BERLIN NEWS BERLIN JUDICIARY HAS BUSY SEASON 7 Cases Prosecuted This Month to Date 4 DR. GRIMSHAW DIES IN N. Y. " Youth Is Committed to State Refor- matory by Judge Griswold—Tax Rate to Be Laid This Evening for Fire District—To Entertain. With the month only a little over halt gone there have been 17 cases prosecuted at the Berlin town court thostly the result of unusual activi- ties of the state police and the local constables. The turnpike has been a race course for automobilists for a long period, but owing to the good work of Mr. Johnson, one of the statc officers, coupled with the assistance of Constable Ventres, the thorough- fare is becoming safer for travel At the session of the court Tues- day evening, Henry Ludorf of New Britain, was fined $30 and costs for' speeding on Berlin street. Constable Ventres asserted on the stand that he found it necessary to drive 652 miles an hour In order to overtake him. Last night's session resulted in the commitment to the State Reform wchool of the youth who broke into Cassolino’s store last week The youngster admitted his connection with other breaks which have oc- curred here during the past year or more. Several of those with whom he had associated have since been sent to either the Reform school or to the Cheshire Reformatory. The continued efforts of Prosecutor C. F. Lewis to wipe out the lawless ele- ment in the town has been highly successful and it is not belleved that there will be any further trouble of this nature. The court officials have been ex- ccedingly busy for the past several months with court duties and the in- crease of the salaries of the prosecu- tor and the judge of the town court to $600 a year is warranted by the increased amount of work to be done, ia the opinion of the majority. Three and four alghts a week is the res- ular court schedule. Tax May Be Levied. Further Information as to the fire district meeting called for this eve- ning was obtained this morning par- ticularly as to the tax rate to be levied this year calling for more than four mills. There is a remote possi- bility that the levying of the rate may be postponed until another ses- slon, but according to those familiar with the situation it Is probable that this evening's business will wind up the affairs of the district for the sea- son. New lights are desired in the Worthington district, and if they are authorized by those residing within the district, a tax sufficlent to cover the cost of Installation will be lald. It is therefore considered expedient that all interested attend the session called for 8 o'clock, this evening in the Town Hall Dr. Grimshaw Dies. Friends of Dr. Charles B. Grim- shaw, for many years a summer resi- dent In Kensington, will be grieved to learn of his death at the Roosevelt hospital In New York city yesterday.

PLAINVILIE NEWS_ NEW OFFICERS ARE Democrats Make Change in Constable Force STOLEN GHECKS REGOVERED Advent Church Elects Officers — Fire Department Members Will go to Manchestc: Tomorrow — Standard 0Oil Stolen Checks Recovered. Another radical chango was seen in thg force of constables following tha democratic caucus held at the town hall last night, when threa new mem- bers were added to the force. With the change the republicana put over their caucus Monday night, tha force o! officers of the town will al- most he an entirely new one, with tha exception of a few old reliable mem- bers still hanging on. There wera other appointments on the various boards but no drastic changes wera seen. All nominations were made from tha floor and a nominating committea wai not used. The following is the result of the caucus: Town clerk, Robert C. Usher; selectman, Edward P. Prior and Fred Spencer; treasurer, William S. Eaton; tax collector, Willis J. Hemingway: constables, John Conlon, David Erbe, Thomas Royce and Andrew Hogan; grand juror, William J. Foran; regis- trar of voters, Peter Duffy; board of relief, A. D. Cady; auditors, Frank G. Osborne; school committee, Frank G. Osborne and Joseph T. McCarthy, and library directors, William J. Foran and Misy Helen Brock. The nomination of Miss Brock on the library board places her as the second woman in Plainville to hold a local office. Miss Brock was unani- mously elected. She is an ardent worker not only for organizationa of the town, but for other places as well. Edward P. Prior's election as select- man will be his eighth consecutive year and he has always served the officc well. Fred Spencer has also served at intervals and ia well ac- quaintcd with the routine of the office affairs, The new members of the constabul- ary will aid in the betterment of the force 1n the opinion of the democratic committee. Coupled with the others named by the republicans, they will bring the local force up to the stand- ard. David Erbe, Thomas Royce and Andrew Hogan, new nominations, are all weil known locally and will un- doubtedly serve in their duties faith- fully. The nomination of John Conlon as Constable again, despite his intention of resigning which was over ruled was nominated for another term. This will make his 13th year on the force. Surprising as it was to many of the voters, there had not been one woman at the caucus during the entire ses- sion. The general opinion had been that they had taken great interest in the election and would attend the cau- cus to get better acquainted with the method of nominating officers. There were some 50 men in attendance. Checks Recovered. The old saying that “time will tell,”” worked out yesterday afternoon when a large packet of checks, the property of the Standard Oil company at Rail- road square waa found by a man employed by the section department of the railroad company in the rear of the Standard Steel and Bearings company plant while he was removing some ties from the ground. These checks had been stolen out of the safe about seven months ago with other valu- ables. Evidently the thieves had realized the uselessness of attempting ea cash them and had hidden them un- der the pile of ties. No trace of the rob- bers could be found and the state police had been working on the scene. Court Case Tonight. Frank Higgins, of New Britain ave- nue, Hartford, will be arraigned in the local court tonight charged with reckless driving. Higgins was ar- rested by Constable Phillip Marino last Saturday as the result of a col- iision on the New Britain-Plainville |road late Friday night when the car owned and driven by Myer Stein- house of Bristol, was hurled through the fence which borders the highway. Higgins is alleged to have driven on to New Britain where the police ap- prehended him en Arch street as he was driving with a tire completely torn off the rim and the running board missing. He denied any com- plicity in the accident and claimed to have had a blowout as he was on his way from Meriden. Tracks of the rim, however, caused the police to suspect him and he was arrested. Wedding Announced.” The coming wedding of Miss Nellie Donahue of Plantsville, popular office employe at the Trumbull Electric Manufacturing company of this town to Raymond F. Dardis of Bristol, has been announced. The marriage will take place on September 27. Miss Donahue was tendered a mis- cellaneous surprise shower at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Phelps of East Broad street, Plainville, Tucs- day night, and received many gifts. Danting was enjoyed during the eve- ning and a buffet lunch was served. Clifford May Body Expected. The body of Clifford May of Union- ville avenue, local ex-serviceman who was killed while in France, is ex- pected to arrive in Hoboken tomor- row. The body will be taken to this town and it will be given a military funeral by Brock-Barnes post. Advent Church Officers. The Advent Christian church held its annual meeting last evening. Re- ports of officers showed a good vear but it is hoped to make the present vear a better one. Plans were discuss- ed for malking improvements on the church property and a committee ap- pointed consisting of F. Peace, F. J.

With the baseball season nearing its end, interest seems to be lacking. The management of both local teams, how- ever, intends to finieh the season. The Aces will go to New Hartford Sunday afternoon to meet the American Legion team of that place. They will go by auto truck and leave Plainville center at 12:30 o’clock. This will be the last game ol the season for the Aces. They have been successful in making the season one to be remembered and the management wishes to thank the pa- trons »f the town for their ardent sup- port during their games here. Under the efficient management of Ray Neft, of the Standard Steel and Bearings company, the team has risen to a high standard and tops the Central Con- necticut league. The club will un- doubtedly organize again next yvear. The Plainville A. C. will go to Sims- bury Sunday afternoon and play the first game of a probable series of three. Simsbury headed the Iartford County league last season and wishes to play the locals to see which is the better team of the two. Simsbury did not enter the league this year. Firemen on Outing. Practically the entire fire depart- ment will be absent from the town to- morrow as they will attend the Man- chester Field day.

The Plainville Junior Food Army fair and exhibit is in progress at the Plainville town hall and will continue until tomorrow afternoon. There have been more entries this year than ahy previous demonstration and the offi: cials in charge are enthusiastic over the success of the fair. The judging of prizes will take place late this af- ternoon and will be made by Ray- mond James of the Hartford County Farm bureau. As an additional inducement, Henry Trumbull is offering an award of $5 for the best general exhibit. This will be a tempting offer and it is believed that many grown-ups will strive to seek this prize as well as the young farmers of the town. Through Prin- cipal Orrin L. Judd of the local gram- mar school, the pupils have been in- Arthur R. 127 Main St. structed in the fair and are attending in large numbers. The fair will come to a close tomorrow morning and the exhibitors may call for their products in ths afternoon. . Forestville News.
