 Editor of the Democrat:
 Will you please allow me space in your paper to apologize to the public and especially to the working people for accepting position on the trolley cars. I was led into the mistake un- willingly, but as soon as I became aware of what had done l gave up the position, my whole time with the company not exceeding eighteen hours. I quit just as soon as I learned that the union men, my neighbors and friends and the working people in general felt aggrieved at my conduct. I have lived twelve years in this town and always managed to maintain friendly relations with everybody and hope that the over sight I made in permitting myself to be cajoled into taking job with the strike breakers will be overlooked and that the people of Waterbury will not have any hard feeling towards me about it,

CUBANs OPPOSE TAX.
Havana Threatens and Drug Stores
 Closed in Protest.

Closed In FroteSC. q.
 HAVANA, April 27.--Protests are be- ing made throughout the entire island against the taxes imposed by the new ly created provincial governments. The drug stores of Havana and it's suburbs almost without exception are closed ip protest against the stamp tax of cents on every package of patent medicine sold. The druggists, following the ex- sought to have this tax rescinded, but the provincial council has refused their request.
 It is almost impossible to procure medicine in Havana except at the free municipal dispensaries, of which there is one in every ward. Many of the druggists declare they are ready to re. main closed until General Nunez, civil governor of Havana or President Pal. ma vetoes the tax.
 General Nunez says that he approves of these taxes, which have been i'm posed where they were least burden. some namely, upon amusemsnts, gam bling and the sale of patent medicines.
 A big demonstration was held in the plaza at Matanzas last evening to pro test against the imposition of these taxes in Matanxas province. Here the taxes are upon certain articles of nc cessity, and they are declared to be contrary to the purpose of the new pro vincial law. Some of the radical oppo sition newspapers are advocating tho abolishment of the provincial govern mentS.

CONSCIENCE MONEY.
|Vedl Known waberDury Man Gets
 Rack Stolen Mote

Perhaps the most surprised man in
 Waterbury was Henry A. Burton, when he received $34,25, last week, which had been taken from him some Ptime ago. 1t is another case of con science and the confessional of the Ro- man Catholic church. The person who took the money found his con- science troubling him, and he contided the matter to Father Saurusaltis of St Joseph's Lithuanian church, in the confessional. The man was given to understand that he must make restitu- ton and at the earliest opportunity, or be cut off from the sacraments of the church. He promised to do so, and as soon as he earned enough money he placed 1t in the llrads of Father Saurusaitis. The latter immediately turned 1t over to khe rightful owner. The money was taken at time when it was needed land when the temptation was too great Ito resist, but being ill-gotten the per lson who purloined it was i'll at ease un- il be relieved his conscience by con- flding 1t to his confessor who compelled aim to return the money.

Large and Enthusiastic Crowd Lis
 tened to Excellent Concert.


 There Is only one Creatore and his Italian band, and this one delighted a very large audience of musical critics and others at Polls theater lust even ing. The only fault to be found was the stretching out of the program, with a long intermission, until after 1o o'clock, when it might have been m ished at 9:30. The music was Of the same high order that Creatore gave us on his two former visits. Every mem- Der of the band is an artist, and under stands perfectly every move of the 1.-the and wilIowy director. Creatore's own march, Royal Purple" the opening number, the quartet from "Rigoletto," anC Suite Peer Gynt" by Grieg, en- bracing four numbers. were the gems of the evening. After the latter sc lection the applause was so great that 'Nearer My God to Thee" was given forIan encore. 1t was all that the New York and Chicago critics have claimed for it, grand, sublime and har- monious. NIme Barili rendered two soprano solos in sweet and pleasing manner.

President Passed Quiet Sunday 1T
 Grand Island, Neb.
 GRAND ISLAND, Neb., April 27.-- President Roosevelt's Sunday in Grand EslAnd was quiet. The president at- tended St. Shepherds Episcopal church in the morning. The sermon was preached by the rector. Rev. Louis A. 2Arthur. In the afternoon the preei- dent went for horseback ride, accom- panied by Senator Dietrich. They. rode out about fifteen miles to Taylor's sheep ranch and then around to the soidiers' home, where the president greeted the veterans.
 The day was extremely disagreea- bls on account of high wind, which blew clouds of dust in every direction. Ln order that the president and his party might be free from dust clouds while in the train the fire department stretched hose around the cars and kept the ground sprinkled. The presi- dent made short address before start ing for Hastings. He will reach oma- gn during the day and will spend the Aight there.
 During Friday and Saturday the president travelled in three states and Anade number of addresses both from the rear platform of his car and from stands erected for the purpose. A unique demonstratio and the one that undoubtedly pleased the president most was the cowboy show at Edge uaOnt s. D.
 A HaA Inf A dress the boys began riding the buck ing horses, and only horses that would buck were ridden. The only disap- pointment of the day was the failure of the prize bucking horse of that sec don to perform.
 At the close of the exercises the cow boys formed an escort to the train, and after 1t had started they dashed along side the presidents car, and he shook hands with many of them from the window.
 The president was welcomed at Crawford. Neb., by the Eighth cavalry. which saluted him with drawn sabers, while the regimental band played Hall to the Chiefw He spoke few words of greeting to the soldiers and also briefly addressed the large crowd that gathered about his car. Stops were also made at Gillette and Moor croft Wyo., and Ardmore, S. D. Al { each place the president spoke briefly. ". W.

RIFLE SHOT TR0PHIEs.
Two NeS0 Ones to Be Competed For
by National and State Rinemen.

|
Two NeSo Ones to Be Competed Eor
by National and State Rinemen.
Rihemen, national and state, are TAX
ing an extraordinary interest in this
years rifle matches, and 1t is confident
ly predicted by those In authority that
the present will be q record" year IN
all the principal contests. says the New
York Tribune.
This impetus to proficiency IN marks
nanship is due directly and indirectly
to United States Senator John r. Dry
den Of New Jersey, who by his official
and personal acts has furnished the
country two of the most valuable-tro-
phies ever contested for on the rifle
range 1t was through Mr.. Dryden's
personal and persistent efforts that the
military committees Of congress last
year agreed to insert clause in the
army appropriation bin authorizing for
the first time "a national trophy, med
ais and other prizes to be provided for
and contested for annually by
the army and national guard or organ
tied militia Of the several states and
territories and of the District of Co
lumbia.r
This national trophy, coupled with an
especially valuable and handsome one
which Mr.. Dryden recently presented
has naturally aroused spirit Of the
keenest interest among those ambitious
for honors for the small arm.
The Dryden trophy is to be shot for
on the range at Sea Girt, n. j.. under
the auspices of the New Jersey State
Rifle association. 1t is to be of bronze,
5 feet inches high, mounted on an
ebony base eighteen inches high, max
ing q total height Of about seven feet
The cost will be about $1,000. The gen
eral design represents a banner bean
ing on the front a wreath In relief and
twenty-five convex disks for the names
of the winners of each year. The panel
at the top bears the words Dryden
Trophy The letters themselves Will
be of Ia carat gold in relief. The fig
ures Of the infantryman ION the left
and marine Ton the right will be in full
relief The coat of arms of the stats
at the top will also be in full relief.
The panel at the bottom bearing the in
scripion will be of bronze. The trophy
will be open to teams from the army Of
the United States, one team from the
troops stationed within each Of the mil
itary departments; United States navy,
one team; United States marine corps,
one team; national guard or uniformed

SMALL PORTABLE DIPPING WATTS.
which does not contain sulphur 1t Is al
ways safer to add about sixteen and
half pounds Of sifted flowers of sui
phur to every hundred gallons Of wa
ter, especially If after dipping the
sheep have to be returned to the old
pastures.
Second-Shear all the sheep at one
time and Immediately after shearing
confne them to one-half the farm for
from two to four weeks. Many persons
prefer to dip Immediately after shear
ing.
ThiPd-At the end Of this time dip
every sheep, and every goat also If
there are any ON the farm
Fourth--Ten days later dip the entire
flock a second time.
Fifth--After the second dipping
place the flock on portion of the farm
from which they have been excluded
during the previous four or five weeks.
Sixth.-Use the dip at temperature
of 100 to 110~aegrees B.
Seventh-Keep each sheep In the dip
for two minutes by the watch-do not
guess at the dme-and duck Its head at
least once.
Eighth-Be careful In dipping rams,
as they are more likely to be overcome
In the dip than are the ewes.
Ninth.-&njury may, however, result
to pregnant ewes, which must on this
account be carefully handled. Some
farmers arrange stage with sides to
hold pregnant ewes, which Is lowered
carefully into the vat and raised after
the proper time.
Tenth-In case a patent or proprie-
tary dip, especially an arsenical dip, is
used the directions given on the pack
age should be carried out to the letter.
A small portable vat suitable for use
in dipping Cocks Is shown at Fig. 1.
When not in use. this vat may be con-
veniently stored away, and 1t may be
drawn from place to place, as desired.
The dimensions here given may be va
ried according 10 individual taste by
making the vat longer, broader or deep
er. A convenient size will be 8 feet
long by 21a feet broad at the top, 8
inches broad at the bottom and 315 to
feet deep. The floor measures 8 inches
broad by feet long. From a foot
above one end of the floor slant with
cross cleats rises to the top end of the
vat The sheep are dropped In by
hand. one at a time, at the deep end
and after being held in the dip for two
minutes are allowed to leave the vat at
the slanttng end, This plan of vat may
be easily modified, If desired, so as to
have small dripping platform at
tached. as IN Fig. 2. In this modified
plan an inclined platform is added to
the vat Shown in Fig. y, and remov-
able skeleton box Is made to fit over IT..
A gate may be placed at the deeper
part of the slant. This should swing

SHEEP scAB.

Tho Dipping ProOess-Poxtah2e Waits
For Small FIOcl<s.
Sheep scab is one Of the most serious
drawbacks to the sheep industry Of the
country and results In enormous finan-
ctal losses. The losses are due to she'd
ding Of the wool, failure Of condition
and the death Of the sheep. Common
scab is exceedingly contagious from
one sheep to another and may In some
cases show itself within about week
after healthy sheep have been exposed
to infection. The contagion may be di-
rect by contact Of one sheep with an
other or indirect from tags Of wool or
from fences, posts, etc, against which
scabby sheep have rubbed or from the
places where the sheep have been bed
ded down.
By far the most rational and salts
factory and the cheapest method Of
curing scab is by dipping the sheep in
some liquid which will kill the para
sites. The dipping process is as fol-
lows:
First. Select dip containing sui
phur. II a prepared dip" Is used
