For the first time in many years these two teams will be pitted against each other in a same where skill and endurance will decide the result of the struggle, not weight.

New London, Oct. 13.-With Post master Bryan F. tMahan personally interested in the advancement of the best interests of his native city and being a regular attendant at the meet ings, the New London Chamber of Commerce is bound 70 be an influence in shaping municipal matters, even at the risk of being accused of proddlng the court of council to a sense of gen. eraI activity in making New London a bigger a more beautiful and better city. MT Mahan advocated build ing code for the city that would put an end to the construction of three story frame tenement houses in diff ferent sections of the city that tend to decrease the value of other property in the vicinity and detract from the architectural beauty of the surround ings MT. Mahan said these buildings are no longer permitted to be built in Bridgeport and New Haven, and there should be d building code in New London that would end their con- struction in New London Two of these monstrcsities are being erected now in MOntauk avenue and of the cheapest construction and built pure ly for the purpose of bringing coin to the owner and without any other con- sideration. Such buildings are dam aging to all other property in the vicinity. committee was appointed to investigate the conditions and then report to the court of comon council a remedy, and urge Its adoption by the council
 Postmaster Mahan also caused the appointment of a committee to con sider the control of the streets. and urge council action that would prevent individuals opening up streets with out regard to width or alignment, dis pose of building lots and then saddle the irregular street upon the city for maint tenance. This is a growing mu- nicipaI evil he said and there ought to be an end to it as soon as possible. It was supposed that this matter was entirely with the city council, full power having been given in special acts passed at the 1913 session of the general assembly when Alderman AL ton T. Miner was a member of the senate. The preliminary action for the enforcement of the special acts council but it has never been observed to it's full limitations. These same cts gave to the city the fullest pow CTS in regard to the establishment of building lines, and a few other things that have never received municipal attention.
 The new court of common council is now fully organized and Mayor Rog- CTS has the standing committees that the to have. charge of the several city departments, with the mayor as chair man ex-officio of them all while the council has a comfortable republican working majority the mayor gave more consideration to the minority that is given in the Connecticut gen eral assembly, where democrats are not given place on the more important committees and are always in hopeful minority in meetings. The mayor ap- pointed these democrats to commit tees: Alderman, Alton T. Miner to streets and sidewalks, police. con-

Murray to finance, fire, pO- lice, new buildings; Alerrnan Gragan to street lights, printing, almshouse, special; Alderman Harrigan to street lights, health, street railway; Alder man Wuest to public property, print ing; Alderman Collins to health, new buildings, alrnshouse special. The democrats were given a majority on the police street lights, health, print ing, new buildings and almshouse special committees, six of the seven standing committees of the council. That was a very liberal consideration, but when it came to the dealing out of offices within the gift of the coun- cil that carried pay with them, the council rightly put none but republi- cans on guard
 The council created new office, or rather, perhaps, new man for the old office of fire marshal, the duties of which were supposed to have been performed by the chief engineer An ordinance was adopted which more clearly sets forth the duties of the office and which includes a personal inspection of properties within the city with a view to fire prevention and the incumbent is required to devote all of his time to the duties of the po- sition. Another ordinance fixes the salary at $500 a year and names the first assistant engineer as the fire marshall, who will do the work in con- junction with the chief engineer. The first person to fill the office is Charles H. Rose, who has been in the active service of the, fire department ever since he was old enough to eligible some very young fellows were elected to membership in the fire department, in the days when the boys ran "wid der merchene" and manned the brakes. MT. Rose knows all about fires and fire prevention, and no better selec- tion could have been made. He ex- actly fits the place.
 The council used to fill a long list of offices that were referred to as minor offices, but these have been gradually decreased but upon what Supposedly they were originally named upon some legal authority and if so that authority has never been abrogated, even if some of the of fees have become obsolete. There are no more tytningmen, gaugers or the like and all that remains are the weighers, inspector of wood, pound keeper, fence Tewerys and inspectors of lumber. The dropping of these minor offices commenced less than ten years ago, when the council made no appointment of city gauger on the false supposition that there was no one qualified to do that service, and that with the death of the gentleman who filled the position for a great many years gauging in New London became a lost art. Since then there has been 3 gradual dropping off of these minor offices, and if this pro- cedure continues, it will not be many years when New London will have no fence viewer, no inspector of wood, no pound keeper, no wefghers and no inspectors of lumber = and then the millennium

While / stood gazing, wide-eyed, a
man passed by me. Even in the in.
slant of my first glimpse of him l
was overwhelmed with feeling of
intense depression. Without conscious
volition, after he had almost disap-
peared within the shadows cast by
the houses, I followed him. He shut
fled rather than walked. Occasionally
he passed through the glare of the
light streaming from some unshad-
ed window and I saw that he was
ragged and unshaven. We had gone on
thus for perhaps half a mile and
come into a section in which the
houses are more widely separated
than is common in most of our streets
when suddenly the man halted. He
stood in front of a house from which
came the sound of merry laughter.
He gave no heed to me as I approach
ed. He was too absorbed in contem-
plation of the scene in the front room
of the house and which two incur
tanned windows gave us a full view
of.

smile on her features. I do not know
how long my friend and I stood look
