.sYou certainly joined those that were doing so and were near enough to do so. You got as close to him as you could and I thought saw you shake the speakers hand.
 "No, sir; you did not. I never did it. I was just passing by. It is an in famous lie. Let me never see you again, never, never again.
 The world do move, when even Bulke1ey can become incensed over the report of so simple a thing as the shaking of the hand of the speak CT of the national House of Repre- sentatives So great a burden then has MT. Cannon become politically to his friends, manual contact with him is presumably thought of nonentous political effect even in staid and solid Connecticut. No reactionary even there can afford to have it known that he has been so bad as to bow to the speaker. There is some surm1se here that Senator Bulkeley would have a fit and sue som ebody for libel if the social records should be look ed up to show how many times the senator has entertained the speaker at dinner.

fsnecial from United Press

( New Haven, April 6.-At the request of the editors of the Yale News, off, cial organ of Yale University. Attor- ney General Wickersham today gives his views on the young college man who would enter American politics
 .eThe most important thing, said Wickershan, flor the young man who intends entering politics, is to acquire a complete Knowledge of his own country,s history. In addition, would advise the study Of all modern languages, especially Spanish The study of economics is also important. A course at a college law school would of course be advantageous but not in dispensab1e.
 Attorney Wic4ershan points out an "easys way for entering the political field when he says, elf a chance is given to go as private secretary to some prominent politician in Washing ton it affords a valuable insight into the processes of government
 In Attorney General Wickersham's opinion the college man is an eyer increasing factor in politics.

 John O'Brien an elderly knight of the road, who has been spending the winter months at the town farm, near Danbury and who was on his way to New Haven, via the tie route, came to grief and almost death Saturday morning when he was struck by the work train just north of the Winni- pauk station.

 His coat burned practically off his back, was the experience Of Edward Wnmot of Sound Beach last week. MT. Wilmot was fighting a grass fire He gart's garage, thinking it contained water. In the excitement he did not notice that there was, gasoline in the pail. As hee ran, the contents spilled over his coat and when he got near the fire spark blown against the coat set it on fire. Two or three of the drefighters belabored MT Wilrnot with brooms until the fire was beat out.

ECONOMY OF WATER.

Tho rapid progress of the times has led to the adoption of the automo- bile for fire, ambulance and police purposes: horse-drawn appliances could not make the speed deemed necessary or advisable. It is the Farmers desire to suggest an exten- sion 6f the plan.
 Tn years agone, street-sprinkIing carts wet down the strets with great thor0ughness; indeed, complaints of an excess of moisture were made. In- venfors succeeded in devising a sprinkler warranted to so lessen the spray that momentary exposure to sun and wind would leave a dry sur
 But this achievement is now dwarf ed by the trolley sprink1ers. With suitable speed, they are enabled to effect such an economy of water drops as would gladden. the hearts of water companies possessing made Quate supplies
 This gives hint to the city's wa terrs rsprinkling contractors. They &have but to replace their horse-dfawn carts with autos of sufficient power to develop high speed, and the prob lem of the greatest possible area. with the least possible use of water is at once solved. It would even be pos sihIe to eclipse the trolley record which, according 10 some observers, Is about one drop of water to each square foot of surfa ce.

TAFT CLUB UNDER WAY TO STRENGTHEN
 REPUBLICAN, PARTY

New Haven, April 6.-Defnite steps toward organizing and developing the Taft cluh into an organization repre- sentative of clean repub1icanism are now under way. Under the direction of President Frank S. Butterworth letters have been sent out, enclosing membership applications
 Mir Butterworth states that the club is intended to clean out the abuses of machine and boss government, and then to strengthen the. regular repub- lfcan party when purged of these evils, which he considers the first step that must be taken. The club is affiliated with the National Republican league. It is to work outside the regular re- publican organization. but will not conflict if any way with the Young Mems Republican club of this city. Or any other organization working for good government and clean republi- canism.

Senator Bulkeley who some weeks ago was credited with a belief that Gannonism had not lost popularity in Connecticut, is now very angry over the report that he condoIed with the Speaker over the rebuke administer ed by the Democratic and Insurgent members of the House. A Washing Son letter. to the Boston Advertiser says
 Curious and hysterica1 days these when even that ancient reactionary, Senator Bulkeley, becomes incensed at any public mention of any association of his with Speaker Cannon. The give dinners in honor of the speaker of the House, but he is now a candi- date for reelection and apparently there must be no mean number of Insurgents in Connecticut when the senator thinks he has been hurt somehow by having it told in Con Mecticut that he shook the hand of Cannon, when recently he had that left-handed compliment bestowed up- on him in which the House refused to declare vacant the office of the spEahership.
 It will be recalled that at the close of that memorable Saturday many the exciting incidents of the day closed around the speakers desk to congratulate the speaker and among those seen in the number and cer- tainIy very close to the speaker was Senator BuIkeley
 It seemed as if everybody who had surrounded the speaker shook his hand and congratulated him and cer- taln1y the senior senator from Con- necticut at least looked pleased with the final result, and the correspond ent for a Connecticut paper teIe- grapfed on that Bu1ke1ey had done something.
 The correspondent and the senator recently met and the senator said:-
 Go away I do not want to see you any more. Don't you ever come to my office again
 Why what is the matter ?'' in 1uired the correspondent.

Abandoned farms in Connecticut are now. it is said, 1essening rapidly in number, and at least one section which formerly headed the list, has not enough now to supply theA de- nand Many farms. advantageously located. have been purchased by city residents for use as summer homes; others have been taken, by what may be called living ng-earners. In the lat ter case, the reasons are many, among them the high prices of farm pro- ducts and the desire to escape the popu1ation-conge of the cities.
 Most Of the living enter the milk, butter, fruit, berry and vegeta able-producing industries, and some have taken up the old industry main trouble is that the soil is in many places worn out through in- suf11cient fertilization and unwise choice of crops. This can be rem e1ieds and is being remedied in some towns If the sewage of the cities could be utilized, the problem would be easily and cheap1y solved. Amer lean Inventive ability should be equal to the solution of this matter. De- odorizaffon, expression of 1iquids cosnpressIon of solids, are all possi- b1e-there remains but the problem of collection, and this should not be am unconduerabIe difficulty.
