It is announced that the twenty- seventh annual encampment " of the Connecticut brigade of the Knights of Pythias, Uniformed Rank, will be held under ‘tents at Lighthouse Point on July 39, 31 and August 1 and 2. There will be at least 400 members of 'med rank present and while g will afford much pleasure the friends of the various bodies which ‘will be gathered there—and there will be many hundreds of them from all parts of the state—the un- ifermed rank, it is said, has a plan of campaign laid out for them which will keep them busy. The affair will be the state brigade encampment for the Knights in this te, and as they follow very closely the regular military tactics it follows that a lot of hard work is ahead of the uniformed members. There will be 100 tents in the en- campment. Brigadier General George R. Tyron of Meriden, willbe in com- mand. Lieutenant Cgclonel' L. E.

The elec- tion of the other officers is in doubt. ' The military demonstration will be under the eve of the head of the order, Major General Arthur Solbart, of St. Paul, Minn, who wiH be present at the I days of the work.

UNITED MODERN WOODMEN. Norwich camp, No. 8908, has moved its headquarters from A. O. H. hall in the Austin block to the hall in the Bill block occupied by the Stationary Engineers. The meeting night has also been changed to the first and third Tuesday evenings of the month, the next meeting being held according to the new scheduls on July 26. 5 Attended English Wedding. Mrs. H., N. Cunningham of Water- town, who' is spending the summer in England, was one of the guests at the wedding of the Rev. Frederick Percival Farrar, rector of Sandring- ham and domestic chaplain . to the King and Miss Nora Davis, sister of Richard Harding Davis, which took %lrace on July 6 at St. Andrew's, ‘estminster.

There are many staid citizens of New London, and some of the more progressive, too, who are of opinion that the city should be competent to enforce all police regulations, state or citywise, without the aid of the state police, expression of the opinion being | given in connection with the present enforcement of the automobile laws by the motorcycle squad of the state po- lice. All of which sounds weil but it must be conceded that the local police are not equipped for that special work and that perhaps it would be a use- less expenditure for the city to so to the great expense it would be neces- sary to incur to add a motorcycle squad to the regular force. In the present membership there are very few who could ever master the motor- cycle, without which the automobile laws could not be enforced. While some of the automobile own- ers, who seem to be of the opinion that they, and they alone, have ali the rights of the highways, are utterly op- posed to the invasion by outside offi- cers, the general public heartily ap- proves of the work that has been and is being done by the state policemen. It has had the effect of lessening the reckless driving and it noted that when an automobilist biows the signal horn to those crossing a stre thal there is a slow down of speed at the same time. Before the advent of the state police, it was a clear case of blowing the horn, then get out of the way or take the consequences. Some of these automobile drivers seemed to act almost as irdepend spect as the engineer of a fa: travelling over a line where ther uo deubt as to privilege and right of way. What's the matter with the cottagers at Ocean Beach? Are they. afflicted with the exclusive fever? Pcrhaps they would, if they could, bar the public from the pleasure of visiting that nat- ural day resort. Or, it may be, that there are no more sites for sale. For several ycars L ottagers have been at considerable ense in having a Beach Jay and advertising the event broadcasi, w the resuic of thousands visiting the beach during the day to enjoy the track events and also in the evening to enjoy the band concert, the firewo ard the cance carnival and general iilumination. Everything possible, was done for the pleasure of visitors and the cottagers seemed to share the pleasure. In order to properly arrange for the annual Beach day, an association was formed and some of the most active among the cottagers served on the committce of arrangements and managed the whole affair and the expenses were cheerfully paid by the cottagers, aided of course, by the trolley company. Heretofore, the arrangements were well under way before this time in the season. Up to the present time no arrange- ment has been made for Beach day celebration, and it has been unofficially arnounced that there will be no big celebration of Beach day at Ocean beach during the present summer to which the generai public will be in- vited. A reason is given that the cot- tagers have not the time to devote to the arranging for the event, although there is nothing to dndicate that these men have any more urgent business to attend to this season than they did last year, or the year before for that matter. Some of the best of celebra- tions have been gotten up on short notice and there is stiil amplestime for the Ocean beach colony and the trolley company to get together and continue the annual custom that has afforded so much pleasure to the cottagers at the beach and the visitors. The low water pressure in some sec- tions of the city and the consequent lack of fire protection, which was brought to public attention by the récent fires in Lincoln avenue and Waller streets, must not be taken as indicative that low pressure of water at the fire hydrants is the rule in this city, for it is not. At the great ma- jority of the fire hydrants the pressure is ample for fire purposes and low pressuré prevails in but few sections, and in these the conditions are to be improved. However, the facts have set the firemen talking and they wish the public to understand that they are ever reacy to do fire duty, but that they cannot cope with fire unless they have an abundant supply of water for the purpose, and like many other things in life, fires are liable to occur at any time and-in any locality, re- gardless of the water suppi Speaking of hydrants the question is raiced whether these hydrants are properly inspected and ready for serv- ice in any emergency? They should be tested occasionally, and that means more than once a year, to ascertain if they are in proper working order, for a defective hyvdrant in a high water pressure section even would be fully It is Intimated That the Cotiagers Do Nof NEW LONDON PRESSING CELEBRATION Low Water Pressure and Lack of Fire Protection in Some Parts of New London—Senator Mahan Has Done More For His District Than Any Man Who Ever Represented It—Peculiar Burglaries in Which Clues > . oe — as inefficient as a good hydrant in a low water section, and perhaps mose so. The chief engineer has the time, and no doubt the inclinaticn to do this work at frequent intervals in connec- tion with the water department, pro- vided there is a fund for meeting the extra expense, as it is not expected that the salaried chief engineer would do this work unassisted. This is a matter that is entitled to attention and should not be delayed until such time as defacts were found at times when they were required for active fire serv- ice. The voters of this republican sena- torial district made no mistake when they elected Mayor Bryan F. Mahan, of New London, to represent the dis- trict “in the state senate, for the in- terests of New London and Groton are identical and what is good for one place is good for the other, and the mayor-senator has and advanced the best interests of his constituency and the state at large. He has done more for the district than any man that ever represented it in the senate and at the same time has gained for himself a favorable promi- nence equal to that of any citizen of the state. There was once upon a time when Mr. Mahan was a shrewd and perhaps unprincipled politizal schemer, as those things go in politics, and naturally lost friends in his own party and gained friends among the opposition. Mr; Mahan is a_ changed man in that respect and he has risen from the ranks of political tricksters, so-called, discarded that get-even spirit that once predominated in his natu and has become one of the first ci zens of the state and commanding the respect and admiration of many who were his bitterest political enemies. it is hats off to Mahan now for he is decerving of the respect of his en- tire constituency. He has acccomplish- ed so much during the present session that it is almost impossible to enum- erate them all, even if every measure was of more than ordinary magnitude. His latest achievement is the passage cf the measure in'tne senate and house for the state to issue bonds of $1,000,000 for the purpose of develop- ing the natural advantages of New Londen harbor, not only that his na- tive city of New London and the across the river neighbor would -be benefitted by the proper utilization of the harbor facilities, but that eventu- allv the benefits would reach to all sections of the state in one way or an- other. The state is showing its inter- est in harbor development and there- by doing just what is being done in the state of Massachusetts for Boston harbor and by Rhode Island for Prov- idence, as these two states are pre- paring to enter into competition for the increasing trans-continental trade that New London expects to secure. It is spray to sea foam that before New London barbor is properly pre- pared for the handling of this foreign trade that there will be at least one regular line of steamships plving be- tween the port of New London and some foreign port. In fact, even now, the officers of a Norwegian line are seriously considering New London as its American terminal. But leave such little matters as get- ting business after the facilities are in readiness to Senator Mayor Mahan. He is not of the kind that will advo- cate a legislature matter of this kind t6 a successful issue and then let it drop, but is the pure personification of persistent effort -that is sure to be crowned with success. . The mere presence of the state po- lice in New London and the mistakin. of a request for a warning, cause quite a score and financial loss to the proprietor of one of the local club pro- prietors. The clubman had recently beeén arrested and fined for wviolation of the liquor law for selling without a county license. Some of his stock had been taken as evidence in the case but as it was not declared forfeited to the state it was still the clubman’s prop- erty and was held at police headquar- ters for the owner. One day during the present week, Police Lieutenant | Thomas Jeffers met the clubman and told him to come to the police station with a basket and take his stuff awa as the room was needed at the station, The clubman thanked the lieutenant and hurried away to his club room. As soon as he arrived at the room he commenced to open several cases of beer and pour the contents into the i and to the sewer. Then followed v drop of whiskey and other liquors on the premises. After this was accomplished he took his govern- ment license receipt and hurried with it to the police station. He handed the document to Lieutenant Jeffers and thanked him profusely for giving him the warning declaring that he did not want to get into the clutches of the state police. Jeffers was puzzled at the start but soon tumbled to the situa- certainly guarded [ Washboilers Make Good Drums, Says Anty Drudge. Bobbie—*‘See my drum?”’ (Banil! Bth‘g!'

Get some Fels-Naptha seap and you can wash his clothes and all the others easier, quicker and better in cold or lukewarm water, without boiling.’’ ke Light summer clothes are more easily damaged than winter fabrics. Thatis good and sufficient reason why they should be washed with Fels-Naptha in cold or luke- warm water. In washing with Fels-Naptha there is no boiling or cooking to weaken the deli- cate fibres, no hard-rubbing to fray them, no injurious chemicals to eat holesin them. " But there are other reasons. It is far easier on the woman who does the wash- ing. There is no hard-rubbing, no blister~ ing fire, no scalding suds to steam the face and redden the hands: Fels-Naptha soap does its work best in . cold or lukewarm water, dissolving the dirt so it can be washed away with a simple rinsing. Sounds easy and comfaortable, doesn’t it? And it is just as easy and com- fortable as it sounds if you use Fels-Naptha the Fels-Naptha way. Follow the directions on the red g@ green wrapper. it would therefore seem to be tlon. The clubman understood the po- J duty to pay more attention to lice lieutenant to say that the state police were to raid his place and ad- vised him to get rid of his stock and to bring the government license to the police stdtion. Then the police officer laughed heartily: he couldn’t help it; investigations. possessed. In justice to the clubman be it said that he is occasionally af- flicted with a slight deafness. Herald. Delicately There have been several store burg- faries in New London in the past few years, some that were the work of strangers and in some of these in- stances arrests resulted. In some of these cases the police made thorough and rapid examination and then let the cases drop as if they were of molten lead and with a thud that spattered in many directions. It ig said that in the course of the investigations they got upon clues that were not satisfy- ing to those who had been victimized and the police were not urged to carry the investigations to the end. In one or more instances there were circum- stances that were peculiar and to the police very plain and perhaps mystify- ing to the owners of the premises, but no extra effort was made to get the burglars in the toils. There was a burglary this very week that indicates that the burglar was not only acquainted with the interior of the store, and perhaps the manner in which the safe was only partially locked, but knew just how to get into the store from the rear by entrance from another street. In fact, knew just as much about the conditions as those who are regularly employed in the store. Even the manager of the store declares that the burglary was committed by someone who was very familiar with the premises.
