A unique document has come into the possession of thg New London County Historical soclety. It is o ¢y of the New London Dailv Star of July 16, 1862, and it is interesting because it contains the names of the citizens of New London drafted at Norwich for service in the Civil war. The fact that the issue is an extra is heralded in black headlines. The extra refers to the extra importance of the copy and not to extra size evidently, for it is of handbill size, printed on one side only, and containing simply the list of the drafted men, Wity no other news.

When you_ think of it every ome knows that Beef is very strengthen- ing—that Iron gives tone and color and stability, and that Wine, when rightly used, is a highly nutritious natural tonic. There is of course a great deal of difference in the different makes, Smith's Beef, Iron and Wine 1s s perfectly balanced combination tn which only these ingredients in their highest quality are used. and it is made very palatable with pleasant tasting spices which also have a good effect on the stomach in increasing the flow of the gastric juices and ton- ing up the organs of assimilation.

Circular of Interest to Many Launch Owners in This Vicinity, Acting, BSecretary Herbert Knox Smith of the department of commerce and labor has forwarded / to custom houses a circular concerning the equipment of motor boats. The eireu- lar follows the announcement that a toat for patroliing will be assigned by the department to the custom house during the motor boat season. This circular tells what equipment is neces. sary under the law and should be of more than ordinary interést to motor boat owners. In the inspection district of New London, which includes Norwich, there are approximately 4,000 motor boats. The circular says: The department has received in- quiries as to the equipment required by the act of June 7, 1897, and sec- tion 4,426, revised statutes, to be car- ried on small motor vessels. In order to insure uniformity in the enforce- {ment of this law, you are informed | that small motor vessels, navigated in your district, should be equipped as follows: All motor vessels, without Tegard to size or use, must be provided with |an efficlent whistle, an efficient fog- { horn, and an efficient bell. No size or | style whistle, foghorn or bell is pre- bed, provided it Is available and flicient for the use for which It is intended. The word “efficient” must be taken in its ordinary sense, consid- ered with reference to the object in- tended by the provisions in which the word appears, namely, the production of certain signals. The power to op- erate the whistle is mot prescribed, but it must be of such a character as to jroduce a longed blast, which is defined as of from four to six seconds’ duration, ‘When navigated between sunset and | sunrise they must carry regulation lights, namely: A bright white light {at the bow or head of the vessel. A green light on the starboard side and a red light on the port side Provlded with proper screens. The siis lights |may be so affited to the coaming or | to the sides of the deckhouee as to be | properly screened provided the lantern | be backed with metal. Whenever the green and red side lights cannot be ready for use as provided by artlcle 6 of the act of Jume 7, The law does not appear-to psrmit the use of a three color combination light. A white light aft, showing all around the ho: zon, to range with the headlight. Such vessels are also required to have on board two printed coples of the rules, which must be observed by them, which rules will be furnisked hy the local inspectors of steam vessels on request. g # All such vessels of fifteen gross tons or less engaged in carrying passengers for hire. in_addition to the equipment above stated, are required to carry ons ilife preserved for each passenger car- ried and shall be operated only in charge of a person duly licensed by th= local inspectors of steam vessels. Suck vesseld when used only as private pleasure boats and not at any time e gaged in the carriage of passengers for | hire are not obliged jo comply with the provisions of the law in regard to life preservers and licensed gperators. While the law does not require it, the department recommends, in the Interest of safety to life, that a life preserver for each person on board be carried on all motor boats, regardless of size or occupation. All motor boats of over five net tons engaged: In the carriage of frelght or passengers for hire must be documented: that is to eay, lcensed by the collectors of cus- tors. (Vessels under five net tone are not documented in any case.) The N- cense of the vessel obtalned from the collector of customs (designated & dc- ument) s additional to and must not tba confounded with the llcenss required for the operator of a motor boat ef fifieen grees tons or less, carrving pas- sengers ror hire.
