That a serious accident did not happen at the Selden bridge on the Rocky Hill road yesterday afternoon is considered marvelous. The Rocky Hill authorities are placing a coating of tar on the roads and the last load was being taken from the Meriden | Gas company vesterday. The driver of the heavy truck evidently thought the Selden road would be shorter than the much traveled route and accord- ingly took the former. The truck | was heavily loaded and weighed prac- tically twenty tons. The Selden bridge is of waoden construction and | was unable to withstand the heavy | weight and the machine crashed through the flooring and was prec tated into the brook. The structure was badly damaged and it will prob- Bbly take several days before it can be used safely again. Fortunately the driver and his assistant escaped fjury by jumping. It was necessary to secure the heavy derrick of the Brazel company of Middletown to zet the motor truck back on terra firma this morning. Dr. Griswold Explains, No little criticlsm was made by local republicans yesterday when it became known that Dr. R. M. Gris- wold and Louis Anderson, delegates tc the republican conventior in New Maven, had cast their votes for Wrank E. Healy for the gubernatorial ngmi- nation. It developed later, however, that Berlin was not in the bandwagon, due to its delegates casting their bal- lots for Healy. It is said that two prominent members of the party who were present at the convention in the eapacity of spectators, remonstrated whth Dr. Griswold and Mr. Anderson for their switching from Holcomb to | ballot. ovel Healy after the informal Many republicans are indignant the delegates’ action, Dr. Griswold was asked ta state his | leasons this morning and said: “As requested by the local caucus, we cast oyr first ballot for Governor Hol- comb. With Healy in the lead, we thought the fight wauld lic between him and Dennis E. Blakesicc of New Haven. It appeared to us that Gover- For Holcomb did not have a chance and realizing the local antipathy for the New Haven man. we switched to Flealy, not that we loved him nrfre an Holcomb, but because InTica- tions pointed to a big drive for Bhakeslee.” Paralysis on the Wane, Doctors Thompson and Freemgn of DELIVERY FOR.

It has not yet been passible to trace any of the cases which have occurred in this lucality to the source of infection but Doth the local health officers and the Washington officials state that in their cpinion the epidemic is on the wane, end that from this time on the danger of infection will le less. Many measures of precaution have been taken by the local health officer for the protection of the children which the public do not generally know of, and if people will taKe his advice and keep their children off the siTeets, there will be very little dan- ger. In any event the percentage of chance of any glven child contracting the disease is about one in one thou- sand. Republican Caucus Tonight. The republican caucus for the nomi- nation of town officers will be held this evening in the Town hall at 8 o’clock. A quiet caucus is expected, there being but one contest scheduled. Willlam H. Gibney has consented to jun again for first selectman. His strongest apponent will be Judge Wwillard I. Alling. It is said Judge Alling has corralled many vates during the past few days and a hot contest between the two will be staged. Rumor also has it that R. O. Clark of Fast Berlin and George Carter have many followers, but it is not thaught cither will have strength enough to compete with Gibney or Alling. No contests are expected over the other town offices. Democratic Caucus Monday. Notices have been posted about town for the coming democratic town caucus, which will be held in the town hall Monday evening at 8 The eyes of all Wilson’s fol- lowers are fixed on the G. O. P. caucus this evening the result of which will probably determine their selection for a candidate for first selectman. Among the possible nom- inees for that position are L. A. West- cott of East Berlin, John A. Moore and George W. Sullivan of Kensington and John T. Molumphy of Berlin. According to a prominent democrat, “everything is not serene in the re- publican ranks. The displeasure ex- pressed over the action of the state convention delegates and the fact that the Gibney-Alling contest will probably cause a split in their ranks, makes me feel as though this will be our year.” o’clock. iss Hali. was tendered Shower For N Miss Lillian Hall | miscellanecous shower at the home of Miss Irenc Gibbs by thirty of her friends last evening.

ARIS NAILSETS ARE TO BE REMOVED the held Plan Is to Transfer Them to Outskirts Of French Capital Near For- tifications, (Correspondence of the Asso. Press.) Paris, Aug. 26.—The municipal council of Paris is considering a prop- osition for the removal of the “Halles” -—Central Markets—from the center of the city to the outskirts, along the line of the present fortifications. The great wall of Paris, with moats and casemates was destruction after its usele: demonstrated in 1870-71. Its disap- pearance will leave a . broad space available for all kinds of public im- provements, its doomed to ss was including parks, play grounds, sporting arenas and hboule- vards. A new hospital to replace the Beaujon hospital will be erected near the Neuilly scction and farther north and east, In close proximity to the Saint Martin's canal, it is suggested, a location can be provided for the markets where they can be reached di- rectly by water and rail, reducing by more than half the cost of rehandling the provisions of Faris. The future “Falr of Paris,” to be organized somewhat on the lines of the recent “Lyons Fair,” may, also, be located on the site of the fortifica- tions. It is proposed to build an e position palace, reserved more clally for industry and commer art which finds its place in the Grand Palais, and the favorite sites are the emplacement of the fortifications near sspe- the Porte Maillot or the Porte d’Au- | teuil, e than | 'Plainviile News | | | | FOR NEXT FRIDAY Republicans to Meet Here to Nom- inate Senatorial Candidate "Condell and Rogers Regarded . as feading Candidates — Make Up Town Ticket Next Tuesday—Busi- ness Men’s Outing September 30. Delegates from the various towng which comprise the fifth senatorial district will gather in the Town hall here next Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock to decide the contest for the republican nomination for senator, ac- cording to the announcement made today by Charles T. Treadway of Bris- tol, the district'’s representative on the state central committee. The cal]l for this session has been awalted with oconsiderable interest for some time as there has been much specula- tion as to who will be named for the senatorial berth. Candidates for the ncmination have had little or nothing to say publicly regarding the progress made in their campaign and no predictions regard- ing the outcome of the convention have been vouchsafed. Local repub- licans are living in the hope that after years of effort they are to be given recognition by the other towns in the district, Plainville getting the much-sought nomination. only candidate seems to be A. . Condell who has tried unsuccessfully several times to achieve a long felt ambition to obtain a seat in the sen- ate. Other towns have won the majority of the delegates at previous conven- tions .and there is a disposition on the part of the leaders in some places to look with favor this year on Plainville’s bid for the nomination. The town has always rolled up a sub- stantial republican vote and has been in a large measure responsible for the district’s adherence to the G. O. P. Nevertheless it has been ignored when the rewards of political service were being distributed. Mr. Condell's strongest opponent, according to party leaders in other parts of the district, is Elijah Rogers of Southington, who has also been a candidate on ,mcre than one occa- sion Mr. Rogers is sald to have stepped down without a contest two Years ago that the nomination of Mar- tin E. Plerson might go through un- opposed and it was explained that for hig action, the Southington man was promised the place this year. It is on the strength of this promise that the Southington republicans are building hopes for the success of their candidate. Although Berlin Is reported to be anxious to get the nomination for Claude W. Stevens of that town, the opinion prevalls here that the con- test is really between Condell and Rogers. Mr. Stevens has served the district in the senate and while his record was one of which he has rea- son to be proud it is belleved that some of the other towns are deserv- ing of recognition and the nomination will go elsewhere. Have Outing September 30. The annual fall outing of the Busi- ness and Improvement assoclation will be held at Lake Compounce on Sat- urday, September 30, according to a report presented to the board of di- rectors at their regular meeting last evening. The arrangements are in the hands of F. T. Wheeler and he is making plans for a most enjoyable affair. It was originally expected that the affair would be held earlier than the 30th but that was the only Saturday on which the. assoclation could secure the privileges of the re- sort. Many important matters were talked over by the directors last night and the session was a most interest- ing one. The problem of housing out-of-town people who have come here to work continues to recelve the attentlon of the association. There is a scarcity of vacant tenements and a number of the employes of local fac- tories havg to commute daily. In an effort to relieve the situation the as- soclation has announced its willing- ness to co-operate with the owners of dwellings and their tenants as well. Property holders who have vacant tenements or people who have rooms to rent or are willing to accommodate barders may communicate with Sec- retary F. L. Benzon and through him an effort will be made to make the demand and supply more equal. The directors were advised that the Bristol and Plainville Tramway com- pany is nearing the completion of the { gas main extension on Broad street and as soon as the work is done the laying of pipe on East Main street ill be started. Through the association’s efforts there will be a lecture in the Town hall on September 19 by a repre- sentative of the Natlonal Manufac- turers’ association who will speak on “Industrial Preparedness.” The lec- ture will' be open to the public and no adm on will be charged. The speaker will discuss the vari- ous phases of the industrial situation and will treat in a broad way the re- dation of industry to the welfare of the individual. He will gilve the manufacturers' side of many questions and will make an effort to show that The town’s { CALLS CONVENTION 2 S, Hills & HARTFORD Agents for 00 Standard Patterns “The Store of Superior Values.” Hartford Sitk Store Established 1832.
