 The docket is one of the lightest in sev- eral years, there being only 2 small number of cases and none involving cap ital or major crimes. The only eases of importance are the cloth theft cases from Norwich and vicinity, numbering r. The arrests were the result of a roundup by state, city and railroad de teetives following the wholesale theft of cloth from mills in and around Nor wich.
 Because State Attorney Hadlai A. Hull, one of the attorneys for the ap- pellants, wfl be occupied al the Septem- Der term of the criminal superior court in Norwich the hearing on the appeal of the heirs of the Bentley estate, from the account of Attorney John C.

WINDHAM COUNTY LEADS
 IN TUBERCULIN TESTING

pr George F. Corwin of Hartford, the deputy cattle commissioner. has re- ceived a, letter from William s. Warren the secretary of the Windham County Holstein-Friesan association, in which he suggests that the cattle commission CTS department should clean up from tuberculosis a county or a district at a time. MT. Warren says that Windham county is doing more tubereu4in testing and is showing more interest in the work of eradicating tuberculosis from cattle than any other county in the state.
 In his reply pr. Cerwin eommends Windham county for the work it is doing and assured his correspondent that his suggestions would receive every eonsid- eratioH: He also informed MT. Warren that every facility which the state con trolied would be at the service of his associates for the eradication of tuber- culosis from cattle. He congratulated the association and Windham county on having the first area In Connecticut where cattle are free from tuberculosis.
 In conversation pr. Corwin said that ther ewas a great deal of activity among owners of herds throughout the state to stamp out tuberculosis in cattle The liberal appropriation of S148,0oO made bv the general assembly at the last session for the testing of herds and the conpen- satfng of owners for condemned animals has given an impetus to the movement for the eradication of tuberculosis. The state is assisted by the federal govern ment which pays one-t1frd of the diff ference between theamount paid the own CT and the salvage. The maximum amount paid for pure bred cattle con demned is S125 and for graded cattle $10o per head. The average amount le considerably less than either sum.

PLASTER RIDING"

In various parts of Bohemia, non the principal state of the new Czech oslovak republic, a curious old GUS tom prevails, that of Easter Rid ing. On each Easter day at 1 o'clock in the morning, the riders assemble dressed in black and carrying crosses flags and other emblems. From Schon- wold they proceed on three-hours ride to Kuhn, where they attend service. The priest, after sermon wherein he refers to the horse as Q symbol of power, bestows his benediction or the animals and their riders. This done, the riders visit the neighboring castles, where they receive hospital iIy, subsequently, making their way homeward, escorted by a band and a large crowd.
