 $ Judge Fuller of Somers is now the recognized judge of probate for this district. acting until the election next fall, when 6 successor for Judge Fisk will be chosen. Dr. Fisk's term of service has expired owing to the statute of limitation, but he will continue to attend to the duties of the position until the new man takes hold. Marcus B. Fisk has proved a very capable man for the position and is admirably fitted for it. In addition to thorough understanding of the legal requirements of the office, he possesses a large degree of common sense and is thoroughly systematic. He has served the district with dis. function as judge of probate. ] Travel was heavy on the new electric railroad last Sunday. The pleasant weather made trolley ride desirable. A lot of people at both ends of the line were unable to get on the cars owing to the crowded con- dition. During the rush hours the cars carried all the way from 100 to 12T passengers. It is estimated that nearly II ,0O0 fares were taken. An attempt was made to run half hour schedule Sunday afternoon. but there was insufficient power. The cars be. came late, but by lively running be- tween here and Rockville they were back on schedule time in the evening Sundays experience demonstrates the need of a power house either here or in Rockville.
