All members of the St Thomas Ca~ dets' Junior. football team are request ed to meet tonight at T:3o at the Ly- ceum.
 Don't forget to attend the opening of the grand bazaar of the Brooklyn Athletic cfub at the clubs quarters on Saturday night For a small sum everybody can enjoy a merry time.
 Edward P Dunphy has been elect ed manager of the St Thomas Cadets football team for the coming season. The position of manager is not a new one for Manager Dunphy, as he has had much experience in that line For several years he was manager of the Cadets football and baseball teams. and his management was a decided success. Henry Eaters was mana. ger of the football team last year.
 The quarrel between Harry F. Stark of Highland avenue and resi- dnets of that district near the Oro- noke road continues to grow more se- rious. MT Stark had chained the gate across the roadway leading from Highland avenue across his nroc,a,,tv to the residential section referred tn above. Last night the chain was eut III two.

WORDS OF PRAISE.

New Haven Paper Congratulates Seery
 Hayes and His Parents.
 Congressman N. ID. Sperry annouuces that he will recommend that the tal- ented second son of Thomas H. Hayes of Waterbury be appointed to a West Point cadetship
 This announcement will greatly please the many friends of MT Hayes and the young son of whom he certain dy has reason to be very proud.
 MT Hayes, senior, Is one of the most prominent Irish citizens of the state. successful in business and widely known as a shrewd man of kind heart and busy mind. He is lifelong and special friend of Thomas H. Sullivan. proprietor of the Hotel Oneco of this city, and has host of other friends in New Haven and in every section of the state.
 The son is a young man of bright promise, IT years old, manly in bearl ing. keen in intellect and determined ito win success in whatever he under takes. He finished his third year in the Waterbury High school last June and has since received Instructions from special teachers Tn this city. He Is extremely bright, but not in the slightest degree ostentatious. His per- sonality is very pleasing and his am- bition of the kind that grows and stays through success and failure
 The desire to enter West Point mili- tary college is not of sudden birth, but seems to have been born into this young man whom 1t is Congressman Sperry's pleasure and privilege to recommend for high honor.
 MT Hayes received the highest marks in a severe competitive examination. He distaneed all competitors and fair- ly won the right to receive the support Congressman Sperry is able to give him.
 The success of MT Hayes is some. thing of which every Irishman of Con- necticut and New England has reason to be proud. for pride of nationality Is something which is natural and right whenever the cause is comnlendable as it most certainly is in this case.
 The Leader offers its congratulations to Mir Hayes and also to Congressman Sperry, whose loyal public service to his district and state has endeared him to the people whom he so ably and successfully represents.-New Haven Leader.

PROTEST, AGAINST BOYCOTT.
Woodworkers Passed
 Resolutions Last Night

ReSOluIlOQS LdSL gNISHI-
 At a meeting of the Amalgamated Woodworkers, local PAT, last night the following statement was given out:
 s'We, the members of the above lo- cal, duly assembled, do hereby enter protest against the boycott now on against the Waterbury Clock Go. While we deplore the trouble that caused the strike, we believe it could have been amicably settled, had there been time given for due deliberation. We wish to place ourselves on record as believing in our constitution, which states that a strike should only be re- sorted to after all other methods have failed.
 ssWe protest against arbitrary and rash methods when, dealing with labor problems, and we further wish to state that the Waterbury Clock Go, while running an open factory, has always been fair to organized labor, and we believe that company that has grant ed a nine hours work day should re- ceive the support of all organized la bor."

Is there any influence used in not reporting them? On my way down town pass scores of walks in a very bad condition, and yet these are not reported. If, our city officials will personally make a tour of inspec- ton they will find bad sidewalks less than a mile from my own which need immediate attention, and yet their own CTS are not molested. The honorable board of public works ought to ap- point reliable officials for inspectors and not drag the names of innocent citizens before the public, charging negligence to them and threatening them with prosecution.

 President Hall of the Consolidated road is expected home from Kennc- bunkport, Me, this week or next. The meetingof the directors, usually neidoI the second Saturday of the month, has been deferred until next week and so he may not hasten back as quickly as was expected. The rumors about President Halls retirement have been abundant but all unofficial and un- doubtedly they rest primarily on- the frequent reports that his health was no longer equal to the tremendous strain of managing such great concern. The latest advices from him indicate that he has made decided improvement since going down east. The annual meeting of the company comes in Oc- tober and there are two vacancies in the board of directors, due to the deaths of Joseph Park of New York and Carlos French of the Naugatuck valley. Vacancies in the board are al- ways filled before the annual meetings, so that full ticket can be brought in for the shareholders to consider, and presumably this will be done this year. If so, the elections will have to be Szade at the coming meeting of the d. lxqetprS=0r at the one tn@9 9c*pheEs

WEAK COLONIES.

Instead Of allowing the bees to
swarm 1t is better to build up the weak
colonies by transferring brood comb to
the depleted hives. Now is the time to
attend to these details while the season
is open for work, so as to allow time
for the bees to increase in numbers and
lay in stock for winter. 1t is folly to
have the bees of the strong colonies
swarm as long as there are any that
arc weak. If this is not considered the
better mode then the strong colonies
may be allowed to rob the weaker, in
which case the two colonies will be-
come as one, and both be benefited but
before making new hives see that all
the hives are full and up to the compile
ment, both in bees and honey. and it
will be saving of time and bees.

A mixed ration will nearly always
give more satisfactory results than any
one material. Oats and corn. with good
hay and fodder, can be made the prin.
cipal parts of ration, while bran, oil
meal and quite a number of other ma.
terlals can be used to make up a va
riety. Use n larger proportion of corn
during the winter and less during the
summer, increasing the oats in the
summer and lessen the amount in the
winter. Oats make one Of the very
best feeds that can be supplied to
horses. and especially so to the working

STEPS IN SUGAR MAKING.

Every sugar maker should have the
spouts and buckets washed and scalded
and in readiness as soon at least as
the sap will start from the trees, and
when 1t will he should be able to tap
at once, be there many or few The
sap should be gathered as soon as pos.
sible after It runs. The boiling should
be done as soon as possible after the
sap is gathered. Shallow evaporating
pans are preferred by the best sugar
or syrup makers.
When the syrup is as thick MS is
wanted for canning 1t should be
strained. Some let 1t stand and settle,
and then If there be any settings turn
off and then warm up and strain again.
The most popular styles Of packages in
this section are for syrup tin cans that
will shut air tight. and that hold one
gallon; for sugar, If soft. can that
will hold about twenty-five pounds.
Many make hard sugar In about five
pound cakes or bricks.--G. II. Hurl-
burt, In New England Homestead.
