PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION.
Remarks of New Haven Senator Re-
garded as Most Significant.

(F'rom the Connecticut Press Bureau)
Hartford, March S.-The remark of
Senator Blakeslee of New Haven that
he didn't understand that two-thirds
of the legislature was pledged to the
public utilities commission measure, as
Senator Manwaring of Bridgeport mad
said, is regarded as most significant.
There is no general feeling that any
legislator is pledged to anything but a
careful and honest consideration of the
measures that come up. as Senator
Biakeslee said, and some have wonder
ed who pledged the party to this meas
ure, if it is pledged The platform
adopted at the New Haven state con-
vention in September said no such
thing.
Small town members are comparing
the public utilities commission bill
proposed by the commission appointed
by the last legislature to the PROPOSE
ton for direct primaries in the way
thai both are entering wedges for tax
ing away from the towns the influence
they now possess in shaping the at
fairs of the state. Direct primaries
would give the power TO make nomina-
tions to the cities, with their larger
number of voters. and taking the con-
troll Of public utilities corporations, To-
cal and otherwise. cut of the hands OF
the legislature and placing it in the
hands of a commission of three ap-
pointed by the governor would merely
rob the towns Of one more cherished
prerOgatiye.

MUSICIAN IN FORM
AFTER LONG ILLNESS

81 consulted doctors in all of the
larger cities, among them some of the
most eminent men in the profession,
but their treatment did not help me.
/ also tried numerous remedies that
were recommended by friends, but all
to no purpose. I grew steadily worse.
with no prospect IN sight for relief.
Then the Cooper preparations were
brought to my attention, and I pro-
cured a treatment Of Coopers New
Discovery. / was as much surprised
as any one could be at its effect upon
my system.
Il make no eXaggeration when | say
that this Cooper medicine gave me the
first relief / had been able to get. In
a remarkably short time 1 began to
rest easier and felt better in every
way. BY the time the treatment was
exhausted 1 was entirely well. My
rheumatism had disappeared and my
stomach gave me no trouble whatever
My friends can scarcely believe their
eyes when they see me, and l myself
can. hardly realize that it is true. l
am back in form again and ready for
work. Coopers New Discovery is the
most remarkable medicine / ever heard
off,
Coopers New Discovery is now on
sale at leading druggists everywhere.
1t has made a wonderful record. II

Harry f. Hamilton, well-known
musician living at 234 East Fifty
ninth street, New York, who for sew
eral years past has suffered from a
complication of ills, has recently been
restored to his former good health.
Mr. Hamilton attributes his recovery
to the celebrated Cooper preparations
which are now being demonstrated to
the public in this city. In speaking Of
his experience Thursday. Mr.. Hamil-
ton said:
"Some years ago I experienced
trouble with my stomach. At first I
paid little attention to it, thinking it
was only of a temporary character,
and that it would soon pass away.
Blu. it went from bad to worse, and as
I was travelling over the country at the
time, eating here, there and every
where, at any and all hours. the irreg-
ularity of my habits had tendency
to aggravate my condition.
''My digestive organs became i'm
paired: there was a feeling of heavJ-
ness after eating, accompanied by an
accumulation Of gas that was very
oppressive and painful, causing my
heart to palpitate like a trip hammer
Then my kidneys became affected and
1 experienced great pain in my back.
To cap the climax, I suffered an at
tack of rheumatism, and from that
time on l was in constant pain and
never felt well

A fine granite monument has been
erected in River Bend cemetery to Will
liam Smith, a former foreman at the
New England Granite Works, who was
killed about year ago by falling
derrick. The petition of the adminis-
traitor of the estate, made at the re-
quest of the children of deceased, to
the probate court, asking for the priv
ilege of erecting a monument at the
expense of the estate, was objected to
by Mrs. Smith. After several hear
ings the court allowed $3.50 for the
purpose.
Mr.. Smiths children wanted a monu-
ment to their father manufactured
from stone quarried under his direc-
ton, Just the kind he would probably
have selected, and favored the expense
being borne by the estate. in which
they are interested. The court decreed
otherwise, however, and they paid the
difference, and the Smith monument is
among the handsomest in the ceme
terry.
The monument Is all polished and is
made of three bases, die, plint and a
column surmounted with an urn, the
whole being is feet in height
