WHIST FOR ST. JAMES RECTORY

! Dwellers in the city who wish for delightful outing, who want to see fine old town in all its spring-time beauty. and at the same time enjoy a pleasant reunion with many people besides helping on good cause, will attend the St. James whist which is to be given Tuesday evening at Red Mems hall in Stratford. This will be the last indoor entertainment for the season, and being in charge of Father O'Connor is sure to be both interesting and profitable. Since the purchase of the Cosswell mansion for a rectory for the new proposed St. James church. much interest has been manifested by all the members of St. James parish in the success of the work which Father O'Connor has undertaken. It is we'll known that he made a good bar gain when he bought the house which he hopes to occupy next October The whists which were given heretofore for the building fund of St. James have proved to be eminently satisfactory to all who attended. What with a. good list of aluabIe prizes. music. refresh ments and the enjoyments of the game, not to mention the purpose for which the entertainment is given, there should be a large crowd of the friends of the church in attendance.

Referring to the argument that pub { He utilities commissions have wrought harm in other states. a correspondent tor the Courant says:. t
 The shares of Massachusetts corpo- 5raffons sell at higher rates than those |of other states, and the New York {Cenfral to-day. "hampered" by the atate. Is selling at over 13O and paying 1& per cent in dividends, while the New tXork. New Haven & Hartford, unham- pered, is selling at III and paying 8 Iper cent, If the New York, New Ha- { kven Hartford sold on the same ba- fHis as the Central, it's price would be < z88 instead of I'll. If the Central sold \ on the same basis as the New Haven, Its price would be 107.
 5 Properly constructed and properly Authorized public utilities commission fers would serve to the safety of both I stockhoIders and investors. They iwou1d protect the former from such ~stock watering" as might lessen the < value of and the income from their W shares, and they would ascertain for investors Information of real condi- lions. Under such commissions. the s'skin'' game of practically. forcing the stockholders in one corporation to ac- cept in exchange reduced number of ahares in another would be checked, and the game which was once played by Jay Gould upon Commodore Van derbilt = starting the printing presses upon new certificates of stock when a6r. Vanderbilt was-seeking control of the Erie road-would become infpos- gible of perpetratfon.
 From every point of view except <nat Of manipulators of shares of stock ma rates of prices. the creation of a

 It contained potatoes, carrots, beets, cabbage, can of berries, fresh egg, and nicely dresse.I, plump chicken. On the outside was nailed a bunch oi sweet scented spearmint whose frag- rance carried US back in memory tG the barefoot days of innocence, dosn on the farm.
 These gentlemen may have grown those vegetable, but only the deli cate touch of a woman's hand could pack them up 90 perfectly, and to Jack and Bob and Peter we extend our thanks, with the strict injunction that they carry our kindest appreciation to Mrs. King.
