John Dillon Tells Why the Prize
 Fight was Not Pulled on.
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 It was with surprise and indignation that read in this mornings Republican the alleged statement that the intended fight between myself and Calvin Saturday night was bare-faced fake. The sport ing editor of the Republican goes on fur ther to state that the ''only thing either of them hit was a quart bottle of whiskey Now in reply to the above quoted reports of the intended fight, which should have taken place Saturday night according to mutual agreement between Calvin and myself. would state that since the very first day entered as representa- tive of local athletics to practically demonstrate the same, have never been looked upon as a fake, but in cousidera- ton to myself and the sport loving frater- nifty of Waterbury l would consider my self a very poor fake if made so little of the manly art" as to fight to finish any man for the paltry sum of $10. which was all the amount which the would be sports who desired to witness the fight were able to furnish. Oh, no am not the fake, neither Is Mir Calvin. The actual fakes are those cheap sports who expected me to make fool of myself by lowering my reputation as a person who takes more than an especial interest in the art of manly self defence. I am willing tC meet Mir Calvin at any time or place for q fight to a finish if the necessary amount of money is guaranteed, and furnished to the victor.

Scientific Fairies.

SCichIAuC FaAfAeSs
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 As John J. Audubon, by his accurate descriptions and faultleSs brush work pre-. served from irrecoverable loss records of bird life long since extinct, so Shskes- peare in his Midsummer Nights Dream" has saved from oblivion fairy tribe which. "once upon time" was numerous in the imaginations of the people. True the little creatures lived elsewhere than in Shakespeare's writings. but what other writer could have made a record that would have stood the coldness of modern realism Those who love fairies and fairy lore, love because Shakespeare has kept the world interested and to study of the little beings. Puck. or Robin Goodfellow, who plays so important part in the Midsummer Nights Dream" was, as described by an ancient writer "famoused in everie old wives cronicle foe his,,mad merry prankes. ' He had the power of transforming him self into any creature he desired to be, and was in the minds of ancient folks th e twill o'the Wisp" of to-day and as such Oberon the "Kink of Shadows" orders him. ''Hie therefore. Robin. overcast the night; The stary welkin cover thou anon
 With dropping fog. as black as Acheron; And lead these testy rivals so astray, As one come not within another's way. He had a way of helping on or hindering the good housewife, and as he liked would turn milk sour or help in doing the good | wife's work. Of course Puck and the whole tribe of Shakespeare's fairies vera but a part of those who are described to us in folk lore. Every nstiol had its own kind. distinguished by their national character | istics. To good or bad fairy every ac- cident or blessing was credited. In Ireland years ago, and perhaps in some districts to- day, the people would dof their heir hats with some good salutstion to gain favor from the little fairy gentleman whose rompinR caused the dust. If milk was soured or beer spoiled it was the doings of some bad hobgoblin and disease and peStilence were from the same cause; while every piece of good fortune had the help of an elfn fairy. Science. in a way, supports these old beliefs. having brought to our notice a world of good and bad fairies. but gives them such horrid names as miciobe and bacteria, and keeps subdiyiding them into so many tribes with unpronouncable names that we may we'll thank Shakespeare for his Peas hlossom and 1 Monsieur Cobweb and Monsieur Mustard 1 Seed. and feel grateful that our great great great ancestors gave us names no more unpronouncaeble Ithan goblin, brownie and elfn for the hidden good and bad spirits of the universe. Palmer Cox and his brownies are even to-day better known by the world at large than any tribe of sci. antific bacteria.
 The genuis of Shakespeare nowhere more wonderfully shown than in his de hghtful Midsummer Nights Dream found a responsive echo in the heart of Mend elssohn who has clothed the fairies in fab ries of sweet music and in lovely accord with the verse.
 | Every elf and fairy spright.
 Hop as light as bird from brier."
 Science laughs at the fairy fancies. bu finds use for them though she robs then of their fairy forms

INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE.
The state Commissioner Asked to Make
 an investigation.


 Rm investigation.
 City Attorney Fox of New Haven has called the attention of Insurance Commis- sioner Mansfield to S practice on the part of certain life insurance companies which he believes to be full of danger. The in- surance companies in question are those which conduct what are known aS ''indus- trial departments.
 Numerous complaints have been made to the city attorney of the methods of one particular company. and it has been charged that the company has refused to pay policies on the merest pretext. The city attorney has been informed that the policies issued and complained of were is- sued without medical examination. These policies have been issued on children and aged people, and in many cases parties have been insured by others in no way re- lated to them, but who enter into the ar- rangement as a sort Of speculation. Commissioner Mansfield will take some steps to bring about change in the pres- ent system of industrial insurance. One of the most telling arguments that MI Fox brought to bear upon Commission CT Mansfield was the danger of crime re- sulting from companies insuring babies. Mir Fox is satisfied from facts in his pos session that in many instances babies who have been put>out of tha way in order that the parents might secure the insurance money. Cases of this nature have come to the attention of Mir Fox. but in none oi them could evidence be gathered sufficient to warrant prosecution for murder.
