For them the heat and no terrors. hey were cool and comfortable. From three-vear-old Arthur Williams, son of Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Williams, of 130 Hart street, to dignified young ladies of fifteen, they splashed swam, floated, throd water, sat in it, stood under the shower at the fountain, caught polliwogs and water bugs and otherwise disported them- selves to their hearts’ content. The young children stayed close to the bank where the water is shallow but the older ones swam or waded clear out to where it reaches a depth of about four feet. All were having a good time. Many woull go in and swim for awhile, then come out and lie on the bank for a rest. Quite a number of mothers and several fathers were among the interested spectators. Discipline Enforced. “No, we never have any trouble that amounts to anything,” said Park Policeman Thomas Stanton, in reply to a query. “We have strict rules and are careful to enforce them.” Among the rules is one which re- quires each youthful bather to wear a bathing suit to be either a union suit or tg consist of two pieces. That this rule is enforced was proven by the statements of a young man when asked why he was not swimming. "I was in and got chucked out,” he answered “Why?" asked his inter viewer. “Cause I aint got no jerse was the reply in grammar calculatel to give that young man's school teacher an attack of horrors. In case of trouble among youngsters Officer Stanton is whole police department, judge, and executioner in the park. mister policeman,” cried a lady with fire in her eyes and tones of indignation in her voice, “this boy won't let me swim,” suiting : tion to her words she pointed an ac- -using finger at a sullen-looking young man whose face was covered with freckles. “I aint done nothin’,” insisted the boy. But Officer Stanton is nothing if not a gentle- man and in true chivalric spirit the lady's word was given preference. “You dress and get right out of the water, and go home and don’t come back until you learn how to behave,™” was the official verdict, from which there was no appeal. The young man will not be denied the privileges of the pool tomorrow if he does not further annoy others. Water wings were very much in evidence as were one piece bathing suits. No restric- tions have been placed on the latter. Need a Bathhouse. One amusing incident, which hocked, not only the representative of law and order, but also the case- hardened newspaperman, who is sup- posed to be beyond shocking, em- phasized the urgent need of a bath- house where the children can change the e the jur: young stoutly their clothing. As the two men walked down a path from the pool they suddenly came face to face with three juvenile mermaids whose ages probably would not exceed five years. The young girls were clad in all the youthful ibeauty endowed them by Mother Nature and apparently scorneéd suc¢h plebeian things as wear- ing apparel as beneath the aesthetio taste of true daughters of *“Septem- ber Morn.” “Hey, you kids, beat it right back into the bushes and get some clothes on,” cried the horri- fied officer, and the incident was closed. New Uniform. For the first time Officer Stanton is wearing a uniform as he goes his rounds. It is khaki color and con- sists of shirt, trousers, leggings and cap. The cap is of the bell-shaped style known as the “Pennsylvania Police Cap.” and is similar to the ones worn by the Pennsylvania mounted constabulary. A shield of silver, to contain the words, *“Park Police,” will ornament the front of the cap. Recovered Watch. Joseph Miglinyz, 17 years old, 1 mute residing at 33 Lee street, was made happy vesterday when watch, which he claimed wx from him at the park recentl returned by Officer Stanton. The of- ficer recovered the time piece where it had been hidden in the bushes. Miglinyz claims it was taken from the pocket of his trousers recently whi he was swimming. . Must Leave At Six. One of the rules of the swimming pool is that which requires all chil- dren to leave at 6 o'clock in ihe cvening. This is done for their own protection After six o'clock is the time the older element gathers in the park and the curfew law is to save the children from annoyance. At 11 o'clock the park is closed to all. Many children spend entire days about the pool. ofttimes bringing their lunch and not. infrequently ac- companied by one or both parents. Sunday Concerts. A force of carpenters is at work repairing the sides and steps of the bandstand getting it ready for con- certs during the summer. A splendid concert was given Sunday evening by the Military band. Two concerts of which at least one if not both, will be given by this organization on July 4th.

Torrington, June 23.—Fire of un- determined origin started at 9 o’clock last night on the second floor, dam- aged the old needle shop on Railroad square here, with a loss estimated at about $5,000 The fire was dis- covered in the shop of the Quamv Overall Co.
