Raised—Stcphen ' “McCarthy Dies from Pneuinonia— Dog Kills Rabbits—Negroes Run Amuck—Briefs. That the voters mill agree to an ap- propriation of probably $2,500 ' to make it possible for the town to'co- operate in the improving of the West Main and Whiting street highways at the special’ town meeting Thursday night is generally expected and re- ports in circulation today indicated that favorable action in this diredtion may be taken with but little, ‘it any, opposition. The selectmlen will recommend that the town join with the state and Cons necticut company in having the per- manent pavement on West Main street extend from curb to curb from ‘the railroad crossing to the ‘corner of Plerce street. They will also suggest that between $400 and $500 be ap- propriated that the pavement might cover the full width of the Whiting street highway as far south as the residence of Mrs. F. B. Norton. Although the income from the taxes will not be sufficient to meet the ex- penses for the year if the town joins in the highway improvement, there is a disposition on the part of the voters to favor the appropriation, particu- larly because of the fact that High- way Commissioner Bennett has inti- mated that Plainville will be left out of the improvement proposed on the state road unless it shows sufficient in- terest to warrant the expenditure of the amount which the contract wilt involve. § Permanent pavement on West Main street is badly needed and in view of the fact that the commissioner asks the town to contribute but about $2,- 000 towards a contract which will probably inyolve over $40,000, belief is held that the voters should make the required appropriation. The Whit- | ing street proposition is not so im- portant. Nevertheless t! suggestion that the pavement be laid from curb to curb as far as the Newton residence 1s admittedly one of merit and the amount which the town will; have to spend is so small that it hardly is worth an argument. | Talks Potatoes to Goifers. Joseph A, Fagan of Scott's Swamp, the potato king of this section, gave a talk last evening before members of the ‘Hartford Golf club on the grow- ing of the tubers. The club is making plans to cultivate a large tract of land, planting potatoes in several acres, and Mr. Fagan has agreed to instruct the members in the work they are about to attempt. He explained to them last evening that twenty bushels of seed and 2,000 pounds of fertilizer are required for each acre. The plants required con- siderable attention during develop- ment, and he gave instructions as to spraying, hoeing, etc. Mr Fagan was selected as instruc- tor by the club on the suggestion of Joseph W. Alsop of Avon, a member of the state fopd conservation com- mittee. sz . The Scott’s amp man during his address told the club of his intention to plant fifteen acres of potatoes this year himself. Last year he used but ten acres and raised a big crop. Stephen McCarthy Dead. Following an {liness of a few days with pneumonia, Stephen McCarthy of 14 Pearl street, died this morning at St. Francis hospital in Hartford. He was taken ‘to the institution a few weeks ago for treatment 6r a.broken leg. the result of a fall at his home. Pneumonia developed and hope for his recovery was abandoned yesterday. Mr. McCarthy was 43 years of age. He was a veteran of the Spanish- American war and served. at Porto Rico during the struggle. He is survived by four brothers, Rev. Bernard McCarthy of Hartford; Rev. Patrick McCarthy of Meriden; Michael McCarthy of Portchester, N. Y. and Joseph T. McCarthy of this place. He also has four sisters, the Misses Anna, Nora and Margaret, who live here ang Sister Mary Bernard of ‘West Hartford.

Constable Marino has in custody a valuable looking dog of airdale breed which he captured on the streets yes- terday following a complaint regard- ing the animals activities. The dog had gained entrance of a rabbit pen in a yard on East Main street and he Prussianized the occu- pants, the dead bodies of his twenty- eight victims being found later by the owner. g The dog will remain a prisoner for a few days and unless the owner ap- pears to claim it and to settle for the death of the rabbits, it will be killed.
