In the inter- view with Commissioner Bennett, Se- lectman Gibney pointed out the trou- ble that will be experienced with traf- fic, that will soon be pouring over the highway to the state fair, with the road closed. In answer to the protest Commis- sioner Bennett paid a visit to the structure and gave the local selectmen assurance that he would see that the delay would be remedied. He in- structed Mr. Gibney to have the Rocky Hill and Beckley roads, which are at present used as a detour, thoroughly repaired and charge the expenses to the state. As soon as weather is per- missible Selectman Gibney stated this morning that he would put a gang of men on the road and have it in first class condition before the opening of the fair. i | Registering Voters. | Registrars Joseph J.

Skidding on the wet pavement and whirling about like a spinning top, a Ford jitney owned and driven by Harry J. Donahue of Plainville came to grief while returning with a load of passengers from Bristol about 3:45 c’clock Sunday morning. The acei- dent happened near Forestville. The machine was badly damaged and Donahue, Richard McCafferty of this town and Raymond Messenger of Forestville, who had ridden with Donahue from Bristol, were thrown | out and injured. Cafferty was the most severely injured, receiving a | fracture of the thigh. Donahue’ left collar bone was broken and Mes- | senger suffered a scalp wound, Help soon arrived and the injured were taken to the office of Dr. B F. Donahue in Forestville, After giving first aid, Dr. Donahue called the automobile ambulance owned by T. P. O'Brien in Bristol and had Caf- ferty and Donahue taken to St. Fran- *cis hospital in Hartford. Donahue returned to his home in the ambu- lance after receiving treatment for his injured shoulder. Donahue left Plainville with his jitney after midnight with passen- gers for Bristol and after discharging them was returning when he met Cz ferty and Messenger on their way home. He proceeded to give them a lift and had reached the curve near the spring on Broad street when the accident happened. The damaged automobile was taken to Cooke’s garage for repairs. From appearances it will be considerable of a job. The wind shield was shat- tered as were the headlights. Both mud guards were damaged, the rad- iator stove in and one axle sprung. New Britain Autos Collide. Blossom’s corner was the scene of a head-on collision between two New Britain automobiles late Saturday afternoon E. M.

The Ford car struck Egan’s running hoard head on and damaged it, but the lighter Ford met more | severe injury. The headlights were broken and the radiator damaged. Mr. Egan was baund for Waterbury with his sister, Mrs. Anna Hayes, who had only recently left a hospital. She saw the imnending accident and stood up with the result that when the collision occurred, she was thrown out and scratched about the fore- head. Dr. J. C. Tanner was called to attend her. Mr. Egan's car was in running condition and he returned to New Britain, abandoning the jour- ney to Waterbury. Bridal Couple In Error. Justus Louis Reedler and Miss Es- ther Clara Hultene obtained a mar- riage license from Town Clerk Usher Saturday morning but made the mis- take if tryving to usg it in New Brit- ain. They called on Rev. G. E. Pihl of New Britain Saturday night, but as soon as he saw the license had been issued in Plainville, he informed them the ceremony would have to be performed in this town. How- ever the Hardware City minister obligingly agreed to accompany the couple to Plainville and tie the marital knot. Walter Rodeler, brather of the bridegroom, was best man, and Miss Annie Hultene, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid. Candidate for Selectman. William C. Hart, the man, had definitely announced . his candidacy for selectman. Mr. Hart has carefully considered the situa- tion and has received words of as- surance from many friends and quite a number of voters of apposing po- litical faith that they will stand by him if he can gain the republican nomination. Mr. Hart has been a constable in town for many years and also served as deputy sheriff. He feels that he is in a position and has the ability to give the town gaod s vice and will fight the issue to a finish . Roger wan | Brief Items. James J.
