tus can be delivered. Should the meeting follow the course of other at tempts at progressive legislation, the matter will have to be included on the regular annual budget prepared in August, acted upon at the following town meeting, and if then passed it would be nid-winter before the ap- paratus would be available.
 One glean of sunlight was visible at the meeting. and that was the note worthy spirit of complete harmony between the first seIectman who pre- sided, the Board of Fire Commission CTS, and the Board of Finance, as well as the fact that every man present acknowledged the need of the equip ment, and seemed de ermined to get it as soon as possible by some means.
 Should the VCi CTS turn down the proposition now the men in charge of the welfare of the town will not jet shortsightedness long prevail, or allow any of the element of 'cuting off ones nose to spite ones face" to keep the matter quiet, but will con tinually pound on the subject until Stratford iG equipped as il should be to combat fires, and to keep the town On the same progressive level with Milford. Bristol, and other communi- ties of Ehe same class in the state.

Is
 Taken To Job On Motorcycle

Dominick Cardano, of New Britain. who was arrested with five other men last night, for drunkenness, thinks the Bridgeport Police department is one grand organization. Dominick had a job waiting for him at the U. M. c. company at nine o'clock this morn ing, and at three minutes to nine he was arraigned in the City court.
 Judge Frederic A. Bartlett, upon hearing the facts of the case, sus- pended sentence and told Dominicll to make the U. M. c. factory in noth- ing flat. It looked like a tough job, because Dominick measure about five feet in height. He started out, how ever, and a traffic policeman volun- teered to rush him to the plant on a motorcycle.
 Dominick made the factory, got his job, and the policeman got the thanks. Mike Rior of New I ork City, who was one of Dominick's gang, was fined $5 and costs, and judgment was suspended in the cases of Harry Cos tello, 79 State street; Walter Joy, city; John Shanley, A. Whitney ave nue, and Peter Segelor, S1 Olive street. All six men were arrested on the Wall street dock.

 The guests were particularly loud in their approval of the dance floor ard i-S surroundings. They were most profuse in the compliments showered upon George CDoc) Owens, the man aEer O. th-S attraction. for the man ner in which the pavilion is being conducted. Miss Slocum commented faEora5ly upon the abSanc@ of even the slightest indication of vulgar or suggestive movements during the dances and intimated that she would enjoy nothing beuter than to have fu- ture public affairs of the school held on tfe island.

Annette s '' Are Not One
 Piece Suits

Not very long ago there appeared in this paper a story about one piece bathing suits being taboo at Pleasure Peach and because the amusement editor ackn owledged a sense of hu- nor, the head was made to read, Annette Kelermann can't play on our beach,
 Miss keIlermann being a special favorite of this Editor and having always worn one Of these suits that fit the form, no harm was thought of it. It was as one may say, done for the fun of thing"
 It now develops the tie name An nette Kellermann is the trade mark for nationally advertised and universally known line of bathing suits. the mOdestry and refinement of which appeal to the most conserva- tive and they are said to have tke, approval of the strictest beach cen SOr.
 The name does not imply just ore piece suits. In fact most of the KeI- lermann models are ''two-inones''- very practical and decidedly modest.
 This mistake having been brought to the attention of the paper The Times is glad to make this eXpIana- ton and correct any false impression inadvertently made by it's former statements.

 VALIDATING ACT

 An unexpected development of the injunction that was immediately ap- parent was the effect upon the Board of Charities. Bills they had con- tracted with various small merchants throughout the city for the care or poor, and by purchasing of supplies for destitute families, could not be paid, and seriously impaired the credit of the department.
 After the injunctiOns had been en- forced for several weeks with no ap- parent benefit to either faction, steps to secure satisfactory settlement of the controversy were taken.
 An arbitration board composed of Richard I. Neithercut, Francis J. Brennan and John Williamson was named to investigate the charges un- deriving the injunctions, and to de- termine the legality of the bills.

 An agreement also had been previ- ously reached by the attorneys to sub- mt to the state legislature a petition for an act validating the bills, insur- ing their payment and the removal of the InJuncuOns- The bill was intro duced, and passed both House and Senate.
 The final step will be taken tomor- row morning when Attorney Thomas M. Cullinan, for the Mooney faction; Attorney David M. Day, for the Chamber of Commerce forces; and Judge William H. Comley, Jr., for the city, appear before Judge Kellogg for q formal dissolution of the injunc- tiOns.

is the rated capacity of the Oakland installation.
 While the primary intent of the new system is the handling of grain, it is available for numerous other cargoes. At Oakland it has been used, among other things, for copra, which comes in fairly large pieces; so it's range is wider than might appear. Doubtless it would be available for small sizes of coal, and especially in reverse process for the coaling of ships when at such ports as have the necessary plants for the purpose. There seems no reason indeed why the method should not find application, in modified form, in various ways not connected with ma rine transportation. In view of the many applications of compressed air to modern industrial operations it is not little curious that this handling by suction has not been extensively applied long ago.

MEXICAN PIPE LINE.

Mexican pipe line is being planned by Clay T. Yerby, of Los Angeles, who has been granted concession by the Mexican government. The pipe line is to run from Puerto, Mexico, on the Gulf coast, to Salina Cruz, on the shore of the Pacific, says the Scientific American. It is said that the pipe line will follow the Tehauntepec rail- road.
 Work on the first pipe line, a-10-inch line, will begin at once and will be completed within 26 months. The es- timated cost of the work will be 10;- 100000 gold pesos, and it is pointed out that by means of the pipe line the time of transporting oil from the east to the west coast of Mexico will be cut down by Il days and the distance covered will be 2,300 miles less than through the Panama Canal.

AIRPLANE FOR INSECT PESTS.

Another experiment in the adaptatfon of the airplane to peacetime activities was recently made near Dayton, O., according to the Popular Mechanics Magazine A six-acre grove of young catalpa trees had been attacked by insects and was in danger of being de- stroyed. An airplane scared directly over the grove and sifted powdered arsenate of lead onto the trees by a device described in the article. Only a few minutes were required to ac- complish this work, which would oth- erwise have demanded the services of a large number of men and sprays for several days, and, moreover, it was done more effectively by the plane.

and tightly for it's overland journey.
 The machine consists in the first place of two pipes that go down into the interior of the ship. These run to the top of a small building on the pier in which are located the motors that supply the suction. These suction pipes lead the grain to the mouth of second set of pipes which blow instead of suck. and through these it is forced out into the waiting car. So tightly does the blast force the grain into the space provided for it that the carrying capacity of the car is increased 20 per cent Thirty tons of wheat per hour

A IL bridge construction records "A are said to have been broken
 by the replacement of the river, between Lynn and Revere, Mass. early last July. The new bridge, a wooden structure 400 feet long and 33 feet wide, was put up in ten days and cost $33, 3,OG0. Counting the clearing away of burnt parts be- fore reconstruction could begin, the whole job took extcatly 13 days, one hour and 20 minutes.
 An account Of this feat published in the Scientific American says:
 On the morning Of July steam der ricks appeared at the bridge and work started tearing off the damaged deck and weakened piles. Three days later new construction began.
 Storms and heart-breaking obstacles interfered from the start. At first it looked like months job. Flood lights were put up and the work drove ahead night and day. As days passed, the outlook grew brighter.
 By July 12 all the caps except on six splice joints at the Lynn end of the bridge were in position. On the 14th it was possible to cross the bridge on the loose planking while the cross bracing went ahead swiftly.
 When the job of laying the wearing surface of two-fnch spruce blanks be- gan, the workmen were sure that saw ing would take ten days to two weeks. An individually motor-driven circular saw table with mitering arrangements
