 much pleased with the ceremonies.
 Candy, some pretty little article and
 fruit were included in the packages giv-
 en to each of the inmates.
 The four turkeys used at the Christ
 mas dinner were generously contributed
 by Mrs Bishop, Mrs. William Warner and Mrs. T. G. Bennett. Mrs. James D. DeWell donated crate of fine oranges, and other very acceptable gifts were received for the Christmas dinner. Mrs. Bishop, Mrs. Warner and Mrs. Bennett were the donators of the fine turkeys enjoyed at the home on Thanksgiving day.
 There are at present t1fty-two Inmates at the Home for the Friendless, and two are expected there to-day. Of these fifty-tWo twenty-five are very old Wo- men, all being over seventy years and ten having passed their eishtieth year.

der of the defense very anxious. Whip pie had a night off and it might be said that the Blues played with only four men, Bone, Canavan, Whiting and La tions doing all the playing that counted towards victory. The playing In de- tail:
 Goal one was won on swift, long drive by Hipson. The second, by Rob- erts, was also very hard shot which Lations failed to hold. Goal three was the result of a piece of fine passing be- tween Roberts and Hipson, which the latter poked in. The fourth goal, by Bone, was a lightning drive from the side and shot over Starkie's foot. Whit
 ing, by short, quick drive, opened the score for the Blues in the second period A pretty pass by the same player ena- bled Bone to add another tally, while Bone again did the needful after Star kie had saved a grand drive in excellent style. The eighth goal was perhaps the prettiest of the game and was won by Bone after series of clever Juggling in which he slid around all the Tigers defense and banged the ball past Star kie from the side.
 6Otn teams playeu nara Ill the ia1St period, the Tigers being on the aggres- sive, while the Blues did their best to maintain the lead they had. For some time it looked as if neither side was to score, both goal-tenders defending their cages in excellent style After a hard struggle Whiting passed to Bone, who drove the ball past Starkie for the sixth time. Just before time was called Rob- erts drove Waterbury's fourth goal past Lations, which made the final score 6 to in favor of New Haven.

THE COLONIAL BUGBEAR

( \ colony of the United States. being
under the Federal Constitution. would
be 50 nearly identical with a Territory
that it would be absurd to call it any
thing else.
The true colony, as Great Britain or
dams and recognizes it, has local self
government and an appointive Cover
nor who, in turn, names some or al OF
the higher administrative officers. In
this respect it is like an American Ter
ritory; but it also has the right 10 en-
act its own tariff and navigation laws,
and that is where it becomes vitality
different from what an American colo
ny could possibly be. AS the Federal
Constitution stands, the revenue laws
Of the United States must apply equal
ly in ell American possessions. The
Supreme Court so construed the law
when California was ceded TO the
Union, holding that, by the ratification
OF the treaty California becomes
part of the United States & : in
stantly bound and privileged by the
laws which Congress had passed 10
raise . revenue from duties on i'm
ports" II is conceded by all great
lawyers who have so far studied the
matter and given their views to the
public that the same principle must APP
ply to Hawaii, Porto Rico, the Philip
pines and any other acquired posses
siOns. The clause of the organic law
which says that all duties, imports
and excuses shall be uniform through
ont the United States settles the mat
ter. both as regards the tariff and the
laws, in the latter relation
freeing American ships in waters dom
mated by United States custom houses
from tonnage and import duties. By
common consent the phrase the Unit
ed States" as used in the Constitution
means all territory of whatever pOliti-
cal organization, which the flag per
shelters. Only during adm
term military rule can separate tariff
jurisdiction be maintained.
The point is that even if Hawaii were
called colony it would be identified in
all its important privileges and immu
mites with Territory; and that this
being so. no practical reason can be
given for calling it d colony or treating
il as anything else than an integral
part of the Union.
