Mayor Wants Children Kept Out of the Streets. Accidents to children by automobiles here recently have caused Mayor Dan- ie] P. Dunn through the press to ask the co-cperation of the parents in avoiding these accidents by keeping the children off the streets. The au- thorities are ‘endeavoring to have driv- ers of cars live up to the rules and ordinances covering the operation of cars; but the city will be unable to protect _the children from injury or death if they are mot kept off the streets, There is a large amount of automobile traffic in the city and ac- cidents will continue to happen unless the parents act in co-operation with the authorities. Mayor Dunn said Tuesday afternoon, in speaking about this matter, that the parents could mot afford to lose their boys and girls, and mothers should emdeavor to keep the children as much as possible on their own home premises and to constantly wamn them about keeping off the streets. TROLLEY PLATES DELAYED. Work of Laying Block Pavement Held Up in Consequence. Mayor Daniel P. Dunn was in Nor- wich Tuesdey on a pilgrimage to the offices of the superimtendent and pur- chasing agents of the Shore Line Elec- tric_company. The company has been holding up the comstruction of the block pavement on Main street because it did not have the needed plates for the track work. This delay in the work to be done has been very annoy- ing because the authorities have beem anxious to have the work all complet- ed by Old Home week. The plates were mislaid somewhere in shipment. Mayor Dunn sald Tuesday afternoon that he expected plates would arrive here Wednesday or Thursday and then the work of placing the tracks in po- sition would be started. Merchants having places of busimess in front of the section of road im question have been particularly annoyed by the pres- ent condition of affair Dana E. Martin Injured. In jumping from a truck wagon near the postoffice Tuesday forenoon, Dana E. Martin, the Bank street liveryman, met with a painful eccident. His foot caught in a rope and he was thrown to the ground, landing on his shqulder. At the same time a barrel on the wag- on became dislodged and fell on Mr. Martin. When Mr. Martin was taken home it was found that he had a frac- ture of the right shoulder, also a pain- ful wound at the shoulder point caused by the barrel. Price of Beef Goes Up Again. Housewives and others purchasing meat for the home have noticed a raise in the price of beef. Inquiries as to the cause for this has resulted in pa- trons being told that it is due to the scareity of grass fed cattle in the market. This raise comes each year about this time, due to the same fact. The local markets are now _paying 13 1-2 cents a pound for the high grade of Dbeef which they desire for their trade. The retail price for the beef varies in markets about the city. Norwich Degree Team Work Praised. Willimantic has another lodge. The latest one in the field is Violet lodge of Rebekahs, No. 57, I. O.
