THE EAGLES MAYOR

Closing a desultory editorial on the subject of the Canaan, (Ct,) fire depart ment, we observed that If we learn that The News Is taking a gentle rap at its village, we may have something to say that will be worth reading" The News, in the course of an extended and most entertaining and original reply, remarks: -"If The Eagle can turn out anything else on the subject as we'll worth reading as the foregoing editorial, let the inves- tigation proceed-and the quicker the better" We are we'll nigh as pleased with this as with the invitation to make the News our headquarters while wait ing for train 1n Canaan.-Pittsfield Eagle.
 That's hardly up to the original. It leaves the reader to infer that The News would connive to honeyfugle the Eagles mayor from his purpose to investigate, and if necessary expose, this paper, in the matter of it's animus in "taking a gentle rap" at something. Far be it so On the contrary, The News welcomes investigation and hankers for exposure along the lines contemplated by the mayor of the Eagle, and harbors no sinister purpose to kidnap the inquisitive visitor, inveigle him into the sanctum sanctorum and get him to feeling good, in order to divert his attention till his train goes back. The heavens forbid The News proposes to help the Eagle man out in his Investigations; chaperone him about, to every source of informa- tion; not only aid hlm but make him investigate; then, if there is any time left before his train leaves-well. that S different. Nov let the Eagle scream.

Torrington,s Police Dogs

The two bloodhounds ordered by the members of the Torrington police force arrived there last week. They were taken to Chief Hull's home where a kennel had been prepared for them. The Torrington police department can now claim the distinction of being the only one in the county to own blood hounds.
 One of the hounds is eight months of age and the other is five months. Neither of them has been trained to follow scents but chief Hull said that the work of training them would probably be begun during the early part of spring. They were shipped to Torrington on February 16 from Kansas and are guaranteed to be full blooded stock.

What the Other Fellows Say

We may get again the 'slx weeks sleighing in March," which some of the past seasons have been fabled to afford. Something approximating that in quality came with the storm that started March 18th, 1888 Spread out to normal proportions six weeks would have been right for t.-Bridgeport Standard.
 George Washington didn't believe in conservation. If he had he would not have cut down that cherry tree.- Palladium.
 Another new factory for New Haven. There's nothing the matter with New Haven nor with, having an up-to-date city.-New Haven Jonrnal- Courier.
 Congressman Hill scored another personal triumph in Congress in his address on the reciprocity bill. Even the critics of the measure were not as we'll prepared as he to quote figures and statistics, and the House was largely influenced in favor of the bill by his overwhelming array of evidence. Con- necticut may well be proud of such an able epresentative.-Wa Waterbury Re publican.
 Governor Baldwin has little book in which he keeps his dinner engagements, It is pretty we'll filled, too.-Hartford Post.
 A local store is selling eggs for 13 cent dozen. Now there, old Highcost- of-living, "watcherknow" about that ? ---Pittsfeld Eagle.
 Down south they have reached a stage where the one-horse farmer is regarded as a valuable asset Once he was just set down as "poor white trash. .''-Norwich Bulletin.

 And so it wasn't Governor Baldwin after all, who advised that Connecticut newspapers print quarter of a column of truth, daily. Instead. it was Thomas Jefferson. The governor does seem to have the worst luck ever about being misquoted.-Ansonia Sentinel.

Midnight came, but no hubbies. One o'clock in the morning-still no hubbies. Then the ladies.in waiting organized n conspiracy to give their recreant spouses warm reception when they should come along, if they ever did come. At 2 o'clock the belated lords and masters came along, enthusiastically discussing the events of the festive night.

The ladies at last agreed to an armistice, but protested that they d just like to get hold of that Colonel Osborn once.

An ingenious variation of the guide
ways for sliding window screens has
been invented by an Illinois man.
This form Of screen moves up and
down on stationary grooves set inside
the window frame and usually is put
in place by having a spring attach
rnent on one end. In the device here
shown the guides are made in two
sections. the lower of which are sta
tionary and the upper being hinged to
the top Of the window. When the lat
ter Is in vertical position it forms an
uninterrupted groove with the bottom
section. 1t is very easy to adjust a
screen on this form Of guide, as the
upper part Of the guide can be pulled
out at the bottom and the screen slip
ped into it. The guide is then allowed
to drop back into place. and as the
screen slides down over the point Of
intersection of the two pathways 1t
holds both in exact alignment. 1t is
easy to remove these screens to wash
the windows.
