No Time to Raise Pay.

One remedy proposed for the evils of a long session of the legislature was annual sessions, but that appears to have been abandoned and in it's place has come one from former Governor Woodruff in which he recommends an Increase in salary from $500 to $500 with one round trip ticket to Hartford. At the present state of feeling the people of the state would be more apt to reduce the salary instead of in- crease it. It is unfortunate that the general assembly should have dropped so much in public estimation. There will, however. be a body elected, per- haps next year. that will remedy some of the evils of which loud complaint is now being heard and some of the forces now active around the capitol will be deprived of their present pow er All this can be accomplished by the election of men free and likely to continue free from certain Influence There are many good men in the legis- lature now. men of undoubted integ- rity, but despite this somehow busi- ness has not run smoothly since the start.-New Britain Herald.

Plenty of cementins.

In his report to the Grand Army Of
 the Republic. at it's national encamp-
 ment at Salt Lake City, Utah, last
 Thursday, Henry M. Nevius, the re-
 tiring commander in chief, spoke of
 the great cordiality With which he had
 been greeted on his tour of the south
 ern departments. of the Grand Army,
 and expressed the opinion that were
 it not for those who did not participate
 in the great struggle, but who are still
 laboring to keep alive the lost cause,
 there would be no difficulty in cement
 ing the bonds of union between the
 north and the south." But how many
 times have these bonds to be cemented
 and who is "laboring to keep alive the
 lost cause" and what would anybody
 do with it if it were kept alive? Near
 ly every year in some part of the
 country at some gathering or other or old soldiers the cementing ceremony
 takes place. and as for the younger people of the south. they do not seem to care very much for the lost cause, or any other cause as matter of fact. We fancy that General Nevius has not kept up with progress of his country
 during the last few years. Did not
 the hero of San Juan boast constantly of his southern blood, and claim in many of his orations that the gray was entitled to equal consideration with 1 the blue? Didn't Joseph Wheeler, and
 Fitz Lee, and Calbraith Butler, and l William c. Oates. and a large num- | Der of other gallant soldiers of the | confederate armies respond to the call | of their country in the great strug- | gle with Spain Il years ago? Wasn't l that cementing enough to satisfy al- most any reasonable appetite for such | advertisement of our loyalty to the old

Supposing the man who was mad because his chauffeur was fined for driving an automobile too fast through the center of this city should attempt to carry out his threat to fix this town" and should bring the matter up before the Automobile club of America, what would the club say to him? Would it commend him for his conduct and tell him that he was just the kind of man the club was organ ized to protest? Or would it say
 They served you right. You had no business to drive through a busy town at a pace that could be even suspected of being dangerous. It is just such men as you who excite prejudice against decent motor drivers. If it weren't for few like you the rest of us might go through the country with out having occasion to be ashamed Of ourselves and without feeling that mankind in general hated us. You needn't bring your complaint to us. We have not the least sympathy with it. Rather we feel like commenting the police and court of Waterbury for giving one more reckless man re- buke and other recllless8 men a warn ing and thereby improving the chances for reasonable automobile owners to lead a comfortable and self respecting life"
 If the Automobile club of America should get an opportunity and should deal with this person in this way 1t would do the whole automobile cause a good turn.-Waterbury American.

INCUBATOR BABY
 MUST BE BROUGHT TO COURT
On Wednesday When Judge Field will
 Pick Out Its Mother.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 29.-Another habeas corpus obtained in the case of Marian Bleakely the incubator baby of the St. Louis worlds fair. was is- sued t.:day.
 Judge Porter Field ordered Chief of Police Snow to appear with the child in court on Wednesday wien the court will decide whether the child belongs to her real mother Mrs. J. J. Bleake- ly of Topeka. or Mrs. James G. Bar clay of Buffalo, the woman who adopt ed the batby and now is held on a charge of kidnapping the child.
 Attorneys for Mrs. Barclay procured the order today declaring that Mrs. Barclay was the legally adopted moth CT of the child and that the mother hood of Mrs. Bleakely had not been proved conclusively.
 This latest fight for custody of the child is entirely apart from the kid mapping charge. No matter what the outcome of the kidnapping case Mrs. Barclay. her attorneys say will con- tinue her fight for the child

Take a Sunshine Tablet For
 Thy StOmach's Sake

There never was such a marvellous prescription for stomach distress ana indigestion as Mi-o-na.
 No doctor ever wrote better one; it's doubtful if any doctor ever will. It's so good that The Lee & Osgood Co. says money back if 1t doesn't cure.
 A woman in Maine calls Mi-o-na the sunshine prescription because she has seen so many sour, miserable aggravating dyspeptics turned into happy, cheerful, sweet. human beings in few days by taking Mi-o-na.
 The stomach is responsible for three fourths of the nervousness and half the misery of the world. A wom- an can have a first-class stomach and yet be miserable if she has bus band who is a nervous dyspeptic
 If you have indigestion, belching or gas, heaviness after eating, drowsy sensation after eating, sour stomach or any miserable stomach disturbance the prescription called Mi-o-na will put you right, and bring sunshine into your life in q week.
 large box of Mi-o-na tablets cost only 50 cents at The Lee X Osgood Co. and by leading druggists every where. They are small and easy to swallow.

Aerial Torpedoes,

The idea of an aerial torpedo seems, at the present time, more practical than the notion of dropping bombs or delivering broadsides from flying ma chimes. The war department is being besieged by inventors who have turned to this method of aerial warfare. The theory of the aeroplane is taken ad- vantage of for the proposed Notation and propulsion of projectiles through the air, and the claim that such pro- jectiles would be vastly cheaper than the ammunition for heavy guns, while the operation of attack would be much simpler, is reasonable enough. Never theless. there is no more likelihood that the use of these projectiles would result in the abandonment of great guns than that such will ever be the effect of the submarine or surface tor pedo. The aerial torpedo would be available for attack against ships upper works, but would not menace vital parts If the idea is successfully carried out it does not appear that a revolution in armanments or the tac- tics of sea warfare will result.-Provi- dence Journal.
