An interesting report on small arms practice in the navy has been made public by that department. It is shown that during the season Of 1907 remarkable progress was made. The average points per man was prac- tically double that of last year and the percentage attaining high classi- fication has advanced enormously. The interest taken in the firing by officers and men was a potent influ- ence and was noticeable in short range firing and at the longer ranges, particularly in team competitions This interest" says the report, was largely enhanced by the pres ence in the fleet of officers and men who had been with the navy rifle team during last years match. This influence has been of such value to the service, and the presence and creditable showing of the navy team at this meet, where teams from near Iy every state h the Union are as- sembled, has so furthered the inter ests of the navy among the people at large that it is to be hoped that the policy of sending team to the national competition may be cont!n- ued indefinitely"

Among women themselves, un- doubtedly the greatest factor in fur ther enfranchisement is the working woman, says d magazine writer. To her the ballot is bread. The astonish- ing statement of the last census that out of 23,4S5,559 women in the United States over 16 years of age, 4,S33,630 are breadwinners, sug- gests the increasing industrial com petition with men, which can never savor of the square deal unless safeguarded by the ballot. In Eng land, where tn 'suffragettes" have made their demands in most revolu- tionary spirit. S2 per cent of its wo- men are workers. and. actually, ay- craze only IS 6d in wages as against 29s paid to men Opposed to the cry of the woman who tolls is the anti suffragist Usually she belongs to the idle rich and has more rights" than the Lord ever intended. William T. Stead, the English journalist. recent. ly related a story about his visit to the king of Denmark which illus trates the egotistical viewpoint of the anti" The king expressed him self as favoriug wOman's suffrage. whereupon the queen demurred. But. my dear. you have everything the suffragists arc fighting for" re- piled the king reprovinsly.

Montrlaii \. l.. Dec. 6.-Physicians and psychcf- sists are greatly interest. ed in the s.range case of Edward Shea. well known young man of this town. who has been in q trance for ten days.
 For two days Shea remained uncon- sciOus. Tbsn he awoke and told a strange tale about going to heaven and meeting his mother. who died a year ago. Shea said his mother had spoken of her great happiness and sent messages to various members of the family which he delivered fn ThraSeOloEy that. all recognized ss typical of the mother.

WATERBURY DEMOCRAT FRIDAY DECEMBER G. 1902
HEARD IN PASSING.

Secretary Taft was toasted as the
 next president of the United States
 and responded in behalf of whoever
 might be selected" He must have
 been particularly jolly when he got
 along down the list and imagined
 himself speaking in behalf of old
 Joe Foraker.-Chicago Post.
 Now here's a girl expelled from
 the Meriden high school because she joined the Alpha Alpha Sorority. To
 the general reader this might seem
 a just disposition of her case. How
 ever, her father will worry the
 courts with it, so no one else needs |. to worry.-New Haven Palladium.
 The young woman in St Louis who
 has been caught stealing jewels says i that she has dual personality, and seems to think that an excuse, but the popular opinion will probably be that at least one of the personalities | ought to have been spanked more when she was young.-Meriden Jour- anl.
 Carrie Nation is reported in sack cloth and ashes over the develop ment of the prohibition movement. With the "drys" winning everything everywhere, there will sooI be no sa- looms for her to smash, and. she will be compelled to wall like Othello over the loss of occupation.--Wo- mans National Daily.
 Bishop Henry C.. Potter of New York is accused of swallowing a whole cocktail in Japan. Our na- tional cocktail offenders now are the bishop and the president, who drank the evil things, and Vice-President Fairbanks, who looked on in ghastly but helpless horror while they were dispensed at his board.-Pawtucket, R. l., Times.
 Where does more pay" for army officers come from? Is it picked up in the road? No. It must come out with the sweat of the man who feeds us all. Who mas proposed to in crease the pay of the man who has taxes to pay? Nobody. Instead of making his reward greater, the ten dency of the times is to strike him | for more and more, for any little balance he has been permitted to l keep. It Is about time for the tax payers of the country to organize in i elf-defense.-Dallas News.
 So great has become the rush of | aliens from this country that the | steamship lines have decided to make another big increase l in the east bound steerage rate and check the stampede so that they may adequately handle the traffic. An in- crease from $2I to $31 for the steerage passage was put inSo effect a week ago, but 1t seemed only to add to the rush instead of checking it, and now it is proposed to raise the rates to an almost prohibitive Haven Union.

Topeka. Kan, Dec. 6.-The jury in the case of the state against the In- ternatiOnal Harvester company reach ed a verdict against the company on fOrty-two counts. This verdict charges the concern with being a trust and en- tering Into an unlawful combination to control the price of harvesting ma. chinery and to force dealers to handle its products exclusively. The maxi. mum penalty which may he imposed is
 $1,00O on each count.

Shea has since awakened to a semi. conscious state he said he had again been to heaven and there encountered Luke Farrell, a man who was killed at the Lackawanna railroad station in Montclair a few months ago.
 Dr. Wrensch and Dr. J. S. Brown, both eminent practitioners, who made a careful study of the strange case, were unable to ascertain any cause for the trance. and all their remedies had no effect on Shea's somnoence.

New York. Dec. 6.-At special meeting of the Theatrical Managers association here it was decided that all theaters would remain closed on Sun day next and that no test case of Jus tice O'Gorman's construction of the Sabbath entertainment law will be made.

FRIDAY, DEC 6, 1907.

The United States Steel corpora ton is good trust, so-called. It has all the good qualities of Shylock. When it gets others into it's power it insists on all that is nominated in the bond" It demands the pound of flesh next to the heart. :" It has just served notice on all those who have set about to cancel order s for iron and steel that such Cancella- tiOns will not be allowed. This means ruin to many embarrassed corporations, firms and individuals; Lut we are told Ey the Steel Trust literary bureau that ''it has created much satisfactory comment in busi- ness circles"

THE FIELD AGAINST TAFT.
Administration Said to Be No Longer
 Sure of National Committee.

Administration Said to Be No Longer Sure of National Committee.
 Washington, Dec. 6.-The New York Press asserts that "reactionary influ- ences" assert themselves to such an extent that administration leaders are in doubt as to whether they have a majority on which they can depend for any part of their programme in the Re- publican national committee meeting here today and tomorrow. After initl- ating vigorous contest in favor of Chicago as against the Roosevelt-Taft selection of Kansas City for the con- vention tbe antiadministration forces got busy.
 One of the most important confer ences was held In the rooms of Senator Charles Dick of Ohio. Senator Fora ker's colleague and political partner. It included every United States senator who is a member of the national com mittee and others representing their states. numbering about dozen. These included Crane of Massachusetts. Kean of New Jersey for Franklin Murphy. Penrose of Pennsylvania. Heyburn of Idaho. Scott of West Virginia and Dick of Ohio.
 It was learned on good authority that the whole Republican situation WIS discussed and the determination ex- pressed 10 make every effort to prevent either President Roosevelt or any can dldate such as Secretary Taft. whom he might father for the presidency, from belpg nominated. While no per sonal choice was agreed on. Knox and Foraker both were regarded as the type of men who should be brought to the front.
 Harry .. New, chairman of the na- tiOnal committee. said:
 Chicago has shown the utmost in- difference tn connection with getting the next convention. Kansas City claims to save thirty votes pledged. and there are only fifty-fOur votes ,n all"

The Mnicstic-~Hn1eI Kirke."

Yesterday afternoon the admirers Of the
Majestic Stock Company were present in
force to witness the initial performance
Of the much-heralded production Of "Ha-
eel kirke." -Four acts OF so intense A
drama are enough 10 try the talents Of
the most capable OF players, and follow
ing as they did many weIl-known artists
IN their roles, much credit IS due their
efforts. While the piece is somber and
has little comedy TO tighten the shadows
of its story. all ends well before the final
curtain, and the audience IS dismissed
most happily content with life in general
1t may not be said that Miss Purneu was
seen to best advantage In the title role
but her work was sincere. or the sup
porting company, possibly Mr.. Murphy
received the most attention from the
audience. due 10 the combination OF a
clever role. and his own excellent work
afr. Stanley James added another we'll
drawn character 10 his already sto, ked
gallery. and Arthur Pickens was really
seen in thoroughly likable character.
However, this erstwhile accomplished VII
lain seemed quite at home in his new
surroundings. and made hts hearers for
give all his past misdeeds by the wealth
Of goodness which he read into the part
Of Rodney. Mr.. Munnel made the most
Of the rather small possibilities OF his
character. while Miss Hyle was as at
tractive as ever as Dolly. The scenic fea-
lures were adequate
