Local Men Have Claims

Hartford, Feb. 11.-Assignments were made to-day by the claims com mittee. This afternoon the claim of Deputy Sheriff John L. Gray of Wa terbury was listed for a hearing. He has petitioned for $126 as reim- bursement for expenditures in trans acting state business. The bill was presented rather tardy at the pre- vious legislature and so action was not taken.
 Attorney Frederick c. Bauby has a claim for $4,400. There is com panion claim of $1,500 from Mrs. James Jones of Derby. Both peti- tioners are seeking the return of bonds posted by them three years ago in the case of Gladys McGuire Troiko, who on being found guilty of an illegal operation, released tenn porarily under bonds, left the state and became a fugitive from justice. She was captured in East St. Louis after a nationwide search. She was returned here and has since com- pleted her prison sentence. As the ends of the justice have been served the bondsmen desire the return of their money. This hearing will be held next Wednesday.

Building Erected in 1912
Was Scene of Three
Murder Trials.
By Times Special

By Times Special
LAGRANGE, Ind, May s.-An
eighty nine-year-old barn which
stands on farm east Of the Brighton
schoolhouse was Lagrange county's
first courthouse.
The building was constructed in
1912. Andrew Ellison, lawyer Of the
pioneer days, unwilling to see it dis
mantled when superseded by a new
courthouse, had it torn down and
the timbers moved by bobsled to
the farm where it was reconstruct
ed as a barn.
It is recalled that the courthouse
was the scene of three murder
trials.
In one, Hiram Springer was con-
victed of rnanslaughter in the kill
ing of Jacob Beam during a dance
brawl. Springer was sentenced to
two years in prison. The supreme
court reversed the conviction, but
Springer escaped a second trial by
enlisting in the Union army for
service in Civil war.
In 1870 Stephen jerks was con-
victed of the murder of George
Mallow and given a life term in
prison. However, the supreme court
reversed the conviction. In the
meantime jerks became a fugitive
and was not captured until seven
years later. He was again convicted
and given a life sentence. He died
in prison.
Chauncey Garnes was given a life
sentence in 1871 for the Staying of
his sweetheart, Addie Dwight, a
school teacher.

Monkey Business Costs
-EggS-actly Thai

This one came down this week
after spending the winter in
tree.
But it came down often during
the winter. In fact, Mrs. Helen
Ostrander invoiced Redden for
$3.50 because the monkey came
down into a chicken run at her
home. Every time it left it took
a flock Of feathers for its nest
and two or three eggs. The
monkey quite lost its taste for
bananas.
Redden paid the $3.50 and
gave the prodigal to Robert Earl.
Redden explained that once an
egg eater, always an egg eater.
Times are bad and he can't pro-
vide eggs for the monkeys.
