The annual report of the Law and ’ Order League of Connecticut was is- sued yesterday, The raid upon the pool rooms at Stamford and Greenwich nearly a year ago. and the subsequent conviction of 21 persona. managers and employees of these establishments are made conspicuous in the report. The fines and forfeited bonds in these cases amounted to nearly 817.000. A resume of the work is given as follows: "Our agents have investigated 47?. placee at the request of local citisens or officials. including places suspected of immorality. gambling and illegal liquor selling; 178 cases have been brought to the courts at the instance of the League. 1111 of which have been sentenced by the court. either after trial or upon pleas of guilty. It may be remarked with some satisfaction that only one person has been acquit- ted after a fair trial. "The lines imposed by the courts upon the cases brought by the League have been 014.488; forfeited bonds. $7.320. It is difficult to ascertain the amount of costs In all the cases. We have a record of payment of 36.5011. and we believe thnt if the costs could be accurately ascertained they would amount to more than $10,000. which would make an aggregate paymentby the criminals arrested at the instance of the League of more than 080.000. No mention is made In these figures of the amount of license bonds forfeited es the result of the conviction of ii- reused liquor deulers. if these bonds were all collected the state treasury would be enriched by many thousands of doilai'l. "Fifty-one raids have been made. which have resulted in the leisure of nearly l.” gallons of intoxicating liquors and about 1.11111 pounds of gambling paraphernalia. Which has been dealt with as the law provides. Seven persons have been sentenced to terms in prison. ranging from ten days to eighteen months. The most notable of these were the two cases of perlury before mentioned. OFFICE“ Oil‘ This 1‘. ii. 8.0. The 'i‘. ii. ii.

Experiences of a New tendon usa- A Word or Vaccine. The Hartford Times has cooled from interesting letters which William Pen- dletoa has been writing to New bon- lion friends. descriptive of his learner to the Klondike. Another latter has Just been received from him. dated No- vember 13. At that time he was at Dyes. where he will pass the winter. so it is impos- sible to go forward at this season. The weather has. not been severe up to the time the letter was written and 15 de- grees above sero has been the coldest. The only snow visible is on the 111111111» taln tops. lir.

Paadleton. there was one or possibly two log cabins in Dyes; now it is laid out In streets. the principal one of which is called Broad- way. and is being built up very fast. Of course the buildings are not slat» crate. but some are of good also and mostly constructed of lumber. There are few log cabins. There are grocer ice and general merchandise stores, meat markets. hardware and clothing stores. saloons a plenty. and a Meth- odist chapel about to be built. There is a wharf under construction which will have to be about four miles long. on account of the very high tides and shoal water. “Thereiare schemes and schemes. oil to malts money. and all waiting for the spring influx of tenderfeet. and if they don't get their purse strings pull- ed when they get there in the rush next spring. then I'm mistaken. ‘Woc unto ihc men who are coming hcrc this winter. thinking they arc going in get lots of work.an1l earn money enough to get to the gold fields in the spring. as there are ten men already for every Job. The. construction com- panies can get all the men they want at 83 a day. and that's not equal 111 one half the money in the states. A man better not do anything If he has plen- ty to out. because he will save his clothes. his health. and will not cni one-half as much of his outfit as he will to uttempt to work. No mun can afford to work here for less then so 11 day. . "801110 of the boys out to camp of Ninniic used to think when n storm prevailed or a herd rain fell it was pretty tough; but I am living inn twelve-ounce duck tent measuring 81 id fort. it was pretty cold last night yet i never slept more comfortably in my life. and i expect to keep warm In 11 tout when the temperature gets down much below zero. We have 11 move and plenty of wood to burn and plenty of time to cut it. Besides we have our tent banked up with spruce bougbs. which itecp tho .wind and cold out. and plenty of timber between us and the wind. "The great trouble is men get too anxious and try 111 travel too fast. and if you could see some of the out. fits that some are going in with it would surprise you at the foolhsrdi- nose of men for gold. Now i don’t ob- ,lect to the golds—that's just what He lifter. if i can get it, but I don't moon to ruin my health if i can help It. I made 11p my mind to that long ago.
