Interest.
The closing of saloons and the dis
mantling of bars In Southington has
only aggravated the situation here,
according to sights seen about the
town last evening. There were more
DRINKS on the streets last evening
than there have been in long time,
showing that the blind tigers" are
doing tremendous business since the
saloons have stopped. While County
Detective Edward Hickey found 1t
comparatively easy to close the
saloons, the task of roofing out the
| blind tigers will be a much harder
undertaking.

Lehman BAGS TWO
MORE LIQUOR CARS
100 Gallons Of Alcohol Taken
From Roadster This Morning
OFFENDER GETS 80 DAYS
Driving While Drunk, is Given Penalty
in Berlin Court-Baseball Team
Has New Field-Entertains at
Bridge-Other Items of Interest.

State Policeman Walter Lehman,
the "bane of the bootleggers' exist
ence-" captured 100 gallons of alleged
alcohol on the turnpike just north of
the Meriden Line at about 1880
O'Clock this morning.
The officers was on his way home to
Meriden and was looking forward to
a good nights sleep. But apparently
there is no sleep for state policemen
and as he neared the Meriden line
he passed a car bearing New York
markers. The car bore no signs of con-
tanning liquor and anyone else would
have probably not paid any attention
to the car. But the state policeman's
suspicious, which are well known to
lead to something when they are
aroused, came to the fore and the car
was stopped. He had not been wrong.
A search of the car revealed 100 gal
Ions of alcohol stored away in the car
out of sight and out of the way.
The man driving the car gave his
name as Louis Smith of 81 1-2 East
Seventh street, New York city. He
said he was 20 years of age. The man
riding in the car with the driver said
he was John Murphy, 81, of 16G
Broad street, Providence, Rhode
Island. Smith said he was clerk. Ac-
cording to the story of the men they
were bound for Boston, having come
up from New York. The car seized
was of the roadster type.
The men will be tried in the Ber-
lin town court, but were taken to the
Meriden Jail this morning for safe
keeping awaiting arraignment. as the
Meriden jail was nearer. They will be
brought up for trial in the Berlin
court this evening.

Esperanto Fails to Meet

Geneva, Aug. 2.-Esperanto has
failed to meet the approval of the
commission Of international coopera-

opinion on the question by the as
sembIy of the League of Nations. The

ton, are coming in very slowly ac-
cording to a report from the chair
man of the general committee given
out this morning. The sum total OF
| the returns to date Is a little over
$500. The members of the commit
tee are not pessmistic over this show
ing, however, because they feel that
the canvassers have not covered their
territory thoroughly.
The total number of members en-
rolled thus far is 400 and many more
who have been away on vacations are
expected to be enrolled in the very
near future. A number of the people
in the town have refused, according to
the report, because they have felt that
they are conscientiously not in favor
of the move, and in other cases, the
canvassers have not explained the
movement thoroughly. No large do
nations have been received yet,
though it is expected that some Of the
residents will give more than dollar
for their membership.
The committee explained this morn
ing that some OF the canvassers had
not reported to their captains and
some of the captains had not reported
to the committee up to the present
time, and for that reason, the COM
mittee wishes to request the team cap
tains to make a complete report of
their activities UP to date, by the end
of the present week. Hopes are ex-
pressed that the drive will be a sue
cess, because If 1t is not, the Plainville
must dispense with the services of a
visiting nurse.

Notre Dame Princeton Leader
: Among Intersecti0nal
Clashes

New York, Oct. 2O.-Football comes
into it's own today.
Athletic fandom, it's attention no
longer claimed by the worlds series,
now turns to the colleges for its
thrills and finds awaiting it. most
promising list of gridiron engage
ments. The list includes several
battles involving powerful intersec-
tional foes, others bringing together
eastern football rivals of equal size
and strength, and still more sending
brilliant and determined small col
lege elevens against larger, bat pos
sibly less we'll prepared university
teams.
The big intersectional game and
probably the most largely attended
of the day will be that at Princeton,
N. j.; where the Princeton tiger,
which went unconquered last season,
meets Knute Rockne's brilliant Notre
Dame eleven, recent victor over West
Point. Notre Dame is reported the
favorite by reason of its army
triumph last Saturday and also be-
cause Coach Roper of the Tigers has
been forced to make several shifts in
his lineup owing to injuries, ills or
inefficiency.
Important also to the football pub
lie are the contests involving Cornell
and Colgate at Ithaca, N. "; Penn

College, Pa; Pennsylvania and Col
umbia at Philadelphia. Syracuse ane
Pittsburgh at the Yankee Stadium
and two intersectional clashes, ont
between Army and Alabama Poly, a

Georgia Tech and Georgetown, at At

prcssive Holy Cross against Harvard
makes their game one of promise
and Vermont's 1922 defeat of Dart
mouth lends to their Burlington
clash an added note of interest.
