MONDAYS 4ow. ELECTIONS.

Next Monday elections will be held in 162 of the 16S towns of the State. the exceptions being Hartford. New Haven, Bridgeport, Ansonia, Derby and Nauga- tuck. Hope springs eternal in the Democratic breast, and so the Hartford Times thus cries in the wilderness: Preparatory to the general State cleo ton in November, it is the duty of Democratic town committees through out Connecticut to give careful atten- tion this fall to getting out the party vote in the little town elections on Monday next. It is essential to get the party into line for November, and it is equally important that every Demo- crat shall not only have voice in choosing officials for the administra- tion of town affairs, but also in the choice of the local boards of registration of voters.
 Essential and important are good words. It will be interesting to see how the Democrats get into line. Just now their line seems to be of the zig-zag kind.

and Conlat's eolIleries. In Natal the Dundee district is at present the best developed area. and here the seams reach four feet six inches in thickness, and yield coal of good quality. Fur ther north, between Dundee and Inga- zane. prospecting operations have re- vealed seams of good coal up to six feet in thickness which were in pro- cess of development when the war broke out. In the Newcastle district both the quality of the coal and the thickness of the seams are exceedingly variable. In Rhodesia the coal field is situated about 1SO miles northwest of Bulawayo, and is known to extend over 400 square miles. The seams vary from five feet to sixteen feet in width, and as the coal lies within forty feet of the surface it will be worked by means or inclines instead of shafts. In so large an area the quality naturally varies but it is claimed that the coal is bet ter than that now in use in Cape Col ony, Natal, and the Transvaal. In Zululand coal prospecting has been car rled on upon the coast to the south of the Umlalazi river, but without satis- factory results.

REASONABLE RULES.

The husband of Mrs. Dora Sutton of Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, is getting some sympathy to which he is not en- titled. Mrs Sutton has been married to him several years, and she knows him better than anybody else. She knows him so well that she decided the other day that the only way she could teach him anything was by giving him a lesson. So she quietly and yet firmly left him. This did the business, as she knew it would, and MT. Sutton became properly repentant. But his repentance didn't fool her a bit. She didn't go back to home and love. She sat down and prepared a set of rules which she would have him adopt before she would go back. They were eleven in number, and he was to write at the foot of each rule promise and VOW to keep it and walk in the same all the days of his life. The rules were as follows: i. Get up at without my calling you. 2. Pro- vide material for one cake 8 week. 3. Provide material for pies each week. f. Twenty-Five cents worth of beef Tues days and Saturdays 5. Clothes for you that will make you look attractive and clean. 6. You will not use vulgar or profane language at all. '. You will go to church and Sunday school at Wyo- ming, and not make my life burden to get you there in time. s. Remove 1 all mothers things and her COW, as I cannot tend the latter. g. Buy us one quart of milk day. 10, Ruth must not peddle, buy or carry things. II. Wipe your feet clean when you come into the house.
 These rules didn't meet MT. Sutton's approval, and we believe that some handmade court has decided that he need not adopt them and live by them. He is also supported in his attitude by some men who do not know the beauty
 and the value of a good, well-regulated
 home. But of course the rules are en-
 tirely reasonable, and MT. Sutton would
 do we'll to come under them and stay there. He had treasure in Mrs Sut-
 ton, and he didn't know enough to know

ASURPRTSED MAN.

There is a surprised man in Greater Now York His name is William Dick inson and he is a Brooklyn member or the Board of Aldermen. Yesterday he was arrested for bribery. The charge is not of the ordinary character. It is based on a letter written by him to John McGaw Woodbury, Commissioner of Street Cleaning. The letter is as fol- lows: Dear Sir-If you will retnstate Antonio Covino, who I think was too severely punished by being dismissed from your department, will vote and otherwise help you to obtain the money needed for a new plant in Brooklyn. Commissioner Woodbury1 received this letter Wednesday, and after digesting it's contents and thinking the matter over he took it to District Attorney Jerome. Then he and Mir. Jerome call ed on Mayor Low and had a talk with him about the case. After this confer ence it was decided to proceed against 
 Dickinson. He was proceeded against yesterday, and his bail was fixed at $2,5OO.
 Alderman Dickinson says he didn't think it was wrong to write such a let ter and he was very much surprised when he found that it had got him into trouble. Others who figure in New York politics will be surprised to see
 that such letter is really considered to be wrong. It will be interesting to
 see how Alderman Dickinson comes out. Reform seems to be working in New York, though it doesn't seem to
 have struck the Police department very
 hard yet.

A South African correspondent tells how cleverly the Boer Commandant. Kritzinger, made use of his knowled - of English in the recent war On one occasion he galloped up to blockhouse and declared that he was in command of couple of squadrons of Marshalps Horse and was being hotly pursued by Kritzinger himself so well did he tell his story that the blockhouses actually, held up the advance of the pursuing column of English with heavy fire. Riding up one evening to blockhouse, dressed in an English captains costume and at tended by two orderlies, he announced that the column to which he was at taehed would pass through at mid- night on night march, and they were on no account to fire on it. He selected the spot at which he would cross, and insisted on absolute silence being ob- served. T think we have Kritzinger correred now" he remarked cheerily. .And so 'elp me-" said the crestfallen non-ccinmissioned officer next morning when he found out his mistake, If I didn't salute i'm. and the men give i'm cheer as e rode off,

COAL LIA SOUTH AFRICA.

It is mildly encouraging to know that there is coal in South Africa even if there isn't any in New Haven. With regard to the coal supply in South Africa some instructive facts are con- tained in statement which has just been furnished to the British Board of Trade by the Imperial Institute. From this it appears that in Cape Colony the coal-producing areas may be divided into four districts, the first comprising the largest coal mine in the Colony, the Indwe, which furnishes about half the total output The second consists of the Cyphergat, Wallsend, Fairview, and Sterkstroonl The third contains the mines in the Molteno district, and the fourth is the smallest, including Romansfontein.

A curious instance of the transmits sion of sound through the earth was noticed by two French engineers at Kef. They happened to be in an ex- cavation in a volcano in the Dyr moun- tains which has been extinct from time innmenlorial. The altitude of the exca- vation was about 3,400 feet above the sea level. Suddenly they heard the sounds of heavy cannonading, the re- ports following at regular intervals. Returning to Ref a day or two later, they read in the papers that in the course of some naval maneuyers the French fleet on the day and at the hour at which they had heard the reports had been engaged in bombarding Bizer- ta. The sound, therefore, must have been transmitted through the earth from Bizerta to Dyr, a distance of somewhat over hundred miles.
