She spent the night in the | { woman's quarters in the New Brit-| ain pelice station. The girl has caused considerabls trouble to officials of the farm and others, and one of the results of her actions since leaving the institution was the arrest of her father. Hc !was seatenced to juil for harboring a paroled girl. everal days ago. Miss Sweet, paiole officer at the Long Lane Farm, came to Plainville to get the girl after she had run away from the Sisters of St. Joseph at West Hartford, into whose cus- tody she had been paroled. She was seen about the streets for sev- eral days in Plainville, but when of- ficers called at her home they were | unable to get any information aboyt her or her whereabouts. In the New Britain police station cell yesterday, Miss Kempa told a strange atory of having been forced to wed a man for whom she had no {love or liking and from whom #ho scparated immediately after the ceremony. Acrording to the giri, she was takeu to Meriden by her mother and there married to a man 31 years old and of Polish birth. | She was unable to give the name of her husband or to say more than that she was married by a justice of the peace. Investigation at the Meriden town Jclerk’s office yesterday showed that no wedding return had been filed there. However, Town Clerk W liam H. Wilson of Plainville received | a marriage return in the mail this morning which showed that the giri had married Frank Brawz, 31, of | Southington on May 27 at Southing- | ton.

D CONCRETE BRIDGES T0 BE BUILT 500K Council Calls for Bids on Two lmpro_m Stractures RAISE REGISTRARS' PAY| City Fathers Double Recompense nl\ Vour Offcinls—Playground Com- misstouers Named—H. §. Flag at Half Mast—Contracts Awarded. Work on the construction of re- inforced concrete bridges over the Pequabuck river at East street and Mine brook on Stevens street will be started early in July, it was inti- mated last night at a meeting of the eity council when it was voted to advertise for bids to be opened at the July meceting. These improve- ments were recommended last year by Mayor W. Raymond Cdumb. The proposed bridge at East street will provide another connect- ing link between South street, Riverside avenue, and the Memorial boulevard and will permit the de- molition of the present structure, which was closed a number of years ago when Mellon street was opened for travel. The old bridge has been an eyesore and, with its passing, it is understood that steps wjll be tak- en by Albert L. Sessions to raze the old factory building located just northeast of where the new bridge is to be located. The bridge on Stevens strect has been subjected to numerous repairs during the past few years and it has reached the point now where, unless replaced, it would be found neces- sary to close it to traffic. The cost of the two new bridges will be approximately $12,000, but the expense involved will be car- ricd over in the city budget for a term of three years. To Purchase Voting Machines Four new voting machines will he purchased by the city and will be available for the primary election this year, a vote to this effect be- ing taken by the city council last night, The total cost will be $4.000. of which amount $3,850 has already heen appropriated. An additional appropriation of $150 was sanction- ed at last night’s meeting. Last summer four machines were ordered by the city for the national | clection, but when they were re- ceived, it was found that they pro- vided for 40 candidates instead of 30, or ten more than the atandard | machine in use in Bristol. These were refurned to the manufacturer with the request that the 30 candi- date machines be supplied. 1t now develops, however, that the factory no longer makes a 30-candidate ma- chine with the primary attachment, and for this reason the city is obliged' to take the larger apparatus. The additional cost to the city fonl the larger machines will be but $240 | and the price quoted by the manu- facturer calls for delivery F. 0. B. Bristol. Members of the council last night expressed the belief that it was probable the larger machines could be used to very good advan- tage, particularly in the primary elections. Registrars Granted Increase Acting upon the recommendations of Lester G. Bigourney and Joseph F. Dutton, chairmen of the republi- can and democratic town commit- | tees, respectively, ‘the city council , last evening voted to increase the annual salary of the voters in the four from $109 to $200, cight registrars will for this year only also receive an additional $50 for the additional work required in revising the voting lists. Mr. Sigourney., in recommending the increase, pointed out that the work of-the registrars had been more than doubled by the recent act passed by the legislature provid. ing for the preparation of lists alphabetically as to str-eta, He also intjmated that there were probably at least 1,000 names on the lists of the four districts which showd be taken off due to the fact thut the persons had left the city or had died and felt that the additional ex- penditure was warranted. Mr. Dutton, in a brief statement, informed the council that he was en- tirely in accord with Mr. Sigourney’s recommendations and added that in his opinion it would be found neces- sary to cmploy two full time regis- trars within the next four or five years.
