dignified manner. I now wish to offer
 an apology and supplement with words of compliments the manner in which I
 attacked our honorable governor dur ing the last campaign and wish to make a statement that l consider him one of the greatest governors the state of Con- necticut has ever had. (Applause.) His position is one of the greatest democ- racy.
 We need here the services of many men to look after our interests I want the men who control this convention to remember what it was that brought their party into existence. It was jus tiec and right and I would ask them to do what is just and right in regard to this question of representation. I do not want the hymn My Country Tis of Thee written out of the hymn book Let us be guided by that hymn and we will do we'll"
 MT. Osborn thanked the delegation for their attention and said that this convention and his association with it had made him a wiser man.
 He sat down amid great applause
 After the conclusion of Mir Osborn's address on q resolution of Mr Merritt of Stamford an adjournment was taken until 1:45.
 Charles Hopkins Clark of Hartford followed Colonel Osborn, speaking along similar lines. ''I would not cast a vote" said MT Clark ito deprive any town of representation according to districts if we can not get anything bet ter but look al the districts of to-day. They are entirely out of proportion It is absolutely indefensible that small town with only a thousand or two of population should have one or two rep resentatives as the case may be-"
 MT. Perry of Fairfield advocated the plan of one representative for each town, saying that if the system was good for a constitutional convention, ne thought it ought to be good enough for a legislature.
 MT Perry declared himself in favor of larger senate.

A RARE TREAT

For Students of the Bible and Others.
 The lecture to be given next week Thursday evening, January 23, by Dwight l.. Elmenoorf will be of the greatest interest to those engaged in a study of Biblical history and life in the Holy Land. MT. Elmendorf will give an account of his trip last spring from Joppa to Galilee. He was in the party with pr. Newman Smyth of this city, the late Dr. Maltbie D. Babcock of New York, and other distinguished clergy men, and he took many very fine views with the new telephoto camera. These illustrations to his lecture show just what people want to see and give a very clear idea of the scenes of the life of Christ. The address is to be given in Harmonic hall.
 Prominent New Haven people who have attended Mr. Elmendorf's recent lectures in Brooklyn say they are of surpassng interest. The views are su- herb,

tative but would undoubtedly, under
 the next cencus, be entitled to two, but the people of Hamden would be per- fectly willing to sacrifice an additional representative if such a sacrifice would do justice and was the will of the peo,
 pie. Mr. Webb was bitter in his at
 tack on the proposition of enlarging
 the senate. This proposition" said
 MT Webb, lis an unheard of thing, and
 something entirely foreign to what we
 were Sent here to decide. The senate
 has always been the conservative body of the people, and if we were to do this unheard of thing we would be held up to the ridicule of the whole world. If I am allowed to look on the political side of your refusal to give representation according to population I predict an overwhelming defeat for the republican party at the next election"
 MT. Bartlett of Simsbury followed MT. Webb. In referring to MT. Davenport's historical address he said that he un- derstood the gentleman from Bridge port to say that Massachusetts border town in the early history of the state were annexed to Connecticut in the same manner as the United States an- nexed Porto Rico and the Philippine Islands This statement" said the speaker, "set my blood to boiling. It should be understood now that we did not send soldiers to the border towns and fight the people into submission as the United States is now doing in the Philippine Islands, and then refuse them representation" MT. Bartlett spoke strongly against increased repre- sentaion. At the conclusion of his ad- dress at 3 D. m. an adjournment was taken until Tuesday.

A HAPPY SURPRISE.

A complete surprise was given We'd nesday evening to MT and Miss Lupton at their large residence on East Broad way, Stratford, by the Musical Art club of New Haven. A very enjoyable time was had by the thirty-four members present The event of the evening was the exquisite singing in Italian by Miss Lupton of the Jewel Song from Faust and "O Cara Mic" accompanied with the flute by Signor Marco Chomberg, of New York The flute and voice blended so perfectly that it was difficult to tell them apart Miss Lupton is a conserv- atory graduate and possesses a remark ably sweet voice. After enjoying an oyster roast all departed on the mid night train.

Healthy Women

are few in these days of stren- uous living; overwork, worry, household cares, society duties, one or more of which falls to the lot of every woman, make inroads upon the female con- stitution that are bound to re- suit in serious trouble unless guarded against.
 It is much more important that women should safeguard their health than it is for the other sex; first, because their organization is more delicate; and second because on them depends the health of future generations.
 A wineglassful of Johann HOff's Extract taken regu- larly with meals is the best health insurance woman can have.
 It is natures own remedy, giving perfect digestion aud assimilation of food without which no one can be we'll and vigorous. It makes rich, red blood and heaYthy flesh, nerves are made stronger by it, catarrhal secretions of the entire body are removed by 1t, it makes the troubles pe- culiar to women easy to bear, it keeps the stomach in per- feet condition previous to confinement, there is no bet ter tonic and nutrient for nurs- ing mothers than Johann Hoff's Extract.
 If you are weak and worn out, have headache, backache, bearing down, your system needs a nutritive tonic - a builder, strength giver. l

 It is not a stimulant which excites the nerve centers, giving temporary buoyancy, only to leave them in worse condition than before.
