 A. J. Bordeau, Daniel M. Collins, Robert and Hugh Simpson returned to Plainville last evening from Hartland where they went Saturday night on a fishing trip. They brought along | a good supply of crickets in the hope

His head came 1T , contact with rod holding the cover 7 Of the car.

The annual democratic caucus for the nomination of town officers will be held this evening in the court room of the town hall. The meeting will convene at o'clock sharp.
 Encouraged by the defeat of Will liam H. Gibney at the republican cau- GUS last week by Ju6ge Willard I. filling for first selectman, the dem crats will put one of the strongest tickets that they have had in years into the field this fall. Little interest this town in years past in elections, as the candidates put forth by the party have been defeated with ease by MT. Gibney. With Judge filling as their opponent, the local followers q of President Woodrow Wilson will &snow endeaVOr to put a democrat into \ office. It is expected that a number of Gibney followers will cast their ] vote with the democratic party this falP rather vote for MT. filling.
 # Ii is probable that Lewis A. West T colt of East Berlin will be nominated 8 thig evening to head tho democratic #ticket. Many prominent citizens about # town today were of the opinion that # he would make an ideal man foi #the position of first sclectman. MT Westcott is a member of thc finance Mboard and has proved 10 be a very Scap- -Sle and efficient official. He has #also served the town as auditor and nothing but words of praise can b> seard for the performance of his dl- 8ties. MT Westcott has conducted a Grocery store in East Berlin for more Bhan twenty years having retired TO gently. He has always been staunch Elem ocrat and is popular in Ke1sin g- ton and Berlin as well as in IEorf T3Cr-
 in where he resides. Although MT Westcott is not desirous Of accepting the honor to lead his party in the Fall election it is probable th0t pres Sure will be brought to bear this eve
