Beats is More Satisfying to the Mayor Than to- the Patrol- men. Although the rumor that there is to be an all-the-year-round hotel in the Pequot colony 24 partially on the site of the old Pequot house, and to be one of the most modern hotels within the salt-water view, is in part denied, the fact remains that there is certainly “something ‘doing” in that fashiona- ble section and that there will be di- vulging of the whole scheme before the present season of 1911 comes to an end. There is report current that the entire plot of land fronting on Pequot avenue and including. the Palmer, Learned, and Pequot house site prej erty down as far as the Jones rei dence, at Glenwood avenue, and ex- tending back and including the Kirk- land and Pequot properties on Glen- wooa avenue and the several plots in Chappell street, are all to come under one - ownership, perhaps a syndicate. This would give one extensive tract of land extending clear back to Montauk avenue, and. would mean the elimina- tion of Chappell street. It would make an ideal site for an immense hotel with spacious grounds and include a sea and country view that would be unsurpassed on the Atlantic coast. Rumors ,of this class are invariably lacking in verification, for as a rule capitalists are not . divulging their plans to the public much in.advance of actual operations. Not long age the Pequot company, composed in the main of Senator Frank B. Brandegee, owner of the Pequot house site, acquired by pur- chase the Gipert property in the rear. and in the rear of this property and continuing on- ‘to Montauk avenue is the Kirkl place. The ds are now having a new home construct- ed at the.corner of Gardner and Mon- tauk avenues, which is plain indication that they are to abandon their pleas- ant, spacious home for the new. The Kirkland property also occupies almost one side of Chappell street.” North of this property and adjoining the same is the Learned property, and the sev- eral cottages owned by the Learneds are being removed and it is said that the location of the Learmed residence is to be cmh;nzuo:?

POSITIVELY THE BEST VALUES ON EARTH BROOKLYN OUTFITTERS, 266-270 Main - Street, - Norwich. “The Store That Satisfiés.” buy oranges and peanuts from a No wich wholesale firm. He says he can not buy first class fruit in New Lon- don, as none is obtainable, but had to pay the price of first class goods for a second class article, and °that his customers had to do likewise. He was dissatisfied and so were his customers but now the retaller is happy and so are his customers, as they are enabled to get the best products of the orange groves purchased but not grown in the Rose of New England. The local dealer says that it must cost more to land:oranges in Norwich than in New London, still he can buy first class fruit in Norwich for the same price that is charged for an in- ferior grade in New London, and he has therefore transferred his trade in that particular line to Norwich. This same dealer declares that in the sev- eral lines of goods carried in his bus- iness, aside from ‘fruit, that he .can get better goods from Norwich_houses and at _no increase in price than he can in New London. He dislikes very much to spend his good money that ould go into the tills of New Lon- on dealers to Norwich firms, but de- clares that he must do it to maintain hisg local trade that demands the best goods “obtainable, the customers ob- jecting to paying the highest prices for inferior goods. This is a matter that ought to reccive the attention of the New London beard of trade and the New London business men’s as sociation; but perhaps this cannot be done consistently, as it is alleged that some of the officers and members of both booming organizations, or organ- izations of boomers, do not as a rule patronize -home merchants, and per- haps for reasons similar to that given by the dealer in fruits. — \ Unless_conditions change, a bronze tablet will be placed on the old pow- der magazine in the Fort Trumbull reservation to Captain Shapley, who was in command of the fort during the revolutionary period, before the epitaph of Robert Emmet is written. It is many, many years since Captain Shapley wielded the sword and gave the werd of command, and his acts of bravery would probably have been for- gotten, in the years to come, but for the action of the local branch of the Sons of the American Revolution which has voted to perpetuate, l““nem«ry of Shapley on a tablet at nze. magazine is all that i§ left of thc original fort, and therefore its gran- ite front is the most fitting place for the memorial tablet, ‘ It ig" well; that this patriotic organization came into existence and with it the Daughters and the Children of the American Rev- olution, that the names of the Heroes. of Seventeen Seventy-Six miight have perpetual perpetuation. Although in existence but. & of the kindred organizations i idence all over the country and it is uf the character that is everlasting. In the near future a committes will be selected to arrange for the erection and the dedication of Shapley and the obtaining of the federal government the required permission to place the tablet within the fort reservation. The new system of changing the beats of th. po . qulrt-rly s evi- dently satisfyin, the mayor and to the police commlttee for the: plan is to be continued and thers will be an- other change to go into effect Sat- urda; There will be a complete change with the exception of the re- tention of Officer Walter as night- keeper of the police station; and Offi- cer Sheehan will be kept upon the same beat at the Pequot that he has patrolled ever since he gave up the work of handling stone to swinging a night stick. Once leaving the station, after reporting for duty, he is not heard from at police quarters until he reports for duty the next evening, unless he happens to want the patrol wagon, which is almest as rare an event as the flying of the American flag from the staff on the roof of the city hall. - Ever since the police signal system became useless, he has no way of reporting at intervals to headquar- ters, and as his residence is in the Pequot “section he is not required to walk to the police station at four o'clock in the morning to report off duty, or anything else. It is well that he is a thoroiighly reliable officer, or such a condition might not be for the best interests of the police force. It may be all right to m‘n.k?tz these changes quarterly, but there are scme who do not think that the public is best served by these frequent changes, as officers are shifted just as they —Savansah Pr Taldng No_ Ohances.
