The matter of feed is Of
tremendous Importance to the

loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get

the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according tc
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undevelOpcd, {
flesh and muscle food II they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone

Senator TilAman jumped all over Senator Spooner during an exciting time started in the senate by Senator Ieller's hot shet into the Philippine conditions. Speoner, in 8 eolloquy with Tillmar, dra gged in the lynehins 0. negroes in the south. This IS part of what he got from Tillman: Now, does the senator wish to leave the Philippine proposition, in which he is dealing with colcred people i'll most infamous and damnable and hyp- ecritical way, and go south and hold ,ham up as examples that we are deal ina with in a similar way? q mean the colored people hare at home. Ars we to have two rules of conduct in re- gard to the colored people-one in the Philippines oy which we butcher them and shoot Christianity into them and another in the south, where We are not allowed to protect our wives and chil- @renw Senator Teller got his fighting blood up by the manner in which Sen ator Lodge rushed at him, clustering all the while because of Senator Tel ler's statements concerning the Phil ippines, and said, looking Lodge straight in the eyes: T want to say that can take care of myself, here or anywhere, and am not to be. pulled or bullyragged by anybody" Senator Frye, who was in the chair, practically reprimanded those senators who had interrupted Senator Teller by reading the rule against interrupting q senator who has the floor, and expressing the hope that it would in future be cb- served by senators. That ended tho episode, in which republican senators made such a discreditable exhibition Of themselves. Such exhibitions will not prevent the facts concerning the Philippines becoming known. If Gem- ccrats cannot bring them out in the investigation thsE the committee on the Philippines has been ordered to make they will bring them out some other way.

It includes the colo nel's wife, who was Mrs CampbSl, one of the wealthiest ladies of the island. Her magnificent jewels have earned for her the sobriQuet "the Dia- nond Queen" Besides Mrs Parker the other prominent members of the party are Prince David and his wife, who was Miss Campbell. The prince was recently married in San Francisco, and on account of his personal appearance has been called Prince Cupid" They are full -blooded Hawaians with the richly coiored complexions of the race, and all of them are tall and striking in appearance.

WATERBURY's REFLECTION.

Sunday evening, February, 1902, that is the date which Waterburians of this and the future generations will look back to as bringing to our beautiful city wreck and ruin. Last evening, just as thousands were settling down to their evening meal, and as the ST Johns church chimes were pealing forth their evening carols, there came from the city hall tower the clang, boom, clang, boom. clang, boom, clang, seven strokes of the fire bell, the. Ex- change place box, and when this pea1s forth people generally look for de structive fire. They were not disap- pointed this time, for as one looks around the business center of the city to-day he realizes that there surely was a fire. Starting in at the Reid & Hughes store, the flames gradually spread north, east, south and west, until scores of stores were wiped out and millions of dollars worth of prop erty laid waste. The scene about the center during the fire was one that will never be forgotten by those who were in the vicinity. As dollar after dollar worth of property went up in smoke. the walls of anguish and expressions of sympathy could be heard on every side. Scores of Waterbury's leading merchants are prostrated, but the spirit of progress which has always been shown in this city will not desert them now, and if the good wishes and prayers of the people of this fire stricken city be of any avail, 1t will not be long until all are again under their own roofs. It is by far the most d1s- astrous fire that ever visited Water bury, or, perhaps the state. Men Wno 24 hours ago were prosperous and happy are to-day at their wits ends to know what to do. So sudden and complete was the wiping out of their p1ants that it has confused and par alyzed them for the time being. It will be only for a day, however, for the business men of Waterbury are not the kind of men that give up when an affiictIon of this sort comes upon them, and the Democrat expects and hopes to see every one of them doing business in 2 short time with renewed energy and zeal. The spirit that has made Waterbury what it is will not desert them now, and every lover of our pros- porous community should put ms shoulder to the wheel and aid and as- sist in the work of rebuilding the burnt district. The Democrat offers it's deep est sympathy to the merchants ana others who have been, as it were. burned out of home.

The senate committee on commerce

The senate committee on commerce has authorized q favorable report on the Hanna Frye ship subsidy bill by strict party vote, every democrat on the committee voting against it. Sen ator Frye makes the most extrava- gant claims for the bill, and in the main his coIlea gues are obliged to take his word in the matter, as there is probably no other man in the senate who can tell just how the bill will work when put in practice. It now
 seems probable that the bill will pass the senate unusx pressure of the party lash, but 1t is very doubtful if 1t can get through the house. Every demo- crat in the house will vote against it

GROUNDHOG DAY.
Indications of Candlemas Are That
 Winter is Over


 Winter is Over.
 The passing of groundhog day Is an event of annual interest and an yestar- day was the day, it is safe to say that no grounding, nor any other sort of hog 1n this section saw his shadow. Consequently the little animal was not Frightened at something he could not see and remained outside his hola drinking In the moist beauties of the day. This seems to settle it in ac- cordance with the old saw that winter is ended and will not again appear during this year.
 The Candlemas rhymes agree with the ground hob predictions, as for sn- stance:
 If Candlemas day be fair and bright. Winter will have another flight. But if perchance should snow or rain. Winters gone-won't come again. The day fitted the predictions all around, and 1t now remains for the weather and the predictions to meet on common ground.
