John himself would not speak of the

1t was after Christmas before Lydia,
coming home from school with Adam,
who always went to meet her, would
find John, pale and weak but fully

Believes Efficiency of De- partment Would Be Promoted and Property More Adequately Pro- tected.

Pointing out the hazards brought about by traffic conditions when the greater part of the fire apparatus has to answer a fire alarm, Chief William J. Noble, at a meeting of the fire board last night. asked the members to request the school board, parochial schools and theaters to in- stall fire alarm boxes on their premises so that the departmsnt will prepare to concentrate on the particular building when an alarm is rung.
 At present, the chief pointed out, the department sends several com panies to the scene of the fire when a neighborhood box is rung. Chief Noble believed that the increase in traffic during the past few years has made it difficult for the department apparatus to travel through the streets so that he wished something would be done to lessen the number of times the fire trucks are called.
 Members of the board appeared in favor of the movement and it was decided to have the clerk write to the school board asking that it stand the expense of the purchase of the boxes and the fire department would furnish the labor for the installation of them. The total expense would be nearly s2o0 a box of which s150

MAYOR WELD PREDICTS INCREASED TAX RATE
Larger Grand List Will Not Meet Growing
 Expenses

An increased tax rate for the next fiscal year is forecast by Mayor Weld who today pointed to the fact that municipal expenses are continually growing as departments expand to meet the increasing needs of the en- la ged community. The present tax rate is 234 mills.
 In the opinion of many city off cials the budget for this year was cut too low in an effort to avoid an increase in the rate. The grand list which is to be published Friday will show approximately 0,000.000, it is understood. The increase in the list will not afford sufficient revenue to meet the anticipated higher cost of government. the city's financial leaders say.

Eric Sandstrom, Formerly of This City, Killed in
 California

Pending the outcome of q coro- ner's inquest into the death of Eric Sandstrom, who was instantly killed at Long Beach, Cal, Monday. the po- lice of that city are holding Charles E. Burke of Los Angeles Cal, al- legged drunken driver whose car struck the former local man.
 Burke is now booked on a charge of suspicion of murder In the meantime plans are being made for funeral services for the victim.
 Sandstrom lived on East street, this city, for nearly 15 years, leav- ing New Britain in 1923 for Cali fornia. He had worked here as a carpenter, being employed by the E. II. Hubbard Co, at one time and more recently by the William H. Allen Co. He made his home at 1924 Washington street, Long Beach.
 In company with his wife, and daughter, Miss Dorothy Sandstrom, he was returning to his home Mon day evening when one of the tires on his automobile was punctured. He drew the machine up to the roadside and lacked it preparatory to removing the lugs. While he was crouched beside the rear wheel, Burke's car came down the highway at an alleged excessive rate of speed and crushed Sandstrom against his own car, then picked him up and threw him 20 feet. His wife and daughter were eye witnesses of the fatality.
 The death car was damaged by the impact, but Burke made an ef- fort to get away. He was pursued and overtaken some distance down the highway and subjected to an ex- animation by police surgeons who pronounced him intoxicated. His ar rest followed.
 Sandstrom has no relatives in New Britain. Mrs. Sandstrom was former ly resident of Worcester, where her relatives now live. Besides his wife and the daughter who wit messed the death, he leaves another child, Miss Vera Sandstrom.

Diaz, Arrested Monday, Mysteriously Disappears From Sight and Is Believed to Have Been Already Deported.

Mexico City, Jan. F Pl-Bishop Pascual Diaz Of Tabasco, who was arrested on Monday morning, ap- parently has vanished.
 All traces of him have been lost since he was taken by the police to the department of the interior on Monday morning. but the fact that he sent home later for a suit case has confirmed the belief that he is being deported.
 According to Angel Torres, secre- tary to the bishop, the prelate was escorted by ten police agents in a motor car to Telexpan, few miles outside of the city where he board ed Vera Cruz train in tho company of two policemen.
 Dispatches from Vera Cruz say that the immigration authorities of deportation proceedings against the bishop and careful examina- ton failed to discover the prelate aboard the steamer Cuba when It sailed for Havana.
 The department of the interior has stated that it has no connection with the arrest of the bishop and that it has no knowledge Of his whereabouts, believing him quietly at home.
 The general opinion is that Bish op Diaz will next be heard from at some border point the same as Gen eral Alfredo Robles Dominguez who disappeared few weeks ago under similar circumstances and then showed up at Laredo a few days later.
