quiet. The striking trOlieymen issued
another statement declaring once more
that they are holding firm and that
there are no assertions from their

WHO CAN HE BF?"

The game "Who Can He Be?" is in
structive, and also helps to refresh the
memory. One of the party selects a
him, and relates an anecdote or any
thing that is interesting about him, and
names the country in which he lived.
The player who guesses the name
having previously the privilege of ask
ing one question-gives description of
another character, and so the game
progresses. Here is an example:
There was celebrated Swiss, a ia
nous archer, a champion Of liberty, and
who was the first to strike blow for
freedom. He refused to bow to the
Austrian governors hat. that had been
placed on a pole, that all should do
romage to it; and, as a, punishment for
his disobedience, he was ordered to
shoot an arrow at an apple placed on
his sons head, or else the son should
be put to immediate death before his
sight. With horror at the fearful at
tentative he at first refused, begging
that vengeance might fall on him only;
but the son assured him that he did not
fear the result, and begged him to
make the trial. He yielded to his per-
suasions, took aim, drew his bow, and
struck the apple without injuring his
SON. Who was he?"
''Who but William Tell?" says a
player, who instantly proceeds with an
other description of a hero or heroine

A. NOBLE MAN,

One of the most heroic figures of the
present day world is man whose very
name is known to few and whose life Is
familiar to even fewer. He lives in a
small hired house in the city of Toxic.
His name is Samuel I. J. Schereschew-
sky. For six years he was Missionary
Bishop of Shanghai. Nineteen years
ago illness, contracted largely through
his work, rendered him almost helpless.
Refusing to be burden to the mission,
he resigned his see. But he refused to
consider that his working days were
over.
With his paralyzed body he could no
longer go about the work of evangelical
ton, but he could at least sit in chair
and work for China by translating the
entire Bible into easy Wenli, so that
more of the common people might read
its message. This he has been doing
for many years, working with such
restless energy, in his struggle against
pain and helpless, that he has kept two
secretaries busy. He wrote his trans
lation of the entire Bible in Roman
characters upon typewriter, though
he could use only one finger of each
hand and needed eight years to COM
plete the task. He has worked under
conditions that put to shame many Of
US who speak or think of the great deeds
we might do if our circumstances were
only different-Japan Weekly Mail.

sorroWs OF a man who is in business for
himself
Then he dispensed with the services
of two men, who had families, and re-
duced the wages of three others, who
could not afford to quit on account Of
the cut. His wife did not know of these
things, for which reason she could go
to church on Sundays and heartily
praise God from whom all blessings
flow. They were still lap ahead of
the Smiths, and the ones below looked
up at these two families and enyied
them, and marvelled at the happiness
that must be theirs.
Thus the contest went on until Jones
overlook a case of nervous prostration,
accompanied by an incurable attack Of
bankruptcy, while Smith. in his eager
ness to increase his income, speculated
with money belonging to the firm which
employed him, achieving the usual re-
suit.
Then their broken-hearted wives
called it all off and went back to first
principles.

IN FoY AUDITORIUM.

Regular Members Entertainment This
Evening in the Y. N. C.. 4. Course-The
Treat the Season Promised for this Enter
tainment.
The next regular entertainment in the
y. NJ. c. A. membership course viii be given
this evening in Foy Auditorium with Marc,
the wonderful magician, musician, artist
and shadowgraphist, as the attraction. The
L.. NJ. Z. A. feels 1t is most fortunate In
being able to secure this well-known enter
tainer, and offers him to the subscribers of
the entertainment course with the greatest
pleasure. Wherever he has appeared, Marc
has Won not only the hearty applause Of
his audiences, but also the recognition of
the press by his masterful and artistic
work.
With him it is not merely matter of
entertaining his audiences with, few old
tricks such as have been worked at County
fairs for the past fifty years His work is
art TO him, and he clearly shows by his
performances that he is a master OF his art.
he is assisted in his work by Mrs. Marc,
and together they give an evening of merIi-
ment and mystery that never fails to please.
The entertainment is Just as enjoyable
for older people as for the young ones.
There are works of magic that even old
heads cannot latham, and the fun that Marc
has with his audience is the spontaneous
kind that begins with the first number and
only ends with the last. His work as a
shadowgraphist is wonderful. Sleeves rolled
back, full view Of the audience and aided
by two powerful electric lights he causes
faces, forms, houses, caricatures and ant
mails in silhouette to appear in bewildering
variety upon the curtain.
Marc will introduce in New Haven for the
first time one stringed instrument called
the Syrian Gogglepeg. In the hands of Marc
it produces music that is electrifying In its
effect. The music is at once old and beauti-
full, again 1t is weird and again the sweet
lullaby of the. muted violin is heard. His
Mari BIO Chimes are wonder in construc-
ton. The tonal effects are surpassed only
by the grandest of church organs, and
the delicate harmony of this instrument is
wonderful in it's intensity. - < 7

AGREEABLE CHANGE OF RELA-
TIVES.

Professor Burt G. Wilder, of Cornell
university, has done the humane spe-
cies a service which deserves to rank
with that represented by his famous
and enlightened collection of human
brains. He has relieved the face of the
satire involved in the common assign
ment of the position next to man, in
the order of creation, to the gorilla.
This horrible and revolving ape has
long been regarded as the first of quad
rumana, and consequently as the crea-
ture next to man in the scale of being.
Professor Wilder in a paper read be-
fore the American Association for the
Advancement of Science the other day
at Washington, destroyed by a conclu-
sive argument, based on studies of the
brain, which no living man is so we'll
qualified as he to make, the claim Of
the bestial gorilla to the lead among
quadrumanous creatures, and definitely
assigned that position to the amiable,
timid and spiritual orang-outang.
The orang-outang, or ''man-of-t the
woods" is, considered in the light Of a
relative, vastly more desirable than the
gorilla. He resides quietly in the trees
of Borneo and Sumatra. He is of a
modest and shrinking disposition; a
strict vegetarian, q kind husband and
father, the possessor of a cheerful and
social hunlor, and altogether, in spite Of
his arboreal and retiring habits, club
bable and companionable fellow. The
gorilla, on the other hand, is, though he
has six feet of height to the orang-out-
ang's four, and wanders abroad in a
more strenuous and self-reliant man
ner, quite beastly in appearance, with a
hideously produced srout and shocking
omniverous teeth. He fills the forest
with his horrible yells, and pounds on
his breast in a truculent and senseless
manner. He cruelty ravages the nests
Of birds, devouring their eggs and their
young. He is the very hoodlum, the
Bowery tough, of quadrumana. He is
no more fit to be compared with the
gentle orang -autang than kid" Nc
Coy with John Burroughs, or Devery
with Bishop Potter.
The substitution of the orang-outang
for the gorilla is. as we have limited, a
distinct compliment to the human race.
Man may be known by the company he
keeps in the order Of creation as we'll as
in the walks of ordinary life.-New

HIDDEN AWAY.
A Discovery Worth While.

It startles one when he comes to
know absolutely that wrong selection
of food is the direct cause Of the weak
eyes, kidney trouble, dyspepsia or
whatever may be the form disease
takes, and that right food will work
natural cure. But it is easy to prove
by actual test. The following is an
example:
give months ago + was in despair,
not knowing the cause of my desperate
condition I had run down to 105
pounds and suffered from a chronic
sore throat, sore eyes and what was
hardest to bear an awful nervousness
and hysteria which at times almost ran
into insanity.
FINALLY a large swelling appeared in
the throat and I feared cancer The
nervousness got worse and when I
found could stand it no longer and
no medicine could take would cure me
concluded to take the advice of the
Postum Cereal Company and change
diet. My stomach never hurt me so
I thought that was all right anyhow.
But 1 learned a thing or two.
"Wel I quit tea and coffee entirely
ana began ed lliiS 6l0pe-4SulS Three
times day. l began to improve and
get we'll. Whst a relief, Ny, sore
eyes, throat trouble and terrible ner-
vousness gradually left and I have
gained IS pounds in weight. 1t proved
to be hidden stomach trouble that
did not show excep: in other parts of
the body, but the real trouble scame
from stomach, and so when the right
food like Grape Nuts was given to the
stomach it quickly got well and made
good blood that cured the other ails."

Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich.
People don't realize the great truth
that the stomach and the food are re-
sponsible in most all cases for mans
happiness or distress
Nothing is more sure than for people
to improve III health if they will
change the diet and use Grape-Nuts

WATERBURY, STRIKE.


was warranted only so long as the sit
uation was beyond the control of the
civil authorities, and that the function
! of the military, primarily law enforcing,
ought never to be exercised except in
support oe the civil authorities. AS a
| result of the days conferences here it
was decided that things were looking
up in spite of the little furry of disor-
der this noon, and that the civil author
tiles in the persons of the police and
the high sheriff with an ample force
of deputies, all supported by quota OF
militia, ought to be able to maintain
| law and order The citys mayor, it is
understood, was in favor of the imme-
date withdrawal of at least part of the
state troops, and this brought the mat
ter to head. The governor was ap-
preached and the latter in turn investi-
gated for himself by means of the tele-
phone. Tonight Governor Chamber
lain announced that he had decided to
cause the soldiers to remain in Water
bury until tomorrow any way. At that
time, if the county sheriff and the other
civil authorities seem able to cope with
the situation. practically half Of the
militia will be withdrawn.
There was buzz of gossip retailing
the woes of certain of the soldiers who.
it was alleged, had been fined by their
officers for refusing to remove from
their military blouses I'VE Walk" but
tons. General Frost, questioned on this
matter, was non-committal. merely re-
marking: THAT is matter solely for
the officers themselves to settle" He
did add that officers could find author
ity for refusing to permit their men to
wear decorations" on their blouses
while on duty, and that disobedience
could be punished by fines.
An informal protest was lodged with
General Frost against the detail of SOL
diers to moving trolley cars, and the
general said 1.-THE troops of the state
of Connecticut will not be used to run
the cars of the Connecticut Railway
and Lighting company while they have
passengers"
This epigrammatic utterance was
taken to mean that if the company
was able to carry passengers the pres
ence of the troops would not be neces-
sary.
Frast Against Withdrawal
When the possibility that part of the
troops now here may be withdrawn to-
morrow by order of Governor Cham
berlain was preached to Brigadier
General Frost tonight, he expressed
the opinion emphatically that the gov
ernor would take no such action. II
do not believe" he said, that the gov
ernor will find conditions warrant the
removal of troops tomorrow. 1t should
be borne in mind that tomorrow is
Wednesday, and Wednesday is factory
pya day. On the night of pay day in
this city the crowds on the streets are
larger than on any other night in the
week. Saturday is another pay day
for many people, and it is also GUS
tomary for large numbers Of people to
assemble on the evening Of that day.
Sunday. too, is to be watched carefully.
Few people have forgotten the occur
rences OF last Saturday and Sunday, I
believe. Of course the decision regard

with the governor, but l do not think
