 list for the appointment, all being mem bers of the board of trustees at pres ent. .s r. < The bill providing that no street railway shall charge more than five cents on it's lines within the limits of a town will come up before the railroad committee Thursday, March g. While there is something to be said in favor of the bill there is lots to be said against it. There is hardly an extend ed trolley road i'll Connecticut that would not be seriously crippled by it's passage. The five cent fare is the thing in the cities, but the moment long lines in the country are reached, running through long distances the service cannot be reached for five cents. The Hartford Street Railway company, the Hartford, Manchester and Rock ville' Tramway company in running their lines to country terminals collect three fares while only going through two towns. But that is less than two cents a mile for each passenger.
 Senator Peck of Waterbury is not sanguine that the bill providing for control of the waters of the Nauga- tuck and its tributaries will be carried through the legislature in its present form. J. H. Whittemore, who is one of the incorporators, has sent for the full text of the measure, with the view of eliminating objectionable features. Senators Phelan of Waterbury and Shanley of New Haven have been on guard against the bill as it now stands, claiming that it gives powers that can not be safely vested in any corporation. Senator Peck will not stand for any thing that deprives the public of their rights in the Naugatuck valley and will accept any notifications of the bill

KEEP MIND ON THE DRAFT
Way TO Avoid Taking Cold When
Out for Ride on the
Trolley.

The trolley cold. which is the re-
suit OF exercise followed by a ride in
a street car. Is just now easier to catch
than at any other time. Then there
is also the subway cold, produced by
the same causes and just as violent in
its effects, says the New York Sun.
Nobody need suffer from either sort
of cold. II the testimony Of physician
is OF any value.
Nobody need catch cold. even in a
draft, he told patient the other day
so long as he continues conscious OF
the fact that there is a draft blowing
on him. Just keep that in mind and
there is no danger s.
But forget II for moment and
there is going TO be trouble. Taking
cold is largely a matter OF nerves, and
any man who follows my advice, sitI
tight and thinks OF the draft all the
time that It is blowing on him vii

Speaking of the life of ships the
other day, George F. Sproule, secretar-
ry of the Board of Port Wardens. said
about the Oldest vessel he knows of is
the True Love. which. If she is afloat
to-day, is 149 years old.
The True Love was built in this city
in 1764, and though she was only SO
feet and inches long, and of 26 feet
beam, she was the largest ship that
had been in these waters up to. that
time. She sailed from this port in
1865, and did not return until 1873,
when she was 100 years old. She came
in with load of cryolite from Ivigtut.
Greenland. Then she sailed again,
and was no longer heard of until dis
covered in 1899 in the Thames river.

she was and possibly still is doing

lmmiarant. Seek the cities.

The volume of immigration during
the past four years has never been
equaled. One million came to this
country from abroad last year, and
they are coming faster than ever.
What is to be done with them? Tho
tendency of late years is to congre-
gate in the cities. In earlier days the
tide of immigration spread out over
the country A majority made the
fertile lands of the west their destina-
ton. There they fixed themselves,
absorbed the spirit Of our institutions
and grew up with the country" A
generation ago, agriculture was the
main source Of national wealth. To.
day, manufacturing and trade make
the greater demand upon the service
of our workers, and instead of the
open plains the crowded cities are
sought by those who come here to
find employment and to better theiI
condition in life.-Boston Post.

RAILWAY RATES.
Advantages Possessed by Americans in
Our Low Rates.

Compilations made from foreign and
domestic statistics show freight rate
on English roads of nearly cents per
mineral ton-mile. The actual figures
are 1.93 cents. A ton-mile of merchan-
disc or live stock costs 2.94, and on all
commodities an average of G.32.
Against these the figures for the
United States are startlingly small, be-
ing 0.5S cent. On German roads it is
LAP cents; on French, 1.55; Austrian,
1.16, and Hungarian, 1.3O.
England's passenger rates per milo
on the same classes as cited for the
United States were 4 cents, Germany's
3.S cents. For their average days
wages workmen can travel as follows:
American, 65 miles; British, So; Ger
man, SO; French, 40; Belgian, Sc:
Italian, 3S and East Indian, q.
On American roads locomotive engi-
neers average 81 day; English, $1.62;
Belgian, $1.01. American firemen get
1928; British, 81 cents; Belgian, 72
cents. Railroad laborers in the United
States get from two to four times as
much as laborers on foreign roads.
Forty per cent. of the gross earnings
of American railroads goes to labor,
while only twenty-five per cent. goes.
to capital.
In England labor gets twenty-seven
per cent, capital thirty-eight per cent;
in Germany the division is equal.
In the last four years American roads
paid $S74.000. 900 for cars. engines, etc.

BLACK vULTURE A CURIOSITY.
Rare Specimen Found by Farmer Near
Buffalo, N. Y.

Buffalo, N. Y.
Thanks to l.. s. Bachus, a well-to-
do farmer living near Derby, Erie
county, the Buffalo zoo now owns
what is believed to be the only vulture
living in northern climes. What
makes the story more. interesting is
the fact that this bird was grown in
Eyie county and was grown wild at
that.
Mr. Bacsus WAS doing some work in
one of his fields when he noted an un-
usually large bird perched upon hol-
low log. The birds actions led him
to believe that it's home was in the
hollow log, SO he approached for pur-
poses of inspection at close quarters.
AS he drew near the log the bird
which was full grown black vulture
or turkey buzzarG, flew away. Mr.
Bachus then Investigated the interior
of the log and found nest contain
ing young vulture. He did not
know what the bird was, but he de-
termined to find out, SO he hitched up
and drove to Buffalo.
DIR. Crandall at once recognized a
rare specimen, for these parts, and he
told Mr.. Bachus that he never knew of
but one Of this species nesting SO far
north as this. The vulture is already
a big bird, although only about three
months old, being much larger than a
large crow and measuring fully four
feet from tip to tip of its wings.-Buf-
