Gov. Woodruff and Party to Inspect
 Lobster Hatchcries.
 Governor Woodruff With a party of personal friends will visit today the state lobster hatcherles at Noank Be- sides the governor. Senator Brandegee and Major Lyons and the state shell fish commissioners will be in the par ty. The state lobster hatcheries are more completely stocked with every size lobster this year than they have ever been before and on account of the fact that the supply is so plentiful this year and the Holsters of such va rious sizes the visit will no doubt be very interesting to the governor and his party. Every year the shell fish commissioners, the governor of the state and his personal friends make a visit 10 Noank to inspect the hatch cries which are owned by the state.
