 Having shown the greasy meehan- ics" and ihe "horny-handed sons of toll" how Congressman Plgott has nobly looked after their interests will the Register tell those of his constituents who are lucky enough to have good in- comes how Congressman Plgott has helped them? VIII 1t tell them how a vote for the oppressive. the odlous and the i,-breeding Income tax Is benefit 10 them? Will 1t explain 10 them how Congressman Pigott was helping them when he voted to reduce their resources and make them mark for the tax n- quisltor?
 Having done this will the Register show what Congressman Pigott has done for the district anyway and how he has established any claim to another term. or even Justified his election to one term? Can the Register make 1t ap- pear that Congressman Plgott has been n boon 10 his constituents, or does 1t feel obliged 10 snicker and chortle in the hope of thereby escaping inconvenient and troublesome questions?

cream colored woolen suiting trimmed
 with lace insertion and ribbon. The
 skirt Is pleated to the skirt band and
 shows one row of insertion threaded
 with narrow satin ribbon. The blouse
 is laid in pleats front and back and has
 a square yoke of the same or contrast
 ing material finished with lace and
 ribbon, with ribbon bows on the shoul-
 ders. The sleeves may be long or ter
 minate at the elbow, according to fan
 cy, and are garnished with lace epau- lettes, insertion and ribbon.
 Consideration of imported gowns shows that the English sleeve of the moment is balloon-like to the elbow, when it narrows quickly to a tight fit, finishing quite plain and tight at the
 wrist. The French sleeve is a good deal the same, except that the narrow portion below the elbow is relieved by
 insertions of tiny puffs of lace or bands of ribbon, and the wrist is never left without some little relief of ribbon, lace or frill. A new sort of sleeve
 which is gaining liking here is simply enormous from the low shoulder seam to the elbow and buttons skin tight from elbow to wrist, Sleeves of winter dresses will employ some unusual com binations, for lace and fur are again to be popular for elaborate gowns. and they will be seen together on the sleeves, FLORETTE.

4 STROSG TICKET.

The Republicans of New Haven have nominated a strong ticket for senator and representatives. MT. Johnson. the nominee for senator. Is well acquainted with public matters and has shown power and skill in dealing with them He is popular man and has the con- fidence of his fellow-citizens. He will make a good run and If elected will make a good senator. A strong and united pull will be made for him.
 Messrs. Trowbridge and Barnes, the nominees for representatives, are just the men needed in this emergency. We regret to hear that there is some doubt that either will accept the nomination. We hope that this doubt is not well founded, and that both will consent to run, though neither of them has de. sired or sought the nomination.

NOT NOW, yEIGHBOR,

Our dear young friend the Register makes very generous offer to us. It offers to weep tears now if such weep ing will please us. and it proposes a weeping bee with music on the flute by MT. Coffin. We appreciate the kind Illness that prompted this offer. In fact we are touched" by it. But we will not ask the Register to "weep tears" now, even though We think they would become it better than artificial mirth. And the time for a "weeping bee" has not yet come. There will be a weeping bee" in the Register office on the evening of November G. Brother Pigott will take part in it. And as the tears flow and the ululations resound through the air the weepers and the ululators will have their long and sor. rowful ears assailed by strains of music telling of victory and joy. Those strains will emerge from the flute of MT. Coffin. It will then please us tc see the Register weep tears" We can wait until then.

to the point: "A gentleman one day, while in his library in London. was dis turbed by strange cat coming down the chimney and jumping upon his knees, as if to claim protection. It was much wounded and covered with soot. The kind and benevolent man all lowed the animal to remain on his lap, soothing 1t with his voice. and permit ting 1t to clean itself and to lick It's wounds. The cat evidently came to find a friend, and she found one. The attachment was mutual. The cat fol- lowed her protector wherever he went, accompanied him into Italy and vari- ous other places, and lost that fond ness for localities which is so peculiar to these animals"
 It Is difficult to get at the longevity of cats, for. although they are said to have nine lives, they have a precarious existence. In the sphere of my own observation have two instances, thor oughly verified, in one of which the cat lived to be twenty-one years old, and in the other twenty-five years. Both died a natural death, and I pathetically at- tended the funerals, and therefore can testify that they went down to the grave "honored and lamented."
