Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: You see, I cannot keep out of the Cor- ner very long; but I will make the let- ter brief, as our ki 2ditor informs us that letters are waiting to be print- Pldl and we are anxious to read them all. I wanted Sister Bluebird of Plaln- field to have the recipe she asked for so she could have home-made Cream Puffs for Easter. Cream Puffs—Boll together one cup hot water and one-half cup of butter, stirring in one cup of dry flour while boiling. When this i{s cold, add three ©ggs, not beaten; stir well; drop by tablespoons on buttered tins, bake 20 minutes in a quick oven, being careful not to open the oven door oftener than necessary, as that will make them fall. This recipe makes 15 puffs. For the cream, take one cup of mill, one-half cup of sugar, one egg and three tablespoons of flour. Boil as for any custard and flavor to taste. When both the puffs and the custard are cold, gflen puffs carefully on the side and These are delicious and not at all difficult to make. ‘With best wishes for a joyful Baster to- all members of the Social Corner family, from FAYE VERNA.

' NORWICH BULLETIN, SA APRIL MAHAN TALKED OF FOR CONGRESS Looking About For Mayoralty Timber in the Event of Such a Stand—Roundsman Named For Police Force—Need a Police Signal System—Much Conjecture as to How Money Will be Spent For Fire Department. | There is political talk and poliu('al, doings in New London every day in| the year, but as election time nears there is simply an increase in volume and that's all. The republicans have | alrgady held caucus and named Taft | delegates to the state convention, and | soon the democrats will go and do likewise. But national politics is at present secondary to local affairs. It secms to be generally coneceded that Mayor Mahan will be the democratic nomjnee for congressman from the | new Third district, 4nd candidates for the mayoralty are cropping out almost | daily, for with Mayor Mahan out the Tace there is chance for someone | else getting it, for it is considered a | fact tnat there is not a man among | the many men in the city who cou win that office from the present in- cumbent. On the republican side quite a num- ber have been prominently mentioned tut only one who has come to the gront and center and openly expressed | is willingness to be the party'si sianoard bearer in the mayoralty race is Alderman Samuel Prentis, one of the mest active members of the party, and who is one of éku very few mem- bers of the presenf court of common council who shows any signs of op- position to Mayor han and his characteristic progressivene Mz Prentis is the representative of the council on the board of water and sew- er commissioners and is quite a mixer. He is one of the aldermen from the Second ward, nominated against the wishes of the party leaders and elect- oG practically without opposition. He shows deep interest in all matters of municipal interest, provided they are not guided by the personal magnetism and influence of Mayor Mahan, It is not believed that the party will pre- sent the nomination to Mr., Prentis on & silver salver, but if he gets the nom- inatior he will have to make a fight for it. He has shied his castor in the ring and declares he is ready to mee ail comers in the contest. 3 Although Mayor Mahan was nomi- nated by the democrats, his election by a large majority does not follow that the city is democratic, although some of the wards do occasionally elect democratic representatives in the city government. Trained politiclans, the valuable kind who do the paper ‘work for the party, unhesitatingly de- clare that on a strict party vote New London's normal republican majority is at least four hundred. But in New London the personality of the candi- date is teken under consideration, as was shown in the recent election when Thomas R. Murray, candidate on the democratic ticket for member of the board of assessors, ran away ahead of his party vote, led some of the re- publican candidates for other offi and came within an ace of belng elect- ed, while the average republican ma- jority in that particular election was about three hundred. With this fine test of popularity and his previous experience as a member of the court of common council, and a fearless one at that, his political friends are groom- ing him as the democratic nominee for mayor to run against Mr. Prentis or any other man. Mr. Murray, like Mr. Prentis, is native of New London. They are both trained political workers and should they be pitted against each other in the mayoralty contest, the campaign would probably be as lively as the first pitched battle between former Mayor B. L, Armstrong when he won from the present mayor, although was considered during the campaign that Armsirong, green at the gam pol tics, was not in the same s wit Mahan, the .seasoned politicia the hero of many political fights, against men trained down fo the minute in the game of politics. But when the ballots were counted it was learned that the Armstrong politics were not correctly figured for he had met his political adversary at his own game and won. ‘While Mayor Mahan is being boomed in and out of the district for con- gress, he is pursuing his usual tactics by reinaining silent until the time ac tually arrives, Then if he wants the honor he will step right in and win. But if the situation does not look good to him, if he does not consider the chances of election good, he will ar- range that his name will not be men- tioned in the congressional convention, Speaking of mayoralty candidates, it should be remembered that, with Mahan shelved for congress, there are republicans that would command the vote of the people, practically without regard to party, if they would consent to nomination. There are not many such men, just a few, and the most popular of them all is George S. Palmer, who, since his coming to New London, has shown intense interest in all that concerns the good and wel- fare of the city and is doing much to- wards iis general advance, beautifica- tion ard w=eneral attractiveness. In the gooa old summer time, when the flowers are in bloom, he opens his spa- clous and beautiful flower gardens| connected with his mansion in the Pe- quot colony, to all the people of the city, that they may enjoy the beauti- ful that conditions do not permit them to cultivate in such variety and beau- ty.

The park com- missioners and the mayor considered that tract ideal for park purposes, and decide¢ upon that tract as the first to be purchased in connection with the park system, just as soon as it was deemed expedient to issue the bonds. Mr, Palmer re; that the proper time to purct now, for tomor- w or some time later there might a materfal increase in price of the property and conditions of sale. So he quietly purchased the entire prop- erty on his own account, paid the cash and became the owner.

Lon Not only the usual quarterly changes have been made in the beats of the policemen, but for the first time a& member of the force has been assigned to visit the patrolmen while they are on their tour of duty and see that they are doing their full duty. Yes, aiter many years, there is & soundsman connected with the police department, Officer Benjamin Beebe, one of the oldest members of the force and among the most efficient, has be eved of special detective duty and gned as roundsman. This innovation will be welcomed by the ers who never shirk duty, but the e no report on and off duty regu- larly and who do as little duty as possible, do not like the changed sit- uation, Hereafter, the officers will all be on their jobs every minute, for they will know not the time or the place where the roundsman will be awaiting their coming, and if they do not come the fact will be reported and the offi- cers higher up will know the reason why, Officer Beebe is a faithful man and while performing his duty roundsman will be at the same ti doing effective patrol duty, with some detective work on the side. The inno- vation Il result in an improvement of the efficiency of the police depart- ment But what is needed even more than rouncsman is a police signal system to" rep the em that was in vogue a couple of yvears ago, but con- demned on account of unrellability. Until this is done the very best of service cannot be had from the police force. There were several matters relating to the fire department sprung at the meeting of the court of common coun- cil, and among them was one that in- dicated that Alderman Thomas E. Donohue had an eye on that $6,000 that had been appropriated for modern fire apparatus. The alderman is fore- man of the Nameaugs and would like to have the machine for the company with which he is connected—not an unnatural desire, but considered by some to be a trifle selfish rather than a broad desire for the general good of the department. It Is known that the sum appropriated is inadequate for the purpose and for that reason nothing has been done definitely towards the purchase of the machine, although the committee has several plans under consideration. Mr. Donohue has found a v by diverting an appropriation that had been made for another pur- pose, but which cannot be done if the rules that govern the council are re- spected. He suggested that the un- expended balance for repairs to the Konomoc house be added and the ma- chine be purchased and that room could be made for it in the Nameaug house, fect dental work causes patients to send their friends to me—the friends doing likewise.
