bench, it was the forty-frst win that . 1 the youngster has had credited to his Ii pitching record in a similar period of time. In the two seasons that he has 4 been building up his noteworthy record a as a pitcher in Putnam, Cournoyer has 'i lost only two games. The first was
 last year. and it was the Connecticut
 Mills team of Danielson that put the g. premier blot on his baseball escutcheon h This year he has bowed before defeat ,l once, when the Colonials of Hartford ,r punched a few hits and stole a marct a on the locals.
