Vigorous Objection at Public Hearing
 in New York.

New York, Sept. 6.-opposition to the building of skyscrapers was voic- ed vigorously at a public hearing be- fore the committee on limitation of light and area of the building code revision commission to-day

SENATOR HUDSON SUGGESTS REMEDY The Professional Traffickers Would Welcome Return of Annual Legislative

 Sessions.

The reply of Senator Stiles Judson, of Bridgeport, to the inquiry sent him by the Editor of the Journal and Cour- fer with regard to possible improve ment which might be made in the leg islation question of Connecticut which follows, gains in interest from the fact that the controlling interest," to which he refers, saw to it that he was not made chairman of the Judiciary com mittea but instead was made Presi- dent pro-tem of the Senate.
 The same trick was played on Sen ator Fessenden three years ago when, on account of the impending senator ial election in which he was a candi- date and from which Morgan G. Bulk eley issued victor, it was thought best to impair his political power. Senator Judson bore the hazing pa- tiently but that his impressions were not cordially received is shown from the following letter, which absence from his town delayed the answer of. It will be found to be one of the most suggestive yet printed in the sympo- sium of the Journal and Courier.

 Journal and Courier, New Haven,
 Conn:
 My Dear Colonel My failure to acknowledge your favor of August Is, inouiring as to my views in regard to a revival of annual sessions of the general assembly, was due to the fact that I was away upon my summer va cation, and did not return to the office until few days ago. I suppose that yolSe symposium has terminated and that my views are not now desired up on the subject, but for what they may be worth at this time would say that am decidedly opposed to change from the biennial to annual sessions.
 At each session the general assem- bly, is flooded with a volume of pro- posed measures, of which only small portion are meritorious, but under our custom (which probably could not be deviated from) all of these measures must go through the process of refer ence to committee and hearings there- on and reports to the general assem- bly,. This probably is necessary in or der to sift the chaff from the wheat, and it matters not in respect to this volume of business whether the ses- sions are annual or biennial or even where there Is a longer interval of

Thunderstorms.

Do not imagine that because a heavy
thunderstorm is far away to leeward
1t is not likely to arise and wet you.
Even if the wind is blowing right
against the cloud it will come your
way all the more surely, for thunder
storms always travel against the wind.
The reason for this is that there is in
variably commencement of air above
the breeze that you feel close to the
earth, and this sky high wind blows in
the opposite direction to the one which
alone you can detect Thus the tenn
pest seems to work it's way right
through the winds eyes in very con-
trary sort Of way. Fog never does this:
neither does ordinary rain-at least
very seldom-but snow or sleet some
times works it's way up wind just as
the tempest does. Sheet lightning, by
the way, is not a distinctive sort of
light, but merely the reflection in the
sky of forked flash many miles away
You can tell how far away tempest
is by counting the number of seconds
that pass between the flash and the
peal. Each second stands for about a
mile.-NeW York Herald.

Parsimony Means Health.

did you ever notice. said a prom
inent physical culture teacher of New
York, that parsimonious people al
most always enjoy good health and
long life? Eating has great deal to do
with this. We learn that one wealthy
person lunches always on cup of tea
and doughnut; that the great stand
by of another was apples.
ut is not only that they eat frugal
~ that accounts for their excellent
health, but that there is so much reg
ularity in their diet The first thing
the economical person does, as rule,
is to reduce living to a system. He
studies how he can subsist best for the
least money, and then allows himself
very little variety from the regular or
der of things.
Regularity of diet means great
saving of time and money in his eyes,
and, whether he knows it or not, in
adopting rule of eating there is moth
ing which counts SO much in building
up robust constitution. New York
