rs it solid gold?"
The eager questioner was a country
woman, a member of a large party
which a railroad agent was plotting
through the East room at the white
house. She pointed to the piano with
the gold-leaf coating as she asked the
question.
The guide attempted to evade the
woman's question by referring to the
seals of the Is original states which
adorn the sides OF the instrument, and
explained that it is the one hundred
~thosandth piano manufactured by a
prominent New York firm, says the
Washington Times.

posed.
Still the guide did not answer. You
will noticet hiatt here are 13 settees in

states" he continued.
But | want to know whether the
piano is solid gold" the woman in
sisted.
NO, madam, it is not solid gold"
the guide remarked with a slight dis
play of temper.
HUH the woman retorted. I've
seen calliopes that looked better and
I'd hoped that it had value to recon-
mend 1t. When there's only one real
piece of furniture in a room of this

%, ana a short time later opened an
office IN Waterbury. During his res
idence in Naugatuck lne took quite m
interest In politics and was chairman
of the board OF education for several
years. He was also an ardent labor
advocate and was for time associ-
ated with the late Henry O. Baldwin
in the publication OF a paper known
as the Agitator, which had a brief but
interesting existence. Mr. Lodge was
a vigorous writer and DO his power
with the pen can be traced many of
the troubles that beset him in this
country and elsewhere. While in Ire
land he was an Incorporating ma
tionalist and never lost an opportunity
to give the government and It's min
ions a whack. While this made him
the idol of his neighbors and brought
him more or less fame from all parts
of the country, it also rendered him a.
marked man by the authorities and on
this account some of his friends were
pleased to see him go where fellow
can take the opposite side of public
questions without running the risk of
being arrested and sent to jail. For
several years after settling In this
country he was the Naugatuck CORE

of collecting his poems and publishing
them in book form and 1t Is thought
