But ' Suit of Constable Ottimer. for Assadting Andrews Boy. was Continued Until " fell. 27 Monday was a gala day at Noroton Heights, as the new court room was to be opened, and the first criminal case of state vs. Fred Ottimcr, for assault on the son of William Andrews, was to be tried. All day long the inhabi- tants began to gather, and when court began its session at 2 o'clock, thc room Was'filled to ovcrilowing, and an there were no seats, there was quite a jungle. The trouble began some days ago, and it must he remembered that the prisoner is the constable of Noroton. who happened by sheer bad luck to be the first man tried in the now court. It all came about through a mistake. He was driving along through Nor-o- ton. peacefully dreaming of the. future, when. from the modest beginnin it was to make. Noroton would become the county seat. and have a great big stone court house, He was dimly wondering who would be the first prisoner, when suddenly a tremendous dog bounced out of a yard and commenced to bark at the constable, He raised his whip to strike the dog, and not seeing the small son of William T. Andrews, wal« loped him by mistake. Then there was trouble right off. Mr. Andrews went to the grand juror, who was not quite sure what to charge the constable with. He had a printed warrant with a long list of crimes on it. from which the grand juror is supposed to cross of! all but the right one. Being some- what in dbubt, he did not cross off any of the crimes at. all which left the poor constable charged with everything from murder, down to, robbing a hen- roost. while‘ as a, matter of' fact he was only the’victlm of a mistake. The warrantlbeiug duly made out. the question arose as to. who should serve it. “(lamenting yuan who was wanted, was the only quallflttd consta- ble in Noroton, he would be called upon to arrest himself, which might bring about all s , _ . ‘ plicatiousc If, for. W should c _ to re- sist himself. and put up a fig talnst going. there would he no teliln when he would get arrested. . This p use or the question being cagefully considered in legal circles of N rotcn, it was de- cided to get Constable Dave Nelson Mather. of Darien. to serve the war- rant. He accordingly, went to Noroton . .,. W. a» ,.,., y. AIIOC at the South Norwalk Entered Post-Office as Second Ollll latter.

Thcx audience was largo. thcrc uciug four hundred per sons prt-scut, and all appreciative of the atllta'liillih' giwu by the well-known artists who took part in the program. Mr. (li‘liwv'h‘ solo was recoivod with enthusiasm by the audience. ills clear .cnunclutiou, purc tones and the expres- sivr- rcnderiug of his selection were well calculated to enthuse his hearers. Although Mrs. Frank Lauder had 'nevcr been heard by this audience Iw fore, it will be long before she is for- gotten by them. Her story "My Sweet Pea," was listened to from the first word with intentnesa and every indoc- tiou of voice and each new thought, so well brought out by her interpretation of the characters were followed with eagerncss by her hearera The hearty applause which followed attested to the merit of her work.

Any suspicion which may have been held by the police that poisoning caus- ed the deaths was dispelled by the ant- opslen performed on the bodies. These autopsies showed no trace of poison. but on the other hand several eviden- cos of asphyxiation were found. Mrs. Canfield is no longer under sur- veillance by the police. Her own condi- tion is more serious than was at first supposed. and last night it was said that she was seriously ill. The autopsies were performed late yesterday afternoon. and the several physicians who assisted Assistant Med~ lcal Examiner Godfrey were of the un- animous opinion that death had been caused by asphyxiation. There was not a sign of poisoning in either body. In each body cxidences of asphyxiation of the kidneys and lungs was found, to- gether with a depression of heart ac- tion. _Snpcrintendcnt of Police Birmingham was notified of the medical examiner's report and he announced that so far as the police department was concern- ed the matter was ended. No further action would be taken by him. and the surveillance of the Cnufield residence would cease immediately. The arrangements for Mr. Canileld's funeral will not be completed until his parents return tram Florida today. Last night it was said that the condi~ tion of Mrs. Canfield was quite serious.
