Fresh impetus to the movement to have a night policeman on duty in Kensington was imparted this morning when it was that two men had attempted gain entrance to two houses in Kensing- ton last night and the night before. ‘The home of Jeremiah Hart near Upson's corner in Kensington was the first one to be selected. About 2 o'clock Friday morning, Mr. Hart| heard dogs barking and, iooking out, saw two men trying to gain entrance at the back of the house. They later went to the frent and were frightenad away when Mr. Hart put on the lights in the house. Last night S8amuel Skene, who lives on Hastings street just east of Upson's corner, was awakened by men try- ing to force an entrance at the rear of his home. They also were fright- ened u-ly het&re wllce could be called:- Residents in the district feel (hll men or. boys know that the district is not patrolled and that it is an casy place to burglarize. The petition in circulation is meet- ing with the favor of the store keep- ers and it is thought that many residents in that section will also sign the request. ‘The matter has been of much dis- cussion in Kensington during the past few weeks. As yet there have been no convictiors for these hold- ups and entries. War Over Carnivals Plans are being made in the New | superintendent, Britain_common. council to send a delegaon to the selectmen of this to n with the request that the car- s in the future be moved from !ln New Britain town line. There has been considerable opposition to having the traveling shows in New Britain, and at the present time they are not allowed within the city lim- is. This is evercome by choosing a lot at the city line and drawing the erowds from New Britain with the same surety as if they were located In the city itself. The owners of the present carni- val were in trouble a few days ago when they advertised the grounds as in Willow Brook park. which is in New Britain. The actual location of the grounds is next to the park and aimost on the New Britain line. It is not known that the Berlin ofticials have any objection to them. and the residents of the town feel that there is no harm in letting them be in town. The grounds after the completion of the show have al- ways been left in a respectable con- dition, and if this is dene in the fu- ture it is not expected that any ac- tion will be taken by the Berlin of- ficials.

After a. decision in favor of the pldintiff, Louis Bielman of this city, had been rendered in his suit for the balance of a bill said to be due him for repairs to an oil burner in a sanitarium in Willimantic of which Dr. Louis I. Mason was the head, At- torney William A. King, who repre- scnted Dr. Mason, gave notice of an appeal to the court of common pleas at a hearing in city court late yea- terday afternoon. Since it will be necessary to ap- peal to superior court on matters un- der $500 after July 1, Judge Stanley J.

Attorney King gained consider- |able fanie in the Jackson murder | case when he was counsel for Trenor A. Rice. Dr. Mason was also men- tioned in the case because of his ac- tivities medical examiner. In this case Bielman claimed that while he was head of an oil burner company in 1924-25 his men made repairs to the oil burner in the sani- tarium and the amount due for his services was $181.16. He went to Dr. Mason and after some dickering the latter handed him a check for $51 which he claimed w all the job was worth. Attorney Williain Hagaerty represented the: plaintiff.
