MELLEN,s DENIAL.
Sweeping Disclaimer Concerning Rela-

 tions Toward Boston and Maine.
 Boston, May 16.-Presldent Charles s. Mellen of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad issued the fol- lowing statement to-day;
 "Mr. Mellen in an interview stated that he was excessively annoyed by the numerous newspaper statements direct ly and indirectly purporting to come frcm him and takes this occasion to say:
 "Ie has given no statement regard ing the relations of his company to the Boston and Maine to any one, nor has he discussed MT. Tuttle's connec- ton with the rumored combination. Neither has he made any plans in view of the proposed rumors.
 He has had no negotiations looking to the control of the Boston and Wor- cester.
 He has no negotiations in progress with MT. Morse nor any agreement re- garding rates or service. He does not kEow whether MT, Morse Is to start his passenger boats between New York and Boston ar not; he would be glad of reliable information upon this sub iect ~- Nas
 He has not called upon MT. Tuttle- not because he would not like to, but because there is no business that calls for it and he is not here for social en- agreements.
 "The companies with which he is con nected have no stock ownership in the Boston and Maine and there Is no oc- casion for him to interest himself in that companys affairs and he has not done so and hopes there will be no oc- casion for him to do so.
 There is little sentiment in connec- ton with business and he is not con- sumed with a desire to dominate the Boston and Maine affairs because of his former connection with the proper ty. He has ample business with which to occupy his time and seeks only to be allowed to handle that with as little advertising as may be found neces- sary'

KOSHER SLAUGHTER HOUSE.
No Ments May Be Received Thcrefrom
 After June IS.

Health Officer Wright has forbidden the receipt in this city after June IS of any meat from the Allingtown kosher beef slaughter house. The action is the result of investigation made by the Board of Health,
 The health officer made a sudden vis- it to the house few days ago and finding that it had fallen into the same unsanitary state as when a general cleaning up was enforced last summer, he denounced 1t to the board and stated that in his estimation nothing slaughtered, drssed or stored there should be alloN9d to find, it's way to this city The bard voted unanimous ly to put a bh on the place after June IS. Innst!uch as the slaughter house is run by local kosher butchers for the express purpose of supplying kosher beef to lhey Hebrew quarters this order amouts to little short of condemning the lace

THE BLACK HUssAR.
Successful Presentation By West Ha-
 venerA at New Haven Thsater

The patrons of the New Haven thea ter had another opportunity last nisht of seeing the second amateur perform ance presented there within wealr The Black Hussar' was the attraction this time The audience was unusually large for an amateur production. ana was very apDreciative.
 Hackenbach is the magistrate of 4 town which seems to possess the incon- Venlent faculty of having two enemies. The question Is, whom are they to sida With? Hackenbach doesn't know. so he has reversible poster. On one side IS the picture of Napoleon. on the o+har IS the picture of Russian general PlfkoW is Hackenbach's clerk. Hack. enbach has two daughters, charming and sweet. He compels them, however. to limp and wear crutches though they have no physical ailments The chief character in the plot is Helbert He is an insurgent, an insurrection maker, and the French seek him Thav present Hackenbach with the warran n+ and offer him the legion of honor if K secures Helbert. This scene takes ,,laoa in the presence of Helbert, disguised ar an army chaplain With the promise that he is to be quartered in Hacken- nach's house. Helbert agrees to give a description of the man they are lookins for The description fits Hackenbacb to a and later causes Hackenhach,s arrest by the French.
 The part of Helbert is taken bv George A. Lawton. On the whole. his acting is lifeless; there is no charactetr- lzatlon. A little more vitality and less monasticism would fill the bill. The best individual amateur performer. not to give too much credit, if you will IS Joseph Southerton, who takes the part of Piffkow. Mifflin, taken by Rob- ert Bush, comes in just at the right time, when the audience is somewhat wearied with the monotony that has preceded.
 Among the songs that deserve snec- ial mention is the one in which Hel- bert gives his description of the in- surgent Helbert, which is he himself before Hackenbach and Piffkow Then there is another at the end of the first act in which Helbert and Walderrnan make love to the magistrates two daughters, Nina and Rosetta. But the song that tickled the audience was tha Kiss" as sung by Miss Kennedy and George IA. Lawton. It was the only one that called for an encore. Esther Nell son, Edwin A. Smith (Hackenbach), and Joseph southerton had pretty little song called Read the Answer in the Stars

 "Why, Dr. -, what do you mean?" asked the family doctor mildly. T have always found Mrs. Jones lady in every way"
 Perhaps" answered the specialist surgeon, more calmly, but with dry severity. "She asked me why sur geon was like hen. And when gave it up, what do you think she saidT 'I give it up, too," said the family doctor.
 Because his motto is always Cut cut-cut ah, cut Wasn't that the limit?"

----------------- ----+------------- THE MILK BERLIN DRINKS.
How the Government Safeguards Its
 WboIesomeness.


 It would be good thing if the san itary officials of Washington and oth- CT cities of the United States would study the system of pasteurizing milk in Berlin. There are several very large plants in that city alongside the railroad tracks so that cans from the milk trains can be transferred direct ly from the cars without delay. The milk is pasteurized in bulk and dump ed immediately into the yats upon ar- rival. It is kept at a temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, for twenty minutes and then cooled by running over ice cold stone slabs After it is thoroughly cooled 1t is bottled and handed over to the delivery wagons. The increase in price because of pas- teurization is nominal, and although there is no law requiring milk to be pasteurized milk and will not buy any other except that which comes from a few fancy dairy farms that are kept under strict surveillance and make a point of charging twice as much as the ordinary price. Several dairy farms near Berlin keep regular inspec- tors licensed by the municipal au- thorities, who furnish certificates of the purity of their product.
 This fancy milk, however, insig- nificant in quantity and Is served only at the expensive hotels and to the rich families. Practically none but pasteur- ized milk is used in Berlin and other German cities, because the masses are thoroughly educated and will buy no other. The result appears in. very large reduction in the infant death rate since the present system was adopted.
 The dairy business in Berlin and other German cities is handled chiefly by women, from the milking of the cows to the delivery of the bottled milk. Very few men are employed in dairies. They are under the constant surveillance of veterinary surgeons and other inspectors who go from farm to farm. examining the cows, the san itary conditions of the stables and the manner in which the milk is handled If diseased animal is found the en- tire farm is quarantined and com- pelled to suspend business until it re- ceives a clean bill of health. In the city the chief chemist and his assist ants are kept busy making tests. They are likely to appear any morning at the railway stations or the pasteuriz- ation stations or the milkshops to ob- tain samples, which are chemically ex- amined at once, and if any impurities appear the fact is reported by tele- phone to the police. German laws and regulations would be- considered de- spotic by the people of the United States and would not be tolerated any where in this country but they are the most effective for the public well fare that can be found in any country in the world.-Chicago Revord Herald.

~ Critic'S Comparison OF the Modern

One Of the strangest things about

23# Il have books on my, shelves printed
and bound by presumably reputable
firms, and yet after six or eight years
of careful use the paper is coming to,
pieces and the bindings are gone, while
side by side with them are books 300
years old with paper intact and the
bindings as good as new The differ

terial and work. In the old days q
hide was allowed to lie in the tan

rare, also the costly, exceptions. 1t is
true that the high temperatures Of the
houses, the gases and coal fumes may
have something to do with impairing
leather bindings, for, as everybody
knows, a stout cloth or canvas binding
is better than the leather now used.
