Albert Daniels, a Meriden printer has committed suicide by a drink of carbolic acid, and his death recalls the fact that he learned the trade in tho old Star office in New London about forty years ago. He came to New London from Sag Harbor and lived in the family of c. Strong Holt in Tru- man street. doing chores for the fam fly for his board while he worked at the printing business for S2.50 week. He was a faithful and studious ap- prentice and at the end of his ap- premiership worked for a while in New London and then returned to his home in Sag Harbor. He went to Meriden over twenty-five years ago. where he was steadily employed. There are only two living today who worked in the Star office with Mir. Daniels. His aunt conducted a boarding house in Bank street in the house now owned and occupied by the Stoll Brothers.

In those days there was q standing advertisement of Boy wanted at the Evening Star office" and when the re- suit of the census was officially an- nounced the wit of The Norwich Bul-- letin had the temerity to state that David Scott Ruddock. editor and pro- prietor of the Star. had finally got thai boy and gave the city gain instead of a tie in the census.

Unless the remedy is applied before the frost qets deep into the ground,

Unless the remedy is applied before the frost gets deep into the ground, there will be need for increased ap- propriation for the care of the streets and gutters, and it will be demonstrate ed that it was not economy after all to dispense with the services of the deputy highway commissioner and dis charge of street laborers before the winter preparatory work on the streets was completed. All over the city there is apparent neglect in the street de- partment, gutters are clogged and gull lies in the macadam roads are broad ening daily. and where cents could remedy defects now dollars will be needed later on, and it would he well for the present administration to act upon the old saw that stitch in time saves nine.

Unless Mayor Mahan gets busy and appoints that committee in behalf ef the court of common council and roE~ resenting the city of New London tn that Grand Trunk terminal matter, the opportunity may be lost. As the court of common council has taken hold of this project direct it is practically taken out of the hands of the semi official organizations known as the New London Board of Trade and the New London Business Mems association and citizens committee representing the city officially would certainly have more weight than committees from either of the organizations named. But something should be done and done at once or Providence may have the call for action has been taken already in the interests of that city.
 The Grand Trunk officials some time ago announced their desire to secure entrance into that city and the effort has received the endorsement of the executive committee of the Providence Board of Trade in the following reso- of the committee last Tuesday morn ing:
 'It having been reported in the public press that certain railroad interests are considering the advisability of at tempting to obtain an entrance into the city of Providence. recognizing the advantages that such an entrance would tend to bring to the shippers of Providence and adjoining territory. the president of the Board of Trade is hereby authorized to appoint a spe- cial committee of the board to investi- gate said matter and report the results of such findings to the executive coun- cil"
 The Providence action on the Grand nfrtfr. fa 4aaafa1 fv. "a The only hesitation shown was when the question was raised whether pub licity at this time would interfere with the progress Of negotiations. meaning presumably that the mayor of New London might catch on to what had been done and act accordingly and for the benefit of New London and 10 the detriment of Providence. It should be now a lively race as to which would first select the committee to interview the Grand Trunk people. the mayor of New London or the president of the Providence Board of Trade. But that little matter can be left safely with Mayor Bryan r. Mahan, who is being boomed by some Of the state papers as the democratic candidate for gov- ernor.
 And. say do you know that there arc people in the Nutmeg State who ac- tually believe that he can turn the same political trick fin the state that he did in New London. where he won over a strong republican candidate in decidedly strong republican city. where the majority is conceded to be at least six hundred on a straight party vote
