Bartlett high of Webster, Mass, looked like anything but champlons Friday afternoon on Racreation park, ‘when the Windham boys showed them up to the tune of 14 to 5, every one of Bartlett’'s runs being the result of presents. The score was 12 to 0 in the seventh, and Windham let up in their efforts, making four errors and letting in as many tallies. Only four hits were made off Morrison, who de- served a shut-out. Riley was the star with the bat, getting three hits out of flve times 1p, and scoring four runs, Bartlett is playing for the champlon- ship against Stonington today, and will have to brace up a whole lot to even have a look-in. But then, Wind- ham is going some now, and for the first_baseball team turned out at W. H. S. for years, is a great success. This was their last game, and only three members are lost by graduation, Hoxle, Harroun and@ Morrison, so the outlook for next season is bright.

NEW LONDON'S TRAFFIC CONDITIONS Public Safety Demands Jitney Regulation and More Police —Needed Attention Given to Streets—Value of Lung Motor—Harbor School Not Large Enough. The customary summer increase in vehicular traffic is more than trebled by the practically unregulated jitney service and, as a natural result, there is public demand for an increase in the trafiic force of the police depart- ment in the intrests of public-safety and for the extension of tour of duty of the traffic officers well into the night. There s urgent need for ad- ditional police traffic direction at State and Main streets, Bank and Howard and the junction of Bank, Truman and Shaw streets and Mon- tauk avenue, as well as at Bank and State streets. These points are fully as dangerous as the railroad crossing at the foot of State street where two crossing tenders are on duty to safe- guard the public and at the expense of the railroad company. As the jit- neys have made this extra police pre- caution necessary it has been sug- gested that the jitney men come to the front end center and make good the expenses of safeguarding at the points here mentioned, either by di- Tect contribution or indirect taxation. A traffic officer, or two, is also need- ed at tie trolley terminal in State street, which has been selected as the rendezvous of the jitneys. The con- gested condition not only interferes with general traffic but is a menace to life and limb of those who get on and oft the trolley ca: _ For the benefit of the officers of the firo department, Dr. Harry M. Lee gave a demonstration of the lung- motor recently purchased by the X agara company at the company fire house, and incidentally told of the saving of four newly-born babes by this life-saving device, that can be operated by anyone and without dan- ger to the Individual suffering from suffocation of any kind, either from smoke, gas, drowning or electric shock. Dr. Lee explained in _detail the working of the device and demon- strated how the device should be used in the varied instances of suffocation. At the conclusion of Dr. Lee's talk, oremen Brown, of the Niagaras, stated that the lungmotor would be carried on tae fire apparatus, and was for the free use of the physicians, the police officers or for anyone else in | emergency cases, and also stated that the lungmotor would be delivered with despatch in any part of the city in response to call. Dr. Lee stated that in cases of elec- tric shock, where the voltage was not severe enough to burst the insides and tear the heart, that prompt of the lungmotor wuld save life. W1 in a week a younng carpenter work- ing upon the roof of a house near the where a person is evidently dead re- two electric iight wires and was elec- trocuted. It is said that the young man_breathed for a short period af- ter he reached the ground, thus in- dicating that his vitals had not been torn asunder. In such an event Dr. Lee said successful use could be made of the lungmotor. Even in cases where a person is evidently dead re suscitation has been effected by the use of this simple and effective life- saving device. He cited a case where a man had been submerged in water for half an hour, the body recovered, and life restored by the use of the lungmotor. The street department has finally actually located Darrow and Orchard streets, two of the principal routes leading to the trolley line from Ocean avenue and beyond, for this week these streets have been sprinkled with dust-laying oil, and the residents thereof appreciate the unusual atten- tion. Now they begin to think that these streets are really @ part of the general street system and that they will be given the same attention in public improvements that is given in return for taxes in other sections of the city of I er importance. The oiling of the streets is taken as an en- tering wedge for increased improve- ment to the roadbed, and in due time, perhaps, the laying of sidewalks will be given some consideration. There is but one vacant building lot in Or- chard street d some of the best two tenement dwelling houses in the city are in Darrow street, and both streets are practically without sidewalks, New London is noted for its fine sidewalks, there being some forty of ‘granolithic sidewalks 1laid within the past three years, but these two streets seem to have been among those that have been neglected in this respect. Now that they have been located by the municipal man- agement, prospects are fair for at- tention in the not to far away fu- ture. When that Harbor school building was erected less than ten years at a cost of $100,000, mainly through the efforts of Captain Thomas A. Scott, then an alderman from the Fifth ward, it was argued that the large and handsome building was all too large for the eection and that one-half the size and cost would serve the pur- pose for the next half-century, at least. These objectors didn't know the district as Captain Scott knew it. He persisteq in the plan for the pres- ent schoolhouse and he won out. Now the captain is justified in exclalming: “I told you so.” The board of school visitors have already made declara- tion that the large building is inade- quate for the use of the district and that another school building is abso- lutely necessary to accommodate the children of school age in that section. Like conditions prevail in all the schools of the town and it will not be many years before there will be ma- teria] “increase in the number of schoolhouses. Still there are some old fogies about the city who are forever saying that New London has been at a standstill ever since the “good old Wwhaling times!” In those good old times the populous part of the city extended from the town mill to Tru- man's brook, and there were a dozen more places in what is now populous sections big enough to accommodate the greatest show on earth, while now in the whole city limits there is not & lot large encugh to accommodate a small-sized circus. That's a reason Why the big cne's give New London a wide Derth. The best evidence of the growth of the city is the large in- Grease in the number of echool chil- ren. Neow_London showed full apprecia- tion of the visit of the ancient Put- nam Phalanx which is composed of representative men from all sections of the state but mainly from the city of Hartford who are desirous of per- petuating the name of the illustrious Israel Putnam and the patriotic de- votion to country that prevailed in earlier days of this united country. In honor of the visitation of the Phal- anx the whole city was generously decorated with the flag that Putnam and heroes of his type nailed to the national masthead to remain there forever. The old-time independent military organization was welcomed immediately upon arrival by the chief ‘magistrate of the city, with the ald- érmen and representatives of local patriotic organizations and everything possible was done to make the visit Pleasurable. They were given the full freedom of the city and every man of them seemed to enjoy every minute while awake of the two days stay. The late Dr. David P. Francis was perhaps the first New Londoner to join the organization and he became an officer and was an interested mem- ber until he died. Later on other New Londoners became members of the Putnam Phalanx, including the late Mayor Cyrus G. Beckwith, who was one of the front rank men and rarely missed participating in the parades of the honorable organiza- tion, as it is a conceded honor to be enrolled in the membership. The uniform and the drill is not of the new fangled type. but serves as a remind- er of the military spirit form only like patriotic moti being retained by the modern military organizations. It was regretted that the Putnam Phalanx could not have remained in New London for another day and marched with the entire coast de- fense military of the state of Connec- ticut, upon its return from a tour of duty at the island forts, where they have been for the past ten days liv- ing and working as soldiers of the regular army for preparation, should the occasion come, to give as patriotic account of themselves as did the gen- eral for whom the Putnam Phalanx is named. With the Putnam in it, the parade would be a clear demonstra- tion of the soldiers in readiness for duty upon call, fully armed and equip- ped, and the type of soldier of the oldeén-times in = full dress uniform, long after the fighting days had pass- ed and the warring uniforms discard- ed. Saturday afternoon’s parade will give the people a good idea of the fine body of ~well-drilled and disciplined men that form the coast defence branch of the military service of the state, fully competent to act as artil- lerymen or infantry men. Such as these give confidence to their fellow citizens that the state of Connecticut is doing its part to defend the na- tion, as well as state, in the event of war. Never in the history of the state has the military service been as efficient as at the present time, and is well that employers througout the state guard by permitting those in their employ to participate in the an- nual tour of duty and are encourag- ing enlistment among their employes. New London, and the whole state, is proud of the Putnam Phalanx and the Connecticut National Guard, too. losifii - n-a Committee, Dr. W. M. Hill; treasurer, William Ashbey; clerk, John Ebbetts.
