the first to boparoled. Bates, in-
stead of going to the Cheshire Re-
formatory in accordance with the
sentence of Judge Allyn L .Brown.
has returned to his home in Norwaik
"to make a man of himself."
The unusual feature of Bates case
is that he obtained his own parole.
County Attorney John Cause. of
Norwalk. appeared in court for him
when he was arraigned for burglary
and made an eloquent plea. Bates.
however. was regarded as the lead‘
er of a group of four others similar-
ly charged. and while sentences in
other cases were suspended. he was
committed to the reformatory for an
indefinite term.
In the county Jail. awaiting trans-

his situation and decided to make

Judge Brown had Bates brought
from the jail to his office.
"Bates, I have received your lot-
ter. Do you really mean what you
wrote ?" queried Judge Brown.
"Yes si _ every wopd of it," do-
clared Bass. who again put forth
a plea for another chance.
Then Judge Brown had a heart-
to-heart talk with the accused told
him that he thought he was fairly
sentenced and that the court had
considered what would be best for
him as well as for the public. ' Bates
was told that his plea. had impress-
ed the court. and that he would be
givenanothor opportunity during
which he could either demonstrate
that his declarations were sincere or
serve the sentence. Judge Brown
thereupon issued an order ssupend-
ing the execution of the reformatory
sentence.
“Come 7” Cries Youth,

Chief of Police William R. Pen-

day about some young men shooting

East avenue and Seaview avenue.
He went to the scene and was dis-
covered by oncof the young men
as he got near the building. and a
mad rush was started for the win-
dows and doors. In their'insd rush
to get away a small amount of
change was left on the floor of the
building.
Chief Pennington called to some of
the young men to come back and
when they did he med them that
if he received another complaint lie
would make arrests. He also suited
that the owner of the money could
have it by calling at the police sta-
