THE BIG rREB ON R1MMoN HILL.

The big chestnut tree on Rimmon Hill, near the residence of Albert Car rington, has been an object of interest for more than half q century. In Beers atlas of New Haven county published in 1868, it is shown on the map of Oxford. in which Rimmon Hill was then included, Beacon Falls not having been incorporated until 1871. On this map it Is shown as "The Large Old Chestnut"
 A writer in 1902 referred to 1t as "One of the oldest trees in Seymour" not be- ing aware that it was about half a mile north of the town line In 1895 it was said to be % feet and seven inches in circumference and to have in- creased three feet in thirty years. A paragraph in the Waterbury Republic an is as follows:
 There stands on Rlmmon Hill in Beacon Falls a chestnut tree 27 feet 10 inches in circumference, estimated to joe 250 years of age. It measures that eight feet from the ground.
 This would make the increase two feet and three inches in nine years. It is certainly quite a curiosity and it is quite likely that it was big tree when the last of the Indians of Chuse- town hunted in its vicinity.
 As the probable age of the tree is one of it's most interesting features we figure as follows. Reducing the cir cumference to diameters, emitting fractions, the figures in 1895 would have been feet in, and the alleged increase of three feet in circumfer- ence in thirty years, equal to about one foot in diameter, would make the total age 255 years. Adding from 1895 t5 date would make 266 years.
 Taking the growth of chestnut trees as given in Bulletin 154, Sept, 'O6) of the Conn. Agricultural Experiment Station, plate and note, which is evil dently accurate, the growth in 34 years was 8 1-2 inches. This propor- ton applied to the size of Rimmon | Hill tree as now reported, 27 feet, 10 in circular about feet inches in diameter would make its age about 450 years The probable slower growth in such a location might make it even more.

BoYcoTr ON THE BUTCHER.

Down on the lower east side of town, where the tradesmen have to open up eggs with oysters knives to prove that the goods contain no cotton the wo- men patrons of the little butcher shops went on strike yesterday be- cause the butchers had put up the price of meat two cents pound, tell ing their customers that 1t was be- cause the beef trust again raised prices to the butchers.
 Mrs. Esther Dollorofsky started out. She appointed herself walking dele gate of new. Butcher Customers Protective association, and going to every other tenant in the house at 402 East Fourth street began to get new recruits for her union. In half an hour every woman in the block had agreed to boycott the butcher The fish peddlers in the pushcart market beneath the Williamsburg bridge soon heard of the strike, and vowed they would assist the poor women of the cast side by selling them all the fish they wanted for the next six months. Tn fact, the walking delegate of the Fish Peddlers' union said he would go over to Fourth street and assist.
 He did The result was that by noon the strikers numbered more than 2OO0 They went from one butcher shop to another making inflammator yspeeches, begging folk not to patronize the butchers would agree to reduce the price of meat, and practically bottled up the meat trade.-New York Times.

NEW HAVEN HAD 5,OS5.
Population of State Over 25O Years
 Ago

Population of State Over 250 Years
 Ago,
 In 1756 the population of Connecticut was 190612. In 1860 it was 46O147. In 1900 it was 9oS,42O, says the Middletown Penny Press.
 In 1756 Middletown was the largest town in the state. It had then z664 in- habitants. Hartford at that time had only S,O27 and New Haven 5OS5, and New London only 31T. In 1900 Hart ford had 5,847, New Haven 5,157, New London 5,17O, and Middletown 5.0O1. They were all about on par with each other then. But after 1SOl Hartford and New Haven drew ahead and Mid dletown dropped towards the 2OOO. In 1756 Waterbury was just a village of 1929 souls. In 1900 it had 3,25S. It has grown some since then, having in 1900 51 ,139 inhabitants.
 Norwich was quite a town in 1756. having 5,54O residents, being larger than New Haven, going to 1895 in 179O, but in 1900 it had only BAYS. But after that it took a start. Saybrook in 1758 had 1 ,9S1 persons living in it. In 1900 1t had 3,36S, in 1900 1884. Stonington in 1756 had S,51S inhabitants; in 1880 S.4S7. Killingty in 1756 could count off 1.45S residents in 1900 2,O47; in 1900 only 651. Hartland, however, has done we'll. From twelve people in 1756 it had in 1900 592, all told. Lebanon, however, has not kept up with the times. From 3.274 persons in 1756 it has dropped to 1,521 in 19O0 Lyme also hasn't grown very much, for in 1756 it had 2,956 and in 1900 only 75O inhabitants.
 Tn 1900 the population of fhe state was 9OS,42O and now it is estimated at over a million.

HAT 1N HOUSE. oF COMMONS.

A member may wear his hat in the house so long as he is sitting but the moment he rises he must uncover, and of course, no one remains covered when he addresses the chair. But here is one of those paradoxes that make the house always So delightfully."- inter- esting and it's rules so unlike those of any other legislative body. When the house is dividing and a member de- sires to raise a point of order, the rules require that he must "speak sit ing and covered"
 On one occasion Mir Gladstone raised point of order, and for the moment forgot the rule. No sooner did he begin to speak than the house shouted at him, "Hat! hat!" Every cabinet member has a private room where he leaves his hat, and MT. Glad stone, as usual entered the house hat less, and so had all the other ministers around him. There was frantic search for a hat, much to the malici- ous delight of the opposition, and finally a hat was snatched up and Mir Gladstone put it on his head. But Mr Gladstone's head was the largest in the house and the hat belonged to a member with very small head, and it perched on his head like vaudeville artists ''tile'
 Gladstone was always man of tremendous energysin speaking and as he spoke the little hat wabbled all over his crown and was in danger of
