 President Roosevelt's order which practically puts all veterans of the civil war over 62 years of age on the pension list, is a bold stroke, but will necessarily be approved by the Tepub- lican majority in congress, which can not afford to deprive him of credit fo1 taking care of the old soldiers" Yet it appears to be stretching the law very much to so construe it, and takes from congress an initiative which bot senators and members have been in the habit of guarding very jealously.- Hartford Times.

Speaking of the Bristow report and other postal matters, a writer in a New York paper says that the post office lies under the ban of some logical free traders, such as Gerritt Smith and Herbert Spencer. The late Mar shall Jewell, who was postmaster-gen- eral under President Grant, told a friend once that the business of carrying letters in this country could be left with safety to private enter prise, as we had passed the point at which it ought to be source of loss. But there are few who would venture upon that experiment. The country, for public and national reasons, needs to maintain prompt and cheap com munication between it's people. This is one of the bonds which hold us to- gether as people. Private enterprise would give us this between the older and more closely settled parts Of the country. It would even cheapen the cost of carrying letters for the whole region east of the Allegheny noun tains. and maintain it as cheap as #

LARAREE'S DEATH.

veteran Missionary and Servant
 Killed by Persian Robbers.
 URMIA, Persia, March 1S.-An in- vestigation into the death of the Rev. pr. Benjamin Labaree, the American missionary, shows that Dr. Labaree, whose son is superintendent of the American mission here, was returning from Koia to Urmia on horseback. accompanied by a servant, when both were found dead by the roadside. Their bodies had been stripped ard mutilat- ed and had numerous stabs. The horses and effects of the travellers were missing.
 Dr. Labaree leaves a widow and four children. Steps have been taken to discover the assassins.
 Dr. Labaree was one of the best known Presbyterian missionaries in the Asiattc field, having been stationed in Persia since 1860. He was nearly seventy years old, and one of his two sons, the Rev. Benjamin W. Labaree, was assisting the deceased in bis work in Persia. Dr. Labaree came from Massachusetts and graduated from MiddletoWn college, Vermont,

DIETRICH HITS BACK.
Has Promise From Roosevelt to Re-
 move Summers on Conditions.

Has Promise From Roosevelt to Re-
 move Summers on Conditions.
 WASHINGTON, March 1S - The president will probably order the dis missal of Williamson S. Summers as United States attorney for the district of Nebraska. He gave this assurance to Senator Dietrich.
 MT. Dietrich wants revenge because MT. Summers brought about his indict. ment by the grand jury on the charge of accepting brSbe.
 The president told Senator Dietrich that if the senator was exonerated by the senatorial committee now inVesti. gating his conduct he would dismiss Summers. The court before which Dietrich was brought for trial decided that the prosecution could not pro- ceed since the offense, if any, was committed before Dietrich took the oath of office, although subsequent to his election as senator.
 H. c. Lindsay will probably succeed W. s. Summers. He is at present in hospital too i'll to hear the news of Summers promised removal. Lind say is Senator Dietrich's candidate for the office.

Bowery Cheers Helen Gould

NEW YORK, March IS. -- Mission workers in New York cannot remem- Der an occasion when one who was a stranger in all but name ever received such an ovation as was given to Miss Helen Gould last night at the Bowery mission. Wave after wave of applause swept over the 800 men gathered in the hall at every mention of her name
 When she finished making brief ad. dress the enthusiasm was tremendous
 and as she stepped into her automo- bile to be driven away, after she had spent two hours in the mission, she was given such hearty cheers as the Bowery has not heard in many a day.

The boys and girls of the graduat- ing class at the High school, (Torrington> celebrated St Patric3's day by appearing at the morning session, the boys in high collars painted in emerald green, and the girls with shirtwaists, hair rib bons and belts of green. Superin- tendent Forbes met the delegation at the head of the stairs and sent the pu- pills home to change their colors.- Dispatch in Morning Paper.
 The general verdict, we think, will be that Principal Forbes did the right thing. The wearing of the green and the stars and stripes, for that matter, is becoming a good dear or a farce on certain occasions. The teacher or the person in charge of pupils should see to it that the school room is not made the headquarters for burlesquers or would-be jokers. The thing is being overworked, and it is high time some one placed firm hand on the cul- prits. A Superintendent Forbes was needed in Hartford the past few days.

The cat is out of the bag at last. Some people have been wondering why President Roosevelt's sympathies lean toward Japan. Now we are told that he has taken up the wrestling fad. and has a Japanese expert to throw him about, and in turn to oc- casionally throw the expert over his head. The president thinks that he ss inf1icting punishment enough on Japanese subjects in the white house cellar, and so can hardly refuse the balance of the Japs his sympathy.

The rapid increase in the catalogue of sports organized for college rivalry seems to have been checked by the de cision reached both by Yale and liar yard to drop basketball after the pres ent season, says a writer in q sporting journal. The reasons given are inter esting as showing the attitude of these institutions toward the minor sports Harvard takes the ground that there are too many of these intercollegiate teams, the list including rowing, base ball, track events, indoor gymnastics, tennis, hockey, golf, lacrosse, basket ball, fencing and shooting, not to mem ton chess and debating. It is claimed that these teams seriously overlap each other in their playing seasons, some of them d1verting athletes whose services would be more efficient else where, and that so few of them can pay their own way in gate receipts that their multiplicity has become g serious drain on the athletic treasury. Basketball has enjoyed such a national popularity that it's decline at Yale and Harvard seems surprising. One cause of this decision, however, is that organ ization and specialization have been carried to excess. No sooner were stu dents keenly interested in the game than it became an intercollegiate insti- tuition. This meant training table coaches, heavy expense. Trying for the team'' then meant the exclusion of many young men who liked to play the game for the fun of it. The stand ards were too exacting and the amount of time demanded for practice too much for the average student. Nor did he wish to take up the training with the chance of being relegated to the "scrubs.'

now is in the upper Mississippi valley.
 It could afford to give us 1-cent post
 age throughout the former area, and,
 if competition were allowed, 1t would
 be forced to do so. But in the less
 populous districts, for this very reason, it would have to charge more and
 carry letters less regularly to their peo- pie. To prevent this we have the United States postoffice, and we will continue to have it at least until the
 density of the population is so equal
 ized as to make 1t possible for private capital to do the work equally well.
 That the work of carrying letters is as well managed as is the conduct of pri- vate business cannot be said with
 truth. The single matter of delivering g letters sent from either of two cities
 of great population, which lie but nine
 ty miles apart, to the other, shows this. The trains on the two railroads, which
 connect them, make the journey in
 from an hour and half to two hours ! time. Yet letter mailed before noon in either of those cities will not be de- .livered until late in the afternoon in the other, and frequently not until next
 morning, as can be testified to from repeated experience. Such are the accommodations secured for over six millions of peo- pie in the most densely people part
 Of the country. What must it be iH
 those where the population is scattered over mountain or prairie?

A lot of people in this country are Kicking Mormon Shoot because he has more than one wife, but these same people are throwing up their hats and praying for the success of the mikado of Japan, who also has several wives, or at least he has children that he calls his own, although the empress of Japan is childless.

WonEN's UNION IN CHICAGO
From Trades Unions in Petticoats, 1T
 Leslie's Monthly for March.

.We have just fifty-one members in our union and twenty-six of them are grass widows" was the startling information vouchsafed by the walk ing delegate of the Lady Core-mak- ers'' Of Chicago. It was at a meet ing of the executive board of the Lady Core-makers convened in the Brass Moulders' headquarters to de termine whether the Lady Core-nak- CTS should run the bar at their forth coming ball. or whether they should rent the privilege to their brother craftsmen, the brass mo1Ilders, The latter. as the debate developed, had offered the paltrv sum of $175 for the privilege. The suggestion was re- ceived with misses.
 What's to hinder our own selves from running our own bar at our our own ball?" oueried one sister.
 That's what say"
 'I move. Wa allow the Gentlemen Brass Moulders to run our bar in con- sideration of the payment to the Lady Core makers of the sum of $500, cash down On the spot" moved the parl a. mentarian, Miss Harkins. amid unani- nous applause. Resuming her seat she turned to me and said: T tell you these men will do you every time they get 8 chance. They'll do you up in business, they'll do you up in nlatri- mony and they'll do you in the un,on, too. every time, if they get chance.
