R. “Dy- namite” Jones has decided not to ac- cept the offer from the DuPont pow- der people, which was reported in vesterday’s news. Mr. Jones' business has been on the increase for the past few months and he has enough orders on hand to keep him busy for some time to come in the immediate vicin- ity. He has contracts in several of the surrounding towns and cities, which prevent his accepting the flat- tering offer of the New York concern. ‘When he has finished these con- tracts, he will give a demonstration on a ditch between Meriden and Walling- ford withe the DuPont product. That company will dig a ditch 5,000 feet long, five feet wide and four feet deep. This is the largest job of its kind in New England. Mr. Jones will do the work on 200 feet as a demon- stration of his ability. The news that he has decided to remain here was received with delight about town this morning. Child Badly Burned.

The fair is scheduled to close tonight, although it is possible that it may be continued until Mon- day for the drawing of prizes. ot in years have the firemen had a fair giving promise of such success ag tkat which is now in progress. Mem- bers of the Hose company were jubi- lant today over the prospects and they telieve that the profits will be un- usually large. The firemen's treasury is now very low and the fair is ex- pected to strengthen it materially. The company is anxious to have some improvements made in its parlors and the profits realized from the fair will probably make them possible. Delegations of firemen from Union- ville, Southington, Bristol and Forest- ville attended last evening and con- tributed considerable towards re- plenishing the company’s coffers. The canvassers and booth tenders had a big night and they turned over a rich harvest of coins to the committee. During the evening Chief M. A. Norton expressed the thanks of the cempany for the patrcnage given the fair and spoke in an appreciative vein of the liberality shown by those in at- tendance. An excellent entertainment was fur- nished by the Girls'’ Harmony min- strels of Southington. The young 1. dies acquitted themselves creditably, both as singers and gloom chasers and their efforts to please met with en- thusiastic applause. The local hits were greatly enjoyed. The program tonight is to be fur- nished by talent from New Britain. It will be a potpourri of music and comedy contributions. Visitors from several towns in this vicinity are ex- pccted to attend tonight. Pootess Denies Report.
