 In the first place. the position of the diamond Is being changed. The lines have been swung around toward the east and this season right field will be where center field was last season. This will do away with the always present trouble in past seasons of bat ted balls going over the tree tops on to the church property. Then the dia- mond has been plowed depressions fn the field filled in and loads of 1oam are being carted upon the diamond. This will be later rolled until 1t is as smooth and hard as the top of billiard table Bleachers are to be built along the west side of the field under the trees, and the fans will be able to witness the games in comfort

PROPOSED TRUST co.
Possibility That WiIlimantic May
 Have Another Banking House.

Willimantic is soon to have another banking institution. The men who are interested in it's promotion say that they have met with substantial en- couragement. There has been a char ter for a trust company in existence for a number of years and the same has at last been taken up by Hosea Mann, cashier of the .Torrington Ma tional bank, who with some assistance. proposes to raise sufficient capital to start a trust company under the name of the Willimantic Trust company. Mr. Mann is a man of ability and has done much in the past ten years to make the Torrington National bank substantial institution. He has been in this city looking over the ground and is confident that there is ample room for another institution such as it is proposed to launch in the Thread city. It is the intention of the pro- moters, if possible, to start the con- pany with local capital as far as pos sfble. There are those who have been of the opinion for some time that there was absolute need for another good bank of some kind here.
 Mr. Mann is anxious to have sufH- cinet capital so that there will be a good working surplus for the trust company and he intends to secure To- cal men to be directors and make the institution a strictly local bank. as has been done in the case of the bank at Torrington.
