 Account

Married on the deferred payment plan, Michael Buczak of SS5 Park street and Katherine Paradoska of the same address set out upon the matrimonial adventure yesterday afternoon with an entire cash capi- tai of exactly one dollar. The couple, armed with a marriage certificate and a dollar bill, appeared yesterday at the office of Justice Of the Peace David L. Nair and asked to be mar ried.

 Buczak is the son of Mir. and Mrs. John Buczak, while the bride is the daughter of Zoza Rusin, It was her second marriage.

Sterling Reported as Wde-Open
 7own; Grand Jury to Take Action
Charge is That No Attempt is Being Made to Enforce
 Prohibition Law in This Conn. Village

Sterling, Conn. May 12 CPl -- A grand jurors court will be held at the town hall here on May 22 at 5 p. m. to hold an inquest, as 1t is termed under the statues, into re- ports that liquor selling is carried on in town without effort being made to stop it or bring alleged offenders to trial.
 This court will be held under sec ton 351 of the revised statutes which provides for inquests by grand jurors in towns of less than 5000 population when they have reason to believe that there have been viola tions of the law. It will be held, 1t is understood, because of the allega- tion that no effort has been made to enforce the prohibition law. The statute was enacted long before the question of sale of liquor and the licensing of saloons became acute.
 The grand jurors who will sit as a court are F. II. Tartro, Samuel Malbourn, Fred F. Marriott, Ben iamin E. Douglas, c. B. Montgomery and E. E. Freeman. They can ask that a justice of the peace preside and under the law he may issue sub poenas, commit for contempt, and

DENIED COMPENSATION
 FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Worker Said He Contract ed Disease in 19
 Weeks

Joseph Yaroska, 8 former coal miner who at the conclusion of 19 weeks work in the plating depart ment of the Stanley Works filed @ claim for total compensation on the ground that he had contracted pull monary tuberculosis in the factory, has been denied compensation by Commissioner Leo J. Noonan.
 The factory's interests at the hear ing were handled by Attorney Saul P. Waskowitz.
 Yaroska went to work at the Stanley Works September 27, 1926 and quit February 27, 1926. He was employed on night shift, working 121z hours per night. In connec- ton with other duties he was re- quired to carry ammonia from the first to the fifth floor once or twice a night, and to mix a cyanide solu- ton for plating. The fumes breath cd in by him during these opera tions, he alleged, caused the illness.
 The commissioner heard the evil dence of three experts on tuberculo- sis who examined working condi- tions at the factory and pronounced them to be productive of very little danger. Evidence of Yaroska's em- ployment in coal mines and of his mode of living were also heard and in the opinion of the commissioner they were responsible for his condi- tion. The type of tuberculosis from which he suffers probably antedated his Stanley Works employment by two years, the finding states.

l2 ID l5 YEARS TERM
 FOR NORWALK WOMAN
29 Year Old Negress Who Killed Two in Seven
 Months Sentenced

Bridgeport, Conn, May 12 GPl- Clara Jones' 29 gear old Norwalk negress who killed two men within seven months, was sentenced to the states prison for from twelve to tit- teen years by Judge John +. Booth in criminal superior court this morning.
 Miss Jones pleaded guilty to charge of manslaughter, having slain Fred Thompson in a Penn broke street flat last March 2S. States Atty. William II. Comlev declared study of all the cIrcum- stances led him 10 decision not to bring the woman before q grand jury for indictment, in that it was considered her crime was not mur- der in any degree. The manslaugh- ter plea was accepted, the states at torney said, in the hope that Judg Booth would seriously consider the propriety of imposing upon Miss Jones the maximum penalty.
 Atty. Robt. G. De Forest, who as public defender has wide experience with the modern type of criminal told Judge Booth Miss Jones has the lowest mental capacity of any per son he has professionally dealt with. When the long prison term was pronounced, the woman did not change expression nor show any sign of emotion.
 Fedelle Mariana, q Portuguese of South Norwalk, said to have been Miss Jones' common law husband, was killed by her on September $, 1925. At the December term of criminal superior court she was given her liberty, authorities being convinced she acted solely in self defense, having suffered a terrific beating at the hands of the drunken Mariana.
 Concerning the death of Thomp- son, whom she killed with a pen- knife, her attorney said the crime was not premeditated and occurred whe nshe was vilely abused by Thompson.

 It is claimed that liquor selling in town has occasioned much talk, and the grand jurors may summon many citizens who may have knowledge of the sale of liquor in places said to be under suspicion or have discussed reports of sales of liquor and the maintenance of places of questiona- hle repute.
 These who have been desirous of grand jurors court claim that such a body sitting in any town under 5000 in population would be able to suppress liquor selling and other forms of law violation. So far as known the grand jurors court has not been invoked previously in liquor selling cases.
