 Sam Hook of Berlin offered his own idea in tho town court last night As a solution of the trouble that has brought him into court 1s times in the past. He suggested 70 Judge c. c. Grisw old that he DO given a suspended jail sentence and be allowed to leave town. This was readily agreed to by the court. as no number of jail sentences seemed to have had any effect on the mai.
 Sam is all right when he is sober but he is very seldom that way. his wife says. It was with the consent of the family that he was allowed to leave town. According to Mrs Hook Sam never works and Is al- ways spending money on booze" and never on the children. Mrs. Hook works in a New Britain fac tory and is at work every day in the year. Sam Hook is at home in the meantime and entertaining friends on the money that sho brings home each week. she told the court.

 Just to make sure that sam does rot violate his freedom by returning to town, Judge Griswoid senterced him to 1S0 days in jail on the last two counts against him. Sam is quite proud of the fact that he has been arrested 19 times and has spent at least three years in the Hartford county jail.

 The numerous robberies in the past month in Kensington have not yet been solved. sta.e and local DO. lice have been unable to trace any of the men who held up several places in town and escaped with much booty The most serious of the breaks was at perritti's thos store. in Kensington where the thieves escaped with $1.O0o worth of shoes and clothes. These have not been recovered and were by far the most easy to trace, as they all bore distinguishing trademarks.
 With the petition for a policeman on duty each night in Keusington meeting with the favor of the store- keepers and with the residents back. ing the proposition, it is expected that action will be taken on the matter in the near future. There :s almost no opposition to the petition in any district of the town. In view of the past breaks they feel that ac- ton should be taken st once ca .te matter.

Up from the brimy waters Of the
lay has come word that bluefish.
trout and rockfish are running. The
1ish began to appear with the first
touch OF cool weather last week
and old fishermen along the bay say
they win not leave now. no matter
how hot 1t gets.
Rush Then Begins
The fish now in the bay are game
fish ana local anglers can hardly
wait to match their mettle with
Them. Every year when the game
fish appear in the bay there IL q
general rush away from desks and
work benches in Washington.
Government departments report
that the applications for leave this
month are unusually heavy. Pri-
vate business firms are handing
down the same reports.
Disciples Of Isaak Walton are le.
giOn in the District and they have
in recent years selected the Chesa.
peake Bay as their fayorite play
ground.
4 There are scores Of little places
along the bay that depend almost
solely upon the annual influx Of
fishermen from Washington for their
support.
Veterans Waiting
Veteran boatmen along the bay
who have devoted their lives to
studying the habits Of the fish are
overhauling their craft which will
soon carry thousands to the fishing
grounds.
There are many in this city who
win split their vacations to enable
them to 60 to the fishing grounds
bver the week-ends until cold wea-
ther, sets In.
Capt. Robert e. Lee, at Shady
Side, said yesterday that he caught
more than 40 fish in Just q few
hours. Included in the haul, he de-
cIareds were many trout, bluefish
and rockfish.
Hardheads have been rather scarce
In the bay all summer as compared
to past years, and now they are
beginning to leave to escape the
chilly waters.
Hundreds Of Washingtonians own
motor launches and small yachts
which they have anchored near
their favorite fishing grounds in
for the annual rush of
game fish.
Women Follow Lines
An ever increasing number Of
fishermen in recent years
have adopted the practice of taking
their wives along on their fishing
trips. Veteran fishermen scowl at
this practice and predict that If the

Arguments to Open Hearing
in Injunction Case.

Hearing on the injunction suit of
Newton Todd to prevent transfer
of Citizens Gas Company property
to the city under terms of the 1905
contract will be started before Fed
eral Judge Robert G. Baltzell Tues
day.
Preceding the hearing will be ar
guments on various motions and
petitions filed in the case.
Objections to the petition of
Allen G. Williams, 1875 North Drexel
avenue, seeking admission as an in
tervening defendant, were filed in
federal court by counsel for the gas
company trustees.
The objections term Williams
application as frivolous, vexatious
and impairment" It is objected
that Williams, as a citizen can
not assert any rights not already
fully protected by the city, and that
the relief sought is at variance with
issues presented in the main pro-
ceeding.
Williams, in his petition, filed
Sept. 10, asked for appointment of
a receiver for the company and in
junction against expenditure of ap-
proximately 100000 for improve
