With about ?700 of , unexpended money to disburse before the close of the fiscal year, or face the alter native of returning the money to the city treasurer, the board of police commissioners last - night decided to install at once at a cost not to ex ceed $288 a pistol range in the base ment at Police & Charities building; to buy one or two new police signal boxes and relocate several others which under changed conditions are not now advantageously placed; and to exchange the four old bicycles of the cycle squad for new vehicles. The work of building the range will be done by Major Hurley of the po lice commission, at a cost of $188. The Bridgeport Boiler Works will in stall the metal backing for the tar gets at $100. The new signal boxes are to . cost $150 each. The bicycle deal is to cost $100. H. S. Challenger submitted an offer to exchange for $110. The board voted to give him $100 and the old bicycles for new Crescent bicycles with the best Hart ford tires. In connection with the discussion of new bicycles it was suggested that a. motor cycle might be used to ad vantage in the department, and while no steps were taken to that end, it was agreed that such a vehicle was dpsirable and it was suggested that the bicycle policeman might be pro vided with motor cycles, one, a year, until the present style of vehicle is I supplanted. , Whether the police department has a right to hold up the TI. 6. mail wagons in enforcing traffic regula tions was Questioned by Major Hur ley. He had observed an automobile held up recently at Fairfield avenue and Main street. The machine f ol-. lowed a mail wagon that had crossed the corner in violation of the traffic regulations. In keeping with the increased ap propriation for policemen made by the board of apportionment, the board last night decided to ask the common council to so amend the po lice ordinance that the maximum number- of patrolmen should be 85 instead of 80. There are now 79 po licemen. Patrolman Deitz's death re- aucing tne lull complement. Six new cops are to be elected in April. Ap plications . were received last night from Jacob Grossman and Frank Regnery. . . Before taking any steps in the pay ment of salary to Patrolman Schultz, who had been laid up with a dis abled knee since Jan. 14, the commis sioners will await a report from Supt. Birmingham, Schultz reported last night that in 1906 he fell in a hole in the dark near a house where he was looking for a fugitive. His knee had since bothered him, and early this year became so painful that- he was obliged to have it placed in a plaster cast. STRATFORD y Much to the surprise and chagrin of many good citizens, a gang of a dozen men has been at work for the ps.st two days digging up the maca dam along Main street, at every joint in the rails of the trolley road. The result is heaps of concrete and crushed stone are piled up the whole length of the street, the - oad bed of which was laid less than one year ago. It seems very strange that the work of fixing the joints of the track could not have been done at the time the macadam was laid. Town of ficials should be able to look ahead for- at least 12 months, and not have a good street destroyed so soon after being constructed Word was given out a long time ago that ship loads of gas mains had arrived at the local docks, and that pipes tor the transmission of s would be laid at once. Up to date there are no signs that the work is about to commence, and when it does, the prospect Is the town will again see Main street torn up. The following gentlemen will have charge of the affairs of Christ church durlngthe coming year: Walter Wil coxson, John E. Holmes, G. F. Jud- son, Frederick Booth, William H. Freyer, George Booth, A. , DeForest Wheeler, Charles Wilcoxson, Walter Blarney, E. H. Littell, Harold Lovell, Harry Wilcoxson, H. A. Powell, and u. l-i. Rhoades. Mrs. Albert Rockwell has returned to Brattleboro, Vt. . . Newton J. Reed is now occupying his new house-on Elakeman place. Nate Osborne has recently - dis located his shoulder, as the result of jumping from a moving trolley car. Mrs. Dora Jaeger, from Waterbury, is visiting Mrs. irvin Garllck. The. School Board will meet next Monday evening. In preparation for the contemplated change in the prin- cipalship or the schools of this town, the proposition being to have a male principal act as superintendent at the same time, the Board has informed the town of Huntington that it wish es to withdraw from the arrangement whereby the Stratford superintendent also looks after the . Huntington scnools. There wall be quite work enough for the new male principal if he has to teach and superintend at the same time, without seeking outside employment. 1 Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S O ASTOR I A FAIRFIELD BOOM IN WOODEN NUTMEGS. Wearing necklaces of wooden nut megs about 30 members of J. C Tut hill camp, W. O. W., this city, will go to New York, this evening, where they will be guests of Fordharn camp. Dipping the tips of the fingers in warm olive oil every night is the best, method for keeping the nails in good condition. . A number of mercantile changes are contemplated within a few days, and several kinds of business will seek new quarters. A new partner ship has been formed, and a new office will soon be opened. It is highly probable that the Lloyd Griscom family will not occupy the Bronson house of Greenfield Hill for several months. It will take a long time to dispose of the stock, car riages and much of the furniture be longing to Mrs. J.- K. Robinson. " A member of her family said yesterday that they do not expect to return to Ohio before the middle of July. Edward B. Morehouse has been suffering from an -attack of bron chitis and grip. He was able to be out yesterday for the first time in a couple of weeks1. - Town Clerk Flint announces that the dog tags for " the current year have arrived, and can be had by pay ing the price. -. - r Work. at the Aluminum foundry is represented as being rather slow for sometime past and a number of hands have been laid off. Louis Morehouse was in town over Easter from New York. Oscar Nelson has left the employ ment of the Aluminum foundry. Mrs. John C. Lobdell is quite ill with the grip. Some good people have mistaken A. Holland Forbes' pergola, in his back yard, for a landing stage for a f lying machine. This makes Mr. Forbes smile. He innocently remark ed, a day or two ago, as a joke, thai he had bought a flying machine for his wife. Out of this grew a special story full of all sorts of adventure and rainbow tints.. ; . Selectman Morehouse, who has re cently been quite ill, is again able to ! be about and attend to business. i Prof. Joy of the Hargrove school is spending his vacation in town. Next Monday evening he will lecture at the Stratfield on Carlyle. Next Sunday a number of young men compete for position on the new Fairfield baseball team.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which ; is made from the roots and herbs of the field, and has cured more women of female ills than any other remedy we know of. HOUSEHOLD NOTES Raw eggs (rubbed into the hair and seato before washing are excellent, and tend to prevent the hair from turning gray. To clean rurs. lay them straight and brush with a stiff. dry scrubbing brush. This is much better than shak incr nr beating them. Though it is extravagant the sub stitution of cream or milk in the mak ing cf pumpkin pie will result in a most delicate dessert. In making cranberry jelly or jam, much Jess sugar will be required if the sugar not added until the fruit has been well cooked. When cooking a spare rib, peel sour apples, core and cut in half; bake thera with the porle They will be found a delicious accompaniment. A good salve to use for the lips when they are inclined to crack is composed of half an ounce of lanoline and an equal .part of honey or glycerine. Ivory knife handles that have be come yellow from constant washing may usualy be whitened by rubbing with emery paper and polishing with chamois. Keep a pumice stone hy your sink. When there are fc-own streaks i.n your granite, porcelain lined or steel kettles, rub them off with thej stone. , - A clean cloth dipped in hot water and then placed in a saucer of bran, will clean white paint and not injuire it. The soft bran acts like soap on the -paint. ' When making aprons, especially those to be used in dloing housework. do not forget a large pocket. It will save many a step in dusting in pick ing up. A crust of bread is best to clean a stickv bread or cake pan. Never use a, knife or anything that rt'ill scratch the surface ant invite more sxicmng therearter.- A small button of garlic In a quart of vinegar will give it a mysteriously delicious flavor, and will also immensely- improve salads or anything with which it is used. A repfreshine- drink for afternoon card parties Is made of equal parts of ginger-aie anu grape juico. pcivc straight, thin glasses, with a maras chino cherry floating on top. " In putting down linoleum or oil cloth have strips of moulding nailed on the edges, next to the baseboard. This prevents dust from getting under and preserves tne eages. - Roller shades may be satisiactoruy cleaned. 'Remove from the window, spread on a table, and rub mem thor oughly with heated corn meal, wiping them off with a cloth dipped! in gaso line. " . Arrowroot will be found more satis factory than cornstarch for thickening fruit sauces or juices to oe usea wiin sauces. It does not cnange tne nquiu, nor does it cloud it at all. When the color of a dress has faaea owing to stains from lemon or other acid fruit juice, a good idea Is to touch the snots with liquid ammonia, which will often restore the color.
