Well Known Ludlow Physician Dies
Suddenly.

DR.. George E. Lane, one of Lud-
lows leading physicians, died sud-
denly late Thursday night, Nov. I,
while engaged upon the case of
George E. Dotev, the freight brake
man who was fatally injured at
Healdville.
DR.. Lane was apparently in usual
health and responded promptly when
a call came from the Goddard house
to attend Dotey. After consultation
an operation was decided upon, and
the doctor started for his office to get
his instruments; but, not feeling
right, he returned and sent his son.
His breathing became labored and
he went out INTO the air and sat
down on the steps in front of
Browns block. Friends carried
him into Rocks barber shop, where
he expired in a few moments.

A herd OF five deer got on the

track between South Wallingford

due in Rutland at S.25 o'clock came
along and actually "slowed up" for

The Twicc-a-wcek edition of the
New York World has been converted
into the Thricc-a-wcek. 1t furnishes
3 papers of 6 pages apiece, or
eighteen pages every week, at the

gives $50 papers year for one dol

not only much larger than any week

fact it combines all the crisp, fresh

withstanding the increase in the

According to the best authorities
in the business world, wheels are
now turning in two-thirds of the
mills of the country. Complaints
come from some manufacturers, but
they for the most part are using an
tiquated machinery, fit only for the
junk shop, or else are making low
grade staples or goods with which
the market is already glutted. And
these manufactures are the ones who
are loudest in their claims tor sup
port from the government in the
name of "protection." a cores
pondent of a trade paper recently
made trip through the Pawtucket
valley, Rhode Island, inspecting the
mills of that section, which arc ac-
cording to his description, almost
without exception antiquated struct-
ures and years behind the times in
the matter of equipment. 1t has
been suggested that manufacturers
can now spend the money, which
has heretofore been given for the
support of protectionist lobby, in
equipping their factories with mod
ern machinery and appliances which
would better fit them for competition
in the markets of the world. There
seems to be room for improvement
in the particular section of New
England referred to. and there is
little probability of the restoration of
atariff which will keep out of date
machinery in motion year after year.

According to recent figures there
is ample opportunity for Il reduction
in government expenses by wiping
out useless and expensive offices,
notably some of those attached to
the customs served. For instance,
at the port of Natchez, Miss, the
salary of the collector is $500 year,
and the receipts last year amounted
to $I.Io. The collector at Coos
Bay, Oregon, is paid $1,000 per
annum while the receipts at that
port for the year footed up to $I.7l.
There is an appalling waste in all
branches of the public service, but
this opportunity to begin Il reform
seem extraordinarily ripe and tempt
ing.
Ex-senator Edmunds seems to
think, contrary to the opinions of

that the handling of international
questions in which the United States
arc interested can be safely left to

lac said, according to the report of

had ever been found lacking i'll
