IN the country today to stand behind
ana enforce prohibition.
IL is work of evolution.
Tries to Shift the Responsibi,itx
After discussing the pending
measures Affecting the LIQUOR trait
nc, Speaker Cannon declared that
the whole trouble was with the SEN
ate, not the house, and that until
we have secured the passage of the
measures we advocated In the SEN
ate neither the house nor its presid-
ing onicer should be held RESPONSE
BILE for the delay.
The speaker intimated that he
would not oppose legislation II II
passed the senate but for the housa
TO take the Initiative was another
question.
II had expected that the speaker
OF the house Of representatives OF
the United States would give me
some argument In favor of the IL
cense system that would be new but
the same reasons that are heard
from the man who wishes TO sell
comes from ell of his defenders,
There Is this, however, about the
speakers statements; he apparently
favores prohibition In two ways: (1)
BY high license, and (2) by a strong
sentiment in Its favor. presume
that we can get the last kind of
prohibition when the defenders of
the saloon cannot help themselves.
The first kind VIC know Is a failure" /"

ATTRACTIVE FALL OPENING.
Handsome Display of Waists and
 Gowns at Miss O'Bricn's.

No more picturesque costumes than those seen at Miss O Briens on Orange street have been shown in New Haven in many seasons This opening had all the air of a social function, and the very attractive little shop was throng- ed all day with home -comers who were lavish in their admiration of the beau tiful gowns, suits and waists display ed Most of the afternoon and evening gowns are made in Directoire style, and the colorings are most exquisite, One gown of blue satin In one of the new shaues was made after a Duchess model the bodice being of embroider- ed band with the blue and white, gold thread showing here and there and a touch of black, a short vest effect above the band was of gold braid, the yoke and sleeves of white net and the long sashes finished with heavy silk fringe.
 Another model was of toupe, messa- line, in Directoire fashion the sleeves and yoke of chiffon of the same color with touches of cream lace for finish ing. A green chiffon broadcloth Direc- toire gown had tuck net yoke, the body of the gown being severely plain, the sleeves tight and long, and the only trimmings were buttons of the cloth and sash of black satin. A leather brown chiffon gown was profuslon O. tucks the very handsome yoke lined with cream net and the neck finished with narrow velvet band and tie of bright blue. A very handsome trotting gown Is of dark blue camels hair trim med with border material In which soft shades of green appear. Under the bodice sash of black satin closes at one side with long ends finished with fringe
 Of peacock blue Egyptian satin was one gown fashioned handsomely trim med with band of copper braid These are only a few of the gowns of this or der for the evening gowns positively beggar description. They are in the most delicate shades of pink, blue, maze, lavender, with trimmings of lace and net and on many of them soft fringe Is used in most fascinating eff feet. The coats for evening wear are charming. a particularly attractive one being black satin Dlrectoire coat with rich braid trimmings and lined with white satin
 In the tailor-mades the two, three and four piece suits are shown. in a bewildering array of shades of chiffon broadcloth. The wisteria, raspberry, catawba. peacock blue and bronze green. Some are quite richly plain. others are elaborately braided. There are the striped suits also and those of msnnish mixtures. beautifully cut and finished In the waist showing the mo- tIceable feature is the long sleeve. This Is positively general Waists of chiffon voilc have dainty narrow paitings to finish each of the wide tucks which ex- tend from neck to waist The net waists. many of them are trimmed with Persian bands of embroidered net with sometimes wee bow at the front or the callor. of black. green, blue or some other combining color There are handsome embroidered linen waists strictly tailored too.
 There is an air of perfection about everything one sees in this very de- lightful little shop where woman can find various articles out Of the ordin- ary.

Old Land Mark Goes.

Southington. Sept. 14.--An historic landmark passed away to-day with the burning of the building and surround ing structures known as the Bunham place. located In this town near the Plainville line. The house was occu- pied by NJ. L. Lauredeen. One of the smaller buildings was ignited by a spark, 1t is believed. from an engine operating on the place and the flames swept over the barns and the house. Some of the furnishings of the latter were saved The loss Is placed at about s1,00o. The house was built in 11ss and for long time served as a relay station on the stage coach route from New Haven to Hartford.

 gilo before his arrest search was be- gun in Darien. Inquiry made of the Darien authorities brings out no in- formation, but shortly 1t Is believed
 that the mystery will be cleared away.
