ROYAL ARCANUM AFFAIRS NOT SO DESPERATE Supreme Representatives’ Report Is of An Encouraging Nature. From the following extract from the report of the supreme representatives the situation in the the Royal Arca- num, it seems, is not nearly so des- perate ag it would appear from the previously printed report of the in- surance commissioners of Massachu- setts and Connecticut: There were initiated and reinstated during 1912, 16,189 members. New members admitted between ages of 18 and 21 years, from May 25 1912, to April 20, 1913, 2126. Durlng 1912 there were 3.650 deaths and 11,113 sus- pensions.. Total amount ' charged against benefit certificates from 1905 to Dec. 31, 1912, $4,144,696.56. Average age of mepbers admitted in 1912, 2§.% years. Average age of present entire membership, 45.51 vears. Under the provisions of the Mobile bill, which has already been adopted by 16 states of the union, is a requirement ihat such states shall call for a valuation of the certificates providing for death ben- efits being ih force December 31st last preceding. In pursuance of these re- quirements, our actuary, W. F. Bar- nard, of Syracuse, N. Y., has completed his valuation of our certificates, and presented same to the Massachusetts insurance department, which has ver- ified it by comparison with its own valuation independently made. ~Such solvency is shown to be $8.26 per cent. As the highest percentage of solvency contemplated for fraternal societies by is 90 per cent., it is thus highly gratifying to note the very close proximity to the maximum the Royal Arcanum benefit certificates show. There is much in this to feel ustly pjroud of .

It was only a mo- mentary eruption, though, and noth- ing more serious than a shattered win- dow was the result of the bullets that were flying in the Occum atmosphere. As an aftermath, however, Constable Filliger appeared at the police head- quarters on Tuesday afterngon at 5 o'clock with a couple of doughty pris- omers under guard. These, who gave their names as John Toboski and An- drew Clabutz, were duly locked up and will_be presented in city court this morning for breach of the. peace and perhops other charges. The older man, Toboski, who has a record for acts that have been with- out the law, it is said, was the prin- cipal, while his younger companion disclaimed all knowledge of the shoot- ing up. Toboski had a case against his wife which came up before a Nor- wich justice on Monday afternoon and when all the witnesses for his side gave evidence that was very evidently not in his favor, he grew discouraged. He was still more respondent when, failing ta secure a bond of 15 his case was thrown out from lack of evidence. In the course of events he proceeded to steep -his sorrow in strong drink, with the result that when he returned to Occum village Monday night he was in a fighting mood.

He sald he shot twice, people around there said four or five times. No one went around to investigate the trouble, for no one had a flery desire at meeting a few more bullets at close range. When Tuesday morning came, the vil- lagers flocked to the mill and Tobock] and Clabutz also reported for duty. But their fellow weavers in_the Toto- kett mill were rather shy of the erst- while bad men and their immediate vicinity in the woveshot was deserted. 1t ended in their discharge by the com- pany in order to get the other oper- atives back to thelr looms in security.

Gardensr for Mrs. Ripley Was Last Seen in Waterford Headed for East Lyme, Henry C. Zimmerman, gardener for Mrs, nnah L. Ripley at her home, No. 177 Broadway, has been missing from this city since Sunday afternoon and when last seen was in Waterford headed for East Lyme. That was early on Monday and since then the departed gardener has not been seen, the Norwich police have notified the New London authorities, and people who know Mr. Zimmerman have aided in the search. 3 On Sunday Mr. Zimmerman, who is a man over §0 years of age, called on friends on Asylum street in this city and soon after noon left, ostensibly to return to his home on Broadway. sut he did not return, and nothing was heard from him, and his wife became much worried and the police were noti- fied of his disappearance. He had had the custom of going to Waterford to the home of William Wright, by whose father Mr. Zimmerman _had been brought home on his farm. Mr. Wright told Captain Twomey, who was acting as chief Tuesday, owing to the indis position of Chief Linton, that a man bad come to the old Wright homestead, which is next to Mr. Wright's home and is now occupied by the Stewart family, and had been found there in a shed by one of the family. It was at that homestead that Mr. Zimmerman father. He was directed to the home of Mr. Wright, but he did not go there, Monday morning as Mr, Wright was getting ready to go out to do his milk- ing he saw a man standing in the yard but when he got outside this person had walked up the road and was striking out in the direction of Fast Lyme. The mhan answered to the de- scription of Mr. Zimmerman, although Mr. Wright did not get close enough to him to_speak to him. Mr. Wright was going to drive to Black Point on Tuesday on business, and along the ten miles of this trip he told Captain Twomey that he would inquire after Mr. Zimmerman. No news was received by the police Tues- day night and it is taken that Mr Wright's éfforts were unsuccesswul. 1t is believed that Mr. Zimmerman may be somewhat demented, as he has at various times of late shown signs of mental disturbance. and this may account for his strange departure. His wife and other relatives and friends are apprehensive for his welfare. He is a short stout man, about five feet nine inches in height, has mixed gray hair and a small grayish moustache. He wore a derby when he went away, but as to the Test of his clothing his people are uncertain. PRESCRIPTION NECESSARY EACH TIME. Norwich Druggists Find Provisions of New Drug Law Are Strict. The state has now devised an ac- curate method of keeping track of the amount of drugs sold and should be able to detect persons who violate the law with comparative ease. The new druggists a few weeks ago, is very | strict, and provides thal no person | shall sell. furnish or give away, ex- cept to a licensed physician, pharma- cist, dentist or veterinarian, any drug in quantities of more than one-half grain, unless on a prescription of a licensed physician. And no person is allowed to gell drugs to these men unless they receive a written order, which must be retained by the seller {and nled. All persons making sales, except druggists, must report to the commissioners of pharmacy once a month. While the law gives the doc- tors a great latitude in prescribing. it provides that no person other than a physician, dentist. jobber, . wholesaler, manufacturer or pharmacist shall have more than five grains in his possession at _any one’time. Under the new law, when a doctor or a druggist buys drugs in quantities he must fill out a specially prepared order blank which is to be kept and sent to the state pharmacy board.
