An Illustration N Steel.
The Kansas City Star. a brilliant In
dependent paper, under the above cap
ton says editorialiy:
Pittsburg bridge steel costs an average
of aboGt 10 per cent more in the United
States than in Mexico. in spite of the
long freight haul involved in the exporta
ton.
This shows that steel can be manu-
featured at Pittsburg. shipped to Mexico
and sold there with profit at about so
per ton and is sold at about that figure
because in Mexico it comes in competition
with the native article.
Yet the same STEEL manufactured at the
same place. with an average Of shorter
hauls. is sold in this country at about $50
per ton. This is possible because the
tariff keeps out foreign competition and
the steel trust through an agreement with
all the companies in the steel business,
has eliminated domestic competition.
The consequent excess cost in the MAX
ing Of bridges. buildings and all articles
made of iron comes out of the people in
the long run.
The people have elected men to repre-
sent them in congress, and congress has
imposed this tax on the people. What do
the people have to show for it? Nothing
but some public libraries given by the
Dstenta tious hand Of Andrew Carnegie.

HEALTH AND BEATTY.

If you bath the neck every night in water into which a little pure benzion has been dropped then dry thoroughly and use good cream, you will find the roughness will be relieved. Here is a good cream for this purpose: Lanolin, two and one-half ounces; spermaceti, three-quarters of an ounce; white vase line, two andone-half ounces; cocoanut oil, two ounces; sweet almond oil, two ounces; tincture of benzion, half-dram Melt the first five ingredients together beat until the mass concrets, adding the benzion, drop by drop, during this process. Extract of violet or any per- fume may be added if agreeable.

Ii the room is cold fire can be kept burning all night. To have a fire go out in the early hours of the morning is to incur greater risk than if one is not lighted. It is in these early hours called in some old works the "hours of fate"-that the temperature of the air is at it's lowest. They are the death hours. The fire should be burning

Coroner Mix Says They Are Such in
 Name Only.
 In letter to Mayor Studley respond ing to a request to make an official in- vestigation into the death of Elsie M Foley, who was killed by trolley car No. 260 of the Consolidated Street Railway company on July 31 last, Coroner Mix gets in a hit at the lenders in use on the cars in this city. The coroner says in the letter that the lenders "are only lenders in name and not in fact" Fur ther on he says: Tt is in my judgment, worse than no fender at all, as believe person struck by a car with this wheel guard, in nine cases out of ten would be pinned between the fender and some portion of the car rather than thust to one side or picked up by it.
 General Manager Punderford speak ing in connection with the subject says that there is no perfect fender in the United States, but that this road has a fender that in his opinion is as nearly perfect as any of them.

RETURN OF SECOND REGIMENT.

LeESI OtlGN UT SECOND EtEGlMEIN I.
 The return of the Second Infantry, c. N. G., from Camp Roberts, Saturday afternoon was effected without any particular incident of moment and ex- cept for the slight drizzle that marked the home coming of the militiamen from their annual encampment the final days duty was marked by the same success which characterized the entire week in camp.
 The regimental camp was a complete success in the opinion of the officers. The absence of the other regiments, forming the Connecticut brigade gave the Second the full sweep of the Man tic rendezvous and their work was not han1pered in the least by lack of space In which to manoeuvre.
 The work was carried out by Colonel Sueher and his officers exactly as plan- ned without any hitch or break
 Captain Besse of Co. M, Torrington, was officer of the day Saturday, First Lieutenant Hine of Go. H, Middletown, was officer of the guard, and Second Lieutenant Manning of Go. c, New Ha- ven, supernumerary officer of the guard. Officers and men alike declare that the camp has been success and that the idea of encamping by regi- ments instead of as brigade is a good one Some of the officers consider that more instruction was gained this week than was the case even at Manassas. The work by companies in extended order was especially instructive.

H. G. ROWE APPOINTED.
MEMBER OF INTERSTATE COM
 MISSION

To Negotiate With New York State
 Commission Regarding Reciprocal
 Legislation on Fishery Matters.
 Our well known townsman, Henry c. Rowe, has just received 9 personal and official letter from Governor Roberts announcing that MT Rowe has been appointed by the governor a member of the commission on reciprocal state legislation on the fisheries matters. The object of the commission is to secure reciprocal legislation to the mutual rights that citizens of New York state on the one hand and citizens of Con- recticut on the other have to hold oys- ter grounds or to catch Holsters or fish in the waters of the other state. It is an interesting fact that oyster growers Of Connecticut have interests in one million dollars while New 4orK oyster growers are interested i'll Con necticut waters to a like amount. Ihere is also some technical questions about titles to oyster lands held by New York growers in Connecticut waters, and about such titles to similar lands held by Connecticut growers in New York waters. It is one purpose of the commission to secure such legislation as will be needed to validate defective titles.
 A tlll was passed by the legislature at the last session authorizing the gov- ernor to appoint an additional number to the commission in question, and the appointment of MT. Rowe followed.
 It is the general, and in fact unani- nous verdict that no better selection for the position could have been made owing to Mir. Rowe's prominence as one of the leading oyster growers of the world, and his thorough knowledge of the questions to come before the com mission and fitness to discuss them The commission as whole is a strong one, and will ably represent Connecti- cut. Attorney General King is a mem- ber of the commission; also eX-Senator Hamilton of New London, ex-chairman of the legislative committee on fisher ies together with tho members of the shell fish commission.

BUREAUCRACY RESPONSIBLE.
Civil War in Russia Shows That Autoc

|OlNlI w dt Ill IkuSSId oiAONo Hat <AulCS-
 racy Is Still Firm.
 That Nicholas II and his people no longer understand each other is now become distressingly clear in Russia, is indeed, one of the central facts of the situation there, says E. J. Dillon in the American Monthly Review of Re- views. And the practical consequences emanating from it are in sober truth alarming. Anarchy and violence have usurped the place of law and order; re- pect for property and for life has largely disappeared; class is turned against class, race against race, and civil war in it's worst aspects appears to have broken out in various districts
 Simultaneously. The mutiny of the battleship Kaniaz Potemkin, the revolt of the bluejackets in Libeau, the bar ricades in Lodz, with their hillocks of dead and dying, are symptoms which he who runs may read. The beginnings of this social avalanche can be traced to the deliberate action of mischief making government agents.
 The zemstvo delegates now intend it is said, respectfully to request his ma- jesty to convoke a representa- tive assembly within the next five Or six weeks, and if their request be not com piled with to form provisional boards of government for the provinces. That move would probably turn the scales
 by giving the liberals of all Russia a living center around which to rally. l The resolution in question is alleged to
 have been provoked by an attempt at further mobilization.
 That the autocracy is still ready to sacrifice Russian lives, sif not the con- troI of the Pacific, a least for partial victory over the Japanese, is an open secret. It is but few days since the official financial paper demonstrated to | it's own satisfaction that in a few months Japan will be Bankrupt. Why not carry on the war ffuiitil then? The nations answer is audible in the crack ing of rifles, the bursting of explosives, the din of civil war.
 The pity of it all is that the auto
 cracy, which is compromised, gibbeted
 and held up to universal opprobrium for upholding the regime by fomenting
 civil war, can win nothing by success,
 while it stands to lose all in case of
 failure. It is really risking its exis- tence for the bureaucracy.

 The man or woman suffering from nervousness should seek the compan- ionship of healthy persons, free from nervousness. The meals ought to be eaten very slowly. All ordinary hy- ginic rules are to be obeyed, Will exercises are good. The nervious per- son must, to use a figure of speech, spring out of the warm, nervous bed and plunge into the cold bath of ef- fort The thing he dreads doing in the very one he should do. One excellent plan for nervous men and women is to attend 8 good theatre and watch the demeanor of some self-possessed actor or actress. Let the study that de- meanor and try to initiate it. It will be something for them to do when at- tackled by nervous spell. It will be found better than buttoning or unbut- toning gloves or indulging in any other of the acts purposeless acts so common to the nervous.-Chicago News.
