The number of patents granted to New Britain residents annually is very large.” The sun never sets on New Britain products. The Times of Chester, Pa., in its issue of February 23, contains the following account of the use of the N.

Hart arrested Nicoli Messina at hiS place of business at Lafayette street, | near Beaver street, yesterday after- noom on twa charges of violating liquor laws. In court today he was put to plea for selling wine to Paul David and for keeping intoxicating beverages with intent to secll. He peaded not guilty. His attorney, Lawyer Josiah Greenstein, asked fo a continuance until March 16 so that an opportunity might be afforded the accused to have the liquor analyzed. When the police visited the place yesterday afternoon, they found home- | made wine in such quantities that the police patrol wagon was declared not capable of transporting the contra- band to the station. One of H. R. Walker's double teams was called. Four barrels of wine were drawn out of the cellar with ropes. Guiseppi Cuderno was arraigned on a charge of reckless driving but in the absence of one of the state's principal witnesses, who is confined to the hospital with rather serious in- juries, an adjournment until next Tuesday was made necessary. The ac- cused is represented by Lawyer Frank | Roman of Hartford. He was arrested | yesterday afternoon by Sergeant A. | J. Richardson following an investiga- | tion of an automobile accident on the Hartford rcad near Ibelle’s corner. The man injured is M. J. Durkin of | 1423 Broad street, Hartford. l Information furnished the police is to the effect that Cuderno’s roadster struck a stone in the road, losing a wheel, and then ran on three wheels until it struck Durkin’'s truck, over- turning both cars. Investigation is said to have shown that Cuderno was on the left side of the road when the boulder was hit and that he was going at an excessive rate.

MORE ROUBLE FOR FALK Fined for Selling Booze Monday, Milk Dealer May Now Lose License to Sell That Commodity. Eli Falk, a milk dealer in the northern section of the city, will be summoned before a special meeting of the board of health commission- ers within a few days to show cause . Why his milk dealer’s license shoula not be suspended. The health de- partment officials report that Falk has been a source’ of comstant annoy- ance and a persistent violater of milk ordinances. Should the bhoard vote to suspend his license, and there seems to be a disposition on the part of the commissioners to take such ac. tion, it will be the second time that Falk has been deprived of the privi- lege of selling milk in this city. Falk was arraigned in police court Monday morning before Judge George W. Klett on a charge of sell- ing liquor. He was fined $150 and costs. On top of that fine it is preb- able that the federal authorities will exact their $550 penalty which will be followed up by the suspension of his milk license, giving Falk every rea- son to believe in the epigram, “It never rains, but it pours.” Native Eggs, 2 doz. $1.00.

A petition was received from the Horace Booth cstate, Alex Benty and J. Yonicki, for a sewer in the north branch of Broad strect, between Cleve- land and Burritt stree! The Booth estate sent in a letter favoring the sewer and Mr. Benty represented him- self and his partner as favoring the sewer. The board voted to table the matter, pending action by the legisla- ture on the proposed in se in maxi- mum assessment from $1.75 to $3.00 per front foot. A petition was received for top dressing on Norden street between Arch and Linwood streets The work will be done when funds are available. The board of public works presented the following: ‘*We hereby return peti- tion for water main in Daly avenue signed by Thomas F. McCormick, with- out our approval, on account of the heavy cost. ““First this street is an unaccepted street; there is water in the street; the cost of installing a water main would be about $4,000. Eight per cent in- terest would amount to over $3U0 per year—this would be a burden for eone property owner—therefore the board voted not to approve the petition..” In dview of this recommendation the board voted to reject the petition. On recommendation of the city en- gineer, an increase in subway rental will be recommended to the common council, from 4 to 414 cents per lineal foot, to provide the necessary income from subways. DPayments under the in- creased rate are due July 1, 1921, and January 1, 1922. The city engineer stated that the necessary incomeé for 1921 from subway rental is $14,770. In- clusive of the West Main street addi- tion there are 057 feet of rented subway space, which at 415 cents per foot, will bring in $15,028.06. The necessary income for 1922 will be $16,- 770 and the total estimated length, in- clusive of the Park street subway, which will be completed by next year, will be 378,152 feet. It was voted, on motion of Commis- sioner Bacon, to request the common council for permission to spend $2,000 to complete the year's experimental work at the sewer beds, as recom- mended by the state. The state shares the expense of the experimental work. On motion of Commissioner Downs, it was voted to hold a hearing on the proposed permanent paving of South street from Brook street southerl Hearings will be held also on the pr posed establishment of lines on Jerome street and the proposed curb and gut- ters and concrete sidewalks on both sides of Wooster street.
