Look Alter the Hogs swiu.

Sun-baked swill in filthy barrels;
swill that is fermented into the
sharpest acid and putrefed into a
disgusting mass; swill that attracts
myriads of carrion-loving flies, is not
fit for the hogs. 1t is full of MAS
ma and disease germs of various
kinds and hence it is dangerous to
feed it. Pleasantly soured swi1l,
swill that is mildly acid is all right,
but il should not be allowed to pass
that stage before it is frd; anc in
hot weather it gets past that stage
very quickly. 1t is not easy to look
after such things carefully in the
rush of all kinds of work, and some
cannot receive such suggestions with
patience, which, is not surprising, but
for all that it will pay to give some
thoughts to the pigs. 1t will not be
regretted at their harvest time

WAS BURIED TO-DAY
Business Suspended and Schools Clos
 ed During Funeral at Litchfeld.

Litchfield, Sept 15.-Men of national as well as state prominence attended the funeral this afternoon of ex-Gov- ernor Charles B. Andrews, late chief justice of the supreme court of Con- necticut. The honorary pail bearers were men who were associated with Judge Andrews in q professional and social way in his long service of the state, and besides these there were present others we'll known throughout Connecticut who journeyed to Litch- field to pay tribute of respect to the memory of the distinguished jurist.
 In this village there was a general observance of the occasion. business being suspended and the schools .los- ed. The court house and the office of Judge And.aws were draped in black.
 On account of lameness. Mrs An drews was unable to attend tue pub- lie service in the Episcopal church, and a private service was therefore held at the family residence half an hour before the body was removed to the church. Shortly before 80 tic pail bearers assembled at the resi- dence and escorted the remains to 5. Michael's church where the ser vice was conducted by Rev F. o. Seymour, DID,, rector of the church, the Episcopal ritual being followed. The choir rendered s'Nearer My God, to Thee as the opening hymn and just before the coffin was borne out to it's burial place, sang In the Hour of Trial" Tn the procession which ac- oompanied the body were state off, cials, members of the bar from various cities, and prominent citizens of vari- ous callings.
 The pail bearers were United States Stnator O. H. Platt, Judge Dwight Loomis, Judge Arthur F. Eggleston, Isaac W. Brooks of Torrington, George M. Woodruff of Litchfeld, Judge James Huntington of Woodbury, Maurice Seymour of Bridgeport and the judges of the supreme court. In- terment was in the East cemetery of Iitchfield

NEW YORHS SUBWAY
Is Only Three Fifths Completed
 It Is Said.
And Yet it Has Cost s21, 100000 and Twenty Four Human Lives Have Been Lost-It Will Require Another Year to Complete the Work

New York, Sept 15.-After an ex- penditure of $21,00O,000 and the loss or 24 human lives the rapid transit subway under construction in this city, is according to the World ex- actly three-ffths completed. This statement of she stage of progress is based on data compiled in the otfice of Chief Engineer Parsons.
 The principal means of reckoning how much has been accomplished and how much remains to be done is the amount of money which has been ex- pended. When the workmen were last paid off S21, 1,OOo,0 GOO in round numbers had been distributed. or three-ffths of the $35, 100000 for which John B. Mcdonald contracted to build the tunnel. The estimate based on these figures is borne out by study of the detailed reports of progress on the various sections. It is estimated that the completion of the work will occupy at least another year.
 There have only two notable dis asters to call mention to the danger to life involved in the great undertaking. These cost the number of lives men, toned. The men in charge of the work are of the opinion that they have been fortunate thus far in reducing the peril to life and limb to the min mum. They say that after millions of people have been walking, driving and riding in street cars for two years on the brink of an excavation extend- ing for for miles through the city, and thousands of men have been employed in hazardous underground work. the wonder is that the list of victims is not mush longer.
 < It has been necessary to excavate 5000, ,OOO cubic yards of solid rock, and for months the contractors have been using one and one-half tons of dyna- mite day for blasting.
 It is promised that New York will begin to recover from it's torn up con- dition within a short time Only 3 few blocks here and there remain to be excavated, and several sections of the tunnel are nearly completed.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.
Eleven People Are Dead and Two
 Hundred More Homeless

Portland, Ore, Sept 15.-Driven rom their homes in the darkness of the night by raging forest fire, which swept every thing before 1t from Ariel. Cowlitz county, Washington, to the foot of Mount St Helens, a distarce or 70 miles, Il people are dead, four are missing and more than 200 people have been left homeless, many with not even clothes enough to cover their nakedness. The dead in Cow Htz county, as far as known, are:
 D. U. Wallace, wife and two chiI- dren; 12 year old son of MT Hanlty: John Pollick, his brother and child: w. E. Newhouse; Mrs Garves; f sur men who were working on claim be- longing to James Hawthorne have noT been found and it is thought they are dead Fifty or sixty people were camped at the lake at the foot of Mount St Helens and have not been heard from since the fire.
 The first news of the devastation was brought to this city by Milo II. Dimmick, who experienced many diff faculties in making the trip to send aid to the sufferers. He reached here last night. From his description the suffering there is great and the devas- tatfon is the most appalling of any that has been reported. For stretch of 25 miles, he says, there are but two houses standing. The fine timber on which these people expected to realize has all been destroyed. The fire canlc upon them in the night and entirely unexpectedly.
 q had scarcely time to get to the river myself" said Dimmfcw, "when the flames were upon me, and if l had undertaken to save anyone else, I would not have escaped"
 While immersed in the river Dim- mick saw one of the grandest but most appalling sights of his life.
 "Great balls of fire would roll up like eannonba1ls." said he, "and then burst with a mighty roar. I have never heard noise to compare with it.''
 As soon as the fire had passed over him he rushed to Tneighboring house but found that the family had been driven from home and had escaped death. When morning came ne sci out to bring in relief. The bridges were all burned the roads were ob- structed by trees that had fallen across them so that his progress was very slow.

HIS BACK BROKEN
Edward Murphy Met With Serious Ac-
 cident This Morning.


 Edward Murphy. who boards at the Brooklyn hotel and is employed by W. H. Scott & Go, met with an acci- dent this morning which may prove fatal. He was backing a team out from under shed in Scott's yard and he raised his head sooner than he ought to, thinking that he was out from under the shed. His back struck the edge of the roof of the shed and was broken in the middle. He was re- moved to his home, but later was talk en to the hospital in J H. Mulville's ambulance. At the hospital he was examined by Dr Maloney, who found that his back had been broken in the middle and that he was paralyzed from the waist down. 1t cannot be stated definitely whether his spinal cord is permanently injured or not un- til an operation shall have been per formed upon him this afternoon.

Members of the Force Say the Police
 mans Lot is None Too Happy
 With Superior Officers on One Side
 aud the Public on the Other Their
 Lot is rIard Enough.
 The time limit for the patrolmen Of Waterbury to have themselves ex- amined by the pol4ce surgeon regarding their physical ability is up and the re- port will be looked for with consider able interest. While it is not expected that it will result in making any va cancies on the force, still the order has occasioned no little anxiety and 1t IS said to have practicaily paralized the department since it was passed,th men deyoting a large share of their time to discussing the probable outcome of the examination. It seeL-s to be gen, erally admitted that Waterbury has too much of this kind of business for the good of the public and it looks as if there was some truth in the allega, tion, for if reports be true several acts of violence have been committed during the past few weeks which the police department know nothing about beyond what appeared in the papers. Were all at sea, said one of the policemen to a reporter yesterday, Sand if the board and the officers keep nagging us pretty soon we won't know where we are at. You might be surprised to hear that most of the officers look upon the pa- trolmen as inferior beings and make practice of going out of their way to show them that they are under their thumb. Crimes are guarded as secret ly from the men as they are from the public, so that about all we know re- garding what is going on outside of what comes under our own eyes is what we see in the papers. They don't want to have Us know these things fearing, l suppose, that we might make big catch ahead of those who are detailed for. that purpose. Then again they have no respest for an O. cerSs word. Why when you tell them the whole truth So far as you know they think you are withholding something. This has tendency to dis gust good men and in consequence the results are not always as satisfactory as they would be if deserving men got the kind of treatment, they are entitled to. They are constantly casting up the alleged short comings of men whom they claim ought not to be on the force and talk as if what was true of them might be said of all. I don't know any man on the force that is not doing his duty. If the board or the officers do, why don't they prefer charges against them? The trouble with the patrolmen so far as I can see is that they have too many bosses. The men are snubbed at every possible op- portunity and on this account many of them are not rendering the service they would if the treatment were differ ent."
 1T this be true things are in a bad mess in the police department and the board should carry the work of reform further than the physical examination already ordered. It is true that the pest results cannot be attained by faultfnding. Such conduct makes men indifferent and often prompts employees to hinder rather than help those who have charge over them.

A
 Obliged to Use Reyolvers
 San Francisco, Sept 15.-There was a lively riot last night at the entrance to the Presidio reservation. Police Lieutenant Kelly with seven patrol men raided the saloon of Press Ander- son and arrested thirty three soldiers and ten civilians who were playing poker. Anderson was refused n- cense recently, but has been running his place in defiance of the law. While the police were making the ar- rests a crowd of soldiers gathered and assailed them with sticks, stones and brickbats. The police wielded their clubs vigorously but with little effect and were finally forced to fire into the uniformed mob. So far as k1town, however, no one was hit. While the riot was at it's height an alarm was sounded at the Presfdio and three companies of infantry and one of cav airy were sent to the scene. They succeeded in driving most of the riot CTS back into the reservation, but not without considerable trouble, the men not being disposed to yield, even to su- perfor force For time it looked as though fatal conflict was inevitable. but order was finally restored The forty three prisoners were taken in pa- trol wagons to the police station.
