BURTON, session the matter of electing a suffragan bishop will be considered and the plan is expected to receive the support of the local delegates. Officers for the ensuing year were selected as follow: Senior Warden—James A. Eaton. Junior Warden—R. E, Weeden. Clerk—William S. Eaton. Treasurer—C. H. Curtis. Vestrymen—C, H. Spalding, Samuel Backey, W. S. Eaton, C. H. Curtis, J. H; LaField, C. T. Cottrell. ‘Delegates to Convention—C. H. Cur- tis and R. E. Weeden, b ARernates—C. F.' Spalding and James A. Eaton. Auditors—C. F. Spaulding and R. E. Weeden, The reports of the officers speak well for the accomplishments of the church rector, Rev. R. H. Burton. His untiring efforts are largely re- sponsible for the condition of the parish and to him is accorded the credit for the splendid showing made during the year. ’ Next to Rev. H. T. Waf8h, Mr. Bur- ton is the oldest clergyman in °the town in point of service. On April 1st he started on his twelfth year as rector of the Episcopal church. He takes a 1lively interest in civic better- ments as well as in the work of his church and is always found support- ing any move that might bring any benefit to the town. He is a member of the school béard and one of its most interested workers. Doctors Disagree at Hearing. Physicians disagreed as to the cause of pneumonia from which Harold Reed of this place suffered for gevf eral weeks, at- a hearing held. in Hartford vesterday before Commis- sloner Chandlér on the young man's application for benefits under the workingmen's compensation act. His claim was contested by the Aetna In- surance company of Hartford with which the Orient Music company' of Forestville, Reed's employers, carried insurance. On January 29th, Reed while cgrry- ing a roll of paper upstairs af/ the factory fell and was internally. in- jured. He was laid up for some/time, pneumonia developing after thtf acci- dent. / The insurance company, refysed to pay his claim for compensation ap- parently for the reason that. they considered the accident had mnothing to do’with the attack of pndumonia. Dr. J. C. Tanner, Reed’s physician, told Commissioner Chandler that one of the young man’s ribs had been bruised to such an extent that pleu- risy and pneumonia developed. The insurance company’s medichl repre- sentative, Dr. Purney of New Britain, did not belleve it possible to prove that the accident caused pneumonia as he declared, Reed may have been: in, a debilitated condition before he was hurt-and would have begn i1l any- way. Whether a chiropractor is a phy= sician in the meaning of the law was one of the delicate questions raised before the commissioner during the hearing. The compensation law re- quires that the employer furnish o doctor when one of their workmen is hLurt. - ' 'In, Reed’s case, Chiropractor :Wooding of New Britain was engaged by the employers to treat him. He is reported to have told Reed a day or two after the accident that he was counsel. Commissioner Chandler gave up over two hours to the hearing of tes- timony in the case and after all wit- nesses had told their stories, he an- nounced that he would reserve de- two. McKernan Gets Contract. i The board of selectmen Vvesterday \::tlernoon decided to reconsider its j recent action in rejecting an offer of ; lingineer Joseph N. McKernan to . brepare a system of house number- ing in connection with the eestab- i lishment of city delivery service in { Plainville and they have advised him | that they will engage him to do the work for $50, the price which he or- iginally submitted. Mr. McKernan some time ago pre- ipared a map of the town for the | sewer district. It shows all the | properties, including dwellings and building lots. A house numbering system can be easily prepared from this and it will be unnecessary to make any new surveys. After the engineer submits his lay- out, the selectmen intend to turn it over to some firm which will supply the houses with numbers. The town will bear the expenses of preparing | the lay-out but the numbers will have to be paid for by the residents them- selves. Several salesmen have already can- vassed the town in an effort to sell the numbers. The selectmen believe, owever, that it would be well for the property owners to wait until the en- gineer's plan is ready as a single firm .will be selected to use it. The board intends to get the successful firm to, agree to sell the numbers at a speci- fied amount per figure. An effort will be made to have the Plainville Hardware company handle the sale of the numbers and mail re- ceptacles at the, same time. Connecticut Co. Explains. Selectman Johnson yesterday re- ceived a letter from Engineer E. C. Webster of the Connecticut company in which the delay in the laying of special work at the center in connec- tion with the double tracking of East Main street last fall was explained. The engineer stated that at the time the irons were put in position the curve rails had not arrived and the center had to be made the terminal. The company js now ready to com- plete the work, however, and the en- gineer stated that as soon as notice is received from the highway commis- Sioner regarding the awarding of the contract for laying permanent pave- ment on East Main street, men will be sent here to extend the switch to a point in front of the Plainville Bak- ing company’s store as was called for in the company’s original application. The engineer sent a duplicate blue print of the double track at the select- man’s request, the original map hav- ing been lost. i Brief Items. Sequassen lodge, I, O. O.
