VOTERS PRAcTicED
 ON THE MACHINES
Many Refreshed Their Memories in
 Preparation for Tuesday Election '

Insall the districts of the town on Thursday there were a good number of voters who took advantage of the opportunity to refresh their recollec- tions as to the workings of the voting machines which will be used in tfie election on Tuesday. The registrars and assistant registrars were on hand at the polling places to give ,instruc- tions to any who wanted to be shown what ,sasat5 to do ito vote straight or split
 In the first district. but in none of the others, there will be two more op- portuntties for the voters to learn about the machines, as they will be demonstrated in the corridor of the Town hall both on Saturday and on Monday afternoon and evening"
 Taking a lesson from what happen ed in the last election. when it was ascertained that number of voters used the resetting lever and thus can celed their vote, under the impression probably, that they were recording it, yellow printed tag has been at tached to that lever this year with these words on it: "If you pull this lever you may cancel your vote. Ask the machine tender"

TRAIN EARNINGS OF
 NEW HAVEN ROAD
Shown in Figures Prepared by Roads Accounting Department

It is well known that the New Ha ven has furnished much passenger train service far below any estimate of the cost for the particular service rendered.
 An examination made by the roads accounting department of the earn 'ings of 2,45I<passenger trains operated daily and Sunday on the New Haven in the last two weeks Of July, lsl4, when passenger travel because or the vacation season is about as good as at any time in the year, has disclosed the fact that 25.2 per cent of them earned 50 cents or less a mile. Trains earning at the rate of S1 or less per mile com-
 prise 52.1 per cent of the total operat-
 ed, while only. 22.7 per cent showed
 earnings of more than $2 per mile.
 The examination just made covered
 every revenue passenger train on the
 system. For SS trainsA the average
 earnings were at the rate of 10 cents
 per mile or less; 619 showed earning
 at the rate of 50 cents or less; 660 from 50 cents to I$1; 374 from S1 to $1-50 and S04 over $1.50.
 Of the SS trains showing average earnings as low as 01 cents a mile or less, five had earnings at the rate oi only one cent a mile and averaged one passenger per mile.
 The earnings of four trains were al the rate of only two cents per mile Seven trains in Connecticut and Mas
 sacuhsetts showed earnings of only ; cents mile and seven earnings of only cents a mile. The average number of passengers per mile ran from one to nine for these trains.

At the home of MT. and Mrs. Charles B. Beckwith of Franklin, there was a pretty wedding Wednesday evening when their only daughter, Eleanor, and Arthur L. Smith. oldest son of MT. and Mrs. Louis H. Smith, were married.
 The ceremony was at I o'clock and was performed by Rev. Harry A. Beadle of Ponfret, assisted by Rev. Benjamin P. Capshaw of the Con- gregational church of Franklin, of which church both the young people are members. The house was attractively deco rated with cosmos, ground pine and bitter sweet, with here and there vases | of cut flowers. As the wedding march from Lohengrin was played by Miss Blanche V Smith, a cousin of the groom, Miss Beckwith and MT Smith entered the parlor and stood before an | arch of cosmos and green, beneath which the clergymen stood. The bride was given away by her father and a
 ring was used in the service.
 1 The bride was gowned in white 1 crepe de, chine, with veil, and car ried white roses.
 1 During the wedding supper. the l guests were denied the chance tC shower upon the happy pair the fullest expression of their felicitations, fol ped to neighbor's house, and across the fields to the road. where they es 1 capped in an automobile.
 L The beautiful presents were display. cd in room adjoining the dining room and included silver. cut glass. linen pictures, q large parior lamp and fur l nfture. The money was arranged il l the form of 8 rosette oT banknotes witt five gold pieces at the center.
 A poem. written for the occasion and accompanying present of. table i cloth and napkins, was read and yer! much enjoyed.
