Berlin News _ Pt a s Sy MUCH INTEREST IN " NEW TROLLEY LINE Residents Wondering Which Road Will Be Used Here > KENSINGTON OR LOWER LANE | {Convert Will Be Given at Kensington ' Congregational Church Next Wed- ~ nesday—Trolley Guide Wire Falls —Other Items of Interest. There is much agitation in town lately regarding the newly formed $1,000,000 company which is to build a trolley line between Hartford and Meriden. According to Louis Fiske, ®f Branford, president of the Hart- ford, New Britain and Meriden Trol- ley company, which is the name of the corporation, the contemplated line will be laid as follows: Beginning in Meriden this new rail- way will run up State street to Camp, from Camp to Center street and from center to North Colony. There it will Min back of Maynard's Coffee house aleng under trest’e and on a privte right of way to Durkee’s corner along through Kensington. ‘It will enter New Britain on East street, and turn toward Hartford by way of Newing- ton on a private right of way. It will ¢ ter Hartford by way of Elmwood nd Prospect evenue. Now the thing that interests local people is what the route will be from Durkee’s corner through Kensington- There are two possibilities, one to come along the Lower Lane road to Bauer's place and the other along the Kensington road and over the sec- ond overhead. bridge by the Paper ods company’s plant and down Main street, Kensington. The president of the company said the full $1,000;000 in stock had been ! gubscribed and the officials elected i 'and that the work would. be started mext spring, but to the present-he has “pot said what route through Kensing- fon and Berlin would be. The residents the town are very anxious to know “ yme route, but no i"formation could bz slicited on that point. Another point that is causing consid- prable discussion is whether there will b, any objection fram the licnsing- ton, New Britain and Merid com- pany, which is composed of Messrs. Lewls and Hanford of Xensingtoa d B. Allen Moore of New Britain. l'%lls company procured a charter trom the legislature a year ago, but has done nothing in the construction of the line. Whether the proposed million dollar road will spur the con- cern on to action remains to be seen 1s the incorporators are reticent con- térning the affair. . . iy To Glve Concert.’ Arrangements gre heing made by jp members of the Kensington. Con- regationa] church for the musicale o be given by a company of Jubiles ingers from the Tuskegee Normal ynd Industrial Institute of Tuskegee: which will be- next Wednesday evening at 7:30 o’clock. Booker ™. Washington, wtro died Tuesday, was the founder and principal of the school. The singers are travelling over the country in the iuterest of the school of which they are graduates and tho Kensington Congregational church officers consider themselves very for- tunate In getting s date from the troup, as company generally appears only in the larger towns and cities. The program to be rendered con- sists of old fashioned rlantation mel- | odies, folk songs, :ialect readings and the . history or Tuskegee Institute. The men are a highly trained group of singers and there is no doubt that they will create a favorable impres- sion here. The school is the first ever con- ducted for the negro race and it stands as a monument to the most fa- mous negro this country has ever known, Booker T- Washington. .The plant of the school has grown since 1871 from a shanty to the point where it has 100 buildings large and small, 2,500 acres of land, and an improved lighting and water system. There are forty distinct trades taught there an- nually to more than 2,000 students by a faculty of 200 teachers and workers —all of them negroes. The concert under the auspices of the church will be free but an offering will be taken for the school. The re- cent death of Booker T Washington will not interrupt the work of the school. Trolley Wire Falls. ‘While driving along the Ridge near the end of the trolley line today, Wal- ter Gwatkin heard a crash at the rear of his wagon. The noise result- ed from the fall of a trolley guide wire and the trolley wire. Mr. Gwat- kin and H. H. Damon immediately re- moved the wire which was “live” and notified the Connecticut company’s officers The work car arrived here at 7:30 a. m., twenty-five minutes after the fall and soon fixed it. It was found that the wire had rusted and pulled from its socket. The feeling about town is the company should examine wires often for it is thought that lives may be lost if such an accident should occur during the night. Many Eat. The largest crowd that ever at- tended a similar affair in East Ber- lin gathered at the home of R. O Clark last night to consume the “eats” furnished by the women' of the t Berlin Methodist church. Ninety-five seats were sold and-every one present is loud in his praise of the bountiful repast. After the cinner games were enjoyed, and the old timers showed the young fellows * what is what” when it comes to'potato races and bean bag. Mr. Clark also came in for much commendation for allowing his home to be used for the affair but as one resident remarked, “Mr. Clark is al- ways doing something good for the town” so perhaps you ought not to mention that. A goodly sum was real- ized from the affair und the women of the church feel very gratificd. To Attend Rally. The entire Epworth League of the Kensington Methodist church is plan- ning to attend the rally of the New Britain group tomorrow night. The meeting will be held in Forestville under the auspices of the Forestville M. E. church and the local leaguers are going to make an cffort to retain the membership banner, so all mem- bers are requested to be present. Rev. John Lee Brooks, pastor of the South church, Middletown, will be the speaker of the evening. It is sug- #eated that all members take the 7:10 trolley at Upson's corner for New Britain. Briefs. Miss Gladys Sage is confined her home with a severe cold. A large crowd attended the con- cert given by the Shubert Quartet of Meriden in th Kensington Methodist church last night. The prog n was admirably rendered and the artists re- ceived much favorable comment. Mrs. C. O. Wilkins of Kingfield, Me., is visiting Miss Gertrude North of East Berlin. Mrs. E, O. Deane is ill at her home in Blue Hills. Owing to a typographical error, it was reported in last night's column that the town meéting would reim- burse Mr. and Mrs. E, O. Dean with $136 for collecting taxes, which were exempt- The amount was $36. to SCHOONER ARRIVES. Van Learblack Lost All Sails in Hur- ricane—Germans in Crew. New York, Nov. 18.—The schooner Van Learblack, which left Buenos Alres July 8, with a cargo of que- bracho wood for Stamford, Conn, ar- rived here today. The schooner en- countered a hurricane about Septem- ber 1, and lost.all sails and the jib- boom and put into St. Thomas, where she was held thirty-seven days awalt- ing new sails froni Philadelphia. Among the crew were two officers from a Hamburg-American Line steamer interned at St. Thomas. | They were tired of being idle, they said, and shipped on the schooner for New York, Gas In The Stomach Is Dangerous Physician Recommends the use of Magnesia. Sufferers from indigestion or dys- pepsia should remember that the presence of gas or wind in the stom- ach invariably indicates that the stomach is troubled by excessive acidity. Excessive acid causes the food to ferment and the fermenting food in ‘turn gives rise to noxious gases which distend the stomach, hamper the nor- mal functions of vital internal or- gans, cause acute headaches, and by pressure of the pnuemogastic nerve often sets up palpitation of the hear! A neglected acid stomach may be the' cause of impaired intestinal digestio which may 'in turn cause a general run down condition due to the ob- sorption of toxic material into the blood. To quickly dispel a dangerous accumulation of wind in the stomach and to stop the food fermentation which creates the gas, the acid in the stomach must be neutralized and for this purpose there is nothing better than plain bisurated magnesia taken in a little water immediately after meals. This instantly neutralizes the acid, thus stopping fermentations and the formation of gas, and enables the inflamed, distended stomach to pro- ceed with its work under natural conditions. The bisurated magnesia is obtainable in powder .or tablet form from any druggist; but as there are several forms of magnesia you should ask distinctly for bisurated magnes Take a teaspoonful of the powder in a quarter glass of wa- ter (or two of the tablets) after each meal, i | ognize his claim, RALD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1915. Plainville News e e e NEWTON ESTATE T0 TESTNEGRO'S CLAIM William Swan Wants Damages Under Compensation Law CHANDLER TO HEAR CASE Employers Assert Negro Went Work Within Ten Days After Ac- to eident—Former Resident Killed In Waterbury—Make Protest Tonight. Advancing the claim that because he returned to work within ten days after the accident, thereby forfeiting any rights he may have had under the employers’ liability act, the es- tate of F. B. Newton has refused compensation to William Swan, a well known negro character, and is pre- paring to submit its case to Com- missioner George B. Chandler. A hearing will be given on Swan's pe- tition for damages next Monday. The Newton estate, although em- ploying at times more than five per- sons, does not carry compensation insurance, and assumes responsibil- ity for claims that may be presented against it under the law. The ad- ministrator, F. L. Benzon, and the manager, W. A. Bailey, deny that Swan is entitled * to compensation awards and they have refused to rec- Swan was injured September 28th while assiting in fhe removal of bales of hay from a car at the freight house. He fell on the platform and he claims that as a result of the in- juries he geceived, he was laid up for some time. He explains that the accident occurred while he was in the employ of the estate. Mr. Bailey claimed this morning that Swan’s injuries were not of a serfous character and that the estate has evidence to prove that he was working less than ten days after his mishap. Even should the claimant have been laid up for a longer period the estate would refuse to accept lia- bility, according to Mr. Balley, as the accident was due to carelessness on Swan’s part. The negro, boasting of his strength and skill, attempted to show some other darkies working with him how easily he could toss around the bales. During the exhibi- tion the hook which he was using slipped and the negro tumbled to the | platform. The man had been drink- ing, it is said, although representa- tives of the estate admit that they cannot prove he was intoxicated at the time he was hurt. Dr. J. C. Tanner has been notifled to appear at the hearing to explain | the nature of Swan's hurts. He gave the injured man medical treatment at the time of the accident. Killed Tn Waterbury. Word has heen received here of the tragic death of Arthur Hardwick, a former resident of Plainville, which occurred in Waterbury Tuesday, fol- lowing an, accident at the plant of the Scoville Manufactyring company, where he was employed. Hardwick was struck by a beam which fell from a derrick in use at the factory and was so badly hurt that he died a short time after at the hospital His funeral was held yesterday. The young man lived in Plainville for some time and had many friends here. He was twenty-eight years of age and married. Bichloride Victim Comfortable. At St. Francis hospital this morn- ing it was reported that Miss Mary Galvin of Bristol, who took bichloride COMB SAGE TEA INTO GRAY HAIR A Mixture of Sage and Sulphur Dark- ens the Hair Beautifully and Evenl) Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound- ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,” you will get a large bot- tle of this famous old recipe for about 50 cents, Don't stay gray! Try it! can possibly tell that you your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap- plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy. No one darkened her life but they confess that they will be -unable to tell for a day or two what the results will be. Miss Galvin is nineteen years of age and is a daughter of Daniel Gal- vin. Make Protest Tonight. Court General Lawton, F. of A, will make formal protest tonight against the victory credited to Court Charter Oak of New Britain in the series of games in the ‘“‘forty-five” tournament played here last week. The local branch of the organization claims that one of the players on the visiting team was not eligible to play as he was not a member of the par- ticular court which the team repre- sented, although he is a Forester. Another series of games in the tour- nament will be played tonight in New Britain and the matter of disallowing the recent victory will be taken be- fore the committee in charge.

Th committee in charge of the soclal to be given in Grange hall to- morrow night by the Holy Name society of the Church of Our Lady of Mercy has arranged a program of vocal selections which will be given in connection with the affair.

THE ONE PIECE FROCK HAS COME TO STAY AWHILE of mercury tablets Monday by mise take, was resting comfortably. The crisis in her case had not been reache ed, however, and the hospital authorfe ties were unable to say what the oute come will be. Miss Galvin has friends in Plaine ville who are anxious about her cone dition. Mistaking the poison tablets for headache medicine, the girl took about five grains to relieve neuralgic pains from which she had been suffer- ing for some time: ‘When the mistake was discovered doctors were called in but they were unable to rid her system of the poison and Tuesday, her condition becoming worse, they ordered her removal to the hospital. The young lady is re- ported to be conscious and cheerful although she hovers between life and death. It takes several days for the poison to work through the system to a vital spot. Hence the uncertainty as to the outcome of the case. The doctors are working heroically to have DANGERS OF A COLD New Britain' People Will Do Well to Heed Them. Many bad cases of kidney trouble result from a cold or chill. Congest- ed kidneys fall behind in filtering the poison-laden blood and backache, headache, dizziness and disordered kidney action follow. Don't neg- lect a cold: Use Doan's Kidney Pills at the first sign of kidney trouble. Follow this New Britain’ resident's example: Mrs. John Lawson, 84 John street, New Britain, says: “My back and kidneys were weak and the trouble was always worse when I caught cold.
