NEW HAVEN COUNTY.
ORANGE.

MIR AND MRS F. J. O'ROURKE ENTER TAIN.
 MT and Mrs Patrick J. O'Rourke en- tertained the officers and directors of the Orange Agricultural association and number of friends at their home,
 Monday evening, and the event was one that will long be remembered. MT O'Rourke annually gives dinner to the members of the associati on in honor of his winning the prize offered by the association for heavy draught cattle. The contest for this prize
 takes places at the the Orange fair
 and MT o Rourke has won it every year despite the efforts of Walter Hine to capture it with cattle he has secured the state to find. The rivalry between these two members of the aSSOciatiOniS so great that all the other members watch the contest with | a great deal of interest. MT Hine has been unable so far to find pair of heavy weights that can pull as much ] as MT O'Rourke'S, and the popular [ dtl lCh lido d1 W dyo CII lCu w dy UuC honorS, and MT Hine has always been the first to congratulate his rival, so that the best of good fellowship exists between them. Last night Mrs O'Rourke prepared a rare feast for l the guests and when the 75 or more | were seated at the tables, every one
 fell to with an appetite that showed
 they heartily enjoyed it. There were all sorts of fine things to eat, and as
 the president of the association, who
 was also postmaster, remarked, it
 looked at one time as if some of the
 members of the association kept on
 eating it would be necessary to call
 the draught cattle into action to re-
 move them from the table.
 After every one had eaten to his
 hearts content, Watson $. Woodruff,
 president of the association, who was
 postmaster, made felicitous address
 in which he complimented the host
 and hostess very highly and alluded to
 the old rivals, and afterward introduce
 ed the other speakers. AmOng those
 who made addresses were: Walter

 The pressure of modern life creates so great strain that few are free from the dread of using up their supply of nervous energy and thousands are al ready crippled and utterly discouraged.
 All such will welcome the account here given of an instance of complete recovery from a paralytic's helpless state by simple means within the reach of every sufferer. It is scarcely necessary to say that remedy which will cure an advanced and duplicated case may be employed with still greater confidence where the premonitory symptoms are recognized and treat ment begun at once. These symptoms are briefly: Trembling of the hands: sudden loss of power in arms or legs, frequently affecting one whole side of the body: staggering, partial or entire inability to use the fingers; distortion of the features, sometimes an uncon- trollable Quivering of the chin; severe pains; difficulty in speech. Frequent ly the first warning is a vague feeling of headache, vertigo and muscular weakness.
 In recent interview W.J. l.. Hay den gave the following account of his own sutferings and cure. "I truly think" said he, 'that Dr Williams Pink Pills are a great medicine for they cured me when physicians and other remedies had failed to give me the slightest relief. l had been giving to close attention to business, and over work brought on an attack of nervous ness which finally developed into paralysis. There were times when it was impossible for me to move my hands or get up from chair. At other times l had partial control of my limbs, but l was afraid to go far from the house for fear I might suddenly J. come helpless and have to be carrie d home.
 "While 1 was in this miserable con- ditlon, was stricken with malarisl fever and confined to bed for four months 1 had the best physicians, but, while they relieved my fever their treatment did not entirely drive the malaria from my system, and they did not help my paralysis in the least
 "l was we'll nigh despairing of ever being cured when friend persuaded me to try Dr Williams Pink Pills. When had finished one box I could see results that encouraged me to buy a second box. My condition kept steadily improving, and when l had taken seven boxes 1 was cured of paralysis and the malaria was com pletely driven out of my system. For two years now 1 have enjoyed the best of health and have attended to busi- ness without any interruption.
 MT Hayden's home is at No. 252 West 39th street, New York City. Dr Will llamS' Pink Pills have cured many similar cases of paralysis, also loco- motor ataxia. They are sold by all druggists. Write the Dr Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady. N Y., for details of other cases and for valuable booklet on the treatment of nervous disorders.

Edward Atkinson, WnoSe Iame aS statistician Is secure in the confidence of his countrymen. in a letter to The New York Times, of October 1, 1904, estimates the cost to the United States at two hundred millions year and the probable cost to date at $1,- 200, ,000.0
 His letter should be read by every voter. The vast sums thus expended come out of the pockets of our tax pay CTS. Not a dollar of 1t will be re- turned to them and 1t Is for them to determine whether they are willing to have their money expended in support of such a policy. If they are, then other islands and other countries may be added to our possessions until their cost of maintenance compels every worker in thiss country to support d soldier and his family as well as him self and his own family.
 One of the official family of the ad- ministration asks that we support our charge of extravaganza by specifica- tions. The figures given above will fully answer that purpose. They not only raise the presumption of extrava- gance. but they prove 1t.
 A further bill of particulars will be furnished as soon as a Democratic ad- ministration has had q chance to ex- anime the books. The result of this extraordinary increase in our expendi- lures has been to create a deficiency in the annual receipts.
 Government Run at a Loss.
 In other words, 1t is costing more money now to run the Government than we are taking in. The last fiscal year the revenues fell short over forty million of dollars. In the first sixty days of this fiscal year the expenditures exceeded the receipts by twenty four millions of dollars How much more we have run behind are not able to state. owing to the recent administrative orders forbiddlng Government officers from making public any statement on which fu- ture appropriations are based It is safe to assume from the making of the orders there have been no improvement. otherwise the public would not be denied all informa- tion pending the campaign. Now, this de- ficiency presents a serious situation. Either the expenses must be cut down-and the present administration says in effect that it does not propose to do it--or we must provide some other method of raising the needed money. Either bonds must be issued for that purpose, or we must levy more taxes. Such taxes were raised under the war revenue law of 1898 entitled An Act 10 Provide Ways and Means to Meet War expenditures, and for other purposes" an inconyenient and irritating method of pro- viding revenue which in it's operation both annoyed and burdensd every class of people.

PRICE OF BREAD UP
INCREASE IN THE VALUE OF A LOAF.
Republicans Find Difficulty in Recon- ciling Their Statements as to Advance of Wages and Life's
 Necessities.

Washington, Oct. 21.-(Special. )--- The Republicans, are finding great diff flculty in reconciling their statements, that wages are keeping pace with the advance In the prices of food and clothing.
 The latest happening in this direc- tion of interest to the residents of the National Capital is the announcemen mt made today that the nickel loaf of bread will be known no more in Wash ington.
 Beginning Monday an advance of ono cent loaf will go into effect, and cards announcing the rise were posted today in nearly every grocery and provision store in Washington and its vicinity. The condition is said to be the same in other cities, owing to the increased price of flour. though where there is not a uniform bread law, as obtains here. the same result Is being reached by charging five cents for a smaller loaf. It is not alone in bread. however that the prices have advanced since Republican domination of national af- fairs, but milk, eggs, cream and every thing else that the people eat and wear have scared and are still soaring in prices as the result of pernicious Re- publican legislation.
