An announcement of unusua! interest to all men in this vicinity who have | served a term of enlistment in the Na- tional Guard of Cornecticut was re- ceived here Sunday morning by Cap- tain B, L. Darbie of the Thirteenth company. The announcement is con- | tained in a general order issued from ford, and by it a reserve list for the C. N. G. is established and @pproved as follows: Officers on the active list of the C. N. G., with over ten years' enlisted and commissioned service may, upon their own application, with the ‘approval of the adjutant general, be transferred to a reserve list. Officers on the reserve list will be subject to active duty only in event of war or other: emergency, angd in sucl event may be called upon for active service by the governor. ‘When so called upon for active ser- vice, or actually serving with troops, they shall receive the same pay and allowaamces as officers on the active 1ist. Officers on the reserve list may, up- on application and with the adjutant general's approval, be transferred to the active list. They may be required to pursue such studies, with the inci- dental examinations as shall keep them abreast of their profession, as di- rected by the adjutant general, After an enlisted man has served a full term of three years in one enlist- ment in the C. N.'G., and been -hon- orably discharged, and does not desire to continue in active service~ he may enlist for a period of three vears in the reserve. Frlisted men in the re- serve will be required to hold them- selves in readiness to return to their organizations in event of war, or other emergency, upon the call of the gov- ernor. Upon reporting in response to such call, they shall thereafter receive pay and allowances the same as other en iisted men. Men in the reserves may volunteer to serve their commands during maneuver and field exercises and upon the approval of their imme- diate commanding officers, and the ad- jutant general, they may be ordered for such duty,and will recoive the same pay as privates of the active com- mand. Under the new proposition, which is patterned after that of some European nations, about 100 men in Danielson and vicinity will be eligible for_enlist- ment. Captain Darbie sail Sunday cation for the necessary rosters and cation for the necescsry rosters and enlistment papers, and at once begin the work of enlistment for reserves, all of which will be in the grade of private. Nearly all men entitled to enlist as reserves who were seen Sun- day were very favorably impressed with the plan. Enlisted as reserves, they will have no drills to attend or field service to do, though they may if they wish, but they will be supplied with uniform and arms as is done with men in the active list. With the men in the active list in Danielson, all of those eligible for re- serve service if enlisted would give Danielson two military companies, which would make a fine' showing for the town cn occasion of parades and such functions. Captain A. P. Woodward, O. O., now on the retired list, is eligible for ser- vice in the reserve jist and Captain K. L. Darbie will be on April 15. OBITUARY. William C. Keach.

Telephone Alarm Recommended. Recent experiences in Danielson rel- ative to the pulling in of box alarms for chimney fires, or intent to do so, has led to the suggestion from the de- partment workers that in many cases a telepone call to the chief is a better way to give notification for this kind of fire. As a general rule, the tele- phone alarm is equally effective as a box alarm. though there may be ex- ceptions, and the borough is saved coneigerable money by not Laving all of the companies respond wher only a few men are needed.

Then there were three men for a vear or more. A gre; many property owners have expressed the opinion that not only should the policemen be paid $2.25, but_that thers should be two men on duty every night. The fact is advanced t burglars, incendiaries or crimi of. any sort planning fo commit crime in the borough have no difficulty 'in evading the single officer on duty, be he ever so vigilant. That such is i case is substantiated in the evidence in the recent postoffice burglary, when Officer Driscoll was shot. The ‘crooks knew where he was and waited for him to come up School street. Had he an associate officer, signals could have been exchanged, different meth- ods adopted and the deplorable result might have been averted. Surprised on Birthday.
