The Choral society has decided to
give concert the last week in April.
The program will consist of some of
the choruses from the Festival music,
one or two lighter selections, and solos
by local talent. The chorus is not as
strong in membership as last season,
and has been unfortunate In having some
very bad weather on rehearsal evenings,
but in spite of all hindrances has done
excellent work, and with few more
Ill rehearsals will be able to give very
efsuttabio Concert. Any organization
which has for its object the study
of good music is good thing for
a community and deserves the
hearty support of the people. The
coming concert will give music-lovers
and all others an opportunity to show
by their liberal patronage their interest
in maintaining a musical society in our
midst. Owing to the concert In the
Century club course, which occurs next
Wednesday evening, the next choral
rehearsal will occur Friday evening

TALKED ABOUT GOOD ROADS,.
County Commissioners Meet State Road
Official in Middlebury.


The road commissioners of the county
held a successful meeting in the recep-
ton room at the Addison Tuesday, State
Highway Commissioner j. o. Sanford of
Stamford presiding. That Add S on
county Is coming into line on the subject
of good roads was shown by an attend
ance of 81 people at the meeting, 10 of
the % towns in the county sending their
commissioners. The morning session was
taken up by Mr.. Sanford, who said in
part that the people were gradually awak-
ening to their needs and that most of
the men having charge of the roads were
doing good work, making permanent
roads wherever possible, even if less
number of rods were gone over than
under the old system. He deplored the
fact that politics frequently drove a COM
missioner out CT office ust as he was
becoming useful by experience, but cited
the fact that in this county only four
changes were made in the past year. lie
showed by his record that the commits
sioners of Addison county had served
from one to eight years. He told the
meeting that the first requisite for per-
feet road was drainage, and that unless
roads were properly drained he should
not pay state money for work done
Proper foundation of stone, laid by hand
comes next; surfacing and finishing fol,
lows. No piece of road would be paid
for unless it is properly completed. Use
the best material at hand, he said. While
the road machine is the most useful i'm
plement in road making, it is frequently
abused, especially in cutting down the
shoulders of the road and scraping back
into the bed the worn out, dead dirt. from
the sides and bitches, which is dust il
dry times and paste after rain. MIR
Sanford read extracts from the reports
of the state commissioners in Massachu
setts and Connecticut, proving many Of
his statements. He also had carefully
prepared and had printed tabulatet
statement of the work of different kinds
done by each town in the state. Thes'
books and circular letter of Instruction.
and suggestions were distributed.
A general discussion by those presen
followed the remarks of Mr.. Sanford
Those who were in attendance felt wei
paid for coming, as each learned some
thing from the exchange of ideas.

A. E.lt,,1 Arro-

A few days ago a very wild goose,
weighing sixteen pounds, was shot and
killed by hunter on the shores OF
Lake Liberty. about twelve miles from
Spokane. Wash. The hunter was sur
prised to see a piece of polished ivory
protruding from the breast of the goose
about two inches. The flesh had
grown tightly around 1t and the wound
had entirely healed. 1t was long,
sharp arrow point, about eight inches
long and as large as an ordinary lead
pencil. Delicate carvings were on the
ivory where 1t had been attached to
the arrow stick. Evidently the bird
had borne the arrowpoint from the far
arctic regions where 1t had been shot
by some Eskimo hunter. The goose
was full-grown male and had prob
ably received the wound long time
ago. j..

GREAT USE OF BANANAS.
Immen.e Amount of the Fruit Annually
Consumed In This Countsy.

Immense Amount of the Fruit Annually
Consumed In This Country.
How largely the toothsome bananas
and the festive cocoanut enter into the
dietary of the American people may be
judged by the fact that the United
Fruit company alone. during the past
year, distributed in the United States
and Canada, approximately. no less
than 17,5OO,O0O punches of bananas and
13, 100000 cocoanuts, in addition to
other tropical fruits. Sixty ocean-go-
ing steamers were engaged exclusively
in the banana trade.
Estimating not over 100 good ba-
nanas to bunch, these figures show
an average consumption Of more than
twenty bananas for every man. wom-
an and child In the United States. and
a few millions extra for good boys and
girls. But an attempt to divide up the
cocoanuts per capita will probably get
us into trouble. for. while the bulk Is
enormous, 1t means only one cocoanut
to every half-dozen persons. enough for
all. perhaps, II the division were made
on strictly equitable principles.-Les-
lies Weekly.

New Coal Mine. in Scotland.

Many of the older coal mines in
Scotland are becoming exhausted and
new fields are being sought. Recently
coal has been discovered on four es-
tates in Fifeshire. The total acreage
of these estates is given as 6,61s. with
an annual rent roll Of 100000. The
price paid for the property by the new
coal mining owners was $s30.000. So
great is the activity in the Fife coal
district at present that additional har-
Dor accommodation has had to be pro-
yided at Burntisland and Methil.

women in the Public Service.

Germany seems to place value on
the services of women different from
that which holds in France. In the
latter country orders have been issued
to cut down the number of women
employees in public service, especially
in the postal service, as rapidly as
possible. the reasons given being gen.
eral incompetency, continual absence
on account of illness and similar
things In Germany, on the contrary,
the authorities of the state railways
have announced that henceforth as
many women as possible will be en-
ployed In service, and that women in
the future will be eligible to posts at
the telegraph and ticket Offices, in the
telephone Offices and as clerks in the
counting Offices and freight depart
ment. Prussia has for some years
favored the employment of women,
and this order will bring about like
conditions throughout the whole en-
pire.

Mr.. Jones was a man of wealth and

that Sam Wells, Jones' confidential
clerk, stepped into his employers
private Office and found that gentle
man tying up a minute package with
great care and with evident enjoyment.
Looking up at last from this pleasant
occupation, he said, gleefully:
Now, what do you suppose I've got
here, Mr.. Wells?"

"It's a present, Mr.. Wells" he an
nounced, rubbing his hands, "a
Thanksgiving present for a dear old
couple"
Indeed" remarked Sam, aloud. In
wardly he said. so the old duffer is
going to do something decent and lib
eral for change"
Eyes, a Thanksgiving present." his
face glowing with the warmth of his
generous impulses. "to dear old cou-
pie who are dreadfully poor-old
friends, with whom my wife and l
always dine on Thanksgiving day.
Now, what do you think 1t is?" pat
ting the package affectionately.
"Oh, I couldn't guess. Mr.. Jones"
"Try. They have invited us to din
ner every Thanksgiving for years.
"Well," hazarded Sam, according to
the New York Times. II suppose you
are sending the old gentleman hand
some scarfpin and the old lady pair
of sleeve buttons or a brooch. Am
right?"
"No-no." shaking his head and rub
bing his hands unctuously, mot ex-
actly. I shall have to tell you. You
see, we have gone to dinner there so
often, and the dear old people are so
poor that thought it would be good

turned its back upon France at the
bidding of an inhospitable law. Some
of the books are very old. dating back
200 or 300 years. The signatures of

THE QUICK AND THE DEAD.
witty story Told ut banquet Givor
At WnshInK ton.


At Washington.
Public assemblies in New York and
Washington are discovering that Mr..
Milton E. Allies, the assistant secretary
of the treasury, has graceful abilities
as an after-dinner speaker. says the
Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post.
Recently, at a Knights Templar
gathering, he was the first called upon
at the conclusion OF the banquet. He
had been notified that he would be
asked to make few remarks. but. not
wishing to deliver set speech, he
had asked to be placed toward the
bottom of the list. and had understood
that that was to be the arrangement.
He had therefore relied on the speak
ers that were to precede him to fur
nish him material for impromptu
comment.
Though somewhat disconnected by
the unexpected summons of the chair
man, Mr.. Allies rose to the occasion.
There is some mistake" said he.
Sin my being called upon at this stage
of the proceedings. and the incident
reminds me of an epitaph which en-
Joys local fame in my native village
in Ohio. At the death of an eccentric
citizen it was learned that he had him
self written out and intrusted to
marble cutter the legend that was to
be craven on his tombstone.
when the lettering was completed
the villagers all went out to view the
epitaph, and this Is how 1t read:
81 expected this. but not 80 soon.'"
