 The country has to be saved the next few months and our grand old warrior, Parson Hanks, IS not asleep at the switch i, but he IS very much awake at- ending to the local post-office, and the brunt of the battle will have 10 be bourne by other pat riots. Folks joke "the Parson" but very few of them are aware that he Is one of the heroes of 1.-The Hornets Nest, at Shiloh, Tenn, that April day so long ago when Albert Sydney Johas- tons gray-elad legions battled with Grants boys in blue. Par son Hanks was stripling cap tain of one of those regiments there at the sunken road where the great rush was checked, and when the morning dawned Nell sons brigades were there to bounce upon the foremost Con- federate troops and drive them back towards Corinth. That has been a long time ago, but my old veteran friend remembers 1t well on account of the desperate wound he received that evening.

DIFFER IN FIGURES Some Papers Unable to Agree as to Bent of Delegates
 Chosen. FROM TWO POINTS OF VIEW Totals Secured by Middletown Sun and Hartford Courant Are at
 Variance.

The state papers and their statistl- clans are all at sea over the number of delegates that Lilley, Lake and Woodruff have for the state conven- tion, One thing Is practically certain and that is that since his declaration, seven delegates have been chosen for Governor Woodruff and the three prac- tlcally decided upon in Guilford last night brings the number pu to TO-
 The Hartford Courant gives Lilley 96, Lake 2S, and Woodruff ', before the choice of the Guilford delegates. The equally impartial Middletown Sun gives Lilley 68, Lake 59 and Woodruff G. The Waterbury American thinks that Will lington must be for Lilley because Col. w. 1T. Hall, who Is a big factor In the town, heads the delegation and Is for Lilley. But this claim, with all due apologies, Is false one, for Col. Hall was sporting a handsome Lake button at the legislative reunion last week and declined to pin on a Lilley one when they were distributed.
 Both Lilley and the anti-Liley move ment claim Winsted and there will be a battle royal there with the odds in favor of the antis. Willimantic Is an other doubtful place with Senator Charles A. Gates working for Lilley New London Is split by a factiona row, but the Waterbury man Is said to be in the lead there.
 The announcement of Governor Wal Ter that he will not run on the demo- cratic ticket this fall comes as d great relief to the republicans, especially the Lilley dictators.

GREAT WHITE CITY DAY.
Fireworks, Band Concerts, Daring
 Feats, etc., on Friday.

Friday at the White City, both after noon and evening, will witness an un- precedented rush of amusements. Con- certs by Holt's American band will add musical flavor and inspiration to one of the greatest days the Sons of Erin have ever had in New Haven. Many special features are being arranged in honor of the Hibernians by Manager Speck.
 The fireworks extravaganza will pre- sent a scene of glory run wild. To talk expense-well expense is not to enter into the arrangements. There will be a pyrotechnical exhibition that will be simply bewildering and brilliant almost beyond conception.
 Besides other attractions, Upton, the Devil Roller Skater, will skate down the great ohutes and Davalo, the diving boy, will dive from a sixtyfoot staging into the laea~n but four feet deep,

FIGHTING A TRUST.

night OF independent companies

companies forming an offensive and dc

introduction OF trust representatives. as
officials Ia the Independent movement.
The New York Evening Post reviews
the case as follows.
Several years ago these indie
pendent dealers organized them
selves into an association Known as
the New York Butchers Dressed Meat

JAPANESE WORLDS FAIR.

There will be no war with Japan in
the immediate future. This country has
received an invitation from tho Jap
anese government 70 take part IN n
World fair TO be held at Toxic in
1919. II japan had hostile Intentions
she would not prepare for Worlds
fair ut the expense of many million
dollars II ls true the United states
had an exposition at Omaha the same
year the country fought for the free
dom of Cuba, but no other country In
the world could afford to have fair
and a war at practically the same time.
II goes without saying that the United
States will accept the invitation and
make the best possible showing, even
IL It should cost million dollars. or
more, TO adequately represent the
country. This is the first Worlds fair
ever held in the Orient The Asiatics
who have made such favorable impress
sions at our fairs will be largely rep
resented there. They will come from
many parts of the continent and the
impression they receive at the fair VIII
not be without influence upon the ORR
entail trade. Congress should take ac-
ton early in order that this country
may have the benefit of location and
buildings at the exposition.
THE location of the exposition
WILL according to the Washington
correspondence Of the Chicago Record
Herald. "be on tract of 292 acres
known as the Aoyama Parade Ground.
in the City OF Toxic, which belongs to
the imperial estate of Yoyogi and lies
along the tracks Of the Kobu Railroad,
so that It may be easily and conven-
iently reached. There Will be five
grand divisions OF. exhibits-education
science, machinery. electricity and
manufactures--and those from foreign
governments will be installed accord
ingly. For other exhibits outside, Of
these classihcations each nation may
erect its own buildings. There will be
no charge for ground rent for such
buildings. Tho installation In the
regular buildings will be according TO
the plan devised at ST. Louis by Mr..
Skiff. the director of exhibits"
IF this show is managed with the
thoroughness that marks Japanese en-
terprise, II viii be the largest and
best exposition ever held. It is to
cost ten million dollars. and that sum
ought to go in Japan about as far as
twenty million dollars here.
