Snake Mail Delivery
 Is Winsted's Newest

Winsted, Conn.,, Aug. 24.-'sWanted- Two large snakes; must be racers; the speedy blacksnake, preferred; reptiles must be broken to carry mail, J. G. Hall"
 This advertisement which appeared here last evening, excited the curios- ity of number, one of whom had a talk with MT. Hall. who runs stage be- tween Winsted and the Southern Berkshires.
 What do you want the snakes for" Mfr. Hall was asked "To carry the mail faster than I can," tersely replied the stage driver "I have been pestered long enoueh by city girls up country who com plained that the stage driver did not get their love missives from the cut ups down in the city to them fast enough so I have decided, if possible to establish a snake delivery for the 1ovesick ones-
 "A team of blacksnakes, thought ought to beat any automobile, airship or carrier pigeon for speed. Further more" continued Mr. Hall, there are no restrictions governing their speed on highways or in going cross lots, and I am confident the fair recipi- ents of mail by snake carriers would mt dare abuse the reptiles as they have me"

NEW HOTEL ON
 N. H. HOUSE SIT
Million DeIIaf Structure Planned by Syndicate Headed by Senator
 Frank $. Bntterworth.
MAY BE CALLED TIE TAFT

New Haven. Aug. 2.-Announcement is made in financial circles in this city that new million dollar hotel will be built in this city on the site of the New Haven house. by a syndicate in which |ex-Senator Frank S. Butterworth of the F. s. Butterworth Go. is interested. and that the new hotel may be named after President. Taft by permission from the chief magistrate of the coun- try. who has a very warm spot in his heart for all that pertains for the suc- cess of New Haven and for his old college tOwn-that of Yale university.
 The plans for the structure will be presented to the public within a few weeks. together with a sketch of the front of the building. and there will at that time. be shown a front eleva- tion of g structure on both Chapel and College streets that will attract atten- tion. throughout the state.
 The new hotel will be the largest in the state and will be of the most mod cry respect. lsl
 While large number of outside capitalists of importance are already interested in the undertaking and while they have secured an option on the property for the building of ho- tel there to cost from $Se00O0 to $1,000,- coo, yet every effort will be made to keep New Haven capitalists interested
 
 New Haven's much talked about and most important hotel at the very ad- vantageous point indicated.
 The story has been in circulation for some time that Landlord Moseley had been held up in his plans for the build ing of a greater New Haven house. by the overtures of the syndicate in ques- tion which have been going on for sew eral months past.
 In connection with the undertak- ing MT. Butterworth said that the plans would call for a hotel of brick and steel construction, of ornamental type. seven or more stories in height and that it would furnish much larger accommodations than the somewhat famous Hotel Elton in Waterbury, which has latteriy been held up as a shining mark in the hotel world in this state. It is believed that it will be far more comp1ste and commodi- ocs in every partfcular than Bridge ports new "Stratfieid.''
 Especial attention will be paid. in fitting out the hotel. to dining halls and club rooms for important socie- ties. and for the holding of conven- tion entertainments of state and even of national importance.
 The exact size of the new building has not yet been determined It has been suggested that the Quinnipiack club frontage coming toward the cen ter of the city on Chapel street, be in cluded in the new construction, giv- encompassed in a modern hotelA If this were done the new Taft hotel would have frontage on Chapel street of about no feet. while with ley now owns at the College street rear. the side length of the hotel on that street can be carried as far as 225 feet. This would afford a ground even if carried not above seven stor- F.

SUNDAY PRECEDING LABOR DAY
 c. L. U. TO ATTEND SERVICES AT SOUTH CHURCH
 Preparations are nearing completion for an observance of Labor Day on the rart of the workingmen of the city in conjunction with the churches and citizens A number of endorsements from city officials, pastors and physic- ians and laboripg men are being pre- pared and will soon be published.
 As at present outlined, the plans in clude the following features. The meeting will be held at the South Congregational church on Sunday ev- ening, Sept. 5, at 7.30, o'clock. The address of the evening will be given by the Rev Charles Sickle, superin- tendent of the Presbyterian depart ment of labor. MT. Sickle has with in recent years done more than any other person in the country toward bringing the church and the working men together. and will speak at this time as a workingman. having himself learned and followed the trade of ma chinist.
 It has been decided to devote the collection of the evening service to the support of the Anti-Tuberculosis work of the county. This cause appeals so directly to the sympathy and interest of the public that a generous offering is looked for. Mayor Lee has been re- quested to introduce the speaker and has signified his willingness to do so.

 The opening performance of 'The Squaw Man" by the Poli Stock Go. was most appreciatively received by it's utmost capacity last evening" The story, one of self-sacrifice from be- ginning to end. is filled with pathos- Captain James Wynnegate, just re- turned from the battlefield in India, has brilliant future before him, for his noble work on the field had gained for him worldwide fame. But just as he is preparing for his career a climax in his cousins life ruins his plans.
 Henry wynnegate Jin's cousin, who had always led a riotous life, freely used the money of a relief fund which had been entrusted to him and Cap tain James. When an accounting was demanded, no funds were forthcoming, and James. for the love of Diana whom Henry had married, braveiy consented to leave England and allow the stain of crime to rest upon his name. He received from his cousin a statement of the true state Of affairs which might be used should Henry break his contract. tsls
 We next find Jim on a ranch in the Wild West where he has assumed the name of Jim Carston. Sufferings and rrivation have been his lot. yet he never allowed a complaint to pass his lips.

Coming back for one last look at her child, she crept noise, lessly into the hut. seized pistol ana
