BERLIN NEWS PASSENGER STRIKES TROLLEY CONDUCTOR Dr. Griswold Reports Six July Fourth Casualties PATRIOTIC MEETING TONIGHT Berlii Grange Expect Large Attend- ance at Mceting Tonight—Many ‘Leave Town Over Holiday—Court Tonight—Berlin Bits of Interest. receiving a 4 A trolley conhductor Dbeating up, six accidents reported by Dr. Griswold, gnd a family row at a Kensington home were the results of the observance of July Fourth in Berlin. With the above exgeptions the town was quiet throughout the day. Mystery shrouds the beating up re- ceived by the trolley car conductor inasmuch as the culprit escaped with- out anyone knowing his name and the conductor is in a bad shape as a result and did not reporte to work today. As the story is told® by a passenger of the car, the trolley was crowded, with more passengers getting on at every istop as the majority were going to New Britain to see the fireworks at the rark, and the conductor asked this certain man to m over to make room for an additional passenger. It is claimed that he became angered and started an argument which resulted in the conductor receiving a blacken- 'ed left eye and several cuts about the face. Frank Koval, the conductor, was treated by Dr. Cooley of New Britain, who found it necessary to take several stitches. It is also said that the person starting the argument made his get away before his name could be obtain- ed. No complaint had been made to prosecutor Lewis at an early hour this afternoon. Dr. Griswold Reports Dr. R. M. Griswold reports the fol- lowing accidents as Fourth of July casualties: Charles B. Wright, finger on left hand broke while playing ball. ‘West Chawtowski, blank cartridge blown into the palm of left hand. J. Kevarski, end of forefinger blown off. Unknown man, refusing to give his name, accidentally shot by a revolver through the left hand while in an automobile on the Berlin turnpike. J. Hull head and body badly bruised as a result of being thrown off of a motoreycle. George Ballbt, end of second finger, left hand, badly torn by pistol. ysterious Fire Saturday. A bucket brigade which was hastily formed;, made quick work of a blaze Saturday afternoon in a barn owned by Mrs. Grace Ventres of Berlin. As the explanation was made to Chiet Noble of the New Britain fire de- partment, which was summoned by phone, Mrs. Ventres and her daugh- ter were the only persons at home about 2 o'dlock and neither was in the barn. The daughter, however, had occa- sion to visit the barn and foudfd it ablaze. Men in the neighborhood worked with buckets and Engine Company No. 2 of the New Britain fire department was summoned. When the New Britain ‘department arrived, the blaze had been extinguished. The damage was slight, but there is a mystery which shrouds the outbreak of the fire, and which no one seems to be able to solve. Patriotic Mecting. Members of the Berlin Grange are anticipating a large = attendance at their patriotic meeting which will be held this evening at 8 o'clack in the Grange hall on Damon's hill. Fhe committee in charge of the event has been very fortunate in securing Cap- tain C. E. Lockhart to address the meeting. He has spoken at hun- dreds of such meetings throughout the state and is well known to lo- cal people as he was the principal speaker at the dedication of the Sol- diers’ War Memorial held here last fall. He served overseas with the 102d infantry and was one of the sev- eral army officers who was selected by the high official: to return home and speak for the Liberty loans. All service men and members of the Berlin patriotic organizations are in- vited to attend this meeting. The following members of the Grange will act as ushers: Larl Brown, Law- rence Austin, Howard Hall and Theodore Skinner. Tonight's Court Session. As the result of a breezy row held at the home of the Hulls in Ken- sington last evening there will be several persons including members of the Hull family, relatives and guests in the Berlin town court tonight on a charge of breach of the peace. Neighbors of the Hull family became interested in the family row last night and it is expected that there will be many of them in the court tonight to attend the hearing. Two Berlin people will also be ar- raigned before Judge Griswold and Prosecutor Lewis for having unli- censed dogs in their possession. Will Discontinue Meetings. At the meeting af the Men's Bible class: of the Berlin Congregational church held at the community house vesterday nocn, it was decided to discontinue the weekly meetings dur- ing the summer months. They will be resumed, however, in the fall. The Men's Bible class has been one of the most important social or- sanization in the town. It was formed last fall and has a member- ship of about 40 men. Several par- ties and monthly socials have been staged at the community house and, as a wind-up for the season, an out- ing was tendered the Brotherhood organization of the Kensington Con- gregational church. The outing was held at the community grounds a week ago Saturday at which time the Berfin men showed themselves to be the superior on the baseball dia- mond. Although the class will not meet during the summer it is quite possible that a series of baseball games will be played between Berlin and Kenaington. Return From Trip. Mr. and Mrs. C. B.

Sunday afternocn the Plainville A. C. defeated the Glastonbury players at Allen’s Field by the score of 2 to 0. It was a fast game with Griffin and Clinton s the battery for the locals. Connery and Schroeder were the bat- tery for tHe visitors. Yesterday aft- ernoon they were defeated by the Col- linsville nine in that town by the close scorag of 5 to 4. It was an 11 inning game. Phelps, Griffin and Clinton were the battery for Blainville and Runnel of Hartford and Kilduff -of New Britain was the battery for Col- linsville. The manhgememt of the Plainville A.
