 Having assurance of another capa-
 city house this evening all tickets having been disposed, members of the Womans club today had cause for qualification over the success guar anteed for the lecture and motion picture exhibit given by John H. Trum bull for the benefit of the li- brary fund. The ladies were elated this morning over the enthusiasm of the townspeople and the manner in which they gave their patronage to the movement which it is expected will eventually make possible the erec- tion of a new building for the pub lie library.
 Not only was the "S. R. O." sign in evidence early last evening when MT. Trumbull gave his first Plain vile lecture on his recent hunting expedition in the wilds of Wyoming but it was necessary to turn away number of people before the en- tertainment started, so great was the attendance MT. Trum bulls trip was a most interesting one and the peo- pie of the town were anxious to hear a recital of his experiences and to witness the details of life among the cowpunchers in that part of the west that is still unframed as de- pcted in the motion pictures taken by one of the members of the local manufacturers party. They also de- sired to cooperate with the Woman's club in it's efforts to raise funds for the library and as 8 result the sale of tickets was extremely large
 MT. Trumbull's5 talk was greatly enjoyed. He gave all the details of his visit in the Jackson Hole coun- try, told of his experiences in hunting elk and mountain sheep and graphi- cally described the cowboys who spend their lives on the ranches Near ly a mile of motion picture film, which MT. Trumbull had taken by an expert during his trip, was shown. The audience was greatly pleased. with the picturesque scenery and en- joyed the pictures of cowboys bust ing' bronchos, roping steers, branding cattle and doing other "chores" that fall to their lot.
 The trapping of a coyote is one of the most novel features of the pie ture series. The camera man suc- ceeded in getting a good picture of the animal it was held in the jaws of the steel trap. Hunting elk was also explained in the pictures.
 About $50 people, including a num- Der from New Britain and Bristol were entertained by the lecture last evening and the sale of tickets indi- cates that the Town hall will accom- modate an equal number tonight, when Mr. Trumbull repeats his story.
 Esan Gave Permit.
 Permission to operate motion | picture machine in the Town hall for | MT. Trumbulls lectures was secured l yesterday afternoon from Chief Egan | of the state police force after rep 1 resentative of that department came | here to look over the building
 While the officer believed that the l in connection with this warranted the granting of a permit, he explained that with out extensive changes in the layout of the building the department would have to refuse ot allow motion pie lures to be shown in the building with any degree of regularity.
 On account of the fire hazard the rules governing motion picture shows are very strict and unless every pos sible precaution for the safety of the audience is taken, the police refuse to give permits for an entertainment of this character.
 To make the Town nall suitable for m oton picture shows, changes would have to be made in the exits, Chief Egan's representative explained, and it would also be necessary to put fire escapes on the building.
 There is not much demand for the hall for motion pictures and 1t Is doubtful if the selectmen will go to the expense necessary to make the changes recommended by the state police.
 Claimed to Be an Indian.
