Cairns showed himself familiar not only with na- tionaI methods of America and Eu- rope. but rather surprised the audi ence by taking up conditions in New Britain and Hartford and showing conclusive1y that the taxation meth ods are at rather loose ends and re- ouire attention. He showed the rela- tive taxation of @ householder and q. manufacture and what the result would be should a spirit of equality prevail. At the close of his address Mir Cairns replied to questions from the audience and some interesting points were thereby brought out.

Mt is reported that important tanges will be made on the Berlin he in the near future. The present iiholley run is from Berlin street to uJanley Quarter in New Britain, but onder such new scheme the run Would be from Berlin to New Britain t:enter. the cars going around the loop Instead of continuing north. The nl,rolleymen are in favor of the pro- oosed scheme as there will be less li- Ability of delays, they say. They claim That if they lose time on the Berlin md they cannot make it up on the North end, due to the many stops and the large number of children who continually run on the street. If the north end run was by itself and the Berlin run a single unit. much better results for the patrons and the com- pany would accrue, they think. This action is being contemplated by the company, it is stated, but when it will be made effective has not been an nounced.
 Changes at Post Office. k A partition is being constructed at he Berlin post office. shutting out hat was formerly the bar. As the yyffice was, there was little or no pri- vacy, but with the partition d lobby has been constructed, confining the patrons to the outer office.
