The Waterbury Military band will give g concert, promenade and dance in Columbus hall, Naugatuck, tonight.
 The Tuesday evening class in physf- cal culture at the Friendly league will meet as usual tonight. The class in French will have no lesson owing to the absence of MT Tumerelle, the in- structor.
 The forty hours devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, which was com menced at the Immaculate Conception church Sunday, ended this morning at $ o'clock, when high mass was cele- brated by the Rev Father O'Brien. At the conclusion of the mass there was procession of the Blessed Sacrament, in which about 300 children partici- pated. All the services have seen largely attended. Among the visiting priests who have been in attendance during the services were the Rev Fathers Matthew Traynor, Waterville; T. NJ. O'Brien. Thomaston; William Tanning and Michael Higgins, Nauga- tuck; and George Synnot, Torrington Many local priests also assisted.

Say, if the kidnap- pers, who steal children for living, would only kidnap a few members of the beef trust and drop them accident ally into very deep water with q heavy weight around their necks, we wonder what would happen the kid napper? We know their fate if Phe- Ian, the tea man. was the judge. Say, we have q sort of very strong idea that this very same beef trust has the butter market cornered: at least, it looks that way to us. Therefore. if the people decide to eat more bread and butter and less meat they'll find they are compelled to pay 10 cents per pound rise" for butter, so it's six of one and half a dozen of the other. We must eat something, and no matter to what we switch off the monopolists have their eye open for our pockets; not to fill them: oh, no. but to empty them as slyly as possible. We'll, if the lawmakers would drop the two cents per pound duty on beef, etc, and the six cents per pound duty on but ter and the retailers sell only imported butter and beef, things might change. We don't believe i'll selling foreign goods when we can get our own pro- ducts reasonable, but we do believe in giving the beef trust a pair of black eyes.

There are times when your liver needs a tonic. Don't give purgatives that gripe and weaken. DeWitt's Little Early Risers expel all poison from the system and act as tonic to the liver. w. Scott, 53l Highland ave-, Milton, Pa., says: 'I have carried DeWitt's Little Early Risers with me for several years and would not be without them." Small and easy to take. Purely vegetable. They never gripe or distress. W. H. Timerhof. 2

New Forest ReservAt ton.

The people of southeastern New Mexico are much displeased over the setting apart large tract of the best forest land in Lincoln county under the title of ''The Lincoln County Forest Reserve" There has been no agita- tion looking to the establishment of such reserve. The grassy slopes of the White mountains, covered almost to summits with heavy pine timber, are included in the reserve. Stockmen are apprehensive that thousands of cattle which range here will be driven away. Together with the Mescalero Indian reservation more than 100000 acres in Lincoln and Otero counties are now useless to the inhabitants of the dis trict.

A LOWER RATE
Of Taxation For Territorial Purposes
 This Year.

The territorial board of equalization did not quite finish its work yesterday, though it got so far along that the gen. eral result msy be outlined, says the Republican. There VII be some satis- faction in knowing that the territorial rate of taxation will not be 90 high as it was last year. It will be l.l3 and fraction, instead of LIT. The total valuation of the territory will be S39,- 083, l77.57, which is an increase of $229,346 over the valuation of last year. increase is really considerably more than is shown by the fgnres for the re- turns of last year from COchise county amounted to more than 100000 The attempt to collect taxes on that valua- tion involved the county in great deal of litigation with the mining comprnies, and in the end was unsuc- cessful. This year the county accord ingly fell back to something near it's former figures, s3,OOO, 900 less than the returns of year ago.
 The loss of the showing made by Cochise county, as well as the apparent gain for the whole territory, was made up mostly by the counties of Yavapai and Coconi ino, the former by higher assessment on mines and yhe latter by higher valuation on railroad lands.
 The returns of the cqdnties are as

Teaching by PhonOgraph.

A system of teaching the French Ian

England. Several prominent French

rying French lessons upon them. The
phonographic records are accompanied
by Il book, which contains thirty les
sons. each of which corresponds to a
photographic cylinder. and each lesson
is ingeniously Illustrated. All that the
student has to do is to set the phono-
graph i'll motion and the book will ex-
plain what the instrument is saying.
The object of this system is to give the

SINGING OF GOOD TIMES.

Let us sing about the good times in the
valieys-on the hills,
Ihe music of the mocking birds--the joy
Of all the rills;
Let us see in all the winters, where the
snow lies chill and deep.
The soil that yearns to blossom where
the flowers are safe in sleep,
Let us sing about the good times; they
are bright on plain and slope,
And all the world is ringing with the sill
very bells Of Hope;
The blue skies bend above us-the grass
is green and sweet,
And the violets spread carpet for the
falling of Loves feet.
Let us sing about the good times; they
are coming right along,
And all the world is sweeter for their
haileluia song:
And 10. for Love and living--for no
blessing Love denies,
And life's sweet thanksgiving to the
glad and answering skies!

into his ministry as physician of body

and under 200. 14.S cents, with proper

letters. triple rates for triple letters, etc.
A letter had to be written on a single
sheet, containing the superscription-en-
velopes were not permitted. A double
letter was letter containing two sheets.
and very additional sheet increased the
charge for postage. The cost of sending
single letter by packet to Europe was
22.2 cents. The standard of value in
which postage rates were computed at
that time was the spennyweight of silver,
rated at tive-ninetieths of dollar, which
accounts for the decimals in the rates
