And Improvements 
The Eliot house at Beverly Farms, 
owned by O. H. Luke, damaged by 
fire last week, is to be remodelled and 
some additions are to be built. Publi- 
cover Bros. are the contractors. The 
insurance agents were down from Bos- 
ton this week and adjusted the loss. 
Mrs S. Parkman Blake is to have 
some additions built to her cottage at 
West Manchester. The greenhouse 
has already been raised and an addi- 
tion built to it. Publicover Bros. are 
doing the work. 
Flatley’s Safety Staging Clamp, an 
invention by Domnick Flatley, of the 
Manchester firm Morley, Flatley & 
Co., is to play an important part in 
building construction in the future. 
The device, which is very simple, in- 
deed, has been patented, and applica- 
tions for patents have also been made 
in Canada and in England. The 
clamp is used in stagings and scaffolds 
and is used in place of nails in holding 
timber and boards together, and it is 
claimed that it is much stronger. 
Builders all know that considerable 
expense is gone into in building stag- 
ing, and that the lumber used is not 
much good to be used for a similar 
purpose the second time. By using 
the safety clamp the boards and tim- 
ber can be used over and over again. 
Not only is much cost eliminated in 
this way, but much time is also saved, 
and accident liability is decreased. 
There is no nailing to the sides of the 
building or boring of holes. The 
clamp can also be used in erecting 
temporary bridges, platforms, etc. It 
is said that Mr. Flatley has refused an 
offer of $30,000 from a big contractor 
in Buffalo, N.Y. 
A. J. Orr is painting the large 
greenhouses and other work at the 
Philip Dexter estate in Manchester. 
He is also finishing the chairs used at 
the summer theatre on the Essex 
County club grounds, and has the 
contract to paint the large cottage 
for J. Warren Merrill. 
Connolly Bros. have started work 
on the estate of Caleb Curtis, 
Crow Island, Manchester, which con- 
sists in part of the rebuilding and 
changing over of the avenues, walls, 
gutters, and carries with it consider- 
able blasting, grading, planting and 
landscape work. 
This same firm have also a fore- 
man and a gang of men at work at 
Clifton upon the estate of Somerfield - 
Hagerty and is doing considerable 
grading and landscaping work there.
