HAMPSTEAD FARM OWNERS
 WILL CHARGE FEE
To Automobile Owners Who Come to
 See Races.

In former years when the Yale Harvard race on the Thames river Ezra J. Hampstead and son who have a farm in Waterford, near the finish line, have been annoyed by crowds who hocked there to see the finish of of the race. The rear of the Hemp stead farm is down by Browning beach and a splendid view of the crews as they sweep by to the end is pos sible from there.
 In bygone years the Messers Hemp stead have suffered considerable dam age to their crops as scores of people have tramped through the fields to get to the shore This year they are determined that those who want to see the race there must pay a fee. They are perfectly willing that all New London people should go there to witness the race, but see no good reason why people who come from New York, Boston, New Haven and other cities by machine should drive their heavy touring cars through the !Hempstead farm, raising havoc with IT, and this year no machines will pass through the gates without the owners first coming across.

INSURANCE RATES ON DWELLINGS
Revised All Over the State- Cassications for All Cities and Towns-Norwich in Class C-AH Dwellings First Classified as to Character of Roofs-CombustbIe or Non-CombustbIe Roofs-Then as to Character of Oc- cupancy.

Fire insurance agents all over the state have just received the new schedule of minimum rates on dwell ing property by the New England In- surance exchange which has been promulgated to go into effect on the first of July.
 The new minimum rates have been arranged to correct the wide dis crepancies which have existed in what was charged for insurance upon sim ilarly situated dwelling house prop erty in different parts of the state and all the cities have been classified into six classes in which the rates are es- abolished according to the state wide survey that has been made of all the conditions entering into fire protec- tion. such as fire department equip ment, reservoir supply. size and num- Der of water mains, etc.
 There are no Connecticut cities which come under class A, which is the first classification, and there are only six cities, Hartford, Bridgeport. Waterbury, Meriden, New Britain and New Haven, which are in class B.
 Norwich is in class c with Danbury, East Hartford. Greenwich. Higland Lake. Middletown, Naugatuck, New London, Norwalk. Rockville. South Manchester, Winsted, West Haven, Torrington, Wallingford. Thompson v1lle Stonington and WestvilIe.
 In every classification all dwellings are first rated as to whether they have combustible or non-combustibIe roofs Hitherto there has been no such di- vision of dwelling house property and the general effect of the,new rate in Norwich, it is stated, will be to give the best protected dwelling property the benefit of its less haz- ardous character, resulting in a reduc- ton of rate for brick dwellings with non-combustible roofs.

HENRY HoLLINcsWoRTH
 KILLED IN ACTION
John HoIIingsworth Receives Word of
 Brother's Death in EnaIish Army.

John D. HoIIingsworth of No. 432 Boswell avenue, engineer for The Bulletin company, has received word that his brother, Henry Hollingsworeh. a private in the English army, was killed in action on May 21. Henry Hollingsworth was employed at the Eicnmond Radiator company here about four years ago.
 The Ashton -under-Lyne Reporter of June contains the following an- nouncement of the death of Private Hollingsworth:
 The most sorrowfuI tragedy of this terrible war Is the severance of hus- bands from wives and fathers from children, never to meet again in this world. The sympathy of all must go to the widows and the fatherIess. A particularly pathetic case is that of Mrs Hollingsworth, of 13 Turner Lane Ashton, who has received official in- formation that her husband, Private Henry Hollingsworth, of the Special Reserve of Lancashire Fusileers has been killed in action. Private Hol- ingsworth was 31 years of age and formerly was employed at the Ma tional Gas Engine Co.'S works as brass f1nisher, but latterly he had been working at Old Trafford He wos formerly in the army. but was bought out. He joined the Lanca- shire Fusileers on August 27th, and went out to the front in May. and he was killed on May 21st. He was a member of St. Johns Sunday School at Hurst. He leaves a widow and two children.
 On his departure for France he wrote a touching message to his wife and children. He wrote:
 T am going out with a good heart hoping that we shall not be long be- fore we are united again. Remember that 1t is every mans duty now, and no one can ever say to you or the children that your Harry did not do his. l know you will upset yourself but try for my sake to be brave. You must not write to me till you get another letter from me. And I will Write every week, or oftener if possi- ble- l cannot forget the happy and comfortable home we have worked for ana share together. l am iIf the best or health, and I hope you and the children are the same. God bless you all: 1 know that your prayers will follow me where ere I go and will do my duty as bravely as possible Keep a good heart I shall think of you and the children every day. I have not much heart to write tonight Kiss the children for their dadda Tell them I will soon be back with Gods help, for the war will not last long. So good night and may God bless and pro- tect you all while I am gone"
 Dear children-I am leaving you for while and I want you to be very good to your mamma. I think that you will. l will not be gone long. hope, and look after Hilda, Joe. for I know that you will do all you can for mother. so be good children. So good night, Joe and Hilda. Kiss you ma ma for your dad. and may God guard and Keep you from harm. So good night and God bless you.-F'rom your ever loving Father.
