dressed in the great fur coat he used to wear.
Directly in front Of this statue, but lower
on the tier of steps, will be figure of the
colonel as sailor boy whiting out model of
a revolver, as Colonel Colt did.
The exedrae stand out from the pedestal I'M
der the principal statue at right angles, instead
OF In curves is more common Inc bronze
tablets on the extremties Of the exedra will
show In bass-relief the memorable occasion when
the British House Of Commons admitted Colonel

transferred to a cemetery. This spot is on the
brow of hill overlooking the large tract Of
lard along the Connecticut River which Colonel
Colt redeemed from inundation by building at
his own cost an immense dixie, and the buildings
of the Colt Works. Il is limited that upon her
death Mrs Colt will leave her place, including
the memorial and the land around it, to the city
o Hartford.

early dips contained high percentage OF car
bonc acid; the tick tough, and this acid
does not discriminate. While not sufficiently
strong to kill all the ticks it was far too severe
on the cattle, large numbers of which failed to
survive the ordeal
At this critical period some man in the south
ern part of Texas noticed the peculiar qualities
contained in the crude petroleum oil of that
region While its effect on vermin of all
kinds was deadly, when applied to the hands Il
was harmless beyond a slight tingling sensa-
ton This led him to try it on ''ticky" cattle,
and the way it killed all these pests was so sat
lsfactory that the news quickly spread, and be-
fore long several official tests were made, which
proved the efficacy of the oil dip beyond any
doubt
Crude petroleum of certain grade from the
Gulf districts is now the recognized dip Of the

sound.
One cannot be on the streets of Buenos Ayres
five minutes without hearing what to the I'M
trained is a distinct hiss, such as we use
in the theatre to bring sharply to book those
thoughtless people who talk out loud In the

our discomfort at particularly bad piece OF

years there open season lasting about
six weeks during which cattle from the infected

Some OF the papers of the state are
making noisy campaign Tor pro-
hihitive laws on legislative lobbying and
talk as though they expected their read
ers TO believe that the lobbyist could be
legislated out Of business. Legislation
might be had that would make it little
more inconvenient for him to carry on
his business but he wonld continue to
do business just the same just rs long No
the voters furnished him with Legislators
who were susceptible to the lobbyist in.
iiuence. II the vo,ers wish to put the
lobbyist out OF business, they Can do SO
by sending men to tho legislature who
will do no business with him. When
men are selected as Legislators becauseot
their honesty ard ability and not simply
b.c cause Of their endorsement by the
party machine bosses or the friends OF
some particular candidate for United

ind it very difficult matter to secure
