ADVISE SILENT POLICEMAN FOR CLIFF STREET CORNER| There is a probability that a silent | policeman may be placed at the cor- ner of Main street and CIiff street in order to obviate the liability to auto- mobile accidents there. Several auto- ! mobile owners and drivers have called the attention of the police commis- sioners to this spot and the practice of automobile drivers shooting across | there at high speed in order to make ' the Cliff street hil. names of A silent policeman at this point, these automobile men say, would oblige drivers to deflect from - a! straight line in order to get around it, and would make it less likely that they ; would shoot the hill, a practice that is dangerous, as this neighborhood is one | where there are many children who | put in peril by cars running at high speed. This way of gathering speed for the CIiff street hill also presents the dan- ger of collision with other machines coming westward along _Main street alongside the Chelsea Savings bank sidewalk, these automobile drivers| say.

The heavy traffic over the detour the way of West Main street and Dunham street around the West Thames street work has torn up the roads to considerable extent and the detour now is even worse than West Thames street ever was. The part that lies within the city limits is in very zood condition, but the part that lies n the town is_ abomnable. There ire holes in the West Main street part past Maple's corner that are seven or 2ight inches deep and as numerous shell holes in France. The Dunham | treet part from West Main street to h city line is also full of holes and -ocks which are not only disagreeable o ride over but dangerous to traffic. New London bound traffic now pre- el the long detour by the Fair irounds rather than take chances over Junham street. CHARLES E. GASKELL, MYSTIC DRUGGIST, DIES Charles E.
