INCREASE MEETS OPPOSITION.
Special Aldernanic Committee Holds
 Up Alderman Healy's Bill.

Special Aldermanic Committee Holds Up Alderman Healy's Bill. The special committee appointed at the June meeting of the board of alder men to investigate and report on the petition of Alderman-at-L Large Richard B. Healy for an Increase of the pay of city laborers from $1.75 to $2 a day held an executive session in city hall yester- day afternoon. In spite of the great amount of material brought in by AL derman Healy to show that New Haven Is paying her city laborers less than any city of her size the committee was decidedly opposed to any increase.
 The session lasted for an hour and a half, and the question was thoroughly gone over. Alderman Healy told the committee that he had written to New York. Hartford, Worcester and Spring field, and that these cities paid their Ilaborers at least $2 per day. In New York the pay is $15 per week. In Hart ford it is $2 per day. New Haven, he thought, should not be behind these cities.
 The contention of the majority of the committee is that help can be secured in the market for city jobs whenever it is needed at the present price. They also contend that the city is paying enough when corporations can secure all the help they want at the present prices. It would only increase the city payrolls.
 In reply Alderman Hea1y spoke of the increase in the price of commodities and said that the money would all come back into the hands of the taxpayers by an increase in the amount of pur- chases made.
 The committee decided to give a pub lie hearing some time next month be- fore reporting the petition to the board of aldermen. It will not, therefore, come up at the next meeting of the board of aldermen. The members of the committee are W. Perry Curtiss, chairman; Aldermen Healy, Nathanson, Homan and Langley.

HAS NO JURISDICTION.
Ordinance Committee Finds it Cannot
 Regulate Height of Blllboards.

Regulate Height of Billboards.
 The aldermanic committee on ordi- nances ran up against snag at it's meeting held in city hall last evening, which was public hearng on a pro- posed ordinance limiting the height of binboards, when the members decided that they were given no authority by the city charter to pass such an ordi- nance
 James Macdonald, of 69 Gamer street, appeared before the board in fa- vor of regulating the height of boards. He spoke in particular of billboard at the corner of Orange and Gamer streets, and designated it as a common nuisance. He said that it had blown down several times during the past year.
 James E. Wheeler, of the New Haven Bill-Posting company, was present to oppose the bill He stated that the company was always ready to look into complaints such as that mentioned by Mir MaeDonald and obviate them if possible. Aesthetic reasons, he said, such as were sometimes offered were not sufficient grounds on which to in- terfere with the bill~posting business. He even questioned the power of the aldermen under the city charter to make any such regulation without the consent of the legislature at Hartford.
 After a consideration of this argu- ment the committee decided that it had no jurisdiction in the matter.
 The committee received a petition from Corporation Counsel Leonard M. Daggett which, he said, was framed at the request of Mrs, Henry Wade Rog-' CTS. The petition provides that metal ash can, with cover, for the reception of garbage shall be maintained in con- nection with every tenement house by the owner thereof. A fine of $5 for every day of neglect, after notification of such neglect by an inspector, is pro- vided in the petition.

sudden quiet, hung high in air; the sagebush all around rustled with pun gent dryness and to the west the sky burned hard and bright as burn ished copper.
 For long time he waited. Then, with sobbing breath, he flung round, straining his body against the cords which held him.
 The snake, too, had moved. The thong that bound it was drawn taut. and painfully it had burst it's sWol- len head across his fingers. It lay thus, outstretched not striking, it's glazing eyes on the mans face And while they lay so suddenly there came to pass the impossible the one uncounted chance. From far across the desolate sagebrush desert sound- ed to them the barking of a dog. It came near and with it the creak and grinding of heavy wheels. The man strove to cry out and, fail- | ing, gnaWed desperately at his baked lips and tongue. When the feeble trickle of blood which paid his efforts had moistened his dry throat, he raised his voice in shrill and terrible cries. Above him at the sound the startled birds swirled to the west. The snake, too weak to spring, had yet dragged himself to a coil, his fiat head raised in air. Between his cries the man could hear the abrupt stopping of the wa gon, the confused exclamation of mems voices. Next instant the dogs moist breath whitfield on his forehead ! and a mans face bent to his own There was a sudden tightening of the buckskin thongs as knife passed beneath them, its cool blade soaring like fire on the blistered flesh. Hands dragged him from his place. A man on either side he was held erect. Through a maze of pain and weakness he could hear the comment of his res curers.
 Alive, all right!"
 Hell die on our hands"
 Garry him to the wagon!"
 Look outl Step wide of the rat tler!"
 Hands beneath his shoulders they bent to the task of lifting him.
 The sufferer sent of groping hand in protest He swallowed hard, struggling to speak, His naked foot thrust close-perilously close-to the fanged snake.

COLLEGE MEN AND POCKET
 MONEY

President Hadley, of Yale university, contributes to Harper's for August an interesting view of the question, now a matter of serious thought to parents, as to whether it is wise for college men to be liberally supplied with money. He explains the strain of poverty as well as of wealth upon the morale of men in colleges, and draws the conclusion that it is about equal, all things eonsid- cred.

VIII Not Offset the III Effects of Coffee

IA farmer says:
 Tt was not from liquor or tobacco that for ten years or more I suffered from dyspepsia and stomach trouble, they were caused by the use of coffee until got so bad I had to give up cof- fee entirely and almost give up eating. there were times when I could eat only boiled milk and bread and when went to the field to work had to take some bread and butter along to give me strength.
 T doctored with doctors and took al- most everything I could get for my stomach in the way of medicine but if I got any better it only lasted little while until was almost walking skeleton.
 Ion day I read an ad for Postum and told my wife I would try It. and as to the following facts I will make affi- davit before any judge:
 quit coffee entirely and used Pos tum in it's place. I have regained my health entirely and can eat anything that is cooked to eat, I have increased in weight until now I weigh more than I ever did; I have not taken any medi- cine for my stomach since l began us- ing Postuf. Why, I believe Postum will almost digest an iron wedge,
 My family would stick to coffee at first but they saw the effects at had on me and when they were feeling bad they began to use Postum, one at a time, until now we all use Postum. Name given by Postum oC., Battle Greek, Mich.
