the many spend. their days on earth
in continuous toll; 1t causes man to
live in the future in expectancy,
rather than in the present In con.
tentment and happiness; 1t makes
slaves OF all who are compelled to la
Dor, not excepting the ablest who
maintain themselves by mental ef.
fort. The reason Is . simple one.
Such belief results in RESTRICTING
THE VOLUME or MoNEY, by confining
it to the scarce precious metals.
The prevailing impression, that
Gold is the measure Of value Is al
80 an erroneous one, as fixed stand.
ard for the measurement Of value Is
an impossibility. The only measure
there Is for value ID THE DoLLAR-not
the gold dollar, nor the silver dollar,
but the LEGAL TENDER DOLLAR, .
product OF legislation, the value Of
which is governed by its quantity or
volume, which acting In conjunction
with the law Of supply and demand,
measures Gin dollars) the MARKET
VALUE Of all property and products.
IT Is THE LRGAL VALUE OF THE DOL
LAR, NOT THE ACTUAL VALUE or THE
METAL IN IT, THAT CONSTITUTES THE
UNIT FOR THE LEGAL MEAsUREAExT
OF VALUE.
Money can only properly perform
it's beneficial functions when supplied
by the power creating It in adequate
volume, and under conditions which
make it 0btainable at . JUST interest
rate; and it follows that any restrict
ion Of the quantity Of volume below
the amount required by the actual
uses for it, WHATEVER THE PRETRxT,

SENSATIONAL STORY.
A Waterbury Man Tells Rather a Fishy
Tale in Shelton.


Tale in Shelton.
A man said to hail from Waterbury,
tells tale of assault and robbery that is
as sensational as dime novel, says the
Ansonia Sentinel. Christopher Doolan,
Thomas Sawyer and Edward 1ierney
were working at South End, this morn
ing, when they were approached by a
man whose face was horribly mutilated
and whose appearance showed that he
had been badly beaten about the face.
His shoes and hat were missing and his
clothing was torn.
He told the three men a story that
was very startling. He said that he had
been stopping at the Arlington hotel for
a day or two, having come from Water
bury. Last night, while there, and
drinking little, he had been persuaded
to enter a carriage and was driven
away. He did not know where he was
being taken but when the carriage
reached a place where there we've no
houses he was set upon by the two men
and beaten into insensibility and sup
poses that after robhing him of all the
money he had and his watch, they
threw him out of the carriage, and left
him for dead. He regained conscious
ness, this morning, and seeing the
chimneys of the houses at South End
went there to find out where he was.
He walked to Birmingham and went to
the Naugatuck depot to take the train to
Waterbury.

nut it went to Their Heads ana They
We're Arrested.
Two tramps broke into three freight
cars on the New England road at .Haw-
leyville station Thursday night and stole
silverware, cigars, champagne and other
property. The also broke into a box of
Derby hats, supplied themselves with
Youman styles and threw their old hats
in the brook. They filed two large bags
with plumber and hid them in the cellar
of neighboring barn. The scene of the
robbery was an out of the way place,
and had it not been for the champagne
they would probably have got off. They
became very drunk and aroused the at
tention of the colored farmer who owned
the barn in which they had put the bags.
He went to the station and gave an
alarm. The two tramps were taken
back to the freight car and locked in.
A wagon was sent for and five men We're
sent to guard the cars. When the wag-
ON arrived the tramps were taken out of
the car. securely bound together, and
taken to Newtown for trial.

PLEADING POVERTY.
New England Roads Reason For Not
Abolishing Bristol Crossing.

New England Roads Reason For Not
Abolishing u Bristol Crossing.
There was hearing in the superior
court at Hartford yesterday, on the de-
murrer made by the town of Bristol
against the appeal of the New York q
New England Railroad company in the
latter's appeal from the decision of the
railroad commissioners. Last March the
commissioners ordered the railroad
company to abolish the Main
street crossing in Bristol, and the
company appealed on the ground that
its financial condition was such that it
could not comply with the order. The
town demurred to the appeal and yester-
days hearing was ON this demurrer.
Attorney Pierce, representing Henry A.
Seymour, a property holder, came in
with a cross complaint alleging that
the contemplated improvements at the
crossing would result in damage to his
property. Mr. Pierce said in court that
the railroad commissioners had no right
to be heard in the matter at this stage,
as they are lower tribunal, and the
matter is now out of their hands. De-
cision was reserved.

ARRANelNe THEIR scALE.

Iron and Steel workers Preparing for
Tuesdays Convention.
PTTTsBURa, Pa, May 30. The two prin,
cipal wage committees Of the Amalga,
mated Association Of Iron and Steel
Workers are now in session in Pittsburg
on their work on the scales to be pre-.
serted to the convention, which will meet
in Pittsburg next Tuesday.
The suggestions or demands of each
lodge receive careful consideration, and
from the whole the committee will make
a conservative scale. It is entirely inn
probable that any radical changes will
be developed. The wage committee in.
variably takes into consideration the con-
dition of the market and the prospects.
