Judge Austin Entortsins the Men's Club of St. Paul's Church. Judge Alfred 1-). Austin gave a very pleasing talk last evening to the mem» bers of the Men's Club, of St. Paul's Church. in the lierkoley street chapel. The judge returned recently from his plantation in Cuba and spoke eaten. slvely of the pleasing surroundings at that part of the country The talk was very instructive, and those pres- ent were very fortunate in hearing it The speaker also mentioned Mexico and the bull lights that are held there, they being just as popular in that pari of the country as a. prize fight is here. He. stated that when a bull fight is go ing to be held, the city makes it a sort of holiday. and men, women and children alike flock to the large arena, and watch and applaud. They think that it Is great sport to see a bull ell- ter the mossy arena, and gel gored to death by a little. man ill red, who, if he loses, is a disgraced man. He also spoke of the extensive to» bacco plantations of Cuba and Mexico which tllrn out tlle finest tobacco leaves grown. Altogether the talk was most interesting. and will be one long to be remembered by those who were present last evening. At the conclusion of Judge Austin's speech. Mr. Stewart sang several pleasing solos. the Rev. Mr. Hobart told several funny Irish stories, which were highly amusing, while Willis H. Fryer, and the. pastor of St. Paul's, Rev. Louis B. Howell, also did their share ill the story line. After the speech making sandwiches and coffee were served to all present. —-NOTICE!

Perry, ol‘ Fairdold, a member of lile commis- sloll. Judge Perry had explained lin- blll nt ll prior hearing. but he Went. over the lending features or the bill again. ill ordel that he might answer questions pill by numbers of the pull (lary committee. Senator Sculls. oi the collllnittcc, wished to know ii' the registration feature of lllt’ bill could be abused as llle present caucus law is, and Judge Perry thought it could not, as an elec. tor lllilst register sixty days before the primary, and, if he changes from one pllrty to another. he must give notice t” the change. ninety days in ad v u n erg Senator liatlnler wanted what would happen in sculltorlill districts composed, us his is, of one large and one slllnll town. and asked if it was likely that a candidate from the small town would ever gel u chance. Judge Pcrry'remlndcd him that the senators represent illcll anti not localities, and therefore the prob- Ielll brought up by Illlll was not on important one. Senator lafltlllli'l‘ then asked if the illliuclico (if the foreign \‘tllt' would not be increased by the direct primary. and Judge Pcrl'y April that it the right to vote is accorded it! the tor- clgncr. ”10 right to nominate should be also.

Judge Perry said the plan might increase illt' expenses of candl- dutcs, bill be felt that tllc time has come when some limitation of expens es should be made by statute. lll conclusion, Judge Perry called attention to the work done by the late Frank T. Brown as a member of the commission, and said that no more fitting memorial could be given him than the enactment of the bill upon Whlt‘ll he labored. (‘harlcs Hopkins Clark and Colonel Theodore ll.

Wood, commanding the Department of llle Laid. has arranged broader details of the lnilnenvres which will be fol- iowcll by similar operations of the national guard and the Industry gurrr sons of all tllir coast cities of the Al- ianlic seaboard. Young lili‘l in the guard who have a liking or a talent for the plufesslun of arms will have opportunities this summer to see some at its most interesting and intricate details in operation under lhelr own eyes. "We will act under the supposition." General Wood said yesterday. 'that an invading force has made it successful landing beyond the range of any coast fortifications and is attempting an as- sault upon the coast forts from the rear. The United States troops and the National Guard regiments will be put through the maneuvres necessary to oppose such a campaign." He explained that the men will be kept largely in the field during these operations, covering a consilerabie territory and meeting with emergen- cies and general situations in which they have in most cases never had any previous training. Under the law the militiamen will be compelled to prac- tice with great guns in the fortresses a portion of the time. but this will be reduced to a minimum to permit the greatest possible attention to the field maneuvers. Tactical problems will be constantly worked out in the movement of the moons, and he hopes that a large pro- portion of the Guardsmen will return :mlll the iield work with new and ln'rger ideas of methods in handling troops. There is not so much money avail- lhle this year for the field maneuvers '18 there was last year, and it is not lossible to bring so many regiments ‘rnm the interior to take part In them. Tile average cost for each man is lboul 3205 Consequently a large auto. her of the National Board of this state and others whose rogimentaL head- quarters are on the coast will see more activity and a greater diversity of duty than ever before. Details of the operations are now being warkod out by Colonel Kronk- belt and others of General Wood's staff. They will not be made public for the obvious reason that even in a sham battle an attacking and a de- fending form should not be made ac- quainted with each other‘s plan of campaign.

There is one crlllllb of consolation for taxpayers who may take the proba- ble increase this year bard. Ilcrcto fore the town tax has been collectablo from September first. bllt it is now pro- posed to have it collected ll month and possibly six weeks later. Previously it has been the claim of new hoards of h’l‘lcclnlt‘il that much of the tax for the year Is paid out before they go into office. With the board of anti. male and taxation. the sclectmen are now limited rigidly to the amount of money they can spend, bllt. if there was no board the selectnlcn would not have the opportunity of former years, should the collection date be changed. Last night the board of estimate alld taxation had their last public hearing of the year, at the city council chlllllv her in Havlland street. Messrs. (‘llarl- on W. Bell. b. C. Palmer. James 1.. lioyt and Christian Swarlz were ill at- tendance, and First Selectman James A. Brown was also on hand. Belle Island Roads. The summer rm dilents of Belle 18 land made a \‘lgololls appeal.

They desire to have the town award them about 250 for crushed stone on the roads they have. The property owners of the island maintain that they pay a large tax, and should receive some re- turn from the town. Ely Avenue Improvement. Game Warden Wilbur F. Smith was also present, and urged that the town improve the Ely avenue roadbed from the South Norwalk city lino south- ward. The residents of the thorough- fare petitlonad the selectlnen some time ago regarding the matter. It is figured that this work will cost. about 32.000. The board has notyet definitely de- cided on any of the questions. Their next meeting, which will not be open to the public. will be held at the call of the chairman. lillltllilllil ill lilllll RlBlSlill Silli ll lilllll Providence Police Bailled. ‘Bui Are Continuing Eiloris to Find the Mall PROVIDENCE.
