All Named Alike.

A certain Lord Westmoreland fell in love with the daughter of Child, the rich banker, who, however, would not hear of the match. The lovers in spite of this met secretly and kept their love alive, while Child complacently con graduated himself that his daughter had forgotten her whilom lover. One day, meeting Child in club, Lord Westmoreland said, What would you do if, like my friend, you were in love with lady and her father refused his consent to allow them to marry?"
 "Why, run away with her, of course" replied the unsuspecting Child
 Lord Westmoreland promptly follow ed the advice of the banker, who be came so irate that he refused to for give the young couple and, dying, be queathed all of his vast wealth to their child, Sarah. In order to secure the wealth Lord and Lady Westmoreland named all of their six children Sarah, boys included.-Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

Silly Billy From Bolton.

In certain town in the north of England there is a man known by the name of Silly Billy. Not feeling we'll one day, he sent for the doctor. After examination the doctor asked him if he would take a note to the Model lodging house and he would give him sixpence. So Billy, not lik- ing to refuse, said he would. But on the way there he came across a street sweeper that he knew. He told the sweeper where he was going. but he said if he would take the note he would give him threeperce. So off he went and gave the landlord the note, and he found the following writ ten:
 "Give this man bath and keep him in till tomorrow morning, and I will call and see him."
 So the following morning the doctor came and was shown into his room. Looking at the man, he exclaimed:
 'This is not the man I sent!''
 'No, it's not, and I'll pound Silly Billy's head off when see himr' the sweeper replied.-London Telegraph.

An Unnatural Conclusion.

Now she was ensconced with her sweetest and most cherished girl friend in corner of the piazza. and l seated just inside the French window behind massive rubber plant.
 Rather significant vegetation under the circumstances. for, curious as to maiden condolences. candor compels me to admit I listened.
 The bride in prospect cooed her bliss soulfully into her neighbours ear. but through an opening in the leaves could observe that the latter bit her lip now and then and did not appear enthusiastically joyous or congratula tory, as warranted by the occasion.
 But the innocent cooing and amorous gurgling did not cease
 "And to think, to think" quoth she "that such heavenly bliss as fell to my lot might have escaped me forever Dear Bob! Did ever tell you he had proposed to me twice?'
 Then the unsympathetic auditor as sumed an air of innocence.
 Didn't you hear him the first timer she. inquired with raised eyebrows.
 She is not going to be the maid o1 honor.-EXchange

PASSING OF PENNEY
 FROM BIG SHOW
Father Time Calls a Halt on Work of Giant First Baseman

New York, May 6.-In all probability Fred Penney, former star first base man of the National league will soon pass from fast company. Manager John J. McGraw. Of the Giants, has asked for waivers on the veteran whose great all-around work came so nearly landing pennant for the Giants in 1908, the first season he played in Gotham.
 Tenneys legs, it is believed, have gone back on him. Last Winter he underwent an operation for the re- moval of callous growths on his heels. His feet have so far failed to respond to the treatment and it is questions ble if Penney will be able to play for several months, if at all. He is a high-salaried player, and as McGraw must in a few days cut this squad to twenty-five men, he will have to cast sentiment aside in the inter- ests of some promising recruit.
 Penney came to New York in the Winter of 1907-190S in a gigantic trade between New York and Boston. Catch CT Frank Bowerman, Shortstop Bill Dahlen, First Baseman Dan McGann, Outfelder George Browne and Pitcher Cecil Ferguson were swapped by Mo Graw for Fred Penney. Shortstop Al Bridwell and Catcher Tom Needham. Despite the fact that Penney was fast aging this deal proved one of the wis est McGraw ever made.

CITY SAVINGS BARK
 CONTRACTS DESIGN
 FOR NEW BUILDING

The City Savings Bank has contract ed with E.. K. Rossiter. celebrated architect of New York. to design it's new building to be erected in Main street at the head of Elm street. The structure will probably be built by the s. w. Hubbell Building Co. and, will cost in the neighborhood of $125 GOO.
 The structure will have a frontage of 40 feet in Main street and have a depth of 100 feet. The work on the new structure cannot commence for another year because the present ten ants of the old fashioned frame build ing standing on the lot have leases for another year. The tenants are Michael McGann. saloon keeper, and Max Wittstein. ieweler
 The brick building on the northeast corner of Main and Bank streets will be remodeled for the use of the First Bridgeport National Bank.
 It is hinted that the handsome mar ble building now occupied by the First Bridgeport National Bank. at the southeast corner of Bank and Main streets. will be the home of the pro- posed new trust company which will probably be one of the largest institu- tions of it's kind in the State.

RIVAL POULTRYMEN DISAGREED AS TO
 DATES FOR SHOW

At the meeting of the Bridgeport Poultry Association last evening much dissatisfaction was expressed with the dates assigned to the organization by the State Poultry League for the an- nual show of the Bridgeport associa- ton, especially when it was learned that the Bridgeport Pigeon and Pet Stock Association has been favored with an earlier date.
 The next show will in all probability be held on Nov 15. The State league has assigned Bridgeport the dates of Jan. 8, and 5 for the show. It has also assigned Dec. 20 21 and 23 for the Pigeon and Pet Stock Association Considerable rivalry exists between the associations
