Applications May Be Made After
August 1, Certificates issued
in November

 

 

At last the county commissioners
have received a copy of the new law
relative to “club certificates," as they
call me new club litiuor license which:
all clubs must soon take out. 9

I'ndcr the terms of the, law no cer-
tiilcute is to be issued until the first
Monday in November, but all regular
clubs or fraternal societies whicn do
sire to dispose of liquor to members
as an incident, may make applica-L
tlon .ua required by law, alter Aug;
net 1 next. 1

certificate is $100
$50 as was first supposed. it seems‘
that the figure was increased during:
the closingtdays of the legislative ses-
alon. ,

Applications must be made in the
usual way to the commissioners, but
must. be shown the character of the
club, its by-iaws.‘ the nature of its
membership, whether or not any ml-
nors belong, and how its rooms are
arranged. The commissioners, if they
see fit, cnnjvisit. the' rooms for the
purpose of considering the arrange-
ments. _-
These applications are subject to
remonstrance. the same as any other
liquor license and appeals may be tak-
en from the decision of the county
commissioners.

The certificates "are not' subject to
transfer, as is a regular liquor
cense.

The penalties for violating any of
the provisions of the law. or for
handling liquor contrary to law are
very severe, including the possibility
of a fine of $1,000. or a sentence of
six months in jail, for second or sub-
sequent convictions.

The State will get the benefit to
a large extent of the revenue derived
for club certificates. Seventy-five per
cent-goes to the State treasury, lif-
teen per cent. to the town and ten
fiper cent. to the county.

No certificate can be issued to any
club in a no-license town“ If the
'law' is enforced wit will put.out of
business, every club organized for
Sunday liquor selling, because it ’will
be illegal for ‘any club to dispose of

the certificate» will be liable to for-
felture.

Louis Tarlov in the Norwallt Hospi-
tal With This Through His Body

 

 

A 22 calibre bullet crashed through
the body‘ of thirteen-year-old Louis
Turiov, sun of Mrs. Rose Tarlov, of
Connecticut avenue. yesterday after
noon about 5:30 o'clock wuhin several
hundred feet of his home on the turn-
pike, when a rijr. which he Was han-

PROVIDENCE, R. 1., July 17.-—.\'or- as chairman of a board of three ar-'dling, accideutly exploded. The young

man is in the hospital in a serious con-
dition. The probability of internal in-
morning,
makes it impossible to predict his re-
covery.

The bullet entered the young man‘s,
left side near the upper‘part of the;
‘ abdomen .and continuing on its course'

separated the intestines three times,
coming out in the region of the kid-
ncys. That the barrel of the ride was
very near the body is evident from the
fact that 'the abdomen was scorched
with powder.

it appears that Louis did not own
the rifle, but had borrowed it from a
ncighbor, whose name the family does
not know. It is said the boy had been
warned not to take the gun by its own-
er. but he had insisted on it. No one

jwas with Tarlov when the gun was
discharged, but a play-mate. who had

been talking with him a short time
before, was walking with his back
toward him a hundred feet. or so up
the road, i» '

The injured boy was carried to his
who had been
startled by the shot. and Dr. F. l. Bur-
nell was called, Dr. William J. Tracey
being summoned in consultation. "Mt-
er the wound was dresed, and the
young man made as comfortable as
possible. he was taken to the Norwalk
Hospital for treatment.

Louis is a popular young man. and

It is disclosed that ”19 femfor ”1““ has many friends in this city, all ot.‘

piete recovery.

Local watchmen are discussing thei
probability of an organized band of;
boat thieves working in the waiersj
about Norwalk and vicinity. Several:
days ago the local police received the
report from Bridgeport of a theft of
a 25-foot sloop from a dock near the
Locomoblle Works, in that city.

Right after this report comes a

night at City Hall headquarters. that
a 25-foot launch, owned by Frank
Williamson, officroion, was stolen

boat and the thieves}

It is tin'derstood\.th§t would-be:
thieves have also been active near
