THE AMERICAN BOY.

It is doubtful if there is another such lively and ingenious boy as the American boy, for it is not strange for him to get out a patent before he is 20, or to invade the stock market and
 make thousands before he can vote. He Is a hustler, and in his experi- mental work with the wireless telegra- phy he has of late been annoying the government. and is doing so in every coast state along the Atlantic. One of these boys distinguished himself the other day. as the story runs, as one of the coasting steamers was on her way up the Atlantic coast the wireless operator became i'll and was forced to leave his post. A IS year old boy who was passenger on the ves- Hel, volunteered his services, saying he had run a station of his own in the back yard of his Florida home. His offer was thankfully accepted, and the little operator more than made good.
 This is where the boy who had run a wireless plant in his back yard had become efficient enough to have taken Jack Binns' place had the opportunity offered. The American boy may seem to be a nuisance in his impetuosity and ''unwarranted" exploiting of sci ence. but he is a great success in an emergency

CITY PLAYeRouNps.

The suggestion of Mayor Landers in his annual message that a play ground association be formed in New Britain is good idea" says The Her aid of that city, "and one which is receiving much consideration just now. At present the work is under the direction of the Womans club at the Burritt school and by the mayor himself on his own property on Win ter street, which, by the way, he has offered to the city for playground pur- poses. The work is now carried on satisfactorily, but 1t is being done at private expense and that cannot con- tinue. The value of playgrounds is well established and their care and management ought to be under the direction of an association operating in harmony with the school board. Under such an arrangement the work could be easily extended. There are a number of cities in this country which are expending large sums for playground purposes and all report that it is a profitable investment
 The municipal playground is ne- cessity. and since vacant lots are to be had for a small rental in every district In a city, there is no real reason for neglecting to provide Such a place for the police bounded boys who play ball in the streets and ac- cidentally break windows and do other injury to private property. Our boys are not more than half as bad as they seem, and considering the general lack of interest in their individual welfare 1t is surprising that they are no worse. The man who forgets he was a boy once and makes himself a menace and a nuisance to all the boys in his neighborhood is not expected to en- dorse anything of this kind; but the man who realizes that the better boy Is to make the better city and the greater country does not hesitate to approve it.

CIRCULATION
rAE HORN rAAr SCREAMS.

The automobile horn could be made musical as well as the whistle of steamers and great manufacturing es- establishments and there is every req son why 1t should be improved in tone and used with more discrimination. The constantly footing horn. as the Ansonia Sentinel intimates, is the an- noying evidence of fresh man at the wheel A well-seasoned driver never acts like c child with a new play thing. He doesn't honk at the pedes- trian, the trolley car the railway train, the vagrant dog or mischievous hicle and honks as he passes one. IL is not honk. honk, honk on the crowded street and honk, honk honk on the country highway. He doesn't make himself a procesnion of discordanc noise
 The greatest nuisance in the hands of c tyro Is the siren horn which in a prolonged screech sounds like the yell of human being or beast in agony. A more head-wrecking, nerve splitting sound could not be invented; and if would not be tolerated on To- comotive engine, a steam fire engine or a manufactory, and why should it be permitted to be the pIaything of fools regardless of its effect upon the community
 The law ought to prohibit a few horns and regulate the public use of all the others.

will Marriage is a lottery, anyway, boys, but one in which you generally win a capital prize. The Rev. MT. McBeaser is here now and he won't be tomorrow. Let the ceremonies pro- ceed.'
 Nobody said nothin', so the cere- monies proceeded. went on my va- cation that night. Went to Washing ton to talk things over with Taft. We had a good talk, too. He agrees with my views a heap. When I got back anengineer jumped on me first thing.
 say he yelled, the crew on the Sidonia section ain't worth 6 hang yours. There in the dark the consign- ments of wives got mixed and the weddin' upset everything. The Maine men married the Spanish women and the school teachers married the Span iards. Them Spanish women have taught their Yankee husbands to dance. Now, carried away by the to fandangoes every night and so they are all wore out and no good next
 But them school teachers can't have hurt the Spaniards.' says.
 "'Cant, heyT roared the engineer. You know yourself that Spain is an Illiterate country, and them proud tedCnGrS cant pear LO udV9 LH6I nus bands so ignorant. So they've been educatin' 'em till the poor fellers gifts so tired sittin' up nights studyin' spellin' and doin' sums that they're all wore out and can't work next day
 "'But, 'cordin' to your reckonin',' I says, the Martinique darkies didn't git mixed and so thy're married to each other So they're all right
 They ain't,' said the engineer gft- tin madder all the time. Martinique is a little island where everybody knows everybody and there aint noth- in new in life, no new experiences. Them Martinique people Is so mad seeIn' how they didn't git in on mar ryin' somebody from somewhere else and have something new to talk about and think about-new kind of vfctuals and new experiences-they're so mad and sore at each other that they sit up nights pawin' and reproachin' and re- villn' each other and next day the men is SO tired and wore out that they ain't no good

SIDE ISSUES IN LAW.

The last issues in the Thaw case show that the wealthy are not only mulcted by attorneys at law for the defence they make for criminals; but also for the damaging facts which they get suppressed. It will never be exactly known how many thousands of dollars have been expended in de- fense of Harry Thaw, but the latest issue shows that they expect liberal pay for every kind of service
 One of the attorneys for Thaw is suing the homicide's mother for forty thousand dollars, which sum, he claims, was expended to suppress facts about the slayer's ordinary behavior when at large which were calculated to bring the family name into disrepute.
 And on the other hand just imagine what a legal sleuth with money might bring out in the way of evidence to show that the victim in such a case richly merited the nntimely and dis graceful end to which his alleged con duct brought him.
 There are . lot of side issues and extra charges when these great crim- inal cases against the rich are being tried.

WORTH REPRODUCING EVERY
 WHERE.

The people who steal plants and pluck cherished flowers from front beds and borders are always numer- ous enough to be annoying to flower growers and fanciers, and some of the offended citizens get into a great rage over it, while others take 1t more phil- osophically. A western man, who had his flower bed wrecked in a night sent this card for publication in the local paper:
 "To the person or persons who gath cred and destroyed my tulips and hya- cinths last night, l have this to say: am very sorry for what you have done, but it will be far greater in- jury to you than to me. If you have particle of respect for yourself you cannot pass my place or see me but you will think of it. trust that no one will ever be mean enough to treat you in the same way"
 There is burning truth in these words. This conduct makes a sneak of a person because he is conscious of his own meanness; and what price that Is to pay for petty. i'm defensible act. The man who consid- CTS the cost of such conduct to him. self would regard the price as being too high. No doubt many of these people have a deep feeling of shame and sorrow over their thoughtless depredations.

HE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
DEAL IN WIVES.


 One night when I was boss on the | Sidonia section of the Panama canal" l said the thin man who sat by the l lodging house stove, T was. layin' awake thinldn' how I could help Taft make a success of that great enter prise. We had lot of Maine lumber jacks that summer workin' tempora- l ry. Winter is the busy season in a lumber country. They was a fine lot of workers, and it seemed too bad to have 'em quit. I says to myself that the way to git 'em to stay was to make homes for 'em there. There ain't nothin' equal to wife for anchorin' a man.
 Says I to myself Why not git wives for them Maine fellersT Then l thought. why not push 1t still further and git wives for the Spaniards and the Martinique darkies who are work in on the job? They was lonely, tired of boardin' house chuck, and I knew if I once gnt the thought of gittin' wives started 1t would be contagious. So went around and got orders from the boys an cash deposits to cover cost of securin' and transportln' wives.
 You'll have homes, said 1. Mar riage is a lottery and probably you'll each draw a good wife. Nobody or nothin' can ever fool a person worse than his own judgment
 Il got plenty or OruerS. MdTT1dBS fees is outrageous in Panama and so I got the Rev. George McBeaser, a friend of mine, to make a wholesale price. marvin 'em all in a bunch. In summer school teachers is unemployed. so for my Maine men I advertised for teachers. They was easier to git than girls that had a job Them Maine men was well brought up feilers, didn't play cards, dance. nor nothin'.
 Tn two months I had most of my orders filled for all nationalities and I planned to have all the girls arrive in Colon the same day and come out to our place the same evenin', to be mar ried all to once to save marriage fees.
 There was a terrible tropical thun- derstorn the night them girls got off at our station. The electric lights was out and we didn't have nothin' but candles, and few of them. Couldn't hardly see nothin'. No chance for go- in around and ptckin' and being pick ed.
 There ain't no accommodations for lot of single girls in this camp says I. and if them girls are shipped back to Colon tonight the fellers there can marry 'em for all of me and probably

esttIno the Jaek.on. Mixed.

English collectors greatly prize what they call "the Stonewall Jackson" set in copper lustre. When in doubt as to finding the original, they will be great ly aided by remembering what one English authority" tells them, that Stopewan Jackson was "one of the confederate generals In the American army during the war of 1915. and showed his prowess during the success full defense of New Orleans. He after wards became president of the United States" Guided by this nice derange- ment of epitaphs, it will make no dif- ference to the collectors that the given name of the General Jackson to whom the set Is dedicated was Andrew.

Farm Talk All "Rot.D

Now that Bwana Tumbo" is away in Africa, a little more liberty than usual is being taken with some of his pet projects. Uncle Joe" Cannon de- clares that the country life commits sion Is a fiat failure and that the re- port 1t compiled is pure rot" There are a great many people who never saw either Uncle Joe" or "Bwana Tumbo'' who came to the same con- clusion 'ong ago, but to Uncle Joe" belongs the distinction of putting the thing in circulation.
 The country life commission project was theory pure and simple, and there wasn't a member who knew any more about the practical work of farming than thousands upon thou sands of those engaged in that pursuit and some not even as much, and their report contains nothing that every sensible farmer in the country did not know before.-New Britain Herald.

virninia the First.

Virginia is the first of the confeder- ate states to take definite steps toward erecting a memorial at Gettysburg. A state commission, headed by the gover- nor, is in charge of the plan. Since Gettysburg is on northern soil, the southern states have regarded 1t as a local rather than a national possession and they have quite properl-- devoted themselves to marking southern bat tlefelds and southern scenes of historic interest. But all the states whose men gave their lives at the crucial contest of the war might we'll honor them selves by monuments at Gettysburg Alleghany News.

A Defective Law.

Joseph Parsons of Lakeville writes to the New York Times to say that the Connecticut automobile law Is defec- tive In that 1t fails to put limit to the speed of a machine when passing another. He says the rate should be placed at 15 miles an hour. With this provision he thinks the Connecticut law would be nearly perfect, 'Fbut without such provision 1t becomes al- most impossible to prevent the dis comfort and danger of rapid passing. This Is the real and crucial point at which the public as well as sane mo- torists wish protection.r
