leading anarchists in this country and
Italy. It is further reported that at
least the names of two prominent
Kensington men appear in the anar-
chistic organ.
The existence of a gang in Kens-
ington has been called to the atten-
ton of the federal authorities in Hart
ford, by Prosecutor William H. Glib
ney. Nothing so far as is known, has
been done in the matter. Prosecutor
Gibney has been keeping a close watch
on the movements of the gang and 1t
is said has secured some damaging
evidence.
It is said the band has been meeting
in Berlin for over two years and it was
only through accident that the au-
thorities learned Of the organization.
While working on liquor cases In this
town, it is said, a federal detective as
signed to help the local prosecutor be-
came friendly with the members OF
the anarchist society and was taken
into their confidence. The detective
learned all their secrets and objects
and communicated with Prosecutor
G4bney. In the meantime, according
to Mr. Gibney, the local Italians be-
came suspicious that they had been
betrayed and after due diligence dis
covered the source. Fearing his life,
the detective left Kensington.

DR.. Griswold's Report.
Exposing sanitary conditions as
most unsatisfactory, showing entire
lack of system, rendering his resigna-
ton and branding the recent wide
spread of epidemic as due entirely to
the complete lack of prevention on
the part of the town officials, school
boards and health boards of the past,
are some Of the outstanding features
in the annual health officers report
submitted to the selectmen by DR..
Roger M. Griswold. In his report
DR.. Griswold shows that vaccinations
in the schools had been so neglected
that when general vaccination was
ordered by the request Of the school
board, out Of more than 400 children
