Testimonial to Amtrican GraphophOne Company's Inventor at Completion of lis Tweaty Years of Service.

MT. Thomas H. Macdonald was the guest of honor at a dinner Monday evening at the home of President Eas- ton. of the American Graphophone Company, at Arcola- ". J.
 The chief officers of the org anization had been invited to celebrate iMr. Mac donalds twenty years with the com pany and the remarkable progress and importance of the industry which he may be said to have made pos sible.
 The talking machine could never have attained the standing of a true musical instrument without Mr. Mac donald's patented inventions under which not only the Columbia. but all other talking machines and phono- graphs are constructed. He entire time is now being devoted to he de- velopment and perfecting of certain devices and improvements whi eh are likely to prove as vital to the indus try as any he has produced befo e.
 Night work Is still a part sf the program at the big plant whe e MT. Macdonald sees the thousandfo Id re- production of his inventions.

STAMFORD.

There is no opposition on the part of Dr. l.. J. Beardsley. as has been surmised in some quarters. to the lay ing of a double trolley track on Bar mum avenue. Mir. Beardsley said yes terday that what he should object to would be the tearing up of the street. as 1t now Is. and which has cost the town such a large sum. unless the trolley company would agree to leave 1t in as good a condition as they find 1t. He wants a good macadauized drive or road way leach side of the trolley track. and believes that the company should not be allowed to dis turb the roadbed unless under contract to restore 1t to perfect condition with out additional expense to the town. This Is a sensible and equitable view of the matter. and If a town meeting is called to consider the question as seems probable. doubtless the good sense of the taSrayers will cause them to gree with MT. Beardsley Let the selectmen be instructed to insist uron these conditions. and make a contract to that end

 KNOCK OUT VOTING
Special from united Press,

London. Dec. 15.-"We will make voting impossible" Mrs. Despard of the Women's Freedom League. Our enemies, the men, have paid us the compliment of wondering at our ingenuity In militant tactics. We will show them before the coming general election is over that they have not guessed the extent of our resources for trouble making" Miss ,Ohrista abel PanShurst of the National women's Social and Political Association.
 These expressions by two of Eng lands leading militant suffragettes in dicate that the coming election will be fraugh- with the greatest excite ment and danger and that an attempt will be made wherever possible to destroy ballot boxes.
 The sunragettes have found an i'm provement upon the corrosive acid bomb with which they destr oyed many ballots at a recent special cleo ton at Bermondsey and nearly bind ed an election officer. They have en- listed the services of a large nunber of men who have pledged themselves to throw the bombs inside the foxes to which of course, the women will not be able to gain admission.
 Mrs. Despard's organization Is con- sidered the most reckless of the sixteen which have headquarters in London what extreme 1t will go after the dec laration that 1t will make voting im- possible"
 The suffragettes will concentrate their efforts in the districts where the nominees. mostly Liberals, have shown themselves hostile to the wom- ems movement.
