It while at- wmeking one of these b that the aceident octurred. The fellow-work- er of Lazzario was instructed to knock several of the heavy beams out of place by means of the sledge hammer. Ho had put all of his force behind the blow of the hammer, which missed the Intended beam and went siling through the air It struck lazzario on the head and he fell to the ground, unconscious. Fellow- workers rendered what assistance was ible and summoned Dr. T. C mnnn. of Berlin. The man was preunats in that the hammer struck jm sidewise His forehead was split lopen and wmeveral stitches were re- quired to close the wound. The doe- tor had him removed to his home, where he was reported as improving this inorning The workmen at the depot lay glame upon the man who was han- dling the hammer and all are of the epidion that it was an accident The steam shovel. after much hard work, was removed from the to s position in the brickyard Good-Byo Fair Grounds, The Berlin Fair grounds arc now & matter of history.

A féew school boys om New Britain were taking their [@aily track practice when the work me was started. Their expressions were sad when they saw the first furrow of the old track overturned and they knew they must seek a new place for thelir daily tryouts. It was reported that & number of lots aiready have been sold and it is probable that houses will be erected upon the property very soon. No Shows in This Town. The New Britain office of the West- ern Union evidently made a mistake this morning, for it called the Berlin and Kensington post offices in an ef- fort 1o locate a traveiing show which was supposed to be located in Berlin. The queries failed to reveal the stop- ping of any traveling people here. The name given was the O'Brien Ex- position shows. As far as is known the show people had not posted this town for a stopping place and as a matter of fact it had not been heard that the shows were in this vicinity. Highway Work Changes. Work on the Hartford turnpike has changed somewhat and now the end nearest the Newington town lime is being completed rather than the end which reaches to Woodruff's store. When first started several months ago, work was started on the Berlin end and it was expected that that part of the road would be open to traffic by this time. The roadway is going much slower than anticipated. The plece of work to be finished first in- cludes from the Newington line to the rallroad crossing after which the por- tion from the crossing to this town will be completed, Just when the road will be ready for traffic is un- known, but it will probably be at least several .months.

All the street lighting is taken care of by the V. I. . and according to Dr. T. C. Hodgson, president of the so- clety, there is enough money on hand to pay for the lighting until next spring.
