 After reading the communication, and before the rest of the aldermen had re- covered from their surprise, Alderman Minor made motion that the matter be referred to the committee on rail- roads and bridges, and that they hold public hearings on the question. This motion was immediately and unani- mously carried. Alderman Minor then presented the petition and a large blue print of the proposed changes to Clerk Moran. @ After the meeting had adjourned, the map, which is fourteen feet long by four feet wide, was taken into the ante chamber, and all the aldermen gathered around it and spent considerable time in discussing it. From what could be gathered from their conversation it ap- peared that they all greatly favored the plan. In fact a number of them said that they would favor 1t if it came be- fore the board for vote, providing it was satisfactory to the railroad com pany. According to the blue print, if the. plan was carried out it would in. terfere but little with buildings in that part of the city. Alderman Ricketts,, after looking at the map, stated that

 The original presentation of Miss Alice Neilsen's comic opera, '.The For tune Teller is to be seen in this city at the New Haven theater all next week, with matinee Wednesday and Saturday, under the direction of Messrs. Milton and Sargent Aborn. It will be seen here with all the handsome de- tails which characterized the original presentation and should prove most enjoyable entertainment for theatergo- CTS of this city who delight in musical presentations. The production is one of the grandest known to the stage, hay- ing cost Miss Nelson some forty thou sand dollars, and the organization in size and quality, is of 1such eminenee that it's appearance here should prove to be an event of great attractiveness.s
 The company which the Messrs. Aborn have gotten together for the production of The Fortune Teller is reported to be an extremely well bal- anced one It numbers sixty people, in- cluding Elsie Janis. Grace Hazard, May Emery, Herbert Sallinger, Phil Bran- son, Herman Hirshberg, Edward 5. Metcalfe, Grafton Baker, Carl Burton. Annie Lake, Eleanor Lewis, Harry Fur pin and a host of others. The produce tion which the Messrs. Aborn present is the same which Miss Alice Nelson used when she so successfully present. ed this opera. It is the most nlagnitl- cent ever given to a muscial entertain ment.
 Ihe Fortune Teller is the kind of g beauty show which is in great demand at this time. filling the demand for young Womankind of prepossessirlg ap- pearance. The Messrs. Aborn in their production of ''The Fortune Teller" have a coterie of young women in their chorus that would be hard to excel. "LITTLE CHURCH AROUND THE

Presidency of the United States on
Wednesday, and his response was
characteristic of the man He praised
everything that the Republican
party had done and would do in the
future and denounced the Democra-

speech to show how little regard for
truth Teddy has at times
I'm all this we are more fortunate
than our opponents, who now appeal
for confidence on the ground, which
some express and some seek to have
confidentially understood, that tri-

Safeguard the Children.

Notwithstanding all that is done by
boards of health and charitably in.
clined persons, che death rate among
small children is very high during the
hot weather of the summer months in
the large cities. There is not probably
one case of bowel complaint in a humid
red, however, that could not be cured
by the timely use of Chamberlain Is
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoe Remedy.
Mr.. Frank Riggs, of Franklinville, n.
Y, in speaking of this remedy said:
II have found it eXpedient to have a
supply of Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy on hand.
1t has been family safeguard and
while especially beneficial to children,
it is equally good in adult cases. l
recommend it cheerfully and without
reservation" For sale by all medi-

The potato market has rallied slight
Ily. The bad slump of Last week Is SUN
remembered, although Virginia po-
tatoes sell around 50 20 barrel lor
good stock.
The bad break 10 the spud market
WAS principally due to the Eastern

week If this is called proper distri

The majority of the produce trade

was 30 occasion for the heavy drop
in price. The agent here probably

cars and. becoming desperate, sold
lots of stock at 81 70 barrel, when
the regular rotate receivers WERE
holding at So q $2.75 and getting III
until buyers learned they couio puy
cheaper. Another bad break was 10
loading no peddlers. Men who never
houcht more than 10 or Is barrels AT
81 time were told to get in heavier,
land several bought car loads. a
number of these buyers rejected the
Goods because they could not buy

You have been cutting at buying

paper and trying to get farmers not

TO the Exchange, now if they had
had % or so more cars at that time
what would they have done with
them?
1t appears to me that the more
BUYERS and the larger outlet we have
the better for the farmers.
