and consulates detracts from the re- spect in which our officers ought to be held, and seriously impairs their weight and infiue1.ce.
 Suitable provision should be made for the expense of keeping our diplo- matic officers more fully informed of what is being done from day to day in the progress of our diplomatic affairs with other countries. The lack of such information, caused by insufficient ap- propriations available for cable tolls and for clerical and messenger service, frequently puts our officers at a great disadvantage and detracts from their usefulness. The salary list should be readjusted. It does not now cores pond either to the importance of the service to be rendered and the degree of ability and experience required in the different positions, or to the differ ence in the cost of living. In many cases the salaries are quite inadequate.

SHEPARD FOUND HIS B1cYcrE?

SHEPARD FOUND HIS BICYCrE?
 Hello, hello, is this Mr. Fay? We'll, this is MT. Shepard. want to thank you or Mrs. Fay, don't know which, but the facts of the case are these. About ten days ago came down town on a little business trip on my bicycle. I left the wheel in front of Bassett & Co.'S, the hardware people.
 When came out of the office the wheel was gone" Such was the mes sage that flashed over the telephone wires this morning at the New Haven House to MT. Fay. T advertised and tried every way to locate the bicycle, but 10 no avail" continued MT. Shep- ard, land had given the matter up as lost. Friday night I was talking to 8 friend and the subject of your wife's work came up. Why don't you ask Mrs. Fay?' suggested my friend, about your wheel?' Now MT. Fay, I must confess to you and at the same time bey your pardon for being a doubting Thomas. It is a good show anyhow said my friend; let us go ONSA ~h1oliddy ehARh SCe IllS II etyS. Uhety- be and maybe not she will tell you something; it will do no harm You can we'll imagine my surprise when Mrs. Fay called me by name and told me all about the missing bicycle, and advised me to go out to about two miles out of the city limits, on the right side of the road to Fair Haven I would notice a shanty which had been used by some Italians last summer; to make my way into this and underneath some old boards, boxes and rubbish piled in one corner would find my wheel. We'll now, MT. Fay, to tell the truth, I had no confidence in Mrs. Fay's statement, and eonseuently paid no attention to it; told my experience to my wife last night and promptly forgot the whole affair until this morn ing, when my wife suggested it would do no harm to go and look where Mrs. Fay had told me. I don't know what to saS MT. Fay. I am simply oyer- awed and probably the most surprised man in New Haven, for, sure enough, I found the wheel just as Mrs. Fay had said, in the corner of the hut on the right side of the road to Fair Ha- ven. It was covered up with a lot of rubbish; I got the wheel and rode home on it. Now, Mr Fay, offered ten dollars for its recovery, and l. feel that it is yours, and am coming Mon- day night and will leave the money in the box office." ..,,n >.

 BREAKERS AHEADs
Some Cofree Users Hit the Rocks Hnrt

The experience of a working minister illustrates the grave dangers into which coffee drinking leads the unconscious victim.
 Deranged nerves, clegged liver and
 disturbed heart action, are rarely at-
 tributed by the sufferers to the right cause, and the aid of powerful and dangerous drugs is sought to give the relief. Opium, in its various forms, is the result, too frequently, that as the use of the coffee is continued, the ail-
 ment grows worse, and larger and larger doses of the drug are demanded.
 Then comes a day when the victim realizes with horror that he has be- come the slave of a terrible habit, the most difficult to overcome of any known to medical practice. Thousands
 go to their graves every year because of drug addictions, and the proportion of those who recover is very small in- deed, for to break the chain that binds the sufferer strength of will power Is required of which the drug has already
 robbed him.
 Very few, perhaps, ever deliberately
 make choice of indulgence in hypno- tic drugs. In the majority of cases the
 use is begun merely as a temporary
 expedient, and with no thought of its
 continuance; but with each dose the power to resist the appetite it creates grows less. And those who do not un- i derstand the dangers of coffee indul- gence are, because of that very ignor- ance, the more easily led to the verge of moral as well as physical ship { wreck.
 The clergyman referred to says that he had been a coffee drinker for twen- ty years, and that as time went on he became a semi-invalid. Tt made me so nervous and dull and stupid that I often resorted to hypnotic drugs to in-
 duce sleep or to enable me to make the necessary preparations for the pulpit" A clergyman is expected to preach
 good sermons, and when he finds his intellectual faculties have grown so
 sluggish that he cannot properly pre- pare himself, it may be readily seen that the temptation to use stimula- ting drug to overcome this inertia and quicken his powers might prove fairly | irresistible
 The time came to him when he re- alized his dangerous condition. It must be serious for a religious teacher to drift into such a state: he states that about that time he went through the Postum factories at Battle Creek and saw how Postum Coffee is made, and when he went home he determined to make the struggle for freedom. He found it easy to rid himself of the cof-
 fee habit at once for Postum gave him
 the hot delicious beverage he wanted for breakfast and no drug. but rather the strong rebuilding food elements.
 Thereupon his natural sleep returned,
 the pains in head disappeared and the old Iethargy left and he says the growth in his "vigor and strength has been most remarkable" A true and happy return to natural conditions and | perfect health. It's worth while.

PALE FACES
By Some Thought to Denote Refine
 ment,

What a mistake! In place of re- finement pale faces denote debility.
 "A bloodless face indicates anaemia or impoverished blood, pure and sim pie.
 What is the result? A weakened condition of the entire system, the de- velopment of humors, disfguring erup- tions, and finally a general collapse.
 we wish your paper would tell eve " man, woman and child In New Ha- ven-yes, and every old person, that we are so sure that our famous cod liver oil preparation, Vinol delicious to taste and without oiD will make rich, red blood, create strength and restore them to a normal condition, that we will pay for all the Vinol they take if it does not succeed.
 "Why are we so sure? Simply be- cause Vinol contains in a highly con- centrated form all of the vital medi- cinal principles of cod liver oil actually taken from fresh cods' livers and without the useless system-clogging oil to upset the stomach and retard its work.
 "Vinol in a natural manner viii tone up the stomach, make rich, red blood and strengthen every organ in the body to do it's work as nature intended. We do not ask the people of New Ha- ven to take our word for it, but simply to try Vinol on our guarantee. .''- Hull's Corner Drug Store.

 Can you or can you not keep the average man in Ward 19 in Boston, or in the slums of New York, so that he shall prefer to be represented in the legislature by a man who has not been in the states prison? The average bartender does not care, the man who is dismissed from the house of correc- ton does not care. But can you keep the average voter, and, what is quite as important, can you keep his wife, up to that standard? do not, believe in what is called political preaching. I believe that the Sunday worship is to bring men nearer to God, and to help them find out how near he is to them All the same I think that an excellent use of Sunday is made when the peo- pie in a. church meet after the benedic- ton in their Citizenship Class and hear the warden of a. prison tell what the prisons of the state need, or the superintendent of education tell what the schools need, or the chairman of the overseers of the poor tell every man and woman of them what is the "best" management of the poorhouse or of outdoor relief.
 I believe that the head-master of a school or a young woman who has charge of Class Number Nine of the ages between eleven and twelve in the graded system of Ward 999 is well em- ployed when either the head-naster or the normal school girl makes those children understand what the Golden Rule is, and whom it came from, and where it came from. am apt to think that the justice in the probation court who takes into his private room a boy who has been spoiled by a yellow-cov- cred novel, and talks as father ought to talk to that boy, and puts him in the way of a better life, is improving the chances of good government in the next generation quite as much as the examining committee is who is care- full to see that the policeman on my beat spells the word "seize" right, and does not spell it wrong.-Edward Ever ett Hale in Christian Herald.

All hope of ratifying the Dominican protocol has been abandoned by the president and the republican leaders but the senate has not yet adjourned sine die. remaining in session on the ground that there are certain judicial nominations which must be confirmed before final adjournment can be taken. Senator Morgan of Alabama last week sprung sensation on the senate by attempting to show that William Nel- son Cromwell. the lawyer who en- gineered the sale of the Panama canal property to the United States and who is suspected by some democrats of having melted the Panama revolution, had been the deus ex machina of the San Domingo situation. Senator Mor- gan exhibited to the senate letters from Nr and Mrs Reeder, formerly of Alabama. in which they charged that Cromwell had defeated treaty be- tNCCli cdhto JollluSo anu llC lHltSu States, which has been prepared by MT Reeder and that he had caused to be substituted the protocol now under consideration by the senate. When the ''proposed' Reeder treaty was read in the senate it was found to afford every advantage to the republic of Santo Domingo and to "the Reeder syndicate but none to this country and it occasi0ned considerable ridicule at the hands of the republicans, but there are many democrats who believe that there may be some foundation for Mir Morgan's charges. at least sufficient to warrant very thorough investiga- tiOn. Senator Morgan has introduced in the senate q resolution instructing the committee on foreign relations to corGuct such Investlgat or, ,,~by sub
 committee or otherwise, butrat present there seems little likelihood of its adop- ton. Meanwhile. Mr Cromwell has himself emphatically denied that hr has now or ever had any connection whatsoever with Santo Domingo or that he would profit in any respect from the ratification of the protocol.

of the usual type would have cost. The disadvantages are that the omni- buses, necessarily heavy, aye expen- sive to make, costing about $3,500 each. In addition 25 per cent more current is used. Nevertheless the f. nal cost balance is said to be in favor of the trackless trolley, because, be- sides the original saving in construc- ton, nothing is expended for main- tenance of rails and for the installa- tion and operation of safety appli- ances. In addition to the Dresden Klotsche line, there are now trackless trolleys in the Bila valley, Germany, and also an experimental line in France, where d speed of eight and One-half miles an hour was attained over level stretches of road. Because of the poor quality of the average American road, only in parts of the country would it be practicable to use these pOnderous machines. In New England and some of the middle states, however, Mr Walsh thinks it may be feasible to use them. Towns and villages, and especially summer resorts whose railroad stations are re- mote and which are not large enough to warrant tracklaying, may find the system suited to their needs.

There is significant suggestion in the coincidence of two current items of news. One is that the Prussian diet is passing by overwhelming majorities bills for the construction of an elab- crate system of canals connecting the nfvigable rivers of the kingdom and connecting with the canal and river systems of the empire and of Austro- Hungary. The other is that the gov. ernmeDt is considering the construc. ton of an electric railroad from Rer. lin to Hamburg the trains on which shall make more than hundred miles an hour. The coincidence and the whole example of Germany count heavi- ly against the anti-canal contention that canals are obsolete and must give way to railroads as means of transpor. tation. says one writer. There is no country in the world more strictly up to date in engineering than is Ger many. The experiments between Der lin and Iossen in rapid electric trac- tion have attracted the admiring at tcntion of the world. Yet now. just as the building of long stretch of high speed railroad is contemplated practically. the government commits Itself to q scheme Of canal constrnc- ton and extension of the most elab- crate kind. far surpassing anything proposed in this country. Evidently our German cousins and rivals do not consider canals to he obsolete.

A systematic effort is to be made by the Old Settlers club in Milwaukee, Wis, to collect papers and mementos of Solomon Juneau. the founder of Mil waukee. At a recent meeting of the club Peter Van vechten, IT,, was con- missioned to go to Theresa, Wis. for the purpose of looking up and securing as many of these as are of historical value and which are in possession of descendantSof Juneau there. says the Milwaukee Wisconsin. Among the rel ics are andirons which were used in Juneau's cabin. pieces of his first stove. box of letters and other articles.
