AUTOMOBILE DELIVERY FOR NEW BRITAIN YOU CAN DEPEND ON PROMPTLY RECEIVING ALL DRY GOO DS PURCHASED OF US, Berlin News WILL SEN. STEVENS GET RENOMINATION? Tak of Offing fFm Anothe Term i General Assemby. OTHER - CANDIDATES ~ MENTIONED Who Will Daniel Webster?—Union Meetings in Kensington During Pastors’ Va- cauons—cnrde;;ers' Association. Now that the fire has been kindled under the political pot for the sena- torial election this fall, the local “stove councils’’ have begun their ses- sions, and the wiseacres are already speculating as to possible strong can- didates. There has been considerable talk about offering Senator Claude W. Stevens of Kensington the nomination tor re-election from the fifth sena- torial district. He has neither con- firmed nor depied the reports, and it is extremely probable that he would accept the nomination. Mr. Stevens was elected to the gen- eral assembly in the election of 1912, immediately after he had served two years as representative from the town of Berlin. He defeated Thomas At- . Water of ‘Southington, the democratic candidate, by a plurality of 535 votes at this time. During his terms in the legislature, Senator Stevens has been very active and ‘has represented the people of his territory to the best of his ability and is decidedly popular about the state. - As a member of the appropriation and other committees, he did commendable work. " Representative Daniel Webster's term also expires this year, and the nzmes of several prominent men to succeed him have been mentioned, among which are those of Clarence Fierce, Frank L. Wilcox, R. O. Clark, William H. Webster, Dr. R. M. Gris- wold and Senator Stevens. Years ago, thére was an unwritten law in this town which ‘provided that the representative should come .from euch of the Worthington and Kensing- ton districts every other election. Al- though it was voted a few years ago to do away with this old precedent, | many are inclined to feel that a Ken- sington man should be offered the re- rublican nomination this vear and | when the time comes. a lively debate | will undoubtedly take place in regard 40 the matter. The democratic element has always | been‘greatly: in the minority here, but | it is said that Richard Murray will be rominated as candidate for senator from this district. Berlin is but one of eight towns cemprising the fifth senatorial district. Other towns and cities are Southing- ton, Plainville, Bristol, Farmington, West Hartford, Avon and Burlington. “About 7,000 vates are cast in this sec- tion. Succeed Representative { Valuable Dog Run Down. A valuable collie dog belonging to James Kerrigan of Kensington was run down and killed by an automobile i lookout Saturday. The dog became be- wildered and ran directly into ‘the path of the machine. The driver was very courteous and went back to the Kerrigan house and explained mattars before proceeding on his way. Many Autos on “Ridge.” Almost a continuous line .of auto- mobiles passed through. this town yes- terday en route to the shore resorts, Speed laws were observed, however, and the officers, who kept a sharp for vielators, came back empty handed. , 5 M Kensington Independents Defeated. Due to a numbBér of ‘costly errofs, the Kensington Independent baséball team went down to a 5-2 defeat be- fore the Plainville team yesterday af- ternoon in a game played in’ Plain- ville.

Mr. Baker wishes to have the li- cense, which is now in the names of himself and John Woods written in his own name, as he and Woods have dissolved partnership, the latter hav- ing accepted a position in a New Britain factory.

The congregations of the Kensing- ton Methodist. and Congregational churches have hit upon a novel scheme for getting along during their respective pastors’ vacation periods, which is to hold union services on August 2 and 9.

The venture was unsuccessful, how- ever, and they later sold the building to the Corbin Paper Box company, Mr. Jones taking a position as me- chanic. He continued in that capacity with other concerns which have since occupied the building until recently, when illness forced him to give up. During his career he invented sev- eral devices of considerable help to mechanics, but never reaped much of a financial profit from them. While he has worked steadily all his life, poor investments kept his purse well depleted and he now admits having less than, $50. Tries Out New Biplane.
