there have been periodic a ssassina- tions and internal and external up- heavals ever since. Each one of these smaller republics goes about with chip on it's shoulder most of the time, and when it's knocked off war follows. It would be violating an ancient and time honored custom not to fight if an opportunity to do this arose when the weather was not too hot, and as there hasn't been scrap in either Honduras or Nicaragua for some years they are beginning to feel the neeed of excite ment there.
 Have I been dn either country? Bless you, I've held public office In both for the space of a week or so. Anybody can get 8 political job down there If he has the initiation fee, but no outsider wants to mix up in politics unless he has farming implements or rifles to sell. Then, too, if he's in for the money he get outs of 1t he wants to have the cash in his hands when he delivers the goods, for if he doesn't, there may be a new President in office when he wakes up in the morning
 "The reported fight is not of much more importance than a strike in the States, and take my word for it, there won't be nearly as many people killed in it as there are in one of your bi- dents. Why? Because the present struggle won't last long enough for any serious casualties. In Honduras the natives are taking a great interest in agriculture, and the crops are promis- ing this season, so much in fact, that the government forces are sadly de- pleted Tobacco has been succcessful- ly marketed by them of late, and the craze for wealth is even becoming rife among the Sambo Mosquitoes and Car lbs, the latter numbering about S0,- 900. The natives are fairly intelligent, the Carlos speaking their own lan- guage, and Spanish and English also. These make a pretense sof embracing Catholicism, but are nearly all poly gamists, yet are a good natured lot, finely built and industrious, except where the Negro blood is interningled, and they live on good understanding with the white men. As in Nicaragua, they all hate the half-bred ladions, and it is against them that they are con- tlnually making war on a small but effective scale. In these fights there
 is usually blood spilled and lives are lost, but they begin quickly and end quickly. In my mind that will be the case with the present so-oalled war, ,,,,lnse t1,n oIt, ,tare 6,,d cnxyny.oJ a. tions are twitching for the prospects of war with almost as much interest as they are watching the outcome in the

Jen- kins of the Connecticut Agricultural station had a conference with Senator MoGovern of the committee on appro- priations this morning in refard to fix ing the date for hearing on the bill appropriating $10,o00 for extermination of the gypsy moth.

MENDEL & FREEDMAN.
ANNUAL SPRING OPENING TO.
 DAY AND TOMORROW.

Stores Beautifully Decorated-ExcIu-
 sive Showing of Stylish Garpents
 and Artistic MiIlinery-speciaI At-
 tractiOns and Prices in Every De-
 pertinent.
 At the popular stores of Mendel & Freedman spring opening in the vari- ous departments will be the feature of to-day and tomorrow. For years Men del 6 Freedman have been noted for their exclusive showing of everything that is new and stylish in cloaks and suits. Their millinery department has also earned a reputation second to none, And both of these departments, together with twenty more, will be ra- diant to-day in all the glory of spring. This firm not only manufactures many of Its own exclusive garments, but 1t also imports, from the Paris, London and New York centers, the very latest creations in millinery, suits and other novelties required for spring wear. The store has been artistically decorated with potted plants and flowers for the occasion, and the firm extends a hearty welcome to all to witness the display, whether they purchase or not.
 One of the very prettiest hats in the millinery room, and which Is bound to attract attention, is known as the American Beauty hat, and comes from the fashionable house of Brevette. et~ i, of 1oo lNaL ing made of two circles of the straw, through which run wide velvet ribbons in the American Beauty shading. A wreath of lovely roses form the trim ming, and on the bandeau in the back is an enormous bow of the velvet rib bons, with ends that fall to the shoul- der.
 The dainty soft pastel colorings which are so popular this year find expression through scores of beautiful gowns. The natty little Eton coats give the suits an air of style, and their trimming of Per- sian and Oriental bands give a femi- nine charm.
 The prices too, are so very reason able when the beauty and quality are considered. The foremost artists have been employed in designing the suits, and every line shows that style has been the keynote.
 New ideas one finds here. The suits are not all of one or two patterns. The variety is bewildering and the opening day visit has festival effect, in that you become acquainted with so many new and charming things.
 Silk and wash waists form very large and attractive display, and silk skirts in all the latest shades are to be found in abundance. Kimonos and wrappers of the firms own make are also seen in the suit department in va rious styles and colorings.
 Tn their large dress goods department Mendel & Freedman offer many choice and rare bargains for the opening days a description of which, together with the special prices, will be found in their advertisement.
 The lace and embroidery department will also offer special inducements for opening shoppers, and the glove depart ment will put forth values that have seldom been equalled. This wonderful display must be seen to be appreciated, and the ladies will undoubtedly visit this mecca of fashion in great crowds during the remainder of the week.

PoLI,s NEW THEATER.

The Military Octette is the headline feature at Polls theater, and is very pleasing. This unique feature, which is a spectacular musical number, was deserving of first place in the bill. The Girl With the Baton, Miss Mabel Keith, was a rather strenuous leader and kept her musicians in splendid time.
 Jack Lorimer, the Scotch bree3ed of smiles, Is here with the goods. His Sctoch custome and dialect as we'll as his original manner of singing his songs and springing some good comedy material made him stand prominent in the long bill.

 mission.
 Hartford, March 19.--The state board of railroad commissioners received a hard slap to-day when both branches of the general assembly passed a meas ture creating a legislative committee to investigate the railroad commission and it's conduct in not ordering abolished 8 grade trolley crossing between Hart ford and Wethersfield known as Fol lybrook' crossing
 The measure was presented by Rep resentative Fenn, of Wethersheld, who stated that the bill was drawn by the city attorney of Hartford. The com mittee will consist of two senators and seven representatives, who are to be appointed later.
 Although the business was regarded as new, it was voted in because of it's importance. The statement was made that the railroad board investigated the crossing upon its own volition, and 1t was expected that it would be ordered abolished.
 Last Wednesday, contrary to all ex- pectations, the railroad board decided In favor of the railroad and let the crossing alone. The decision is severe lily criticised about Wethersfield and Hartford, and the legislative action is the result.
 The fact that the senate and house lboth unanimously decided to investi- gate the matter caused tine matter to 1 be regarded as quite a sensation at the capitol.

Winter Care of Poultry.

Next to a draft, Il damp house or
roosting place is the most prolific
cause of colds in fowls. Look after
the dryness and ventilation of your
roOsting quarters also.
A plain cold can be told by the
fowls having Il watery discharge at
the nostrils Il eyes and the birds
throwing their heads and sneeZing. A
plain cold is easily told from the roup
by absence OF Il cheesy substance in
the throat and nostrils of the birds.
This cheesy mass always accompanies
roup. The head will frequently swell
with a cold, but the swelling is more
marked in roup. A common remedy
for colds is to apply Kerosene to the
heads of the worst afflicted birds. A
slight film of kerosene oil on the drink
ing water will often cure mild colds in
a few days.
Bronchitis is the cold extended to
the bronchial tubes and the fowls make
a rafting noise when breathing. This
disease continues for weeks in some
cases. Treat like a severe cold with
kerosene oil, pouring the oil well down
the nostrils and throat.-Rural World.

smoke In HANDLING Bees.

How differently men use or misus,
smoke when handling bees. Some men
even ask me if l ever "smoke in the
jar the hives in taking off the cover,
they pry or pull off the super with II
snap, says an exchange. About this
time the bees, angry bees, begin pour
ing out at the entrance and from the
top of the hive and then the bee
keeper begins using the smoker; but
the bees are mad now, and no amount
of smoke will paclfy them.
The most important place to use
smoke is at the entrance, ald 1t should
be used there as the first step in open
ing the hive. Subdue the bees first,
then all the Earring will only make
their subsection the more complete. SO
me about attempting to handle some
colony, saying that those bees were
perfect tigers and that l would be
stung to death. l always say: Give
me the smoker" 1 give them a good,
thorough smoking at the entrance be-
fore attempting to open the hive. I
then open the hive carefully, using a
little smoke If there is any sign Of
obstreperousness.
AS a rule l pass the ordeal without
a sting, while the owner looks on with
amazement. The whole secret lies in
subduing the bees before opening the
hives. Smoke the bees first, and then
you can usually handle them in peace
and comfort.

A balky horse car be cured, when un-
DER the saddle, by a very simple meth
cd. Turn him around in his tracks
a few times and then suddenly straight
en- his head and he will willingly, and
even gladly, go forward. This was
the method of the celebrated JOIN S.
Rarey and has never been known to
fail.
The "jibbler' differs from the balk-
er inasmuch as his so-called vice is
caused by congestion of the brain. The
horse thus affected is liable to bolt or
run away after one of the attacks and
IS a dangerous animal.
Rearing, although commonly termed
a vice, is often caused by too severe a
curb. Sometimes the rearing horse
loses his balance and fails backward.
1t is needless to say that the rider is
lucky If he or she escapes without Sc
rious, if not fatal, injury. When the
horse rears, loosen the reins and speak
to him in a soothing tone but if he
persists, give him q sharp blow be-
tween the ears with the butt of the
whip. This will bring him down an all
tours with amazing quickness.
Kicking is certainly Il vice. Some
times, however, it is caused by fear, in
which case much can be accomplished
by gentle management. Exactly the
opposite treatment of the rearing ami
NAL should be applied to the kicker.
Hold his head up with might and main,
for the horse cannot throw out both
legs at once when his head is elevat-
ed. Kicking straps are what the name
implies. A strap fastened to the shafts
over the horses crup prevents kicking,
but this is only serviceable when driven
in single harness. Shying is a danger
Gus fault. 1t cannot properly be term
ed a vice; it is generally the result
of defective vision. Gentle treatment,
soothing words and patient persistence
i'll accustoming the animal to the
dreaded object will often effect a cure.
To lash Il horse because he SHES or
is frightened only aggravates the evil.
He will associate the punishment with
the frightful object m will fear it
more and more each time he ericoun-
tiers it.-Country Life in America.

Flax fo- stock Feed.

The prevailing price of concentrated
foodstuffs is %arousing the interest of
farmers in the question of growing
more f~esh-forming foods. Many stock
men who have used oil meal extensive
ly in the past are considering the propo-
sition of growing their own fax,
so that it can be fed without first hay
ing the oil extracted. This is a prac-
tice that 1 cannot recommend too high
ly. l have found from practical ex-
p%erience that an acre or two of fax
will produce one of the most profitable
crops that can be grown. On ordinary
soil there will be a yield of about
twenty bushels per acre. This may
be used in feeding calves, young stock
and any other class of animals which
may for my reason be out of condi-
ton. Flax is not only a food, but is
one of the very best tonics that are
available.-W. J. Kennedy in Iowa
