A Card.

A
 To the gentlemen of the New Haven Steam boat company the managers of the New Haven orphan asylum would make their grateful acknowledgements for the excursion on the Elm City generously given to-day to those connected with this institution. Many years before the Fresh Air mission was insugurated in this country noble and gen. erous impulse inspired the mind and moved the heart of your senior captain to take the asylum children out for day on the water. Summer after summer this invitation has been given by Captain Richard Peck and thankfully accepted. We believe it has been pleasu e to be his coadjutors in this good work of giving a.day of innocent and health full recreation to a family who are closely confined to the routine of home life.
 To-day, as before, entrusted to your care unhesitatingly the lives of all the fami- ly, confident that naught that human skill and thought could do for their safety and comfort would be left undone.
 To MT. E. s. Barber, who had the excur- sion in charge and anticipated our every want, we extend our thanks, as also to his able assistants. We trust they felt fully re- paid for all their trouble by the evident hap piness, not only of the children, but of all on board.
 In behalf of the board of managers,
 ELIZA K. TwIN1NG Rec. Secretary.

AT POT ISLAND.
The Annual Reunion of The Twenty
 Seventh c. V. To-Day.


 Seventh c. V. To-Day.
 Members of the Twenty seventh c. V. participating in the reunion at Pot Island to- day, should bear in mind that the comrades assemble at Belle dock instead of at the green as formerly. The committee deemed this the better plan, in view of the large number of ladies who attend the Twenty seventh reunion. The regiment being essen tially local one, draws perhaps larger at tendance from New Haven than any other. At 9:30 sharp the Ivernia will leave for the island. After the business meeting is through the steamer is to make trip among the Thimble Islands for the benefit of the ladies and other guests. The history of the Twenty seventh regiment monument and the dedica- tion ceremonies at Gettysburg, is expected to be delivered to the comrades to-day. Not only the members of the regiment, but each contributor to the fund and every member of the active and Veteran Grays, is to re- ceive a copy of the book free.

The position of doorman is considered quite good one, and only old and reliable officers who have served many weary years of duty on the street, get there. Officer Luby, of the precinct, has served the force of the city with faithfulness for nearly twenty years. He nearly lost his life by falling under horse car years ago in going to his duty. He was laid up for many months. He fills his position as doorman, as well as assignments when on the regular force in 6 careful and trustworthy manner The officers of the forcs whose date of service date back num- Der of years are Thomas Kennedy, George F. Selleck, Edgar Phelps, William H. Nichols, James W: Walters, Thomas McCarthy, James Cook, Thomas Hackett, Charles E. Stokes, MosBs Greenbaum
 The question of having a number of new men appointed to the outlying districts is now being agitated among the commission | CTS. The city has grown rapidly the past few years, and Chief Bollman finds himself greatly
 hindered by his lack of regular officers. There
 are half dozen supernumaries who are ap- pointed to fill the vacancies. The building
 of the precinct on Grand avenue opened up
 new era in the police force. The precinct
 had been badly needed for some years and it l is now running successfully. The police
 wagons at the precinct and at the headduar- ters help the force materially. It will not l be long before there is another precinct built
 either in the vicinity of the hospital hill or
 or nearer the Union depot. The new police signal stations which have been introduced
 here have materially aided the force.
