Pen-Knife Used In Filtration Case

George Boyce, ,23, six-feet- three inches bulky negro, found out early this morning that some women don't like the Tarxan type. In fact, Peggy Scott, 90, colOred, of 23S Abbott avenue, liked BOyce 50 little that she used . pen-knife when he began . one-sided filtration.
 Boyce had been imbibing . bit, and when he saw Peggy sitting In an Abbott avenue res- taurant, he decided to sit next tO her.
 "Go 'way", warned Peggy but Boyce didn't listen.
 When another warning failed to have any effect, Peggy whip ped out . penknife, and carved . little patch out of Boyce's shoulder. Immediately, she, as they say of Abbott avenue, scrammed.
 Boyce was arrested by Patrol. man Anthony Mole for intOxica- ton and taken to St. Mary's hospital for treatment of his minor wound. Patrolman Jack Winston arrested Peggy shortly after the stabbing.
 In city court this morning, Judge Edward MascolO warned BOyce about one sided Girtations, and told Peggy that good little girls didn't use knives. He placed the two on probation for six months, and gave them sus- pended jail sentences.

colt Balestier, Vermont novelist, and his sister Caroline went to Lotl- don. Soon after entering the pub- fishing field Balestier met Kipling, fresh from India with his barrack- room ballads. They became fast friends and, collaborating, wrote 'The Naulahka," 8 novel, in six weeks.
 Met With Caroline
 Kipling met Caroline at the Bal estier home, fell in love with her, and married her in 1892. Homesick, Mrs. Kipling induced her husband to go to Vermont for their honey moon.
 The writer soon discovered that he shared his wife's love for Ver- mont. They bought land here and built "Naulahka." A two-story wooden dwelling, all rooms of which are on the east side, leading of halls that run the length of the building.
 It was in his American home that several masterpieces came from Kipling's prolific pen, includ- ing "The Jungle Books" many of the poems in "Seven Seas, and Captain Courageous", the material for which Kipling gathered at the famed MassachusettS fishing port of Gloucester.
 Magnet For Literary Men
 "Naulahka" became Q magnet for literary giants of the day, and Kip- ling's worldwide popularity pro. duced 50 much fan mail that finally in desperation, he arranged with the federal government to establish a personal postofiice for him. This little office, known as '"The Waite, was situated within stone's throw of his residence.
 Two daughters, Elsie and Jo- sephine, were born to the Kiplings while they lived here.
 Although 40 years have elapsed since the Kiplings returned to Eng land, Dummerston folk never have lost their neighborly interest in them.
 In slate-colored "Naulahka" live Cabot Holbrook, apple-grower, his wife and three children. Of the many Kipling mementos that the house contains, Holbrook treasures most highly an antique desk at which the author worked. Each summer brings hundreds of tourists to "Naulahka", but Holbrook, who inherited the house from his father, bars all visitors.
 A brother -in- Jaw of Kipling, Beatty Balestier, elderly. retired gentleman farmer, still lives here.

 He died in 10 minutes. Dr. A. E. : Webb Johnson had barely time to call Mrs. Kipling and Mrs. Bam- bridge, who had left the room for a few minutes. Kipling did not speak, but he seemed to recognize them.
 The night porter at the entrance to the hospital was advised by tele- phone. He informed waiting news pay,er men and there was rush through the corridors to telephones.

 l Born In Bombay
 Kipling was born in Bombay in { IO65. His father, director of the Lahore Museum, was an artist. Kip ling was educated at the United , Services College in England, and but for weak eyes would have entered : the army. Instead he returned to India and became known through out the world as man who had put the army on paper, and had cut in to the inner spirit of the officers and men and their women. India he loved, and he made 1t possible for Britons at home to re- alize what 1t was. He was hardly more than boy before he wrote some Of the best known works--departmental ditties in 1886, Plain Tales From the Hills in 1887, he wrote his tragic novel, The Light That Failed at 25.
 On an American tour in the early 'nineties he met his wife. They married in 1892. They came to Eng land, to remain.
 Rural Hamlet Mourn . Dummerston, Vt., Jan. l8-U.P0 s--Nestled in the Vermont Hills, this rural hamlet to-day mourned the passing of Rudyard Kipling per- haps more deeply than anywhere in :, America, for 1t was here that the British bard penned some of his most famous works.
 For four years-l8o2 to 18o6-the poet-novelist and his Vermont bride lived in Dummerston, near the Brattleboro town line, in an ex- Eraordinary house which they built and named "Naulahka" after one of Kiplings books.
 The house, still known by it's or- iginal name, may yet be seen on a picturesque hillside whose vista in- cludes the broad sweep of the Con- necticut valley to the southeast, and New Hampshire's Slate-blue Mount Monadnock far to the east.

 with a crew of four abroad, rode out the gale outside the harbor be- cause ice prevented Q landing.
 Eight inches of snow fell at New ark, Ohio, the heaviest fall in that section in many years.
 Both east and west airplanes were grounded at Chicago. Plane service continued between Cleveland and Newark, N. J., during the night but was expected to stop when the full fury of the storm hits that area.
 A bitter cold wave was expected to follow the storm across the coun- try. Forecaster J. R. Lloyd in Chi- cago predicted zero temperatures by Sunday morning.
 Waterbury Prepares
 Waterbury was hit shortly before 9 o'clock this morning by Q snow storm which weather forecmasters predicted would be the heaviest fall SO far this winter. Preparedness became the word at the ofiices of the local transportation companies and the street department as the fast falling snow quickly covered the ground and continued to in- crease in depth. Preceded by a slight mist which instantly froze on sidewalks and the highways, the storm caused an immediate slow-up in traffic as well as business in the stores.
 Superintendent of Streets Thomas J. Fleming this morning had fleet of thirty trucks at his command ready to send out as soon as the snow became a real impeachment to traffic. He was also ready with Q crew of some 300 men.
 Conn. Co. Is Ready
 Superintendent Charles Chapman of the Waterbury branch of the Connecticut company, at o:3O o'clock this morning, had six blows and track sweeping machines ready to swing into action and before noon had placed the sweepers in action to keep the few remaining trolley tracks of the city in clear condition.
 As the slight mist, which began falling at 7:30 o'clock this morn- ing, froze on the highways, Super intendent of Streets Fleming had trucks with crews out sanding hilly thoroughfares.
 Inter.city bus travel was slowed up somewhat by the snow. The Short Line reported its service be- tween here and Bridgeport up to schedule. The Southern New Eng land company busses coming in from the north were delayed, how eyer. The snow storm hit the Hart ford and Winsted area long before 1t struck Waterbury, according to early reports, and slowed up busses coming into the city from that d. rection.
 Predicting Blizzard
 Weathermen for the past two days have heen predicting a blizzard for this section of the country and as the snow began falling this morning shortly before 9 o'clock 1t was feared that their predictions were about to come true. The ad- vance warnings, however, served to get the public utility and street de- partment officials prepared so that 1t was no surprise to the bus and trolley companies and the highway officials. The state highway de- partment also had q fleet of blows working on all main roads before noon today.
 Trafilc was decidedly lessened and travel on trolieys and busses was approximately increased as auto owners left their vehicles at home.

understood the states plans provide for taking q large slice off one part of the land. It is not known wheth- CT or not any portion of the church building, proper, will be cut through in the course of the building of the new section of highway.
 The move of the highway depart ment Is of interest locally due to the belief existing for some time that the Connecticut company would eventually abolish its trolley tracks on the Waterbury -Watertown line. The city of Waterbury, 1t is known. has long been seeking to in- duce the Connecticut company to use buses on the line instead of the present trolleys. Apparently the trolley concern plans to keep the trolleys in service judging from the activities of the highway depart ment.

 Death Threats To Hoffman
 But greatest interest centered on developments in the drive of Hoff- man-who has received half a dozen death threats as well as many let- ters of praise-to reopen every doubtful phase of the crime Of the century in an effort to bring about a complete solution or a confession.
 HofYman's chief but distant goal was to discover whether persons other than Hauptmann were in- volved. It was understood that he had ordered new search for sus- poets, especially the mysterious man known as John" who spoke with Q Scandinavian" accent during the ransom negotiations and who was Identified as Hauptmann.
 The new investigation was ex- pected to center first along three lines which may require 50 much time that. according to one source. additional reprieves will be granted. assuring Hauptmann life until sum- mer.
 Three Lines To Probe
 1-An effort to prove that John was an accomplice of the kidnaper. When Dr. J. F. (Jafsie) Condon and Col. Charles A. Lindbergh paid the ransom money, Condon talked to John. Lindbergh saw man out- side the cemetery rendezvous who appeared to be a lookout and who dropped a handkerchief on the street. Whether this man was the same one who took the ransom money or an aide or a mere by- stander has remained fin doubt.
 "A new check on the mysterious J. J. Faulkner, who turned in a large amount of gold notes at Q New York bank which, on the same day, discovered 8 batch of ransom money in its tills. The amount of ransom money was within ten dollars of the amount Faulkner turned in, but there has never been conclusive proof that he handed in the notes The name apparently was a fake. 3--A recheck on the stories of several witnesses, possibly including Jafsie to clear up several reported contradictions or discrepancies. Parker Btlil At It
 Tn addition, Ellis Parker, the country detective of Mount Holly. N. J. continued his investigation. He told the United Press that he had not seen or talked to the governor for ten days but that his interest continued and that he was available at any moment Hoffman wants him.
 The betting odds were 10000 to one that no conclusive new evidence would be found, but it has been sug. gested to the governor that. If his inquiry creates . doubt as to solu- ton of the case. Hauptmann's gefiS terce might be commuted t0 life irn- prisonment. The board of perdons would have to be convinced that there still was hope that the future would produce new developments.
