While the members of the board present seemed favorably disposed toward the request of the pe- titioners it was deemed advisable to postpone definite action until the full board assembled in:the near future. It was decided to .hold the. public meeting on Friday evening, March' 30, at 8 o’clock’ ‘and . arrangements ‘were made to mnotify all the residents of the town. An elaborate and enter- sy, W e e et will be well spent. The pupils of the | various schools will take part in the meeting and eaeh will have his or her own individual part to play in the en- tertainment. ' The committee was. agreeably surprised at the small num- ber of bills which were presented last evening.” There was an early adjourn- ment of the meeting due to the mll amount of business. +. Just what increase the teachers are ®ding to ask for has not been made known but something like $50 is ex- pected to be about l;:o amount asked for. Supervisor of Schools J W. Dows was not present at last nigh meeting &s he had’ other business to attend to out of town but he is e: to give his opinion on the m ter at the next meeting. It is felt that the move on the part of the local teachers is entirely in keeping with the jncreased cost of living and that other towns and cities about the state are facing the same condition A special meeting of the board mi called in order that the matter may be looked into at once. St. Patrick Services. On Sunday evening at '8 o'cloek there will be a ln7chl celebration, in 8t. Paul's church ‘in observance* of St. Patrick’s Day. Rev. J. C.

For many years residents of Berlin, New Britain and Meriden have agi- tated a trolley line between the Ken- sington district to Meriden by the way of Cathole road. A number of years ago the original charter was al- lowed to expire but soon after the New Britain, Kensington and Meriden Street Rallway company took out an- other charter and as the time is close at hand when that charter will expire the men interested have been granted an extension of time. The life of the charter has been increased for two years or until the next meeting of the general assembly. In the meantime developments are expected to be made and before the next meeting of the general assembly the road should be well under construction. Successful Concert. Under' the auspices of the Berlin Brotherhood the Tuxedo Banjo orches- tra, of Hartford, gave a very delight- ful concert in the town hall last night. Long before 8 o'clock the hali was:well filled with friends and. members of the brotherhood and all reported that the affair was one of the finest ever staged in the town. The program consisted of popular and classical songs and selections and ~;| the orchestra members were forced to answer to many encores. R. S. Mc- Gee, a reader, delighted the large au- dience with his fine selection of hu- morous and serious stories. Members of the brotherhood are so well satis- fled with the result of last night’s en- tertainment that they may soon make arrangements for another entertain- ment. Mrs. Mary Frances Stillman. The fuferal of Mrs; Mary Frances Stillman, a local resident for many years, was held from the chapgl of the First Congregational church, New Britain, this afternoén at 2 o'clock. Rev. E. T.

Williams has been appointel by the state board to have charge of thé work of getting recruits here and it is expected that before the end of the week he will issue & call for a public meeting at ‘which invitations to become affiliated with the organizaton will’be given. Already prominent citizsens, whe have passed the age limit for service in the national guard or the regufar army, have their willingness to affiliate themselves with the com- panies whose aid would be aaked in repelling the enemy ir case the situa- '] tion in time of war became such that Connecticut was in danger from at- tacking forces. A. H. Condell was among the first to. express his intention of becoming & member of the guard when it is or- ganized. ' Mr.. Condell had military experience as a member of :the -na- tional guard of New York, having servéd with that organization when but & youth, and while hé could not be accepted in the regular. army inj" case of war, beca of his age, he is willing to do.his share towards protecting his state at a time when the younger men’s services might be required elsewhere. Other:citizens of prominence, including some of the G. A. R, have announced their willing- ness to join, and Mr. Willlams is not l expected to have much trouble, in getting recruits here. ‘While it is understood that mem- bership in the Home Guard will, not be restricted, the men expected .to Join are those who by reason of ad- vanced age, physical disabilities or other circumstances consider. them- selves unable to affiliate themselves with the National Guard, Mla war be declared. Plainville is ready to do.-its part in the event of hostilities:and, b\ sides furnishing fts full quota toward the regular army in case of necessity will no doubt have a Home Guard that will measure up to that of any of the towns of its size in the state. - That such will be the csse is indi- cated by the reports made in ocon- nection with the compllation of the military census, the town making an excauent showing in the thventory of man power. Approximately twelvo hnnJrad names, and the de- sired information concerning their owners, have been sent to the state bureau at Hartford. A check up with available lists shows that few of the niale residents have been skipped. During the last two days over a dos- en blanks have been sent in by men overlooked by the enumerators help- ing to. swell Plainville's total. The enumerators report that the “yellow streak’! was not apparent anywhere in Plainville, not a single resident having.refused to give the desired in- formation. Even foreigners, who are still subjects of other countries, wil- lingly filled out their blanks when the object of the census was ex- plained to them and a large per- centage of them expresged their in- teption of fighting for Uncle Sam should the occasion arise where their services are needed. The need make apology for its standing in the sta) report and, the volunteer enumerators have reason to be proud of the results of their effortd. Ready For Ooccupancy May 1. Although unfavorable weather has delayed the work to some extent Con-' tractors Furrey and Dow expect to have the dwellings on which they are employed for the Plainville Real- ty company ready for oceupancy by May 1. Two of the buildings are now ready for plastering and another one is in m for roofing. While the company has not announced its plans for the summer it is understood that the directors have practically decid- ed to start the erection ' of other buildings . on: their property in " the eastern section as soon as those now in course of erection are completed. Plans have been drawn, it is sate, for the construction of three new dwellings ‘in the western section of the towpn, and more are expected to follow, g;pachlly should ~the com- pany which absorved the Rockwell- Drake corporation decide to locate hospital on Monday, was reported as about the same last evening.

For most of his life he had lved here, ‘While away for a time he was post- master at Versailles. He was born here October 28, 1848, and was in his 60th year.
