Business men are in a quandary as to how to handle the street dust prob- lem this summer. The new pavement can neither be oiled nor watered. Careful daily sweeping seems to be the only solution. cuss 's influence on conti- nental literature. One of the pupils of a class that has been studying Julius Sn.lnr will give Antony's funeral ora- lon. The programme will end with a edict that was prongunced Tuesday by Chief Michael Grimshaw. This community has been startled by the appalling automobile-mot- - cycle accident on the West Side Mon- lay. night. It brought home the fact that; there is any amount of reckless driving in Danielson. Every day and every hour of the day there are lations of the law and Chief Grim- shaw is determined that they shall be stopped. He gives this warning as a final one to be followed only by ar rests, and it won’t make any difference who the violator happens to be, wheth- er he drives a high-priced flver or a tin jitney, whether he has wealth or is without it, if he gets to speeding he will be arrested. It is not to be inferred from this that the West Side accident was duc to speeding; rather that that resret- able affair has awakened the commu- nity to the constant danger to life and limb from reckless motor vehicle op- eration. The accident on the West Side was a sickening one and it was apparently of the unavoidable kind, but the lesson it taught was that greater caution must be exercised and that laws must be obeyed. Chief Grimshaw says that this week will not come to an end without hav. ing witnessed some arrests for vio- lating the motor vehicle laws of his warning is not heeded to the letter— and this applies to every street and every driver, without any exceptions.

At the Day-Kimball hospital in Put- nam Tuesday afterncon Miss Lillian Parker, who was so terribly injured in the accident on the West Side on Mopday evening, was declared to be in an exceedingly critical condition and there was little hope of her re- covery. Miss Parker’s tlothing was saturated with blood in spots, when sie was picked up on the West Side, but it was found at the hospital that this blood came from her ears, indi- cating the fracture at the base of the skull, and not from cuts. Since the accident she has been unconscious or ~=mi-conscious and it is believed does not realize what has befallen her, so suddenly did the accident occur. Frank Moore, at whose home Phil- ip Caffery, who was Kkilled, and Miss Parker were visiting, sald Tuesday that he was in his yard when the crash came. He heard Miss Parker screech and almost immediately the sound of the collision rang out. Mr. Moore had lighted the lamp on Mr. Caffery’s machine and made it ready for him to depart. Mr. Moore cannot recall whether ™Mr. Caffery sounded the horn on the motorcycle as he rode the machine out of his drive- way, but. says that he had been sounding it to call Miss Parker from Mr. Moore's home to start the trip to Attawaugan. Miss Parker and Mr: Moore were former schoolmates. At Attawaugan there is profound sorrow over the death of Mr. Caffery He was one of the finest young men in the village and evefyone was his friend. Miss Parker was also well liked there. George Eastment, who was driving the automobile at the time of the crash, is familiar with the operation of cars. contrary to the statement of many that he was learning to drive. He was driving the car in the inter- est of a friend who intended to buy it, riding at the time with Barl Wood, who was demonstrati it for the Moosup garage at which it is owned.

Nilan to_ the office of bishop of the diocese of Hartford, the Catholic Transcript says: 11 a. m.—Devo: rs ago Thursday Right Rev. John J. Nilan was consecrated bishop of Hartford. Never in the history of the diocese has the growth in popula- tion been so considerable as during the period which has intervened since that date. We have just passed the half million mark, and 500,000 souls looking to the spiritual leadership of one man Jjustifies the assumption that his cares and responsibilities are neither few nor light. “The episcopal burden is a grave one, but he that bears it cannot make it lighter by sitting down and repin- ing over its magnitude. Bishop Nilan has fallen to his task with unabated enthusiasm and with an abiding real- ization of the seriousness and sacred- ness of the labors which he is called upon to perform. His success has been in keeping with his industry and fidel- ity. “After six years of unobtrusive ef- fort, Bishop Nilan has demonstrated to clergy and laity alike that the in- terests of the great churgh of Con- necticut are confilded to safe hands. There is ‘no stagnation, no sinking back, progress is visible everywhere. Vigilance and foresight appear in the formation of new parishes and in the establishment of religious centers where the faith and morals of people of every nationality are safeguarded Lack of Coal In Spain.
