MAYOR SECURES TWENTY Fl. ROAD
 FOR NOTHING

As a result of Mayor Buckingham g appearance before the Railroad Com 1nissioners in Hartford yesterday. the Connecticut Go. will macadamize Bar mum avenue from Mill Hill avenue to the Stratford town line, 10 feet outside of it's rails This means 35 foot macadam roadway in place of the 16 foot road.
 The railroad company is not obliged to maintain more than two feet out side of its rails on each side. But in view of the fact that the company was getting a concession in the use of the highway and that the road would have to be wider on each side, the Mayor sought to have the. com pany agree to build 20 feet of ma cadam outside of it's rail to take the place of the 16 foot strip that was formerly maintained in the center of the street by the city. This was agreed upon and the railroad company will pay the entire cost.
 The town of Stratford will have a 39 foot roadway when the job is finished, but four feet will be paid for by the town, the Connecticut Co. acting as the contractor in doing the work.

POLICE BOARD WILL REMODEL
 HEADQUARTERS

Dissatisfied with the present ar rangement of offices in the police de- partment in the police and charities building, and especially with the cramped quarters into which the de- tective bureau is crowded, the board of police commissioners will soon make radical changes in the layout of the building.
 The commissioners expect to make use of the considerable space now given up to a sort of public recep- tion room, in front of the sergeant's s desk at police headquarters. The present layout gives Superintendent Birmingham the front office at the southeast corner of the building. Then in regular order come a recep- tion room, where Dog and Liquor Agent Wagner holds forth; the office of Clerk Smith, and then the detec- tive bureau.
 It is planned to give the detective bureau it's present room and that of the police clerk. The latter will occupy the reception room together with the dog and liquor agent, and the room will be made more private, possibly by closing the entrance from the corridor.
 To enter the office of Supt. Birm- ingham at present, one has to go through the room occupied by the dog and liquor agent. This will be obviated by cutting an entrance through from the hallway. The sergeant's desk, now running length wise of the building, will run cross wise, parallel with Fairfield avenue, and this will provide more room for the police telegraph system, the red light signal system, and the other ap- purtenances of the sergeant's desk.
 The commissioners are securing figures on the work, and~ plan to carry it out within few weeks. The growth of the detective department, which now includes a captain and four subordinates, has made the one little office entirely inadequate for its work and this more than anything else has led the commissioners to take the view that some better ar ranPem entS Should be made

II Is quite hopeless to trace out the
fathers Of smoking in general and to-
bacco smoking in particular. Who FIRST
drew in smoke OF any kind through a
pipe In England and who first OF our
countrymen took TO tobacco will al
ways remain disputable. 1t is equally
uncertain which western tribe made
the sublime discovery. There is even
dispute as to whether tobacco takes its
name from the island OF Tobago, from
the Yucatan province of Tobacco, from
Tabasco I'm Florida or from a y-shaped>
pipe which the people of Hlspaniola
smoked with their noses. Only one
name is definitely associated with the
great institution. that OF Jean Nicot,
the French ambassador to Portugal,
who spread the fame Of the herb
through Europe. And OF all who are
familiar with nicotine today how
many associate it with Nicot or have
even heard Of him!--London Chronicle.

WHY HANS

Wagner has not signed with the
All Nationals in the post-season series
with the American leaguers, because
lie has an understanding with Barney
Drefuss 10 the effect that he II
play with the Pltsburg club alone.
Wagner ~ paid $4,000 a season by
the Pittsburg management and Drey-
fuss thlnrs that entities the Pittsburg
club to Nagners services exclusively.
Hans il the big drawing card Of
the Pira@e club and Drefuss thinks
he should be drawing card for no
one else. Wagner is permitted to play in
few exhibition games, If any, because
Pittsburg club does not care TO take
any chances Of his being injured eX-
cept in the Pirate service.
Joe Tinker, or AL Bridwell will play
shortstop Tor the All National team
ingston and Ed Wilbern, the promo
ters of me scheme, will continue to
dicker with Wagner with the hope
of landing him.
The fans of every big city will be
given an opportunity to see all the
star PLAYERS perform in every game
Three pitchers, working three innings
each, will perform for each team in
every game and the men will get
into the lineup daily.
IL is not likely that the games VIII
be slug tests, Notwithstanding the
fact that all the best batsmcn in the
Major eague have been signed to
play The swatters will be opposed
by the best pitching talent in fast
company and they are bound to cause
the batsmcn quite bit Of trouble
The best runners in the two leagues
are also included in the lineup, but
they will have their troubles stealing
against the star catchers Of the two
organizations. .ru
