HUNTINGTON.
THE MEMORIAL SERVICE.


 Owing to the unpleasant weather the tent erected and decorated by the Y. 1. 5. for the services of the G. A. R. was not used. The Town hall was opened in stead but It proved altogether too small for the crowd assembled and many were compelled to remain outside during the speaking. Rev George C. Sauef gave the address of welcome in his usual pleas. ing manner, Commander Oscar Cornisle of Waterbury then gave a short but very interesting address. The oration was delivered by Judge Torrence of Ansonia, and to every one who has heard Judge Torrence,it it will be needless to say that it was delightful and most inter. esting thing. Although Col Wooster had declined to make an address he was per suaded to make few remarks which were highly enjoyed by every one. Miss Bernice Bissell of Shelton very kindly gave a recitation appropriate for the day which was beautifully rendered. After the exercises at the two cemeteries the old soldiers enjoyed 8 few minutes social chat over a glass of lemonade and a sand wich, and departed feeling that of all Memorial days in Huntington this had been the most impressive and solemn.

Mark Twain on interviewing.

Mark Twain on interviewing.
Mark Twain does not like to be inter-
viewed. His opinion of the literary
ability of tie average interviewer is not
at all f1attering to the latter either. In
a talk with Rudyard Kipling, Mark
Twain once said: II think the poorest
article ever wrote and destroyed was
better worth reading than any interview
with me that ever was published. I
would like just once to interview N.Y.
self, so as to show the possibilities of
the interview. "-Philadelphia Ledger.
The forgetmenot has two or three EN-.
blematic meanings. One is suggested by
ite name; the other was probably orig
mated by it's color. Blue among flowers
is generally associated with the tender
passion.
In 10 days. time the distance between
New York and st. Petersburg may be
traversed.

THE LABOR WORLD

that the shape makes but little diner"
ence. The skull may be fiat, long and
narrow, or high, short ard wide, but it
must have room for the brain, and for
large brain at that, or else the bird is
not considered likely candidate for
racing honors. Great stress is laid on
this organ Ly all Belgium and Holland
fanciers, but in this country the feature
is almost entirely overlooked.
The chest should be broad and is of as
great Importance as the wing. A mar
row chested bird can fly no great dis
lance without exerting the muscles
which give fullness to the breast beyond
their endurance. The wings and tail
should both be exceptionally long, as
the tail acts as rudder, and the short
er wings require much added exertion
for the same amount of flying.
The color of a pigeon has no signifi-
canoe, but the rule in breeding is to
cross the colors when practicable.
Even the best bred of the homers
require most careful and intelligent
training before they are entered in
races. While the physique of the bird is
we'll deve' oped at the age of 10 weeks,
it is thought best to give considerably
longer time for the brain to develop be-
fore the bird is trained for the work
which lies ahead of him. At the age Of
4 months the first trial trips may be
made, and he is then flown from dis
tances Of between 2 and 80 miles at in
terva]s of two or three days apart.
Many birds are lost in these trial trips,
and those which return safely from the
longer trial trips may be considered fit
to enter in the young bird races. The
shortest of these is 100 miles in length,
and birds are not supposed to be flown
more than 80 miles before taking part
in the speed trials.
For the young birds the system of
training is supposed to accomplish two
widely different results. In the first
place they teach the young bird to re-
turn to his loft, and in the second they
develop the muscles and prepare them
for the hard work which the races Will
require of them. Training trips for old
