Brown, formerly conducted a feed shop here for a per- iod'of four or five years. lierlin Boy Secures Important Position Berlin is very much interested in the report that Major Walter G. Pen- field, son of ‘Walter S. Penfield of East Berlin, has been appointed the general manager of the Bridgeport Arms company at Bridgeport, Conn. ‘A large amount of new building is £oing on in Bridgeport at the present time, especially . by the Bridgeport Arms company. The Arms company when completed will be one of the largest manufacturing induste2s in New England and the interest of people not only in Berlin but also in Hartford, and Springfield is very much enhanced bécause of the . fact that Major Penfield is the active head. Major' Penfield ‘graduated from the Sheffield Scientific school of Yale | university and ‘was a major in the or- ) dinance, department of the TUnited $ates armory. Some four months | ago ‘he resigned his position as com- manding officer of the United States | arsenal and. armory at , Springfield, Mass., -and accepted his present posi- tion. h The Bridgeport Arms company is owned by the same parties who own the Union Metallic cartridge company, but is a separate and independent cor- poration and will employ 5,000 tol 6,000 men. ' Berlin is also very much interested in this industry from the fact that they are moving large quan- tities of Berlin brick to use in the con- struction of the buildings. A .local brick concern has shipped over a million brick for this work last month.

RUSSELL'S WIFE ASKS GRAND JUROR'S HELP Wealthy Youny Mam May Face Charges of Non-Support. COUPLE ESTRANGED SOME TIME Reported Young Husband Disclaims Responsibility Wife’s Board Bills—Prosecutor May for Issue War- rant, Complaining that -she has been neglected, Mrs. Agnes ~Russell has asked Grand Juror M. A. Norton to take the necessary legal steps to force her husband, Thomas G. Russell, to contribute towards her support in pro- portion to his financial standing 'and it was reported this morning that un- less the young man agrees to some arrangement for his wife's care that is more satisfoctory than that now in forge a warrant far his arrest will be issued. This morning Prosecutor Norton, while admitting that a com- plaint had been made to him, de- clined ta discuss the case, as his in- vestigation had not proceeded suffi- ciently to permit of his making any comment. Young Russell is said to be in the Hartford hospital receiving treatment. He spent several weeks in Dr. Givens' sanitarium returning home about a month ago. It is said that since that time the couple has. been es. tranged 'and that their difficulties came to a head Monday with a re- ceipt of a letter from an attorney in which it was declared that the young man would not hold himself re- sponsible for hoard bills contracted by his wife. Mrs. Russell has been Hving at the home of Henry O'Hara on Pine street, since a short time af- ter she came to Plainville. While the estate of the late Thomas Russell has not as yet been before the probate court for final settlement it is said that his son’s share will he nearly $14,00C. His father left property valued at over $60,000, and as no will was found, the estate is to be divided among the widow and three children. Young Russell and his wife. who was Miss Agnes Phee of Philadel- phia, were married in New York sev- eral months ago. . They came to Plainvilel to live a short time later. After the wedding the probate court appointed Mrs. Rose Russell, his mother, as his conservator, Judge By- ington having been advised that he was not competent to handle his own business affairs. Neither Russell or his wife objected to the proceedins, although the young woman subse- quently explained that she was not aware the session was to be held, her husband having explained that it had been settled. . While they have been living apart, Mrs. Russell’s board bill, amounting to $4 a week, has been paid out of her father-in-law’s estate but it is re- ported that Judge W. J. Malone of Bristol has been engaged to contest her efforts to get a court allowance. Ship Body From Queenstown. Word has been received in Bridge- port that the body of Isaac B. Trum- bull, of that city, was among the twelve corpses of Lusitania victims, chipped from Queenstown on Monday. The death ship will probably dock in New York either Sunday or Monday and the 'bodies will then be sent to relatives, Mr. Trumbull’s remains are consigned to Bridgeport, although it is said that it has not. been defi- nitely decided whether he will be buried in that city or in Plainville. Members of the. Trumbull famliy here are discouraging the idea that their plan of. starting the manufac- turing of munitions of war in the Trumbull factory is anything other than a pure business proposition. The spirit of revenge does not enter into it, they having taken up the venture even before the sinking of the Cunarder. While with other manufacturers in this country, they are maintaining absolute neutrality in accordance with the president's de- cree, any arms that might be shipped from their plant, will probably go to Great Britain and her alliés as Ger- rany apparently cannot get shipments across. Therefore the idea of aveng- ing the death of thelr brother - by making shrapnel was conceived in the | minds of people learning of their in- terest in the project. Cooke-Dimes Wedding. Levi Cook of Malden, Mass., Miss Katherine Dimes, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Joseph F. Dimes of Crown street, will be united in mar- riage Saturday afternoon. The cere- mony will be perfermed at 3:30 v’clock in the rectory of the Church of Our Saviour, Rev. R. H. Burton officiating. The couple will probably be unattended. Following the ceremony a reception to immedigte relatives and. a few iriends will be tendered at the home of the young lady's parents. After and Pythias of East Berlin was held last evening. Mrs. Sidney .M. Cowles of Kensing. ton, wWho was operated on yesterday at the New Britain General hospital, is reparted to be resting very comfort. ably today. NOTICE.

Repairs to the town building now in progress will prove expensive, ac- cording to the plans that have been | made by the selectinen and the Town hall account this year will loom up large in the annual reports. For years but little was done to keep the building in shape and “the property had been allowed to depreciate great- Iv. d The structure was getting so bad | that something had to be done to keep it standing and for several days, plum- | bers, masons and carpenters have been repairing it. The progress made on the exterior has.not been sufficient to enable the painters to start their | part of the improvement. John .| Larson has the contract for the work, | Henry O'Hara is looking after the | masenry and the Plainville Hardware company has charge of the plumbing | changes, After work on the exterior is fin- ished it is planned to make some im- provements inside. The rooms on both floors are badly in need of re- pairing and painting and the select- | men expect to lay out considerable money on the changes. | Send Out Contracts Soon. | The school hoard making prep- | arations to send out contracts to mem- | bers of the teaching staff in the local | schools who will be invited to re- turn here next year. The teachers have until the June meeting of the board to decide whether they will ac- cept a re-election. By making and living up to con. tracts with teachers, the board dur- ing the past few years, has had but little trouble in keeping the staff in- tact and but few vacancles had to be filled. The efficiency of the force, consequently has been materially im- proved. Principal Orrin L. Judd has been giving excellent satisfaction as head of the schools and he will deubtless receive an invitation to remain. Brief Ttems.

Cleveland, O., May 12.—The con- vening of the world court congress here this afternoon for a three-day session is at the “Psychological mo- ment,” according to officers of the congress. “The part America as a neutral will play in the fina] settlement of the war will' be important,” said John Hays Hammond, chairman. “If the United States, as the mutual friend of the warring nations, is able to point the way to an effective international court of justice, there is every reason to believe the belligerents will be willing to accept it. ““The object of thi€ congress is, first to arouse the American public to a consciousness of the possibilities in such a tribunal and, second, to de- velop an insistent demand for it. The time is ripe."” If preliminary plans are carried out the congress will take no steps that would gain for it the name of “Peace Congress.” The Lusitania incident will be ignored, and means for end- ing the war will not be discussed.
