Y e ‘WATERBURY MAN KILLED. ' Danbury, Aug. 18.—Benjamin See- Jey, of Waterbury, was killed in an fle accident on the state rosd _Newtown and this city this ‘he mayor would recommend & plan along those lines. The council adjourn- ed for three weeks, at which time a re- port will be presented by the fire board. At a special session preceding the regular meeting of the council, Thomas J. Quinlivan was elected a fourth ward councilman, succeeding Emil F. Malmgren. Twenty-one members answered the roll call for the regular meeting. Church Has Grievance. The Swedish Bethany church pre- sented a report characterizing con- ditions caused by a gasoline station north of the church property as a “nuisance.” Action of relief was sought. Alderman F. R. Gilpatric moved the matter be placed in the hands of the special committee on the handling of gasoline. He felt that the commit- tee could clear up the general situa- tion by acting in this matter as a tect case. Mayor O. F. Curtis expressed his belief that there is a line of demarka- tion between this particular case and the other matters to be handled by the committee. A particular charge of nuisance is made in this case, he ex- Prlained. A lengthy discussion on the possi- tilities of the city being in a position to act followed. Matter Is Referred. After Alderman Gilpatric withdrew his motion to expediate action, Coun- cilman M. F. Kerwin moved that the matter go to the prosecuting attorney and the public works board. By an amendment of Alderman J. F. Gill the pelition was referred to the mayor and the prosecuting attorney. The message sent by.the church was as follows: “To his honor the mayor and the common counkcil of the city of New Britain:— ; “The petition off the Swedish Evangelical Bethany church of New Pritain, respectfully' represents:— “1—That your petitioner is an ecclesiastical corporation ' having a church upon Franklin Square where a arge congregation attends for the purpose of religious worship. “2—On the north side immediate- ly adjoining the church building of your petitioner there is a gasoline station and a store for the retail sale of automobile supplies. Open Every Day. “3—This gasoline station and store is open for business seven days each week from early morning until late at night, and automoblilists needinz gasoline or automobile parts or sup- plies, stop in front of the store or in front of your petitioner's °building where religious services are being conducted. They occupy the street in front of your petitioner’s build- ing and cause annoyance and. inter- ruption of religiows worship there conducted. ‘“4—This store by reason of its location and by reason of automo- biles stopping and gathering there interfere at times with ftinerals, weddings and other religious func- tions. “5—Loud talk, sometimes course and even profane can be heard in the vicinity .of this automobile store and gasoline supply station. Religious Freedom Sought. “6—One of the purposes of the State of Connecticut is to protect persons assembling flor religious worship and all persons have the right to worship, freely and without molestation. “The manner in which the gasoline station is conducted is a nuisance. “Your petitioner prays that your honorable body will pass such rules, regulations or ordinances as to pro- hibit the sale of gasoline near the church, and also to prohibit the business being done upon the street in the way of repairs and supplies near and in front of the church so that the congregation may bLe per- mitted to worship without willful in- terruption and without unnecessary disturbance. “JOHN OHLSON, “Vice-president. “G. E. PIHL, “Pastor.” Upon a motion of Alderman Cil- patric the special committee on gasoline investigation will be asked for a prompt report. Bills of $50,000 Paid. The payment of bills to the amount of $50,768.87, was authorized. The report contained for the first time, an itemized report from the park commission. Alderman Gill questioned whether or not the public amusement com- mission is using good judgment in not scattering its patronage among many merchants. On one item which the member had studied a saving of 15 per cent could have been worked by buying elsewhere, he claimed. The payment of county tax amounting to $28,888.81 was author- ized. The comptroller reported having paid $625 for the transportation of 25 Spaniards to the old country: also the payment of $66.80 expenses incurred in connection with' the de- portation. Cannot Pay Huber. Corporation Counsel M. H. Camp reported on the claim of Fireman Louis Huber for damages caused by an injury sustained while in the ¢ity service.

Mayor Curtis felt that aid should be given the man. Feeling that there is such possibility he asked tor a continuance, Wwhich was 3ranted. Permission was .given the water board to advertise for bids to carry through the first installment of the city’s plans for ‘developing the water supply. The board was authorized to expend funds for borings at Burling- ton. Sprinklers for Town Home. The charity board petitioned for permission to spend 800 in painting town farm properties. An expendi- ture fo that amount was authorized as was $600 for a sprinkling system at the Town Farm annex. The amount asked for is but one-quarter of what is asked by sprinkler com- panies. The plan which it is pro- posed to use was prepared by Coun- cilman William Wall. The mayor and Councilman A. G. Crusberg character- ized the present buildings, without sprinklers, as fire-traps. A communication from John Barry council, A. R. I. B., commend- Ing the council for its expression of hope for peace in Ireland, was placed on file. A challenge from the municipal baseball team of Hartford to the local officials was accepted and a com- mittee authorized to act on the mat- ter.

The commission also notified the city of its favorable action on. the petition of the Connecticut company for the right to relay tracks on South Main street. The communication was placed on file. Mayor Curtis reported on the re- sults of his efforts to have gas:and electric lighting rates in .this city re- duced. In the former matter, officials of the New Britain Gas Light com- pany have given practical assurance that action will be taken in the mat- ter and a cut of approximately 11 per cent. will be put into effect next month.

Officials of the g¢ompany. in- formed the mayor that under present conditions such a move would not be formed the mayor that under present he has not let up in his effort to possible. The mayor announced that Jn communication with officials of bring about the reduction and is now the company to that end. Alderman Paonessa expressed him- self as pleased with what has been done for a reduction in gas rates and urged that the Connecticut Light & Power company be obliged to come down. Resolutions Passed. ¥ The following résolutions on the Geath of Councilman Fmil Malmgren were adopted: “Whereas it has pleased Almighty God in His infinite wisdom, to remove from his earthly labors our former friend and colleague, Emil F. Malm- gren, on the 24th day of July, 1921, ‘Whereas, by his passing we feel that this honorable body has suf- fered .the keen and distinct loss of a member whose pléasing personal- ity and advice in counsel had in- gratiated himself with all. There- fore pa it : f “‘Resolved: That this common coun- cil convey to his bereaved family its sincere sympathy in this sad hour, an expression of its ap- so cheerfully and ably rendered the city by him, that a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the min- utes of the common council and one forwarded to the bereaved family.” The proposed ordinance, repealing the section of the ordinances by which parking in front of the Cen- ter church is permitted and creating in that space a jitney station, where all jitney lines in the city would terminate on return trips, prepared by the ordinance committee of ~the common council, was held out on advice of Mayor Curtls. The mayor, scanning the scheduled business prior to the meeting, noticed that the proposed ordinance conflict- ed with the order of the public util- ities commission in that the latter order states specifically that at least one jitney line shall terminate at Clark & Brainer's store on Main street, and rather than have the council adopt a measure in conflict with a public utilities commission or- der, he had the proposed new or- dinance withheld.

RALD, THURSDAY., AUGUST 18, 1021. LECTURER TO BUY | TRACTOR MADE HERE' Comes Here to Decliver Loctur OKlahoma Instructor to Make | $3500 Purchase here. A statement made on the lecture platform at the Chautauqua last night by Harry R. McKeen, who is director of Community Interests with the University of Oklahoma, that he had ‘made a $500 purchase at a local factory led to the discovery that Mr. McKeen, while not definite- ly conicluding the sale yesterday, has decided to purchase one of the new N.B. tractors made by the New Brit- ain Machine company. Mr. McKeen has a fruit and berry farm in the northern part of Ar- kansas and he is getting. this farm in shape for more extensive cultiva- tion. He was invited to visit the plant of the New Britain Machine company vesterday by Vice-President Abram Buol and was taken in charge by Edward Glass, who is the head of the tractor department. Before he left Mr. McKeen stated that as soon as he gets his place in shape so that he can use an N.B. tractor, which will be ’some time this fall, he will send for one. That he really has decided to purchasg is shown by his statement from the olatform last night. As though to refute statements that Chautauqua people take a lot of money out of town and do not leave any hers, Ralph Schmoyer, busines representative, who left last night -for Washington, N. J., also made a purchase amounting to $55 at a local clothing store. —_— UNEARTH OLD TEMPLE. Ruins of Dorian Structures Found on Coast of Corinth Gulf. Athens, Aug. 18.—Ruins of a great ifemple have been unearthed at Sik- von, a city on the southern shore of the Gulf of Corinth, which in the fourth century before the Christian e1a was one of the principal cities of Creece. The fou .cCations aud pillars would seem to ircicate that the tem- ple waa built by the urians who cap- tured the town from the Aegalean lcnians and held it for several cen- ‘uries. Experts who have visited the new evcavations declare that the temple was sacred to the worship of Artemis, sister of Apollo and goddess of the chase in the ancient Greek myth- ology. 3,5,10, 15, 20 Gallon Wine Presses ] | .
