Of New Haven. the metropolis of the state. known far and wide as an educa- tional center, the seat of one of the most renowned universities in the world, owes 1t to it's dignity and self respect if not to its pride, to have a High school building to which its citi- zens can point with pride as emble- matical of their intelligence. their rank In educational progress. their public spirit and their interest in the cause of education.
 Such a building constructed in &C., cordance with modern Ideas and equipped with the most improved ap- pliances. even though 1t would involve large outlay from the municipal treasury. would. in the larger culture and increased capacity for usefulness Of her future citizens, give back to the city more than an equivalent for the outlay.
 The community more than the indi- vidual, reaps the full benefit of higher education. It is not simply for the sake of the parents and the children. not simply to afford equal opportunity for all classes to have the highest mental development of which they are capable. but lt is essential for the we'll being of the state, 1t Is the necessary means of self-protection from the mis- rule and degradation of public office. that the city should provide the best possible means for educating her fu- ture citizens.
 It Is safe to assert that no city of New England having the population of New Haven is so lamentably deficient in High school accommodations.
 The Hillhouse High school with its efficient corps of instructors has always held high rank.
 It cannot maintain the highest de- gree of efficiency under the present con- ditions. It is but just to the ambitious students who are earnestly striving to fit themselves for the duties of citizen ship, to give them at least as good ad- vantages for education as are given in other cities of the land.
 The school authorities of. New Haven stand face to face with public duty in which they are called upon to exercise a far-seeing and intelligent judgment. I trust they will act wisely and prompt ly.
 The following is the report of the principal of the High school:
 MT. Virgil G. Curtis, Superintendent of
 Public Schools:
 I have the honor of submitting to you my third annual report of the Hillhouse High school
 THE SCHOOL.
 No one, we'll informed upon the past and present conditions of the High school. will doubt for moment that the work done upon the building the past three months has, while adding no room, made vastly better CD the toi- let arrangements, @ the ventilation and heating, and (3) the facilities for teaching physics and chemistry. With so much cause for thankfulness it seems almost ungrateful to say again that we are still crowded beyond any possibility of being able to do our best work, and to point once more to the ur- gent necessity of new High school. I had hoped that this report would not have to be laid before you before the opening of school, so that the numbers below might have been verified by ac- tual count. They are, however, just as likely to be too small as too large and will not, in all probability, vary more than ten either way. r-, ... j -Iy l. Ht-I

SOUTHINGTON.

The usual amount of interest in the
 political welfare of our state will be taken by the citizens of our borough if one can judge from thepreparations
 being made by active organizers to have all our voters informed of the exact state of affairs as far as can be learned from what our representatives have been doing in congress, and it is their aim to outline the best plan for remedying the trouble so far as may be which has tended to keep our shops partially idle. The citizens here will give up two or three evenings willingly to good public speakers who may en- tighten them on political subjects and have word or two to say about the candidates for the various offices. When the next political meeting is held it would be a good plan to have quar- tet of singers furnish music and let all join the chorus This would help the speaker and make the meeting interest ing.
 The front of the National bank is be- ing painted and will look fine when the work is finished.

Miss Gill was a daughter of Thomas Gill of Berlin ave- nue and was graduate of Notre Dame convent school of Waterbury and was well liked. Her casket was covered with a light colored plush, the material of which was silk. The lining was of a still lighter color of rich silk. The white hearse used was from Meriden and was drawn by a pair of grey horses. The Children of Mary, of which society she was a member, attended the funeral and six of their number were bearers. Their names are: Misses Mary Castles, Katie Castles, Maggie Turburt, Mary Gill, Mary Duncan and Katie Wrinn. These were assisted by four young men. Two sisters of the convent attended from Waterbury. The services were conducted by the Rev. Father Doolan, pastor of St. Thomas church. The burial was inst. Thomas cemetery on Meriden avenue.
 Miss Haydock of Milldale died sud- denly at her home Wednesday morning. The trouble was about the heart. She attended religious meeting in the school house the night before. She was about forty years of age.

THE LINK THAT BREAKS.
Think a Moment and See What
 This Means for You.

The strength of a chain is only up 10 Its weakest link. So the strength of a person, whether physical or nerve strength is only up to his weakest part or organ. If your nerves are weak or your blood poor, if you suffer from in somnia or have indigestion, dyspep- sia, constipation, kidney or liver com plaint, headache. neuralgia or rheuma- tism, there is weak spot in your sys- tenn which if not cured will surely cause you to break down.
 You will never be we'll and strong until this weak place or organ is strengthened. It is fearfully danger ous to neglect any such weakness or ailment. Nobody realizes this better than Mrs. G. S. Cobb, a well-known lady, residing at S34 South st., Provi- dence, R. I.
 For five years I had been troubled with indigestion. kidney and liver complaint, severe nervous headaches and neuralgia. There was . terrible pain and pressure in my stomach from which there was no relief until vomit- ing set in, when I vomited a slimy mucous.
 After these spells I would be com pletely prostrated for three or four days Sometimes for three weeks at a time I could take no nourishment but lime water and milk. During this time lost forty pounds.
 T would have the most frightful nervous headaches for two weeks at time. A terrible, piercing pain would shoot in rapid succession through my head. There was a dreadful aching and throbbing through my back be- tween my shoulders.
 "In fact I was completely prostra- ted. tried prominent physicians and many remedies without relief, and be- came entirely discouraged. About this time I heard through a friend of pr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy and the wonderful cures it had performed.
 "I commenced using it at once and the change which took place very soon was wonderful. The terrible racking pains through my head and shoulders left me. Where could eat nothing but the lightest kinds of food can now eat anything without the slightest distress
 'The kidney and liver troubles have left me. In fact am completely cured and restored to sound and vigorous health. My friends are surprised at my wonderful cure. I thank God and Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem edy for my new life, and would say to all sufferers, gather confidence and try this great remedy and you will surely be cured"
 Oh, that every person complaining of any ailment would be guided by this sensible and valuable advice and take that wonderful medicine, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy If they only knew what a healthy and happy life awaited them after using it they would not hesitate moment,
 It will make a strong and we'll person of you just as surely as you take it. It will cure every one of those troubles and weaknesses which have bothered you so much. Just try it and see.- All doctors recommend 1t for it is a phy- sician's prescription. Dr. Greene dis covered it, the most successful sne. cialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases. He can be consulted at his office, 35 West 14th street, New York. free, personally or by letter.

not consider the tax which is imposed upon them for the support of the schools as burdensome, provided the youth of the city receive the instruc- ton and training which will fit them to bear their parts in the various walks of life. It is the earnest desire of the superintendent to conduct the schools in such a manner as to merit the com mendation of the public, and at the same time to meet the demands of the times.
 Since in each of my former reports have presented to the board and to the public the pressing demands for more room and better facilities for High school instruction; since the utter in- adequacy of the old building on Or ange street to the wants of the present time has become too obvious to require further demonstration; and inasmuch as a site has already been purchased and preliminary sketches for a new High school building have been pre- pared by the order of the district, and will be presented at the next district meeting, it may seem unnecessary and superfiuous to even make allusion to.
 But cannot refrain from again em- rhasizing the imperative nature of this domand, and putting in still another plea for prompt action.

The Postal Note.

This is the last day of the postal
note, and everywhere in these United
States it will live hereafter only in
memory. All blank forms in the
hands of postmasters are to be
shipped to Washington. where it is
supposed they will be thrown into
Uncle Sans capacious waste basket.
The postal note has found high
favor with the general public as a
means of transmitting small sums. it
being unnecessary to make out an
application for one as in the case of
money orders. Being made payable
to bearer. however. there have been
MANY complaints of loss and pay
ments to improper persons, which is
undoubtedly the reason why the
postoflice department has decided to
discontinue them.
