With the approval of James J. Hill, owner of the steam yacht Wacoutar Captain David Weed, furnished a feast of St. Lawrence river salmon to the in mates of the New London jail. to the poor who reside at the almshouse. and to the patients in the Memorial and Lawrence hospitals, and also remem- bered many friends and acquaintances in the city. And that was not all. When the yacht was hauled out on the marine railways Captain Weed pre- sented salmon to all the workmen in the shipyard and the balance he dis tributed to all corners as long as the stock of choice fish lasted. The cap tain also sent supply to the Harbor club of which be is a member and on Wednesday night there was a salmon supper at the club and all that goes with such an event. Besides there were speeches and songs, with pleas ing references to Captain Weed and Mir. Hill It seems that while the cap tin of the Wacouta was busted extend ing the compliments of MT. Hill to the public institutions in New London, several institutions in the city of New ork were serving some of the catch of Mir. Hills party to the patients and inmates.
 It is the custom each season for MT Hill and a party of friends to go on a salmon fishing trip in the St. Law renee special fishing grounds for which privilege a large sum of money is paid
 The Wacouta was formerly the Eleanore and was built for and owned by William A. Slater of Norwich and in which the original owner and fam fly made several foreign cruises. The yacht is now in winter quarters in Shaw's cove, New London.

Certain persons in certain places
 seem to be immune from police mo-
 lestation in the conduct of their busi-
 ness, while others must keep close to
 the line of the law. This is with
 special reference to Sunday trade traf-
 fic when stores are open on that day
 just as every other day of the week and
 where no regard is paid to the Sab
 bath. Meat markets. grocery stores
 and the like are wide open and it would seem that a certain nationality that need not be mentioned seems to be the party favored. Perhaps the time has passed where ice cream, fruit, can fectionery and soda water cannot be purchaSed on Sunday and maybe that is as it should be in the gradual
 change to the continental Sunday, but there are many in New London who l believe there should be a check to the l rapidity in that direction.
 There is perhaps more laxity in that
 respect in New London than in any l other city in the state, which is in | marked contrast to the time when rail- road companies were not permitted to l operate trains and when public or pri- Yate work was not permitted and when even excursion parties were not allow ed/tO land at New London. This con- l dition existed during the official life 1 of a living ex-mayor of the city, who enforced the Sunday laws so strictly 1 that the same tactics had to be resort l ed to in order to get cigar or a
 cup of peanuts as was the case when | in quest of a drink of that which in | toxicates when taken to excess.

Mayor Mahan is perhaps one of the busiest men in the state of Connecti- cut just about this time, for in addition to his successful efforts in making good the promises made in Richmond that brought the big Deep Waterways to New London which would occupy all of the time of the ordinary man, in committee and outside of committee, he finds time to attend to his many personal interests, his duties as mayor, and responds to invitations to public functions in the interests of the city. This aside from the active interest in connection with the Connecticut Women's college and the expenditure of the $1,000 900 for the improvement of New London harbor.

Just the same it would seem but iustics to the saloon keeper who must close his place of business at Il o'clock at night and to keep closed on Sun day, that something should be done to regulate the pool rooms whose inf1u- ence is some respects is as detrimen- tai to the morals of the youth as the liquor saloon and even more so, for 1t has tendency to lead to gambling as well as to drink The pool rooms in New London. that is some of them, are kept open just as long as there is any business and when the clock in the steeple strikes twelve on Saturday nights the games go on just the same. In the opinion of many the line should be drawn on this tapping over into Sunday by the proprietors of these pool rooms and instruction should be issued to the police to see to it that the pool rooms are not operated or any part of Sunday.
 Somebody in police court the other day hinted that there was a law against boys lettering in these pool rooms. If that be so then for the good of these boys and the community as a whole that law ought to be enforced. Of course the police are kept busy on Sundays and after hours" in en- forcing the law regulating the sale of liquor, and therefore may be excused for what would seem to be de- reflection of duty or something else. But a fellow in the back seat asks: Are the Sunday liquor sales in New Lon don suppressed?" Ask the Sunday ex- cursionist from Providence, if there is objection tqa putting the query to toWnspeoplef

He will welcome the delegates to the annual convention of the Catholic Total Ab- stinence Union of Connecticut and al so the delegates of the Connecticut Firemen's convention. Mayor Mahan Is equal to the occasion and the won der is with so many and diversified problems for him to solve, he man ages to give personal attention to city affairs outside of the regular meetings of the court of common council. This week he took in hand a matter that seemed difficult to solve but the solu- tion came easy for him. Many years ago when no attention was paid to building lines in New London a house was built in that section of Bradley street between Douglass and Federal streets that encroached several feet on the street. Then the owner built a sidewalk in front of that house which made a projection and obstruction in the street, and this has been permitted to remain for more than half a cen tury.
 When the time came for laying new sidewalk in that section of the street the committee ran up against then tough proposition. Not so with the
