CRIMINAL COSTS HIGH.
Record Figures Probable, Due to Great
 Number of Tramps.

Indications are that the criminal costs in Killngly for the fiscal year l9i3-1914 will exceed the figures for any of the recent years. This is be- ieTed to be due to the number of hoboes that have been drifting into this town since early in the fall The court records show that most of the persons arrested are of the class re- HeTfed to. Reputable residents of the town have not appeared in court in any greater numbers than in former years though the usual sprinkling of "regulars' keep coming in. Last year the criminal account of the town showed a total of $1,897S1. less re- cefpts, fines and costs amounting to s355.0S, the net expense to the town $900 went to court officers

PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA.
1t Gave a Splendid Account of itself in sridseeort-At Slater Hall Friday Evening.

Undoubtedly there will be a large sized audience of music lovers to greet the Philadelphia orchestra af Slater hall this evening. The orchestra has reached a high degree of perfection under the direction of Leopold Stolxow- ski as conductor and 1t now ranks as one Of the leading organizations of its Kind in the world. There are S5 mu- siciafis. each one a skilled performer. and people who have heard them play say there Is no doubt that Friday eve nthg's concert will be one of the most brilliant of the season. splendid programme of the highest class has been arranged and the hall doubtless VIII have standing room only when Mr. Stozowski raises his baton for the opentng number. Frank l.. Farrell, the well known pianist of this city. is to be the soloist and all his friends will be on hand to hear him play the Liszt symphony with the orchestra
 The orchestra was in Bridgeport Monday evening and received ffatter- ing notices from the press. One paper said; StokoWSk is readily accorded 2 place among the finest conductors of the world by the best critics of the day and after hearing the masterly work of the orchestra last evening un- der his baton, it is 0 very easy matter to understand He is very young man, almost boyish looking. He is the husband of Madame Samaroff, the pianist whose splendid concert before the Wednesday Afternoon Musical club some few years ago is still remem- bered as she too is an artist of the first rank. The opening number the overture, The Marriage of Figaro. Mo xart, was given in 8 light sparkling manner, thoroughly ill the spirit of the composer and in this MT. Stol1owski gave an insight into what 8 reading the. symphony would receive at his hands. He conducts absolutely with s7tf score, as has become the habit of Gla great conductors
 Ere symphony, full of grandeur and $ a& ness. received a wonderful in- te eretaticn and the splendid ability iths man was evident in the effects paich ae obtained. Instant was the a Sponse to his baton from his highly <tf1cient band of musicians, whether it vas the swelling to q vast crescendo, 1T the softening down to the faintest oidnissimo. The cimaxes were pow erful in the extreme, and the contrasts dn the light and shade were clean cut, and the rhythm and harmony absolute.
 Tickets are on sale at George A. Da- wis and may be purchased at Slater hall on Friday evening.

TWENTY DEGREES BELOW.
Arctic Temperature Prevailing in and
 About the Borough.

All records for cold this season went to smash Thursday morning when thermometers throughout the town of killingly were on the verge of begging to be taken in beside q good hot fire and thawed out.E There isn't much use in attempting to set down just how cold 1t really was. for there was a great variance between the minimum and the maximum below zero records reported. One man knows positively that, at a certain hour, at his house, it was 6 below, while another man looked square in the face (the glass; of an instrument that was showing 19 degrees under the zero mark. In the latter case the thermometer was hung on the northwest side of a house on the hill at E1mville. On Maple street it was Is degrees below, Is be- low at the Wood farm on the Green Hollow and IA below at the Quine- building on School street. These read ings were all made between the hours of and ' a. m. The record low report came off al instrument on Main street. the mark being 20 below but there is no one to guarantee that this particular thermome eter, like some hu- man beings, is not given to the prae- tice of exaggeration, or. perhaps, min imitation, in this case.
 In any event, the difference in the degree of cold reported seems to be due to al differenc in location to the hours at which they were read and to the disposition and general inclination of thermometers.
 Mille men and others who were call ed upon to be out in the early hours and to take long drives suffered from the intense cold and reports came in of fingers and noses nipped by frost, but nc one was reported, in this sec Ina: ell Tro0 nj dentally, ice will be cheaper next sum mer
