across the water and brought back, there Is no tariff. A jObber ID watches bought three consignments at $1,000 a consignment and upon receiving the first one had It m mediately shipped to Germany whence 1t was shipped back again. The trip across gave them g flavor or l 8 foreign product and the joDDer sold the watches far below the mar ket price, and incidentally all the watch dealers in New York state went half mad with anger. They wondered where the jobber got the watches and he knew too much to l give away his money making secret. He had great success with the first and more with the second, but ne ran against snag the moment the third consignment arrived here on its re- turn from Germany. By that time the trade had ascertained how he managed the trick and the custom officials in New York refused to per- init the consignment of watches to land unless the usual tariff was paid. This the jobber refused to pay and the matter went to the courts and in due time decision was given in favor of the jobber. Since then 1t has developed that many watch manufacturers have done the same thing as the jobber, only that they went him one better. They put foreign dial on the watch and sell it as foreign product at price much higher than the home product would command. Thus the man who made the watch is done out of his rights.
 The New Haven Union makes the statement that every ward chairman and every deputy registrar in the re- publican party in New Haven has had his name filed with the state secretary as political agent. This was done" adds the Union, so as to allow these men to handle funds legally in this city" The Union continues: "It is said that Chairman Kenealy of the republican state com mittee has made special effort to see that all town cnairmen in the state filed their names so as not to be amenable to the new law. The fact that the republicans in New Ha- ven have filed so many names indi- cates that they do not intend to get caught. The democrats, 1t is stated, are lax in this respect"

THE DRAPER LETTERS.
Dean swift's Rattle For the Rishts
 sf Ireland.

Dean swift's Battle For the Rishts
 ef Ireland.
 The Drapler letters, six of which. signed "M. B. Drapier." appeared in . Dublin newspaper in 1124, mark an era In Irish history. They were the work of Dean Swift. the author of "Gulli- ver's Travels" The occasion calling them forth was the grant of . patent in 1723 to William Wood, an English. man of Birmingham, to coin halfpence and farthings to the extent of f106. 1000 to be current in Ireland. where there was . deficiency of copper coinage. Public feeling in Ireland was in a state of irritation at its treatment by Eng. land. and Swift took advantage of this coinage business to advocate the rights of Ireland. Under the mask of a plain. honest. patriotic tradesman he coun- seled all true patriots not only to re- fuse to take the new coinage. but to refrain from using any English man. ufactures whatever. The result was tremendous. No one would take Woods  money. and associations were formed for refusing the currency. The publica- ton of the first three letters had so reused. the temper of Ireland that it was now easy for Swift to come to the real point of issue. In the fourth let ter he accordingly treats of the royal prerogative. The government instantly took alarm and offered a reward of BOO for the discovery Of the author of ihis fourth letter. Its printer was thrown Into prison But all was in vain The government yielded to the storm Woods patent was surrender ed. the patentoe being iademni5ed by grant of f3co yearly for twelve years Thus. through the force and an imstio1 of Svift's arguments. victo- riously terminated the first grand struggle for the independence of Ire I1nd.-Loni0n TIt-Blts.

At Friendly League.

So now we're at the Friendly league.
 A fair-sized lump of leaven
 To find what good things are to coma
 For nineteen six and seven. We'll tell our friends what fun we
 have;
 We'll tell them of the classes, And soon they, too. will want to
 come
 And join these ranks of lasses For Halloween we sing, for Hallov.
 cen.
 From Woodsy Sewers For Hallow-
 cen"
 So sang the Friendly league chorus to the tune of "Auld LAX Syne" last evening in the Friendly sague hall. The tune was well chosen\or certain time-honored customs are never omitted on Halloween. The ghosts were there, but not the same ghosts. for this year they sang as we'll d marched, and proved that voices arc equal to feet. On the stage was the gypsy camp and the gypsy was there with her wonderful wheel of fortune at which marvellous discoveries .were made. Another innovation this year was the weighing machine. the va- rious combinations of odd or even numbers deciding the events of tho coming. year. The initial pumpkin was there, the candles, the clear and cloudy water and many another good old fortune teller. The hall was most charmingly decorated and the weird light of the jack-o'-lanterns added to the mysterious effect. Ono especial enjoyment was that Mia Helene c. Futile, the director of the class in elocution. was present and rendered the monologue. "Mrs Ge- rard Orders Her First Dinner" and other recitations. Mrs Wilhelmlns w. Calvert, the director of tho Friendly league chorus. also charmed her listeners by her rendering of the two solos. "The Lass With . Delicato Air" and Call Me Back" The Friendly league chorus has . rspu- tation to keep up which it bids fair to do and is already planning for an entertainment in which the elocu- tion class will join. Dancing fols lowed refreshments and all started for home thoroughly happy. The used for decorations were the gift of one of the msmbers and are for sale and the proceeds will co to the Friendly league fund used for the benefit of those who are sick,
