TONE AS VIEWED BY BOOKER
 WASHINGTON.

The reason there is national interest in Booker T. Washington is because he always has something of nation wide importance to say
 The other day, in addressing the National Colored Teachers associa ton at St. Louis, he ventured to tell them there was altogether 'too many high toned negro teachers. This class of educators" said Dr. Washington, are accomplishing nothing. They will not accomplish anything either, until they come down to the level of their lowly race. Teach the negro the idea of using his hands as well as his brain and you will accomplish practical re- suits"
 His estimate of tone has popular ring to it that will attract attention beyond the limits of this continent. He really warns them that tone doesn't give the right color to business. espe- cially the business they are enga ged in.
 Dr. Washington believes in the negro and is trying to point out to him the right way. He told these assembled teachers that the negro can make a contribution to progress such as no other race can make, but it must be by being himself As long as he is content with being a second hand edition of the white man and strives every day to look more and more like the white man, he will never find out what that mission is."
 He is impressed the negro is guilty of thinking too much of himself as problem and too little of himself as a man with mission.

WATER FOR RAILROAD.
1t is Going to Feed Its Engines from It's Own Supply Instead of the City's.

The carpenters of the construction gang of the Western division, under the supervision of Elliott E. Candee, the foreman for this city, have just completed the work of dismantling the $50. 000-gallon water tank at Bristol, says the Waterbury American. The people up that way have an idea that the thing is going to be put up in Waterbury, but the officials of the company say they are well supplied with water. All sorts of conjectures have been given for the reason of dis continuing the tank in Bristol, some saying that place has jumped the price ef water on the company and others leasing of the land upon which the tank formerly stood there.
 Superintendent Lake of the Western division explained away the whole thing in the one sentence: They don't need it there, that's all.'
 In Waterbury the road does not need any more tanks. The one down at Freight street has capacity of 55,000 gallons and the one at Bank street holds the same amount. and the third down at the Meriden Junction has a capacity of 45.000 gallons. An experi- ment was started on the Freight street CT main tank here Saturuay that prom ises to save the road a lot of money. At present the three tanks here are supplied with city water, but an artes- tank and q motor for pumping installed there This motor was tried out Sat urday and worked satisfactorily and will undoubtedly cause the road to dis continue the use of the city water for engines

THE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
BOOK PEND

T should think exclaimed Mrs. Turnover, that you would be ashamed to sit on the front porch. where people can see you, and read a blood and thunder story like that. Anybody can tell, from the look of the cover. that it's one of those cheap, sensational books"
 People are too fond of judging from externals," replied Turnover, calmly. One reason why the ignorance of the people is appalling is that they pay too much attention to the covers of books and not enough to the contents. This admirable work is entitled 'Buf- falo Rilfs Strategy; or, The Vengeance of Shining Thunder the latter being an Indian chieftain of wide reputation in the early days. Buffalo Bill is one of the great figures in American his tor. and only thoughtless people fail to appreciate his pemarka ble achieve ments Nothing could be more ab- sorbing than this narrative of the way he foiled Shining Thunder at every step, the Indian having sworn to scalp him.
 Judging from the pictures of him, it would have been blessing had the In- dian succeeded" remarked Mrs. Turn over, unsympathetically T do abom- ina-e a man with long hair and I don't care whether he's man killer, corn doctor or music teacher. I was hop ing that I could get you to kill a chick en for me. but I suppose it's useless to ask you, now that you are welded to that silly book. MT. and Mrs. Rice burner are coming to dinner tonor- row and I want to get the chicken ready this evening""
 T never could understand why women always consider it necessary to have chicken for dinner when com pany's coming,'' said Turnover. That has been the custom ever since chick ems were invented and I do wish that one woman would rise superior to tradition and superstition and get up a company dinner without a deceased rooster in the place of honor. I never go visiting any more, for the simple reason that people always want to feed me on fried chicken, or stewed chick en, or boiled chicken. I hate chicken,

A BOYS PUNISHMENT.

The sentence imposed on a youth 21 years of age by the court at Los Angeles, Cal. for stealing 5000 from the theater, where he was a trusted employe, is attracting national atten- ton. He was tried, found guilty, and was given the, following sentence:
 You shall stay at home nights. You shall femain within the limits of this county. You shall not play billiards or pool. frequent cafes or drink intox- icating liquor and you shall go imme- diately to work and keep at it until you have paid back every dollar you stole. Violate these terms and you go to prison.'
 This is something new in the way of punishing dishonesty, and it will be interesting to note how the case progresses. It puts the young man in a position to live soberly and indus triously and economically, and it will be a training of lifelong value to him if he succeeds. But will he succeed ? As wage chances are, the prospect is certainly against him. It would be a true way of redeeming his character; but the battle to make good this great sum of money is something few men could fight to a successful finish.

any way you fix it, and so do thousands of other oppressed taxpayers, but they are afraid to say so. If l was getting up a dinner for company I'd stick to roast beef. One slab of good old roast beef is worth carload of hens.
 But roast beef never will be popu- lar for company dinners because--a woman could get up roast beef din- ner without bothering her husband when he is trying to store his mind with useful knowledge. If there's any thing married woman hates it's to see her husband refreshing himself at the fount of learning. If she sees him On the front porch pondering over many quaint and curious volumes of forgotten lore, she says to herself: That will never dol I must think of some way to disturb him, Fortuna te-' ly,' she muses, there is an old scrawny rooster pirooting around in the wood shed and I'll have him go out and cut the head off it.
 "A woman doesn't realize what dis gusting job it is to decapitate a rooster. I have never been in training as a headAman and such a task is a great annoyance to me. A rooster has no sense whatever and when it has to be killed it acts in a most unsportSman- like way. Instead of taking it's medi- cine gallantly it tries every possible trick to sidestep the hatchet. It has about a bushel of wings and it flaps them in your face. It is all covered with claws and spurs and it scratches you shamefuily. It wriggles and writhes, so that you can't get fair whack at it and when you do wield the ax it always flies off the handle. By the time you have overcome the bird you are covered with blood and feathers and you never want to see a gentleman hen again as long as you live
 Tt never occurs to woman to order dressed chicken at the meat market. She must buy pa triarchal bird on the hoof and then have her husband Sacri- fee the best years of his life by kill ing it-''

FOOLISH RESENTMENT.

The announcement that the Connec- lieut. Grangers will boycott the state fair because the president is going to be present to make an address, appears tO be too unreasonable to be true.
 Is 1t American for citizens to strike a at the president of the United States because he will not truckle to d class. but insists upon promoting a policy which he believes will be for the good cf the entire people? It strikes The Bulletin that the president, who knows no classes, and who refuses to recog7 nize organizations and political com binations. when duty demands that he shall consider the interests and vel fare of the whole people, is the man for all tse people to honor.
 Those who favor reciprocity declare that it will benefit the farmer $ much ss any class of people in this state or any other state.
 The Courant is right when it says:
 If there has been any doubt about the president attending, we trust none will longer be entertained. He couldn't afford now to stay away. But, if we are not mistaken, these alleged lead CTS of the Grange element in our so- cial and industrial life are the first citizens of Connecticut ever to under take to offer a public insult, to a president of the United States"
 The farnsrs are reasonable and re Epectful citizens and The Bulletin does not believe the major part of them, Grange or no Grange. are going to do a thing so weak and un American ss this clearly is

BISHOP MALLALIEU,

The Methodists in all parts of the country will recognize that the denom- ination has lost one of it's most emi- nent representatives in the death of Bishop Mallalieu. He was a man of, character.
 The Boston Transcript says:
 There was an austere dignity in his bearing that was almost Roman in quality. His patriarchal appearance lent impressiveness to his pulpit utter 'ances. On any theme that stirred him he could deliver himself with force ful drectness and rugged eloquence. In theology he was ultra conservative. He believed in the verbal inspiration of the Scriptures. taking his Bible lit- erally from cover to cover, Jonah and all He proudly proclaimed himself a preacher of the/ old fashioned gospel. He was always downright, straight forward and uncompromising. He had no tolerance for the higher criticism and little understanding of modern movements for social betterment. His conception of religion was essentially individualistic. The emphasis in his work was on saving souls, rather than on regenerating society. In his per- sonal relationships he was simple, democra tic and kindly. If his public utterances were occasionally marked by extravaganza of statement this could easily be forgiven him in view of his manifest sincerity and integrity. Bishop Mallalieu was fine type of the Methodist preacher of the old School''

Tell Me Now,

When I cash in and this poor race is run, my chores performed and all my errands done. I know that folks who mock my efforts here will, weep
 ing, bend above my lowly bier and bring large garlands, worth three bucks a throw, and paw the ground in ecstasy of woe; and friends wear crepe bowknots upon their tiles, while I look down Cor up) 1000, ,000,- 900 miles and wonder why. those peo- pie never knew how smooth I was before my spirit flew. When I cash in I will not care yen for all the praise that's heaped upon me then. Serene and silent in my handsome box, I shall not hear the laudatory talks, and al, the pomp and all the vain display will be just fuss and feathers thrown away. So tell me now, while I am yet on earth, your estimate of my surprising worth. Or tell me what a lulu bird I am and fill me full of taffy and of jam. Walter Mason, the Prose Poet.

A majority of the members of the Connecticut legislature will compare for intelligence and ability with the representatives in the legislatures of the leading states of the union, but any Legislature in the hands of unwise and prejudiced leaders is very likely to go sstrsy and disgrace the state it repre- sents. There is no good reason under heaven for this extremely long session ot the legislature; and the conduct of the general assembly along political lines has shown that there was d lack of good judgment among the leaders

HAS DONE QUEER THINGS.

The Connecticut legislature has done some queer things, but nothing queerer than the passing of a resolution in both branches. granting a divorce to one Herman O. Schmidt on the ground of his wifes insanity. Were the power given to legislatures to grant divorces considerable social confusion would follow. Though strangely enough Gov ernor Baldwin signed the measure of giving the power of eminent domain to the Connecticut College for Women hs could not permit such outre pro- ceedings to get by him. and promptly returned the resolution with his obiec- tions, which would seem to be con- elusive. He told that body that the Fourteenth amendment prohibited the granting of a divorce by a state, and furthermore. that the state statutes provided that the superior court should have exclusive jurisdiction of all com plsints of divorce It would be a good thing for the Connecticut solons to fsmilarize themselves with the laws already on the books before making new ones. If all the members of the legislature were ex-Canadians that at titude might be understood, for in Canada only parliament can grant di- vOrces.-Boston Transcript.
