BOOK ON BIRDS
 ISSUED BY THE STATE
Complete List of Connecticut's Feath-
 cred Creatures Shown.

The commission on the geological and natural history survey of Connect ieut has issued Bulletin No. 20, relat~ ing to the birds of Connecticut. It is a volume of 370 pages, including the index, and was prepared by John H. Sage, M A.. of Portland, and Dr.. Louis Bennett Bishop of New Haven, assisted by Walter Park Bliss, N. A
 The volume is the first annotated list of the birds of Connecticut since Dr. c. Hart Merriam's Review of the Birds of Connecticut, published in 1ST7 The present work is based chief ly upon the observations made by MT. Sage and pr. Bishop-observati ex- tending in the case of Mr. Sage, over a period of more than 45 years, and in the case of Dr. Bishop, over pe- riod of more than 50 years. The bull letin does not give descriptions and analytical keys for the identification of our birds and it is not illustrated The book indicates the birds that re- side in Connecticut through the year or in the summer or the winter, the birds which visit us in their spring and fall migrations, the dates of migra- ton and the dates of nesting. It cites records of the instances in which those birds have been observed which are only rare and occasional visitants. It indicates the range of those birds which occur in particular parts of the state, although not generally distrib- uted over its area The book contains also a chapter on economic ornithol- ogy, by Dr. Bishop, which will be of great importance to farmers and birds have been victims of popdlar prejudice, and in tending to pTeyent the slaughter of some birds which are really the farmers friends.

NEW PoQUoNoc SCHOOL.
Dedicated in Seventy District of Town
 of -Groton.


 The new school building of the Sew enth district of Groton was dedicated Tuesday afternoon, the exercises com mencfng at 2.3Q. Appropriate speeches and exercises by the school children marked one of the most important days the village of Poquonoc has observed. Judson Burrows, chairman of the building committee, which. has sue cessfully accomplished the completion of new school building for that dis trict, made the official speech of pres enta4ion, and William H. Trail school committee, formally accepted the building on behalf of the district Among the other speakers were Rev. J. Romeyn Danforth of New London, Rev George R. Atha of Groton and Rev o. G. BuddfngtOn of PoquOnoc Bridge.
 This Wednesday, morning the pu- pills of the Seventh school district will commence their sessions in the new building. Since the fire which to- tally destroyed the Poquonoc school house over year ago, the school has been held in @ part of the witch hazel mill, adjacent to the lot on which the new building has been erected. The only item which handi- caps the complete success of the new Poquonoc school building is ''-~ fact that the pupils are not afforded ade- quate plaYr0om. The officials of the Seventh district are negotiating with the borough of Groton for a strip of land adjoining the schoolhouse lot, which it is desired to lease for play ground purposes,
 The building committee which sue ceeded the board which was dis charged, and which has devoted much time to the building of the modern schoolhouse which now stands iii place of the destroyed wooden one, is composed of Judson Burrows, Charles Palmer, William s. Thomas, Lyman Chapman, Calvin Burrows.

THIRTEEN BID TO BUILD PIERS
At East New London-From 12 to 18 Months Asked Finish the Work-Fgures Said to Be Near Estimated Cost of $4OOO00.

Thirteen bids of the construction or the substructure of the steamship terminal at East New London were opened st the office of the New Lon don harbor commission in the Gold smith building at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon in the presence of the mem bers of the sub committee Hon. Thom- as F. Noone of Rockville, chairman, William H. Caldwell of New Britain and Frank V. Chappell of New Lon don. Present were representatives of the bidding contractors.
 Owing to the fact that there are 37 items to be figured on in each bid, in addition to the guarantee as to time or construction and as no total amounts of bids were submitted. it was inn possible to form an accurate idea of which contractor was the lowest in his estimate. Some were lower in certain items and higher in others. Consequently not until the figures are compiled and the totals estimated by the engineers can any definite figures be given out.
 The bids will be submitted to the tull commission at a meeting to be held at the capitol in Hartford next Tuesday and at that time the contract will probably be awarded. It was ru- mored about among the contractors representatives present that the bid of Roger B. Kennedy of Utica, N. Y., ap- peared to be 8 pretty low one. That of the T. A, Scott company, the only New London bidder, was also reported as being well within the running
 Chairman Noone called the meeting to order and announced it's purpose and Secretary ChaDpell then read the list of bidders, following which he opened the bids and read their con- tents. The reading occupied an hour.
 The bidders and the time in which they agreed to complete the terminal are as follows:
 Roger B. Kennedy. Utica. 365 work ing days,
 Fred T. Ley & Co, Springfield, Mass. finish by Aug. e9a1 A.
