HISTORIC SWORD
In Custody of the Daughter of Lieu
 tenant Truesdell.

Mrs. A. l.. Bradley of No. 20 Bab- cock street, daughter of the late First Lieut. Charles A. Truesdell. of the First Connecticut Heavy artillery is the custodian of her fathers sword and sash. Lieutenant Truesdelr served four years in the war and was one of four sons of Augustus Truesdell of Rockville, who went to the front, serv- ing in different regiments. Alfred Truesdell died in Libby prison and was buried in an unknown grave. Martin Truesdell lost his right arm at the battle of Fair Oaks and died in New Haven hospital Harlin Truesdell, d mere striphng of a boy when he went out, lived to come home, as did also Lieutenant Truesdell, the oldest of the brothers, who in the last year of ser vice was adjutant on the staff of Gen eral Abbott and was at the taking of Fort Fisher and Richmond, Va.
 Lieutenant Truesdell had a splendid military career, wearing his well earn ed sword with honor during the heavy siege that the First Connecticut Heavy artillery vas engaged in in 1864. It was during this siege that Lieutenant Truesdell narrowly escaped death. He had been resting in his tent with his knapsack under his head for a pillow and went outside for few moments, when a shell came into the tent, burn ing through his knapsack and effects. It was one of the providential escapes from death in the history of the Civil war.
 Lieutenant Truesdell was the tent mate of the late Chief George A. Bill of the Hartford police force for the first three years in service. They owned little house with just room for two at Fort Scott, Alexandria, which was very comfortable quarters as com pared with some of the soldiers homes of the First Heavy while waiting for action. Lieutenant TrEesdell, after ar irving home, was in. correspondence with General Abbott and Governor Buckingham and left autograph letters of these two noted persons that re still in possession of Lieutenant Trues- delfs widow They bear testimony of honorable service. Lieutenant Trues- dell died June 22, 1898. at Meriden- Hartford Courant.

The public acts of 1909 in regard to the bounty on shade trees has done away with all provision for the care by the state of shade trees planted previous to June 23, 1909, when the law went into effect.

 For all shade trees planted after June 23, 1909, and under the hmita- tions and conditions make the tree so planted at least one and one-half inches in diameter measured two feet from the ground Permission must have been received from the selectmen as to the location of such trees, and a true, statement of the number of trees, their variety. and the name of the town, the road or street and the date of planting, must be attested by the tree warden.

BIG TWO MASTER
Loading with Railroad Ties at East
 Haddam.

The Oliver Ames, said to be the largest two -masted schooner in the world is at East Haddam, loading with 10000 railroad ties at the wharf of c. E. Warner. Some idea of the size of the vessel is given by the cargo she carries. She can take a larger freight than the four -masted Frances Hyde that used to run from Maine to the Benevenue quarry. The Ames when loaded draws IA feet of water. On account of low water in the river she cannot take a full' cargo at river points and does not load below the 11-foot line. The vessel is commanded by Captain Morgan, a veteran of the civil war.

A NOVEL VOTING CONTEST.
The Question, Who is the most Popular
Young Lady of Paonia to be Settled
by Votes.

A novel way of opening cam
paign of advertising is inaugur-
ated by the introduction of vot-
ing contest, to decide who is the
most popular young lady of Pao-
MIA. The idea is a good one, and
the management of the Midsum-
mer Amusement Festival, that is
to be presented at the opera
house for three nights. beginning
Thursday, Auugst 26, announce
as the prize diamond set watch,
with twenty-five year guarantee.
1t is a valuable prize, and is one
of the many pretty watches that
P. c. Curtis handles. The votes
will decide the debatable ques-
ton. The young lady who re-
ceives the most votes will secure
the coveted prize. To each re-
served seat ticket is coupon en-
titling the purchaser to one vote
in the contest.
The performances will be pre-
sented under the professional di-
rection of James Phelan Cuddy.
and will call into service the var
led talents of the members of the
New York Star Company. The
Paonia Fruit Growers Band which
is interested financially in the
performances will also contribute
its services. Many novelties
will he introduced in the produc
tion of the latest New York sue

The money trust never sleeps
but is at work while the people
sleep. Although few people are
aware of it there is a we'll defined
scheme on foot to retire $346, ,OOO-
900 of greenbacks and $6OO,OOO,-
600 silver and substitute national
bank notes for these amounts.
That would give the national
banks absolute control of the
currency, which could be con-
tracted or expanded to suit the
schemes of stock gamblers and
other operators in high finance"
and the. people pay the bill. A
monster remonstrance is being
prepared for presentation to Pres
ident TAFT when he visits the
Transmissippi Congress at Denver
in September. The people gener-
ally are not alive to the schemes
of the money trust, they sleep on
their rights, but these kings of
high finance" are gradually
tightening their grasp On the cur
rency of the country. Unless
there is an awakening very soon
the American people and all their
industries will be tied hand and
foot. Absolute control of the
currency will very nearly accom-.
plish that purpose.

receipt You think the tax on
your receipt is large, but you pay
more than that indirectly. Every
article you use, except what you
produce on your farm, has a very
substantial part of its price ad.
ded because of the So called PRO

doubt. The people have been
