Tuesday was entry day for Brooklyn fair—the day when fair work speed in order that the show may or the crowds that will appeas Nhsl!l”‘t not be apparent ar ‘who come éach The building at fire headquarters is practically in re of the mew motor- “ der truck which is expected within a week or so. With the arrival of this plece of apparatus the department will have the best equipment in its Mstory. With the installation of the water works, . back in the §0's, the old hand pump was t. It was indicated late Tuesday after-; noon that Brooklyn fair is going to be be well worth while this year. It has at- tracted entries from various towns of the county. The cattle show will be very ®00d as also will be the display of vage- tables and fruits, products of the dairy and of the housewives' art. The grange section will be of special interest. From all points of the compass the midway men put in their appearance Tuesday and began erecting their stands and show tents. Eftort that has been underway for ‘weeks to make the fair attractive were showing productive results Tuesday. Of the 100 pheasants that arrived here Tuesday morning from the state game farm at Madison all wers in first class condition excepting one—a bird that had been Injured and died while en route to Danielson. ‘The consignment was forwarded in three large shipping cases, later taken out in three automoblle and the birds re- leased at various points within three or four miles of Danielson. The birds were about half-grown, but lively and in good eondition and in about every instance be- feeding immediately upon release. s of 6 1o 12 were released at a time, in order that the shipment might Dbe scattered over a wide area. Men who are famillar with pheasants and their habits had charge of the re- leasing and selected only ideal places whers foods the birds like are plentiful and whers cover is provided. Another heavy frost Tuesday merning eame as a reminder that the fuel problem will soon become more pressing. Observ- srs state that practieally no hard coal is t moving over the raliroad line through elson, unle: t is going through on night trains. Probably well under 10 ercent. of the homes in Danielson would listed as having any supply of coal at all, and those who are without coal have made up their minds that they will be fortunate if they get as much a ton at a time during the coming eold weather season. At Goodyear mills and ai the Cemneo- tiout mills, employes have been notified of the coming advance have been give no definite amount of increass is given, but it is generally understood that the new wage scale will ‘be approximately the same as was in fores up to January of this year. The mills herein mentioned are manufacturers of tire fabric. Spécial Deputy Willlam J. Jarvis of the commission on domestic animals continu- ed to bring cases for prosecution in con- nection with violations of the dog laws in Canterbury during Tuesday. Among the interesting cases developed was one in which a woman was charged with having registered a female dog as a spayed animal. A fine was imposed in this case. Mr. Jarvis is to continue his actlvities in towns hereabouts until vio- lators of the law have been prosecuted or their dogs registered. Bcores of motorists heve pulled up short in Danlelson, during the last few days, upon hearing the sharp blast of what has seemed to be a police whistle only to find some grinning youngster thoroughly enjoying himself over having “fooled” the driver into belleving that an officer was halting him. A cheap de- viee that whistles is being distributed hereabouts and every kid that comes In- 16 possession of ne becomes & potential traffic ofticer. The mptorists are at their mercy and the kids are making the most of the situation. “New hotel” talk is revived by the mear approach of the throwing open of the Danielson-Providence road via Little Rest. Up to the present times, however, proposal has not advanced beyond the talking stage, although there are those who belleve that a 100-room hotel would pay in Danielson, once travel over the new highway reaches what may be con- #idered ‘as normal. Remember the Pellett bus and touring ear service from Danielson to the Brook- Iyn falr today and Thursday. Get buses at’ Danlelson Center, touring cars at the Pellett bullding, Rallroad square—adv.

Since few administration came in, matters have been adjusted and harmony drought about and at the third Special city meeting the appropriation went through. A Packard hook and lad- der truck of the latest type has been ordered for somé months and is due to arrive in a short time. Since the city recelved notice that horses would not bs furnished, the department has been without avallable ladders at fires, Due to this there has been at least one loss occasionéd large enough to pay for a truck and it has only beén by good for- tune that more sérious losses have not occurred, firemen belng unable to reach roofs or aeecond or third storiés unti from somewhere ladders were borrowed. ‘When the new truck arrives the de- partment's apparatus will consist of complete motor equipment, including Truck No. 1, at fire headquartérs on Unfon square; Truck No. %, at the Smith street fire station, and the hook and ladder truck at fire headquarters. The Whole apparatus is so located as to be ablé to reach any point in the city in a very short time. Whether or not the bringing of the department to this high standard will have any effect on insur- ance rates in the city remains to be seen but it has been intimated that it will have such effect, Judse George E. Hinman, of the su- perior court, has handed down a decis- ion setting aside the will of Thomas Moffitt, of Putnam, on the ground that aside of the will the two daughters of the testator will realize from his es- tate. The will was executed in 1901. After making two small bequests to sisters of the testator, the residue of the estate, amounting to about 37,000 was left with instructions that the whole amount be used to erect a monument to testator in Abington cemetery. The daughters, Mrs. Mary A. Carpen- ter and Mrs. Flora H. Durfee, appealsd trom the probate court and the case was tried at Putnam last Friday. Wit- nesses testified to knowing Mr, Moffitt for from 30 to 50 years and all express- ed the opinion that he was not of suffi- cient intelligence to understand the ef- fect of making a will or to have in mind the nature and extent of his property. Luther M. Kefth who has a menu- ment works, testified that the Moffitt lot was about 3§x30 feet and that a monu- ment costing ¥ix to seven thousand dol- lars would be out of all proportions, ic sald that a thousand dollars would erect a suitable monument.

A national enclosed car week has been arranged for by Cadillac distributors and dealers in many citles in the United States and Canada for September 17-23. Thesnew Cadillac Victoria and Five- passenger Coupe body styles will ssrve as the principal feature of novelty at the Auto Salons, which will be held by the Cadillac dealers. The new Type 61 Victoria, the always popular four-passenger enclosed model, has been receiving enthusiastic praise from Cadillac dealers and from those Cadillac owners who have seen It. Changes have been made which give the Victoria an impression of greater length and Jess height. It is considera- bly enlarged, providing more room for the occupants. All seats have been made Wwider and deeper, and the driver's seat !s now €0 placed as to be directly be- hind the steering wheel. The Victoria auxiliary folding seat, which is beside the driver's seat, is so arranged that it gives more room for the person occupy- ing it. Interior appointments have been en- chanced in the use of new pull-to-handles on the doors and other designs of fittings which are beautifully in keeping with the wtmosphere of the car. The Five-passenger Coupe also has Ao 2 §85 i i A very fine and big programme promised to the patrons of the Broadway theatre for the last half of this week. The five acts of B. F.

Star of “Blood and Sand” trained for two months by celebrated Spanieh bull fighter. Member of a famous bull-fightiag fam- ily, himselt the conquerer of twe seore “toros” Rafael Palomar was chosen az trainer of Rodolph Valentino for the tor- eador scenes of the Paramount star in “Blood and Band.” A Fred Niblo production made from the notable Vicente Blasco Ibanez novel of the same name. That “Blood and Sand” might be cor- rect in every respect, Palomar not only supervised the dressing of Valentino in toreador costume, but taught him every step of the intricate evolutions which mark the graceful sword and cape play of a matador. Although Valentino iz a trained dancer, he found even more difficult than tango or maxixe the com- plicated steps Palomar taugh him for two solld months. And accuracy was de- cldedly essential—for with a bull in fromt there's only one mistake to be made, and when that occurs, the undertaker has his inning. © { . Rafael Palomar won the tralning as- signment because of his twelve years as a bull-fighter in Madrid, Seville, Mh:‘ Mexico City, Guadalajara, and other Spanish and Spanish-American cities. He is the brother of Jose and Francisco Palomar, equally famous as favorites of Spanish bull ring avdiences. The hiring of Palomar was but a part of the plan to make “Blood and Sand which comes to the Strand theatre eom. mencing today, correet in every detail The story, however, tells of the life of Juan Gallardo, a bull-fighter. rather than of bull-fighting.
