To ad6~to the perp1exity tof the mill owners, it is said, the annual spring exodus of workers to Canada for the summer season has begun earlier than ordinary While it is thought the colonization of the Canadian northwest may have taken many of the operatives, it is not thought that this will account for the disappearance of all of them and no satisfactory explanation has been Round. The manufacturers claim that they are paying good wages.

NO PRESENTATIONS FOR

Instead, Their We'll wfshers Will Re
 At Police Headquarters Satur- .I day Before.

In accordance with the wishes of the police board which last night went upon record as being averse to inter ference with depart routine on the night when patrolmen are assign ed to duty, Superintendent Eugene Birmingham today set Saturday, March 29, commencing as early as 2 p. m., as the. date for inaugural speech-mak1ng, presentation of equip ment and such other tokens as the friends of newly appointed officers and patroImen may wish to make.
 It was unanimously agreed by the police commissioners that no speech making, presentation or demonstration which would interfere with the usual police work would be permitted on April 1. Saturday was therefore se- lected by the superintendent of police as being the most available day for the gathering of the many friends and delegations who will undoubtedly wish to follow the long established custom, and no restriction will be placed up- on the ceremonies until the midnight hour.

FREYLER'S NEW
 RESTAURANT IS
 FINE SHOW PLACE
MAIN DINING ROOM oE prc TABLISHMENT NOW OPEN RATHsKELLAR AND OTHER DEPARTMENTS WILL SOON BE COMPLETED.

a Pending the completion of some of the smaller rooms which will make the establishment the biggest and best of it's kind between New York and Boston, the main dining room of the new Fairfield restaurant and Franzis- kaner RathskelIar, has been onened by the proprietor, F. J. 'FreyIer. The patronage thus far in the main dining room which is open to gentlemen and ladies escorted has been most satis- factory to Sanford Fuller and Edward Freyler, managers for MT. F. J. Frey Ter.
 The main dining room now open is Handsomely finished in mission furnf- ture and is beautifully lighted bv the SeIn1-1no1rect system. Joseph Bottag- Hola, formerly of the BresIin. New York, is in charge of the kitchen and the dining room steward is John Ar mold, assisted by Eddie Lewis A Hun garfan orchestra, under the Ieadersbin or M. A. Struki give concerts every evening and Signor Martuccf, tenor. is heard in high class song numbers
 The dining room exclusively for ladies unescorted will be open in q few weeks. This room is near the Fairfield avenue entrance and is par titioned off from the main dining room. The rathske1lar will be on the lower floor and will accommodate 300 persons. The floors will be of tile. and marble walls and onyx pillars will add to the richness of the fittings. There will be a handsome electric fountain in the center of the rath- skellar and the tapestries and wood work will be of the handsomest de- sign.
 The completed restaurant and rath- skellar, the conception of F. J. Frey Ter, will be one of the big show places of Bridgeport when it is completed and will compare most favorably with anything of it's kind in metropoIiten n centers.

Frank Ludford, a well known mem Der of St. Joseph's T. L. & B. Asso- citation, will probably be appointed a member of the fire department at a meeting of the commissioners Friday night. The vacancy is caused by the dec1ination of Charles A1bus, who re- gently was appointed to the depart ment.
 MT. Ludford lives at 3s3 Pembr oke street and is employed at the Singer Manufacturing company. His appoint ment is regarded as a certainty, as he has qualified physically and is ac- ceptab1e to the commissioners.
