TR0LLEYMEN WAGE
 ELECTION CONTEST
Several Candidates in Field For Office of President of Local
 Union.

There will be- some doings among the union trolleymen during the next month, pending the election of officers, on the first Thursday in June. The several factions in the organization will begin to hold primaries within a short time and there promises to be several tickets in the field in opposi- ton to one which will carry the name or the present president, Anthony Wolfe
 Some of the men think Wolfe has been too conservative in his dealings with the company as a member of the joint conference board They be- heve he should have joined forces With the New Haven men in a de- mand for a big increase backed up by strike talk. Wolfe was of the opin- ion that Bridgeport was not in shape for a strike, and did not want a strike. He was willing this year tos accept a raise of two cents an hour.
 The members of the union recently voted on the question of accepting the two cent raise but the result of bal lot has not been announced yet al- though it is stated that many more have voted against the acceptance of vious meeting, when it was voted to accept the increase.
 The other candidates for reelection are Thomas Mclean, recording sec retary; William Pixley, financial sec- retary and Homer Blaekman, treasur- CT.
 When the election is held the polls will be open from a. m. and Aus tralian ballots will be used.

POLI'S

Patriotism and enthusiasm are cer- taanly on tap at Polls this week with the Old Soldier Ffddlers arousing the audience with their playing of old war tlme songs on their fiddles. and finish and Old Glory waving with every one m the audience rising to their feet. No such scenes have ever been wit messed at Polls theatre. and it shows the loyalty of our citizens to the flag they love. The spectacle of two old veterans of the Civil War who fought on the Union side and two Confeder- ate veterans brings back "reminiscences of the days of almost fifty years ago. Ihe act is the most novel one ever shown here and is a record breaker in the matter of applause.
 Speaking about applause. it can safe " be said that no bill has contained more applause winning acts than the one this week. the final week of vau- dev1ile. Bird Millman and her com pany in a positively sensational wire act with the work of Bird Millman herself positively brilliant. arouses the audience; Conlin, Steele and Carr in a snappy little act replete with real com eoy. splendid singing and piano play ing of high order: Evers- Wisdom Company in "Baseballitis'', a sketch built around baseball fan neglecting his wife. home and all else for the national game; The Hamlins in a corking dancing act: Wood Brothers in a thrilling performance on the Ro- man rings. and Horace Wright and Rene Dietrich in the best singing act of the season, all combine to make this weeks bill a. fitting farewell of the long vaudeville season.
 Special features have been arranged for the week. including "Newsboys' Night Thursday night at the theatre, and Grand Army Day" on Friday aft ernoon when the old veterans will at tend in a body out of respect for their comrades.

against itself, and vaccination does not protect against itself, how can vaccination possibly protect against smallpox?
 10-In what particular are pro-vac- cinist doctors unanimously agreed in regard to vaccination, except, first, that all should be vaccinated; second, that the dose should be the same in all cases and for all ages: third, that a fee should be collected for such vaccination and if not paid by the individual it should be paid by the town; fourth, that no harm ever comes from the operation, and that Tt is as safe to get vaccinated as it is to get shaved at a barber shop. and fifth, that punishment of some sort should be meted out to those who fail to get vaccinated as often as requir- ed2
 Failure to fully answer the above questions and to reach a satisfactory and unanimous agreement will require an answer to the following question:
 What right has anyone to attempt to enforce a law to compel a prac- tice-vaccina tion-under penalty, which cannot be, properly defined?
 With kind regards, I remain as ever your old comrade.

Inertia of the Nerves.

The researches and experiments of a French scientist have led him to the conclusion that the cerebral nervous system is incapable of perceiving more than an average. of ten separate inn pressions per second. After each ex- citation of the nerves a period of in- ertia follows, lasting about one-tenth of a second, and during this period a new impression cannot be made. Ac- cording to the investigations of this scientist person cannot make more than ten or at the most dozen sep arate voluntary movements of any kind in second, although the muscles, independently of the will, are capable of making as many as thirty or forty.

Clyde Fitch's clever comedy "Girls" has been selected by a majority of the patrons of Polls by vote as the most popular play for the opening produc- ton of the summer stock season, which takes place on next Monday afternoon, and the selection attests the good judgment of the Poli patrons. for it is the universal opinion that Girls" is the best comedy that the late Clyde Fitch ever wrote In fact so clever was it that it ran an entire season at Daly's Theatre, New York. was re- vived the following season. and at the present time there are four road com- panies touring the country with it and playing to immense business.

ALCOHOL IN MEDICINES.

Alcohol is the best known preserva- tive of medical compounds, and the average proprietary medicine contains from 1@o to 22Go, which is the small est possible amount to preserve the ingredients, while the average doc tors prescription contains from 25%o to 50%o.
 Such standard preparations as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound contain but 18Go, and they even put the Compound up in tablet form, which the over-scrupulous wom- an, who objects to alcohol in any de- gree, may use.

His Sarcastic AnoIoux.

A well known New Yorker figured in a quaint encounter with 'pan handler not long ago. The fellow had asked him for a dime, when the following conversation took place:
 You're a positive nuisance! Tues day you struck me for dime, Thurs day I gave you another, and now you have the nerve to ask for a third!''
 Excuse me, but are you the gent that gave me dime on this corner the day before yesterday?
 'eYes."
 "And now I've tackled you for the third dime?
 'sYes."

Both Sung.

Some time ago an eminent London physician requested an equally emi- nent surgeon to accompany him to see a distinguished but slippery patient. The patient was exceedingly polite to both the medical gentlemen, shaking hands with them and lowing them out of the room in the most affable man. ner. Soon after this professional visit the same physician called again on the surgeon, requesting him to accompany him to see another patient. On their way thither the surgeon observed, "I hope this patient will behave more liberally than the last did"
 'sWhy?' said the M. D. Did he not give you fee?'
 ''Not a shilling," was the reply.
 'Indeed~ said the eminent physi- clan, with toss of the head. "Why, he borrowed 2 guineas from me to give to your-Tit-Bits.
