yesterday. He is much improved in
health.
New Haven-Notices are ousted at
the shop of the l.. Candee company
that the big plant will close down
next Saturday until April s. 1t is
understood this shut down is caused
by the dizziness of the rubber shoe
trade. 1t will affect about 800 OPP
eratives.
New Haven-Pending further nego-
tiations with the various shop unions.
the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad company have suspend

question will finally be determined,
whether or not it will go into effect.
New Haven-John Lynch, ten
years old school boy, was run down
by an automobile near the Chapel

that the fact that he was given more
liberty between retreat parade and taps
did not make of him a less steady
marksman on the range. The old SOL
diers hold Redfield Proctor in tender
memory.
The United States senate has passed
bill giving Major General o. o. How
ard, retired, the rank Of Lieutenant
general, rank that ought to have
been given him years ago. Howard
never asked congress for tho promo
ton, and he never asked a friend to
ask 1t for him. He was perfectly con-
tent apparently to see other men less
deserving go ON the retired list with
the rank which should have been his.
One Of the last acts In life Of Redfeld
Proctor was to prepare and introduce
bill for the promotion of General
Howard. Proctor did 1t voluntarily,
and he succeeded in getting the senate
to pass 1t. 1t seems probable that SEN
timent will move the house to approve
Of the last measure which the senator
introduced into the upper house.
It was always Secretary Proctor's
belief that large part of the credit
for the proper deploying and placing Of
the Union troops at Gettysburg be-
longed to General Howard If he dies a
lieutenant general the fact will be due
to the work on his behalf done volun-
tarily by the senator from Vermont
over whose soldier body taps were re-

Il believe that when fully under

and that 1t viii be the great antitoxin
for tetanus," said Professor A. G.
Mayer, director Of the department Of
marine biology of the Carnegie insti-
tute at Washington, who recently ar
rived In Boston on the Romania from
Naples. Professor Mayer went SO far
as to say, when life is apparently
extinct, the vital spark can be brought
back by use Of magnesium"
Professor Mayer said that In the
course of his experiments abroad he
took several jellyfish and put them In
a tank filed with sea water. Then he
withdrew all the magnesium from the
water, and In less than two hours the
fish were shriveled up and apparently

Guthrie, Okla. Nov lz.--At meet
ing Of the school land commission yes-

farm mortgage money was drawn up
by Governor Haskell. member. and
adopted Mr.. Haskelrs statement to
the commission, including the new reg
ulation, follows:
Il want to state 10 the board that 1
have numerous requests and recon-
mendations from farmers Of this state
who borrow or contemplate borrowing
our farm mortgages money that In
order to enable to pay their proposed
loans as quickly as they can earn the
money, that farm mortgages should
be authorized where desired for onG
year instead OF five years. it beng
in the power Of the board where the
borrower might not be ready to pay
his full loan at the end Of the year.
that the payment u the whole OF un-
pad portion thereof might be extended,
bearing mind that the state has two
purposes in loaning this money to
our Oklahoma farmers: First, that Il
makes safe per cent investment
for the school fund, and second. that
it enables our farmers to procure
money at living rate of interest to
them, and while our amount of school
fund is not enough to accommodate
all Of the farmers who want to bor-
row money, yet It does good as far as
it will reach and we find many in
stances showing that it encourages
other farm mortgage loan agencies to
