REPRESENTATIVE WILSON, of Yves

Virginia, prospective chairman of
the ways and means committee of
the house, favors the repeal of the 10
per cent tax on state bank circula-
ton, as practical compromise with
silver champions of the south and
west. He believes that the repeal of
the Sherman law can be brought
about if accompanied with the other
repeal, and that no injury will result
from the utterance of state bank
notes. They would not be legal
tender and it would be at the option
of any one whether they accepted
them or not, and if they circulated
at all they would need to be
above suspicion. Mr.. Wilson does
which might be issued under
state authority would have
the .swild cat" character possessed
by that issued before the war. 1t
would satisfy the demand existing in
certain localities for more currency
and would thus gain votes for the re-
peal of the Sherman law The lat
ter is the more dangerous of the two.
1t threatens he thinks. the standard of
value. whereas state currency would
bring about financial disturbance
only in particular sections and in
stances if at all. The main none
tary circulation of the country would
remain as now, guaranteed by the
United States. The state currency
would be generally confined to local
circulation and would return to the
banks issuing it if not needed by the
commerce of the country. This is
the theory on which state currency is
defined. 1t seems better than the
Sherman law in the prospect it offers.

THE KILAUEA VOLCANO.

Its Condition Reported Safe for VS.
itors From Honolulu.
The floor of Kilauea is at certain
periods subject toover6ow by floods of
fresh lava from Halemaumau, which
will probably destroy large sections of
the aforesaid trail, necessitating much
labor in renewing it. This can hardly
occur under two years from now, as 1t
will proba bly, take that length of time
fer the level of the molten lake to
work up the 200 feet or more necessary
to enable it to discharge itself on the
main floor. During the last period of
overflow, in 1ss9-so. many thousands
of acres of the main floor of Kilauea
received fresh coatings of lava In
the immediate vicinity of Halemau-
nau pit the lava coatings were piled
to a thickness of from twenty to fifty
feet
Meantime, the lake. 500 feet in di-
ameter. is overlooking every few days
upon the lava floor around it, which IS,
perhaps. $50 feet lower than the brink
of the circular pit. which is 2,4O0 feet
in diameter. The American minister,
who was there recently. counted
twelve fire fountains playing in the
lake at one time. In April last we
measured the largest fountain with an
instrument. The below, pulsating
thrice minute, was fifty feet in
diameter, and thirty feet high. Its
action was steady and incessant dur
ing the week we were there. Other
fountains were more furious, but in
termittent. On the whole. the present
aspect of the volcano is unusually sat
isfactory for observation by visitors.

Do Animals Dream?

have two ANIMALS at home that
dream and talk in their sleep very
much as do human beings. One is a
bloodhound and the other . canary.
Late the other night. when l got home
from work, heard . peculiar muffaed
sound coming from the birds cage.
Stepping up to it I found it was the
bird singing. He had his head neatly
tucked under his wing, but was sing
ing away on one Of his favorite songs
just as if the sun was shining and he
was overjoyed to see it. Frequently
during the night or day the dog men
toned will begin to growl or bark in
his sleep. Then again he will wag his
tail and show every sign of pleasure at
some thought passing through his
brain, all the time being sound ssleen

TAKE TREATMENT NOW!
Time and again the physicians of
the Scott Medical Institute have adj
vised patients in desperate stages of
catarrhal trouble to wait until sum-
mer before taking treatment. Time
and again they have urged the neces-
sity of taking treatment while the
weather was favorable to a cure.
Now is that time. Those who suf-
fer from catarrh should take advan-
tage of all the influences that operate
now in favor of cure. They should
not put off treatment until next win
ter's stormy days, but should pru-
IDENTIFY mend their roof while the
sun shines" Now is the time. and
the opportunity is just what is de-
sired for the worst cases. Do not let
it 90 by. but place yourself under
treatment of the Scott Medical 1nsti-
tute, and have done for you in the
next month or two what might not
be possible to do until next summer.

PICTURES AND FRAMES.

Beautify your homes by adorning the walls with handsome pictures. None so poor but that they can buy pictures or get those that they have framed at the low prices they are being sold for by Northrop, the art dealer, 30 John street, Bridgeport. We noticed some 16 by 20 engravings in five-inch white and gold frames, marked 99 cents. These are a marvel of cheapness, although not so finely finished as those made to order. If you take your pictures there on your ar rival in the city you can have them to take home in the afternoon. No. 31 John street is only few steps from Main street.

Since January l have sold 930 eggs, and have 51 eggs remaining in the house, making total of l060 eggs. I have kept no record of the number of egg used in the house, but we must have averaged fully dozen per week, which would make a sum total of over 1900 eggs laid during said time. I would like to hear from any one that can beat this record. -[William G. Hard.

Strangers passing through the '' Vile and up through Weekeepeemee district notice several large dilapidated buildings locally known as the old paper mill. Now the busy hum of machinery is heard no more. The doors creak on rusty hinges and the roof lets in the sunshine and the rain. The rank grass and weeds grow in summer in the spacious yards and the deserted buildings echo to the shouts of happy children who play their favorite games, their
 ACTIVITY OFTEN HEIGHTENED by an occasional rusty nail in their feet from the falling shingle and siding. How many happy associations cling to these old ruins! Many who have passed away gained competence there away back 30 years ago or before the mill was used for the manufacture of felt cloth by one HotchkiSs, one of the family from whom this hamlet takes it's name. Later the plant was
 BOUGHT BY ANsoN KNOX,
 who associated with his son Levi, father of A. E. Knox, founder of the Woodbury Reporter, who fitted the mill up with straw board machinery and began the manufacture of box board. The dwell ing house now occupied George Knox was the wool store house of the Hotch- kiss's, which the elder Knox moved across the ditch. The knox's, father and son, found their venture remunerat- i've and eventually sold out to Thompson Brothers, who also made money and RETIRED FROM BUSINESS.
 G. F. Jackson was the next owner, who for several years did fairly paying bus mess. MT Jackson traded the plant with c. Winton of Bristol for a farm. This venture did not prove fortunate for Mir Winton. The high price of straw and the introduction of cheaper material in the making of straw board so reduced the price that MT Winton could not compete with the market.
 MIR wINToN SPENT HUNDREDS
 of dollars in repairing the buildings, for which he has never realized any returns. Now the dam has washed away and it is only a matter of time when the old build ings will fall and rot away. MT Winton, however, is doing prosperous business, owning and operating feed mill farther up the stream. He also carries on the feed, flour and coal business in Wood bury and everyone whishes him success. We would also add that there is
 BUT TWO MILLS IN THE STATE
 that manufactures air dried straw board. One is the old Tait mill in Trumbull, and } one we ran across a few years ago in , Buckland, near Willimantic.
