WOES OF AN OLD SOLDIER.
Chopping Wood and Cut His Foot
 Sent to Town Doctor

CuopplHS WOOQ ana Cut His Foot
 Sent to Town Doctor.
 James r. Sullivan, Il veteran of the Cfvil war, called upon Selectman Dor an this afternoon, and stated that he wanted ticket to the town doctor, adding that he had hurt his foot while chopping wood for an Italian near FrostS bridge. The selectman in- formed him that he belonged in the town or Thomaston, but he sent him to the physician all the same, and, of course, Thomaston will have to set tie. While the old fellow was waiting for the order he told a reporter of the Democrat that he came to this coup- try in 1S47 from Wexford, Ireland, and was glad to get his heels out of the place. not because he did not love the country, but on account of the condi- tion of the people there at that time They were fleeing in all directions he said, and many of those who could not find means to leave died of hunger and exposure, it being quite common to see them stretched here and there on the roadside dead. The awful pie lures of this kind which he saw in the time of his boyhood are as fresh in his mind to-day as they were the Qay De Dld aQ1eu 10 n1S native NeX- ford and they will remain there until he passes over to the silent majority. When the war broke out he enlisted in the Connecticut Heavy artillery, but was mustered out after short time. Then he joined the navy and served Uncle Sam on the seas for four teen years and six months. He passed through some thrilling experiences during the war and is chock full of interesting anecdotes about his esca- pades while wearing the livery of a jolly tar. When he got the ticket he thanked the selectman and ambled off apparently as happy as if he had a thousand dollars in his inside pocket. He has q married daughter in Canada and q son out west. but he prefers to travel about and make his own living rather than be q burden upon either of them.

-T-s THE SHORTEST ROUTE


TOT Maklng the Jubilee Is the QueS-
 tion Now Discussed
 What is the shortest route for resi- dents of the South end to take in mak- ing their rounds of the churches des- ignated by Bishop Tierney for the ju- bilee? is question quite good many are discussing these days. There does not seem to be much choice in commencing at the the Sacred Heart church or at St Patrick's, though some claim that the best plan is to go over Washington street to the Sacred Heart, then along East Main street to the Immaculate Conception. and from there across Brook street and down South Main street to Jewelry street and then along Jewelry street to the path that runs along Bank street to Washington avenue. along Washington avenue to Charles street, or one can keep right ahead on Bank street until he sees the mammoth structure known as St Patrick's. and then turn in through the vacant lot and enter the church. Of course some will ride on the cars. but ir is doubtful if people who are well able to walk would be complying with the intent of the church in so doing. though. to be sure, the pope's nor the bishops circular read to the people says noth- ing about the means people are to use in reaching the churches, and there fore, all who decide to make the jubi- lee are at liberty to ride or walk. But it is safe to predict that the greater number will prefer to walk, and the little exercise will do them good. It is needless to add that no one is bound to follow the lines mentioned herein, but seeing that the question of routes has been raised. We think people who live south of Scovilrs bridge would make no mistake in commencing at the Sacred Heart church. Of course people who live in the Heighborhood of one of the churches mentioned will | make their first visit there and then 1 reach the others anyway they please No doubt residents of tho North end and the western section will start at | the Immaculate Conception or St l Ann'S. What pity it is that the long talked of cross street from South Main 1 street to Bank street is not open to 1 public travel at this time. But this. | or any other obstacle will not bother people who want to comply with the
 conditions. and. judging by the way | the matter is bein" talked of there will
 in Waterbury who will nne how" made | the necessary number of visits with l in the time limit.

EDITOR TALKS ON NEWSPAPERS
Whitelaw Reid Lectures in the Brom-
 ley Course in Yale.


 New Haven. Feb 26-Whitelaw Reid last night delivered the first of the Isaac Bromley course of lectures on Journalism. Literature and Public Affairs" before 500 students of Yale university. Mir Reid's subject was ''The Newspapers as They Are"
 He was introduced by Professor Park Fisher in the absence of Profes- sor Hadley, and spoke for an hour and d half. discussing frankly the phases of modern Journalism and tracing as well the development Of newspaper work in some of it's more important features. Among other things, MT Reid said:
 ''The old saying let me make the songs of a people and care not who makes the laws is out of date now. Where is the song writer to-day con- pared with the reporter? Who is there who does not read the newspapers? What song, what speech. what scrip ture. what other utterances of any kind unfailing gets attention every day?
 ''The f1ippancy of our newsnapers. which so veXed the soul of Matthew Arnold. certainly continues. as we'll as their deDlorable addition to the use and invention of slang. But they are more generally well written than they were fifteen years ago: and are often moro attractiyely arranged.
 ''The number of young college-bred men whom they enlist grows steadily larger. They are better informed on the subjects they discuss. or at least they have acquired and organized far better means of gathering information. Whoever has had to do with public affairs has learned that as all nature is in conspiracy against vacuum. so under the guidance of the newspapers the whole world around them Is in cOnSDiracy against a secret. "'Thnv study the progress and even the nalitics of all nations. They give forei"n news by cable with tanfold the fu'ness of few wears ago. A rate of 53 cen+s q word from China and of far mora from the Piilinnines does not check the fnll daily reports. Tel eer8phs and telaDhoneS. in the ener- geiic hands of the press. have made our own country. from ocean to ocean, Q mere sounding board.
 ''Transformations and rivalries in Associated Press organizations. have made it easier to start newSDaners. and ea Sier to secure H good news service from all tho world There has been an extra ordinary increase in the at ter+inn given to the interests of women and also in the snAce surrendered. even in 5he most sedatn of journals, to every variety of sport"

O'Kellv rector of the church of Our Lady off Good Counsel. in New York. represented her in the case, alleging that Father Mahoney had exercised undue influence upon Father Powers. with whom he lived. to get him to make him sole beneficiary. Carroll Whitaker of Saueerties. who repre- sented some of the heirs. made a state ment to the Surroeate to-day. saving he had become convinced no undue influence had been exercised by Fath- CT Mahoney.

 Many persons in thIs section have been lnquiring of the Brooklyn Briefs man concerning the petition of a number of the prominent residents and DuSlness men of this section to the board of education, praying that the dial on the clock which adorns the tower of the Bank street school, be H. luminated. The invariable answer was as follows: The petition was read at meeting of the board of educa- ton. was ordered received and placed on file. And oil file it is at the pres ent time- People are anxious to know what is to be done in regard to the petition. They think that the Bank street school clock should be illuminat- ed, as we'll as the clock of the Wash ington hill school. Alderman D. J. Mahaney, who was instrumental in drawing up the petition. stated. when questioned on the subject, that the board would. no doubt. consider the petition at the next meeting or the one after. That was his hope any way. 1t would be great benefit for the res- idents Of this section and one that would be much appreciated.

WOMAN'S RIGHTS,

am in favor of woman's rights
for no other reason than that / am
in favor of human rights. The
whole is greater than a part. Be-
sides, the whole includes the part;
and the part can never rest secure
in our hands, unless the integrity
and safety of the whole be guaran-
teed. The individual cannot exist
apart from his natural and necessary
social environment; nor can his
rights be securely safe guarded ex-
cept as the rights of society are
established in permanent and peace
ful order. No person can be loyal
to woman's rights unless he, or she.
is loyal to mems rights; and no per-
son can be loyal 70 some women's
or some mems rights, unless he. or
she, is loyal to all women's and all
mems rights.
The solidarity and integrity OF
the human race is the stern fact
which no State and no community
can ignore or tri6e with but at its
near or distant peril. So long as
there is any individual or any num-
Der Of individuals demanding Of the
reigning social regime those rights
that naturally belong to them, and
are thus demanding in vain, the
foundation Of such a social order
arc resting on quicksands, volcanoes
and earthquakes that arc as sure 10
cause its ruin as night is to follow
day. One deep drawn sigh of the
persistentY wronged and oppressed
will, through the years, gather the
force Of a cyclone, to overthrow
and punish the wrong door and
oppressor tear after tear falling
from the eyes Of the humblcst
sufferer who suffers unjusuy will at
last become a tidal wave Of cosmical
wrath 70 sweep away injustice

When ] asked Senator Dolliver
when and where he first began TO
consider himself famous, he said
"My first term in Congress gave

people up Ia the Iowa hills had a

me. Then new postoffice was
named in my honor, and colored
woman named her baby after me.

a few years ago Mr.. Deliver
was invited to deliver lecture in
81. Paul and Minneapolis, Mimi,
before the Young Mems Christian
Association Lyccum. In each city
the hall was crowded wherein he
spoke, some 1900 young men at

believed in young men, and liked
to talk with them, knowing full we'll
that il one can stir them up TO

"Well, l have not changed my
opinion since the delivery of that

to hear from those particular young

me. They came in lunches of two

is the young mems age, wrote that

DESCENDANTS OF ADAM AND EVE
TO HAVE A REUNION.
Must Trace Lineage TO Adam aud Eve or
Paradise.

Milton, Pa March aI.-A re-
union of the direct descendants of
Adam and Eve, all persons to be
excluded who cannot trace their
ancestry without break to those
pioneer residents of Paradise. is
shortly to be held in this town. 1t
Will be the most unique gathering
ever held, and one of the largest,
for the number of people who can
refer to their genealogical tree and
point with pride to Adam and Eve
as the base of it are more numerous
than most people would suppose.
Adam was a cabinetmaker, car
penter and farmer. Eve was his
wife. They lived in Paradise
eight miles from here, one of the
best farming sections in Northum
berland county, or, for that matter,
the State. Adams other name was
Schuyler. His marriage with Eve
was romantic beyond compare. He
did not have TO give up one of his
ribs to get her. A friend, remark
ing about the coincidence in names.
introduced them, and that was the
beginning of courtship that ended
in marriage and long and blissful
welded life in serpentless Eden.
They reared large family, in
nearly every branch of which the
names Adam and Eve have been
preserved. The Schuylers come of
Holland stock and trace among
their ancestors the Schuylers of
Revolutionary fame, but this branch
of the family is especially proud of
the fact that they are also descend.
ants of Adam and Eve.

WHAT Is A KISS.


The following are few deGni-
tons in answer to the question
asked, "What is a kiss ?"
"a kiss is noun though used as
conjunction. 1t is never declined.
1t is more common than proper; ii
is not very singular and is generally
used in the plural and agrees with
you and me. Z"
Something Of nothing, and the
Lord knows it's good"
GA conjunction which cannot be
declined"
"Two Fuckers drawn together by
Cupid's bow string"
GA heaven given power by which
a man can shut a woman's mouth
without knocking her head Off"
ga damsel, describing her first
kiss, said that she never knew how
1t happened, but the first thing she
remembers was a sensation Of fight
ing for her breath in a dollhouse
full of violets, with the ventilator
choked by blush roses and tulips"
ga twentieth century American
kiss is a sudden contraction and re-

Love"
"The electricity produced by the
battery of the lips, which sends
warm, thrilling currents to the
heart and brain, and-shocks other
people"
And, finally, here is a Pennsyl-
wanna receipt; "To one piece of
dark piazza add a little moonlight
take for granted two people. Press
in two strong hands a small soft
