Rumors of Plant That this town might be the choice of selection of a site for an| assembling plant for the Ford Motor company is widely rumored at the present time. For the past few days two alleged representatives of the company have been looking over suitable property in this town with a view towards purchasing a factory isite here for the assembling activi- ties of the giant concern. While the rumors are not substantiated to any great extent, local residents are hopeful that such honors will be cast upon the town. The central sit- uation of Berlin and its promi- nence to the main highways of the state are claimed as favorable items for consideration. Visiting Minister Rev. William J. Drew of Hamp- ton, Towa, will occupy the pulpit of the Berlin Congregational church at its regular morning services Sunday morning. Rev. Mr. Drew is making a tour through the east and has spoken in several churches in sur- rounding towns. Who Did 1t? Local police authorities are in- dulging in a little sleuthing activi- ties and are in all probability on the verge of announcing an arrest in connection with a loud declaration * | of individual sentiment which was | perched on top ot the memorial | monument at the intersection of | Farmington avenue and Worthington Ridge this morning. The announcement, which was some six feet square, was in the form of a rather shakily printed placard bearing the words, “Good Night Sacco and Vanzetti! That the would-be bulletin posters were all wrong as regards to dates and that the two thus honored in- dividuals are still enjoying compar- atively good health has not de- terred the local officlals from their resolve to track down the guilty persons. Ages estimated as being in- volved run from 16 to 22. The pla- card was hung by ropes to the screaming eagle of freedom who has made his perch on the top of the monument since its erection. Pass- ing motorists who did not approve of the- sentiment expressed tore the sign down. Investigations thus far have discovered that the sign went up at exactly 12:05 this morning. Beyond that no reports have been given out. Entertaining at Dinner Dr. and Mrs. A. J.

The schedule for this season insofar as can be determined will be as follows: Monday, Pythlan Sisters or white night; Tuesday, Knights of Pythias; Wednesd day evenings, Boys and Girls' club Saturday, Open. 1t is possible that there may be ! some delay in the program relative to the reception of the fresh air| children. Mrs. A. L. Burgreen, chairman of the committee in charge of the children is expected home within the next ten days and it is probable that final action in the mat- ter will be deferred until her ar- rival. Some of the residents on Savage Hill have requested gas service in that district when local installation is made. This matter will be left up the gas company in all probability as (there is conslderable labor in- volved in laying the mains over the hill, PIRATE STEANER LADEN WITH RICH LIQUOR CAPTURED (Continued from First Page) through the waters of the Kill Von Kull. In his haste to escape the helmsman ran his boat into two an- chored sand barges, cutting one of them in two and causing two men on board the barge to be thrown headlong into the water. The rum runner careened onward through the darkness until it ran its prow high and dry onto a sand bar. After Tescuing the two men | thrown into the water police mnoti- fied the coast guard and a cutter pulied the steamer from the sand bar. The cutter took the steamer and its crew to anchorage close to the 8tatue of Liberty where it wa kept under close guard beside the Sebastopol. The capture of the Ansonia and the 23 persons aboard was the work of a single coast guardsman, George A. Lomax, in charge of a patrol boat, who boarded the ship. He de- tected the smell of liquor as soon as he stepped on deck, he said, and as several nondescript persons moved toward him, he drew his automatic and ordered, “Stay where you are. You're all under arrest.” While holding his prisoners at bay, he hailed the pollce boat Gypsy and sent for reinforcements. Customs offictls who boarded the Ansonfa later found the prisoners close-mouthed, and werc unable to learn whether all 23 men were members of the crew or whether some had gone aboard at Staten Is- land and been carried away when the steamer made her hasty depar- ture.

'WILD MAN IN AUTO HUNTED BY POSSE New Jersey Berry Pickers Get Real Fright South Amboy, N. J., Aug. 12.—A posse of citizens and policemen -of South River are searching the woods around Wolf Swamp for a ‘“wild man” who rides in an automobile and who has been terrorizing young women and girls picking huckle- berries. Since early in the week nine women have reported that a wild- looking, bearded man in tattered clothes has jumped at them from behind bushes, chasing them and making them upset their berries. Until yesterday the man had been frightened off by their screams, but three girls were chased by him this morning and one was injured in a successful attempt to fight off his attack. Citizens of South River formed a posse under the command of Chlet of Police Eberwein and started for the spot where the at- tack had occurred. As the party entered the woods, the man suddenly jumped from the bushes and made off before the men armed with clubs were able to reach him. Shortly afterwards a car was seen passing on a little-used woodland road and the fugitive was identified as the driver. A general alarm has been sent throughout Middlesex county and the posse is guarding all roads leading from the woods.

B. Robbins, city health officer, and Dog Warden Thomas 1. Ryan. The heads of three dogs, killed yesterday, have been sent to the state labora- tories in Hartford and a definite re- {port will be received within the next | tew days by local ofiicials. Dr. Rob- bins explained that in a number of instances the rabies germ had been known to remain for at least a year and a half in a period of incuba- tion and that sometimes in almost a positive case of rabies it was im- possible to locate the germ at all. Some owners of dogs in the city have expressed the belief that a puppy is immune from an attack of rabies, Councilman Homer H. Judd, who has owned a number of valu- able dogs and who is noted as a sportsman throughout the state, |stated flatly that he did not believe |the police Lugg of Federa! street and which was killed after it had bitten a num- Ler of people, was suffering from the dread disease although Dr. Rob- bons stated that the analysis made of the head in Hartford showed the case to be a positive one. George H. Quinion, also well known as a hunter and sportsman, in discussing the matter this morn- Ing, stated that oftentimes young dogs would present all of the symp- tons of rabies whereas they were not afflicted with the disease. He cited as an example two young fox hounds which he purchased from a Pennsylvania kennels. The dogs upon their arrival were lvely and continued so until they had reached the age of about four months. At that time they became i1, snapping at various objects which came with- in the range of their teeth and frothing at the mouth. However, they readily responded to treatment and have not been sick since. A number of hunters in the eity {have all spoken about the difticulty in raising hounds. While the ani- | mals thrive for possibly three or | four months, they suddenly become smitten with some unknown ailment and in many instances die. For this reason, most of the fox hounds pur- chased by local men are mature dogs and immune from the diseases which naturally seem to attach themselves to puppies. New Jersey Fireman Visitor Captain James Halpin of the Elizabeth, N. J., fire department is the guest this week of John Burns of Divinity streef. Armory Bids Solicited Architects have been invited by State Comptroller Frederick M.

Inspector | of | puppy, owned by W. H.! sist in routing the large flock of . starlings which had settied for the: night in the large trees adjolning’ the street. As in the last instance, the powerful searchlight attached to the central fire station truck was played upon the trees and as an” additional incentive to get the birds to leave, the fire bell was rung for. several minutes. The din proved to much for the starlings and they de- parted in a flock which nambered thousands for some other part of the city. City officials admit they are plain- ly stumped for a means to keép the birds from the center of the eity permanently. When the undesir- able condition caused by the star- lings is eliminated in one spot, it immediately crops out in anether and then it is simply a question of beginning all over again. It is possi- ble that chemicals may ultimately be resorted to. City Food Inspector T Dr. I R. Vail, city food, milk and herd inspector is confined to his home by illness.

TILDEN SMASHES WAY T0 VICTORY Deleats Brugnon, French Aot Mests Finals Winner Southampton, N. Y., Aug. 12 (M~ William T. Tilden, II, defeated Jacques Brugnon of France, 6-2, 8-1, 6-0 in the semi-finals of the Meadow club’s annual invitation tennis tour- nament. Brugnon rallied to the net often but gained little by it as Tilden’s drives went shooting by him for placements. Tilden was contént to remain back for the most part and brought to bear little of his smash- ing power at the net. Bruga best weapon was a twisting ground stroke which on rare occasions he was able to place just out éf réach of Tilden's slashing racket Ar. Tilden obviously did not unléake the full fury of his game againdt the French player. By his victory Til- den won the right to play in the final against the winner of the match be- tween Rene LaCoste, champlon’ ef the United States, and Geéorge Latt, Chicago, later today. Some 30,000 American Leglon- naires, returning to France hekt September, will have the advantage of a round-trip ticket t6 and from the points of embarkation for the price of a one-way fare. Almost 100 uses have beén found lfor peanuts.
