LOCAL CHARITIES.
Meeting on Sunday Afternoon at Gen.
 traI Baptist Church.

Invitations have been sent out to the various mems classes and leagues of the churches for a meeting on Sunday afternoon at the Central Baptist church lecture room for a considera- tlon of the administration of local charities. This follows the action talk en at meeting on December 18th at Broadway church when at the invita- ton of the mems class of Broadway Sunday school nearly one hundred from the various mems classes and leagues assembled in the Broadway church at noon to listen to an address by Dr. E. H. Capen. He spoke upon the man. aSment of public charities in Japan and Connecticut. His remarks were most interesting and stimulating, the more so 1nasnuch as they were per tinent to some of the local problems.
 The mana cement of charities here is Of great concern to the taxpayers and contributors in other ways. Is the present system best adapted to the situation both as referring to the best interests of the poor and the taxpay- CTS or contributors is a question of importance, and in view of it it has on Sunday next, Jan g, at p. m. in the lecture room of the Central Bap- tist church. All others interested in this subject will be welcome.
 It is expected that after two or three brief statements of present and pros pective policies have been made there will be opportunity for discussion. Probably there could be no better time than the present for a full and frank expression of opinions on this always difficult subject

ELECTRIC FREIGHT ENGINE
First of Two Ordered DeIievered to
 New Haven Road.

One of the two electric freight loco- motives ordered last May for the New Haven road from the Nesting ghouse Electric company has been completed and delivered to the company, which is now conducting thorough tests as to speed and hauling ability on a, track about one mile long built for that pur- pose near GIenbrook. The other electric freight engine will be ready for deliv- cry in a short time, it is stated, but it is unlikely that thev will be tried out in actual service until the electrical experts of the New Haven complete their experiments with these motors.
 These electric motors will be capable of hauling the heaviest freight trains on the New Haven road at an avera ge speed much higher than that now ob- tained by steam locomotives. The four steel motor cars and six steel trailers ordered by the New Haven some time ago have been delivered by the West inghouse people These are to be used on the suburban service until after thorough tests have been made by the conpany'S experts. Some of these mo- tors were. brought to New Haven d short time ago and overhauled al the repair plant of the company.

City Government by Amateurs.

Washington is the nations city So its administrators are national officers, and their selection is a matter of na- tional interest. While they are not charged with legislative duties. as these belong to congress, they have d wide latitude of action and on their efficiency and constructive ability de- velopment of the city is largely de- pendent
 Unfortunately municipal experts have never been put at the head of the district and city government. The retiring commissioners were newspa- per correspondents, who, although they performed their novel duties with in telligence, had had no training for the work. They are to be succeeded by two citizens of Washington. who have just been appointed by President Taft One of them Cuno H. Rudolph is a hard ware merchant. The other, John A. Johnston, was a brigadier general in the regular army, who resigned seven years ago to become identified with a loan and trust company in Washing ton.
 The new commissioners are regarded in Washington as men of good ca pacity, and their appointment is re- ceived with satisfaction. It is unfor- tunate that, the president could not have undertaken the innovation of a municipal government for the national capital conducted by experts.-Kansas City Star.

RURAL CARRIERS.
Order From Washington to Prevent Them From Hunting on Routes.

Rural free delivery carriers in New London county will be interested in an order which was recently issued from the office of the postmas ster general at Washington. It is to the effect that rural carriers must not hunt any more while on their trips.
 This rule means the loss of a lot of sport to rural carriers-not per- haps to the carriers in this part of the country, where game is not so plentiful but on some routes hunting comes first, and the distribution of post cards, love InissiveS and other mail matter is secondary considera- tion.
 The carriers carry guns with them, the department has learned. and cut off stray birds with great gusto. sThey are no longer to be allowed to carry any firearms even under the guise of doing it for protection
