Why. how is that?"
"Oh, don't you see? He Doesn't

pushed with energy on the great en-

Little more than half the people who wanted to trolley 1t to New Hayeaz this morning could find accommodation and many got tired waiting about the center and went home.

Sayin Rock has changed con sIderably since the time when the principal attraction centered about Howe's pavilion and old Nancy Brady's fruit stand across the way. With the exception of Mr Cox there are not many of the old timers doing business at the Rock this summer, but even so waterbury people find themselves right to home once they get there, and without much hunting around can easily locate sofne of their neighbors who are in a position to give them the best of everything at reasonable prices. Bernard Coyle of Washington street, now. engaged i'll the hotel business there, appears to be making a success of # and people who have stopped at his place are his best advertisers and pilot others to the Brass City house. The same thing might be said of Miss Annie Doran of Bridge street. The trouble with Miss Doran was that she underrated her popularity and rented place which was far from meeting the demands of those who called upon her. She intends to make up for this next season by getting hold of build ing capable of accommodating larger numbers than could crowd into her present quarters.
 The amusement season at the Rock closes next week. but the hotels and boarding houses will keep open just the same.

 New London, Sept. Morton F. Plant of Branford house. has purchas- ed for his son the handsome model sloop yacht which for some time form ed an attraction in the window of Eaton X Wilson, Bank street.
 This carefully finished yacht is the exact model of a racing yacht. and is constructed throughout of aluminium. It was built by Captain De Grasse of the schooner Josie R. Bulf and the captain found his leisure time during his stay in New Haven last winter. Every part of the boat is perfectly constructed, and in working order. She is about five feet in length over all, and her mast is about five feet high.
 All her blocks are made 9f alumin- um and even the smallest are fitted with sheaves. She is equipped with an ingenious automatic steefing gear and it is said that over 3.0D0 ryets were used in the construction of her hull, which has been put together in exactly, the same manner as tue shlg racing sloops are built.

oren are a source OF endless trouble
and anxiety to their parents, yet the
childrens condition is frequently due

To make children healthy and to
keep them in that condition 1t Is nee
essary tn feed them proper food and
TO see nat they get plenty OF exer

for children. II should be avoided
and food rich in phosphates, such as
Pillsbury's Vitos, should be given in
its place.
This food is truly the meat OF the

greatest millers and it Is free from
artificial coloring or adulteration. II
is not especially a child's food. Your
whole family will enjoy this common

LURE OF THE WILD"

Dillon Wallace. the American OK

wilds of Labrador. Last spring he aud
Mrs. Leonidas Hubbard. both OF New
York, started on rival expeditions 20
carry on exploration work in far Lab
rador, in prosecution Of which Leoni-
das Hubbard, formerly well-known
Detroit newspaper man, persisted prev
iously. A. r. Burgess, customs office
at Rigiolette, Labrador, has reached
Halifax and said:
II believe Wallace's expedition Is a
failure and that possibly the members
of his party may have met the fate
that overlook poor Hubbard. On the
other hand II seems as II Mrs. Huh
bard and her party have reached their
destination"
Burgess added that when he left
Northwest river Indians had informed
him that Mrs. Hubbard was at Ungava
Pay, 10 miles distant from the objec-
tive point of her expedition. They de-
clared, however, that Wallace and his
men were on the wrong track and that
If they continued they would either be
lost or come out on the seashore hun

Claimed and Denied.

The persistent report that Mrs. Cum
life, wife of Edward G.. Cmliffe. the
Adams Express robber. had in her pos
session $4,000 of the S101 900 stolen by
her husband on October 8, were con-
firmed today when Superintendent II.
J. Biderman, of the Pinkerton detec.
tive agency, went to the Cunliffe homo
In Pittsburg, and in the lining of o
baby carriage found a package con.
tanning $4,000. On the night Cunliffe
was brought here from Bridgeport.
Conn.,, where he was captured, he
made n written confession To the an
thorities that he had given his wife
$4,000.
Following the above statement comes
this one from Mrs. Cunliffe: II EN-.
phatically deny that as a result of any
confession made by me $4,000 of the
money stolen by my husband was
found in baby carriage in our home
at Pittsburg. If the money was found,
as stated by Robert A. Pinkerton. Il
was because of disclosures made by
my husband. ! maintained throughout
the ordeal to which was subjected by
the detectives that | had none of the
stolen money, nor had | hidden any.
The allegation of Robert A. Pinkerton
regarding a confession made by me
is absolutely false"
