HEARD IN PASSING

A perplexed manager of things the atrical has produced a farce, for which a title has been selected, but which on second thought the manager decided was not satisfactory He therefore produced the play without name and offers reward of $100 for one that will satisfy him. In this case, at least, there's $1OO in q name.-Hartford Post
 Fire hydrants as mob dispellers are effective and harmless. They are preferable to the riot gun, so long as they answer the purpose. When well water soaked. mischief makers are suddenly turned into monkeys and made the laughing stock of the public. There's no better way to take the starch out of arrogance than to drench it-Ansonia Sentinel.
 The new automobile law in New York requires that an automobile shall stop at the request of a rider or driver of frightened horse. Few horses are frightened any more at the auto, and the difficulty about such law, any way, is obvious. There would scarce 1y be time to make the request and ac- cede to it before the mischief would be done. Horses should be broken to automobiles as to other things they are likely to meet.--New Haven Union.

some make the business good, and some are caught with the goods on them. But whate'er ibetide, the land lord pursues the even tenor of his way, seeking no political honors, ask ing no official favors, quietly eluding jury duty, .unostentatiously swearing eff his taxes, with malice toward none, with charity toward all, content with life, liberty and the pursuit of board CTS. There are plenty of men ill this room who can reach right up and pluck the stars out of the Armament and transfer them to the blue field of Old Glory, and who can refer to G.. Washington and A.

I have gone home from dinners so full of patriotism that I couldn't get in the front door, and so have slept in the vestibule on a wire doormat, and I have gotten up in the morning with the word Welcome printed on me, but never could see that was any better for it.''

 The Tracy bill is due this week and rumor has it that the measure will be unfavorabIy reported. It is quite likely that rumor has sized up the situ- ation correctly. Such a one-sided measure could never have been effect i've or popular as law.-New Britain Herald.
 Ssh! Don't say word or you will be denounced as an anarchist and 8 foe of good government. The repub- licans can clap all the one-sided laws on the books they please, and they can issue franchises that take away the peoples rights, but the people must grin and bear it, until they have sense enough to elect the other fellows.

One effect that the rottenness in public office under republican adminis- tration is going to have, says a Wash ington critic, is that it will revive the necessity for a ], democratic platform next year modelled after that of 1876, on which Samuel J. Tilden was nom mated and elected. That platform called for reform in almost every par agraph. There is as much necessity for reform now as there was then, and it seems to be the consensus of democratic opinion that the cry of re form will be one of the issues i'll the next campaign. If the honest men of the nation, regardless of politics, could be made to understand the conditions in many of the departments, they would sweep the republican party out of office on the cry of reform alone and with no other issue in the cam paign.

A haze of smoke lay upon the city, and everything looked hot and dry. Looks like showers. Guess it will be showers tonight or tomorrow he went on cheerfully. "A very peculiar condi- ton exists over the country, a great variety of climate. The weather is fair in the gulf and Atlantic states, with rising temperature from New York to Virginia and slighter changes in the other eastern states. There has been rain from Michigan and Wisconsin west to tbe Rocky mountains, with a continuation of snow in sections of Montana, where as much as nine inch es has fallen. The record for yesterday was 90 in 1877. The record for May is 95, May 81, 1895. Drought has contin- ued thirty-three days"

 Junta In DubIin.
 LONDON, May 20.-John Redmond, M. F., has made a statement concern ing the disorderly proceedings at the meeting of citizens held in the Dublin rotunda in support of the Irish parlia- mentary fund. Mir. Redmond says:
 The disturbance would have been easily nipped at the outset, but the peo- pie naturally shrank from using force to remove Mrs. Mcbride (formerly Maud Gonne) and other ladies who led the disorder. After awhile these ladies left, and the other disturbers were speedily removed. They consisted of thirty or forty young men who acted in concert. They were roughly and violently treated, which regretted, but it was impossible to restrain the peo- pie. The disturbance was quickly over, and for two hours after unanimi- ty and enthusiasm prevailed Long speeches were delivered, resolutions in conformity with the object of the meet ing were unanimously adopted and large sums were subscribed to the Irish parliamentary fund. On emerging into the street Lord Mayor Harrington re- ceived an enthusiastic ovation. The disturbance was planned by an ire sponsible junta in Dublin who are ex- asperated at the peaceful prospects for leland"

A planting plan has recently been prepared by the bureau of forestry for 1,SOO acres of land in Cullman county, Ala, owned by Emil Ahlrichs and val ued at from SIPS to. .$3 per acre. The planting will be done in several differ ent localities, but all in Gullman coun- ty. Work will begin as soon as growth ceases next fall, and will continue through the winter, except in freezing weather. The first seasons work will include the planting of loblolly pine seedlings collected in the forest on a tract of 160 acres of open woods. Two hundred and eighty acres will be plant ed with chestnut and white and post oak. A seed bed will be prepared for the raising of loblolly pine for tract of $40 acres, as 1t Is considered not ad- visable to use entirely stock collected from the porest Loblolly pine Is to be planted for the production of lumber, chestnut for posts and telegraph poles, and oak for railroad ties.

It seems that there is conflicting of authorities in Bridgeport for which the charter is to blame and not Mayor Mulvihill, and that is why Commis- sioner Beach wanted to de&a4sa the du- ties of both at that meeting Monday. Commissioner Beach says that the meeting cleared the atmosphere and the public should understand that the board of police commissioners do not intend to act independently of the mayor during the present trouble, as is generally supposed. We will act with and in harmony with the mayor. There are no differences of opinion between us." He said that there was mo inten- ton to put Mayor Mulvihill on trial, which is notion that great many people entertain. The meeting was called to settle a question as to who was It. This was necessary to know, and now that it has been determined, the board does not intend that there will be any hitch with the mayor"

Whenever the trusts want anything they begin working in the other direc- ton. They wanted the Ekins bill passed at the last session of congress, and that is why they sent those tele- grams to the senate asking that 1t be killed. They knew that would do the trick. That is why, at this time, they are giving out the impression that they do not want Roosevelt nominated or elected. They know the people will give them what they do not want. Watch the game.

Anniversary of Cuban Republic.


 HAVANA, May 20.--P President Palma has received message of congratula- tion from the Sons of the American Revolution on the occasion of the anni- versary of the birth of the Cuban re- public. The congratulations invoke the divine favor on Cuba, and the hope is expressed that liberty will continue to be perpetuated as the result of the sacrifice of blood and treasusre by the Cubans and their American compatri- ots." On account of the death at Te- gucigalpa, Honduras, of Gonzalo De guardiola, a brother of Mrs. Palma, President Palma will not participate in any public functions today excepting an official reception. He has declared his intention of vetoing the National lottery bill if 1t is passed by congress. The house of representatives is said to be overwhelmingly in favor of the lot tery bill
