Two cases Of salty milk have recent
~ come within the writer's notice.
Samples of this salty milk were taken
and allowed to sour naturally. After
twenty eight hours duration the milk
coagulated at room temperature. The
curd was normal looking, but the taste
and smell were very putrid and OBJ
noxious. No terms would be strong
enough to express the degree of foul
ness in this milk. The thought came
at once, What an injurious effect such
milk is likely to have on the quality of
butter if it were allowed to be used in
the factory, together with the remain
der of the milk! This kind of milk is
evidently one of the causes of poor
butter that are likely to steal in on a
creamery operator.
These two salty samples had fat
content Of Is and 1.6 per cent respec-
lively. 1t is interesting to rote that
both came from cows that calycd this
spring They were both in good condi-
ton and about seven years of age. The
owner Of the cows told the writer that
they never used to 'sgo dry" but gave
a good quantity of milk the whole
year round. "And now" be declared,
with special emphasis, "as soon as they
start to give this kind of milk the
quantity decreases to about one gal
lon daily, and this occurs soon after
calving. They have been out of pas
ture and fed on dry food without any
change i'm the milk" Both cows were
allowed to dry up. What the quality
Of milk will be when they calve again
remains to be seen.
1t is likely that the cow, having been
MIXED so long without any rest might
have been the cause of the secretion of
this abnormal milk. &C. Larsen in

BRYAN DROPPING INTO PRoPHE-

Prophets are doleful folk, and Mir. Bryan never could keep from dropping into prophecy. For at least seven years he has been speculating upon futures, and has always ''got on the wrong side of the market" Nature, that sly ola deviling wag, seems to have bent all her energies to eonfute this earnest and confident soothsayer. She sent fair weather and enormous crops to the Uni ted States. drought and famine to h. dia. At her command the gold that lay perdu in the bowels of Alaska came out to add to the money of the world and the discontinue of MT. Bryan's woeful vaticinations. Agriculture burned it's mortgages, and still had money to burn" The bleeding brow of ''labor'' wore brand new tall hat. Prosperity came with full horn and blew it deri- sively at the saddened seer from Ne braska
 MT. Bryan is as engaging man as ever made or mounted platform or a hobby Don't blame him. He did the best he could. He is the victim of the humor of things Everett B. Manson in Everyhody's Magazine.

WAGES AT THE BAR.

Tn Gilbert and Sykes the courts were asked to believe that the safety of the State was threatened by bet between two obscure gentlemen over their bot tie on the life of Bonaparte. In another instance, an equally extravagant view of the far-reaching effects of friv- olous bet was taken by the judge. We refer to a case where one man made bet with another that the Canterbury collection of the duties on hops in a year amount to more than the collection in the preced- ing year. This wager the court held to be void, because 'it was contrary to sound policy, inasmuch as it led to discussion which tended to expose to the world the amount of the revenue!''
 Lord Holt, who tried an action out of a wager some two hundred years ago.
 did not consider 1t beneath the dignity of the court to inquire in that case whether q person playing backgam- mon, having stirred one of his men without moving it from the point, was bound to play it. We suppose the learned judge was unable to settle this question unaided. for it is recorded that

A STAR SINGER

Brough Here by the Brotherhood" of
 the Dwight Place Church. ,s
 Some of our prominent business houses display in their windows the picture of Mrs. Maude Fenlon Bollman, who although comparatively unknown in New Haven. is an artist who for the past two or three seasons has been immensely successful at the west in recital and oratorio work, and has been secured by the men of Dwight Place church for the concert at the church this week Friday night, to be given for the benefit of the new parish building.
 Mrs. Bollman has a high lyric SO prano voice of marvellous pliability and of unusual quality and range. It is rich in every tone, high or low, and has been admirably cultivated. One seldom hears such beautiful vocalization out side O. the operatic stage, and Mrs
 Bollman sings the arias from the Ital- ian works with such ease. finish and surety tha. had she wished. she could have shone in that class. As mother, in a refined home, she prefers the more quiet life of the concert singer and it falls to the lot of few singers to so uni formly please their audiences and to re- ceive such strong endorsements. from the critics. Mrs. Bollman is a person. al friend of pr. .Leete's and will be entertained at his home during her stay in this city. The tickets for Friday evening have been put at fifty cents. Harry Rowe Whitaker will be the ac- companist, and Wallace s. Moyle, Har- ry A. Cooke. William F. Morgan, jr, and Charles F. Williams make up the 70 A." auartette, who will assist, and the event under the auspices of the ".Brotherhood'' is bound to be bril- liant affair.

YALE FRESHMAN KILLED.
George B. Sherman of Cleveland Met
 With Fatal Accident

George B. Sherman of Cleveland Met With Fatal Accident.
 A distressing accident and one which
 resulted fatally occurred Sunday after noon and as a result George Benedict Sherman, member of the class of 1907 at Yale and whose home Is in Cleveland l O., died at the Yale inflrrnary yester-
 day few minutestbefore 12 o'clock. It seems that the unfortunate yo', ng man was in company with two class mates, Amasa s. Mathers and George | Wiltshire, both oe Cleveland, were on Sunday afternoon afternoon making the
 ascent Of West Rock an the side near est Dickernnan's pondy They were scal- | ing the face of the rock working their way along by grasping the small sharp
 and jagged rocks which are found in abundance. The men went up Indian file, Sherman being the last of the trio. While the stories of the accident differ | it is thought that one of the leading
 young men in his efforts to grasp rock to assist him in the climb loosened one of them and it went crashing down in
 such a manner that young Sherman
 was struck in the forehead and rem dered unconscious. ,#, This blow caused him to lose his hold
 and he fell headlong to plane about forty feet below. The companions hur- ried down as fast as possible and pick ing the injured comrade up carried him to nearby house and there telephoned for Dr. Marsh. F s'.s | Temporary medical service was rem
 dered and the lad was removed to
 Grace hospital in the ambulance. He was partially conscious He was later taken to the Yale infirmary, where Drs. Russell and Bacon made thorough ex- animation and found that the injuries had developed cerebral meningitis. Ev- erything possible was done in a medi- cal line but to no avail and death ended the young mans suffering at the time stated.
 The parents of the young man were immediately notified of the accident and reached this city late last evening, stop ping at the New Haven house. They are grief stricken.
 Young Sherman was a very popular member of his class and there will be a meeting to-day to take action regard ing same. # H''
 Deceased was grandson of the late John Sherman. Arrangements for the funeral have not been completed but Lewis & Maycock have charge of the body.

 Grand Opera Honse.

The play "The Child Wife," present. Ted at the Grand opera house last night and which will be repeated tonight and tomorrow night is an attractive one that appeals strongly to the emotions of all witnesses. 4 t$ a
 Last night there was a good sized au- dience at the popular playhouse to see "The Child Wife, and it was rendered in a most excellent manner by a very capable company. It is replete with stirring scenes and clirnaxes where sen- timents are aroused and enthusiasm grows apace. This is relieved by re- freshing bits of sparkling humor and natural comedy.
 The Fortune Of wealthy young wo- man forms the basis for the plot. The young woman. a mere / girl, sixteen years of age, becomes the wife of a re- spected but poor young man and thus endeayors totfoil the villainous attempts Fof a scheming and interruptions lawyer to secure her fortune. This same law yer is the one employed by the young Woman's father, and by a series of false statements prevails upon the father to have the young couple cast into the street. The relation and depletion, of their trials and hardships are interest ing in the extreme and especially when they are compelled to cope with the willy lawyer. One of the despieable things to which this cunning, crafty and treacherous individual resorts to is that of having the innocent young hus- band arrested and imprisoned for for gery. But right and justice triumph and the play ends happily. 5s. The company which Manager Keough has secured is a, strong one and the scenery is good and in keeping with the general excellence os the production.
 '"The Child Wife, will be presented at tle Grand opera house tonight and Wednesday and the usual matinee.
 "A Ragged Hero,'' melodrana. con- taining many new sensational incidents and thrilling climaxes. will be the at traction at the Grand opera house Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Octo- Der 29, 30 31. with matinee Saturday. The most notable os the novel effects is that which ends the second act. A little girl is imprisoned in the upper story of a burning house, with no ap- parent means of escape. The tot runs to the window, opens it, and is about to jump to the yard below when the Wandering Willie" of the play hap pens along. He looks around for lad der. but there is none in sight. His eyes fall upon a swing, hanging from a large maple tree in the yard. The nomad seizes the swing. mounts with it to the barn and swings up to the burning window. calling to the little one to jump toward him. The child obeys and leaps into 'Wilie's'' arms as the flames are closing around her.
