Once wrote girl letter,
But it caused great uproar;
SO I'll never write le tier
To that lady any more.
Seems that everybody living
In the country far and near
Knows about that little

For this lady shows my letter

I'd thank her very kindly
If she would send it back.
Now may getinto trouble
When this lady's beau I see;
But he'll have to do some running
Before he catches me!

 The Fourth.
 Yesterday was the most subdued fourth in the history of this old town. The youngsters were out bright and early with their crackers and cap pistols, but the elder element evil dently believed in a safe and sane eel ebration, for very little firing was heard in town. There were several picnics in various parts of the town. Thousands of automobiles passed over Warrington Ridge and every now and then a report would be heard and the chauffeur would alight, roll up his sleeves and put on another tire Many citizens journeyed to New Britain last evening and enjoyed the fireworks display at Walnut Hill park
 Kensingtonites Worried.
 Great worry was manifested by res- idents of Kensington, who were wit messing the fireworks spectacle in New Britain last evening, when the shrill clarion whistle of the American Paper Goods company was heard above the din of the explosives. The eyes of all turned toward this town and a huge blaze filled the sky. It seemed as thought the fire was in the neighbOrhOod and many immediately started for home. Later it was learned the blaze was at the Star Ice company's plant in the southern part of Meriden. The loss was s15,OOO and it is believed to have been started by falling skyrocket.

 Dr. c. w. Moody was called and he rendered first-aid treatment Fearing that his eyesight might be impaired by the powder, Dr. Moody had the boy taken to the hospital today.
 Young POtter's experience was the only serious accident resulting from the celebration of the holiday in Plain vile. There were the usual com rlaints of burns and minor wounds caused by the premature explosion of hreworkks and the careless handling of other explosives.
 How They Celebrated.
 While a safe and sane observance of Independence day was not in order here, the town got by the Fourth without any trouble of consequence.
 The young people made plenty of noise on the night before' and seem ingly enjoyed themselves There was a small crowd at the Center until a short time after midnight. The cele- orators ducked each other in the watering trough and made merry in the usual fashion. The police authori- ties were inclined to enter into the spirit of the night and they over looked slight offenses which otherwise might have resulted in the arrest of the young men responsible.
 Extra constables were on duty all night. There were men stationed at the churches and schoolhouses, but they had nothing to do. the celebrat- Ors making no attempt to force an entrance into the buildings for the of ringing the bells.
 Not a single arrest was made, the constab1es exercising good judgment in the handling of the gangs which congregated about the Center.
 To Arrange for Repairs.
 Repairs to the school buildings to be made during the vacation period are expected to form one of the top of the school board scheduled for this evening" The committee plans to make some improvemen before the schools are re-opened, and the mem- bers will consider suggestions at to- nights session.
 The places of three of the teachers who resigned at the close of the Spring term have not as yet been filled. The teachers committee has received a number of applications and will probably report in favor of some selections at tonight's meeting.

Nick Russo Claims He Was Beaten and Robbed Last Evening
TWO ASSAILANTS CAPTURED
Work on Warrington Road Held Up As Thirty-five Laborers Strike for Increase-Beech Swamp Road is Being Repaired.

Morris Riordan and Tony Smith were placed under arrest by Sheriff James Clark this morning on the charge of assault on Nick Russo. The assault took place between the depot and Styles and Reynolds brick yard last evening about o'clock. Russo is employed at the latter place and was on his way home, when, he says, he was attacked by Riordan, Smith and another man and beaten and rob- bed of $3.10 and his watch. Although the assault happened last evening Prosecutor Gibney was not notified of it until o'clock this morning. He immediately detailed Sheriff Clark on the case, with the result that Riordan and Smith were in durance vile by 10:30 o'clock. They are employed at the Holmes brick yard. The former admitted he was present, but stoutly denied having taken any part in the assault Russo claims he was walk ing home when he was attacked, felled and severely beaten and kicked. It was thought he might be injured in- ternalIy, but an examination by Dr. R. M. Griswold showed no bones were broken.
 The victim says there were three men in the party and an investigation Is being made to find the third. The prisoners will be arraigned before

The man purchased the an imal last week from two strangers who called at his place, offering it to him for $1. He refused to pay the price, but finally consented to give twenty cents The men accepted the money and left the dog with him.
 The new owner is willing to have the animal licensed if it is his prop erty legitimately and he has explained the conditions of his purchase to avoid getting into trouble in case it should be discovered that the canine had been stolen.
