Mr.. Chamberlain declared the govern

"The present representation of Ire

scandal. No alteration can be made
except ia immediate cipation of a
general dissolution and we are not
contemplating that. But When we
get nearer to the time, we shall ask

A III E.1VY TOTE.

There was landslide, a typhoon, an
earthquake a tidal wave or something
in New Haven yesterday, and Mayor
Driscoll got the full and fatal effect of
1t. There had been some indications of
it in the barometer, the seismograph,
etc, etc, but all the same it was a sur
prise when 1T came-.a pleasant surprise
to those who had hoped for it, and a
decidedly unpleasant surprise to those
who had hoped not for it.
1t was not pleasant for those who
were named for the minor places on the
Republican ticket to be only called
while the head of the ticket was chosen,
but the returns show that the voters
had special object in view, and they
went for it with industry and direct
ness. The election was decidedly non
partisan in some respects, and it shows
what voters can do when they feel like
it, And those hit by the vote feel that
1t can be correctly called heavy vote.

1t is gratifying to see the increased
care that is shown by the men who trim
the trees in our streets. While in for
mer years, Needless cutting of a limb
in horizontal fashion has led to still
further decay. this year care is taken
to leave slanting surface so that wa
ter can run off, and also to paint the
exposed flbres. The beauty of New Ha-
ven is greatly dependent on the elm
trees which line the streets and If pains
We're taken to replace each superan-
nuated tree with new one, we should
prevent the entire loss of the elms, and
should be provided with growing trees
when we begin to miss the giants that
have gone. N.

To the Editor Of the Journal and Courier:
Mayor Driscoll permitted his corpora

pose the Chamber of Commerce bill for
relief on excessive assessments, al
though the councilmen had voted by
about three to one to instruct him to
advocate the bill. There were over
three thousand taxpayers who had ap-
pealed from their assessments and who

wA4z.

There is talk which actually seems to
be serious about new electric railroad
between Berlin and Sossen on which
cars will be run at rate of 1870 miles
an hour At first it was decided to
build line between Berlin and HAM
. burg (about 157 miles). In view, how
ever. of the enormous expense which
such an undertaking would entail,
ABOUT $5oo0O,0oo, it was decided that
made elsewhere. This was the reason
why the Berlin Sossen route was chos-
en-. The motive power will be a cur
rent of twelve hundred volts, which
will be supplied by an electrical COM
pany whose works are eleven miles
from Sossen, the starting point of the
line. Only two cars have been con-
structed for the preliminary trials, and
each will be capable of carrying fifty
passengers and will be equipped with
six axles, of which four will be supplied
with three phase motors. Each motor
can develop 75O-horse power, so that
the vehicle is propelled by a power to-
failing, if need be, as much as 1900
horse power. The first trial of the new
cars will be made early in May.
A distinguished English scientific
man has just explained that such
speed as is proposed by the projectors

CHASING DE WAT.

Chasing the elusive De Wet isn't
cheering work. A correspondent of an
English paper who is taking notes of
the chase says that every other day
there has been thunderstorm, and in
South Africa thunderstorm is general
ly accompanied by torrential rains. In
very few cases have the men had any
shelter whatever. They lie down dog
tired cover their faces with their blan-
kets or greatcoats and try to sleep.
If they are lying on the level they find,
after ten minutes of South African rain,
that their bed is small lake; if they
sleep on slope, then it is miniature

PUSHING BUSINESS MEN.

The push-cart merchants of New
York city make as much noise as any
of the business men there, and though
they don't make as much money as
some they do pretty well. The Retail
Grocers' Advocate has been considering
them, and it finds that there are 1900
of them, mostly working on commits
sion There is also something which is
like push-cart trust. 1t is discovered
that one association controls about four
hundred push carts, which handle ST.
200 worth of goods a day, or $6S6,000
year. There is a buying agent and
central storehouse and several dis
tributing points. The business is
handled scientifically, and though the
push-cart men have no rights on the
streets except the right to keep moving,
and are subject to the whims of every
policeman, yet profit of about ten per
cent. is made. The push-cart men
themselves earn about 81 a day.
1t is plain that the push-cart man is

house has a comprador, who is the buy

comprador and clerks have been en-

An Abundance of Comfort at Small
Prices.
One need not be here long to get a
fair insight into the attractions of Chi
ma for foreign residents. The aptitude
of the natives for service of all kinds
leaves the outsider no occasion to fret
over the drudgeries and petty cares
that wear down The nerves In western
lands. Natives attend to every detail
of business, they look thoroughly after
household affairs, and they perform
those services not only to the pecuniary
advantage Of the foreigners, but with
the most cheerful disposition. 1T may
be that they consider themselves supe-
rior to those whom they serve; if so, 1t
is a superiority so exalted that it can
put up with the whims and vagaries of
the employers, and in many instances,
