Lew Dockstader continues to spread
sunshine and laughter at Polls Won

daily for local funnyisms, which he in
PRODUCES into his monologue. When
Dockstader takes hold of local subject
to make fun with it his hearers can
always depend on seeing the funny side
of what perhaps never before struck
them as being in any way comical. An
excellent company adds to the attrac-
tons. There are no better entertain
ers than the America trio, Smith and
Campbell. Moulton and Milton, Block

tiers. Next week Marietta and Belloni
with their trained cockatoos will be the
principal attraction. OF all the recent

said to be one of the most novel and
acceptable, furnishing sensation and
wonderment simultaneously with COM

MASONIC mUrUAA BENEFIT.
Proposed Changes 10 Come Up at Annual
Meeting In Hartford,


The twenty eighth annual meeting of
the Masonic Mutual Benefit association
of Connecticut is to be held in the Ma
sonic temple in Hartford, Thursday of
next week. This is one of the most
commendable branches of the Masonic
fraternity and is given a hearty sup
port by which it is maintained upon
a very prosperous business basis.
The board of directors has during the
past year given careful attention to
the matter OF so revising the constitu-
ton and bylaws of the association as
to put the two classes of members upon
q scientific, equitable and economical
basis
There are many advantages incorpor-
ated In the proposed changes. In class
A the membership fee is omitted and
the assessment on all new members is
placed at $3.50, 81 of which is for the
payment of death losses, the balance,
after the payment of the necessary ex-
penses, to be placed to the credit Of
the emergency fund. The assessments
of old members who have paid an adj
mission fee will remain, as now, $,.iO.
The most important change in class
B proposed is that Of replacing the as
sessment Of $3.50 at all ages alike by
assessments graduated according to
age, remaining fixed during the five
year periods. For instance the rate for
twenty-four years and under will be
$3.50; twenty-five to twenty-nine years,
IS; thirty to thirtyfour years, $3.50;

Dlnta'a Sanity Attack.

Lovers of literature will no doubt be
sorry to hear that, following in the
footsteps of learned Frenchman, an
equally erudite Italian has now practi-
cally proclaimed to the world that
Alighieri Dante was lunatic. DR.. Du-
rand Fardel is the Frenchman RESPONSE
BILE for this assertion, which was made
a long time ago. 1t has been revived,
with variations and additions. by no
less person than Prof Lombroso, who
of the present in order to diagnose the
mental condition of great men of the
past. 1t was said long since by father
of the church that there is no genius
untinged with an admixture of mad
ness but, according to Prof. Lombroso
Dante was subject to epileptfc fits; and
DR.. Durand Fardel sees in the visions
OF hell, heaven and purgatory the result
of maniac's dreams. Prof. Lombroso
furthermore expatiates on the irasci-
bility, the inordinate vanity and the
violent character of the Florentine poet
and. according to a French writer who
has preached the subject here, it is
"henceforward evident TO everybody
that Dante was fit for the straight
waistcoat." All this, however. will MOI

Painful Spectacle Recently Witnessed by
Morbid London Audiences.
Morbid sentiment has apparently
reached its height in England in q re-
cent hypnotic exhibition at the Royal
Aquarium. at which the subject was lit
orally buried alive and allowed to re-
main so for six days, says the New
York World.
The hypnotized man was sealed up
In stout casket, and, in the presence
OF the spectators lowered into a grave
nine feet deep. The lid Of the casket
was furnished with an aperture, and
this connected with a shaft which led
to the surface, making respiration pos
sible. and also enabling spectators to
view the face Of the buried man. At
least seven feet of earth we're shOveled
on top of the coffin, and for the period
of six days it was not disturbed. On
the seventh day the casket was dug up
in the presence of q large crowd. The
man when awakened was apparently
none the worse for his experience. The
London Lancet, which prints the &C
count OF this distressing spectacle
comments on it, saying: 1T Is dihacult

these frances have any use whatever

A PEEP AT PARLIAM EMIT.
Oaaiifed Women Are to Have the Munic

Oaaiided Women Are to Have the Munich
pal Vote.
While Oxford is rejecting the demand
of women for admission to degrees, and
Cambridge hesitating to grant it. the
house OF commons continues to make
progress in the direction of recognizing
the political equality of men and wo-
men, says the New York Recorder.
The remarkable success of the bill en-
abling women to act as poor-law guard
ians in Ireland has already been re-
corded. Another Irish bill gave the
house of commons the other day an
opportunity of again expressing its
opinion that women are entitled to the
fullest share in municipal government.
The bill was private bill, promoted
by the corporation of Londonderry, for
the enlargement Of the borough bound
aries and various other local improve
ments. 1t was opposed by the nation
alists on the ground that the catholics
of the borough were. by reason Of the
| high franchise, excluded from their fair
share Of representation on the town
council. After some hesitation the pro-
mOters Of the bill offered. as COM
promise, to accept for municipal pur-
poses, the ordinary parliamentary fran
chise. While accepting this offer, Mr..
Tim Healy pointed out that the parlia-
mentary franchise did not include wo-
men rate-payers, and 1t would be a
pity If the present opportunity of ex-
tending the municipal franchise to the
women of Londonderry were lost. Mr.
Johnston Of Ballykilbeg, an ardent
protestant, agreed with Mr.. Healy. ar
guing that women had secured the vote
in Belfast and that there was no pos
sible reason against their having it In
Londonderry. No one dissenting, 9
formal resolution was passed, express
ing the opinion of the house that thu
bill should be so framed as to enable
qualified women to have the municipal
vote.
