Privatserinq.

Privateering dates from the reign of King Edward I.-1272-13O7. He was the first monarch to adopt that method of making war on an enemy. It grew out of the fact that at that time the nations of the world had but primitive navies and had to draw on the mer- chant marine for the bulk of their strength at sea. With England show ing the way. the other nations of Eu- rope lost 10 time in adopting this plan of injuring an enemy. Commissions were issued by belligerent state to vessels owned and manned by private persons. authorizing them to carry on hostilities at sea against the other bel- hgerent. It was not long before this license to merchantmen created a prac- tical state of piracy.

HIGH COST OF LIVING.
Increased Gold Output Partly Re-
 sponsible-More Prosperity.

l have thus, in a message compressed as much as the subjects will permit, referred to many of the legislative needs of the country, with the excep- tions already noted. Speaking gener
 ally. the country is in a high state of prosperity. There is every reason to believe that we are on the eve of substantial business expansion, and we have just garnered harvest unex- ampled in the market value of our agricultural products. The high prices which such products bring mean great prosperity for the farming community; but, on the other hand, they mean a very considerably increased burden upon those classes in the community whose yearly compensation does not expand with the improvement in busi- ness and the general prosperity. Yari- ous reasons are given for the high prices. The proportionate increase in the output of gold, which today is the chief medium of exchange and is in some respects measure of value, fur nishes substantial explanation of at least part of the increase in prices. The increase in population and the more expensive mode of living of the people, which have not been accom- panied by proportionate increase in acreage production, may furnish fur ther reason. It is we'll to note that the increase in the ee-s of living Is not

FACTORY ACCIDENTS.
New Law Requires Those in Charge to Report Serious Injuries to Factory lnspector

The general assembly at it's last ses- sion passed law requiring that all accidents of a serious nature in which employees are injured so that they are compelled to remain out of work for week or more. or are killed, shall be reported to the factory inspector by the person in charge of the estab- lishment in which the accident oc- cured.
 The new law. which is self-explan- atory, follows:
 "Section Tt shall be the duty of the person in active charge of any manufacturing or mercantile estab- lishment to forward by mail to the factory inspector at his office in Hart ford. within fifteen days after each ac- cident resulting in serious physical in- jury to an employe while at work in such an establishment, a written notice of every such accident of which he shall have knowledge, which notice shall state the name of the injured employe, the time of the accident, and the nature of the injury. and shall also contain general description of the location in the establishment and of the character of the machine, if any, upon which the employe was at work at the time.
 Sec. 2.-The factory inspector shall forthwith transmit to the person in charge of such establishment a written acknowledgment of the receipt of such notice. and shall keep record of such accidents thus reported to him. Such records, notices and reports to the factory inspector, and any inves- tigation made by him or his deputies or agents, shall be privileged and con- fidential and shall not be open for examination or inspection, and neither such factory inspector nor any of his deputies or agents shall be a compe tent witness as to the facts involved in such accident in any proceeding pending in any court unless such fac tory inspector, depcty or agent was present at the time of the occurrence of the accident.
 Sec. 3.-The term accident result ing in serious physical injury, as used in this act, shall be construed to mean every accident which results in the death of the employe or causes his absence from work for at least one week thereafter.
 Sec. Amy person. after having received from the factory inspector forms for such notices, who shall fail to send notice of any accident as re- quired by this act shall be fined not more than twenty dollars"
 In busy manufacturing city like New Britain there are several acci- dent every week despite the fact that those in charge of the factories have used every precaution to prevent in- jury to their employees.
 Most of the accidents, however are slight in nature and thus far very few reports have had to be sent to the factory inspector from this city. It is greatly to the credit of those in charge of the manufacturing establish ments that they are doing all in their power to render accidents impossible.

THOUGHT DEAD.
Man Seen in Bridgeport Sensation
 in Divorce Suit.

There was a sensational develop ment in slit for annulment of mar riage brought by Frederick Gilman of Arlington, N. J.. before Vice Chan cellor Howell in Newark last Friday when one of the witnesses in the case swope that Mrs. Glllman's first nus- band is alive and that he had talked with him in this city the previous Sunday. says the Bridgeport Telegram. The proceedings were halted and a special commissioner was appointed to come to this city and interview the al- legged husband. Jeremiah Morton, who is said to live here.
 Gillman's grouid for seeking the annuliment of his marriage is that his wife married Morton in Ireland that there was no divorce. and that Morton is still alive. Mrs. Gilman claimed that her first husband died before she married Gilman in 1900, and wit nesses swore to seing his body in the morgue in New York. The case will be resumed January F.

PROFIT IN FLOWERS.
Big Money Made by Waterbury Flor
 ists in a Short Time.

The Waterbury Republican says: 1t may sound like a fairy tale, but it IS nevertheless true. that there are two men in Waterbury who have made $40,O0o in seven years. These two men now have a business which pays them about S10.000 per year and they hope to double that income within the next five years. In this optimistic hope they are joined by their two ac- tive partners-there are two active and three silent partners in the concern and plans are now in preparation to bring about a doubling of the present income.
 The two men are John Sake and Frank Floto. florists on Hamilton ave nue. The two active partners of those men are Mrs. Saxe and Mrs. Floto, and the three silent partners are Per severance, Honesty and Sobriety. It is combination hard to beat in the business world, and combination that seldom goes into the hands of the receiver.
 Seven years ago John Sake and Frank F1oto decided to go into the business of raising flowers for the market. Neither man was possessed of much capital Mir Sake had a small place out on Hamilton avenue an1 ;,t first glance the soil appeared to be well adapted for the raising of rocks and stubble, and it was at that stage that Perseverance was taken into the firm.
 With such crude implements as .hey had in their possession. Messrs. Sake and Floto went to work to clear up the land and by laboring before sun- rise and after sunset they soon had a large plot of ground in condition for the culture of plants. These plants found a ready market and the profits were turned over to the purchase of an adjoining strip of land and some buildings

MUMMY FOR YALE.
May be Former Rameses, May Be His
 Cook.

A prominent Egyptian arrived in New York Sunday on the steamship Ara gonia. He will make his home in New Haven as an attache of Yale.
 It is not certain whether he is a hitherto unpublished Rameses or whether he is the cook of the Harnesses who swatted the Hittities
 That will be ascertained when he gets to Yale and they read the mean ing of the papyrus texts, the amulets, the little figures of alabaster and the messages to the old gods that are be- lieved to be with him in his cedar case. Harold Stokes, a brother of Anson Phelps Stokes, the secretary of Yale university made his acquaintance in Egypt and believed that he would be a valuable acquisition for that insti- tuition.
 Harold Stokes billed the mummy to J. H. Mccullough of 100 William street, who represents Anson Phelps Stokes, and MT. Mccullough will for ward the Egyptian to Mir Stokes at the university. MT. Mccullough had practically no line on the mummy s past. He said he had an idea that an- cient Egyptians came in free under the Payn-Aldrich tariff and that MT. Stokes would not have to pay duty.

Soap fin powder form is more con- venient, economical and more efficient than in the bar. Gold Dust, one of the first and the best examples of soap pow der can be used more economically than a soap, because the quantity desired can be measured out and no more used; with soap the whole cake or a portion of it must be put into the water not only wasting more than is really needed, but also soaking the rest of the cake with water, which does not improve it. In- deed, some soaps lose much of their goodness by leaving the unused part of the cake in water.

NO WRITTEN HISTORY.
Annals of City of Ansonia Never Put

The suggestion of Supt.> Buckley of the public schools of Ansonia that a textbook of Ansonia be prepared for the use and information of the chil- dren of the city, is being favorably commented upon. There is no written history of Ansonia, and the teachers in the public schools labor at a dis advantage when touching local mat ters. The only book which the teach CT or other seeker of information re- garding Ansonia can consult is The History of the Old Town of Derby, published in 1880 by Orcutt & Boards ley. Ansonia is simply mentioned be- cause it was a part of Derby. and. while valuable in many ways, the book cannot be considered history of An sonia.
