THE NEW HAVEN ROAD.
fts Wage Increase Approximates s1,-
 50o,oO0 Year.

The wsge situation on the N Y, N H. & H lines has now reached a po- sir1on where 1t is possible to get a very close approximation of the total coS1 of the wage increases authorized in the last three months. and the in creased measure of income which re- cent advances in passenger rates may be expected to afford
 At prcsent the increase in wages is running at the rate of $40, ,0Go per week. O say $2.000.000 per annun. Of this amount s50O.00O represents additional wage expense due to in- crease in the number of employees. Th-s ire-E is likely to vary either way due to the course of traffic, and it is fair to assume that the new business winch this additional help is hired to handle will pay for its maintenance. Strictly Epeaking, therefore. the New Haven road has granted it's employees the rate of sS0,o00 per week
 The advance in passenger rates all ready iEaugurated, or to be inaug- urated. provide for additional income. ,I-eso.ooa per annum. This figure is arrived at by taking the increased rates ant applying them to exactly the same volume of traffic that was handled On any given part of the sys- tenn dur ng the fiscal twelve months to June 30- While naturally some what theoretical this calculation is the only method by which the matter
 
 New Haven officials expect that the increased use of mileage books will be stimrated to a considerable extent and that because of this fact and also sor-e possible loss in traffic, a total of sssa 900 increased revenue is all that ma be conservatively counted upon. This leaves upward of $500, 900 which the road must take from it's net earn znxs to make up the s1,500,000 in crease in the labor bill
 This is fairly respectable total equal to Cne-haIf per cent on the cap ital stock and, in connection with the present tendency toward decreased revenues. iE giving the management some concern as to exactly what re- suits may be counted upon for the current fiscal year. In general way the statement may be expressly made that President Mellen and his as- rf<-snts will be >abundantly satisfied .r -Ee New Haven earns during the 1s1a-11 fiscal year it's 8 per cent divi- danc-
 This is about the most that can be exacted and, on the other hand, the marageneut does not feel that the roa- win fall below that figure.

GAS FOR CHESHIRE.
To the Attic" with Oil Lamps and
 TaIIow Dips.

Walter Scott, genial proprietor of the Waverly jim is Cheshire. is far from being a pessimist. He has great faith in Cheshire and is always looking ahead to something new for the old town. His latest prediction has been an aviation school for high fliers, but that expected advancement hasn't aroused half the interest among the townspeople that has been occasioned by the announcement that the towE is to be supplied with gas. Yes every kid in town is tiealedA~ p6 death because he won't have to brifIg in any more wood till winter anyhow and every kitchen girl is tickled at the thoughts of being relieved of the daily task of filling the kerosene lamps.
 The Meriden Gas Light company, which is the father of all this unre- strained happiness expects to have the ill-sm cling but welcome mixture running into Cheshire houses by the end of this week Townspeonle are already preparing to relegate OH lamps and tal1ow dips to woodshed and attic, and it's a safe bet that Cheshire will be well illuminated the first night the gas is on, probably much better than after the first months bills come in.
 It is said the lighting company re- fused to furnish the gas unless it was permitted to erect over each jet large plscard reading:
 Don't Blow Out the Gas."~
 This. however, is declared by Cheshire folks to be a base libel.

BREED THEATER-
sWhat the Daisy Said" Biograph Fea-
 ture Picture.

The Bsograph picture at the Breed theater this week is entitled What the Daisy Said. and is one of the most beautiful scenic picture e-stories imag- inable- The story opens with two young girls in the midst of a wind tossed daisy field, each learning their fortune in the time-honored supersti- tious way. by pulling the daisy petals of to the recitation of well learned verse.
 The girls attempt to force their for tunes to turn the way that the daisy has said. but somehow, fortune is more than fckle- and just reverses the or der of things. which at first seem plezsanfer. but later are more disa- Ereeahle- The new lovers are proven 10 be treacherous in their attention, and the girls are glad to return to their old flames, much cres stfallen, and much happier and wiser.
 There is goodiy amount of comedy of the pure. high order, and every pat ron enjoys a good laugh at the ex- pense of the pretty girls and their frivolous actions.
 The Judgment of the Deep and The Bandits Wife are two others that call for the highest commendation of the public. while the monster educational reel. entitled Opening an Oyster, is the wonder of the public.
