GOODBYE TROLLEY STATION
Mayor George A. QuiSley Voices His DisapprOyaI of the Councils Action in Regard to Said Plan.

Once again the trolley > waiting station, or proposed station, must be put aside until a final resting place can be decided upon. The latest and final crushing blow to the project came today when Mayor G. A. Quigley voiced his disapproval Of having the station south of the park.
 At the July meeting of the common council an amendmet was adopted to have the station nearer the park thad the triangle as it would not interfere with the traffic there. His Honor said this morning that; this section of the street was no place for the sation and hence his disapproval of the present spot. Where the next place for the station will be or what action will be ken is not known at the present time.
 Another matter that met With dis approval was the councils action in regard to the building line on Gold street But this time it is not a mat ter of the feelings of the mayor but his act of courtesy to Rev. Lucyan RojnoWski, who wishes another hear ing on the proposed line.

PAYS ALL BILLS
 FOR MAN HE SHOT
Last of July Cases Was Concluded In Police Court This
 Morning.

The adjourned case of John Kos gatha, charged on two counts with shooting John Pazie on the night of July and with discharging firearms without a permit on that date, camc up before Judge James T.

On the other count Judge Meskill imposed maximum penalty, $7 and costs. At tOrney M. D. Sake, representing the accused said that his client had paid all the doctors and hospital bills for the man he shot and has also offered to reimburse him for the time he has lost.
 Theodore Sawczyn, ordered by the court to appear this morning to state whether or not he had compiled with an order to clean up his yard, failed to appear. His lawyer, B. w. filling, said he had ordered him to come to court twice. Judge Meskill ordered the mans arrest and he will be in court Monday.
 Attilio Spacullitti, recently ordered to clean up his yard, has failed to comply with the courts demand. He was fined $5 and costs. All of the other continued snsanitary cases were disposed of when it appeared that the accused had compiled with the de- mands.
 Mrs. P. Pearson was charged with not keeping quarantine. Her l3- years -old-son, Herman, came here from New York on July 20 and was quarantined by the health board.

NEW PARKING PLAN
 FOR AUTOMOBILES
Owners Of Machines to Approach
 Nearer Band Stand

Chairman E. G. Babcock of the safety board now has a new plan for parking automobiles which will be put in force at the next band concert at Walnut Hill park. At the last concert the system of having all machines parked in the highway on fOrty-t1Ve degree angle worked out exceptionally well and as the auto mobilist likes to enjoy the concerts further plans for his accommodations are necessary.
 Let Cars in Park.
 To the south of the bandstandis a wide roadway or path crossing the park. The safety board now plans to permit automobiles to enter the park in this section and stand facing the bandstand. In this way a num- Der of cars can be parked near the music. Twenty-Five feet in the rear of this line of cars will be another line. Thus any driver in either line can leave at any time he sees fit. It is expected that this plan will work out very we'll Heretofore the occu- pants of cars at the extreme end of the highway line have ben unable to hear the music.
 Tomorrow afternoon the members of the supernumerary police force will meet at headquarters at which time their numbers will be rear ranged and distributed. Chief Raw ings will also speak to the men.
 Supernumcrarics Have Kick.
 At the last meeting of the safety board the supernum eraries present. ed a petition asking that when doing duty in place of a, regular DatrO1man they be given the same pay as a reg ular. Under the present rules the men receive S2.50 instead of the S2.75 they seek. The safety board tabled the petition for the time being and now there is some talk that the su- pernumeraries will refuse to accept their monthly pay checks because they have not received what they ask. Chairman Babcock personally favors their request as he thinks that if they do the work of regular men and do it capably they should get the same pay. He states that he will have the matter taken from the table at the next meeting.
 The campaign for new members of the supernumerary force is cont1n- uing and it is expected that by Sep tember or early fall the entire depart ment, supernumeraries and regulars, will total 150 men.
 The poIiccmen's baseball team which is to play the Hartford police in September will probably be made LID mostly of upernum eraries and they are planning to organize soon and have several practice games be- fore the eventful day.

Chiropractic Hints-The Art of Nerve
 Tracing.

Nerve tracing is an art which none but a chiropractic knows or uses. It is bv this system that a chiropra or can positively trace the course of an impinged nerve from the organ or muscle involved directly back to it's exit from the spinal column.
 By this means a chiropractor veri- fies his palpaiOn of the spinal column and therefore locates the exact vertebra causing the impinged nerve. Tor a long time chirOpractic was looked upon with skepticism and doubt and as a humbug. But today those who investigate find it is the only science of healing giving posi- tive and lasting results. Statistics show that results are obtained in about ninety per cent. of cases. And what is more nearly all the cases a chiropractor gets are chronic cases of people who have found no relief from ether methods and go to a chiroprac- tor
 Why not let me just discuss your case with you and I've no doubt that you will see the value of chiropracti adjustments. I will gladly call at your home or see you in the office at any time.
