ALFRED MILLS HUDSON, JR.
Was a Rough Rider of Roosevelt's
 Troop

Was a Rough Rider of Roosevelt's
 Troop.
 "Taps,' that sad refrain which sig nals the close of day, and which de- notes at a soldiers funeral that the end of all that is mortal has come, was sounded to-day at Camp Wikoff, at Montauk Point, over the grave in which Alfred Mills Judson, Jr, a New York boy, a hero not only of the war, but in that he did the most that any man can do. he laid down his life for his friends, Judson was Rough Rider a member of Colonel Roosevelt's troop, which earned such fame before Santiago, to return to the United States shattered in health, suffering from sickness and dy- ing from plague diseases. He fought as all of them fought, bravely and he- roically; unlike many of his comrades, he escaped the Spanish bullets and also the dread levers which beset our troops in the Pearl of the Antilles"
 For his bravery he was taken from the ranks and made a sergeant, and when his troops came north he was as- siduous in aiding to care for his sick and wounded comrades His devotion to them was his undoing, for so great was HIS aHHIelS TOT lIiclI WciAdlc, anu so eager was he to do all possible to give them comfort that he forgot him. self His friends, who thought he was well and strong, were dumbfounded to learn that overwork and mental dis tress had brought him to state from which there was no recovery. He did all he could, and his life work ended, he lay down and died. Such heroism surpasses even deeds of bravery upon the feld such death is even greater than that by an enemy's bullet.
 Young Judson came of family of heroes. He was lineal descendant of Colonel Agar Judson, of Huntington, who fought with Washington in the revolution. The young hero, subject of this article, was one of three broth CTS. another of whom also enlisted, and is now with the troops at Camp Thom- as, ,Chickamauga park. Colonel Agar Judson, who, by the way. was the great grandfather of the wife of Hon. D, N. Morgan, ex-United States treas erer, was a warrior of note, and earned much favorable mention from the lead CTS of the war of the revolution. Young Judson's lineage On the other side of the family, the Mills side, is d. rect from the time when his ancestor, in the days of 1776 kept the store now owned and occupied by R. W. Lindsley. In those days people travelled by boat from what is now Bridgeport, and from Norwalk, Westport and other towns, to Derby landing. and thence by teams to Huntington to buy goods, Mills store being the headquarters of trade for miles around. So successful was he in business that he died leaving fortune of eighty thousand dollars which in those days was equivalent to million or more at the present time.
 So 1t can be seen that tho young hero of Santiago and of Camp Wikoff, over whose grave to-day sounded the rnournful notes of the bugler, was of old revolutionary stock, and died as his an- cestors died, for his country and for his llow-men.-Bridgepor Farmer, August 23

Dr. Cassidy of Norwich is the owner of eight old almanacs printed for Ma than Daboll from 1872 to 1S19 These books are full of ancient miscellany. They formerly belonged to Captain Joseph Palmer of stonington Point. During the war of 1S12-14 Captain Pal mer used these books to make records upon. There are many curious medical prescriptions in the old books. One is a curiosity: Cure for the croup. One wineglass of rum and two pence of tur- pentine. Hold the child before the fire place and rub the throat and lungs with the mixture. It is a sure cure"

Of Mississippi is such man. He is now
serving his third term and is one Of the
strongest young members in the house.
He is brainy, fearless, industrious, witty,
honest and scholarly, being a graduate
of Heidelberg university. He is on the
committee on foreign affairs and is an
intense Cuban sympathizer. He Is a
Democrat because he understands and
loves the principles Of civil liberty as
expounded by Thomas Jefferson. He is

government. Last night he re- heated that he was willing to give his services, and regretted that be- cause he was beyond the age limit they could not be accepted.
 aThe annexation of Cuba, it seems to me, he said, twill follow the expulsion of Spanish forces from the island. I do not think the insurgent government will be satis- factory or stable for any length of time, and the lack of peace will re-
 suit in demand from Americans for it's annexation to this country.
 Why, the autonomist government
 was superior to what l believe the insurgents will provide. Porto Rico suppose we must hold, too. The people there, however, proba- bly, will give us little trouble, and it is fertile, rich country. The Philli fpines I do not know much about, and if 1 have read correct accounts in the newspapers, it must be land of great resources, and as such will not be drawback on our government.
 When asked how long he thought the war would last, Gen. Long street said he had little means of judging, but he thought if a policy of starvation were adopted it would mean only matter of few weeks.
 "If the Spanish armies in vari- ous parts of the island are cut of from supplies" he said, T don't see how they can stand it more than six weeks or two months. But f they are not embarrassed for food or ammunition, It seems likely to be prolonged conflict"
