William M. Leo of Chaplin Confesses
to Pomfret BurglaryArrested by
State Policeman' Hurley Burglary
at Alexander's Shop Norwich Tern
- peranco Men Advocate Woman's
Auxiliary.
State Policeman Robert Hurley of
Hartford did a quick and effective
piece of work Mondav in clearing up
the burglary at tha Bradley residence
on pomfret street. Hurley received
word of the break In Hartford Mon
day morning and at 6 o'clock in the
afternoon he came into Putnam with
William M. . Lee. .24, of Chaplin, who
confesses to being guilty of the break.
4 The house entered is one of the
finest on Pomfret street and is known
as the George Lathrop Bradley place.
A window was forced open to gain
entrance and as the place is vacant
during the winter months Lee had
plenty of time to ransack the house,
which he proceeded to do In a thor
ough manner. The work was done
during the early houra of Sunday
morning. Dressers and trunks were
broken open and everything movable
was turned topsy turvy. Candle grease
stains the costly floor coverings In
various rooms. Just what was taken
cannot tie ascertained until the Brad
leys are communicated with, because
Lee was not talkative on the subject.
After ransacking the house another
building on the place known as the
office was visited. The cellar door was
forced open, but a locked door at the
head of the stairs prevented access io
the upper pert of tne building.
Deputy Sheriff George S. Holbrook
of this city accompanied State Police
man Hurley In the search for the bur
glar. Lee, because of certain circum
stances, was believed to know some
thing of the affair and when charged
with the crime his nerve wavered and
his confession was gradually made.
Lee Is employed as a farmhand at
Pomfret. He will be given a hearing
before Justice C'harles O. Thompson at
Pomfret this (Tuesday) morning.
Lee was locked up Monday night at
police headquarters for safe keeping
and will be taken to Pomfret this
it

Beer Peddled from Cant in Oil Wagon
Two Successful Raids Bad Ice
Storm.
Deputy Sheriff Helm and Constable
Hayes raided a resort kept by Pros
pera Sartori on Gold street Saturday
night and secured 76 bottles and one
keg of beer. They also visited the
store kept by De Dalt Brothers and
seized two five-gallon cans and one
three-gallon Jug full of grappo, a very
strong Italian wine. It was kept In oil
cans and it is alleged that the proprie
tors, who run a kerosene oil cart, ped
dled the liquor and sold It from the
cart. This scheme naturally led peo
ple to suppose that the cans contained
oil. The search warrants were issued
by Prosecuting Agent M. D. O'Connell.
Sartori pleaded guilty to violating the
liquor laws and paid a fine of $90 and
costs In the borough court Monday
The proprietors of the De Dalt Store

COLUMBIA TOWN MEETING.
Typographical Errors in Last Week's
Correspondence.
In last week's Columbia correspon
dence several typographical errors oc
curred in the item regarding the spe
cial town meeting. The item stated
that "an opinion by a prominent at
torney in this county was also pre
sented to the meeting, stating that as
the town was not sued, or mentioned
as a defendant in the case, and as the
case was still in the courts, the town
could be held leeally bound to pay at
tornev fees." The word not was left
out. The Item should have read: "Th
town could not be held legally bound,"
etc. Further on the Item stated that
"the amount paid by the selectmen for
fees of attorneys is a little less than
$240." It should read a "little more
than $240." Also In the Item regarding
dancing in thi town building. The
amount of Mrs. Teomans" gift to the
town is riven as $7.D00. whereas the
amount should have reed $1 500.

Prison Warden Tells Some Facts
About Reading of Hi Wards.
Warden Albert Garvin of the Con
necticut state prison told the Massa
chusetts Library club last week some
Interesting things about the Horary at
tie Wethersneld Institution.
The equipment of each cell at Weth
ersfleld includes a library catalogue,
and also a small slate which contains
the prisoner's name and number, and
on which he writes the book desired
and In addition six or eight books to
select from in case his first choice Is
out. Books may be exchanged twice a
week on Mondays and Fridays. They
may be held for a fortnight.
The prison library Is maintained by
an annual state appropriation of $500
and also by donations .of books and
magazines, and. exclusive of school
books, It now cantalns over 7,000 vol
umes, of which 31 per cent, represents
works of fiction.
The average dally population of the
prison last year was B60 and the num
ber of books drawn by the prisoners
was 25,220, an average of over 45
books for each convict. If the Illiterate
and the Insane are eliminated, the av
erage number of books drawn by each
prisoner wa slightly over flvs each
month.
Apart from the magazines Shakes
peare's works were the most popular
feature of the library" a striking
trttrate to tho wide appeal which the
Bard of Avon mnkes to the human
mind and heart. The other most pop
ular works In their order, exclusive of
certain reference volumes, were Lord's
Beacon Lights of History, Booth's Af
ter Prison, What? Cody's Grammar
and Word Study, Phllpotts' American
Prisoner, Avnry's Virginian Girl in the
Civil War and Wister's Virginian.

Deer in Housatonio.
One day last week, after the heavy
rains had raised the Housatonlc river,
a large deer attempted to cross the
stream near the irn bridge In Fall
Village. The current carried the ani
mal down 3tream until he came In con
tact with a rock, where he was firmly
held despite his struggles. A number
of Falls Village people became aware
of the deer's predicament and went to
its assistance. One of these citizens
by climbing out on a tree which ex
tended over the water had nearly
reached the animal when In fright It
made, a, last vigorous effort to free It
self and was successful, after which It
made its way with much difficulty to
the opposite shore and disappeared in
the woods.
