Subscriptions Being Taken Up to Pay
 For Band Concerts.


 The matter of band concerts has again been brought to the attention of the public by the passing of books throughout the shops for the purpose of obtaining subscriptions to the same. The leader of the American band stated yesterday that he did not think the band would play down here this year unless the borough would consent to build small temporary platform for them on the green, as they claim that last year the crowd jostled and pushed them by their crowding around when they were on the walk.
 There was no session of the borough court this morning.
 Frederick Berard of Hartford was in town this morning.
 A number of children are seen to congregate around the fountain day after day. Some of them want q drink, while others go up there just to raise Cain. A couple of the latter class were at the fountain yesterday after noon about 3 o'clock. One of the boys in this crowd was standing on the cop ing and ducking his head into the upper part of the fountain, while the other fellow was walking around in the lower basin. Those things are not right and the sooner the boys who per sist in doing this work are made an example of the sooner will such work at the fountain desist.

Too Many Doctors.

Statistics of the country relating to physicians indicate the possibility, if not the actuality, of overcrowding in the medical profession. It was found in the census year that there was one registered physician to every 655 people inIthe United States. That the number is in excess of the need is evidenced by comparison with Ger many, where, in 1898, there was only one physician to each 2,114 inhab- itants, or relatively about one-third as many as in the United States.

COL. OLCOTT TALKS.
Apostle of Theosophy Makes De
 fense of His Faith.
Says He and His Followers Have Nothing in Common with Dowie Teachings, Christian Science
 or Other Faith Cures.

Col. Henry Steel Olcott, of India, president of the Theosophical society. recently arrived in Chicago to attend the fifteenth annual convention of the American section of the Theosophical society.
 The head of the society of mysti- cism and science has, had long and varied career.
 Col. Olcott is not 9 believer in either Dowieism or Christian Science. ssI adn not acquainted either with Dr. Dowie or his belief,' he said to a reporter. But the head of the church of Zion, from what I have heard and seen in the newspapers, strikes me as being a charlatan. 1 am not believer in the creed of which Mrs. Eddy is the head. The Lord may make cures of bodily ills
 He undoubtedly has the power. But did you ever know of one instance where the Lord received the money or anything aside from somewhat ful. some credit for His work?
 .'sThe public has no conception of the results attained by the Theosoph- ical society. From the foundation of our creed we have been derided by ig- norant writers and speakers and treat ed contemptuously, as though we were a band of fanatics or charlatans. In de- fense of myself and my coworkers I must state that the leaders in our re- ligion receive no salaries and some not even the cost of their daily bread. We receive no presents of money for our own use, and this factg gives flat contra diction to statements that we have been working from selfish motives.
 T think we have right to have these facts known and also that we have outlived all opposition, have over come all obstacles and built up in wonderfully brief time a sociological movement of the first rank, which to-

Fed Hi. Cow on Money.

An interesting COW case lately came to light in Hicksville, N. Y. Edward Settle, a farmer of that place, sold a COW to a Brooklyn butcher for s45. After the butcher had slaughtered the animal he found in its stomach a leather wallet containing SIP in bills and three fve-dollar gold pieces. The farmers now think of examining the interiors of their cows by means of the x-rays before selling them.

MONEY IN HER TEARS.
A Woman in Black Who Can ween and Excite Highly Remunera-
 tive Sympathy at WiI1.

"Do you see that woman in black sitting there?" said railroad de- tectice to a New York Sun reporter. Well, she possesses the rare gift of being able to cry naturally and at will.
 If she sees a group of well-dressed men in a station waiting for train she'll sit or stand very near them and burst out crying. Of course, her misery will attract attention and some man will surely come to her relief. The story is that she has no money to buy ticket to get to her

Fox, Chased by Hounds, Ran on tho Links and Is Killed by Pretty

Miss Anita Wakeman, of Trenton, N. J., enjoys the distinction of being the only young woman in the world who ever killed fox with golf stick.
 Charles Heath, a young man of Tren- ton, received fox fresh from the prairies of Kansas few days ago. He invited party of friends to par ticipate in fox chase, promising a lively run.
 The animal was given a fair start on the dogs and the hunters dashed away in pursuit. The chase led over a rough country along the base of the

 K Col! Olcott's #ork9in India in nspread- ing the ldoctrihesso theosophy and in amehorafing the conditions of many of the low-caste natives has called out praise and commendation from all parts of the world. In company with Mime. BlayatslSy he established schools, united warning factions and revived the Sanskrit literature that had fallen into disuse.
 Since the headquarters of the Theo- sophical society were established in India, 21 years ago, much work has been accomplished. The society has spread the teachings of the ancient sages and adopts and shown the simi- larity between the ancient teachings and the discoveries Sf modern science.
 Tn addition Col. Olcott recited mum Der of other examples of good work on the~ part of the organization. We have promoted the human brother hood," he saidL We have effected fra ternal feelings between the northern and southern schools of Buddhism in India. We have won thousands of cul- tured and educated people to our be- lief; have brought about revival of Buddhism in India; laid the founda- tions of Central Hindoo college at Be- mares, India, an institution now four ishing and receiving increased endow- ments every month. We have revived Buddhism in Ceylon and have started a great educational movement in that island. Lastly, we have begun cam tpaign of education among the pariahs of India, with a hope that we may be able to lift them from out of their deA spised and downtrodden condition.''
 Col Olcott has been expert agricul- turist and as such has refused many offers of government position; he is the author of many books and has been successively newspaper man, lec- turer, soldier and statesman. He is 69 years old, but as erect and agile as a man half that age.
 A silver medal that Col Olcott carries in his pocket he regards as among his choicest treasures. Intrinsically the medal is worth but little, but it was presented to the wearer by the depart ment of agriculture in recognition of his fine newspaper work during the Chicago exhibit in 1859. His report of the agricultural congress held in con- nection with the exhibit was said to be the most comprehensive statement written of the meeting.

fit his case.
 Breaking horses was all well enough in the way of business, but for pastime there was not enough excite ment in it. Eddie found that some of the long, lean steers that came up from the great ranches of the south west beat the fastest horses he could find to ride. The only reason why they could not get away from the cowboy was because the brains of the man di- rected the pursuing horse, while the poor steer had no governing hand to help it out, but merely brute strength, agility and speed. Now Eddie has har- messed steer and can cover ground with it faster than any horse on the ranch can go.

AMERICAN LEAGUE.
ANGLING.

Any trout fisherman knows that the
best place to strike trout Is toward
the lower part of the pool, and not at
the head of the pool. 1t takes deep
water ordinarily to hold big fish, and
the largest trout ordinarily will be
found in or near the deepest holes OF
the stream. Suppose then that one
knows the location of such a deep run,
ma dthat, after dark, he takes his place
midstream at the head of such pool,
and then allow his flies to trail down
across the water. perhaps 80 or 40 feet
below him, or perhaps even more. He
will now and then hear a splash in the
water where the trout are feeding, and
now and again he will feel his fly sud-
denly snatched by some fish whose rise
he has not been able to see at all. FISH
ing of this kind may be a more or less
pleasant experience, and it is nearly al
ways a much more productive one in
the way Of large fish than daylight fish,
ing. The big trout feed at some time,
and they usually prefer to feed at night,
whether they take the fly or the larger
and coarser food which makes up the
greater part of their diet.-Globe- Demo-
crat.
