to a good many meetings but I never
before met with such a cordial greet
ing that lasted so thoroughly through
the session as the good people of
Mitchell gave us. Everything was
looked after carefully and the COM
mittees and the citizens. not to men
tion the heads of the banking insti-
tutions of your city, seemed to make
an individual effort to see that all
the delegates were properly enter
tanned, and l do not think there was
a banker here who will not Join me
in the sentiments I have expressed"
The Republican heard many happy
expressions among the bankers con-
corning the very hospitable manner
in which the delegates were taken
care of by the citizens Of the city
and the members Of the local banks.
One Of the bankers declared that he
had added ten years to his life by
this visit to the association and to
Mitchell.

A Sustaining Diet.

These are the enervating days,
when, as somebody has said, men
drop by sunst1oke as if the Day of
Fire had dawned. They are fraught
with danger to people whose systems
are poorly sustained; and this leads
US to say. in the interest Of the less
robust Of our readers, that the full
effect Of Hoods Sarsaparilla is such
as to suggest the propriety of calling
this medicine something besides a
blood purifier and tonic, say, a sus-
tanning diet. 1t makes it much cas-
Ter to bear the heat, assures refresh
ing sleep. and will without any doubt
avert much sickness at this time Of
wear.

In opening the governor told a few
stories of a humorous nature that
found a ready application during
his following address, and they
served to place the audience in close
touch and sympathy with the speak
er. In referring to the. bankers be
said that for years they had been
conducting their business along the
line to safely convert their capital
into currency, but there was a prob
lem, greater not only to them but 20
the commonwealth. It relates to
the conversion of your deposits into
securities. He said -.tue United
States treasury was Insignificant in
comparison with the deposits in the

largely upon the deposits in the

Mrs Reeves will not be prosecuted by the local author ities, who are satisfied that the girl has told the truth. but who have no evidence to support her story, other than her scared and bruised body.

 Conducting Experiments.

Conducting Experiments.
 New Haven, Oct 23.-An explosion occurred Wednesday morning in the chemical laboratory at the State Nor mai school on Howe street, which re- suited in serious injury to one of the students, Miss Helen Stanton of 112 Farren avenue. An investigation to ascertain the cause of the explosion has been begun by the authorities at the school.
 It is presumed that the explosion re- suited from the improper mixing of acids used in making demonstrat tions in the laboratory. Miss Stanton was using sulphJlric acid and some other chemical in forming a combination and while engAged in the demonstra- ton the explosion occurred
 The chemical apparatus that was used was shattered and broken frag- ments of glass were blown in all direc- tions. A quantity of the acid spat- tered into Miss Stanton's face and some of it got into her eyes. She surf fered intense pain and after temporary treatment at the Normal school she was sent ho her home. She has since been under the care of Dr E. K. Rob- erts of Grand avenue.
 The physician said that the girls eye was badly burned by the acid. but if Is yet too early to tell whether the sight will be permanently injured.

 Result Was the Same.
 New Haven, Oct 23.-For some time past an inventor of a fire proof paint has been presenting the claims of his product to the car building department of the New York. New Raven and Hartford railroad.
 The fire prooffng is of such quality that it is said that q pitch pine board soaked in it for some hours may be hung in the flame of blow pipe for a considerable length of time without being injured thereby.
 F1reproof paint is a thing to be de- sired on railroads and hence some of the Consolidated's officials placed a couple of old freight cars at the in- ventor's disposal to experiment. on.
 The test was made Wednesday af- ternoon after the meeting of the direc- tors of the road, and some of the direc- tors witnessed 1t. Fire Chief Fancher was also there.
 One of. the cars was stuffed with hay and shavings and this stuff saturated with kerosene oil and then fired. It went up In an explosion of flame and smoke like an eruption of Mount Pelee.s

NEW TWO GENT STAMP.
Changes That Are Expected to Re.
 move Present Objections.

move Present Objections.
 The flag postage stamp, which has been in use for about six months, will soon be superseded by a new design known as the .shieid'' postage stamp. The bureau of engraving is now mak. ing the plates, each containing 400 de signs, from which the supply or 4,000,. 100000 of two-cent stamps for the next year will be printed.
 h the new design the central fig. ure is, of course, Washington, of the Stuart type, similar in a general way to the portrait upon the stamp now in use. The lines of the engraving are however, not quite so close together and the bureau experts assert that In regular use the red ink will not be so apt to fill up the shading and produce the effects that have made the cur rent stamps so objectionable.
 The frame or background of the de. sign is shield, the lower part of which has been fattened so as to per- init it's conforming to the outlines of the stamp. The upper third of the design comprises the blue field with stars in white Instead of thirteen stars there are only four fully visible. although three points of as many stars may be seen peeping out from behind the letters, United States Of America.''
 The name Washington dates of birth and death, and the value in let. ters. appear very similar to that in the current stamp The distinguishing features of difference in the present stamp and the new design lie in the improved photograph of Washington and the abandonment of the flags and substitution of great shield therefor.
