New Haven, November IS, 1908


 Resolutions by Christ church, West Haven, were passed as follows:
 The rector, warlens and vestrymen of Christ church. West Haven, on be- half of the parish desire to place on record their appreciation of the life and character of the late Rev George Brmley Morgan, D. D., rector of Christ church, New Haven, and of their sense Of loss in his death.
 with tho whole community we are benenciaries of his pure, unscliish and holy lIfc and we share with the rest of the diocese and church the benefit of nis strong convictions and broad religious sympathy, and his taste and guidance In all that makes beautiful the worship and service of God; but wc feel that . peculiarly close ana personal relation existed between him and our parish. He Il was wno insti- tuted the present rector and preached tho sermon on the occasion. We gratefully recall that it was through his thoughtful offices that the large gift of money which rendered possible the building of our church was made by Mrs Boardman and appropriately he preached Che sermon at tae conse- craion of the building At all Import ant paroChIal recommendations, his presence was always looked for, Gra- ciausly youchsafed and gratefully ap- precioted, By the people of the parish as a whole inc was regarded as a per sonal friend,
 We beg to extend to his bereayed family and scrrowing parish our deep sympathy and pray that the divine comfort which he SO constantly brought to others in grief may be abundantly granted to them in this dark hour"

CLAIMS EGGS ARE LIVE STOCK.
Importer Seeks to Evade Tariff by
Novel Proposition.

Washington.-Is an egg live stock?
II it is bought for the purpose of
Matching, is it live stock for breeding
purposes?
G. F. Statter of Sioux City has the
department. of the treasury worrying
about these and sundry collateral
questions. Mr.. Statter sent to Eng
and for couple of dozen eggs of the
Black Orpington, an especially aristo-
cratic general purpose" hen; that is,
hen that can lay an egg every day
md at the same time be eaten for din
ner with satisfaction and comfort.
The cheerful joker who billed the
Eggs out of England and who didn't
know anything about the tariff valued
them at 500. When they got to the
custom house at Sioux City duties of
s25 were assessed against them. Mr..
Slater protested. He had heard of
The famous ruling of Secretary Shaw
that frogs are poultry for the purposes
Of tariff, and he figured that eggs were
i've stock, potentially at least,
Under the law registered live stock
imported fer breeding purposes is en-
titled to come in free. But the depart
ment decided against the Sioux City
man, and his only hope is to reopen
The case. Meanwhile he is for tariff
revision-not at the hands of its
friends.

Texas Railroad Law Invalid.

Washington.-In deciding the case
of the Galveston & San Antonio Rail-
way Company VS.. the State of Texas,
involving taxes on that and other Tex
as roads the Supreme Court Monday
held to be unconstitutional the Texas
law Of 1905, fixing the tax rate on rail
roads equal to l per cent. on their
gross earnings when they lie wholly
within the state, and a proportionate
sum when they lie partly within the
state. The opinion was delivered by
Justice Holmes, who held that the law
is an effort to regulate interstate COM
merce and that therefore the tax could
not be collected.
The chief justice and Justice Har-
Ian, White and McKenna united in a
dissenting opinion, which was de-
livered by Justice Harlan. Justice Har-
Ian expressed the opinion that the de-
cision strikes serious blow at the
taxing law Of the state.

CLAIMS TO KNOW SEX SECRET.
Woman Declares She Made Discovery
Which Will Benefit World,

New York.-Mrs. C. E. Calhoun de.
:lares she has discovered the secret
of sex. After 80 years, devoted large
ly to studying the subject, she asserts
she has proved by actual demonstra-
ton that parents can have boys or
girls at will, that stock breeders and
ranchmen can produce COW or bull
calves as they see fit, and that horti-
culturists can grow male or female
plants at will.
The last of her family, she main
tains, was made to order. After
three girls had come along she de-
cided to change the sex of those that
followed so she put the discovery at
work and had four boys. Now she is
widow and her children are grown,
SO she proposes to give the whole
world the benefit of her discovery in a
book she is writing and expects to
publish it within month.
As household article, Mrs. Cal
houn is sure her discovery will be
popular. A boy or girl baby at will is
bound to give Joy. What her process
is she is Withholding until her book
comes out.

about. Cowmen thought of the de-

Louise was awakened by sudden
shrek of wind that swept through the
slight aperture left by the raised win
dow and sent something crashing to
the floor. She lay for moment drowsi-
ly wondering what had fallen. Was
it anything that could be broken? She
heard the steady push of the wind
gaiust the frail frame building, and
knew she ought to compel herself suf-
ficiently to be aroused to close the
window. But she was very sleepy.
The crash had not awakened Mary
She was breathing quietly and deeply.

could not do it. The dilapidated green
blind was tapping dismally. What
time was 1t? Maybe 1t was nearly
morning, and then the wind would
probably go down. That would save
her from getting up. She snuggled
under the covers and prepared to slip
deliciously off into slumber again.
But she couldn't go to sleep after
all. A haunting suspicion preyed on
her waking faculties that the crash
might have been the water pitcher.
She had been asleep and could not
gausL the shock of the fall. 1t had
seemed terrific, but what awakens one
from sleep is always abnormal to
ones startled and unremembering
consciousness. Still. it might have
been the pitcher. She cherished no
fond delusion as to the impenetra-
bility of the warped cottonwood floor
ing. Water might even then be trick
ling through to the room below. She
found herself wondering where the
bed stood, and that thought brought

the window was closed there seemed
to be much air in the room. The
blind still tapped, though at longer in

room, she and Mary? She thought Of

There was no other in the town. The

HANDcAR is THE FAST MAIL.
Dublin, Tex, Postmaster Proves EquaI
to Emergency.

Dublin, Textile difficulties of be.
ing a postmaster in Texas when train
service is suspended by floods and
high water have been experienced by
Nicholas D. Smith, postmaster of this
place, during the recent rise in the
river here and the consequent cutting
off of all railroad communications.
Dublin is situated on two lines, the
Frisco and the Texas Central. Both
lines suspended the operation of all
trains, and number of small towns
were without any way to get mail
1t was up to the Dublin postmaster
to devise means of making the deliv,
cry of letters at least. He was equal
to the emergency. To several towns
he sent mail clerks afoot; to others
he went himself on handcar, and to
still other villages he went on work
trains and sent his men in the same
manner. For three or four days, dur.
ing which the railroads were unable
to operate, Postmaster Smith repeated
these performances and kept the
towns supplied with the letter mail.
