The long expected oil for the roads of Berlin and vicinity has at last grrived and yesterday a thin sprink- ling of the dust-laying - put on Worthington ridge. A heavier aver will be needed to put the road- in perfect condition and will no doubt be applied later. The oil has heen needed for some time. and as Berlin lies on one of the main routes in New England, the automobile ‘traffic is necessarily heavy.

Angelo Renaldi whose hand was severely injured by being caught in an emery wheel at the Berlin Bridge Works last Saturday will leave the New Britain General hospital tomor- row. The patient has recovered completely from the loss of blood and unless some unexpected compli- cations set in he should soon be well again. The Injury was a very pain- ful one, the second and third fingers of the right hand being torn off by the rapidly revolving wheel. Angelo is one of three brothers who have been visited with an over- large amount of hard luck during the past vear. Last fall they purchased a house on Turkey hill and a short while afterwards the dwelling was completely destroyed by fire. Some time previous the unfortunate trio lost their first house by flames and today one of them admitted that he did not know just where to look for the next bit of misfortune, but, nev theless, he knows it is on the Grange Makes Plans.

DOUBLE TRACK 10 BE EXIENDED Connecticut Co. Assures Selectman That Work Will Be Done Before Laying of Pavement Is Completed— Chickens Make Trouble—Briefs, Assurance that will the Connecticut extend its double to a point on Whiting street in front of the Allderidge block been received by First Selectman W. J. Johnson from officials of the road, who have notified him that they have entered into an agreement with the Connecticut and Rhode Island com- pany of Meriden, which has the con- tract for laying amiesite pavement on East Main street and Central square, for the installation of special work on the corner while the work on the highway is in progress. The town officials have been some- what anxious about the trolley com- pany’s plans, as they feared that the pavement might be laid without the extension of the double iron for which the corporation was given the neces- sary permission more than a year ago. The extension of the track at is time will eliminate the possibil- ity of the pavement being torn up this summer. Delay in the shipment of the oil used in mixing the paving material will hold up the contractors for a few da, They have their mixing plant set up near White Oak, but thus far have been able to prepare but little of the material owing to a shortage of oil. The contract must be finished within thirty working days after May 25, the date set by the highway commissioner for beginning the job. Selectman Johnson will make an effort to have the Connecticut com- pany extend the paving area tc the proposed terminal of the double tracks on Whiting street. He believes the street shouid be paved where the tracks are so numerous for the pro- tection of vehicles. The matter will be taken up with officials of the road and the highway commissioner be- fore the East Main street job is fin- ished. company tracks has Monkey Made Escape. A monkey hunt was the novel en- tertainment provided for a number of people who visited Lake Compounce yesterday. One of the little animals on exhibition at the resort escaped from its cage in the morning and made its getaway into the woods, easily eluding the grove attendants who pursued it. During the afternoon a posse was organized and Mr. Monk was chased over a considerable part of the moun- tain, It was finally coaxed from a tree top to the ground, where it was caught. It was said that the capture was effected by one of the attendants disguising himself as an ex-president and giving the call of a bull moose as he followed the chattering ape. Withdraws Application. The application of Mrs. John B. Skinner for the appointment of a con- servator over her mother, Mrs. Mc- Donald, has been withdrawn from the probate court. Judge George R.

Pleading for clemency in that he might be able to finish the cultivation of his corn field, Frank Cafferty this morning succeeded in convincing Justice E. P. Prior that he should not be deprived of his liberty and he was let off with a fine of $1, the court placing him on pro- bation for six months and serving notice that on his next appearance he will be bound over as a common drunkard. . Cafferty was arrested yesterday Sheriff W. C. Hart for intoxication. He was released from jail about a month ago. Since that time he has been planting corn on a field he has under cultivation and according to his story he took his first day off ves- terday. He thought the corn would not receive proper attention if he were sent back to the Seyms street hostelry and his plea saved him from a sentence. May Make No Protest. Assessor George R, Byington was in Hartford yesterday to appear be- fore the state board of equalization to offer a protest against the action of that body in increasing the grand list of the town by $250,000. Prac- tically all the towns in the state were given a “boost” by the board thi year and most of them sent rep- resentatives to the capitol yesterday to register a kick. Plainville was twenty-seventh on the list. The local assessor waited until 3 o'clock for a hearing but as the commissioners had finished but four pleas up to that time, he de- cided to return home. The board will meet again next week but it is unlikely that Plainville will be represented. The town offi- cials believe a protest will be useless and that the increase will stand no matter what action they may take. Autoist Arrested. Detective Williams of Hartford came here last night to serve a war- rant on John J. Kimmel of East Main street, who it is alleged failed to obey the “stop” signal of a traffic officer in the capital city last Tues- day when he was driving his auto by a school house. The school children were being dis- rmssed at the time and it is claimed that Mr. Kimmel disregarded the in- structions of the traffic officer, who ordered him to stop while the children were crossing the street. The number of the machine secured and the prosecutor made « warrant for his arrest. in the usual fashion. order by Local was out TLocal Cops After Autoists.
