DO NOT ALTER STAMPS.
Advice Which Is Valuable to the Col lector Custom of Erasing
 Out of Date.

No change or alteration of any sort should be made by collector in his stamps. advises St. Nicholas It was a custom some years ago among col lectors to erase cancellation marks from their stamps, in order to make their stamps better. The effect of the attempt was not all that could be de- sired. The erasures were not perfect, and the stamps in the changed con- dition, being neither cancelled nor un- cancelled, were simply inferior dam aged specimens One of the most com mon ways of altering stamps at the present time is to erase the word specimen" from stamp having this overprint. It cannot be done so that 1t will not be detected, and the stamp in the altered condition is worthless, while as a specimen" it had some value It has frequently happened that stamps, valuable in their original condition, have been made worthless by attempts to increase their value by alteration.

NAUGATUCK NUGGETS.

Peter Mahon, aged about 70 years, was found dead in the Glove Co.'S raceway, just above the Maple street crossing, yesterday morning shortly after 9 o'clock Truman Stearns, who is employed by Dr Bull, saw a mans head just over the water in the raceway yesterday morning. The body was immediately taken from the water and identified as that or Peter Mahon. Deputy Medical Ex- aminer Futile was notified and after viewing the body gave permission for it's removal. Peter Mahon was one of Naugatuck's oldest residents and was well known. Hardly per son can be found whom Peter did not know He was pleasant old gen. tleman of kindly disposition and al- ways had a cheery greeting for all who came his way. He was last seen on Friday night and it is thought fell in the raceway while walking up the track. The news that Peter Mahon's body had been found in the raceway caused considerable excitement and mary could not believe that the pleas ant, kindly and always sooiable Peter Mahon had met such q tragic death. The body was removed to his late home on North Main street. He is survived by widow and four chill dren, Thomas James, Margaret and Mrs J. H. Mclean, wife of Patrol man Mclean of Waterbury. The fu- neral will be held tomorrow morning probably at 8:3O from the house and 9 o'clock from St Francis church. The family request that flowers be omitted

MUCH UNDARNED HOSIERY
Crusty Bachelor Visits Broadway and Finds Stockings with Holes
 Very Numerous.

There's pile of women in this town who don't know much about darning," said the crusty bachelor to New York Sun man.
 How do know?" he replied to the question. Because I'm keeping my eyes open. This is what call the low shoe era Everybody men, wom- en and children wears 'em now. Just you stand or Broadway any fine after- noon and watch the folks file past. Then you will learn why I say there are pile of women in this town who don't know anything about alarming. Watch their feet, and 1t will surprise you to see the number of women wear ing stockings with holes in them. You don't have to rubber to see it, either. A blind man could see some of the holes in some of those stockings''
 Then the crusty bachelor strode away.

WOMEN ARE SOPHISTICATED
Disagreeable Man Makes Remarks About Apparent Stupidity of
 Female Travellers.

'I'd like to know why it is that a woman can't see an empty seat on an open car when it's staring her in the face" said a disagreeable man, grum- pier than usual under the influence of the heat, to a Chicago Inter Ocean man. i've had to ride all over town son surface cars a good deal this sum mer, and I've seen cars delayed time and again by the apparent stupidity of women who couldn't find seat Of course a woman can't travel along the footboard like man; but why, after she has taken plenty of time to survey car which Is only half filled, will she insist on climbing into row where she either has to stand up until some perpsiring man gives up his seat to her, or else squeeze in where she has to sit on the edge? The man will have his seat picked out be- fore the car stops. He has no trouble in picking out the empty spaces in the car. But nine out of ten women go all to pieces the minute the car stops
 After a woman has done a few laps alongside the car looking for an empty seat, it's dollars to doughnuts that she will pick a full one and pass right by one that's got some room in 1t"

GRAFT THAT IS ROMANTIC.
"Fake' Marriage Ceremony That Is Engineered by Smart
 Swindlers.

The best gratis in the world are built up on copy book maxims and psalms and proverbs and Esaus fables. They seem to kind of hit off human nature, says Me Clure's Magazine. Our peaceful little swindle was constructed on the old say ing: "The whole push loves alover."
 One evening Buck and Miss Malloy drives up like blazes in a buggy to 8 farmers door. She Is pale but affec- tionate, clinging to his m-alWays clinging to his arm. Any one can see she is peach and of the cling variety, They claim they are eloping for to be mar ried on account of cruel parents They ask where they can find preacher. Farmer says: "B'gufn, there ain't any higher than Rev. Abels, four mile over on Honey creek" Farmeress wipes her hand on her apron and rubbers through her specs.
 Then To. and look vel Up the road from the other way iogs Parleyvoo Pick ems in a gig, dressed in black, white neck tie, long face, snifing his nose, emit- ting q spurious kind of noise resemb- ling the long meter doxology.
 "'B'jinks!' says the farmer, if thar ain't a preacher nowi"
 K It transpires that am Rev. Abijah Green, travelling over to Little Bethel schoolhouse for to preach next Sunday.
 The young folks will have it they must be married, for pa is pursuing them with the blow mules and the blackboard. So Rev. Green, after hesitations, marries 'em in farmers parlor. And farmer grins, and has in the cider, and says "B'gum!" and farmeress sniffles a bit and pats the bride on the shoulder. And Parleyvoo Pickens. the wrong reverend, writes out marriage certificate, and 1 farmer and farmeress sign it as wit nesses. And the parties of the first sec- ond and third part gets in their vehicles and rides away. Oh, that was an idyllic graftl True love and the lowing kline l and the sun shining on the red barns l it certainly had all impostures know about beat to batter.
 I suppose happened along in time to marry Buck and Miss Malloy at about 20 farmhouses I hated to think how 1 the romance was going to fade later on when all them marriage certificates turned up in the banks where we'd dis countend 'em, and the farmers had to pay them notes of hand they'd signed, running from $500 to $500

WAITER WHO WAS AN ACTOR.
His Stage Salary Was Not Enough to Keep Him in likeness Dur
 ing Summer.


 ''It is not only college boys that earn vacation money by working as walters in summer hotels" said New York man who lives at his club all summer while his family is at the seaside, re- lates the Times. Last week was up the New England coast arranging to settle the folks. I had to hurry away from the city during the first hot spell with 8 good deal of unfinished busl- ness on my hands. The thought of spending an idle evening in the coun- try hotel worried me. My waiter at table seemed nice young fellow, and said to him:
 I suppose can't get a stenograph- CT and typewriter around here with otu driving to the village?'
 Must the work be done tonight? T he asked.
 Well, I should like it first thing in the morning I replied. 'Why?'
 ''The young man went away without replying, and as the landlord came up to speak to me just then I forgot all aboutNthe matter After dinner, while was taking a stroll and a smoke, my waiter came up to me- If you will come to my room down the street. he said, I shall be happy to take those letters for you at the same rate per folio you would pay for them in the city. They shall be ready before you come down to breakfast in the morn- ing.
 "I went. Long before midnight had cleared up whole batch of stuff I was afraid would have to wait until got back to town. As a result, re. mained two days, enjoying more or less of a rest. Taat waiter took dicta- tion for me when he was not at work in the dining room. s3S
 "T am an actor, he said but don't yet earn salary enough in win ter to keep me idle all summer, pre- fer to earn my living during the dull season in this way rather than work in New York. Managers and play wrights who give me manuscript to copy during vacation think I am sum- mering at this hotel. The boss under stands and lets my mail from the city come with that of the other guests.
 hire a room in cottage so that I shan't disturb folks when work at night. When go back to town am in good shape physically, and have money in my pocket. That's better than owing boarding house keepers and borrowing money from the man agement to begin the season

WATERFRONT .JOTTINGS

The recent trial here and the ac- count Of the same written by one of the Waterbury men who was present at the same has given rise to much criticism on the part of some local citizens. The fact that the holders of court here were ridiculed is the chief topic of conversation, not only because it is an unfair way of strik- ing back at those who had the better of the argument, but also because some of the statements printed by these Waterbury men were erroneous. The one to which particular attention might be called is that one in which statement was made of the fact that MT Skilton showed poor judgment in his examination of one of the wit nesses. When Walter Freeman was on the witness stand MT Lahey counsel for the Scanlon boy, asked him if he thought the horse which these boys were seen driving was in any way abused. To this question MT Skilton took exception, saying that since the boys were not charged with abuse of the animal such ques- tions did not seem necessary. Jus tice Dayton sustained MT Skilton in his objection. Tn the report of the case Mir Lahey was pointed out as the one who reprimanded MT Skilton for asking such question.

POINTS ON COMING STYLES.
Novelties in Millinery, Dress Mate rials and Furnishings for
 Autumn.

The bird of paradise waves upon 8 ma- iority of the handsomest Dtrectoire hats worn by Parisiennes It will probably be adopted here in the autumn. reports the New York Sun. n ee M
 The high crowned hat has undeniably found pronounced favor in France and Ehe fad will doubtlessly reach us later, Although American women have not, 80 far taken kindly to the innova- ton.
 Velvets and velveteens will be greatly worn in the coming season and are ideal materials for the Directoire coats, con- corning which one hears so much proph- ecy.
 The extremely high corset, much like bodice without sleeves or shoulder straps, has been launched by certain Partisan autocrats and is worn with a full chemisette and sleeves of embroid- cred muslin or batiste.
 sCretes" are one of the latest develop ments of 1880 trimmings. They are merely narrow scalloped frills of silk sherred and set on upside down so that they stand up like exaggerated head fngs.
 Narrow, scal1oped, superimposed ErilIs used in great numbers are another of the 1S0 ideas recently revived.
 Many of the new gloves are lined with contrasting color or have frill of lace set on with shirred ribbons and falling over the glove tops.
 Mitts are not universally worn, but many fashionable women have taken them up for wear with elbow sleeves.
 The Greek key design in braiding or embroidery is much favored by French dressmakers.
 The indications are that the new shades called mulberry will be. popular colorings in the autumn and that the warm browns and reseda greens will re- new their last seasons success.
 Dove gray chiffon made over silver gaue combines beauty and service in a summer frock.
 Chemisettes, fuckers and undersleeves of genuine old openwork or other em- broidery upon muslin are in great de- nand.
 Ons of the latest innovations in om- bre or shaded effects is shown in the shaded sashes, which are of faintest hue about the waist, but gradually deep- en to a dark shade of the same color at the ends.
 The new coaching parasols are of very heavy silk in plain color, with exceeding iy long wooden handles matching the silk in color and tied with big bow of silk like the cover
 Sleeve frills have lost caste because of excessive popularity, and turned back cuffs of Rfrectcire suggestion are having great vogue as sleeve finish.
 Openwork English embroidery on black linen is considered chic for mourn ing wear.
