 Whenever I walked on crowded streets I would get dizzy and my nerves were In such a sad state that everything bothered me. My condition became so deplorable that I had to give up work entirely.

YOUTH FREED ON
 GIRLS EXTRACTION
Principal in 'Masher" Case
 Proves He Had "Date"
Especial to the Herald)

Bristol, Oct. 15-John Yacobels, aged IS years. a resident of Plain vile, narrowly escaped conviction on a mashing charge in the city court this morning as the result of testi- mony on the part of Mildred Brown, aged Is of 329 Park street.
 Last evening the Brown girl and her sister, Mrs. Alphonse Turgeon Of Main street. were watching the parade incident to the merchants fall opening when they were ad- dressed by Yacobels. Mrs. Turgeon who had never seen the youth be- fore, instructed him to go his way but he insisted on speaking to Mh- dred. Mrs. Turgeon then pushed him aside and with her sister pro- ceeded to the police station. Yaco- bels accompanied them and there a complaint was lodged against him.
 He was held for court this morn ing and it was at the first session that the testimony was offered to the court by Mildred who stated that she had never seen the boy prior to last night. Yacobels however, through his attorney, Edward L.. Quinlan, presented Joseph Pestillo. also of Plainvile, to say that he had met the girl only the night before. This was refuted by both Mrs. Tur- geon and Mildred who stated that the girl had not left her home at all Wednesday after her arrival there at 6:30 o'clock. They offered to produce witnesses and court was adjourned until II a. m. to permit them to do so.
 At the second session, another sister, Mrs. Clara Dean of Main street and a brother, Arthur Brown, verified the statement of the two sisters. The defendant however. in sisted that he had met the girl the previous night and at that time had made an engagement with her for last evening. The Brown girl was then put back on the stand and In reply to questions of Attorney Quin- Ian, stated that she wished to change her testimony at the earlier hearing. She then admitted having met the youth but claimed 1t was Tuesday night instead of Wednes- day. Judge Malone said that even after the first hearing he thought that the evidence was not sufficient | to have found Yacobels guilty and the second hearing simply strength ened his earlier decision. He also intimated that he had absolutely no patience with young man who en- deavored to approach girls on the street but felt that in the case this morning there was no grounds for the charge on which the young man was held.

'PIG WOMAN" COMPLAINS
Witness in Hall-Mills Case Says That Her Stock is Being Poisoned Be- cause of Her Testimony.

Somerville, N. J., Oct. Is P-
 Poisoned pigs and chickens. and financial reyerses resulting in the
 sale of all but 19 acres of her 63- acre farm, are part Of the lot visited on Mrs. Jane Gibson since she be- came the widely-heralded pig woman" and star witness for the state in the Hall-Mills murder case, she complained to Inspector John Underwood today.
 The picturesque farmer woman, who was riding her mule near the Phillips farm when Rev. Edward W. Hall and his sweetheart, Mrs. Eleanor Mills. were slain September 14. 1922, told the inspector that 73 of her pigs and half of her chickens had been killed, and that Dr. Lob lein, a veterinarian, ascribed their end to poisoning.
 Mrs. Gibson declared the banks had refused to lend her money, pre- sumably because of her accusations against some of the four defendants now awaiting trial next month for murder.
 AS a result of the banks attitude she has had to sell A acres from the farm, she avowed.

BATTERIES GREAT
 PROBLEM OF RADIO
Their Substitution Has Long
 Been Sought

Chicago, Oct. IS P>-A source Of ever-willing but rather touchy pow CT supply for radio receivers has finally been conquered by engin- eers. This power, available in near ly every household through the al- ternating current lines, offered many obstacles before 1t finally was put to work to replace A, B, and c batteries.
 Alternating current, when cut into a receiver in the raw state drowns out all sound because of the loud ripple generated by the rapid varia- tions from positive to negative. To overcome these difficulties, the house lighting supply first is chang ed into direct current and then passed through a filter that deliv- CTS an output which contains no disturbing qualities.
 "B" Battery Eliminated
 The first step in the use of "A. C." brought the development Of the E battery eliminator. It consists of a current changing device and a filter made up Of choke coils and large condensers. This filter is absolutely necessary because after the A. (. Is changed to direct current the ripple still is present.
 Further advances In the B battery eliminator, which is correctly known as power pack" came with the designing of improved rectifying or current changing tubes and better chemical rectifers. The power pack is intended to deliver a high voltage at low amperage.
 v Now Dispense With "A"
 Replacement of the storage bat tery or dry cell supply for lighting receiver tubes offered a somewhat different problem. This battery de- livers a current of comparatively high amperage but low voltage. This difficulty has been overcome, and "A" eliminators for use with five volt tubes are beginning to appear The furnishing of the filament cur rent for the three volt dry CeIl IuDS' was much easier because the B. pow CT pack with a few changes can bt made to furnish the lighting current The necessary c. Battery current I: provided through either the A or I device, depending upon the type oi tubes used.
 Previous to the appearance of tht A eliminator. storage battery opera tion through a slow rate charger gained much favor. This "trickle' charger was intended to replace the faster charger, remaining connected to the battery and house lighting lines at all times. These combina tions provide compact unit tha requires but little care and gives steady filament current.

plumber. He wanted to know, too, whether the work he was doing was not correctly done, but Judge Alling excluded the question and told Mitchell the questions to be decided are whether a permit had been is sued for the work and whether Mitchell was a, licensed plumber.
 After court, Building Inspector Rutherford said the ordinance un- der which the prosecution was brought is in the old code, the new code not having been adopted,
 Mitchell called at the office Of Plumbing Inspector Tormay after the court session and after d lengthy discussion was granted a renewal of his license which ex- pired several months ago.
 Inspector Tormay at first insist ed that Mitchell go before the building commission for renewal, but the plumber insisted it was his right to have the license since he has passed an examination and was previously licensed. He granted the power of the commission to revoke his license at later date. After conference with Chief In spector A. N, Rutherford, the li- cense was issued. Mitchell was in- formed he will be held liable for permit fee for the job done without city certificate.
 Judge filings criticism of the building ordinance for alleged in defniitenes todty will result in re- view before the building commls- sion Of the code which has been in effect but three months.
 Chief Inspector Rutherford. who was one of the witnesses in a prose- cution brought by the building de- partment, said this afternoon he will formally report the condition to his board and ask for instructions.

DON'T KILL MAD
 DOGS, PULLEN
May Be Means Of Saving Life,
 fl Animal Lives

If a person is bitten by ,'os
 thought to have been mad. it is 2
 serious mistake to kill the dog. ac.
 cording to Dr. R. w. Pullen, su-
 perintendent of health, who spoke to the Rotary club today on health
 conditions in general.
 Dr. Pullen explained that nc
 actual case of rabies has ever
 been known to recover. Once a
 person contracts rabies, it is sure
 death. The only way in which a | physician can ascertain if a dog
 was mad and know how to treat the patient so as to prevent rabies, is to have the live animal placed under observation and it's brain, uninjured. examined. If the dog is shot or clubbed to death, all proof of rabies is destroyed.
 If you know anyone who is pit ten by a dog, supposed to be mad. for heavens sake don't let the dog be killed" he said.
 The physician said there is a marked increase in the coopera- ton between parents and physi- clans and the health department in the matter of reporting prevent able diseases. He said in minor communicable or preyentable d.s- eases such as measles, chicken pox or whooping cough the parent is required by law to report them to the health board if no physician is called in. If there is a physician he Is required to file a report.
 In case of diphtheria, he said, it is the same as smallpox. There is no reason for anyone having either. Anti-toxin will absolutely cure diphtheria if given within the first "A hours. The percentage Of deaths increases hourly between the onset of the disease and the time anti-toxin is administered after the first A hours have pass ed."
 Dr. Pullen said tuberculosis treat ment does not cure in the sense that it eradicates the disease and re- stores the dead tissue. It stops or arrests the disease and throws a wall of fibre around the destroyed lung, thus stopping progress of the di- sease.
 In one year thre sanitary inspec- tors made 19,S53 visits he said. Soda fountains, restaurants and stores are inspected every day. Each inspector makes 22 calls a day and if conditions requiring improvement are not rectified, prosecution in- evitably follows.
 Of the milk sold in the city, 99 l per cent is either pasteurized or comes from tuberculin tested cows | All dairies in the city are visited each month and milk is analysed in the department laboratory. Pas while it kills disease i germs, does not alter the food value of the milk, he explained.
 The health superintendent does not see any need for New Britain to have milk in grades A, B, c, etc. There are only two kinds or milk in this city. and only one kind Is sold" he said. One kind is that which is fit to drink, and the other sn't."
