Presentation ot tic Trophy Won by
 Protector Hose Company at the
 Rose Hill Picnic.
 Last night Protector Hose Co.'S house was alive with amusement and good cheer. The event was the presentation of the handsome clock, which was won by the Protectors from the Brass City boys in the tug of war at the picnic on the 9th of July given by the Rose Hills. The fore man of the Rose Hills was unavoidably absent and James Donahue in few choice remarks and with pleasing tact made the presentation speech awarding to the vic tor the spells of victory. Foreman Gun ningham in his usually commendable manner accepted in behalf of the Protec- tors the trophy, which will be an orna- ment in the parlors of the Protectors. Addresses, recitations and songs then completed the pleasing programme and the midnight hour had sounded before the festivities were interrupted. John L.. Sake, J. E Johnson, J. Malone and NJ. Chatfield for the Protectors and J. Dona- hue, G. Sullivan and w. Casey for the Rose Hills formed coterie of entertainers who pleased and delighted the assembled party

Editorial Opinions Upon the Tierney-
 BrZezinSki Affair.
 Yesterdays news contained the account of the thrashing of an interruptions news paper correspondent ill Waterbury by a citizen of that place who had been one of the victims of his attacks The pugilistic honors were borne off by the citizen, who appears to have been a letter man in one respect than the correspondent represented him and in proof thereof can show the scribbler himself when he is again able to be out. It seems there was no other means of redress, as the proprietors of the alleged newspaper were irresponsible, and the citizens of Waterbury have sided with the thrasher as against the thrashed and will present him with a gold-headed cane. The newspaper man has taken his qurrel to the courts and thinks 8, ,0UO none too much as balm for his wounds.-New London Day.
 When the fool killer visits Waterbury he should kill D. H. Tierney, who has just been foolish enough to seriously as sault Editor Brzezinski of the Examiner, just because he said something in his paper that Tierney did not like. Nothing like soft solder to catch flies with, but this idea that all belligerent and wild editors must be thrashed is delusion and snare. The fact of the matter is that the crop of editors is so large in the country that nothing short of Johnstown or simi- lar disaster among editors would have any appreciable effect upon them regards numbers, or serve to put stop to their liability to throw themselves into the breach to correct supposed abuses upon the slightest provocation.- Middletown Press

Germicidos for Consumption.

It is satisfactory to know, says Research, that to some extent two germicides for consumption have been discovered, the one gaseous and the other liquid. Salicylic acid, however, appears to be the more lastingly successful. Perhaps a better germicide may be found, yet the principle of the method of treatment is quite revolutionary. In consumption the blood contains living oacilli-tubercles; and this system intro duces into the blood by injections tho microbes of salicylic acid to kill the bacilli. When tho bacilu are destroyed nature will have a chance of repairing the damage done.
