Thursday the car went out of order and was sent to the garage. The Ta- -Rogers company complied with his request for a sery car to be used in delivering perishable goods. While deliveries were being made he | was ac Policeman Lamphere. Had Service Agreement. The representative of the Hartford firm explained that his agreement with Bayer is similar to that made | with others to whom trucks are sold. In fact, he said, the State of Con- necticut had availed itself of the convenience offered in the use of his service truck at one time. In the carly part of the trial, Law- ver Daley ralsed the question of Mr. Rodgers answering the charge when | it was an offense of the corporation. When Prosecutor Greenberg motjoned for contihuance, the Hartford at- torney agreed to go on with the hear- ing. An appeal in bonds of $50 was taken Held on Serious Charge. At the request of Lawyer P.

The factories and stores will follow the eastern standard time which it business transactions throughout the city. The broblem at the local post of- fica has been solved by having the working force go to work one-half an hour earlier, and having the mails close one hour earlier so that the same train connections can be made. The stamp window will fol- o'clock at night. The last mail at) night will close at 8$:45 p. m. at the office. The night collections will be advanced one hour, and the registry window will be open one-half an| hour earlier. The office will close | E 11 ‘clock Sunday instead of 12 o'clock. The wchanges are due %o the fact that the railroads are on daylight saving. Stanley Eddy, local manager of Richter and company, vrokers, said of his establishment would be <on- New York. and consequently the stock market there was on daylight ving, it would necessitate some of business. As New Britain is on castern time, Manager Eddy is now | working on a system whereby Richter | and company can conform more | closely to the industrial life in this city. The same schedule will prob- ably bg followed out at Keough and company, brokers. Judd and com- pany will most likely follow the schedule of eastern time, as they deal almost exclusively 4n lecal stocks. i CLEAR GOODLY SUM | All is In Readiness for Presentation of King Dodo First Three Days | Frank Goodrich, chairman of the committee which has charge of pro- ducing King Dodo, the Masonic Temple corporation benefit perform- the Lyceum on Monday, Tues: v and Wednesda. has expressed himelf as more than pleased with the prospect, not only of a show that 1 more than satisfy the public, but lso from a financial standpoint. Re- ports at Crowell's drug store, where tickets are on sale, indicate capacity houses on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and the desirable seats for Monday night are now selling rapid- Iy, There is also a brisk demand for Wednesday matinee tickets, which will algo be sold at the box office on that of Week The work of Miss Mary Ann Wil- liams in this production should be especially pleasing inasmuch as she appears in a novel role and one that is absolutely new to all local amateur thespians. In King Dodo, Miss Wil- liams essayvs a male character, that of Piola, a soldier of fortune, and her interpretation of the part should be especially pleasing. Playing the male lead will be Howard Y. Stearns, who starred in “Oh, Oh, Cindy"” last year. There are several new faces in this vear's cast including A. L. well known singer, N Misy Virginia Stevens, A. J. Bull, Iona Kineaid and several others, all of whom have had the stamp of approval of Director Lord.
