 There was meeting of the board of park commissioners on Thursday noon, at which time few matters out of the routine were taken up.
 It was decided that there should be a policeman in the park on holidays, Saturdays and Sundays, those being the days when the largest crowds are there, and it is necessary that order be maintained there. This will be car- ried out at once, being applicable to the summer season, and it will prob- ably be one of the supernumeraries who will be put on that work.
 The work of building the entrance into the park from Washington street will not be started at once. but esti- mates are being asked for a road west of the first one built, which will leave the road near the lake, going west along the boundary and coming back to the road again near where the Greeneville road joins the main road.

AT CRESCENT BEACH.
Names of Cottages to Be Posted and
 Streets Named

Streets Named.
 Tuesday afternoon the Ladies' aux Hilary of the Crescent Beach Pier asso- citation held the first meeting of the season. It was determined to give a cake and candy sale at Mrs. Ed Row ley's cottage the latter half of next week and to give an ice cream sale and graphophone concert on Mrs. Samuels lawn about the first of August. The following officers were elected: Presi- dent, Mrs. Mary Samuels of Hartford; vice president, Mrs. Senft of Norwich; secretary, Mrs. Allen of Middletown; treasurer, Mrs. Horniss of Hartford.
 A meeting of the Crescent Beach Pier and Improvement association was held Wednesday afternoon in Colonel Tyler's casino. Although no more than a score of the cottagers were present, yet several matters of importance to the beach were discussed and voted upon.
 Edward Rowley. the treasurer re- ported that during the past year $268.72 had been collected. A large amount of this had been expended for printing and labor on the beach to remove an old scow which had been driven upon the beach during a storm, but there is still in the treasury $71.S3. Avote of thanks was given MT. Coroley, who of fered to light the pier lamps gratu- iously during the present season.
 Discussion took place as to whether the names of the various streets should be posted and whether the houses should be numbered The majority were convinced that numbers looked too citified and thought rather that names should be posted on all the cot tages. But it was determined to place uniform signboards on all the street corners.
 Last years officers were unanimous ly reelected as follows: President, J. Samuels of Hartford; secretary, L. H. Scranton of Hartford. The officers were given power to appoint an exec utive committee and they placed the following men upon the list: A. P. Carroll Ward. Farrell, Bacon and Pecks. Messrs Bacon, Hedges and Farrell were appointed an auditing committee.

March to Steamboat Dock and Leave on the Block Island for Watch Hill.

Having assembled at the armory early Thursday morning the members of the Third and Fifth companies, c. A.
