" Beriin News JOIN KENSINGTON AND NEW BRITAIN Hardware City Appoints Commit- tee to Confer on Matter Republican Town Committee Holds | Banquet and Maps Out Campaign— %hat the annexation of Kensington to New Britain, a matter which has been agitated by public spirited citi- gens for the past tep years, may be- come a fact during the next year is the belief of many today as the result of the action of the charter revision | committec in New Britain last night in’ extending a virtual invitation to Kensington to consider the matter. Kensington is in need of just such ad- vantages and improvements as ‘New Britain alone can offer and the pro- gressive citizens of the former place [have long recognized this fact. Two yeaws ago an attempt was made to oring it about, but New Britain didn’t eet the proposition as it was hoped. ow, however, there is a change of gentiment and the present charter re- sion committee is going to give the gubject some real cousideration. It as pointed out last night that Ken- ngton needs water service and fire protection. The village is fast devel- | pping along the lines of its larger and ore progressive neighbor to the orth and its Interests lic with New Britain rather than with the more ral community of Worthington. Nearly seventy years ago Berlin was et off from New Britain for just the | fame reason that is now forcing Ken- | fington to seek similar relief. Ken- | fington is essentially a manvfacturing ! ommunity, having fine railroad and | alley facllities and within the next en years with any kind of encourage- ent will naturally merge with New fritain which has practically = de- eloped to its present southern boundary and needs extra territcry. On the other hand New Britain has omething to gain by the unity of the wo, places. Berlin junction possesses ne of the finest railroad connections 0 be found in this section of the state nd before long the railrcad company yill undoubtedly develop its lines in his territory, making it mere advan- ageous for the establishizent of man- pfacturing concerns along the rail- oad frontages offered. Railroad rontage is getting scarce in the Hard- vare City, practically ev foot of antage now being occupicd. The in- rense of factories will come oniy with ity improvements such as city water, adequate fire protection, gocd streets, ewers, etc. Unity with New Britain will give hese advantages to Kensington and Ren will come the factories, making or this enterprising village an in- Tease of wealth and general prosperi- | | should not be neglected or frowned at by narrow minded citizens. As a mat- ter of fact it is well known that many of Kensington’s most progros\sive resi- dents are willing to meet New Britain more than half way in this project and will undoubtedly appoint a committee to confeér with the New Britain charter revision committee that the long hoped for.end may be attained with- out loss of time. 4 East Berlin. “Vet” Honored.

Leaves With Partner’s Money. Frank Oliver, better known as “Daredevil’” Oliver, reported to Officer William Ritchie and Constable John J. Hackett yesterday tkat his partner Willlam Barton left towr while he was attending to some business in Ken- sington, taking some of his possessions including $2 in cash. Oliver, who is a high diver, performed at the fair last. week but has been staying in Berlin since awaiting an engagement. | Oliver informed the officers that Bar- ‘t(m makes his home in Brooklyn, N. , and way. tigated. undoubtedly is bound that The complaint is belng inves- John Eddy. of Mrs. John Eddy, Wwho dled Wednesday at her home at Dz.xlton, Mass,, following a shock, were laid at rest at 2 o’clock this afternoon.

Fall campaigning for the election of republican officers at the coming | election was put into full swing last evening at a republican banquet at the Grange hall. The republican town committee and a few select republi- cans were invited to be present. Wil- liam H. Webster, chairman of the republican town committee, presided. Each district of the town was taken up separately and plans were mapped out. It was rumored this morning that the meeting had been called by Judge Willard I. Alling, republican nominee for first selectman. This was emphatically denied by Mr. Web- ster, who sald that he had personally called the session as he thought that this would be the hest way to get the committee together and have the work for the town and national elec- tions started. New Britain is coming to Ken- ington and by the actlon of the harter revision committee is now ex- ding an invitation to join which Among those present were ex-Sen- ator Claude W. Stevens, Charles John- son, R. O. Clark, Jason M. Taylor, George Alling, Judge Willard I Al- ling, P. J. Mueller, Oscar Benson, Frank N. Bacon and George Deming. The selectman, registrar and town clerk will be in session at the town hall tomorrow to make voters. Eighty c_andidates have signified their inten- tions “to be made.” During the next few weeks this town will witness some hot campaign- ing. The republicans will make a strong attempt to carry the town as they have done in past years. The democrats, on the other hand, pre- dict a democratic victory, and that their candidate for first Norman L. Beckley, will be the selectman, State and Military Tax Announced. Tax Commissioner Willlam H. Cor- bin of Hartford yesterday announced that the apportionment for the state tax for Berlin will amount to $3,- 357.22 and that the military tax will total $410.80. This is payable on or before November 10. Failure to pay the sums within the time stipulated will mean an interest of 9 per cent. a year from date the amount becomes due until final payment is made. The tax is apportioned in propor- tion to the total revenue received from Berlin from direct taxation as averaged in three years. Hold Last Meeting. The selectmen of the town held their last meeting of the year yester- day. Final business to come up be- fore the board was transacted and a clean slate is now left for the new board. William H. Gibney, who for the past fourteen years has been the first selectman of the town, attended his last meeting. Berlin Briefs. Mrs. M. A. Tryon of Kensington is spending a few days with relatives in New Haven. Mr. and Mrs. S. Crisie and daughter of Brooklyn, N. Y. who have been spending the summer with Mrs. Sam- uel McCrum of East Berlin, will leave for their home tomorrow. John Hart of Kensington has re- turned from his vacation spent in New Hampshire Charles Risley, who has been spend- ing the summer at his bungalow on Talcott mountain, was in town today. Miss Virginia Root of East Berlin, who has been visiting with relatives at Racine, Wis.,, during the summer, returned home yesterday. Milton Gaines of East Berlin entered Morse Business college Hartford. has at A birthday party was tendered to Max Sugenhime of East Berlin on ‘Wednesday. Mr. Sugenhime 1is the | ticket agent at the Berlin depot. The socialist candidate for governor will give an address this evening in East Berlin. The autamobile club of Hartford is making arrangements to place signs at the dividing line on the trunk line highways between each town in Hart- ford county. The signs will be placed on the southern and eastern border in Berlin to direct travellers. The signs will be forty-two by eight inches and will be placed on four-inch posts, ten feet from the ground. FOUND—Bicycle, almost new. Owner can have same by proving property and paying charges.

Certificates of health in addition to evidence that they have been in town for ten days and have not been ex- posed to infantile paralysis Will be pupils in the New Britain High school before they | will be admitted to their classrooms at the beginning of the fall term next The board of health of the Hardware City Insists on compliance with these regulations and the sev- enty local children who will attend the High school will have to sget doctor’s certificates. The regulations are considered peculiar here in view of the fact that the town has had but one case of the dread d ase while eight children in New Britain have been affilicted with it. If Plainville is to give New Britain assurance that it ‘will not carry_the disease to New Britain, local pcopg believe the neighboring city shoull offer some guarantee that Plainville children will not become infected while at school. The situation as regerds a threat- ened epidemic of infantile paralysis here is entirely satisfactory to Health Officer Bull. Rhinehardt Zabel, the only youngster in Plainville to con- tract the malady, shows almost daily improvement. While the child, when first affected was completely paralyzed from his hips up, he appears to have regained the use of all his muscles and is gaining strength steadily. He is still confined to the bed but in a few days it is thought he will be able to get about and the attending physicians are hopeful that he will have normal use of his limbs. ‘While the state boarc of health has suggested that quarantine be kept for a period of six weeks, Dr. Bull be- Heves it will be possible to remove restrictions from the home of C. H. Calor, where the patient is confined, within a few days. Mr. and Mrs. Calor were released from quarantine last week after all their clothing was thoroughly fumigated and they are now living with neighbors. Claims of incorrect dlagnosis in the case have been made by a number of laymen and the theory has been of- fered that instead of having infantile paralysis the Zabel child suffered from a sunstroke. The doctors, however, report that all the symptoms of in- fantile paralysis were noticed in him. That the town has not had more than a single case so far is undoubt- edly due in a large measure to the care exercised by the health officer who took every precaation to prevent its spread. In his efforts Dr. Bull had the co- operation of many of the townspeople who made an effort to live up to the rules. Others, however, were not so considerate. Almost daily for weeks the health officer received numerous calls from people who wanted permis- slon to take their children out of town to the ‘“movies,” fairs and other assemblages. “Doctor, can't I take my Johnnie to the ‘movies’ this after- noon,” was a query frequently made WomEN'S STOMACH TROUBLES The Great Woman’s Medi- cine Often Just What Is Needed. We are so used to thinking of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound as a remedy exclusively for female ills that we are apt to overlook the fact that it isone of the best remedies for disorders of the stomach. For stomach trouble of women it is especially adapted, as it works in com- plete harmony with the female organ- ism, since it contains the extracts of the best tonic roots and herbs. It tones up the digestive system, and increases the appetite and strength. Here is what one woman writes showing what this medicine does : — Newfield, N. Y.—“I am so pleased to say I can recommend Lydia E. Pinl bham’s Vegetable Compound as an eco- nomical and beneficial remedy in most ailments pertaining to women. At least I found it so by only taking two bottles. I had indigestion in a bad form and I am now feeling in the best of health and owe it all to Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.””— Mrs. BURR WILLIAMS, R.D.No.29, New- field, N.Y. Many women suffer from that ““all | gone feeling,”” and ‘‘feel so faint,’” while doing their work. Ten chances to one their digestive system is all out of order. A tablespoonful of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound after | each meal should completely remedy this | condition in a few days, The Hartford Siilk ' Store Established 1832. SUITS SPECIAL FOR ..

The doctor invariably gave permission but ad- vised against the plan resulting in many cases in the abandoning of the theater trip, There have been parents who kept their children almost entirely at home, even going so far as to keep them away from other children that the efforts of the health cofficer to keep Plainville safe might bear fruit. At the same time their neighbors brought their youngsters to every conceivable satherings in nearby towns and, re- turning endangered the safety of chil- dren whose parents were living up to the rules. The situation increased the health officer’s worries and for weeks he has been kept exceedingly bu, He has displayed efficiency and sound judg- ment in his actions and if Plainville manages to escape any additional out- breaks of the disease it will be a per- sonal victory for him. May Run Birdseye. Thomas B. Atwater of Southington, chairman of the district committee, is planning to send out ta the delegates notice of the democratic convention which will be held in Plainville, prob- ably the latter part of next week. The session will name the candidate for scnator to run against Elijah Rogers of Southington, the republican nomi- nee. Among leading democrats the sug- gestion that A. Birdseye ot Tarming- ton be named is being given serious consideration. Mr. Birdseye is not a candidate for the place, but it is crally believed he can be pers to make the Tun. He returned to the Cemocratic party from the progres- sives, and it is thought that he would receive the support of the Roosevelt followers. Ex-Mayor James Cray of Bristol, whose name has been mentioned in connection with the nomination, de- clareas that he is not a candidate. Mr. Cray would make an excellent show- ing at the polls if nominated although chances of electlon would be slim in view of the overwhelming plural- ity which the republicans h™ in the aistrict.
