y Young man from Pittsiield, who
came down TO Augusta Thursday to
attend the exhibition at City hail met
with a peculiar mishap. although hap
ply IL was not accompanied by any
very serious results. During the af-
ternoon he visited the postoffice and
encountered for the first time in his
lie revolving door. He was at al
loss as how TO enter and while inves
tigating he pushed his head in be-
tween one Of the sections of tire door
and the casing TO see what there was
in there. He found out, but in "A way
that ne had hardly expected. for as he
pushed his head into the opening
someone started to come out of the
office and the door in turning caught
his derby hat and crushed it TO such
all extent that ii would put any of the
prevailing shapes in women's head
gear TO the blush. The damaged hat
was soon replaced by new one and
the young man went home happy, but
allowed that the next time he en-
countered door Ct that kind he would
know what to do.

We made it as strong as possible in order that we might not lose any form of relief by having omitted 1t from the brief"
 ''Will this action result in reor- ganization of the steel corporation ?" 'I don't know" answered the attor- ney general.

 SPEAKS AT DEDICATION OF DEFENDERS MONUMENT

ways. At this gateway to the city diverge the avenue bearing the name of Columbus-discovere of the New l World in which we live; the avenue bearing the name Of Davenport-foun- der of our colonial form of governz ment; and the avenue bearing the name of Congress, that speaks of the common country about whose flag stood those on July ,, 1779. who, under Col. Sabin, here manned the guns that commanded Milford Hill.
 "A statue of Columbus, gift to the city of some of our Italian fellow citi- zens, stands on Wooster Square. John Davenport's is the central figure of a group depicted in memorial window in the church of which he was the first pastor. And now at last on the avenue named for the Congress of the United States, comes this Defenders Monument. 6
 '.The British force that invaded New Haven was too strong to be success fully resisted. But On this spot was won, at least, temporary victory. The bridge was effectually defended by Col Sabin's force, and they only left their post to hurry to the defence of the upper bridge at Westville where, the river being easily fordable, crossing could not be prevented.
 The names of Colonel Sabin and Captain Bradley and Captain Hillhouse are still fresh in the memory of their native town. She does not forget her defenders in later times. In her most beautiful park, on the topmost sum mit,s stands her soldiers monument. The heroes of more than one war are there commemorated. The men of New Haven have always been quick to respond to the call of military duty. This speaking group pictures but one of many companies of those who have served her in war as they had served her in peace. The greater monument upon East Rock stands there in memory of them all. New Haven has ever been dear to her children, and. they have ever been dear to her.
