K. OF P. Picnic.

The annual picnic of the local lodge
knighs af Pythias was given yester-
day at the Big Lake. The occasion was
one of the most delightful ever given at
this favorlte resort and there was moth
ing lacking to make the day a pleasant
one. Though the local passenger agent,
Lawrence Mclean, the Frisco was in
duced to run a special train to accomo-
date the crowd. Two trains in the
morning carried the crowd over, and
three trips in the afternoon were made
to accommodate those who desired to re-
turn early or late.
Just before the dinner, Hon. Geo. T.
Mitchell, made a short address, having
been invited to make the speech of
the day. He spoke but a short time,
but paid a glowing tribute to the fra
ternIty and praised the benevolent
work that has characterized the order
since its organization. His speech
was greatly enjoyed by everyone
present.
The dinner was all that a dinner
could be and to say that it was relishec
but feebly expressed the appetites OF
the crowd. The meats ,barbecued by
Mr.. Strauss were delicious and the fish
were cooked to please the taste of the
greatest epipure. The baskets furnish.
ed by theladies contained everything
to make the repast complete.
Prof. Biagi's band was on hand anC
furnished fine music.

SO far along that it was impos-

hours old when he arrived and
so many people had been upon

1t is evident that the fire was 0 f

The origin should be fully inves-

Tuberculosis of Kidneys Taking the Life of Young Celestial

Al the New Haven hospital in a very critical condition lies Tateh Clarence Chen of Shanghai China.

He became III some time ago subsequently, resulted in his removal to the New Haven hospital, where 1t was found that his organs were in a very serious condition. Both of the kidneys were found to be diseased and al the hospital an operation was performed several days ago in which one kidney was removed It is feared by the hos pital authorities that the other kidney is also beyond hope and the case is such critical one that the recovery of the patient would be considered Q remarkable one.
 On account of the fact that all hope has been given up of the young mans recovery word has been sent to the Chinese legation in Washington notify ing them of the condition of the young Chinamau Chen is g years of age and has resided this year at 25 High street

ALDERMEN MEET TONIGHT
Mccarthy Enrolment Pay Up for
 Final Action.

The special meeting of the board of aldermen which was voted al the last regular session last week will be held this evening \ number of matters which came up for first readings at that session will be up tonight for fr- al action. Among these probably the most inpor,ant will be the favorable report of the committee on the pay ment of George Mccarthy for his ser vices as military enrolling officer for the year 1907 This had its first read ing last week and will come up for fin al action tonight The sentiment of the board seems to be to pass the bill and leave 1t to the mayor and board of finance to take final action.
 As the ordinance committee has held no meeting during the past week none of the ordinance will be up for further action at this session The report of the special committee on voting machines Is also likely to be postponed as the committee has set about the task of getting statistics and has not complete cd that work yet. A number of mat tcrs will probably be finally settled to- night, however.

AFTER STATE COPS
Movement on Foot to Have Their Offices Abolished at
 Next Legislature.
WASTING STATES MONEY
Opponents Say They Arc Doing Work That Should Be Done by
 Towns.

A movement has been already started about the state to have introduced at the next session of the general assem- bly, resolution doing awny with the state police. The movement has for it's foundation the claim that the work the police are doing. which consists prin- cipally of gaining evidence of liquor violations should and could be done by the police of the several cities and towns. The paying by the state of men to do the work of cities and boroughs is claimed to be d waste of public money.
 The state police was authorized by the legislature of 1903, primarily with the intent, so 1t was stated, of doing away with the activity of the Law and Order league. It did all right. but those who were interested in getting rid of the league now seem 10 think that they simply jumped out of the frying pan Into the fire and that all they succeed ed in doing was the creation of good salaried offices The police come direct ly under the jurisdiction of the judges of the high courts who appoint com missioners who in their turn pick a superintendent and an assistant. These two latter are Thomas F. Eagan of Southlngton, who gets a salary of S3,- GOO, and Arthur L. Story of Norwich, who gets 5000, They In their turn ap- point policemen, who are paid $4 a day. The terms of the superintendents ma. ture on July 20, 1909 and 1t is planned Go make them the last
 So warm has the effort to abolish tho offices become that it Is stated by po- litcal leaders on both sides that 1t will be made an issue of the coming state campaign. Democrats, so says one of them, will put "a plank to that effect in their platform if the republicans don't and one of the latter's leaders when told of 1t said they would go just as far as the democrats. Wth the pro hibitinist movement in full blast the antistate police movement will no doubt furnish one of the interesting things to be talked over next Novem- Der
