As there are many industries of "that kind in this vicinity, the con- ¢ern is looking for a factory in the east, When interviewed this morning, | Mr. Anderson said he would inspect | the plant formerly occupied by the Hartford Burial Case company before | returning to Wisconsin. He has long been considering moving of his fac- togy_and feels Berlin would be an ideal place for his line on account of ts location and because of the many brick concerns hereabouts. The com- pany has installed machines in every state as far west as the Dakotas, but the major portion of ils orders comes from the east, so it will probably lo- cate in New England in the near fu-| tureé! The proprietor has received of- fers of land from .opringtield and Williamsett, Mass., but would prefer to come to Berlin because it is more central. Mr- Anderson said he would confer with the present owners in a few days for the purpose of buying the building. The Marinette Iron Wérks employs about 200 hands. Regarding the conveyers, Mr. An- derson says it is only a question of time when all the brickya:ds will be using them. He had several letters from different manufacturers praising the machines, the one of the most local lntere{;\t‘o local people being ithat of the anelly .

The members take different periodi- cals, containing current news and then discuss it at the gatherings. Mrs. T. B. Wickwire is the dent of the club. It is hoped the membership will be materially in- creased this year and all ladies of the town are invited to attend the meeting on next Monday. Simeone-Granda. John Simeone and Miss Granda were married at St. Roman Catholic church, at 9 o’clock, this morning, Rev. J. C. ‘Brennan, the pastor, officiating. The bride was attended by Miss Isabella Greko and Rafael Palumbo was best man. Aft- er a honeymoon trip the couple will reside in Kensington. Hallowe’en Pranks. Several remarks were heard about town Tuesday morning concerning the quiet manner in which Hallowe'en rassed. On the surface everything seemed to be as usual but subsequent investigation revealed that such is not the case. Signs were destroyed and mautilated and many townspeople have found useful articles missing. The prosecutor has received some complaints and unless the goods are returned in a short time it is prob- ahle there will be prosecutions. “In Every Land.” The Kanxi Camp Fire Girls working on the finishing touches for the play which they are to present in the Town hall temorrow night. play will be a demonstration of their work in different countries and will be performed in pantomime. The play has been written for the national as- sociation and will have its first pre- sentation in New England tomorrow. A large number of tickets has been =old and it is expected the hall will be filled when the curtain rises. The first scene will show a gather- ing of Camp Fire Girls from every country.

Gage’s family is left with but a small amount as a result of the hus- band’s untimely end, and his friends intend to make a strong effort to have the Carnegie fund assist in supporting them.

The place was recently purchased by McNally and Farrar, and the latt today transferred his interests to hi partner. : McNally conducts a garage on the property. A deed for the sale was recorded with the town clerk this morning. grave Selectmen to Meet. At the weekly meeting of the board of selectmen, to be held this evening, the matter of borrowing money to strengthen the town's depleted treas- ury, will be considered and it is ex- pected that the banks will be asked for a temporary loan to make possible the payment of bills until money due for taxes begins to pour in, Th town's purse is at the present time sadly fractured and there is no relief expected before spring. Con- sequently a loan will be required. The selectmen have to pay out $3,600 for state, country and military taxes be- fore November 10th and they will take up the borrowing question to- night. Except for slight repairs, Select- man Johnson has practically decid- ed to put off until spring the matter of making highway improvements. He seemingiy believes that the build- ing of road: at Westwood park or- dered by a recent town meeting can be done with better results in the spring and it is unlikely that t{h2 passways in that district will be given any attention until then. Small Increase Wanted. Motormen and conductors employ- ed by Bristol and Plainville Tram- way company declare that the peti- tion for an increase in the scale of wages does not mean a great deal (o the corporation and if granted, will cut its profits but little, The men have sent in a request to the officers that the minimum wage be 25 cents par hours and the maximum 30 cents and that an additional 10 cents per hour be given for overtime. The company recently voluntarily raised the scale to 24 cents for new men with a ma: imum wage of 29 cents. Nothing ex- tra was offered for overtime. While the men admit that they are the highest paid trolley hands in the state what they get extra is off- set by the company’s failure to make the additionl allowance for over- time, There are but twenty-four men regularly employed and as the in- crease asked for is but one cent an hour, they argue that it will mean RELIABLE REMEDY RESTORES KIDNEYS For many years watched with much interest the re- markable record maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kid- rey, liver and bladder remedy.

Open Fair Tonight. Members of the Hose company are expecting a large attendance at the opening of their fair in the Town hall tonight. The committee of arrange- ments reports a good sale of ticke and the interest taken in its plans in- tes that the patronage will be sat- isfactory. The entertainment tonight will be given by talent from New Britain. The Girls Harmony minstrels of Southing- ton will furnish the program tomor- row night and Satuiday night there will be a vaudeville show There will be dancing each evening after the entertainment, Fox's or- chestra furnishing the music Decorators at work trimming the hall for the fair. Night School Gains Six. But a gain of six in the registration was recorded last night when the sec- ond session of the evening school was held. rolled. Principal Judd believes that the small attendance is not due to lack of interest but is rather the result of a misunderstanding, a number of pros- pective pupils failing to report owing to their belief that they wil havée to pay for tuition. The town's appropriation made at a recent meeting is thought to be sufficient to cover the expense of the school for the winter and it is not be- lieved that contributions from the pu- pils will be required. Members of the school board are of the opinion, how- ever, that those henefitted by the school should help defray the expenses and voluntary donations will be ac- cepted. Principal Judd reported today that a number who were in attendance last night explained that taey have friends who are anxious to join the classes and within a week the registration will probably be doubled.
