NEW HAVEN. oct. 31.——G. Har-
old Gilpatric, former state treasurer.
facing service of a. sentence of 15
years in the federal prison at At—
lanta, spent a restful night at. the
New Haven county jail. according to
Jailor Baldwin. He was taken to the
Jail and confined in a cell following
his sentence yesterday by Federal
Judge E. S. Thomas in the United
States court here. after he had plead-
ed guilty to 23 counts of embeuel-
ment as cashier of the First National
Bank of Putnam. wrecked as a re-
sult of his admitted speculations.
The prisoner seemed cheerful this
morning and announced that he had
slept well during the night, the
jailer said. He had par-taken of a
light supper of tea and toast in the
jail kitchen before retiring to his cell
for the night. A special guard was
in attendance at Gilpatric's cell dur-
ing the night and will continue there
until the prisoner is removed to At-
lanta. psi-on sometime next week.
This was due to the fact‘that Gil-
patrlc is still totally blind and. has
not fully accustomed himself to the
condition. brought on. by his at-
tempt at suicide last August. When
he shot himself in the temple at his
home.

Except \in his blindness Gllpat-
rie appeared to be in fairly good
physical condition during his appear-
ance at court yesterday and his sub-
sequent trip to the jail. He was con-
stantly supported, however, by l'nlt-
ed States Marshall Jacob D. \Valter.

"Child labor is a disgrace to this

the states in Which child labor was
allowed and where the youngsters

wards. Constable Clarence 8cm

recently. and according to latest_
news he is consulting experts as,
to the manner of investing it
without causing a panic in the
money market.
Clarence recently noticed a.
1923 Buick car stop he. Darlen.
and not liking the looks of the
driver. Gerald Leclerc of Man-

His hunch was correct. The car
was stolen. Authorities were no-

machine. An officer came at
the same time to take Gerald.
away.
The owner was so overjoyed to

opened his hand he found a
