AS neither Edison nor any Of us win

WHERE SAGE LOST

The death of William B. Laidlaw " in the home for incurables in New ork on Tuesday recalls the attempt made upon MT. Sage's life, when he held one of his clerks by the hand and made buffer of his body, which, when the bomb exploded. received more than 100 wounds, and from the shock of which he always remained an incurable invalid.
 Public sympathy was then with the poor, young man who attempted to get some compensation from his em- ployer.-
 Russell Sage denied that he detained the young man or was in any way re- sponsible for his injuries and he felt no legal or moral obligation to do anything for hima With his millions he turned aside verdict of $40.O0O rendered in behalf of LaidIaw, and for twenty years this man has been suf- fering, dependent invalid.
 Russell Sage, with his $7O,O0O .OOO never paid Laidlaw one penny. but continued in the cold bIooded spirit which is ansrchy's best excuse and de- fence till the end.
 All the good the Sage millions can do will not wipe out this one black mark in his career.
 The man who lacks sympathy and gratitude is poor, indeed.

VICE PRESIDENT SHERMAN SAD.

Vice President Sherman foes not endorse the treaty of reciprocity with Canada, and he has written letser since congress ratified the treaty. in which he suid
 T look with great sadness upon this seeming trend of the present. but my hope for the future is optimistic
 Of course, the readers of the papers are surprised that the vice president should take sides with Taft's enemies, who, by the way, are growing fewer every day. That Sunny Jim" Sher- man should say to the country upon which he has always smiled that "a great sadness has come over him because conditions for the people are going to be bettered if the conditions for certain trusts are not, is amusing to the people. Is James making a bid for a possible nomination under what appear to be to the public impos- sible conditions?
 MT. Sherman never was a strong Taft msn-he belongs to the compro- mise wing of the republican party and enjoyed the favor of the entire anti-Roosevelt and ant1-faft crowd. Most anything could have been cx- pected except that "a great sadness" should come over him. Let us hope he will not brood himself to death.

DIsREGARDING THE EFFECT UP
 ON REVENUES

The opposition to the administration in this congress does not seem to care how much it impairs the revenue if it can only force the president to make a record which they think will injure republican prospects before the coun- try. It is political play with a very serious matter
 It is not strange that Congressman Payne of New York, the sponsor for the present tariff. got excited when he saw the careless way things were be- ing done, rose in his place, and ex- claimed, with reference to the proposed new wool and cotton tariff:
 What are you passing this bill for |? Do you expect it to become a law !? You are trying to put the president in hole, are you? Why, if you send bills to him from now until December 1. 1t will not be g marker by way of putting the president in hole. That gentleman, statesman of brains and man of character, has certain settled convictions; and one of them is in favor of a tariff board for collecting evidence and using it in the making of schedules. Do you suppose you em- barrass him by sending these crude, il1-examined bills to the White house |? Why, he has the greatest opportunity that president has ever had in years to stand lip 10 the convictions which he has so long espoused by vetoing these measures one after another"
 The twenty-six republicans who by their votes assisted in this work will find 1t difficult to explain to their con- stituents satisfactorily why they aided the enemy in such bald faced polit- lcal scheme against the president and their own party.

Caught Out in a Shower.

Dear Uncle Jed: I read the children's page every week and thought 1 would write to you about our picnic.
 Tuesday morning we got up early and made ice cream and then started for Wyassup lake. We had q big wagon with hay to sit on. and made lots of noise to let people know we were coming. After we got to the lake all of us children went in bathing and had lots Of fun
 As we were eating lunch it began to thunder, and mamma was frightened and wanted to go home, so we got ready as soon as we could and start ed. but not soon enough. It was an awful hard shower. We got under blankets out in the pouring rain but got wet just the same. I had nice time, but should have liked to have stayed at the lake all day. Best wishes to all.-Myrtle Swain

LETTERS TO UNCLE JED. A Day on Hayward's Lake.

Dear Uncle Jed: I am going to tell you about day two persons and my self spent on Hayward's lake.
 It was a good day to be on the water, as the sun did not shine.
 We started about half past eight, in an automobile.
 We wanted to get some bass, so we took our fishing outfit.
 After we arrived at the lake we were quite a while getting ready to fish, but finally we rowed out into the lake and dropped anchor.
 About as soon as I began fishing felt something pulling on my line, and on pulling it in I found that it was a bass which weighed about a pound
 I was pleased to think I had caught the first fish.
 Later I felt something on my line again. It was a good sized bass, and I might have caught it, but the reel did not work right. so I lost it.
 It was about dinner time then, and I guess we were hungry.
 We landed and walked around and then ate our dinner, which tasted pret- ty good.
 After dinner we fished again. and another of our party caught a perch some pond lilies.
 We saw a bird which looked like a stork. although it was small.
 After rowing some. we tried our luck fishing once more. but did not catch any more.
 There was not wind enough to catch

My Trip to Hartford.

Dear Uncle Jed Thursday I took a trip to Hartford, and I had a beautiful time. I got up at , o'clock in the morning so as to catch the six o'clock bus. I went with my father.
 He goes to Hartford about every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. But sometimes he doesn't go. He said he wanted to take me once before he stopped going.
 When we got there I went in where they vote. My father is a representa- : tive of the town of Stonington. I saw old flags which had been through the war. Some were all torn to pieces.
 There was one tree they had there; and it showed where cannon balls had been fired right into the tree.
 Some people went way up in the dome.
 Then I went over in the supreme court and there I saw all the new books; and a great many pictures of governors. There was a portrait of one who was governor 213 years ago.
 The supreme court has just been completed. I did not go all through it, because did not have time.-Emily BaIbcocIl, age II, Old Mystic, Conn.

Roasting Chestnuts.

For a long winter evening, when it i3 too cold to coast. and when there is not enough company for games, there is no to1lier fun than roasting chestnuts. One must be an expert to do it properly, to have them done to a turn, without burning his fingers.
 The careless boy is not likely to do it right: and the lazy boy is not likely to do it at all. for he will have no chestnutsstO roast.
 The chestnuts must be gathered on the sharp, frosty morning of October, and on such mornings there is a scramble between the wide-awake boys and the squirrels to see who will get the nuts first.
 The lazy boy. who waits till later in the day. will find that the squirrels have got them all.-Ehtel Burton Whitney. age B. Putnam, Conn.

The Birthday Party.

Little Anne Brown came crying up the street to the house, and said:
 Anna Crosley and Mabel Sweete are nine tomorrow. I am, too. They are going to have a party; but I can't go."
 Now, Anne, don't cry" said Mrs. Brown. You may go down to the store and get three dolls. Here is seventy five cents. Then you may go to their houses and give one to Mabel, one to Anna. and keep one for yourself. You can invite them to come to our house at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Then you will have a party together"
 Anna's doll was dressed in blue sat- in, Mabel's in pink satin, and Anne's in red satin.
 Anne hurried off to their houses. She gave them their dolls and told them to come the next day at four o'clock.
 At four o'clock they were all there. There was never any happier children than they were that afternoon.-Ella L. McCo1lum, age Il, Mansfield Depot, Conn.
