TOTE is A GOOD WORD.
Southerners May BE Distinguished by
the Use of 1t.

Southerners May Be Distinguished by
the Use of 1t.
Speaking of provincialisms, l no.
tice that New York paper has discov-
cred that all Southerners can be easily
recognized because they use the Afri-
can word tote" said a man who
takes an interest in words in the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. THE paper
declares that Westerners say 'pacK'
and Southerners say tote Well, we
could admit 1t without blushing. Tote
Is a good word. 1t describes the thing
1t is short, stralght-cut, stands well
in it's boots and, in fine, meets all the
requirements of the situation. Even
the habit of 'toting' is not bad one
if you are careful about what you
tote There Is very little difference,
so we are told by men who are in p0-
sition to know, between the physical
energy required 10 tote and to carry.
OF course, If you tote thing instead
of carrying 1t there may be a differ
ence of several pounds In the weight.
but we have every reason for believing
the difference would not be great.

legal aspect OF the question. the Law

The sounds emitted by telegraph and
telephone wires have been a subject
OF study by #. Book, who claims to
have made 1t possible to forecast local
weather conditions one or more days
ahead from the hummng. observa-
IONS are made at IL a. m. and p. m
The snalls sense of smell has been
located in the horns by some observ-
ers, but authorities quite as good have
regarded this conclusion as incorrect
Nj. Young, who has been making ex.
periments to settle the matter, now
claims to have proven that the snairs
nose is distributed over the entire
body.
The new motor forge Of the United
States army is vehicle l215 feet long,

The deplorable summer waste of
child life, especially in crowded cities,
calls for scientific attention A recent
medical writer claims that the cpl

may be avoided by the following pre-
cautions: % Clean milk nipples. %

The brief operations of the wireless
telegraph service undertaken for the
London Times at the seat of the Russo
japanese war, and ended by the in.
reference OF the Japanese govern
ment, throw much light on the detcc-
tive powers of wireless telegraphy. In
this case the DelF0rest system was en-
ployed. The land station was at Wei
haiwei, with a mast 40 feet high The
mast on the telegraph ship was 90
feet high. Both Russian and Japa-
| nese messages We're received by the
operator, who could easily recognize
the difference in the systems employ
ed. He could tell if Russian ship
was at sea by listening to the an
swering messages from shore. He
| could also tell whether the Japanese
messages were transmitted from a re
lay base, or whether the fleet itself
was at sea.
The question whether America or
Europe has the swifter railroad trains
is one the answer to which varies from
time to time with the progress of
events. According to comparison of
schedules for this year, made by the
! Scientific American, the English and
| French trains are at present decidedly
ahead Of our own. With the exception
of the Empire State Express, which
averages 54.5 miles an hour, and the
| Twentieth Century Limited, 80 miles,
it appears that we have no trains run
ming long distances comparable in
speed with many in England and
France There are 35 French trains
scheduled to run at an average speed
Of 80 miles an hour or more, and 90
English trains that are equally fast.
Our two fast trains, ii Is true, 20 long
er distances and are much heavier, but
they have proportlonally larger en-
gines

The formal entry of the Japanese in
to Port Arthur, January s, will be an
imposing spectacle The japanese
officers will be given a banquet in the
city hall January 10.
The reason for the surrender of the
fortress is evident from visit to Wan
tai hill. The entire strength of the
position lay in the main line Of the
outer defenses.
The possession of Wantia gave the
beseigers the key to the forts east of
the city. The hills in the rear were
not fortified and afforded full cover
for the assaulting forces.

A Gratutious Protest.

A Philadelphia commercial traveller,
who was stranded in a Georgia village,
sat on the porch of the small inn, pa
tiently awaiting the announcement of
dinner. At noon, says the Philadelphia
Press, a darby appeared at the door
and rang a big hand bell.
Immediately the coon dog, which
had been asleep in the sunshine.
awOke, raised his nose toward the sky
and howled loud and dolorously.
The darby stopped ringing the bell
and scowled at the dog.
"Yo' shet upP' he shouted. "Yo'

THANKSGIVING DAY
Will be harhsd by General su,psn-
 sion of Business as Usual.

Tomorrow will be Thanksgiving day and so far as can be learned Wa tefbury never was better prepared to spend the day in pleasant manner. Work in the factories is good, there is very little serious sickness in the community, the prices of commodities are not so high but people of modest means can provide sufficient things to make family, happy, so that really there Is no reason which the ordinary observer can detect why every home in Waterbury should not be bright and cheerful tomorrow While very little is heard regarding the poor, 1t is needless to say that they are with us and that people who have little to spare and disposition to give will not have to do much hunting around to find fellow beings worthy of a help ing hand.
 The different business houses about town will close at noon; the banking houses, the public and private schools, the Bronson library, the factories and the offices in City hall will be closed all day, with the exception of the town clerks. which will do business in Che forenoon.

Heart disease caused the death of Edson Davidge Royal, young physi- clan of Willimantic, in Lebanon yes terday. He was 81 years old and a graduate of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York.
 Fire last night destroyed the big silk mill of B. W. Turner & Co at Turner vile and caused loss of about $10,- 900. Expensive new machinery had just been put in and also new sr- zine, but aside from a few buneles of raw silk nothing was saved.
 Charles Fitzpatrick, the woodchop- per who was struck by trolley car near the axle works in Mount Carmel, Sunday night, and who was taken co the New Haven hospital suffering from a fracture of the skull over the right ear, died at that institution about e:30 o'clock last night from his injuries.
 Isaac Dusky of New Haven was found in semi i-conscious condition on Crown street about midnight and taken to police headquarters, where he was booked for drunkenness. At 1855 as the doorman was making ais round he discovered that Dusky was dead Examination by Medical Exam- finer Bartlett, who was summoned, re- vealed cut on the back of the dead mans head. Whether he received this in falling fin the lookup or whether he was struck by one of the two other prisoners is not known. The cut was not noticed when the man was book ed. although police officials say 1t might have been there. The fellow prisoners of the dead man will be held pending the coroner's investigation.
