A. H. Condell said that the New | Britain company simply holds a 90 day option on the property and it is | uncertain as to whether or not the | company will exercise its right. There was no meeting of the stock- holders of the company and it is im- possible to sell assets legally without the approval of the stockholders at a regularly conducted meeting. Surprise New Minister. Rev. George E. Tvler, the recently appointed pastor of the Advent Chris- tian church, was pleasantly surprised last evening at his home by a number of members of the church and their It was the oceasion of Rev. vier's birthday. About 80 guests were present from Bristol, New Brit- & Hartford and this town Rev. liam J. Denton of New Haven, former pastor of the church, was among the guests. Refreshments were served.

A class of candidates was initiated and reports were received on the progress of the membership cam- paign. The officers af the court are of the opinion that the campaign is progressing satisfactorily. It will close on or about April 1 Trolleys Run Again. The Bristol and Plainville Tramway company opened its line all the way cars are again running an the regular -minute schedule. The Connecticut company's cars began making the trip to Lazy lane yesterday afternoon aft- er pending operations on that line three davs. The thaw aided fo a extent in opening the line to Southinzion. The tracks on the Southington line are dbove the ground like the steam road rails, and the ics thawed very quickly. Republican Caucus. The republican caucus will be held in the court room at the town hall to- morrow evening at 8 o'clock to elect delegates to the state convention to be Held in New Haven on March 23 and 24. to elect representatives to the re- publican natfonal convention and to appoint a state central committee. A chairman of the town committee will also be chosen for two vears. Edwin H. Hills is the present chairman. Local Thespians Appear Miss Georgiana Booth and Clarence Anderson of this town, are appearing | in “Oh, Oh, Cindy.’ being presented in New Britain under the auspices of the Masonic lodges. Miss Booth ap- pears as a ballet dancer and Mr. An- derson is one of the three bears in a vaudeville sketch. Miss Booth has become well known in this section for her ability as a toe dancer. Mr. An- derson is making his initial appear- ance in amatcur theatricals. Thaw Floods Streets The thaw which began vesterday has flooded the streets in the center ‘of the town and has made walking | anythinz but a pleasure to pedes- trians. The drains on the streets are clogged up by collection of ice, snow and refuse. During the storm the se- lectmen hired men to clear away the ice from the drains but they have be- come clogged up since that time. Residents of East street and other ! streets in the eastern end of the town complain that the condition of East street is worse than any other street | in ‘town. From’ the appearance of the streets it is apparent that the storm will cost the town of Plainville a considerable sum of money for re-' pairs and improvements this spring when the roads will have to be. cleaned and scraped.

Bdjtor Herald: The undersigned read in vour | issue of last evening’s Herald in the | Plainville news that it was reported | that the Aidridge block had been sold, that is the part owned by the children of the late William Alderige, and if your reporter cared to get his | right bearings working correctly he ! would not accept his news from | a Plainville Real Estate man, who | has put himself in the way of being | refused any information from thess | saime children when he has tried to | zet the property out of the hands of the writer, and who has without bL given the incorrect information to many people. as well as your re- porter. [ wish to state as being duly ap- pointed trustee of the obove estate. that there is no ground for any such statement, nor is there any person, or persons trying to purchase the above propertv. or even attempted to negotiate for same during the past three months, especially at the price the Plainville real estate agent has the property is for sale asking price is paid and not until | then.
