MARK TWAIN IN BEDDING.

Plans are Completed for His Thirty
 Thousand Dollar Residence in the
 Glen.
 It is apparently an assured fact that Mark Twain, the dean of American humorists, is to be near neighbor to Danbury. MT. Clemens, for Clemens he is in private life, owns about two hundred acres of land in one of the most picturesque sections of Bedding Glen. He first bought the ninety acre farm belonging to the Noah Sherwood estate and later acquired an adjoining farm of more than one hundred acres from Albert and Arthur Hill, of New Haven.
 MT. Clemens has, it is said, practi- cally completed plans for a handsome residence to be erected upon the most slightly spot in his Bedding possessions and is about ready to begin the con- struction of thirty thousand dollar concrete building which is to be little less than a rural palace.
 The Bedding correspondent of the Bridgeport Farmer, writing of Mir. Clemens plans for building, says that it was expected that the construction of the house would have been com menced last fall, but the difficulties en- countered in securing a speedy execu- tion of the project caused a delay. Different architects submitted plans and Mr. Clemens and his two daugh- ters discussed and rejected them, not being able to come to decision as to precisely what they wanted. Recently a decision was reached and it is ex- pected that within a month the build- ing of the house will be begun.
 It is an interesting fact that the plans as finally accepted are the work of Architect John D. Towels, who is a son of William Dean HoWells, the fa- nous novelist, essayist and poet. The elder Mir. Howells and Mark Twain are nearly the same age, are close personal friends and both belong to the lyiterary staff associated with the Harper's pub lications. Architect Howells has planned structure forty by ninety three and one-half feet in dimensions.i The materials will be concrete, mould ed into form while soft around a frame work of steel wire, the latter forming a central core. The exterior walls art to be covered by stucco, forming a smooth and ornamental finish. The in- terior flnishings are to be of the best The house will be two stories in height and on the first floor will be a commo- dious apartment fitted up as a study for the use of Mir. Clemens.
 The house is to stand on knoll loca- ted about a third of a mile west of the old Noah Sherwood house. Extensive improvements in the way of beautify- ! ing the adjacent grounds and develop ing park wise, the tract extending southward towards the Glen are to bt made, but the details of these are mol fully determined. One feature settled upon, however, is the construction of 2 4 road about a mile long from the house grounds to the Saugatuck river. Int contract for building this road ha' been taken by Harry Lounsbury,

YIDpIsH PLAYERS FINALE.


 Mme. Lipzin Closes Local Season in the
 Strong Play, "uriel Acosta."
 Mime. K. Lipzin's Yiddish company Tuesday night at the Hyperion for the sixth time this season, its offer ing being "Uriel Aeosta," a classical tragedy in five acts, by the celebrated poet, Carl Guzkow. This was Mime. Lipzin's final appearance in New Ha- ven this season, and an unusual large house consequently attended the per- formance.. Edwin A. Relkin, the man. ager of the production, was fortunate enough to secure the services, by spe- cial arrangement, of Mir. David Kess- Ter, who is known as one of the most brilliant of all Yiddish actors. MT. Kessler appeared in the title role, a part which has been made famous in Germany and America by reason of the wonderful interpretation 1t has re- ceived from the two greatest of living artists, Sonnenthal and Keintze. Mr. Kessler's study of the part last night, however, not only vindicated his pre- vious reputation, but came not far short of the best work his great pre- decessors have done in the same role.
 Maurice Moshkowitz was seen in the character part of Dr. De Sylva, which he presented to perfection. The other roles were entrusted to the same conn petent support, whose names are al- ready familiar to patrons of the Yid- dish stage, and all of whom have been seen here at previous performances,
 The play of "Uriel Aeosta" is one of the very best of the Mime. Lipzin com panys repertoire, and made strong closeto their seasonal engagements at the Hyperion.

Do WE really need seven hundred new
rules of human conduct every two years?
If we do then it is apparent that our
forefathers were not able to penetrate
futurity as far as we thought. 1t is diff
ficult to make ones conduct comport
with all the new rules, many of which
are ambiguously worded But the task
must be undertaken and we must report
to the secretary Of the state or the bank
examiner every so often, and must sub
NIT to the examination of our clients
notes and our own accounts and be
taxed to help pay tho expense Of all this
intermeddling. The great number of
laws indicate man 'distrust of his fellow
man. They are contrary to Jetferson's
teachings that they are the best gov
erned who are the least governed. Their
enforcement entails great expense, and
their benefits latent, if indeed, they pro-
duce any benefits Is it not possible to
get along with fewer rules? If it is, the
next legislature should begin the work
of determination Instead of creation.
Twenty years ago political parties made
their own rules and changed them when
ever majority saw fit. Now we have
iron clad rules dealing with the minutest
things in voluntary political associations.
The enforcement of these rules costs the
state approximately hundred thousand
dollars every two years. Are the bene-
fits commensurate with the expenditure?
Have we gotten better, and more COM
petent public officials? No one will pre-
tend we have. Then why stick to these
expensive ?-Madisonian

Az announced in another column,
the successful Milwaukee specialist, DR..
Mahoney, will visit Edgerton on Mon
day, Sept. 9th, at the Carlton hotel. DIR.
Mahoney is progressive physician, who,
after an extensive practice of twelve
years, general and hospital, d acided to
give chronic sufferers in remote commu-
mites the benefit of his experience. The
experiment has proven great success,
the doctor being crowded for time at all
the towns which he visits, so great is the
crush of sick people anxious to consult
him. This will be the case at Edgerton
as soon as people hear about the un-
usual opportunity offered to get first
class medical advice right at home with
out the expense and fatigue incident to

Mr.. WILSON, the secretary of agri-
culture is one OF the optimists who not
only has rosy views Of the future, but
can give substantial reasons for having
them. Concerning the business outlook
he said recently; ''The West is pros
porous. There is plenty of money. In
fact, have reason to believe the West
is loaning money to the East instead OF
the East to the West and this is being
done at good rates Of interest The peo-
pie of the West are not worrying over
Wall street and it's troubles. They
scarcely know that such troubles exist.
The rest of the country is no longer de-
pendent on Wall street. The crop out
look is good. Grain crops generally will
be good, with the exception OF the oat
crop. There will be a good corn crop,
not good one, il frosts do not come too
early. Prices for farm products and for
stock are high, and the farmers are
making money"

FOR "THE UNION"
THE MAeI.
BY EDWIN HIGGINS.

The radiant stars illumed the sky.
And glory crowned the throne of night;
One brighter shOne than all that host,
Resplendent, pure and white.
o wondrous star, so long foretold
You led the adoring Magi's way;
They traced thy mystic splendor home,
And night was lost in perfect day.
Whenever we scan the nightly sky,
Each ieweled world each glowing gem,
Speak to our hearts in loving tones
OF the wondrous Star of Bethlehem.
No palace gate, no sentry stands
To guard the way the Magl trod
Starlit and clear as star could be
1t led the way that leads to God.
They stood before the manger-throne,
Before the Child on mothers breast;
A glorious light about Him shone
And glory shed DER all the rest.
Whenever we look on childhood's form,
So innocent and pure and fair;
The image of the Holy Child
In wondrous love is written there.
How rich the gifts the Magi give
When they the Saviour King behold;
Richer their gifts of heartfelt love,
Than Orient's wealth of balm and gold!
Where'er this story shall be told.
And tokens true of love be given,
Twill lift the yearning heart of man
And ope for him the gate of heaven.
The happy world its treasure pours -
1t riffs the clouds of wintry days.
Its arms with gifts, its heart with love
Their blessings bring ITO God the praise.

the greatest triumph for many years. Each
party had watchers at the polls determined to
