FOUR PERSONS
 WOULD BENEFIT BY
 BAR ISLAND BRIDGE

Bar Harbor, Me, July 2s.-six cot tages and property owners here, John S. Kennedy, De Witt Clinton Blair, David B. Ogden. Gen. Thomas H. Hub bard, Walter G. Ladd, and William H. L. Lee, all of New York, are the plaintiffs in an action in the United States court asking for an injunction perpetually restraining the town of Eden from making contract for building a bridge to Bar Island. The municipal officers have been served.
 The bill of the plaintiffs sets forth that the island is owned entirely by two persons, has only one inhabited house and four human inhabitants. ard that to build a bridge across a part of the Atlantic Ocean to reach such a property is not only waste of public money, but an expenditure of public money for private purposes, in violation of the Constitution.
 The amount which the town has voted to borrow for this purpose is s35. 900. The proposed bridge starts from a point near the Swimming Club property and extends northerly about 800 feet to an island in the harbor. 1t is to rest on a bar, which is wholly covered at high tide.
 s The town decided last March by a large vote to construct the bridge. .

 AND RECOVERS HEALTH

New York, July 29.-Mrs. B. M. Me AHister, wife of a British colonial of ficial in West Africa, sailed yesterday by the Cunarder Lusitanfa to complete a world circling trip which she started on nine months ago, accompanied only by her maid, to restore her health. She has recovered it completely. She left London by ship. going to the East by way of the Suez Canal. She mo- tored over India, China, and Japan, took ship from Yokohama to Van couver and came through Canada to the United States, where she spent some time with friends. She has her own automobile, for which she engag- ed chauffeurs when she needed them.
 She does not approve of the suffra- gette movements She says she found the women in all the civilized places she had passed through happy and contented, more so she thought than her mistaken sisters in London. She had not been molested or insulted in any of the lands in which she had travelled,

NEW WHITE MOUNTAIN
 TRAIL BLAZED BY
PLUCKY WOMAN,


 Breton Woods, N. H., July 29-A slender little woman, Mrs. James A. Cruikshank of New York, last night completed a feat which no one of the mountaineers who have for years ex- plored the White Mountains, has ever atempted-the blazing of a new and easily accessible trail from Mount Field to Mount Wiley.
 Accompanied only by her husband. who was always in the rear and pres ent only as a guard, Mrs. Cruikshank walked, crawled, or climbed over 15 miles of heavily wooded mountain country, three miles of which had never been invaded previously, and most of which was such as to test the powers of the most experienced of mountainers. Although Mount Field and Mount Wiley were already the terminals from other mountains, they have never been connected by navi- gable path until tonight.
 Mrs. Cruikshank holds a record for mountain climbing in the Canadian Rockies.

YOUNG BRITISH GIANT
 CREATES A SENSATION.

New York, July 29.-When George Dolling, an Englishman feet inches in height, landed sfrom the Ellis Is- land ferry at the Barge Office yester- day his appearance created something of sensation.
 The giant smiled good naturedly down on the crowd that surrounded him, and after shaking hands with his brother-in-law, Benjamin Corday, a stripping of 6 feet inches, told in terviewers how tall he was and said that he weighed 275 pounds. He is 2S years old and wears No. 17 shoe. He added that he has a brother in Eng land who is just feet in height.
 MT. Dolling-everybody was careful to call him mister-walked across to the food wagon at the edge of Battery Park. and, stopping, poked his head Tn at the window and asked for a sandwich.
 Hey. your called out the restaurant man, "come down off that wheel and come in and order what you want.'
 Dolling went around to the door. and a much subdued waiter served him the sandwich.
 The giant said he had been with a show in England, but he was here to visit his sister.

It was not originally intended that this stock should have other than a voting power, but the trust has prospered exceed ingly under the fostering care of a high tariff and, despite the assertion of Andrew Carnegie that iron and steel no longer need protection, this giant infant is to enjoy further nursing. The main purpose of the tariff duty of 45 cents per ton on iron ore, is evil dently to prevent New England from importing this ore. Under govern mental care, the dividends upon the Steel Trusts common stock should further increase

THE AMENDED SUNDAY BILL

The bill degaaizing baseball and other
 eports on Sunday, which was rejected by the State Senate on Tuesday, would probably, if it could be submitted to a Ipopular vote, be adopted. Its majori- ties. in the cities. boroughs and larger [towns would be large. Public senti- ment upon the matter of broadening
 the day is changing. This is illus trated by the vote in the Senate, F of the. z7 votes cast being in flavor of the bill. Among those voting yea were iSenators Holzer and Arnold of Bridge port, while Senator Manwaring voted nay. It would not be surprising, if the next General Assembly should decree q more liberal Sunday.
 The State Senate, on "Wednesday, re-
 considered its rejection of the Sunday lbiH, amended it and then passed it. It Iis as follows:
 Section l. Sunday, within the mean ing of this act, is hereby defined to be a day for general rest and the more charitable duties and offices. On said day, except as hereinafter provided, no person shall keep open any shop, ware house, or mechanical, mercantile, or misunderstanding establishment, or en- gage. in any sport or any secular busi- tnea9 or labor, except work Of necessity or mercy, or such as shall be required flor Ae maintenance of public order, the preservation or promotion of health or safety, or is necessary for Ethe general welfare of the commun- tty.
 Sec. g. The provisions of section 1 { of this act shall not affect the issue Or service of any criminal complaint or any. proceedings thereon, nor the per ! fformance by, haywards of their duties, fnor the issue or service of complaints for ir1unctions and orders thereon, nor fhe fsue or service of other civil pro- cess except between sunrise and sum l set on Sunday. Sec. 8. Any person found guilty of violating any of the provisions of the act on said day between the hours of l12 o'clock Saturday night and 12 o'clock ] Sunday night shall be fined not more than $50 or imprisoned not more than l six months, or both.
 Sec. f Sections 1869 and 1870 of the
 general statutes ar ehereby repealed.

The Hartford Courant, looking into the future, foresees grave trouble for the Republican party from the action of the present General Assembly. It says:
 Reject the employers liability. act; kill off the repeal of the S5,OO0 limit for killing; do nothing about public utilities; and then wonder how men, when a campaign comes on, can get up and talk "demagogically'' about the rights of the common people and the influence of corporations on legis- aation. It is blind and crazy policy; and, when the whirlwind that is being soWed now breaks on us, those who have pleaded against such policy will be the very ones that will be ap- pealed to for help-
