MeSSrS. Woodruff and SOmerS of
 Bristol Are New Owners
WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT
Funeral of Mrs. Ellen Hanson Held This Afternoon-GE,nd Fair Starts Local Manhood Sale-BriefS.


 The Elm City Brass and Rivet con- pany on Whiting street has again changed hands. The new owners are Walter B. Woodruff and Arthur D. Somers, both Bristol men. MT. Woodruff is we'll known in Bristol and Is one of the most prominent business men there. MT. Somers works at the New Departure Manufacturing com- pany plant in Bristol. What their plans are for the future business are not as yet announced, The plant will, however, eventually build, and addi- tions will be made as the growth of the business warrants such procedure, it is said.
 The history of the factory dates back to 1903, when it was organized as the Elm City Brass and Rivet com pany. Prominent men from New Haven held a large interest in the concern and George B. Clark, former local man and now living in Alabama, and the late William Cowles were also connected with the factory. After a few yearsot was sold out to Asuilla H. Condell and John B. Minor, local men, who acted as president and sec retary respectively. During the war business fell off considerably and the plant Was closed for lack of orders and material with which to work. It opened again when Hyman Horwitz and Carl S. Casperon, of New Britain bought the place and resumed opera tions under the name of The Hard ware City Manufacturing company.
 The plant now operates on a 10 hour schedule and only about 10 men are employed out of a former pay roll of 40. Brass products are the main output of the factory and the ma chimes are run by a 50 horsepower
