Montana Sliding.

Is Montana creeping into Idaho and Wyoming? There is some evidence on the affirmative side of the question, but not enough to cause alarm in any of the three states. Still, for several years it has been known that there is some trouble with Montana's founda- tions, which are slipping, and leaving evidence of the fact on the surface of the ground. Railway companies have found quite plain and strange twists in the alignment of their roads, and civil engineers have found "bench nnarlss'' changing their elevations in a confusing manner. Quite recently these reasonably suspected move ments have become apparent, and left large cracks in the earth at several points in the city of Butte, extending for a number of feet, and being in ex- treme cases 1e inches wide. The effect of this is not only to throw railways ont Of line, but to cause much more serious damage to gas pipes and water mains. Geologists say that nothing serious is threatened. and that parts Of Montana are only doing in more marked manner what is going on all over our restless world. IN. r. 1STalq*

MEMBERS MUCH INTERESTED. A. Q U. ". to Change Assessment
 From Level to Classified Rate.

Much interest is manifested among the local members of the A. o. U. W. over the proposed change of assess merits in the order from the level to the classified rate
 There was special session of the Grand lodge last week and it was vo,ed in favor of change to the classified rate. The vote stood 5O4 in favor to 16S against The matter was then referred to the committee on laws t) draft the necessary changes to ex- isfi1.g laws and the plan will be put ln force beginning November l.
 The change contemp1ates assess ncntS not in excess of twelve per year. but makes the limit on full rate poI. icy of a member 50 years old and up- ward of $3.56 an assessment, or $3. S with the guaranty fund added.
 The division of cash was adjusted by giving outright to the Massachu- setts jurisdiction one-half of the $45, ,OOD on hand. the other half to be divided pro rata between the Maine and Rhode Island jurisdictions.
 Tie matter in regard to petitions for special sessions was. .safeguarded by requiring the signatures of fifty mem bers representing fifty lodges, instead of ten members and ten lodges, as for rerly.
 There were 327 representatives pres ent and 672 votes cast.

DEMOCRATS MET YESTERDAY.
Ehe Gathering Was Most Harmon
 ious One.

The democrats held an enthusiastic meeting in the city hall yesterday af- fernoon and listened to addresses on the question of constitutional reform and other questions by speakers who demonstrated their ability to discuss such matters intelligently- Attorney John F. Holohan called the meeting to order. Attorney Carmody was chosen chairman and Attorney Minor secre- tary. Addresses were made by Mayor Kilduff. Senator Kennedy, Represent ative Guilfoile. Dr John F. Hayes, James NJ. Sullivan and James A. Hynes. The presence of Dr Hayes on the stage was a source of much pleasure to everybody and when his name was mentioned he was given an ovation that he will not soon forget Dr Hayes said that his acquaintance with Mayor Kilduff extended over a period of thirty-three years, since their boyhood, and that during all these years the relations between them had been pleasant and he knew of no req son why they should be different now. He was prepared to do his duty for the election of Mayor Kilduff and the rest sf the ticket to-day, just as he had always done for his party in the past. The other speakers confined themselves principally to the question of constitutional reform. All hand led the subject with consumnate skill and received tremendous applause. MT Sullivan made a hit in his com parison of the strength of the cities in the legislature as compared with that of the rural districts and how success fully a republican city attorney has corraled the voters of Waterbury so that we are bound to have a republi- can board of aldermen. even when the democrats carry the city by majority of 1,50O, as was the case two years ago, and consequently a continuance in office of the man who wields such mighty influence at Hartford.

Rig Shoe House Gives Its Employes
 an Eight Hour Day.
 Boston, Oct 7.-The Thomas c. Plant Co. manufacturers of the famous "Queen Quality shoes, running the largest factory in the world of wo- n.en's fine shoes. has reduced the work ing day of its 2.000 employees to eight hours day. Two years ago the Plant Or. with payroll of S1. 1.000,O00 per an- mum. decided to adopt the nine-hDur system. They believed that, under proper conditions, their factory could produce as many shoes with the nins- hour system as with the usual ten-hour shoe factory day. By adopting special methods in keeping the help employed, requiring promptness in attendance, the new departure was made a success in results, and recently it was decided to still further reduce the hours to eight instead of nine. This is the re- suit of perfect system in supervising every detail of an immense business. day the Thomas G. Plant Go enjoys tho unique distinction of having v0l-s unfarlly put into effect an eight-h0ur system without any change at all being made in the wages of their week hnude, which is one-fifth of their total force employed and, further, The com pauz claims that under conditions now enforced the piece work help can earn as much in the eight-hour day as they formerly earned In the <el1-h0pr day.

THE YALE CELEBRATION.
Brilliant illumination Plans Which
 VIII be Carried Out.

The general committee having charge the detailsA for the celebration of the bicentenniai of Yale and the visit of President Roosevelt to New Haven say that the scheme of illumination Is most elaborate and includes the dis play of 4,3OO electric lights on the green and 1000 on the city hall. George D. Foote, electrical engineer and designer of the display at the time of the fire chiefs convention, five years ago, will have charge of the il- lumination. The scheme for the il- lumination is as follows:
 The liberty pole will have a bril- liant base 16 feet square, from the corners of which torches with a unique smoke effect will send shooting col ored flames 30 feet high. Then the pole itself for a distance of 50 feet up almost to the crosstrees. will be en- closed in a box four feet square on the sides of which will be myriads of electric bulbs in all colors, and the op- orator in charge will be able to change the switch almost fifty times in tri- angles, squares, circles. "Y's' and zig gags by the pressure of a button. There will be 400 lights in this column. A big electrical star will surmount the liberty pole, F feet from point to point and carrying POO points, and the bal ance of the pole will be wound with lights.
 From the liberty pole there will be festoons of tri-colored lights, sweep ing in curves 24O to APO feet away centering in stars of lights at the fine old elms, and from tree to tree about the old green there will be similar fes toons of brightness. Four artificial electric trees, filled with glowing globes, will occupy the corners and add their radiance In the whole array there will be 4,30O lights of more than 10 candle power each.
 The front of the city hall will re semble the electric tower of the Pan American. More than 1000 pure white lights will be used in outlining the front of the building, inclding the battlements and the clock tower.

FLOWERS AND PICTURES.
Dalton 6 Co and Waterbury Art Store
 Made Fine Display.

Dalton 6 Go, florists, and the Wa ferbury Art store, pictures, opened their new store Saturday evening in the newly-fnished Prichard building on Bank street, corner of Grand. The sight that greeted the eyes of the on- lockers when the lights were turned on was something dazzling. The mag nificent new store. situated so promin- ently on the corner of two of Water bury's busiest streets. was brilliantly illuminated by numerous electric lights. The display of pictures and plants was almost beyond description. The large, handsome show windows on the Bank street side were filled with some of the finest pictures ever shown in Waterbury. Hundreds of people lined the sidewalks on both sides all during the evening. The Grand street windows were filled com pletely with the best display of palms and ferns and other hothouse products ever exhibited in a Waterbury flower store. On the inside of the store the sight was even more entrancing. The walls were covered with hundreds of beautiful subjects arranged very ar tASIiCaAy W4lH d IACA 1eu NOLtdSe Po- per as a background. The center of the floor was occupied by large table on which were placed scores of choice Boston ferns, while everywhere were to be seen vases of roses, carnations, violets and potted plants. Thousands of people called at the store during the evening and all expressed great surprise at the beautiful appearance of the store. Each visitor was made the recipient of a handsome picture as a souvenir.

APPLAUD SAINT czosGoLz."
Anarchists in London Attempt to Jus

tify the Assassination.
 London, Oct "A large meeting of anarchists was held yesterday in a hall in Tottenham Court road, London, to hear a lecture on the assassination of President Mckinley by H. Kelly of New York. The audience, largely composed of foreigners. applauded all
 4ences to Saint Czolgosz'' and his s'meritorious act"
 The speakers included Errico Mala- testa, the Italian anarchist, who des- cribed the assassination as ''deed of heroism."
 Kelly's lecture was a wild harangue fin denunciation of MT McKinley's polit- ical career. He said that they did not try to justify assassination, but rather to explain it as the outcome of ''the oppression of workmen by capi- fal''
 eff the killing of Mckinley opens the eyes of the capitalists and induces them to treat the working people bet ter" cried the agitator, then great good will have been done''
 The Standard, protesting editorially against the holding of the meeting, says: AG
 We publish a report for the pur- pose of drawing attention to the crim- 1nal methods that are practiced in our very midst. It may be allowed that the form of Kelly's address was not specially violent, part of it being only vulgar abuse Yet he went quite faf enough to call for the notice of those whose duty it is to stop apologies for murder.

M'KINLEY's LAST WORDS.
pr W. D. Mann Writes a Letter to the
 Mckinley Heirs.


 Washington, D. C., Oct 7.--The sons and daughters of the late Presioent McKinley's native state of Ohio, who are residents of Washington, yester- day paid last tribute to the memory of the dead congressman, governor ana president. The gathering was held at the Chase opera house under the aus pices of the Ohio republican associa- tion. About 5000 persons were pres ent.
 An interesting feature of the meet ing was the reading of a letter from Dr M. D. Mann, one of the presidents s physicians. to T. M Sullivan, the sec retary of the. association. It was as follows:
 Buffalo, N. Y, Sept 26. 1901. T. M. Sullivan. Esq:
 My dear sir:-As President Mckinley was dying stood behind a. screen m his room and heard him say his last words. His wife came into the room and he said to her: Good-by, all; good by; it is Gods way; His will be done, not ours" There was some further conversation with his wife in the way of leave-taking, but this should not be repeated. About an hour later he said to his wife, Near CT My God to Thee, Fen though it be cross,'' has been my constant pray CT. He tried to say Something more, but I could not catch it. gave out, at that time, the first sentence as being the most appropriate to be remembered as his last words. I wrote them down at the time, so that there can be TO question about it.
 Hours very truly,
 W. D. Mann.
