Mrs. W, Hughes of OId ol‘lrl. Co\‘enr!. Annie - Pearson, New London's postmaster, Bryan F. Mahan, was tendered a complimentary banguet at the Crocker house there Wednesday afternoon by postmasters of the Second congressional district whom he had recommended for ap- pointment during his term as repre- sentative. Covers were Jaid for more than 40, the diners including as guests State Attorney Homer S. Cummings of Stamford, Mayor Timothy C. Murphy of this city, Acting Mayor Alton T. Miner of New London, Tax Collector Archibald 8. Spalding and Corporation Counsel Joseph T Fenning of this city, Rev. David R. O'Donnell of Colchester and Deputy Internal Revenue Collector William H. Farrell of New London. The banquet was arfanged by~a committee of which Postmaster Gilman of Puinam was the chairman. Posts master Mahan was given an ovation as he took his place at the héad of the hall. Attorney Fanning acted as toast- master at thé post prandial exercise which were of & most interesting char- acter. In ‘acknowledging the introduction of the toastmaster, former Congresss man Mahan exressed his appreciation of the evidence of kindly feeling tow- ard him which was shown in the giving of the banquet. He then proceeded to arouse the entlitisiasm of his hearers by referring to Hon. Homer S. Ctm- mings as a logical candidate for Uit~ ed_States senator in 1916, Mr. Mahan pointed out Mr. Cum- mings’ 15 years of loyal service as a member of the democratic national committee, during which he had main- tained unswerving devotion to the ifi~ terests of the party. He added that he did not speak by the book, but he had gogd reason to believe that Mr. Cummings may be asked to aceept the democratic senatorial nomination at the convention next year. Prolonged applause greeted the announcement. In reply, Mr. Cummings thanked his hearers for their evident good wishes, bitt added that he felt it wae too early to give a matter of such import seri- ous consideration. He sald there wére personal and professional _ reasons which might deter him from taking such a step, and he believed that when the time camu it would be well for all interdsted to sit down together and consider what was best for all con- cerned. He spoke at length of the career of Postmaster Mahan, deelaring that in addition to,the numerous public offices which he had held, his services of the highest civic character had won him the love and affection of the people of the community, which he asserted was the greatest tiibute a man could be accorded. Attorney Cummings eulogized Presi« dent Wilson and the stand which he had taken in the hour of national emergency, asserting that his pride in fim was not alone that of a fellow democrat but even more that of an American citizen. Mr. Cummings de- scribed some of the things which the democratic administration had _ac- complished in its brief tenure of office. Those in attendance at the banquet included, in addition to those already named: Postmaster John P. Murphy of this oiyt, Editor E. A. Sullivan Danlelson, Postmaster G. H. Foley and Charles H. Foley of Mystic, Postmas- ter W. J. Thomas and W. J. Hall of Moodus, Postmaster John L, Bliot and L. K. Storer of Clinton, Postmaster Joseph F. Leahy of Stonington, Post- master D. C.

The Norwich Elks, with their gues bidden from other cities, Putnam, Dan- New London, Providence, W1 Westerly and New Haven, have chosen Lincoln park on Aug. 11th as the timeé and place for their annual frolic. 1t will be bigger, so says the committée in charge of the blow-out, than anything of an outdoor nature the lodge of Elks in this city has ever lone. Lincoln park is very nearly an ideal t fof the Miks and their doings. To 'hé cafs go every hour, on the quarter before the hotir. There is a rustic the- atre at the park, and near by is a ball ground, with regulation diamond,where at the Jast frolic the boys from Willi- mantic, at that_time the baby lodge, trimmeq Capt. Denny Hayes and_the Norwich_team in a game that New Lendon, Westerly, Putnam, Providence, New Haven and the other towns re- mémber. There will, of course, be a ball game this year, though the sub-committee on sports isn't quite ready to_announce who will play this time. Then, too, the greased pig race, won last Bert Lucas, will be on the list of sports. The cabaret show will, as usual, be all to the satisfaction. What happened on the stage last year was something hard to eclipse, but, once more, the 1915 frolic committee is an aggressive com- mittes and is expected to do things. 1ts members are Dennis J. Hayes, Jobn H. Wilson, John H. Carney, Thomas H. Crawfofd and Rutherford C. Plaut. They are hard at work and will show what they can do for the enjoyment of their friends this time. Last year the Elks' parade was re- viewed by four eastern Connecticut mayors, all brother Elks, and at least three of these are in office yet and are looked for this year. Something will be found for Brother-Mayor Timothy C. Murphy of Norwich, Brother-Mayor ny Dunn of Willimantic and Brother-Mayor Archie Macdonald of Putnam to do at this frolic. Postmaster Bryan F. Mahan, an ex-mayor, will be in the New London delegation, though Jast year detained by a state commit- tee meeting in Hartford. The New London brothers will miss the cheerful personality of Fred J. West this year. ‘The dinner, like that of all the pre- ceding frolics, is bound to prove worth eafing, not only by the Elks from the various cities, but by the friends they will, as on former occasions, be per- mitfed to invite. Tie arransements are already under way for another tug of war, like the one that proved so strenuous last year. of | Two rival cities will be picked for this and they will send their heaviest and strongest men. The band will play before dinner and after dinner, and with the music and the sports there ought to be several happy_hours for several hundred peo- ple. The committee will keep the pub- Bo postea’ through the newspapers as their plans proceed. Meantime they want the Elks of the seven cities to eat_moderately in order that on Aug. 11th they may show up with sharp ap- pétites for the good things to be pro- vided at Lincoln park.

Presumably evéfyons knows that the amendments made by the last general assembly took effect on May 20. These amendmeénts change the lia- Dbility of the émployer in many re- spects, principally as to details of specific injuries and as to medical ser- vices which are now unlimited instead ot being confined to 30 fl.lyl immedi- ately following the injury as was the case before May 0. Of the 36 companies organized to transact compensation insurance busi- ness in the state, only a very smail number in terms insute asainst the liability imposed upon the assured by the amendments to the law. Bvery person holding a compensation instir- ance policy ought to éxamine it and see Wheteher he is simply insured against liabilities as they existed under the act of 1913 or whether he 18 insured against his present lability. In régard to the mmuch discussed question of employers of less than five employes. the language of section 2 of the statute as it now stands should be carefully studied. A large number of persens employinig 1éss than five employes have taken out contracts of insurance because they desire to have their employes protected in case they are injured. In all such instances the employer should see to it that each of hig employes is notified as provided in section 3 that the employer has taken fnis insurance and that he has ac- cepted the provisions of-part B of the n ing numbers each year.
