Since the article appeared in a revious editicn of the Herald rela- dve t> the formation of a fire dis- rict in East Berlin, there has been L great deal of discussion among the ‘esidents of that town both pro and “oman God Changed”’ ; J{Ij'OX’S{-_-THURSDAY con on the argument. As a resident of the town of East Berlin stated this morning, there is already an East Berlin Improvement association and an East Berlin Village Improve- ment association both of which are supposed to care for the best interest of the town. Sidewalks, etc., are supposed to be repaired by these organizations. Money for the work of the latter is often raised by giving entertainments at Athletic hall. Many residents claim, however, that more good can be done by or- ganizing a fire district than by the two improvement societies. Further action towards forming such a dis- trict will be awaited with interest by many people. Annual Meeting Tonight. The annual meeting of the East Borlin Improvement company will be held at Athletic hall this evening at 8 o'clock. Officers will be elected for the ensuing yvear and other bus- iness proper to come before said meeting will be discussed. A large attendance is requested at this meeting.

The principal ex- citement at camp was a battle with a large pink snake, in which the boys came out victorious. The boys returned in a large wagon and when seen entering upon the outskirts of the town reminded several of the by-gone days in the west when prairie schooners were the only means of transportation. All report a very enjoyable time. Class to Compounce. Miss Mansfleld of the KXengington Grammar school took the pupils of her class to Lake Compounce today where they enjoyed a day’s outing.

Constable Conlon has an enviable record for arresting speeding autoists ad is considered one of the best in the vicinity. The constable is ‘con- stantly on the alert in the center of the town during Sunday as the traf- fic is then the heaviest and the driv- ers generally speed through the streets. The traffic yesterday was one of the heaviest the town has ever had, due to an aviator flying at Lake Compounce. It is a surprise that there were no accidents as there was a continual flow of cars passing through the center headed for Bris- tol. The trolley cars were over- crowded and taxed to the limit, yet there were no reports of accidents among them. This is considered ex- cellent by the authorities and with the exception of the one speedster, the day would have passed without an arrest. Ramley will probfl.bly be placed on trial in the town court tomorrow night to answer to the charges against ‘him. Fresh Air Youngsters. The consignment of youngsters from the New York Tribune is ex- pected to arrive here this afternoon Ttems. on the 4:38 o'clock train.

Tyler of Maple street will care for two of them: Mr. and Mrs. Harry Simpson of Broad street will look after one, while Miss Mary Rooney of Crown street will also have one. The children will remain in the town for two weeks and be given every opportunity to enjoy them- selves to the utmost. Swimming, fishing, hunting, all the sports their litsle hearts are denied while in the Metropolis, will be given them that they may go home to the less for- tunate ones and tell them of the wonders which exist beyond the huge barriers of skyscrappers that im- prison them from the beautiful sights of the greenlands. Milk, pure from the cow in the pasture, will be given them in plate of that which gener- ally is handed them out of the large cans which are seen to arrive at the freight station and later _sold in bottles. With the other youngsters of the town, they will undoubtedly receive a royal time. Factories Open. The H. C.

Baseball Results Yesterday afternoon the Aces base- ball nine played the Atlas A. C., of Manchester and were defeated by th score of 4 to 3. Both teams played ex- cellent ball but a few hits sent in at the right time won the game for the Manchester players. The batteries for the Manchester team were Cervini and Marino. Although thi¢ is the fourth lcague game the Aces have lost so far during the season, they have not lost heart and are still confident of winning the permmant in the Central Connecticut League. The game yester day was largely attended which show- ed that the fans are still co-operating with the players. It also appears that the game be- tween the Grammar school players and the Aces of last week Wednes. day evening, was erroneous, as the managers deny it. The game was merely a picked team of players. The Plainville A. C. did not play on Saturday afternoon as the game against Wethersfield was postponed on account of wet grounds. Apparently this was the same reaon the Unionville players called off the game of yester- day afternoon. The Happy Nine went to Milldale yesterday morning and were defeated by the score of 3 to 2, by the team of that place. “Speck” Graham did the twirling for the Happy Nine while Hayes caught.
