RELEASED BUT |S
 ARRESTED AGAIN
Dr. Lyman, Forger, Expects
 Liberation However

Baltimore, Oct. 9.-Five miHutes after he had been released from the Maryland penitentiary here today, Dr. John Grant Lyman, who has been chased nearly all over the globe by police at different times in his career. was on his way to New Work in custody of a detective to answer to charges of passing worth less checks.
 Sentenced to prison for ten years in 1918, for forgery, Lyman's term had been reduced to five years by Governor Ritchie in considera- ton of his age and his good record in prison.
 Lyman did not seem worried over his rearrest. He said his wife and influential friends had had charges against him in Syracuse and other cites dropped, and he seemed con- fident that the New York case would be ouashed.
 Lyman, who was New York stock broker and former member of the New York stock exchange. was a medical college graduate, and he also took a post graduate course in Germany.
 He is said to have cleaned up sS0o,000 by stock promotion schemes in the west. Ills headquar- ters were at Los Angeles, where he operated as the Panama Develop ment company. He was indicted for fraud, arrested and escaped. Postal inspectors rearrested him as he was about to board a steamer for Ja- ran. He was sentenced to IS months in prison. He tried to es- cape, but broke his leg. While in the hospital he again escaped, but was recaptured.

Methodist Church - Real Estate
 DeaIs--Other Items of Interest.
 Berlin was deprived of the new concrete road from the New Brit ain line to the Junction of Farming ton avenue and the turnpike be- cause New Britain urged the build- ing of the cement road running through Corbin's corner to Elm wood, according to A. P. Marsh of New Britain, speaking at meeting of the Mems Bible class of Berlin last night at the community house.
 The meeting was regarded as one of the most interesting and enthu- siastic ever held.
 Berlin was deprived of the new concrete road, commonly called the Stevens Highway" because of the great interest taken in the project by Claude W. Stevens, prominent Kensington republican, because of the fact that New Britain visited the authorities in Hartford and asked that the other road be built. ac- cording to MT. Marsh.
 He said, among other things, that the only way to get roads is to go to the highway department and in- slst that they be put in. He said that if a delegation of prominent residents appears before the high way department, such & step is bound to carry weight.
 There was a large attendance at the meeting, which was somewhat of an experiment in the Father and Son" idea. A we'll known sleight of hand artist entertained with new and completely mystifying tricks. which kept the audience in- terested an hour.
 A large number of young men turned out to the meeting. accom- panying their dads" to the affair. All expressed enthusiasm and it is expected that the membership of the association will be boosted con- slderably through the idea of 'Fath- CT and Son" meetings.
 St00 Fire Loss.
 Fire in a woodbox at the Hooker farm house in Kensington yesterday afternoon resulted in the summon ing of the New Britain department and damage amounting to about s10O.
 The fire started in the woodbox in the kitchen and the New Britain chief was notified. He dispatched Engine Go. No ? to the place and the fire was extinguished. but the kitchen was damaged considerably. The wainscoting around the room was badly charred and there was other damage from the fire.
