State Funds to Aid in Ma cadanlizing Stretch
 of Highway

Highway Commissioner John A.. Macdonald today announced two new highway improvement pro- jects, one consisting of the con- struction of. a small concrete bridge and nearly a mile and a quarter of waterbound macadam pavement, and the other calling for slightly more than one mile of trap rock macadam pavement.
 The first named job will be un- dertaken in the Town of Hamp- ton on the Kimball Hill road Route No. 97. The bridge will measure ten feet and is of the skew span, concrete slab type. The paving will measure 6,696 feet. This is a PWA project on which the federal government will pay 30 percent of the cost of labor and materials and the state will foot all other bills
 The second project will be done in the Town of Bethany with state aid funds. It will consist of D. S71 feet of macadam on the pres ent unpaved stretch which connects the so-called upper and lower Bethany roads, the former running between New Haven and Nauga- tuck and the latter between New Haven and Waterbury via Prospect Sealed bids on both proposals will be received from contractors at the State Highway department offices in the State Office Building Hartford, until 2:00 P.

SPLENDID PROGRAM FOR A. 0. H. PARTY
Annual Observance O1 Thanksgiving to Be
 Held This Evening

Tonight will be a gala one for those attending the annual Thanks
 giving. celebration of fMonsignor Slocum branch of the Ancient Or der of Hibernians. The affair

 will feature an entertainment, dancing and the presentation of fifteen big, handsome turkeys as prizes. The committee in charge
 of the celebration reported today that Hibernian hall will be filled
 to capacity for the event.
 The annual event sponsored by Monsignor Slocum branch is always a most enjoyable one. Tonight's
 program will be no exception. If
 anything, the program will surpass those of past years.
 The fifteen turkeys to be given away are the finest that the com mittee could find. The committee includes James Hackett, Edward
 Doyle, James A. Dillon, Patrick Hartigan and John Bresnahan. Some of the city's best singers,
 dancers and instrumentalists will
 make up the list of entertainers | for this evening. Dancing, both modern and old-fashioned, will follow and continue till midnight. All in all. most enjoyable evening
 is in store for all attending the eel ebration.

ney McDonough, who is president of the Waterbury Bar ociati0n despite his residence in Naugatuck, are being strongly backed for the superior court bench appointment from Governor Cross.
 During 1895 the terms of Super our Court Judge John Rufus Booth of New Haven and Judge Carl Eos ter of Bridgeport will expire. Gov ernor Cross is expected to reap- point them in accordance with past practices. However. the vacancy occurring on the supreme court bench, to be followed up with an appointment from the superior court bench, will give Governor Cross two posts to fill on the su-' perior court roster. Waterbury~ Naugatuck recognition is being am ticipated by democratic political leaders.
 The fact that Mayor Frank Hayes of this city will become lieu in January, is ex- pected to give added weight to the attempt on the part of the Nauga- tuck valley bar to be given added recognition on the high court bench. Judge Mascolo is under- stood to be in the lead with Attor= ney McDonough of Naugatuck and, Waterbury in second place. The latter was one of the authors of ths workmep's compensation act which since 1914 has been a great aid to those injured in the course of thesr employment.
 Interest in the selection of the two superior court judges will be great this year in view of the fact that there are only couple Of democrats on the superior court bench in comparison to an over- whelming majority of g. o. p. in- cumbents.

mbian Squires Awarded National Honors
ARGUMENTS HEARD
 ON JURY VERDICT.
Motion Made to Set Award Aside = Jurors COnl-
 potency Questioned

Judge Edward J. Finn of the court of common pleas late yester- day afternoon reserved decision on a motion to set aside the defend ant verdict in the damage suit of Mrs Elizabeth Darlington against Arthur Bobb. The jury rendered it's verdict last week Mrs Darlington sued to recover for injuries receiv- ed on an alleged defective step leading to a house on South Main street in which she was a tenant and of which the defendant is the owner. Attorney George Lynch, counsel for Mrs Darlington, argued yesterday that one of the jurymen had admitted following the rendi- ton of the verdict that he did not know the difference between the plaintiff and defendant in civil action.
 Judge Finn late yesterday also reserved decision on motions to set aside $2,000 verdict in the case of Celestine Boileau of Hotchkiss- vile against the Connecticut Com pany and John Williams. Motions were filed by both defendants. MT Boileau sued to recover for injuries received when the Williams car al- legedly crashed into the rear of a Connecticut Company bus while he was alighting from the latter.
 In the superior court a motion to set aside the plaintiffs verdict in the suit of Harvey Page against Joseph B. Els was filed yesterday. The plaintiff received $7,500. His wife was also awarded $7.500 and his son was awarded $500 for in- juries received by the trio in an auto accident. Only one motion to set aside the verdict has been filed. however. Arguments will be heard next week,

Sylvan Avenue Residents Protest Series of
 Petty Thefts
WASHINGTON HILL

Residents of Sylvan avenue in the vicinity of Edgewood avenue are going to ask for more police protection in the near future ii the clothes line thief or thieves continue to walk away with the wearing apparel every time it is put on the line. Some of the resi- dents were inclined to, believe that it was the work of youngsters playing Hallow' pranks, but il seems that some one in need Ot mems shirts and stockings is pre- parting for the winter and is stock ing up for the cold months in the future.
 A short while ago one of the residents on Sylvan avenue had his car packed up in the yard and the rear tires were removed. This in- cident was the beginning of the series of thiefs which since then has been going on for the past month or so. The motor patro makes a tour of the section during the night but there is a possibility that the person responsible for the work either times the coming of the police patrol in the section or that he has no regards for the police. Unless the person is soon taken into custdy the women of the section have decided to set a certain time to hang out the wash and will have to bring 1t in nights before dark.

Waterbury, during the past few months, has gained at one swoop a new form of recreation, new business enterprise for dealers and jobbers, and a new form of revenue for the municipality-all because of the advent here of the amusement machines knows as pin games" The mushroom-like growth of the pin-game business nationally is very definitely reflected here, for there is scarcely a tavern, restaur- ant, barber shop, drug store or pool haal in the city which has not on hand at least one of the machines for play by the customers.
 Pin games are licensed by the Waterbury police department for two dollars a year, coming under the head of amusement machines. Startling is the fact that already this year, the city has licensed con- siderably more than 300 such games, bringing in. revenue in ex- cess of $500. More machines are being licensed daily, and the fig ure by Dec. 31st may reach as high as 500 licensed pin games and $1,- 900 in revenue for Waterbury.
 Machines Unlicensed
 In addition, it is believed that there are number of unlicensed machines in the city, but the growth of the games popularity has been so rapid here that police have found it almost impossible to keep a constant check on tn eli cense status of the games in oper. ation.
 Most of the pin-games in opera tion about Waterbury are handled by several pobbers, who have a virtual monopoly on the, business here. The usual procedure is for the operator to place a machine in an establishment, and to split with the owner of the place on the proceeds.
 The games vary a great deal in names and methods of play, but virtually all are basically the same Most of the ga0nes require a nickel play, which gives the player ten balls to shoot for various high scores or goals. Already in many places, so regular is the play of the machines, that there. are players leagues in operation, sometimes with considerable betting as to the

Judge Edward Mascolo of the local city court and Attorney John F. McDonough, former warden and judge of the borough of Naugatuck were prominently mentioned for superior court judgships today. By reason of the fact that he has reached the age limit, one judge will have to drop off the superior court bench during the coming term of Governor Wilbur l.. Cross. In addition, one of the members of the supreme court bench will also have to retire by reason of the state statute governing age.
 Advancement of one judge from the superior court bench to the su- preme court will cause one va cancy. The other position will be made open when Judge Frederick M. Peasley of this city and Chesh- ire reaches the age limit of 70 years during the next year and a half although his term. ordinarily, would not expire until 1887.

1 on behalf of the hundreds of K. of c. councils that are sponsoring leisure time programs through his Bureau of the Supreme council. Particular gratification was voiced by Grand Knight john F. Robinson over the fact that this was the initial participation of the new circle in the national contest. He also expressed his pleasure at the recognition there. is accorded to the zeal and untiring efforts of MT Wallace as well as the mani- festation of such definite qualities of leadership in Catholic Action by Chief Squire James A. Phelan, Jr, and his staff of officers.
 MT Wallace attributed the suc- cess of the circle to the complete co-oneration accorded by officers and member of Sheridan Council and urged that these efforts be maintained so that McGivney Cir cle might maintain its position at the head of the list.
 Deputy Grand Knight Cornelius F. Maloney and Chancellor Jam es F. Colwell also showered praise on the circle, it's officers, and it's coun- selors for the splendid record of achievement as typiHeu Dy the HrSt month award.

 Pin games have been in this ter ritory more or less for several years, but their greatst gain in popularity has been made since the beginning of 1884. The machines themselves vary a great deal in the amount they cost the jobber some coming as high as $S9.50, others selling for as low as $19.50. The center of the pin-game industry is in Chicago, where most of the ma chimes are mad. but New York and Brooklyn also have several large firms.
