STATE T0 AID TOWNS No Question But What Put Forth Funds to Common- wealth Will Help Pay Teachers’ Increase. Hartford, June 24.—"There is no occasion to worry over the state being unable to assist towns to pay the ten per cent increase in salaries of teach- ers unil the next session of the Gen- eral Assembly,” sald Dr. A. B. Mere- dith, state commissioner of educa- tion today. His remarks was due to the fact that there seems to be no longer any doubt that tho General Assembly al the recent session failed to pass the bill for an appropriation of $238,000 to meet the proposed increased in the salaries of teachers in towns having grand list of less than three million five hundred thousand dollars. There are 101 of these towns. It was as- sured by some that failure to make the appropriation would result in the postponement in the increase in sal- aries. Dr. Meredith said that out of ihe appropriation of seven hundred and fifteen thousand dollars voted by the General Assembly for the support of schools the state would be able to pay the towns the money which they needed for the increase.

Mills MLDUNUUUIE | EEREMIINY IS SPEEDY) 'FflR WAR IN’61 HERE [][]NE A’l‘ MEETING (Continued From First Page). American and British newspapermen. The first Puchess of Marlborough, be- fore her m 1. to the duke, was Consuelo fande! t of New York. She obtained a decree of absolute divorce from the duke on May 13 last. The hour originally set for the civil ceremony was three o'clock this after- noon, but the time was changed at the last minute to 11 o'clock this morning in order to avoid spectators. Despite this, a battery of motion pic- ture men greeted the couple as they walked from the consulate. A lunch eon for the wedding party followed at the home of Mr. Higgins where the religious ceremony will be celebrated at noon tomorrow. The duchess wore a costume of “good luck” blue, consisting of a simple silk dress of deep blue and a large blue picture hat, the shade hav- ing been selected by her to bring good fortune. Immediately after the cere- mony the witnesses hailed the bride as “Duchess” and the duke laughed and said he was greatly honored in marrying an American girl. He gave his name as “Charles Richard John Spencer Churchill, Duke of the Realm’ and his age as 49. The bride gave her name as Gladys Marie Deacon, daughter of Edward Parker Deacon of Boston, spinster, gentle- woman. No age was mentioned. The duke would not confirm an an- nouncement published by several Paris newspapers to the effect that Lord Chancellor Birkemhead of Great Britain would preside at the religious ceremony tomorrow. He said the chancellor was a personal friend of his, but would not say that he had been invited to the wedding. Scores of presents continued to arrive today at the home of the duchess from American, French and English friends.

The boy on the bicycle was coming down Church street at a fair rate of speed and hit the smaller boy a clip, throwing him to the road. Officer Clarence Lamphere was on the scene in no time and observed that the boy ha his knees skinned. He then took on the role of a juvenile court judge and gave the bicyclist a good little talking to. Offcer Lamphere action in giving a lecture seemed to act as a soothing syrup to the boy hit for he stopped crying and all went merrily on their way. SILVER WEDDING. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Behnke, of 317 Maple street, are receiving the congratulations of their friends today upon the occasion of their silver wed- ding anniversary.

Wasitz pitched for New Britain, getting 10 strikeouts, while Witheral pitched for South Manchester, being credited with nine strikeouts. The defeat of the local boys was due to the poore$t backing a pitcher has ever had in the local school. A total of 18 error was credit- ed to them. Both pitchers had a double play. SOUTH CHURCH OUTING. The South church school will hold its annual picnic at Lake Compounce tomorrow, weather permitting. The special cars will leave from in front of the South church at 9:30 sharp.

As a young man he attended Amherst college, at Amherst, Mass.> graduating from that institution in 1861. The outbreak of the Civil war prevented him entering the ministry and he enlisted in the Union army shortly after his ordina- tion at the Union Theological Semin- ery of New York. He never returned to New Britain to live after this time. At the close ot the war he went west and for awhile was pastor of a Congregational church in Kansas City. Later he filled charges in various parts of the west until his retirement some years ago. For a time he made his home with his son Alfred B. Andrews, of Chicago. Recently he has been living with his daughter, Mrs. R. W. Gibbs, of Columbia, S. C. Mrs. Gibbs accompanied her father north on his trip and the couple were met in New Britain by the son and brother who came in from Chicago to join them. They are stopping at the Hotel Beloin. “Everything seems so new and fresh and enterprising and progressive that it is remarkable how the town has grown into a large city,” said Rev Mr. Andrews this morning. Mr. An-- drews appears to be in a remarkable state of health and an observer would not guess his age within 20 years of 90. The visiting clergyman took a trol- ley ride from New Britain to Hartford but did not feel overly pleased with “They make to many stops,” he said He and his children are thinking of making a trolley tour of New England this summer before returning to their homes. “How did you travel between New Britain and Hartford in your time?” he was asked. The elderly minister stroked his beard in a reminiscent manner and his eyes twinkled as he answered, “O we just hitched up the old farm horse, took along a peck of oats to feed him on the way, and started out for a day’s journey.” “There wasn't much travel in those days,” he added. He was very much surprised to learn the present popu- lation of New Britain. “When I left here they had less than 6,000 people,” he said. Rev. Mr. Andrews preached his first sermon in the New Britain church where his father and later his brother were deacons, just before he left to join the army. . M. E. PICNIC TOMORROW. Annual Outing to Be Held in Rock- well Park, Bristol—Free Transpor- tation for Children. The Sunday school of Trinity M. E. church will hold its annual picnic at Rockwell park, Bristol, tomorrow. The picnic will be in the nature of a “‘general spread” and the Sunday school members who attend will com- bine their food and all eat at the same table. Superintendent H, G. Han- | cock has requested those attending to P! ut up a small lunch and leave it at the church before 10 o'clock in the morning. Arrangements have been made to furnish free transportation to all chil- dren attending the beginners’, pri- mary and junior departments. Extra auto busses will be on hand to take members of the adult departments. Those preferring to go by trolley should transfer to the Terryville car at Bristol center. Cars leave New Britain at 9:32 and every 15 minutes thereafter. The trolley fare is 20 cents. In case of rain the church office will be able to advise, whether or not the outing is postponed. Garage Commission Plan Being Met With Favor As a result of tonight's meeting for the discussion of affairs pertaining to the municipal garage, it is probable that a garage committee will be se- lected and the care of that enterprise will then be taken from the board of police commissioners. The appoint- ment of a commission whose work would lie solely in the supervision of the garage would make for greater efficiency than with a continuance of the present plan, it is argued. The mayor is understood to favor some such change. A HOT JOB. Residents of New Britain who are inclined to kick about the tempera- ture hovering between 90 and 100 in the shade, should get a job with a certain Philadelphia painter. A lo- cal man, whose wife is visiting in the Quaker City, writes about her brother, a Philadelphia painter, as follows: “Will said he had been painting in a greenhouse yesterday. The temperature was 170° He had to give up before the day's work was finished.” AUTOS DISPLACE HORSES. According to figures compiled by the Horse association of America, Connecticut has suffered a decrease of 23,118 horses, which were dis- placed by autos during the past ten vears. Throughout the country the figures have beén reduced from 3,- 182,789 to 1,709,611. This is offset in part by an increase of 107,879 mules. MARRIAGE LICENSES. Marriage licenses have been taken out as follows: Walter Frederick Koss of 46 Maple street, and Miss Sadie May Button of the same ad- dress; Paul Unterweger of 147 South Main street, and Mrs. Mary Reiner of Adams, Mass. In both cases, it is the second marriage for the bride. MARRIED IN BERLIN. Francis Eugene Schrimpp of 85 El- lis street, and Miss Minnie Helen Thompson of Berlin, were married in Berlin, June 15, by Rev. Samuel A Fiske, pastor of the Berlin Congre- gational church, return certificates at the office of the town clerk show. A. F. OF L. Convention Nowhere Near Finished Denver, Colo., June 24.—Election of officers, the demand of women for equal rights and privileges in all la- bor unions, determination of future relationship with European trade movements and jurisdictional dis- putes are the major issues now con- fronting the annual convention of the American Federation of Labor. Although the convention has been in segsion nearly two weeks an un- usual volume of work remains. Owing to a ruling by President Sam- uel Gompers, the election of officers usually made a special order of bus- iness on the day before adjourn- ment, will be held this year on the last day. The committee on international re- lations, it is learned will report fa- vorably on the two resolutions sub- mitted to the conventign by the international association of machin- ists and the firemen and oilers’ union demanding that President Gompets immediately be instructed to re-af- filiate the federation with the inter- national federation of trades unions. The machinists delegates have an- nounced their intention to put up a fight to overthrow the committe’s report. The women delegates have united to support a resolution which would amend the federation’s constitution 8o as to give them “all the privileges of membership in the union of their trade or industry.” The announcement by John L. Lew- is of the platform on which he is running for the presidency of the fed- eration brought a statement today from President Gompers who de- clared: “It is not the right or the privi- lege of any individual to make a platform in the labor movement.t’ Miss Mary Ostroski Guest At Miscellaneous Shower Miss Mary Ostroski was entertained at a miscellaneous shower last cven- ing at the home of her aunt, Mrs. Keenaz Johnson of Glen street.

Detroit, June 24.—The executive committee of the socialist party met here today preliminary to the nation- al convention which opens tomorrow. Sixty delegates are expected for the convention. Leaders of the conserv- ative faction predict they will out- number the communist left wing by at least five to one on the convention floor. The principal fight is brewing over the question of international re- lations. The left wing radicals will make their fight on affiliation with the third internationale of Moscow without res- ervation, on the terms laid down by the Russian soviets. TO RETURN PROPERTY American Holdings in Germany Will Be Restored, Berlin, June 24 (By Associated Press).—It was announced today that all American property held by the German government would be re- leased immediately, the foreign office said much of such property already had been restored, but that certain credits and securities were still held. This was because Germany was un- able to know whether the United States would adopt the same system of accounting as that provided for in the Versailles treaty, the announce- ment declared.

Chicopee, Mass., June 24.—Miss Lucy Gillett of Westfield, sister of Speaker of the House Gillett of th2 national house of representatives, was discharged in district court here to- day afer a brief hearing on a charge of manslaughter brought as a result of the death of Irene Cote, aged 13, who was struck by an automobile criven by Miss Gillett June 10th.
