Coroners Inuuests.

The Judiciary committee .have prepared 8 bill radically changing the whole coroner sys tenn in the State. Two bills were introduced being substantially the law which has worked very successfully in Massachusetts, and the other bill drawn by Coroner Bollman of this city, based mainly upon the New Haven method. But the committee have set aside both these measures, and will report bill of their own, very carefully drafted, after con- ference with State attorneys and acknowl edged medical authorities
 It is proposed that each town and city shall be provided with medical adviser, who shall take the preliminary view of the body, and, if he has reason to suspect violence, summon the coroner if not, he is to send This official is to be appointed by the county coroner, and he must be physician of good standing.
 The county coroner must be lawyer ac- quainted with medical jurisprudence, and he is to be appointed by the Superior court judges upon recommendation of the States attorney of the county in which he is to off, ciate.
 No salary is fixed and the fees remain much the same as at present. The bill pro vides, also, for the method of conducting examinations and autopsies
 The new law aims to save time and expense in making post mortem examinations, and to prevent the bungling delays too frequent in the country towns-as h the Jennie Cramer case for instance. It will also relieve the relatives and friends of a person meeting with sudden death from great many annoy anccs that cannot well be avoided under the present method.

Regular Army.

A few days ago we alluded to the appoint ment of our townsman, Lieutenant William B. Pease, as adjutant of the Ninth Infantry, United States army. Since that time, as we see by the Army and Navy Journal of April 7, Lieutenant Pease has received his promo ton to captaincy in the Ninth regiment, with which he has been connected as first lieutenant for twelve or fifteen years. Cap tain Pease's service has, since the close of the war, mainly been on the western plains. At different times he has been located at Forts Omaha, Sidney, Robinson, Mckinney, D. A. Russell and perhaps others. His pres. ent post is Fort D. A. Russell, the Leadquai- ters Of the Ninth regiment, near Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory. It is with pleasure we chronicle his advancement, and the more as he is an officer of sterling qualities and un- doubted efficiency, as well as worthy repfe- sentative of our city in the army of the Union.

At Miss M. FL. s. syrnes'.

One of the most attractive scenes afforded in connection with the advancing of spring is the display at Miss M. E. J. Byrnes' well known fashionable center of millinery on Orange street. The windows are decked beautifully with arti ifcial flowers and are but an intimation of what the commodious and handsome store shows within. No former display by this lady equals the present. In all it's features it takes the first rank, vieing with the metropolis, and no wonder there was an increasing tide of ladies of the first social circles and patrons in general to profit by the beautiful hats and bonnets which greet the eye, formed and fashioned and trimmed with Q degree of taste and excellence which makes the establishment so highly popular. The epitome of the best things in the fashions of the season which is there seen turn very large amount of trade to the store, and the ladies find that no mat ter how arduous the task of fitting selec- tion may be. the difficulty vanishes in view ing the selection and consulting the supplies of the house and its fine taste, a requisite which selves the problem of dress most ad pairably. The throngs yesterday viewing and charming display seemed a fit accompani- msnt to the birds of spring time and the opening buds Many ladies from out of town were among the visitors, and there were lovely hats and pretty faces to match. All ages find the display has something specially fitting to their case, and there is much to study in the ever changing telescope of fashion in this special display, so va ried, ex- tensiye and beautiful

Connecticut Odd Fe11oMship.

Work of the Eneampment Last Year.
 The statistics of the encampment branch, Connecticut Odd Fellows, have been com pleted for 1882, and indicate gratifying success in the order during the year. The total membership at the close of 1881 in the twenty-oue encampments was 1851. Dur ing the past year 168 new members have been initiated, one received by card and nine reinststed. Twenty-one have withdrawn, fifty have been suspended, one expelled and fourteen have died, leaving the present act- i've membership at 1,942, making net gain of 91 members during the winter months. The number of pstriarchs relieved during the year was 133 and one widowed family. The aMsunt paid in relief measures was $2, 456s being distributed as follows: Pa triarehs, $2,l63; widowed families, $15, burying the dead $27O, special relief BIO. The amount of receipts for the year was $7,512.35.. The State encampment is in good condition financially and otherwise, and the subordinate encanpments throughout the State are doing well, adding to the mem.
