Changed political conditions are a.- ways marked by very peculiar antics up on the part of politicians andpart gan newspapers. Not long ago republican politicians and press were using many words each day in cOndemning the blatant d demagoguery" of William J.. Bryan, and democratic politicians and press found epitomized in the late Sen ator Hanna and other millionaire icon servatiye" republicans al the political policies that were sbhOrrent and which were dangerous to the country. Now partizan republicans cannot say too much for the sterling worth and the "patriotism of Bryan, while democrats are pratiug about the great" and "sate" Hanna

JOHN ). SPLAIN GOING.
We'll Deserved Advancement Of s. 2.
 Poli's Representative.

John J.. Splain, for many years the local representative of s. Z Poli in the matter of press work for theatrical en- agreements in both the local theaters and as well the local treasurer. will re- tire from those positions in all proba- Dility this week. He will not sever his connections with the local theatrical neld entirely, however, as he will stiIl nave supervision over the conduct Of affairs in this city. For the past few years Mir Poli has been branching out into other theatrical fields and his business had grown to such propor. tlons that he found it almost iinposgi- ble to give it the attentfon it reuuireu He decided to make change and to that end offered the position of gem eral manager of all his theaters to MT Splain. This offer was a generous one and in q way was a partial reward for the faithful services rendered by Mir Splain in the protection of Mir Poli's interests in this city. It is a reward well deserved and while the local newspapers as well as the public at large will be sorry to lose Mir Splain. they can share with him congratulas tons over his advancement. MT Splaira tired to hold of on the acceptance Of the position until next September. but MT Poli required his services at once owing to the pressure Of new theatri, cal movements
 MT Splain will make his headquar- tersl in New Haven, his former home. and will have m office in conjunction with MT Poll, who will now devote himself to the erection of his new and latest theater. The field covered bs Mr Polls interests takes in besides Waterbury, New Haven, Hartford. Bridgeport and Springfield.
 A worthy successor has been chosen to MT Splafn in the person of James William Fitzpatrick, one Of the young- est of the newspaper workers in this city, but one fitted in every way to i'll the position which he assumed to-day. MT Splain will remain here for this week to drill in his successor, first iii the newspaper part of the work, and later will turn over to his care the booking. part of the work attached to the position.

CHRISTMAS DAY.
Way the Festival Ia Celebrated oz
 Dec. 2H.


 why the Festival Is Celebrated on
 Dec. 26.
 There are no definite aIlugions in the. writings of any of the disciples of Christ as to the date of his birth, nor has there ever been produced proof of any character as to the exact period in the year when Christ was born. There are, very true, occasional references to the event in the Scriptures, indicating that the Nativity occurred in the win ter season.
 The institution of the anniversary dates back to the second century of Christendom, and it has been since uniformly celebrated by nearly all branches of the Christian church with appropriate rejoicings and ceremonies. The frequent and. somewhat heated controversies, however, relative to the date of Christ's birth early in the fourth century led Pope Julius I. to order a thorough investigation of the subject by the learned theologians and historians of that period, which re- suited in an agreement upon Dec. 25, and that decision seemed to have so settled all disputes that that date was universally accepted except by the Greek church. While this date was never changed, the reckoning of 1t is made according to the Gregorian call endar, which was adopted in the latter part of the sixteenth century, and up- on which computations of time in near ly all civilized nations have since rest ed.-American Queen.

Get Fully Acquainted with the
 Terms of Your Policy.
 ''What the average purchaser of life insurance doesn't know about the thing he is purchasing would fill good sized book printed with very narrow margins says an insurance expert. ''For instance, talked not long since with man who fancied he was in- sured for S1o,o0O on the fifteen year endowment plan. That is, he thought he had to make payments for fifteen years-which was true-and that at the end of that time he could get $1o,- 900 in cash or take a part in cash and a part in paid up insurance, which, aA 1t turned out, was not true. The rate he was paying was so very low for what he said he was getting that I asked to see his policy, and when I looked at it I found, just as he might have found on a brief examination, that while he was insured for life, with only fifteen yearly payments, he could not get the $1O,00O or any part Of 1t for a good many years more: No in surance company in the world will permit the fooling of a patron like this If it can help 1t, and yet to attribute such a mistaken idea to fraudulent misrepresentation on the part of an unworthy agent would not always be fair. Many men who take insurance, and especially those who do not decide to go in until they have looked at 1t a long time, go in finally with a rush. They don't give the agent time to tell them what they are getting, and often don't find out for years afterward. Another thing that many insured per sons do not know is that rebate on the first payment, arranged between 1the insured and the agent, sometimes renders the whole transaction invalid. !" philadelphia Record.
