TYPEWRITER SUPPLIES.

Perhaps no one invention has done more to facilitate business than the use of the typewriter. The coming of this valuable adjunct to the business world, necessarily bringss a great de- mand for paper and other supplies. Two of the leading lines of typewriter paper, namely Cranes warranted all linen, which comes very thin and takes from six to eight copies, to the very heavy, suitable for records. This paper has no superior. The popular line, in. cluding @ great variety of thicknesses, is known as the Berkshire. The va riety is so great in this line, it will meet the demands of anyone requiring type writer papers. coming in either letter or legal size, ruled or plain, can be had in quantity at reduced prices, and if so desired, the little things that go with the typewriter, such as shields, oils, brushes, erasers and carbon, can all be had in great variety at pre- vailing market prices. These are to be found to suit your wants and your purse at Jackson's Book Shop, 800 Main street, Bridgeport, where you will find office supplies at the lowest market prices.

SAID IN NEW HAVEN THAT TT WILL BE
 DOUBLE TRACKED TO HAwLEY-
 WILLIE.
 In line with the statement made in The Evening News a few days ago, that the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad had begun to double track section of it's Highland divis- ion and would probably extend the work eastward to Hcwleyville, is the following from last nights New Ha- ven Register:
 The Consolidated railroad has begun the work of double tracking the High land division between the Hopewell Junction and Stormville, N. Y., near Fishkill Landing, to relieve the pres sure of freight traffic over that line. A branch of the Central New England system runs from Hopewell Junction to the Poughkeepsie bridge. It is claimed by railroad people that the acquisition of the Poughkeepsie bridge line has greatly increased the freight business of the Highland division be- tween Hopewell Junction and Hawley- vile, where the Berkshire division is crossed. It is believed that the entire section from Hopewell to Hawleyville will ultimately be double tracked. Hawleyville is distributing point for freight trains for Newburgh, Pough- keepsie, the Berkshire division, Bridge l port, Hartford and New Haven, and the export traffic of the Shore Line division, which is very important feature of the Consolidated railroads business. Now that the Poughkeepsie bridge route has been secured by the big system it will be more important distributing point than ever before |I[ [Danbury News.

The sultan of Turkey sleeps only two
or three hours out of the twenty-four
and then when some one is reading to
him or musician is performing in the

is chronic. has been brought about by
long fear of assassination. A light is
always burning in his room. and Ismet

with him in the same chamber. lsmet
Bey is the most trusted member of the

sultan appears in public ceremonies
