 Frank Duffy, Patrick Doolan Lewis Picquignot, Jeremiah Mahan-
 ey. Michael Crowley. John Sullivan,
 John O'Brien, William Bolger and John Martin, who are camping al
 Bantam lake, are certainly not hav- ing very fine weather, especially dur ing the night time. Saturday night
 was very rainy, and 1t was anything
 but pleasant for the fellows accus- toned to their nice soft beds to sleep on the ground with only few blan-
 kets over them. Sunday night 1t rained also, but the tent had been pitched by that time and it was not as bad as the night before. Pluvius held forth once more last night and the fellows must be tired of the camp by tbis time. It was the in- tention of the party to call the camp Camp Bolger," but has christened it Camp, Rainy Weather"
 Edward Ray left to-day for a vacation to be spent in Litchfield.
 Edward Dunphy of North Riv- erside street will leave for Camp Bolger tonight to spend the Fourth with the other Brooklynites who are camping at Bantam.
 The members of, the H. G. L.. whist club who are sojourning at Morris are making hit with the na- tives and are having the time of their lives. This evening they will give an entertainment at Morris and almost all the Waterbury people who are visiting in the vicinity have been invited to attend.
 There is nothing unusual slated to be pulled of in Brooklyn to-mor- row. There are no ball games of any account scheduled, although there are likely to be several scrub games down at Riverside park. Many of the residents have decided to spend the day out of town and this part of the city except for few hours in the morning will undoubt- edly be quiet during the day.
 While in Brooklyn Sunday af- ternoon I saw forty drunks pass" was the amazing statement made yes- terday by a person connected with the local police department. AL though this at first would seem an exaggerated statement 1t can hard ly be said to be so, as on Sunday in. Brooklyn there is probably more in- toxicating liquor and beer sold than any other section of the city. Booze" may not be the cause of all the fights which have occurred recently in Brooklyn but if an investigation were made. it would be found that fire water could be placed at the bot tom of many of the brawls which are fast giving this side. of the city a blackeye and make 1t less de- sirable residential section. The beer and liquor that is sold in Brooklyn on the first day of the week are not sold from the saloons; 1t is purchas- ed from tenement houses which are loaded up with the stuff the night before. The homes of some of the people in Brooklyn on Sunday are nothing more or less than bar rooms. There is one shack which is dis grace to this side and the stuff flows very freely there every Sunday. In front of one house on many Monday several beer kegs have been seen. the contents of which were probably disposed of on the previous day. As long as there is such an open violation of the law on Sunday, there will always be, disor- der and the sooner the police realize this the better. The lid is certainly of in Brooklyn but for the good of the taxpayers and residents who in- tend to stay here for some years to come, 1t should be on.
 Paris Green should all be alike, but it is not-it simply looks alike. We handle a brand that we can rec ommend to tobacco growers as hav- ing the highest killing power. It will go farther and do more than the brands of uncertain strength. A. c. 756 Bank street.
