About 20 applications for water supply have been received by the committee of the Kensington Fire dis- trict up to date. A meeting of the committee was held on Monday and several applications were acted upon then. F. L. Norton, chairman of the fire district committee, says that over 100 applications are expected before the system is completed. Houses are to be connected up as fast as pos- sible, as it is the desire of the com- mittee to have the system completed before cold weather comes. In Kensington the pipes are being laid in recobd time, and the workmen in Berlin are fast completing their work. In Berlin, ditches are being dug on the Meriden road past the in- tersection of the Meriden road and the Middletown road. Six inch pipe is to be laid through Hudson street and down the Middletown road for some distance. A large gang of workmen is employed on the job. E. B. Cur- tis, contractor in charge of the work, expects to be finished by the first of November. The pipes are laid everywhere in Kensington except on the New Brit- ain road, and the gang is starting work on that portion of the system today. Are Attending Meeting.

Thére was a good attendance each afternoon and evening and the booths were well patronized. On Saturday evéning a good crowd was present, which al- lcwed mioney to flow like water, It is expected that another fair will be held next fall, as the one held last week proved to be so popular.

WL New Britain THITTI | {ITILHIH Jand paying dues shail receive a card| In order to show what has been accomplished in the way of public improveinents, a statement of the board of selectmen is printed here- with. It sums up all that has been done to improve the town of Berlin during the past year. It follows: “In presenting our annual report for the 'past year we wish to call your attention to the following things ac- complished: Three new concrete bridges have been built. The first one just west of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Company and the Ledge school, the second on Lower Lane, north of the home of George J. Reed, and the third south of the residence of Jacob C. Bauer. New reinforced concrete floors have been laid on the large bridge near the New Britain sewer beds and on the bridge on Christian Lane, near Stiles & Reynolds Brick Company. Several wooden hridges have been re- placed by corrugated iron culverts. “The Blue Hills road has been put in .very good condition by the use of gravel and cinders. This was accom- plished with the help and co-opera- tion of some of the residents cf that section with their teams. Many other roads in town have been greatly im- proved with cinders and gravel. The installing of the water system in town has temporarily put many of the roads in bad condition and it will take several months of settling before we can expect great improvement. “A new three-blade road drag has been purchased and also a new road scraper to replace the one used by the town for over twenty years. “A new fire escape has been built on the south side of the Town Hall and minor repairs made. “There haye been many calls on the selectman for aid for the poor during the past year. Although a little over $2,500 has been spent, $862.75 has been collected in rebates. This was due to the persistent effort on the part of the first selectman and some of the money due extended over a period of several years.' Notes of Interest.

White Plains, N. Y., Associated Press).—Supreme Court Justice Morschauser today reserved decision on an wpplication for con- firmation of the report made by Ref- eree Gleason in the Stillman divorce case. 7 Justice Morschauser, who an- nounced that he would make his de- cision known before next Friday added that he was ready to confirm the report today but that counsel for Mrs. James A. Stillman had asked him to take his time so that if the banker carried the case to the appel- late division it could not be said that the report had been confirmed with- out careful study of the report and evidence, The application was by Mrs. James Stillman who was cleared in the re- port of charges of adultery with Fred Beauvals, Indian guide, and joined in by John E. Mack, guardian for baby Guy Stillman, whose legitimacy was upheld. Willlam Rand, counsel for the hus- band, asked that Justice Morschauser sign an order permitting Mr. Stillman to see the referee's report and any other documents which are on file in Carmel. He declared that yesterday officials in Carmel refused to allow him to see the referee's report and Justice Morschauser immediately signed the order. Mr. Rand also asked that the ref- eree's report be quashed. “To any fair and unbiased mind,” he said, “the testimony conclusively shows that the finding of the referees was erroneous.’ 4 (By member containing ‘he new constitution and by-laws of the Plainville Agriculture and Pouitry assoclation since its consolidation The officials the organization realize that an associated effort must be maintained in order to insure the | 3rowth of the club and for improve- ments to come.
