Officer Mansfield of Waterbury is not the only man who has contradicted himself on the witness stand when testifying in his own behalf. It is a singular fact that, as a rule, lawyers and policemen and such others as are best acquainted with methods of courts and the willy ways of prosecuting at torneys, make the poorest witnesses The best witnesses are ,oftentimes the very persons who never saw the inside of a court room until called to give testimony.-Ansonia Sentinel.
 Yes, and you don't want to believe all you read in some papers about Officer Mansield's testimony either. The general impression among those who are not biased is that he made 8 capital witness, and the opinion also is, that he is a capable officer. It must be remembered that he was in a try ing position, place that an older and more experienced officer would not consider picnic. Notwithstanding all this one of Waterbury's best known citizens and a manufacturer for years said of Officer Mansfield "That he saw nothing in his conduct to lead him to think he was an inefficient officer and he never saw the policeman mixing in with disorderly crowds" No matter what the verdict of the board of safety will be the, evidence of Earl Smith frees Officer Mansfield from neglect of duty or wrong doing ill the minds of those who heard and read it.

The Manchuria affair seems to have stirred up the whole world more than any international matter that has come forward in a long time. A writer on New York paper, referring to Eng lands attitude, says Russia might re- tort to England something like this: ''We will evacuate Manchuria the day you evacuate Egypt. You got your foothold there upon the pretense that you were needed to restore peace to the dominions of the khedive. You have been asked repeatedly by our friends of the French republic to fix the date for your evacuation of the country, and you give no answer. Yet you know that you never would have been al- lowed to enter the country with an armed force, except upon the plea of temporary necessity for your presence there You insinuate that we are ly- ing when we speak of evacuating Man. churia next September. If we were. we would have a notable precedent for that in your lie about Chitrali. You bought the right of way to that dis trict by a pledge to the hill tribes on your frontier that you would return from 1t after punishing the wrongs in ficted on your subjects. How you kept that promise the world Is aware. If you do not like what we have done and are doing in and for Manchuria, then stop us by force of arms, but do not nauseate us by an appeal to princi- pies you never respected when they stood in the way of your ambitions.

States like New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Pennsyl- vania, Minnesota, Michigan and Wis consin, says the bureau of forestry, which are working out for themselves some sort of forest policy, find it abso- lutely essential to take stock of their timber lands. Michigan has begun such an examination, through co-opera- ton between the state forest commits sion, the university authorities, and the bureau of forestry. A study already made of 60,OOO acres of forest preserve lands in northern Michigan by T. H. Sherrard, of the bureau of forestry, re suited in recommendation for fire pro- lection experiments and for tree plant ing, which have been submitted to the state legislature. California has ap- propriated $15, 1000 for an examination of the forests of Texas has been pre- pared under direction of the bureau of forestry and will probably form when published the basis for forest legisla- tion in the state. Several years ago the forests of the northern part of Wis consin were examined by Hilbert Roth of the bureau and his report was pub lished by the bureau and by the state. Prof J. G. Jack of the bureau two years ago made an examination of the forests of Vermont, and the work was continued more recently by Prof c. D. Howe. Virginia may ask the bureau for help in mapping and studying the forests of the state, and Missouri has expressed interest in an examination of the forests of several counties. Recommendations for forest preserves before going before the legislature must be supported by reliable studies of the forest growth on the areas which it is proposed shall be reserved. New Hampshire, alarmed by the heavy cut ting in the White mountains, has ap- propriated $5,0OO for an examination of that region by the bureau of fores- try, and an examination of the forest lands on Long Island may form a part of the summers work of the bureau.

TO CAPTURE HAITI.

Overtures have recently been made to William Pickens, the we'll known Yale colored man, who captured the Ten Eyck prize ill February, looking to his active participation in the move ment, which has its headquarters in Kentucky, for the establishment of an Afro-American empire in the Caribbean sea, says the New Haven Leader.
 Dhe movement has developed to a considerable extent in the south and is progressing through some of the north ern states. The scheme Is to effect a conquest of the island of Hayt1, which under present conditions is in state of revolution most of the time. The American negroes believe this can be done and that a government can be es- tablished there which will be Utopian in character. ,e...
 The junta of the, movement is To- cated in sturgis, Ky. and from the cor respondent of that society, N. L. Mus grove, MT Pickens has received a re- quest for the latter to enlist his ser vices in behalf of the enterprise. The Kentucky correspondent suggests that MT Pickens act as secretary and board member in this section, and says fur ther that the Yale man might eventu- ally be chosen as president of the so- ciety. The Kentucky members are in his favor. It Is also suggested that he take the lecture platform and raise funds for the organization. All the money received is to be devoted to the equipment of an army, the purchase and lease of a warship, transports pro- visions, etc. One scheme outlined is to attack Port au Prince. the capital of Hayti. If the expedition is successful 1t Is believed that the island might be placed under the protection of the United States. l,-.
 Innovations and novelties in the mAaEods of government are proposed by the Sons of Freedom to be in op~ eration after Hayti has been overcome. While the government will be republi- can in It's political formation. it is vet to be administered as a gigantic cor poration. of which all members of the society are to be stockholders All land titles and franchises are to vest in the state, no penitentiaries or iails to be maintained, yet the criminal class is to be summarily and uniquely dis posed of, All dangerous and incorrigi- ble criminals will be provisioned and set adrift on the sea to seek other shores. Agriculture. manufacturing and all other profitable industries are to be encouraged. Public schools are to be established and liberty is to be widespread, but the rights of each in- dividual is to be bounded by the equal right of every other. The Kentucky correspondent tells Mir Pickens: "Thus the nation, individually and collective ly, given the proper environment. such as country and conditions, should lift itself from servile dependency and pow erty to one of the richest. most inde- pendent and progressive Of the world, and it is to such young and verile men of the race as yourself that the people should look to to carry out the noble dream of empire"

MIR DILLoN's GENEROSITY. :
New Haven Man Treats Nine Hundred
 Boys and Girls.


 Boys and Girls.
 John Dillon, of the wholesale pro duce firm of Dillon & Douglass, of New Haven, arrived in town yesterday afternoon, says the Bridgeport Tele- gram, and proceeded to enjoy himself ln characteristic fashion. When passing Graves ice cream pdrlors on Main street he saw a number of street boys outside cycling the interior with hungry looks. Mir Dillon invited the boys into the ice cream parlors to take ace cream at his expense and a dozen or more accepted. Others followed until 36 were seated at the tables, guests of MT Dillon, who supplied the youngsters with ice cream until they were satisfied. Then he gave each boy quarter of a dollar and sent them out.
 But the work of benevolence had on- ly begun. The boys scattered in all directions, and in an incredibly short time a crowd of boys and girls had assembled in front of the place.
 The doors were thrown open, two policeman stood on guard and MT Dillon played the host in royal style The boys and girls were admitted in squads of 25 to 30 at a time. Mir Dillon took possession of the place with his unique collection of guests and held it for i've hours until 900 boys and girls had been treated to ice cream.
 The street was filled for nearly a block by boys and girls of all ages, and mostly of the street class, as man was treating the boys to free blow out of ice cream down to Graves" the youngsters fiocked there from all parts of the city and from o'clock until 10 or after the place was thronged with children. They worked all sorts of games to get double portions. Boys would come out and walk down block, change hats, go down another street and hurry back to the store from a different direction and go in as new boys.
 In his generosity Mrs Dillon. began to distribute money among the child ren A dime to this one, q quarter to that one and finally when his sup ply of small change ran out he gave several little fellows half a dollar each. ,...
 Outside the boys began to compare notes. a.
 ''How much did youse git. JimmieF' asked one little urchin of a colnpan- ion.
 sixty cents," was the joyous reply
 Gee. but dat duck is dead easy, said another youngster." "He gin me 90 cents.
 "How many times did youse go in!' asked his companion.
 "Four times" said the boy. -
 "How many times did youse go inF' sSThree times, and I was go1n' ID again but a big cop nailed me ana l got fred" said the youngster.
 One little girl with smiling race came out holding in her chubby mana bright half dollar: ,.,-
 It was a merry night for the iletle folks and one they will not soon for oct and it cost MT Dillon of New Ha- ven upwards of $200 in cold cash 10 nlay the host, but he seemed to enjoy the fun fully as did his little guests

WOMAN AND THE PROVERBS.
Crimes of Which an International
 Jury Has Convicted her.

Crimes of Which an International .# Jury Has Convicted her.
 Wonderful similarity exists in the sayings about women current in the various nations.
 The spanish rhyme has it: "Were a woman as little as she is good, a pea pod would make her a gown and a hood.'
 An old English saying: ''If a man lose a woman and a farthing he will be sorry he lost the farthing."
 The French adage: "A man of straw Is worth woman of gold.''
 The German: '"There are only two good women in the world-one dead and the other can't be found"
 The Scotch say: Honest men mar ry soon, wise men never"
 In Fife they say: '"The next best thing to no wife is good wife,
 The Arabian declares: "Words are women; deeds are men.''
 The Persian sage says that a wom- ans wisdom is under her heel.
 The German affirms that every daughter of Eve would rather be beau ti ful than good.
 The German also asserts that women and dragons are best out of the world
 The Corsican says: "Just as a good and bad horse both need the spur, a good and bad woman needs tue stick,'
 The Hindoo: "A man is not obeyed by his wife in his own house, nor does she consider him her husband unless he beats her." Another Hindoo proverh says: "Drive out & woman's nature with a pitchfork and it will return again and again"
