He was inclined to scoff at | value of vaccination and spoke at e length against it. He thought ample time to talk about such when there was indication that disease had attacked New Britain, 'issue such a warning now, he , might cause undue alarm. Bodley replied to the chair- objections, in which he had that to his “layman’s view” the me of vaccination might be ques: ned, by saying that vaccination is reventative measure. Chairman lard interrupted to remark that was, possibly, the doctor's per- opinion and could be accepted e board members for what it was Dr. Bodley, however, insisted the medical profession had d the value of vaccination and .

He said he wished to avoid any possibility that in case a smallpox epidemic should unfortunately strike the ctiy the school board, any other board or the public might criticize the health board for not insisting that the vac- cination preventatives be adminis- tered. The board voted unanimously with the doctor. It was distinetly understood that this recommendation is not an insist- ent one and is not given to the school board in any mandatory manner, but simply to show that the health board is on the alert and exercises due care in preventing the spread of disease. In case the school hoard sees fit to accept the recommendation it will mean, under the state law, that no pupils can attend school who have not been vaccinated. Kunz Co. Gets Contract. Bids on the slaughter house cattle and horte shed for protection of an- imals were received as follows B. H. Hibbard company, $730; J. A. Carl- son, $627; and James Kunz company, §610. On motion of Dr. Bodley this board voted to recommend to the council that the contract be let to the lowest bidder, the John Kunz company. The J. O. Mills company bid $136 for installing a heating sys- tem at the slaughter house; W. R. Fenn' bid $40 for heating the office alone and Parker & O’Connor bid $133 for' heating the building. On motion of Dr. Bodley it was voted to recommend that the contract be let to the lowest bidder. Parker & O’Connor. Other Business. Chairman Tallard explained the Slater Hide and Tallow of Hartford, which, lege of a storehouse, offered to do the janitor work at the slaughter house, has asked for special privilege of being the sole bidder on all hides at the slaughter house. Corporation Counse! J. E. Cooper, in reply to a query, sent word to the board that while the board has ‘the right to award a monopoly, it would be wiser to advertise for bids for the exclusive right to bid for hides at the abbatoir. A flve year contract was suggested. The Later Hide and Tal- low company is now working at the slaughter house on a month’'s trial by his services saving the city over §$700 a year for janitor service. The company is doing excellent work at present, the inspector declared. On motion of Dr. Bodley the board will pursue the course outlined by the corporation counsel. Additional bills for this plumbing at the slaughter house were received and not entirely approved. The mat- ter was referred to Messrs. Burns gnd Quinlivan and they will attempt to get a reduction, as there was some question as to the manner in which the plans were carried out. Those present were Dr. T. E. Reeks, M. W. Davenport, Dr. Charles Witte, M. H. Camp, Dr. George H. Bodley, E. P. Burns and Chairman H. S. Tal- lard, Plumbing Inspector Thomas Quinlivan was also present. Resolu- tions on the death of Dr. Arvid And- erson were read and will be forward- ed to Mrs. Anderson. ————————————— NOT A PARTICLE OF DANDRUFF OR A FALLING HAIR that company for the privi- Save your hair!

John Becker, employe of the Traut & Hine Manu- facturing company, has the distinc- tion of being the exception to the gen- eral rule, caused a man hunt through the factory buildings shortly after midnight and-was found using one of the rooms as a hotel because, as he explained to Judge James T.

The technical charge was intoxication which cost him a fine of $3 and costs and the loss of, at least, half a day's 1. 2 Becker, it appeared from the testi- mony, was in the company of con- genial companions last night until it came closing time for the ‘“poor men’s clubs.” It was when he en- countered frosty night air that he decided to quietly get into the fac- tory building and sleep in a warm place until awakened by the 7 o’clock whistle. Unfortunately for him, the night fireman saw his dim form skulking through the boiler room, 1ecognized that it was no time for help “dock- is a fre- to come to work and notified Night Watchman Peter Lambert. Not knowing whether he had a spy or some. desperado to deal with, Lam- bert started a search and, finally, found Becker fast asleep in a side room on the fourth floor with a keg of emery against the door so as not to be disturbed. Becker was indig- nant over being disturbed but Lam- bert was taking no chances and ocalled for assistance from police headquar- ters. Policemen Michael Meehan and Gustave Hellberg were sent out and gave Becker a free patrol ride to a nice warm cell. Admits Theft of Clothing. Pleading guilty to the theft of clothing, valued at more than $35, from Charles S. Morehead of rear 59 Arch street, Sidney A. Fagan, col.- ored, of New York city. was fined $560 and costs at a continued hearing. Similar charges against his wife were nolled as it was testified that she knew nothing about the theft until the clothing was recovered in the baggage room at the New Haven rail- road station by Detective A. J. Rich- ardson. At the first hearing, both yleaded not guilty and stuck to their denial of any knowledge of it until the trunk containing the clothing was located. With this evidence, Detec- tive Sergeant Samuel Bamforth and Detective Richardson visited Fagan in jail and secured a confession. After court, Mrs. Fagan, a bride of less than six months, emphatically de- clared that she was through with the one whose name she bears, that sus- pected nothing until confronted with proof of his guilt and was glad that she had found him out this early. She expressed her intention of returning to her home in Guilford and was glad to get rid of Fagan. Reminded of her slx months of married life, she was emphatic that it was six months too much. Morehead apologized for having her arrested and insisted upon paying her railroad fare to Guilford. Fagan, in his defense, made a strong plea for leniency, said that he has a position in New York and does not know why he stole the clothing and would never do anything like that again. Since his marriage he had been working as a painter in the rail- road arcade until a short time before his arrest. With his wife, ke had lived at the Morehead apartments. POLICE AND FIREMEN TO GET THEIR RAISE Safety Board Also Orders That Shilt in Sergeants Mr. High Cost of Living, as advo- cate for regular members of the po- lice and fire departments, won out at last night’s special session of the safe- ty board, it being voted to recom- mend an increase in pay for both de- partments to the salary committee of the common council. The action fol- lows petitions from the members of both departments for the increase. The increase for the firemen is slight- v less than the fifteen per cent. in- crease petitioned for, the total amount of increase in pay for the firemen, under the proposed schedule, amount- ing to $6,872.05. The proposed increase for the po- licemen wlill be practically the ten per cent. asked and the total addi- tion to the payroll will amount to about $5,323.16. Under the arrange- ment decided upon there is a fourth grade created, an addition of one, and the time of service for each grade is limited to one year. Rea- song for the police raise and change in grading were presented by a com- mittee comprised of Traffic Super- visor Clarence Lamphere, Traffic Po- liceman Theodore Johnson, Detective A. J. Richardson and Policeman Her- bert C. Lyon. High cost of living, pay scales of other departments and other similar arguments were forcibly presented. Under the proposed new rating the chief of police will receive $1,900; captain, $1,700; sergeants, $1,450; first grade patrolmen, $2.75 per day second grade patrolmen, 33 per day; third grade patrolmen, $3 and “The Modern Boot Shop 168 MAIN STREET WILL BE OPEN FOR INSPECTION Friday Evening, Feb. 9th, from 6 to 9 Everything Modern, Nothing Like It in the State.

The salary of City Electrician George Cooley also received attention and he will receive, mendations are adopted, a Christmas boost of $100. The pro- posed salary is $1,600 and the present one, $1,500. He had asked for an in- crease of $200, the amount asked per | year being $1,700. Supernumeraries’ Petitios Through a committee comprised of E. B. Kerin, William Souney and Ira B, Plerson, the supernumerary police- | men sent in a communication asking for a graded pay scale with $2.75 as the lowest figure. A desire was ex- pressed to co-operate with the safe- ty board in having the city ordinance repealed that compels them to pay back fifty cents out of each day or night's pay, when a. Job. A vigorous protest was entered against the proposed charter revision clause depriving members of the su- pernumerary force from the right of a hearing before being discharged from the force or penalized. It was voted to give a hearing to the super- numerari at the regular February meeting of the board next Tuesday night. Last night's special session, at which Chairman Edward G. Babcock pre- sided with all members present, was for the purpose of discussing petitions for increases in pay and this com- prised the principal business. Sever- al matters were discussed that will come up for action at the regular meeting Tuesday night. Following last night's session the members a.l- journed to meet with the finance com- mittee of the common council and ex- plain a number of the recommenda- tions and communications transfered. It was voted to make a tour of in- spection among the fire stations Sat- urday night to get a line on conditions and what is needed for appropriations the coming year. This data will be used for discussion and action at Tuesday night's session, when the coming year’s budget will be taken up. Shift of Sergeants. Upon inquiry of Commissioner Frani J. Moran, there was a discussion rela- tive to the shifting of police ser- geants, as required under a motion re- cently adobted by the board. It was stated that the shifting has not goue — e OUCH!

McMahon, proprietor of Keeney's theater, asking that Super- numerary Policeman Dennis O'Keefe, farmerly janitor at police headquar- ters, be stationed permanently at the theater for afternoon and night duty. Supernumerary Policeman Harry Mount has been assigned to this thea- ter for a long time. McMahon gave little explanation of the desired change The bride’s gift to the bridesmaid is a locket and the groom’s gift to the best man is a gold watch chain.

MILITARY MEASURE HEARING ON TODAY Legislative Committee Discusses excepting that it would be agreeable to him. Informally, the request was approved but will come up at the res- ular meeting for definite action. In the past Chief of Polirn J. Rawlings has had charge of as- signing all supernumeraries to special duty. This work, according to his ad- missions, he has tried to do with im- partiality and has not favored appli- cants specifving any special surernu- merary, when ssking for a police de- tall. If McMahon's request, taken over the head of Chief Rawlings, is grant- ed it will mean, according to com- ments last night, an enocuraging of this procedure and, in a way, the tying of Chief Rawlings’ hands in managing his own department. Commissioners Moran and Steele have shown much concern in hew Su- pernumerary O'Keefe is getting alon: and, according to their attitude hoard meetings, have feared that he would not get sufficient work or be treated as well as the other men. Re- ports have been asked from time to time relative to his assignments and sometime ago there was criticlsm of the present system of janitor work at pollce headquarters in comparison to that done by O'Keefe. in TRYON—BELLMAN.

The possibility of military activities and the action taken by the governor in regard to taking a military census of the state have prompted the chair- man of this committee, which will prove to be one of the most impor- tant of the general assembly, to hold o hearing upon the military bill, which is most sweeping in its pro- visions, and will probably be opposed by labor leaders throughout the state on account of at least one fea- ture, which permits the militia to be called out for riot or disturbance of any sort. This is in opposition to the provisions of a bill, which has been introduced through their ef- forts, which provides that the state militia shall not he called upon to do strike or similar duty. It remains to be seen whether, in view of the extreme situation into which state and nation are forced at the present time, the labor people will oppose the Brooks military bill. The bill which is most exhaustive provides for three classes of service, the unorganized militia, the national guard and the naval militia. It pro- vides principally that all 1 citizens and all male residents of this state, who have or shall have declared their intention of becoming citizens of the United States between the ages of 18 and 45 vears of age, not exempted hy Jaw, shall be subject to military duty and be designated as the militia. The unorganized militia is to con- tist of all male citizens and all mala residents who have become or shall declare fheir intention of becoming citizens of the United States Detween {he above ages. In time of war, in- vasion, rebellion or riot or reason- able apprehension or upon requisi- tion of the President of the United States, the governor may order out for active service as much of the unorganized militia as he deems ne- cessary. The names of all male citizens shall be enrolled alphabetically with the selectmen of the town. The adjutant general has pretty general power un- der the law. He has control of the enrollment. In times of peace the number of men in the National Guard may not be less than 800 for each sen- ator and representative of the state in congress. The act provides that the National Guard may be called out in case of riot or civil commotion in any place in the state. Any officer whose duty it is to enforce the civil authority at such place, may if he considers that the force at his disposal is not suffi cient, inform the governor who may order out such portion of the National Guard as he deems necessary. Section 11 of the bill is most im- portant. It provides that in time of peace when any company, troop, bat- tery, or detachment of the National Guard shall be below the minimum set by the laws of the United States re- lating to the National Guard, the gov- ernor may upon application by the ad- jutant general draft the unorganized militia of town or city where suc! company is the number of. persong negessary to complete the roster. Tha draft is to be made by the selectmen or mayor of the town. Pensions are provided for famili of wounded or disabled soldiers by tl general assembly.
