Battle of Bacteria

LONDON, Dec. 10.-One of the most
interesting and instructive cinemato-
graph shows ever witnessed. in the
shape of a fierce battle between an
army Of phagocytes and several million
spirochaeta, was given in London the
other evening by DIR. c. Levaditi of
the Pasteur Institute, Paris. before the
Royal Institute of Public Health.
The phagocytes, which are the de-
tenders of the human body, were seen
in the living pictures fighting against
the spirochaeta, which are the bacte-
ria of a malignant disease. These Gin
ematograph films illustrated the bac-
terial warfare which takes place inside
the human body and excitement was
added to the contest owing to. the fact
that the audience knew that victory for
the spirochaeta meant death to the
human victim.
In the first few pictures the phago-
cytes had rather a bad time of it in
their battle with the invaders, and, like
general commanding his forces,
Doctor Levaditi cried: See! They
weaken following with his pointer
the combatants appearing on the screen,
like weird creatures conjured up in a
nightmare. Again, still more tragic
ally as a phagocyte fell outnumbered
before a force of horrid shaped bac-
terra, he cried, See! 1t is dead,'

PARIS. Dec. 1o.-A new cinemato-
graph camera to photograph the flight
Of bullets has been invented by Profess
sor Marcy Of Paris. A picture can be
taken in the ten millionth part of a

Remarkably animated photographs
have been obtained, which show what
happens when a self-loading pistol is
fired and give the precise effect of the
explosion of the cartridge of powder.
Five hundred pictures are taken in
a tenth of a second; yet they are so
clear that many valuable processes can
be photographed in this brief time and
investigated at leisure.
The method has been kept a secret,

. BLAME CROSBY BOYS
Thefts From Yale Dressing Rooms Laid at Doors of
 Waterbury H. s. Players

The disappearance of merchandise to the value of $25 from one of the dressing rooms used by football play CTS at Yale field last Saturday morn ing when the New Haven high school eleven defeated the Crosby high school team from Waterbury, result ed in an investigation, as a result of which the blame for the thefts has been placed on the shoulders of boys on the Crosby team. No action will be taken against the Waterbury boys at present. Saturday morning the confectionery and tobacco dealer placed all of his goods in one of the rooms which chanced to be the one used by the Crosby high school team for dressing purposes. The dealer re- turned to find that some one had played havoc with his wares. Choco- latess cigars, cigarettes (the twenty five cent kind. especially and tobacco of all kinds had disappeared.

ways be asked why they should re- sist or question that exercise of pow CT which is so fair in it's object. SD plausible and patriotic in appearance, and which has the public good alone confessedly in view.
 Human beings, we may be assured, will generally exercise power when they can get it; and they will exer : else it most undoubtedly in popular governments, under pretences of pub lie safety or high public interest.
 There are men in all ages who mean to exercise power usefuI1y; but who mean to exercise it. They mean to govern well; but they mean to govern. They promise to be kind masters; but they mean to Nbe mas ters. They think there need be but little restraint upon themselves. Their notion of the public interest is apt to be quite closely connected with their own exercise of authority. They may not, indeed, always understand their own motives. The love of power may sink too deep in their hearts for their own scrutiny, and may pass with themselves for mere patriotism and beneVo1ence.

 FOR FLETCHER'S c A s TO RIA LYNN w. WILSON
 IN TOWN Democratic Candidate for Congress Speaking at Factories
0Danbury NeWs)


 Lynn w.. Wilson, Democratic candi- date for Congress, Fourth district, was visitor in this city today. MT. Wilson is a Bridgeport newspaper man we'll known throughout Connec- ticut for years as a progressive and earnest advocate of Legislation to promote the welfare of the people
 MT. Wilson has adopted some uni que methods in making his campaign and he has already visited some fif- teen towns in his district, which com prises about fifty cities and towns, in Fairfield and Litchield counties.
 MT. Wilson carries a supply of cards in which he announces the Leg islation he will favor, if elected, and copies of his speeches makes a rapid .but thorough canvass in the small towns, personally placing his ntera- ture in the hands of the voters He and expects to meet 12,0OO more.
 In the cities his practice is to ap- pear at the factories in the morning and announce a fifteen minute talk on the issues at the noon hour. This enables him sometimes to make three speeches a day.
 MT. Wilson arranged for some fac tory addresses here today, speaking during the noon hour. In his re- marks he said that as a result of his talks with many voters, he believed that the tide was settling more strong 1y than in many years toward the Democratic ticket. He said that he believed that a large amount Of his strength would come from the Repub- licans who were resentful because all the members of the Connecticut dele gation in Congress voted on March Is 1909, for the so-ca1led Fitzgerald resolution which continued in Can non's hands his tremendous power ov- CT legislation, and which made possi- ble the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill.
 'I am sorry to say,' said MT. Will son. "that the Connecticut delega ton in Congress, were little more than so many mechanical toys, which said yes whenever Cannon nodded and Da1zeII pressed the button. and said no whenever Cannon shook his head that way I have talked with hun dreds of voters regarding legis1a tion that they think Congress should pass and find that the great majority be- lieve that the tariffs on necessities should be reduced, that an income tax that a federal worknnen's compensa- tion act should be adopted and spec ulation in food stuffs made a crime. Many believe that stock watering among corporations engaged in inter- state commerce should be prevented believe that all of these things should be written into the law of the land"
 MT. Wilson has edited some of the leading newspapers in this part of New England and has been a student of remedial Legislation that has been put into force in this and other coun- tries during the past fifty years.

RIFLED ROOMS
 OF YALE MEN
Football Trophy, Frat Pin and Hundreds of Dollars Worth
 of Goods Taken

Several hundred dollars worth of goods, mostly jewelry and valuable trinkets, among them a little silver football, such as is given to member of the second football teams by the Yale Athletic Association and which was stolen from the room of C. c. Childs, now tackle on the Yale Var sity, was recovered by Detective Sergeant Henry J. Donne11y last night following the arrest of Arthur Jacobs who is alleged to have been robbing the Yale dormitories while delivering wood to the students rooms.
 The silver football watch charm, is a highly valued souvenir of a Yale mans career and Childs was consid- erably broken up by it's loss. An other victim of Jacobs alleged thefts was Joseph Wood, Jr., son of Vice President Wood of the Pennsylvania road and one of the stolen articles was a handsome card case containing railroad passes practically every railroad in the West. Another inter esting piece of loot was a ID. K. E." pin, the emblem of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity

EVEN THOUGH IT
DIsRUPTs THE PARTY.

In the New York Herald, A. F. < Howe writes of prevalent conditions i in the Bulkeley-McLean Senatorial l contest, as follows:
 Bulkeley adherentS aI are striving d4a rt to t5,
 wherever by 50 doing there is like i 1ihood of electing a Democrat. In I Essex where there was sharp con
 running independent ticket. If
 elected he cannot get into the Repub- hcan caucus, but the play is to beat 1 the regular Republican, nominee and l thus cut off one sure Mclean vote. l In Oxford the Bulkeley contingent, i beaten at the caucus, has joined ] 9 ominated one time representative ! @ohn B. Hope, a very strong man, sWhose election, thus, is almost as Gured. In NewingtOn and many other towns the same conditions have de- ~eIoped. The Bu1keley Republicans are bolting, in some cases openly, in 1 circumstances they are eagerly and i naturally aided and abetted by the Democrats.
 This tends to confirm previous re- ports of the same general effect. The fight between Bu1keIey and Mclean has become a contest for control of the Republican legislative caucus, whether or not that caucus corn~ prises a majority of the General As senb1y. McLean's campaign man ager, Roraback of Canaan, has called for his principals success despite the BulkeIey bo1ting above referred to by MT. Howe, which can only mean the adoption of the same tactics.
 It would not be surprising-in- deed it is almost inevitabIe-if the Bu1E1e1ey- Mclean contest. developing into political crookedness and treach~ cry to party, above indicated should damage seriously the chances of the Republican State ticket and every candidate upon it. Such con- dfticns will awaken the indignation of honest Republicans and tend to heavily increase the Republican stay. at-home vote.

In it's estimate of November cleo ton results, the N. Y. Herald gives the Democrats 179 seats in the House of the Sixty-second Congress and the Republicans 151; as to 61 seats the Herald is still in doubt. The Herald, in view of such Senatorial changes as the replacement of Hale of Maine and Warner of Missouri with Demo- crats, and the succession of Pro- gressives to the seats of Burrows, Mo Cumber and Piles, together with doubts as to the seats of several other Republican regulars, concludes that after March 3rd next the Progressive Republicans and the Democrats will control the Senate.

The players of the Philadelphia and Chicago baseball teams fare well financially from the series of games for the national championship, each of the former receiving S2,O62, and each of the latter $1,375. Perhaps it is not too great remuneration for the nerve-strain of the contest. The re- suit may fairly be attributed to the superiority of the Philadelphia pitch CTS who far outc1assed their Chicago competitors.
 The contest thus raises anew the old question whether the art of pitch~ ing has so advanced as to lower the batting below the attractive figure. There is little drawing power in a game which is practically confined to the opposing pitchers. If baseball is to retain it's popularity, batting must be encouraged by lessening the ad- vantages of pitchers, either in in creasing the pitching distance or the number of permitted strikes allow ing larger bats, or by some other method of restoring old conditions when games were principally made up of batting, fielding and terrors."

Has Ex-President Roosevelt passed the zenith of his popularity, and is it now the down grade? An afdrma- tive answer is required by known conditions. When he arrives from Africa, he was hailed by the Pro- gressives of the West as their corning g leader, but he has since lost their favor principally because of the whiffling character of his utterances upon the tariff question, his endorse ment of the Taft Administration and his stradd1ing position upon the Pro- gressive issue as shown by his advo- cacy of Senator Beveridge's candidacy for reelection in the West, and of Senator Lodges return to the Senate from Massachusetts.
 His proposed 'snew nationaIisrn '' whether it be as indefinite in scope as he defines it, or so comprehensive e in application as to deprive the States of powers reserved to them by the Federal Constitution, has alienated from him the favor of thinking m em bers of both great parties. It is far too advanced" for them-too nearly approximating the monarchic principle, and too dangerous when coupled with the Roosevelt policy of a great army and a great navy.
 Ex-President Roosevelt has, since his return from Africa, forfeited both Democratic and Progressive favor, without retaining the favor of the Republican regulars. Given plenty of rope, he has proceeded to politi- cal1y hang himself. For once in his career, he has nisinterpreted public sentiment, and his former great pop ulafity has struck the down grade.
 The Rooseveltian thew national ism" was not an issue in 1897, but the following, from a speech deliver ed on March 18th of that year in New York by Daniel Webster, fits it very closely:
 Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of pow CT; but they cannot justify it, even if we were sure that they existed. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the danger of good intentions, real or pretended. When bad intentions are boldly avowed the people will promptly take care Of themselves.
