Berlin ! ——— — FRANGIS DEMING T0 BE CANDIDATE Annonnces That He Will Run for Rep. on Repnbllcan Ticket TOWN MEETING NEXT MON. Erenlng Schml Opens—Dr. Koh Re- turms To Yale — Town Mecting— ews Other Interesting Itéms About The Town. 4 Francis Deming, secretary and treasurer of the Berlin Savings bank and a man well known in town af- fairs, has announced his candidacy for the position of representative to the general assembly on the republi- can ticket. The following letter states his platform: “To the voters of the lin: “The voters of the Town of Beriin this year are confronted with an un- usual situation in that there is a sur- plus of candidates for representative to the next general assembly and 1 desire to clearly and frankly state why 1 am a candidate. “There is taking place in this town the greatest improvement that has ever been made and that means more for the comfort of the, people and makes possible the development and growth of the town than any other undertaking in- the history of Berlin, unamely the installing of a public water system. “But the necessary work partly done, “The Worthington Fire District will need additional legislative action to permit the issuance of bonds to fi- nancé the enterprise. “The Kensington Fire district will also need permjgsion from the legis- lature to issue miore bonds if those not now served by the present system are to have the benefits enjoyed by a part of the dietrict. “Both the Worthington and Ken- sington districts promised as far as they legally could, that those residing outside the water service should not be taxed for the expenses of the sys- tem. This will rquire legislative ac- tion, possibly in the formation of tax- ing districts. “Having been the prime advocate of the formation of a fire district and taken an active part in bringing about the improvements now being made also as your representative having se- cuted the legislative action making possible. these improvements and knowing the needs of the district, it {s but natural that those most inter- ested should look to me to finish the work and I have been urged to be- come a candidate with the promise that the necessary support would be given to secure my nomination. “This is the reason why I am a can- didate, not for personal benefit or honor, but for service. “Whoever is nominated accepts no light responsibility.” “FRANCIS DEMING."” Town Meecting Monday The annual meeting of the town of Berlin will be held next Monday from 6 o'clock in the morning to 2 o'clock p. m, for the purpose of voting for one assessor, three years; one mem- ber of the hoard of rellef, three years; three members of school com- mittee, three years; three selcctmen, one collector of taxes, two auditors, #ix grand jurors, seven constabies, two registrars of voters, for term of one year.

For the work being done by this officer it is thought by many that the salary be- ing received by him is exceedingly small and should be increased to at least $1,000, The-institution of speed laws in and about the town. Due to the absence of speed regulations a large number of accidents, that could be averted, are occurring constantly. The down grade running north on Berlin street is a temptation to motorists to ‘let out” and the intersecting strest by Blake and Woodruff's store, makes the danger great. Other business ~ regarding the town will be transacted at the busi- ness meeting. Evening School Starts The Berlin evening echool began its winter sessions in the Kensington Grammar school last evening with a sizeable number enrolled. The ses-! slons of the classes are to be held on Mendays, Wednesdays and Fridays throughout the winter months. It is expected that a larger number will take an interest in the work than did | last year. Upon viewing the initial at- tendance last evening it appears that the school will be well attended this season The members of the High school have adjusted themselves very well to the new system and Superintendent of Schools B. R. Showalter is well pleas- €d with the way in which the pupils have adjueted themselves to the inew conditions. The parents and teachers have cooperated splendidly with the school board in making the *few sys- tem a success, Mecting of Primary Teachers A meeting of the primary teachers was held yesterday afternoon at the Hubbard school, East Berlin. A dem- onstration of primary reading was| given by Miss Edith Northrup, which was very good and favorably com- mented upon. After the demonstra- tion a 'round rle talk regarding the work was held and Superintendent of Schools B. R. Showalter gave a short talk on certain technical phases of the subject | Committee Meeting. The regular weekly meeting of the Kensington fire district was heid last| evening=at the district office. Rou-| tine business was disc:ssed. Returns to Work.

Contractor Curtis has put a number of qxtra men on the job this week. | He has needed them for some time, but due to shortage of labor he has not been able to secure extra help until this week. The work is pro- ‘gressing rapidly now and the first of ) November will probably see the com- pletion of the mains. A shipment of 6 inch pipe iz ex- pected the latter part of this week. By the end of the week all the pipc along the road will have been laid. Berlin Items.

Barnes Post Special Never before in the history of the town, with the exception of at elec- tion times, has the town hall present- ed such a crowded condition as it did last night when practically every room in the bullding was occupied and some business was being transacted. In the court room, Judge Meritt O. Ryder and Prosecutor Stanley §, Gwillim were trying Alex Laskowskl, of New Britain for reckless driving, when he ran into the car owned by Sam Greenberg on the New Britain road. In the selectmen's office, the Flainville sanitary and sewer district committee was discussing the need of a sewerage system in the town and in the probate court room, Judge Ed- ward P. Prior and Prosecutor Willlam J. Foran were trying Antonio Selundi of Waterbury for assault upon Mike Zarillo of this town. The firemen werd ho'ding a meeting in their rooms. The library doors were thrown open in or- der to accommodate the large number of witnesses called in at the trials. There was very little room left for the spectators who came to hear the cases and those who did get in were the “early birds.” The corrdors were crowded and all ears were strained to hear both trials which were going on at once. New Britain Man Discharged The case of Alex Laskowsky, for alleged reckless driving was an inter- esting one and several witnesses were called. Alex was charged that on the day of September 14, he ran into an automoblle owned and driven by Sam Greenberg, also of New Britain which resulted in damages to Greenberg's car on the fender and front. The crash occurred w~ar the stone quarry on the New Britain road. Greenberg trought ‘the charge against Laskow- sky and the New Britain man was ar- rested on a warrant served by the po- lice of that city. After all the evi- dence was presented, lLaskowsky was lischarged. Waterbury Man Fined Antonio Selundi, of Waterbury, was fined $5 and costs by Judge Edward P. Prior for an assault upon Mike Zarillo of this town. The argument started Sunday afternoon at Rock- well's field, when the Waterbury man is alleged to have resented the ac- nack at the ball game and struck him. Zarillo is suffering from a split lip rom the fracas. Attorney Patrick F. McDonough was counsel for Zarillo. Firemen Meet While all this trouble of trying ‘ases was being conducted on the sec- md floor of the busy town hall lasr ight, the Plainville Hose company held its meeting as called and discuss- | *d the plans for going to Windsor this Saturday. The firemen of that town will ho!d a big field day with nany events and the local company will attend and enter the competi- tions. They will be accompanied by the Plainville Fife and Drum corps who will march with them in the par- 1de, Sewer Commiittee Mcets The Plainville sanitary and sewer listrict committee selected a had time for their meeting last night but never- theless managed to hear themselves discussing the sewer question of the town above the din of the otheg trials zoing on and the talk of the specta- tors in the corridors. Frank T. Wheeler, chairman, reported today that the matter of looking over the nap of the town was the main issue 2f the session last night. The map measures six feet square and shows the exact high and low spots in Plain- ville which make it very difficuit to install a sewer unless some method can be made which would allow for one or more hasins as disposal ends The committee would like to post the map in a public place that the people may get a better idea of what the town is up against but the size of the map does not permit this. Hughes—Schwenk Miss Anna Elizabeth Schwenk, daughter of Mrs. Louise A. Flanders, of West Main street, Plainville, and | Joseph C. Hughes, Jr., son of Mr. and | Mrs, Joseph C. Hughes, of Hartford, were married yesterday afternoon in the rectory of St. Joseph's cathedral at Hartford. The wedding ceremony was performed by Monsignor T. I'| 1 Duggan.

Many of those who have seen the motion picture films of the contest maintain that Carpentier was clear tripped by his opponent. Victor Brey er, one of the judges, is one of thos Paris. Sept. Press)—The taking this view but he expresses the | belief that such a foul by Siki could | not have affected the outcome as Car- pentier was already a beaten man. May Yet Change Mind. Some of the newspaper exper it is possible the federation may yet award the bout to Carpentier. In any case Descamps is set upon ing another meeting hetween his pro- tege and Siki as soon as possible. Georges now bears few marks the beating he suffered, but his physi- cians are keeping him in bed because of his sprained ankle and fractured right hand. He broke the Siki's skull. “He has a hard head, that negro, says Georges. "I was wrong in try say ing to get him by those hooks to the | Jaw." Will Not Retire. Georges himself is not considering retiring and scoffs at statements that he is planning a stage career. He is a boxer, main one “as long as I have strength to put up my fists.” Meanwhile the victorious looking for new heights to conquer and although he is a light heavy- weight has his eyes on Jack Demp- sey's crown.
