Keeper Now in Charge qf Cafe
 Owned by ]. |. Sullivan .ss E35s HOPKINS COMPANY PLAINTIFF
William o'ConnelI laoed in Conn., mand by Deputy !ShcrifI-Rumo1>s As of sale-Negro Fined and Jailed
  for Transfer Station Trouble.

"a Acting on papers issued in a suit 1-broukht blythe Hopkins Brewing cont pany of Hartford. to recover for rent and payments due on goods, Deputy Sheriff Beal of. Bristol, yesterday af- ternoon appointed William O'Connell of Forestville as keeper of the cafe conducted by JohnI L. Sullivan. MT. O'Connell will. be in charge of the place until the suit comes to trial or is otherwise settled
 The Hopkins people bought. the place from the estate of Thomas G. Russell over a year ago, transferring the license and stock to MT. Sullivan, That the latter has been in financial difficulties for some time has been generally known and the action of the brewery in bringing suit occasioned , but little surprise here.
 The cafe, when owned by MT. Rus sell was regarded as one of the best paying liquor establishments in the town. Business fell off considerably. however, since the license changed hands and it has been known for months that MT. Sullivan was expert encing trouble in meeting his obliga- tions. /
 Negotiations for the sale of the place have been in progress from time to time but the deals all fell through Only within week was it reported that the saloon was soon to change hands. MT. Sullivan admitted that he was negotiating with pros- pective customer but the sale was held up because of a difference over the price.
 MT. OConnell, placed In charge as keeper. is among those whose names have been mentioned in connection with the sale. He stated today how ever. that he Is looking after the bust ness only as representative of the deputy sheriff and not as prospec- tive owner.
 Fear No License.
 Fear of unfavorable action by the voters on the license question at the election next October seemingly has interfered to some extent with bids for Plainville saloons. It is generally ad- nitted that hard drive Is to be made by the temperance interests next fall and even among the license sup porters there Is feeling that unless conditions change materially during the next few months the town will go dry
 Aligned WlIIl the IlO-11CeASo "oA noI D this year will be Postmaster Peter J. Prior, who heretofore has been re- garded as a passive advocate of license. With other anti-saloon workers he Is already agitating a solar plexus blow for John Barleycorn and he makes no denial of his intentions to fight the liquor interests at the fall election.
 Fined and Jailed.
 John Hightowell was the only occu- pant of the prisoners pen at yester- days session of the local court to go to jail, although the others had narrow escapes, Justice E. P. Prior sending him up' for thirty days. Hlghtowell

 } tween This country and Germany the :. members of Emma. Hart Willard Chapter, D. A. R., in common with bther chapters throughout the United < States. will adopt home preparedness
 measures and will follow out the fol- , lowing recommendations just received l. from State Regent Elizabeth Barney y Buell. s Chapter Regents and Members: 1: The President of the United States has severed diplomatic relations with Germany. Our country stands for Adehaocracy and liberty, for law, order and'8the principles of humanity, for :. which our forefathers fought and our : foremothers worked and prayed. If we are called to the supreme sacrifices of war in their defence the Connec- 5 ticut Daughters of the American Rev olution will be found in the forefront / Of service for Home and Country" : It would be a slur upon their patriot . 1S1n to l11ldSlIlO OlhSIW W1Sc. IlOIue- ' preparedness is the solemn duty of the hour.
 Every chapter, therefore, in the state should be a center of activity in the promotion of preparedness, : taking up that form of effort best suited to it's opportunities.
 I therefore urge each chapter to redouble it's efforts to increase the smembership of the American Red ACross, sending as many names as pos sible to our state chairman, Mrs. c. ,stI F. Robinson, 1161 Prospect Ave nue, Hartford. f earnestly recommend. in addition that each chapter regent appoint a :. Red Cross committee in her chapter
 through which it may cooperate with the American Red Cross in response
 to the appeal just issued from Red
 Crbss headquarters in Washington.
 Donations of money should be sent to our state treasurer, Miss Jennie f,oonis. Windsor, to be forwarded to the American Red Cross.
 Ine spirit of '76 bids us rally one ! aRd all, regardless of creed or party, ] to the support of the president, gladly
 and Loyalty ubholding him in his stand
 for the honor of the nation, for the defense of it's citizens in the peace H full exercise of their rights and for
 the smaintenance of humanity and
