(ELEVEN NEW POLICE OFFICERS ARE NAMED Will Be onhProhation for Six Months’ Time Eleven new policemen were ap- pointed for a probationary period of six months; Mrs. Mettey, police ma- tron, was awarded the contract for general janftor work Acting Janitor Dennis O'Keefe was deposed but provision made to detail him for reg- ular patrol duty and several other matters of importance were transact- ed at the safety last night's meeting of board. Officers Are Appointed. When it came to the appointing of the new officers, Howard M. Steele, the new commissioner attending his first meeting, thought it advisable that before a man is appointed the com- missioners have a chance to look at him and judge something of his qual- ifications for themselves. He express- ed himself as in favor of postponing action until Friday night and then having the fifteen eligible candidates appear before the board. Chairman E. G. Babcock and Commissioner Mo- | ran were not in favor, however, and after some discussion as to the meth- od of election Chairman Babcock took charge and began reading off the | names. He chose the names as he saw fit and until ten officers had been appointed in rotation, without a dis- senting vote, the commissioners quickly endorsed the name proposed by their chairman. When it came to | the eleventh appointment Chn”man | Babcock suggested that inasmuch as | there were yet five candidates, the | commissioners vote for the man they | wanted. After a whispered consulta- | tion lasting several minutes Thomas | F. Woods was appointed, his compe- | titors being Ira Plerson. G. A. Carl- | son, T. P. Bachman and Charles F. Grace. The officers first appointed in the order of their appointment were Gus- tave Litke, Joseph F. Kennedy, T. C. Dolan, T. M. Birmingham, George C. Ellinger, Patrick J. Meehan, J. H. Kennedy, Thomas F. Heslin, M. C. Perry, Hanford W. Dart. Veteran Firemen Given Hearing. James McConkey, a veteran fireman seeking a pension, was given a hear- ing as the first business of the even- ing. He explained that on January 22, while working at a fire on Beaver street, he got pinned between a heavy | hose and the wall, the nerves of both legs being so numbed that it is diffi- | cult for him to walk and he will never | be able to do fire duty again. He said he can walk down stairs fairly well but has to go up on his hands and knees. Last night was the first time he had been down town after supper since he was injured. He showed certificates from Dr. J. L. Kelly and | Dr. Waterman Lyon, showing his condition. Mr. McConkey caused some | amusement when asked how long he had been in the fire department. He said he had been a fireman for twenty-seven years and had been ap- pointed in ‘1881, the year of the blizzard.” After some figuring the veteran smoke-eater explained that he was appointed a fireman in 1888 and that 1881 was the date of his mar- riage. Commissioner Babcock gave Mr. McConkey high praise. The board voted to postpone action pend- ing further investigation. It was voted to consider at some other time the petition of the-super- numeraries seeking more pay. Mrs. Mettey Gets Job—Maybe. The New Britain Window Cleaning |. company submitted a bid of $60 per month for doing janitor work at the police station. Previously this com- pany had offered to do it for $1 per day and the chairman explained that | the company had offered him several | different prices. He expressed him- self in favor of Mrs. Mettey, who vol- unteered to do the work for $60 per month. She was given the contract for three months on-probation. If she is satisfactory she will have the job permanently. | O’Keefe No Chauffeur. Then arose the question of what will become of Janitor Dennis O’Keefe and both Commissionefs Steele and Moran expressed a disinclination to vote him out of a job. It was de- | cided to have the chief keep him busy | by detailing him to do regular police duty. Mr. Steele suggested that he be the relief patrol driver during noon | hour, but Chairman Babcock put the quietus on this plan and said he did not consider him competent. He sug- gested the newly named Thomas Do- lan as a possibility for this job.

EARLY MORNING FATIGUE When you awakein the morning feel- ing tired out, feeling worse in fact than when you wentto bed, you areconfront- ed wit{x one of the characteristic symp- toms of neurasthenia. It is due to the run-down condition of the nerves that rest does not bring renewed strength and sleep refresh thetired brain. Over- work and worry are the most frequent causes of this condition, Neurasthenia is the name given to this common form of nervous debility in which the power to recuperate is gone. The blood can be built up so that it will increase the supply of needed ele- ments to the wasted nerves and this is the only way that the nerves can be renche({ Dr, Williams’ Pink Pills are a tonic that especially builds up the nerves because they supply to the blood the elements that the nerves need. Many nervous disorders, sometimes chronic ones, have yielded to this tonic treatment with Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills when other methods failed to.give re- lief. They are certainly worth a trial.
