By a Staff Cores. of the United
 Press.)
 Butimba, Uganda Protectorate, Jan. 17.-Word from Ex-President RooSe- welt, who is now at "Rhino Camp today, says that he refused to make any statement when informed that Clifford Pinchot had been dismissed from his post as chief forester of the United States government by Presi- dent Taft. MT. Roosevelt was known as the sponsor and warmest admirer of the deposed forester. Aside from expressing surprise at his dismissal Colonel Roosevelt would make no comment.
 The Roosevelt party will probably spend the entire week in hunting for white rhinos, of which species the Colonel has already killed one.

EAST SIDE, WEST SIDE ALL AROUND TOWN

Bridgeporters who went to New Ha- ven yesterday say that the condition of the streets there is not to be com pared with the center of our own city. While the snow was cleared away from the center of Bridgeport and all erosswalks cleared off, the Bridgeport CTS said the snow was still piled up in New Haven and one had to wade through it to reach a trolley car.
 The new shot tower of the Union Metallic Cartridge Co.,, the highest building in town, has been illuminated for several nights in the past. The tower can be seen several miles down the Sound and for several miles around the surrounding country and has at tracted much attention. It is ITO feet from the roof of the tower to the ground. and on top of this is 20 foot flagstaff.
 That there ought to be some law to compel the street railroads to pay for a portion of the cost of maintenance Of the bridges over which it's cars run, is the opinion of many people. It is quite evident that. the East Washing ton avenue drawbridge will have to be overhauIed as soon as the new Con- gress street bridge is completed, as for over a year the structure has carried a weight many times the capacity it was intended for. The structure was built to withstand the weight of horse cars Now all of the double truck cars of the Barnum avenue and Beardsley Park lines are run over it daily and it also takes the greater part of the carting traffic to East Bridgeport. The railroad has agreed to give $30, 600 to- ward the construction of the Congress street bridge, but the only part the iI,.f>2 T na n structure will be to keep the roadbed in shape between it's tracks and two feet either side. Pretty soft for the railroad, eh?
 Bridgeport is to have a gospel mis- sion for the purpose of rescu1ng the souls of the people who use the streets after the lights are lit The same irl- fiuences are back of the mission that formerly supported the Klondyke mis- sion in Bank street. The new mission is in the Judson building, occupied for number of years by the Lafayette Hotel and next door to the present office of the hotel, which is the stop ping place of mechanics and many cir GUS men at certain seasons of the year. Proprietor Bunoil of the hotel is said not to object to the location of the mission providing they do not sing much after 10 o'clock in the evening. Next door to the mission is lunch cart and two doors away is the Ire mont Hotel At the other end of the street is a pawnshop and T. Tobin's Star cafe.
 Shine Kelly has been predicting for some time that Middle street was a dead place and that some one would start a mission there before long.
 The time when Middle street needed a mission the most was for dozen years up to about three years ago, but Rev. Charles $. Dennis who leads the mission band may be able to convert the few stragglers who show on the street occasionally. But the Mid way of today is only a tallow candle compared to the white way of the days of the music halls and the times when Bridgeport was wide open.
