Commissioner Rossberg is in charge of the inspection end of the program, which includes = trip to Burlington and a sight of all the property and development work for the water de- partment in that region. The trip will be by automobile and thus far : sixty have signified intention of go- ing. Tt will be a Journey well worth taking not to mention the spread at Compounce on the return. New Britain owns nearly 2,000 acres in Burlington, which abounds in moun- tain and valley, deep gorges and fresh mountain streams. The route will take the visitors through Farmington village, which at this season of the vear is one of the most beautiful country towns to be found in the Union. Thence the party | will journey to Unionville, Cherr; Park and Collinsville to Nepaug. At Nepaug the extensive water works of the city of Hartford will be inspected. Following a fine new road built by the Hartford water department, the route will lead past the new dam at Nepaug and to Bunnell's farm, where it is : proposed to build the giant dam to hold back the waters of Burlington brook, which is eventually to be New Britain’s mainstay in times of drought. Mr. Rossberg will conduct a person- al tour of New Britain's acreage in Burlington and returning towards Whigville, the inspection will cover the line of the proposed tunnel and finally the Whigville reservoir. The next stage will be the journey to Lake Compounce where dinner will be served. It is planned to have an orchestra to furnish music for the diners The menu as planned is as follows: Crab meat cocktail, olives, pickles, clam chowder, saltines, baked halibut, potatoes natural, broiled na- tive chicken, mashed potatoes, green peas, mixed salad with French dress- ing, ice cream, cakes, coffee. In the way of sports, a baseball game be- tween teams representing the council and the city engineering department is planned. Those who seek other di- versions are offered howling, rowing, foot racing and other sports. ile Constable Winkle was eject- firs. Dora Jones from her home day afternoon as instructed by er M. D.

HICKINSON DRUG CO., w5 MAIN STREET MAN N §1,000 BAIL Seven Year 01d Girl Prefers Seri- ous Charge Against Gaspara Joseph Gaspara of 39 Franklin street, 40 years old, is being held in bonds of $1,000 for the September term of the superior court on a charge of indecent assault upon seven year old Katie Sanko, daughter of Metro Sanko of 39 Franklin street. He pleaded not guilty before Judge James T. Meskill in police court this morning, but three of the little girl's playmates testified that they were witnesses to the assault. On Monday night Metro Sanko complained to Sergeant T. M. Herting that Gaspara had assaulted his daugh- ter and Sergeant George Kelly was detailed to investigate. With Officer Frank Moore he arrested Gaspara at 12:30 o’clock this morning The little girls who testified to the assault were, Selma Petuszkis, 10; Susie Adamovich, 10; and Elizabeth Koloski, 9. Arrested Omnce Before. Records at police headquarters show that on February 4, 1915, Gas- para was sentenced to three months in jail for another offense. The man has a wife and two children in the old country. Automobile Man Fined. Thomas Jefferson Kelley of Hart- ford was fined $2 without costs for violating city ordinance by leaving his automobile in the restricted dis- trict on Main street for three hours vesterday afternoon for more than five minutes. Kelley pleaded ignor- ance of local ordinances. He said that when he stopped his car he shouted to Officer Lamphere and asked how long he was permitted to leave his car there. The officer held up five fingers to signify five minutes, but Kelley misunderstood the sign and thought he meant the time was unlimited. Other Cases. Among the other cases today was that of Otto Hess, fined $10 and costs for drunkenness and previous proba- tion was revoked. Hess is the man who assaulted Constable Fred Winkle yesterday. John Mooney, a civil war veteran, and Daniel George were both sent to Jjail for ten days on a charge of va- grancy. MISCELLANEOUS SHOWER. Miss Fannie Thompson Given Recep- tion By Her Young Lady Friends. A miscellaneous shower was ten- dered Miss Fannie Thompson by the girls of the Minor & Corbin Box com- pany at her home at 408 Arch street last evening in honor of her approach- ing marriage to Edward Madden. She was the recipient of many beautiful and useful gifts. There were piano selections ren- dered by the Misses May Donlon and Cecilia Burkhardt, and solos by Miss Mary Burkhardt and Margaret Bas- sett. A feature of the evening was a mock marriage wherein Mae Thomp- son was the bride, Helen Nealon was the groom, Stella Palmer the brides- maid, and Evangeline Burgess was t man. The wedding march was plaved by Miss Mary Egan. A buffet lunch was served. BUILDING ON THE JUMP. That new construction work is tak- ing a decided jump was shown yester- day when Building Inspector A. N. Rutherford issued three permits for buildings totaling in value $85,000. As reported in The Herald vesterday, Landers, Frary & Clark took out a permit for the erection of a faotory on Center street to cost $30,000. The A. D. Clifford company secured a permit for a $5,000 addition to the residence of E. Allen Moore at Sunny Ledge, and Wexler & Stein took out a per- mit for a new block on Main street for George Levine of Hartford. This building will be 62 by 150 feet and will contain three stores, four tene- ments and fifteen offices. The esti- mated cost is $50,000. AND QUIGLEY. Ex-Tax Collector Wants to be Mayor's Running Mate for Legislature. Ex-Tax Collector Howard M. Steele, | who last spring joined forces with | Mayor Quigley and labored hard to | re-elect the mavor, is now an avowed | candidate for representaive. In this matter he has apparently taken his | cue from the mavor, who some time | ago announced that he would like to serve a term in the lower house. Mr. Steele claims that he is being strongly urged by his political friends to be the mayor’s running mate next November and thus far they have the fleld alone as no other candidates have yet appeared on the horizon.

"W 'd GPUB WY L "/Jleq SBuaNa] OM) BKey O STEELE QUESTIONS DETECTIVE'S STATUS Is Evidently Opposed to Giving Sergeant Bamforth An Assistant The meeting of the board of public safety last evening went according to schedule and the only thing not the program occurred when Commis- sioner Howard M. Steele questioned the status of Officer Andrew J. Rich- ardson, now doing detective duty, and likewise questioned the right of the chief of police to appoint a n assistant to Detective Sergeant uel Bamforth. Chairman Babcock informed Com- missioner Steele that his belief is that Officer Richardson is detailed to do this work only temporarily. He said that the detective work is not made public and consequently there is a lot more to do than people realize. It is to help clear up some of these mat- ters that he has been detailed. “Does the detective sergeant make daily reports of his work?” asked Commissioner Steele. “Yes, he does,” replied the chair- man. “Have vou ever seen any and do you really think that he needs an as- sistant at this time?” “Yes,” replied the chairman, “I have seen the reports and T really do think he needs an assistant for the present.” “Well, before such a position is permanently filled 1 think the board ought to be better informed on the matter to see if it is really needed. Of course it is nice for any one to have istant but -’ commented Comm oner Steele. He also sub- mitted the detailed report of work that the Hartford sergeants must make out, but w advised that the local officer does a similar thing. “Well, it's a pretty easy thing to do to ask for an assistant,” conclud- ed the new member of the board. McConkey Gets Pension, Pension of $100 per year was granted Callman James McConkey who has been in the fire department over twenty-five years and who asked a pension of $450 on grounds that he was disabled while on duty. Chair- man Babcock could find no proof that he was disabled while on duty, 0 the above action, in accordance with the regulations, was taken. The pension is to date from January 18, when he last did active duty. Supers To Be Paid Frequently. After some discusslon, a motion put by Commissioner Steele providing that all supernumerary policemen be paid semi-monthly as are the regulars was referred to the chairman, who was in- structed to go before the council and ask that an ordinance change per- mitting this be drafted. Heretofore the supernumeraries have been get- ting paid only every month. Regulations permitting traffic po- licemen to have every other Sunday off were also approved. New Supers Named. The following new supernumerary policemen were named: ‘W. F. Richardson, No. street; D. J.
