TOWN'S GROWTH N Ifl[ BALANCE W, Gordon Brown to Be Given Hear- ing by bc«\r(-lur‘\' of State Tuesday— “Patsey” Kingo Sues—Harvard Car Stops at Berlin. It is with the hope that something will be done for the introduction of water power into Berlin that the peo- ple of the town, particularly those of Kensington, look forward anxiously toj the next sessian of the state leg- islature. - Before that time the agitation on the question, which is now at high pitch, is expected to take definite form, and the town's representative, Dr. Roger M. Griswold, be instructed to introduce a bill asking for one of the four possible methods of improvement (1) the amendment of the charter of New Britain so as to allow that city to extend its water system to Kensington; (2) the establishment of a fire district; (3) the granting of a borough charter ta Kensington or (4) the demand of the American Paper Goods company to supply the town with water undgr the charter which it was granted by the general assem- bly four vears ago. Extend New Britain Mains. The present consensus of opinion is that the first of these plans would | be the most feasible, for as has been ! pointed out, it would be a compar- | atively small matter for the city of| New Britain to extend its water sys. tem from the town line at Towers’ | rner, where it now terminates, to {ensington. In the event of this: being done the expense of laying the | additional pipe would, of course, de- | volve upon the Hardware City which, | however, would, in turn, be reim- »d by the revenue collected from thpse who used the water and who ) would be only too glad to pay a little :xtra for this necessary Improve- ment By ‘the establishment of a fire dis- ct in Kensington, the taxpayers of | ‘he “aistrict would be authorized by ihe .state to pfovide a water system for themselves. This would involve 1 large expense, but it is safe to say | that by the issue of bonds it would not ‘be impractical. ¢ This expense would be the same through a borough charter, for this! ument would, among other things, incluce the provision for the fire dis. jct and for the establishment by the Laxpayers of a water system of their bwn. ig Expense to Paper Factory. Before being allawed to supply the bublic with water for domestic pur- boses, the American Paper Goods com- any would have to buy up all the nd on the water sheds of the streams reservoirs bought for the pur- i that bordering pose, and to remove all buildings therefrom. This it would be com- pelled to do by the state board of health acting under authority vested in it by a state law, and when the officers of the company came to re- alize that the project would cost them a very lage amount they would prob- ably abandon the idea. After considering these various phases, the majority of thase who discuss the question admit that the most advisable of the four solutions| of the water difficulty in Kensington is the one for ‘the extension of the New Britain mains. Ultimate Need of Sewer, But, in which regardless of the manner the hopes of the Kensington people are realized, the of running water will ultimately mean the establishment of a sewer system here, and this question would prob- ably be more difficult to solve than that | now under consideration. The town could not utilize the Mattabessett river for sewage disposal. Neither could it well afford to construct filter beds, and the people of New Britain would undoubtedly set up a howl if Berlinites should suggest a proposition for turn- ing their sewage into the filter beds at Beckley Quarter. ‘What could be done under the circumstances? of course, it would be possible to do without the sewer for a time, but 1t would not be long before the need for it would be felt. Prominent among those in the agi- tation for the introduction of running water is Rev. J. C. Brennan, pastor of St. Paul's church in Kensington, Which, because of the lack of a water system, was obliged to sacrifice its valuable church on Main street in a disastrous fire a few years ago. The clergyman and ‘his parishioners have had the need of running water in Kensington impressed upon them quitg foreibly and feel justified in ask-~ ing for improvement along this line. Water Would Stimulate Growth, Tt has been estimated that the in- troduction of water power into Ken- sington would stimulate the district’s growth to such an extent that, with- in a period of less than ten years its ropulation would increase by about five thousand. All other modern im- provements dre enjoyed in that sec- tion of the town and, with ‘the addi- tion of running water, such land as on the New Britain Eranch of the railroad would quickly Le developed into valuable factory sites. G Dr. Roger M. Griswold, representa- tive-elect, in an interview with a Herald reporter, said: “In my opin- ion, there are but two satisfactory so- lutions of the water problem for Ken- sington; either by the extension of the New Britain water mains, or through a borough charter which shall include a part of the present so- called Kensington parish. “While the latter might for the present be the most expensive, it ould in the end be most satisfactory, under a borough charter we could provide for fire protection, for patrol of the streets, for laying sidewalks and so forth, “I fully realize the need of water in Kensington, but as representative for the whole town of Berlin, I am not at liberty to institute any action h might be construed as bene- ficial to one part of the town and detrimental to the rest of the town. Whatever action may be taken in the matter, I am anxious to do all in my power to bring about a satisfactory swold Makes Statement. introduction | | | | i I [ | “Patsey” Kingo of 1 | Meriden. { roon, ‘Df automobiles humming solution of what I recognize to be a difficult problem.” Kensington M.

With the windows gaily decorated with crimson banners and pennants, a car bearing the sign *“Special for Har- vard Team” stopped at the Berlin pas- senger station this morning at the rear end of the 8:456 New York ex- press. Immediately ahead of this coach was one carrying the Wesleyan fcotball team, which clashed with the New York University eleven in its last game of the season today in New. ! York. The entire train, which consisted of rearly a score of cars, was crowded with people en route for the big Yale- Harvard football game at the New Yale bowl in New Haven this after- All the south bound morning trains carried about double their regu- lar quota of coaches. That the rail- 10ad company had planned aheaq for the accommodation of a very large crowd was evident in the fact that the majority of the trains were on time. At 9:50, 1:20, 11:40, 12:00 and | 12:30 special train from Hartford tc New Haven whizzed through the local yards, all of which were taxed tc the platforms with rooters for the foctball game.

Mr. and Mrs. William Cunningham Maple street, well known resi- were married twenty-five years ago yesterday and last evening a large number of friends paid them a surprise visit to assist in the ob- servance of the silver wedding anni- versary. The couple had planned for informal celebration of the event and they were ganuincly sur- prised when a good sized delegation called at their home to extend their felicitations and make the occasion one to be happily remembered. The house was prettily decorated, yellow chrysanthemums standing out prominently in the color scheme. Vocal and instrumental selections rendered by Mrs. Martin Casey anid Miss Annie Cassidy were greatly en- joved. Both prizes went to New Britain, Mrs. Margaret Mulaney cap- turing first honors and Willlam Kra- mer getting the consolation award The couple received many gifts of silver fram their friends. Mr. and Mys. Cunningham are well and favorably known here. They have been residents of Plainville for many years and have a host of friends dents, ! Who' join in wishing them well on the occasion of their anniversary. They have seven children, five sons and two daughters. Mr. Trumbull is em- ployed at the Trumbull Electric com- pany’s plant and is well liked by his employes and factory associates. Departed Leaving Bills Unpaid. Mystery surrounds the continued absence from town of Anna Calow, a young colored woman, who left town suddenly three months ago, and has not been heard from since, and today the authorities were asked to take some action to straighten out her affairs. The woman had a flat in Nicolo Pestillo’s house near Hart’'s corner and the owners have not heard from her sin early in August. The fur- niture has not been disturbed and Anna seemingly has made no effort to have it removed or otherwise dis- posed of. Pestillo has not received any rent for the place for months. He now has an opportunity to get a new ten- ant for the flat and his wife called on Grand Juror Norton and Deputy Sheriff Hart this morning to find out what course she should pursue to get rid of the Callow woman's furniture and at the same time recover, if pos- sible, at least a part of the money due for rent. H Pestillo’s wife told Prosecutor Nor- which the concern attached on bhim several weeks ago at Styles & Tteynolds brick yards, when serving papers against his father, Joe Kingo. “Patsey” claims that his credit as a Lusiness man was impaired by the il- legitimate action of the grain con- cern. . Attorney Emil J. Danberg of New Britain is counsel for the defendant. Pleasant Husking Bee, A number of young people from this town, New Britain, Hartford, West Hartford and Bangor, Me., con- gregated in William H. Webster's spacious barn last evening for a husking bee. It was a very plea- sant occasion. The Misses Gertrude and Florence Webster were the hostesses. Certificates Bound. Bound volumes of all the cates of vital statistics which filed with the town clerk in the period between 1906 and 1913 were received at the office yesterday. There are three books, one each for certi- ficates of marriage, deaths and births. Berlin Congregational Church, At the Berlin Congregational church, the pastor, Rev. Samuel A.

He declares he has nothing to do with the fur- niture and as far as he is concerned the Pestillos may do what they please with it. Mrs. Pestillo told the police that the furniture was ‘held by the woman simply on a lease and that it belongs to the dealer. She was advised to notify the owners to remove it from the house. It was also suggested that she store the balance of the woman's possessions, Pass on Police Rules. The board of selectmen at its reg- ular meeting last evening accepted, with some slight changes, the rules governing the police officers of the town, as prepared by the chairman, William J. Johnson. Some of Mr. Johnson's colleagues did not believe it wise to lay out a long “beat” for the patrolman, as they believed his services are re« quired at the center a great part of his time. Selectman Johnson was willing to have the clause referring to the “beat” changed to allow the officer more latitude and making’ it unnecessary for him to cover it, at least when he believes he can give better service by remaining at the center. The other rules were adopted and will be put into effect at once. They are similar to those in use in many cities in Connecticut, '+ Offering for Red Cross.

' Try Tree Suit Wednesday, Efforts of Attorneys Noble E. Pierce and W, F. Henney, counsel for both sides, to settle the claims of A. H. Condell and other local prop- erty owners against the Bristol and Plainville Tramway company for trees, alleged to have been killed by gas a few years ago, have thus far been unsuccessful and there is now a possibility that the suits brought nearly a year ago will come up for trial. At the short calendar gession of the superior court yesterday, the suits were assigned for trial next Wed- nesday. Another effort will be made to ad- just the differences of the parties out of court. The company, it is said, admits Hability for the destruction of the trees but the attorneys have thus far been unable to agree on the amount of damages to which the owners are entitled. Brief Items.
