I have come into your common wealth, not to seek revenge, not to enter into a controversy with men in whom I onlv had every confidence, but lo ti"k for a fair deal. There is no malice in my heart. I am not here to incoke th strong arm of the law. My veracity has been attacked by men re siding in this community. They have fallen into evil hands and the tempta tion was too great. They have sold their birthright for silver and there probably was more than thirty pieces. Willing to Accept Verdict of People of Montana.

"At tii time of mv arrival In New York, after two years and three months'iii the Arctic regions', and wiien all America was rejoicing over the double discovery of the Xorth Pole, there began a warfare to rob me o 1lie glory of nn achievement which was, end is. rightly mine, Glorv Enough for Two. "Confident that -my rival liad tri- timphed after nearly a quarter of a entury in quest of the great unknown, I with all good Americans rejoiced in Jus success and In Copenhagen I de clared there was glory enough for-two. Tespite the bitter attacks which have een made upon me. my attitude in this respect is unchanged. SUFFRAGETTES THROW BOTTLE OF CORROSIVE ACID At the Polls in English Elections Of ficials Burned.

The a.id spattered over the officiate, und the broken glass cut their hands ami faces, hut fhe ballots were prac tically 'undamaged.

"When the warfare failed, the enemy began this flank movement on the climb of Mount McKinley. Men with money to burn in the flame of infamy entered the arena. Men of this com munity whom I had previously be lieved' honest fell as victims. Their statements were absolutely untrue. Still I nurse no spirit of revenge or malice against these misguided men. Mv counsel, however, has been in structed to continue the investigation until we catch the guilty money givers higher up. Hamilton and Missoula have clear ly shown their disapproval of this bat tle of injustice. They have shown they do not believe this malicious turn of rival powers. Your fairness and your faith is a pledge of human nature worth more than millions thrown into the hall of bribery. Will Again Ascend Mount McKinley. "For the present 1 am willing to trust my case to the citizens of Mon tana as a jury. After you have read the mass of testimony my counsel has collected, I am ready to abide by your verdict. Then, with a new expedition to Mount McKinley, 1 will guarantee our future possession. My records are on the summit of the Alaskan peak, and, accompanied by unbiased, fair minded men, 1 pledge you my word that I will again reach the top of the mountain and bring back this en-questionable proof of the success of my former expedition."

I AMERICAN ICE CO. PROSECUTION Opinion of Stockholders as to Value of Their Property. New York. Oct. 28. The opinion of the stockholders in the American Ice company as to the value of their prop erty was adduced as evidence for the prosecution today in the state's suit against the American Ice company for attempted restraint of trade. A com mittee appointed by the stockholders reported in December, 1003, after an Investigation of the company's prop erties in New York. Baltimore, Phila delphia. Boston and Washington, along the Hudson and in the Maine Ice fields, that "embracing, as it does, the control in live of file largest ciiies in the United Stales of a uonusti.- neces sity of increasing consumption the "jiroperly must have a great commer cial value."

CENERAL UPRISING FEARED In Hope of Intercession of United States Palace of Japanese Resident General Strongly Guarded. Seoul, Korea. Oct. 28. It Is evident from the attitude of a considerable sec tion of the Korean population that the assassination of Prince Mo was not un pleasing. Those comprising- this sec tion represent the element which Is now deprived of opportunities' formerlv offered here, and they are agitating for further violence. Viscount Sone, the Japanese resident general In Ko rea, is much disturbed by the reports coming in regarding the attitude of some of the officials and others who were formerly closely connected with the court of the emperor. Prominent Koreans in Secret Agitation. It- is now believed that the entire plot was hatched In SeouLand the clos est investigation is proceeding to dis cover the Instigators of Prine Ito's murder. It is said that there Is rea son to believe that several prominent Koreans, whiel not actually privy to the assassination, lent themselves to a secret agitation and encouraged the people in general in the opinion tliat the sympathy of foreign countries would be shown them if the situation were forcibly brought to their atten tion. It is now known that secret so cieties existed to spread the propo ganda that Prince lto's outward friend ship for Korea was merely a blind. Silly Reports Circulated. The report also was widely clrculat- ed that .la pun proposed to confiscate the property of all Koreans, depose the emperor and drive the people Into the sea. Resident General Guarded Day end Night. The palace of the resident general Is strongly guarded day and night. A decided feclim: of unrest pervades Ko-n-a. and it Is feared that the assassin ation will be followed up by an active movement loooking to a general upris ing in the hope of Intercession by the United States or some other power to prevent the further absorption of Ko rea's sovereignty by Japan. Important Developments Expected Soon The ten Koreans arrested at Harbin will be rigorously examined with h view to discovering the Instigators of the plot, of whom it is believed the assassin was merely the tool. Detec tives engaged in the case are using their utmost energies, and there Is rea son to believe that there will be Im portant developments In the near fu ture. It can be confidently stated, however, that the best element among the Korenns and a vast majority of trie people are still loyal to the mem ory of Prince Ito. and It la not consid ered possible that the agitation will be successful in unsettling- the country to any jrreat extent .especially In view o Japun's announced Intention not to change the policies promulgated by Ito. ITO'S ASSASSIN IDENTIFIED. Was Formerly an Editor at Seoul One of Twenty Conspirators. Harbin, Manchuria. Oct. 2. The assassin of Prince Ito was Identified today as Indian Angan. formerly on editor of, a newspaper at Seoul. He said that he was of an organisation of twenty Koreans who had taken an oath that they would kill the Japa nese statesman. The assassin used dumdum bullets which had been poi soned with cyanide. Funeral Preparations In Japan. Toklo. Oct. 2S. The Japanese wart-hip Ivvate which Is bearing home ward the body of Prlnre Ito, sailed from Dairen at ten o'clock this morn ing.

Eastern Connecticut cities had not much to show in the way of increased population tvhen the census of 1900 was taken, and some of them have since suffered serious drawbacks. The last double of population New London made was not an accomplishment of half a century. She should go faster, and It would please The Bulletin to see that city get a new gait, for that would mean quicker stepping here, at the head of tidewater.

HIS ONLY WEAKNESS. A great man cannot always be Judged by the quality and length of hla obituary, for about most public men It is apparent too much Is often said. Gen. Oliver Otis Howard, a brave defender of the flag and the friend of the oppressed of every race and color cannot have too much siiid of him, for he was great as a soldier for the preservation of the union on the march to the sea and on the field at Gettysburg, where for gallant con duct he received the thanks of con gress, and he was great in the field of philanthropy, where through edu cation and manual training he strove to elevate the red man and the colored man. and he has distinguished himself In all great religious progressive move ments. He made a few mistakes, the worst of which was the establishment of the Freedman's bank, which failed, j shows how their Latin foes have im and was regarded as evidence that he proved their aim. had "too much faith In human nature.'' Not so bad a failing. General How ard atood for righteousness Just as he stood for the flag; he stood for the under dog in modern civilization and never faltered. He enjoyed the full confidence of the government and of the people and his life is generally recognized as a completed volume of good works. In his declinlne- vfar. i he was charged with taking himself too seriously, but with his record in all the commendable walks of life so brilliant the world crui excuse his only weakness what has come to lie recognized as "a good man's fault." Genvrul Howard was brave and hon est arc! energetic :ind alive to every duty of good citizenship. THE ARTIFICIAL LIMB. A went opinion of the New Jersey supreme court that in awarding dam ages for lost limbs the remarkable advances made in mechanical limbs must be considered, hence ordered a new trial In the case of a little girl who had been awarded $8,500 for the loss of a leg, has given a boom to the artificial limb trade to which di rect attention has been called. As to the practical value of the latest rubber goods, we are told that "there's a conductor on an eastern railroad who wears an artificial arm with a rubber hand, and he holds his tickets between his rubber finger and thumb while he punches the pasteboards with his nat ural hand. The fle3h and blood limb tires duriVig this operation, but the artificial one Is always fresh. A tel egraph operator uses a rubber hand In receiving and transmitting mes sages, and he isn't troubled with writ er's cramp or telegrapher's paralysis, li farmer in a southern state writes that he can pick as much cotton and saw as much wood in a Oar as any one, although he wears a wooden leg, and a signalman In the employ of a large railroad avers that he can at tend to his duties In an acceptable manner with a cork lower limb." There is no evidence that Judse Garrison, who wrote tho opinion, holds any stock in an artificial limb factory, and the wonder is how he cama to know that substitute arms, legs and feet -were so near the real thing that they' must be considered in law, if not quite as good, as a palliative In the application of damages. "The world do move!" A California judge has decided that a woman drawn upon a jury is fully competent to servo. If her gray mat ter was net tip to the average Jury gray, she would indeed be a low downer. The Virginia coroner's verdict: "Died from an overdose of whiskey," Is not so interpretable as one would think. Some old topers say he must have drowned himself in it- ABANDON GRADUA- TIONS. Somerville Is the first large New England city In which a strong move ment has boon made to abolish gram mar school graduations because of the extra expense to parents and the pro tests against the movement are cer tainly significant? since 1,400 residents have signed petitions to have the graduation day exercises continued.. The plea for the change is based upon the statements that the extrava gance of dress and ambition to keep up overburdens one class, while the unhnnnines exnerieneed bv rjunils whose parents are not able to enter the competition is wrong and lnde fensible. A Boston paper, commenting upon the issue, says: "Tile purpose in view might, as sug gvsied by u member of the Somerville hchool bonrd. be accomplished by mak ing graduation a simple affair and limiting-, as has been done in higher institutions, expenditures for clothes. Abolition of graduation is undesirable in that it would wipe out one of the few red-letter days in many lives. To parents who have gladly suffered that their children might have modest ed ucational advantages, it Is an occasion of unselfish pride. With many pupils it puts a period to school days, mark ing a sum of definite achievement. Kxpense may be reduced, and cer emony profitably curtailed, but formal graduation itself should be retained for what it means to many." The trouble is not with the gradua tion exercises, but the senseless pride in which there is no merit and which might very properly be curbed. j t SHOWING SIGNS OF WEAKNESS. The persistent opponents of Speaker Cannon seem to be gaining over him in public sentiment at the west. He is not only charged with abuse of power, but with having made all kinds of political combinations to retain it under his system of political rewards and punishments in the house. The Chicago News, reviewing tho contro versy between Cannon and the insurg ents as it stands today, says: "When a man of the Ciinnon type begins to scold and. fume it Is a pretty good sign that he realizes his political downfall is near. "Leaders in politics who abuse their power in disregard of the popular will and the public welfare ordinarily treat public criticism with silent contempt. I Cannon now i3 Irritated and worried. It is extraordinary that he should make of a meeting of mayors called ,v to discuss municipal problems an oc- ,wf.ni, m, speaker of the national house of rep resentatives and abusing those who have sought to mitigate the bleak tyranny of his rule. "Speaker Cannon wants Senators Cummins and LaKollette and the other insurgents thrust out of the republican party. He wants to know whether twenty insurgent representatives and seven insurgsift senators shall speak for the entire republican organization. "That, however, is not precisely the question. Instead, the question is whether these insurgents or the Can-non-Aldrich coterie represent correct- ly the sentiment of the nation. Very likely, when the matter comes to an issue before the people, Mr. Cannon will find they are not In sympathy with him or his methods. "The indications are that Joseph Cannon is serving his last term as speaker of the national house of rep resentatives. He has had his day." EDITORIAL NOTES. This proverb comes from Toledo: Opportunity never knocks at the side door of a saloon! Tho man who likes to have his way too often is a vexation of spirit in any business or family. Happy thought for today: Do not be surprised when you meet a per son wearing better clothes than man ners. Tkie fact that a hundred Nicarag uane have been killed in battle Just The report that the Japanese banks have increased their gold deposits by JS.'i.OOO.IiOO in the past year, tells for prosperity there. What Korea will suffer for the slay ing of Prince Ito is awful to contem- Mate. How the folly of one rash man Bt'ts back a country. When a hunter estimates the weight of a deer he has killed no buteher wants to buy it at his figures, if ho offers it at half-price. The Bank of England has raised the discount rate to live per cent., but that will not deter American borrow er's who need the money. The Vermont press 13 complaining that the hunters are killing the does, find express the hope that the next legislature will protect them. The osteopaths of New Jersey are j being called upon by the press to rub out a political bone of contention up- on which the "regulars" have failed. A western cartoonist Is charged with drawing his milkmaids on the wrong side of the cow, and warned that by and by he will cause a fa tality.

THE MAID AND THE MAST V -J "I know it isn't the usual thing nowadays for a man to ask the consent of his prospective father-in-law," be gan James Bradley, as Roger Wallace, the veteran shipbuilder, looked up from his desk and swung; around in hia of fice chair, "but Sue and I thought it would be much pleasanter if you ac knowledge your full and free consent Not but that I intend to marry her, anyway," he finished half defiantly. "Right you are, my boy," answered the old gentleman. "I like your talk and I like you, but I have been think ing for some time that you are not developing into quite the shrewd busi ness man that I expected. Bring your wits and talents into play! Show us a little of your mettle! Here, I'll leave it as the story books do: Take the wind out of my sails once in a business deal and I'll give you my daughter and any house In town you may select. Isn't that fair?" "It sounds fair enough," agreed the younger man, "but that's too tough a proposition for me. I am doing well in my lumber business well enough to support a wife in good shape." "No doubt! No doubt!" assented the shipbuilder. "But speaking of lumber reminds me of something In your line that I want. I want another mast for the Columbia that is ten feet longer than the one you secured for the Eagle." "But. Mr. Wallace," demurred Brad ey, "that was the longest I've been able to get for five years, and I'll war rant there isn't Its equal in the state that can be had- for love or money. Those who have the goods simply will not sell. I know, for I've tried them over and over again." "I tell you I must have It! And I shall depend upon you to find It. Have it here Inside of a week and I'll write you a check for $500." "Have you any idea where such a tree grows?" asked Bradley, consider ably discouraged. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR- Debts and Debts. Mr. Editor: Your editorial In The Bulletin, October 23, "Indifferentism," was a thought producer. Why is the average business man and wage earn er so indifferent as to the laws under which they live? The reply to this question by "a leading citizen": "Be cause everybody is devot5d tS getting the dollar!" Is not the only reason. Is not ignorance more the cause of this "ism" than the "devotion to getting the dollar"? Is it not the ignorance of the reason why people are driven to devote so much time to obtain the dollar? The dollar for money) is a primal factor of civilization, and an absolute ne cessity. A few days ago I was look ing over a government document of 1S9S, entitled "Report of Real Estate Mortgages in the United States" for 1890. Say, Mr. Editor, would not a man be liable to be somewhat cured of "Indifferentism." if he was doing a business In which his Indebtedness was increasing three times as fast as his ability to pay? If he knew nothing of how this was being done", would it not be ignorance of his bus iness? Then Is not the cause of this indifferentism to public duties ignor ance of present conditions, as they exist under present laws, rather than the desire to get the dollar for what the dollar will bring? How many of your readers know that on January 1, 1890, there was a total debt in the United States of $19,027,170,546? Of this debt there was a rral es tate mortgage debt alone of $6,019. 679,985, leaving a balance of all other debts $13,007,490,561. How many of them know that on January 1, 18S0, the real estate mortgage debt was on ly $2,294,87'0,0S8, an increase of $3,524, 809,897, an Increase of 141.28 per cent, in ten years, from 1880 to 1890? That is to say, the debt (mortgage debt) of 1SS0 doubled once and nearly half doubled again in ten years. How many know that the total amount of wealth on January 1, 1890. in the Unit ed States was $65,131,497,791? Accord ing to this report from 1RS0 to 1890 the wealth (total) increased only 49.24 per cent, or a little less than half, while the population Increased only 24.86 per cent., or less than one-quarter. Th"n. as a base from which to compute up to date, we have the fol lowing during those ten years. The real estate mortgage debt alone in creased nearly three times as fast as the wealth with which to pay, and nearly six times as fast as the popu lation that produced the wealth to pay with. Remember, this statement takes no cognizance of over 13 billion dol lars of other forms of debt. Mr. Edi tor, place uny business man or busi ness corporation under such condi tions, doing business, would he not be Justified in devoting a good share of his time, even to laying awake nights planning some way to get the dollars to save him from bankruptcy? Well, if this be true, and fio one can re fute it, ,is not every man justified In "getting the dollar" to meet this in creasing debt and interest, for Interest must go with this debt, and increase, as the debt increases? Then again I ask, is it not Ignor ance of this condition more the cause of the Indifferentism? A man in this condition would not be Indif ferent unless he was ignorant of his condition. Let us follow up this ratio of increase from 1890 to 1900, an i "No, not the slightest. But get it anywhere and in any way and I'll ask no questions. Should any trouble fol low, I'll stand behind you. Remem ber, there'll be no questions asked." In Just two days the tall, smooth trunk of a lordly tTee was shipped down to the works, where at once it became the center of attraction. It was a beautiful sight. The old ship builder proudly measured! its precious length himself and found it six feet longer than he had dared to ask. "Splendid! Splendid!" he exclaimed excitedly. "Where vin the world did you find such a beauty, Bradley? It's by. far the besi I've had my eyes on for twenty years. Where did you get it?" "No questions asked." returned Bradley with a slow smile as he walked away. Several days passed, but Roger Wal lace could not forget the incident, and the more lie thought about it the more curious he grew. Finally he sent for Bradley, and as the young man en tered the office Wallace said: "Brad ley, for once in. my life I'll admit I'm consumed with curiosity. Of course, you needn't answer unless you choose, but as a special favor I wish you would tell me where you got that splendid tree." "Cut it oft your choice back lot," answered Bradley. "What!" thundered the old man, springing to his feet. "Don't you know that lot Is the apple df my eye?" But something in the young man's face caused him to wheel abruptly to the window, where he stood gazin"- out and pulling savagely at his long gray mus tache. Finally he turned back with his usual pleasant smile and remarked with a little catch in his voice: "Boy, you've roade good sooner than I expected, for I'll admit that's one on me. Come in again as soon as you and Sue find a house that suits." Boston Post. other ten years. True, there was no census taken of the indebtedness from 1890 to 1900, but there was of the population and wealth, and the per cent was about the same as the pre vious ten years. Computing from these official figures, and making the increase of debt only 140 per cent., which is less than the official figures, and 0 per cent, increase of wealth, which is more than the official figures, we find the real estate mortgage debt on the first day of January. 1900, $14,447, 231,964. The total amount of wealth would be $97,697,246,686. There must be come cause, hidden or otherwise, to produce such an abnormal condi tion. This being true, this must con tinue until the cause is found and re moved. We must conclude from this, that as there has been no visible change, at least no radical change in the laws, that this Increase is mov ing along in the same old rut. This may be one of the obstacles that is retarding the progress of the prosper ity that has been so long promised, but appears to be moving slowly "our way" at least. I had thought to ask Mr. Talcott to figure out Just how long it would take this mortgage debt to get abreast of the entire wealth of the nation, but I thought better of it, as the last I heard from him he ap parently had just returned from the North pole. Next year (1910) another census is to be taken, but not on mortgage debt. But we can figure on the old ratio of 140 per cent, on the debt and 50 per cent, on the weath. On the first day of January. 1910, this debt would be $.14,673,356,713. ..The wealth would be $145,545,870,029.' On January 1, 1920. the debt would be $83,216,056,111. while the wealth would be $218,318,805,043. On January 1, 1930, the debt would be $205,718,734, C66, while the wealth would be $327, 478,207,564. I will now "draw the cur tain" and let Mr. Talcott or someone figure out how it will stand in 1940, for our children and grandchildren to con tend with to say nothing .of the mil lions now on the stage, for 1930 is only 20 years ahead. But whoever cares to know and cares to figure It out will find that in 1940 the debt will be, as the old settler said by the dog and the bear, "the dog, had a leetle advantage, he was a leetle ahead." The question Is, if this be true, will it be possible for the people to stand it? And can any one dispute that this condition i3 not approximately true? That there was a cause no one will de ny, that made such a disproportion in the rate of increase between the debt and the wealth. It certainly could not have been a natural cause that pro duced it. Not being natural it must have been artificial. Being artificial It was removable.

Until then these figures must stand as facts based on government statistics. Where Is the man that can produce the proof that the cause has been removed? If these figures are correct, is there any won der that there is a deficit In the post office department of twenty millions of dollars? Is there any surprise that the government was behind about 100 millions of dollars? Knowing these facts, can you wonder- there is so much "graft" going on, some of it exposed, and more of it not yet known?

Primitive Methods. Mr. Editor: I write to ask you, why the East Great Plain school don't advertise their school meetings as the city schools do. I have asked a num ber of the taxpayers and they tell me that a notice on the door of the school or on a post near the school door is all that is needed to cover the law. Now, do you expect all the taxpayers to get out of their carriages and walk up to the schoolhouse to read the no tice? I have lived here 13 years and have known of one school meeting. And a neighbor told of that one and I attended, and now I have a tax bill sent me and I object to it. as I have not had notice of any meetings. I object to being taxed without representation, for that is tyranny that our fore fathers fought against Had I been to any of the meetings where they put so much expense on the schoolhouse, I shouid have suggested a lamp in front of the schoolhouse, to be lit. so one could find the schoolhouse door of a dark night. The meeting that I at tended I could only find my way by the little light coming from the crack of the door. Let the women have a vote; they know more about the needs of children than men. A TAXPAYER. Norwich, October 27, 1909. Buying Up Small Towns. The town of Taft in the state of Texas, which has been entertaining the president of the United States, is the property of his brother, Charles P. Taft. The residents are dependent up on him for their employment, and it is recorded that at the federal election last November every vote in the town was cast for the successful republican candidate. The town of Taft in the state of Kansas has just been sold under the hammer to a prosperous farmer. It brought in the open market the sum of $2,620 and the sale took everything in It The sale had been widely adver tised and brought together many bid ders. Its original owner became the victim of the free rural delivery which wiped his possession off the post office map, and by the prosperity of the farmers In the vicinity, who have taken to the enjoyment of automobiles. The trade of Shipton went to the town of Salina. It is the intention of he new owner to make the town live up to its dignity. The private ownership of towns has its curiosity-provoking sides. We as sume that they are towns In fact as well as in name and that they possess the rights which attach to townships. There are no privately owned towns in Connecticut, but it was neverthe less the humorous idea of the late James G. Batterson of Hartford that it would not be impossible for the heavily taxed public corporations to buy enough email towns to hold the balance of power in the state legisla ture. In his Inimitable vein he would grow eloquent over the possibilities, even to the effect it might have upon the ascendancy of the small towni in their control of the political life of the state. It would be very amusing to see the New York, New Haven Hartford Railroad company take over the own ership of Union, population 428; the Consolidated trolley company seize Marlborough, -population 322; the Southern New England company ab sorb Andover, population 385; the Aetna life insurance company, Scot land, population 171, and so on. There are a number of small towns In the state which might be boueht un by the public service corporations. They have two representative, is n m!o. In the house of representatives and many other independent privileges. There are great possibilities In the private ownership of towns should corpora tions get wealthy and sassy enough. It is an amusing subject. New Haven Journal-Courier. A Substitute Commandment. Some changes in the Ten Command ments to make them apply to modern conditions are advocated by Thomas X. Carver, professor of economics at Harvard university. Professor Carver in particular wants an entirely new commandment dealing with the liquor habit. He would have It taken the place of the commandment which reads: "Thou shnlt not take the name of the Lord thy God In vain." "The employment of the word God and like blasphemies as they are ut tered today have lost their old-time significance." said Professor Carver today. "They are employed many times from pure force of habit or an unthinking utterance of the first sen tence that cornea to one's lips, and are demonstrative of one who pos sesses a dwarfed vocabulary, and a lack of breeding or good tsste. "We see on the other side the in tense cravin" for stimulants holding many people who have our lives In their keeping, and once In the pos session of their desires, danger hangs over our being like the sword of Dam ocles. Drinking is a hindrance to any man who is placed In a position Of trust in these times of highly spe cialized life." His substitute commandment would read: "Thou shalt not drink to drunk enness nor bewilder thyself with strong drink." Cambridge Despatch in the New York Times.

Kenyon, through Dixon Rathbun, his attorneys, has brought suit against the town of Westerly to recover SJ.Orto damages, for injuries re ceived by reason of a defective high way. The complaint alleges that the plaintiff was driving on the Potter Hill road, and in passing the auto mobile of Charles l. Chapman, the horse shied, went Into a ditch at the side of the road and the injuries re sulted. Mr. Kenyon's left leg was broken, he was also severely cut and bruised and permanently injured. It is claimed that the ditch wherein Mr. Kenyon was injured is five feet below the level of the road and was not protected by a guard rail, but was hidden from view by a w ild growth of brush.

SI Fined for Assault Circular Williams in the Third district court at Westerly Thursday, charged With an assault upon Mallory O. Main, en gineer of the Edwards Line company plant at Canonchet, in the town of Hopkinton. There were no lawyers in the trial of the case, both com plainant and accused notifying the court that they would get along with out the aid or expense of lawyers. The testimony showed that Mrs. Wheeler called at the engine room of the line plant and struck Mr. Main, sending him against the main belt with force sufficient to slip (t from the pulley and stop the motive power of the plant. She struck Mr. Main sev eral times and was finally removed from the premises. Mrs. Wheeler in defense stated that Main had "lifted" one of her children and that she was able to do the cor recting without his assistance. She went to the line works, she said, and had a mix-up with Main, but she did not remember striking him. Mrs. Wheeler was found guilty of the charge and she paid a fine of $5 and costs, a total of $17.50. There ia a report that there it te be prosecution of the alleged illegal sale of liquor by private individuals, who are not satisfied with what is being accomplished by the police au thorities in that respect in the con fines of the town of Westerly. It is said that a local lawyer has been re tained as special prosecutor, and that the outside expenses will be borne by a semi-official organized body formed for the purpose of -bettering the moral welfare of the town. The annual dinner of the Young Men's Republican club of Westerly, in the Dixon house Thursday night was a pleasurable event and largely at tended not only by members of the club but by many other republican voters of the town and some from other places.

Landlord Segar fur nished a turkey supper and the serv ice was In every way satisfactory. The event was arranged by the of ficers of the club, who are; George B.

He introduced Judge Hurke as toast master. He made a speech that teem ed with eloquence and praise for the republican party, and paid a glowing tribute to Governor Utter as the lead ing republican and the best political orator in the state. He introduced Tracy W. Gardner of Providence who after" lauding the good work of the Westerly club advocated continued fealty to party and urged every re publican in Westerly to vote for the three constitutional amendments. Samuel H. Davis was the next sneak er, giving an able address, taking in detail the everlasting principles of the party. He said it" was perhaps well for young men of a patriotic strain to say they would die lor their country, but he believed a better way would be to live for their country and give to the town, state and county the ijest that was in them. Richard W. Jennings spoke next, on general state issues, defining them in detail, and urged the voters of West erly to increase their usually large ma jority. He rebuked the democratic party in the state for its inconsist ency. Kx-Governor Utter was the last speaker and said he was clad of the opportunity to tell the club members how he happened to be present. lie said t ha t a member of his family, the president of the club, had asked hini to i-iim just to 1111 in. The governor said as he weighed 170 pounds and the member of his family weighed IS", he f"lt overpowered. The governor made a characteristic and able speech, lie kn-w ali the candidates intimately and indorsed each, and ureed the re publicans of Westerly to make the majority large enough to elect all re publican candidates. He explained the trio amendment. He closed by urging the club members to show the good that was in them. It was past midnight when the meeting was adjourned.

ELEVENJfEARS TES1 Visitors to the exhibition recently he'd in Philadelphia to acouaint the public with the dangers of Tuberculo sis and to demonstrate the methods of prevention and the cure of Con sumption, were surprised when in formed at the Bureau of Information that no. statement of cures whs at hand. In the past few years immense sums have leen spent and many per sons treated by the cgs. milk and fresh air advocates. yet curiously, cured cases are rarely found. That Eckman's Alterative positively cures Tuberculosis (Consumption) and stands the test of time is proven by the following letters: Philadelphia, Pa.. .March 25. IMS.

Greenwich dentists, several of whom are known in their profession through out -the east, and practically all of whom number wealthy summer resi dents from New York among their patients, have agreed upon a rate. The result Is "announced thus: "Teeth filled at the rate of ten cents a tooth." It seems like a great opportunity, and it- is. but there are conditions. The patient must be a resident or Greenwich and must present himself at the-rooms of the United Workers on certain days of the week in order to have the work done. In other words, the United Work ers,, which is an organization com posed of wealthy women have inter ested the dentists in the work among the poor to the extent that they have formed an association and have offered to care for the ponr children's teeth. The work is intended to be done free and ten cents a tooth is charged in order that the children and their parents may feel that they are not the recipients of charity, hut are paying in a measure for what thov get. Scores of children, have been treated so that they may go throus:h life with good teeth instead of having them ruined before thpy reach the age when they can earn menoye enough to pay for treatment. This Is only one phase of the I'nit d Workers' club. They have estab lished a boys' club, with normal train ing school: a girls' club, a sewing club, a day nursery, a visitation com mittee and an employment bureau. Their president is Mrs. George E. Nichols. Not Her Firrt Purchase. This is a baby story they toll out at Belolt: A woman called at a dry goods store to look at some baby dressed. The clprk showed her a line valued at. $5 each, and talked volubly about "how proud" the mother ought to be over the baby. He' suggested that .possibly she might want a more expensive dre.ss. But the mother did not seem to "enthuse" a- bit over the clerk's gush. "How many children have you?" asked the clprk. cautiously. "Oh. this is the eleventh." she re plied, carefully scanning the price tags. And out came a line of baby dresses with a more modest list of prices. SORE EVES CURED Eye-Balls and Lids Became Terribly Inflamed Was Unable to Go About All Treatments Failed. CUTICURA PROVED SUCCESSFUL About two years ago my eyes got in such a-condition that I was unable to go about. They were terribly inflamed, both the balls and lids.

This Woman and This Man. At the Broadway theater this even ing will be seen This Woman and This Man, which is as sweet and fragrant as an old-fashioned rose garden. The sweet, gentle, loving, self-sacrificing manner of the deserted woman.- her scorn for the man who deserted her, are finely portrayed by Minnie Victor son. A quiet dignity, an appreciation of the value of the things in this world that money cannot buy. the exaltation of her love above sordid pelf pervade the character of the play, and to one in love with the fine beauties of life the play will make a strong appeal with its opulence of sentiment. BREED THEATER. Hudson-Fulton Naval Parade, Feature Motion Picture. The ever progressive Breed theater has secured for its feature picture this week the Hudson-Fulton naval parade, a picture wondrous in the extent of its scope and variety and as pictorially perfect as any motion picture ever pre sented at the Breed. The picture opens with the launching of the Clermont, the famous replica of the original Ful ton boat. This scene is very perfect, giving one a close view of the interest ing boat, also a close view of it on the way under its own steam with the cu rious paddles. There are also many views of the Half Moon, showing it under sail and from all of the desira ble points of view. The parade i shown in all its entirety, including the foreign battleships saluting, the tor pedo boats, the police and life saving boats, the last named being shown in saving the occupants of an overturned boat, the big liners, including Lusitan ia, and all of th eexcursion steamers, and the final review of the entire fleet while saluting passing steamers. Un deniably good dramatic, pictures are shown, also a picture of Peary's boat, Roosevelt, at the, dock and preparing to sail. Miss Florence" Wolcott. the prima donna of the Breed, scored a big hU with her rendition of toe Nightingale's Trill, a difficult coloratura song by Wilhelm Ganze, winning a hearty en core, to which she responded with Liza Lehmann's If 1 Built a World for You.
