Wednesday, the attendance promises TO be largely
increased, showing the growth of the city materially
There will be few changes In the teachers OF the district
schools and none at all in the faculty OF the High
School Many Of the school buildings have been added
TO and in the Second North District large new build
ing has been erected but it will not be ready for use

the district it's various grades being in different bus
ness blocks When the school gets together again IL
will have all the modern convenences in q building
which is practically hreproof and designed TO accom-
modate the needs of the district for many years.
The sensation of the week In this vicinity is the
murder of the Bushenhagens, Of Bloomfield. few
miles north of the city, by tramp. The couple were
an unoffending old and man. and the crime was
one of the most dastardly recorded In this immediate
vicinity. Louis Lauer, o vagabond and criminal, we'll
known In this section, is under arrest for the crime
and there many circumstances which point to him
as the murderer. At the same time the authorities
taking steps to investigate all suspicious ndivduals
who have been seen about Bloomfield recently. This
murder brings out the fact that the Tramp Law. which
passed shortly after the murder OF two old women

and the tramp nuisance is bad as ever Public
sentiment aroused the matter Just now and Con-
travelling beggars again.
The state Senate will come together again next
Monday but no one pretends to know what IL VIII do
Since it last met. DR.. Alsop, who was sworn In as
Lieutenant Governor by the body has died and there
will be resolutions to his memory passed. without
doubt but the Republican members VIII not vote for
any resolutions of respect which include the title OF
Lieutenant Governor" although DR.. Alsop was man
who had more personal friends in the Republican party
than in the Democratic party, without DOUBT lie was
one of those peculiarly misplaced men, politically,
whose antecedents were Democratic and whose as
socates were Republicans. The Democratic Senators
will undoubtedly attempt method Of punishment
by resolution of Governor Buckley for his discharSe

him in command of the brigade, but Just how they

Governor Bukeey's name by title without "recogniz-

NAV be possible that the Senate will take action
which NAV indicate the course Of the Democrats when
the hAI Legislature meets in November, but there
Mt present no indications In that direction. It VIII
meet and adjourn and that Is about the extent Of the
outlook, at present
All things are running smoothly possible over
at the Capitol considering the troubles of the year.
There are no new complications
II the Legislature should ever get to work the
question Of Congressional apportionment will be con-
sdcred and it is likely that the present arrangement,
which has been so long In operation will be somewhat
disturbed The I'D District will lose MIddlesex County
without doubt and the transfer will be made TO the
lid Congressman Russells district This will have
n tendency TO make each district stronger politically
than II Is nowthat is the I'D would be stronger Demo-
cratic and the lid stronger Republican.

the Connecticut Valley for years. The acreage Is

crop Is already in the Sheds but yet remains un-

new system Of curing by steam heat has been tried
