The latter "denied that lectman Gibney had'ever told him he was invited to the meeting and, to prove this. he sent out for Mr. Gib- ney to have him prove it. While they were waiting for the first selectman. Mr. Webster started to leave the room. *Oh. don't go,™ advised Mr., Baldwin. “That. isn't nice, Stay here and face the music.” At thig juncture Mr. Gibney en- tered. “Mr. Gibney, did you ever tell me that Mr. Webster had invited me to that meéting upstairs?” shout- ed Mr. Baldwin. “ln fact, how many times did you speak to me about the matter.’ E “Twice,” “When."” i “Once a short time before the | meeting was held and again today.” “What did you te'l me, if you re- member ?" s “I said that the board invited to the meeting.” Mr, Baldwin then turned to Mr. Webster and began scoring him in no uncertain terms, The latter was about to reply and bexun joshing with | Mr. Baldwin, but the big selectman turned on his heel. shouting, "‘Oh, 1 don't want to talk to vou.” replied Mr. Gibney. had been Some Good Speakers. In addition to clearing up many af- fairs in regard to the town's manage- ment, the several town meetings which have been held this year have brough out fact that there were many very good speakers among the voters in Berlin. Much was said about town today about the manner in whic! some of the taxpayers delivered their talks and of the good knowledge of parliamentary order which they dis- | played. During all of the meetings, a poor speech had been very rar It has been said that the ability of many of the speakers is due to the membership in the two local literary organizations has had ! upon them. The gentlemen from | Kensington have an excellent instftu- tion in the Men's Lyceum and those who hail from Worthington distriet have reason to be proud of the Berlin Literary society.

It is seldom that one of the Lyceum members “loses himself" in a discussion, so to speak and, when they take the floor to make a state- ment, they command the admiration and respect of all of their colleagues. The bhenefits of this able - public speaking are numerous and obvious.

Three members of the committee { werc held only because the voters were advised that the | have some official leaders While the matter of collecting taxes and pav- ing the bills already incurred is in progress. Eliminated from the committee are B. Newton, J, N. McKernan, A. H. ndell and H. A, Castle. These raen served the district faithfully for the past few yvears and toek an active part in the work which rell to the iot of the officers, They were sum- marily dismissed from service last cvening, the voters present seemingly | fearing that if a full committee was selected there would be a possibility of bringing up /the sewer question in some new form. a move which they apparently do not favor. Last night'’s mecting drew a number of socialists and a fair representation from the anti-sewer faction. They were evidently determined to kill the sewer question in such a manner that it will have to remain buried for at least a few vears and it must be ad- mitted that they made good progress towards their goal. Except for the dismissel of a ma- jority of the old committee and the acceptance of the reports of the officers the voters transacted no busi- ness of importance last night and while the meeting lasted for some | time it failed to develop any very in- teresting features. There were but about twenty-five in attendance when Chairman Wheeler called the session to order. Joseph T. McCarthy acted as clerk of the session. An itemized report of Treasurer Newton was presented and accepted and the minutes of the meetings held during the vear were also passed on favorably The matter of electing the district committee was then brought up. S. B. Carpenter presented a resolution for the discharge of the committee. A. H. Condell claimed that the banks would insist on the district having recognized heads until the bills al- ready contracted have been paid, and should the meeting fail to elect any officers, the old committee would legally continue in power as the members were named to serve until their successors were appointed. John 8. Larson thought the com- mittee, having finished its year, auto- matically went out of office. Others did not agree with him, however, and Mr. Carpenter made no effort to force hie resolution on the meeting. A ballot for the election of the first member of the commitiee was then called for. Mr. Wheeler received a majority of the votes and was chosen. Several ballots were taken for the election of the second member with- out vrvesult. Mr. McCarthy finally asked his supparters to vote for O, H. Calor but before another ballot was taken S. P. Williams successfully moved that the secretary cast a ballet for Calor and in this manner the latter was selected. Mr. McCarthy was chosen in similar fashion and on motion of Mr. Williams it was de- cided to name no additional members, the district committee to be but a trio. The powers of the new committee are ag great as those held by the board of seven which has served since the organization of the district. Never- theless it seemed to be the sense of the meeting last night that the new lcaders are to serve only as figure- hedds, the collection of the taxes and the payment of the bills constituting their duties. After the selection of the tee, the meeting adjourned. To Bring Bride Home. William Cooke of Iast street, who has been spending winter on his father's piantation Cocoa, Klorida, has arranged for Plainville next week will he accompanied by his bride, the young man having been married during his stay in the South. and the couple will make their home here.

Undigested food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather, ferments the same as food left in the open air, says a noted authority. He also tells us that Indigestion is caused by Hy- per-acidity, meaning, there is an ex- cess of hydrochloric acid in the stom- ach which prevents complete diges- tion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid flulds and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lum- py, misery in the chest, we belch up gas, we eructate sour food or hs heartburn, flatulence, water-brash or nausea. He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar- macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa- ter hefore breakfast and drink while it is effervescing and furthermore, to continue this for a week. While re- lief follows the first dose, it is import- ant to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus pro- mote a free flow of pure digestive Juices. Jad Salts is inexpensive and s made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia aud sodium phosphate. This harmless salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with excellent re- sults. depending on the town for during the winter. Bill Will Be Over $300, Acting on the advice of Judge W. . Henney, the town’'s counsel, Selectman Johnson is preparing an itemized atement to show the expense In- curred by the town in removing from of trees 3 This will be presented to the Bristol and Tramway company as a part of the claim which the town has against the corporation. An examination of the books shows that it cost $292.560 for the actual work or removing the stumps. The preliminaries were also attended by some expense and the bill will total over $300., The selectman have not decided as to what amount that will name as proper compensation for the injury done to the strcets by the loss of the trees. This matter will be considered when Judge Henney takes up the ques- tion of settling the other bill with the legal representatives of the trolley company. Good Return From Bills. While bills for town and taxes have been out but two days, Collector Hemingway reports that several of the townseople have already made responses. A number were so anxious to settle their accounts that they made per- sonal calls on the collector for their bills last week, the sending out of the statements having been delayed. Mr. Hemingway feels greatly encouraged over the readiness of the taxpayers to pay their bills and he feels it augnurs well for large collections by the end of the month. Brief Items.

Havana, April 6.—The city of Ha- vana was today fast resuming its cus- tomary aspect after the intrusion yes- terday upon its normal life of the excitement and enthusiasm incident to the passing of the world's ' heavy. son to Jess Willard sixth round of the contest. The citizens of Havana are planning to give the new champion a public re- ception tonight and present him with a gold watch. §pectators, tourists and fight promoters are leaving the city as fast as facilities offer; the principals also are impatiently wait- ing to be off, and the great fight is rapldly becoming past history to the city where it was held. The men most interested in the fa- mous battle took little part in the general celebration of last night. Willard spent the early part of the evening sightseeing with friends from Kansas, after which he had dinner and went early to bed. The pro- moters were at the race track un- til long after midnight counting the gate receipts. The official total is not yet knawn, but there is no reason to believe they exceeded $125,000. The silver coins of all denominations taken in at the race track are piled up in barrels. and alongside of them are stacks af bills, many of them old and dirty and almost falling apart. The mystery of Johnson's disap- pearance is now explained. He went to the race track to see the gate money counted, although he had no financial interest in the receipts, and at the same time to keep away from visitors. The absence of the negro from his house led to.wild rumors last night that he was seriously hurt and in a hospital, and that gone into hiding to avoid United States detectives who were said t be after him for infraction of federal statutes, { The plans for departure for both | Willard and Johnson became known tod Willard and his promoters und supporters will leave here Wed- nesday for Key West on their north; Johnson, accompanied by wife and some friends, expects to leave Havana the latter part of the week for the French Island of Mar- tinique in the West Indies.
