 pionship - Mrs. Nelson Dyer of Summer Street Dies - Bristol Teacher Marries - District Meets. The corrected school enumeration for the city of Bristol released to- day by Superintendent of Schools | Karl A. Reiche, shows total of G. 490 children between the ages of four and sixteen. This is an in- crease Of 391 or GA per cent over that of la. year
 Easing the population of the city on the federal government method of estimating b multiplying the to- tai number of school children by four and one-half would give Bris- tol 29,205 residents which many be- | Hcve is nearly correct For some considerable time, Torrington, South Manchester, Middletown and Bristol | have been closely grouped in regard ] to population. That the 1880 fed eral government census will show i that Bristol is considerably in the lead among these four cities seems : a certainty.
 i Bristois next group in population will be abong those cities compris- ing New London. Norwich and South Norwalk and that the 1880 census will show Bristol with considerably more than 30,000 seems perfectly reasonable at this time. Among the five large districts, four showed an increase and one, ] the North side, showed a decrese Of 1 per cent, or ten pupils less than last year. Forestville district show ed an increase of 2T children or 49 per. cent, while the South side show cd an increase of 190 pupils or 7.7 per cent. The East Bristol district enumerated an increase of 56 pupils or 9.t per cent, the largest propor- donate increase in the city. The Federal hill district showed an in- crease of 13O pupils or S.1 per cent for the largest increase recorded in , this district in several years. Three of the five rural districts showed decreases, Stafford with a decrease of 16, Edgewood with and Fall Mountain with two. North Chippins hill showed an increase of four and South Chiopins hill with an increase of 20 or 24.2 per cent, the largest per cent of increase. West Ends City Champions i The West End football team de- ] ftnitely established themselves as city ! Maple Eni eleven at Muzzy field yes terday morning before. a crowd Of approximately 2.5OO persons. the i largest number to witness q football contest in t'e cit, in years. The ! final score was l 3 to O.
 The superior weight of the West End boys and the stellar work of Segrctto in carrying the ball had considerable to do with the result. The speed of tte Maple End players was negligible due to the heavy con- dition of the cid. which in some 9l'OtS NGtS SL oEcl OL III NtAit 1llNl W lliN IT made line plunging the principal method of ofcnsc by their oppon- ents.
 The first score of the game was made only q few minutes after the first whistle h2- blown, when Kane. the Maple End center, made a poor pass to Cahoon for q punt. the ball getting away and rolling back of the Maple End goal for q safety. Se- cretto also scored touchdown in the first period, after Q series of line plunges hy the West End backs, The Maple End boys on a number of occasions were obliged to resort to punts to get the ball out of their territory and for the most part were compelled to play a defensive game. The second touchdown was scored in the last quarter, when q Maple End punt was blocked, West End play CT falling on the ball on the one yard line of the Maple Ends Sc srctto then ripped Q hole through the defense for tho second touch down of the morning.
