The Richards and Pringle's Min
strels came fully up to expectations.
To begin, it was good to see such a
good turnout Of the people and II was
an appreciation of the efforts that
have been put forth by Manager
Hatch in making the house clean and
beautiful to the eye. The interior de
coration was pleasure to behold and
shows the interest taken for the en-
tertainment of our citizens. The min
strels opened up in a newer presenta-
ton, with a stronger lot of singers
than formerly; the chorus and melody
singing being very good. Powell is
still the same old comedian, always
producing lots of laughter with mo-
dicum of trouble, while the band
played some splendid pieces showing
their complete mastery over the in
struments. The show was worth the
money.
The Salt Lake Tribune has this to
say about The Barrier; The Colonial
theatre opened Sunday night for the
season of l911-12 with we'll played
stage version of Rex Beach's powerful
drama. "The Barrier" Eugene Pres
brey dramatized the novel, and had
ample material from which to weave
four acts of as intensely suspenseful
and interesting drama as has played
upon the emotions of theatregoers in
a long time.
The story of 1.-THE Barrier began
twenty years before the opening OF
the play. 1t terminates in the lark,
the table and lamp having been over
turned when the flash from pistol
reveals to us two men in a terrible,
CORY hand-to.hand struggle, in which
the death of one or the other must
result. When the lights are turned on,
one of them lies with knife thrust
through his ribs; The other wounded
IN the arm.
For twenty years the man who got
his Just deserts in the combat had
been pursuing his opponent in order
to have him hanged for crime that
he himself had committed, He had
shot and killed his own wife as she
was clipping with his rival, who imme-
diately consoled himself by marrying
squaw. But he had taken the in

Necia, the girl in the case, is sur

A WORD FOR TRoELEYMEN.

Your trolley conductor is an over- worked man. He is employed in dangerous occupation. It is bad enough to get around on the running board of an open car when you have it all alone, but when 1t is crowded the danger is appalling. These men are almost uniformly courteous. They help old women and old men to get on and off the cars. They help many persons who would not need help if the cars were provided with suitable steps, But this is neither here nor there.
 This class of public servants should be treated with courtesy and consid- eration. If they are occasionally fret full Or indulge. in an outbreak of human exasperation they should be excused, once or twice at least. The public will regret to believe that she from the bench, as a matter collater- al to a recent controversy, was justi- fed There is democracy about trolley cars which the most exalted must recognize. A man may expect his chauffeur to stop at destination without being told. but it is too much to ask of a trolley conductor, who s seldom a directory of residences. It is enough if he stops on signal. It is to be hoped that the transportation business on the Brooklawn line may hereafter be conducted with mutual consideration between passengers and conductors, so that a sound example may be set for other parts of the city less fortunately situated.

0ne-PieCe Bathing
 Suits Barred By Shocked New London

New London, Aug. 25-The Park Commissioners, disgusted with some of the recent exhibitions on the part of a few immodest bathers at Ocean Beach. Tuesday morning issued an or der that hereafter no more one-piece bathing suits will be allowed at that popular resort, says the New London Telegraph.
 The new order becomes operative at once, and the park police serving at the beach have been instructed to ar rest all bathers who persist in ap- bearing in such costumes, after proper warning.
 A very large majority of the bath CTS at the beach in this and previous seasons have appeared in suits which by the most conserva tive standards, but a few have seemed to delight in appearing in the very abbreviated one-piece costumes which have of tended the finer sensibilities of many of the other bathers and spectators.
 Tuesday morning one of the Park Commissioners visited the beach and caught some of the bathers with the goods, or perhaps it might be more correct to say, with the lack of goods Upon their return to the city the rad ical order was issued that hereafter all the one-piece bathing suits would be tabooed.
 It is unnecessary. to state that the Park Commissioners mean business, and that wearers of the single piece suits should either purchase new cos tunes or sew on hobble skirt attach ments, if they wish to continue their natatoriaI pleasure at that resort.

Rei||y's Bill On Free Mail
 Last One In

The last bill which was presented at the special session of Congress which closed this week. was introduc- ed by Representative Thomas L. Reilly of Meriden. The bill was of fered and referred by the speaker at 2:30 in the afternoon and the session came to a close just half an hour lat CT.
 This bill provides that towns, cit ies, or boroughs, having populations of less than 10000, and more than 5000, or having postal receipts of more than $5 GOO, may, if they so desire, es- tablish free deliveries of the mail.
 The law now makes it mandatory for cities of 5O,000 and over and op- tional for those of 10000 and over, or having postal receipts totalling over $10,0O0
 The attention of the Meriden rep resentative was called to this condi- tion because of the town of Clinton. where the receipts reach almost S10,- 900 and yet they cannot have free deliverey there and still the rural towns doors.
 community especially it will, if pass ed, permit many towns and cities, now hampered in mail matters, to get To- cal deliveries and improve the facil- tiles
 The measure is referred by the speaker to the Committee on Post Off, fees and Post Roads, of which MT. Reilly is a member.

SICK AND WELL.

''The devil was sick, the devil monk would be. The devil got well. the devil monk was he" This lit tie couplet of ancient fame, pretty ac- curately describes the attitude of the esteemed Hartford Courant before and after election. The Republican party rejoices in the support of this staunch Republican organ, which in every election presents platform promises as valid contracts with the people, and after election stoutly de- mands the repudiation of the same pledges.
 The Republican platform contains promise to redistrict so thass thHass no con- sressMa ii will be elected at large.
 The advice of the Courant IS, Don't do it. Wait"
 The Courant sees politics in the re- districting, advantage for Democrats. Our contemporary does not do its op- ponents justice. Perhaps the Demo- crats entered into a malevolent scheme to induce the Rorabacks and other gentry who lead the organiza- ton which has seized the power of the Republican party, to make a pronti& !certain to be broken.
 Would it not be a good idea to say

PERKINS PARROTS.

Sweetly unconscious of the trend ultra conservative tendencies rise to defend the ultra radical policies and economics of the socialists. That these pro taEonists rolf things as they ing the order of things as they are rot, in no way alters the fact of the situation. In the habit of following wealth and the spokesmen of wealth, wherever they go and whatever they say, such prophets. of change as are here referred to, know only that they are parroting the views of large plutocrats, who, caught with the goods on, have taken to the defense of trusts and combinations with all the zest that is inspired by a great fear Of governmental dissolution and dispersion. The homily of George w. Perkins, Morgan's partner, which ne delivered to the Stanley Committee, is the latest utterance to be adoring,y touted.3 Might as we'll tout Marx, the father of socialist economics. Marx said combinations were inevitab ble So does Perkins. Marx said combinations would be labor saving machines Per- kins says they are labor saving ma chimes. Marx predicted the elimina- ton of the small business man and the small merchant by the trusts. The trusts are doing those things, al- though MT. Perkins skips over that. Marx said that competition was can nibalisrn, that it was wasteful, un- scientific and injurious. So says Per kins. So say Perkins touters So say the entire chorus of plutocrats who are making Marxians faster than Robert Hunter.

Lived In Poverty
 And Had S500,0O0
Death of Dr.. Charles F. Meyers Revealed His Ownership o. 20 Houses, Mortgages and Bonds

l. New York. Aug. 25-The death of Dr. Charles F. Meyers, an old gentle man who was a we'll known neigh borhood character, who lived in the basement of a building which he own ed at 311 West Forety-eighth street, disclosed that he was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. His lawyer places the value of his estate at $500,- 900 and the finding of a new will which he is said to have drawn up is anXi ously awaited by relatives.
 Although he owned, it is said, about twenty houses in New York as we'll as bonds, mortgages and other good securities, he lived like the poorest of men, occasionally cooking some sim- Die dish in the one room in which he slept, ate, and carried on his bus mess affairs, but more often eating from lunch wagons. Several years ago he engaged s. A. Singerman, a lawyer with offices at 8 Nassau street, to draw up will for him. Last Winter, it is said, he wanted to change this will and wishing to save expense exp he wrote out new one him self, calling upon Mir. and Mrs. Thos. P. Burke of BIO West Forty-eighth St. to witness it for him.
 We did not see the will.' said MT. Burke yesterday. but I have since been informed that in it he left most or his money to churches, though he has brothers and sisters in Massachu sets. A lawyer who made a former will for him was named as one of his executors.
 He was the most peculiar of men. He had many dealings with real es- tate men, but he was in bad favor with many of them because he refus- ed in many instances to pay them their commissions. He collected his own rents with unerring regularity. Recently there was some tin work going on at the corner and he went there and collected a pile of scrap tin and nails in his own hands which he carried back to his house.
 He had been a physician, and still had a small practice. I believe. all though I know little about that. He formerly had offices on Eighth ave- nue, between Thirty-seventh and Thir- ty-eighth streets. He had some in- fluentiaI friends, and one of them suc- ceeded in getting him an honorary degree of Doctor Of Civil Law from some Canadian college. However, he decided that the railroad fare was too much to make it worth his while to go after it.
 ''It is said that his sickness was caused by lack of proper food. He was about 65 years old. and when he was taken sick he at first refused to have a doctor In fact a physician was called in only at the very last He died Tuesday night"

A CHANGE FOR HUDSON.

Senator Judson and House Leader Banks will speak from the same plat form at the bake-News Item. Politics makes strange bedfellows What will these gentlemen do? What will they say? Will they pass the time of day, indicating that virtue in politics is opera bouffe, or will they present their rival theories of govern ment to the Republican rank and file who will be present upon this oc- casion?
 If Senator Judson is the real metal he will seize the occasion to show that if he is a Republican and ought to be a leader in the Republican par ty, Banks is not.
 Unless the Republican party is a two headed beast, travelling hot foot toward decency and corruption in op- posite directions, Banks and Judson can't both be Republicans. Judson was for public utilities, workmen's compensation, direct pri-
 
 things that Banks was for, or wasn't, is long indeed. It has been thorough ly recapitulated in the Farmer. There must be Q division of the house. All Banks kind of Republicans to one side All Judson's kind of Republi- cans to the, other side. Somebody would be lonesome Doubtless Banks would have his friends. Upon his one hand might be Leader King and upon the other, Leader Lavery. But we suspect the crowd would be some where else. The experiment is worth trying. Let us have a separation. Sheep to the right, goats to the left, please.

A TAX FOLLY.

The state tax having been defeated let the poll tax get the same medi- cine. The poll tax is the pet money raising scheme of men who do not know the rudiments of sound taxa tion, not because they are naturally ignorant or incompetent, but because they have been too busy to go into that question. They are men who own property. They pay a tax on the property. They see men who do not own property, and do not see them pay taxes. The propertied man says of the propertyless man, He ought to pay a tax, and devises the poll tax
 Centuries ago men knew that the man without property could no more dodge a tax than he could fly with out wings, or a flying machine. Gen. turies ago men learned to tax prop erty, or to lay tribute on goods bought and sold. The expense of taking revenues from poor men n any other way was costly and gen. erally fruitless.
 Yet, among the uniformed, the tradition still prevails, that poor men, that is men who do not own real es- or bonds. do not pay a tax. In fact such men pay most of the taxes. Everybody knows this to be so, who understands the principles that gov ern taxation.
 Of what consequence is it to a man with respect to his tax whether he lives in a rented house, or owns his house? Will the landlord make him a present of the tax? If the land lord will not, neither will the grocer, nor the butcher.
 The federal government employs a means of taxation that is the most subtle of all. Its revenues are de- rived rom a tax on tobacco, liquors and imports.
 The man who buys the goods pays the tax. A ten cent cigar pays a cent to the nation. Yet a man who smokes three day will placidly ad- nit that he is not a taxpayer, if somebody makes the charge. Actual ly he pays on that one item alone s10.95 to the support of government. If he lives in rented house, worth $4,000 he pays a further tax of some s68 unless the landlord is a philan- thropist.
 But the poll tax he frequently will not pay. If he does pay it, the ex- pense of collection eats up most of the intake. From every standpoint the personal tax, is an ignorant, irritating folly perpetrated by lawmakers ignor- ant of sound tax methods and the tax wisdom of the ages.
 How much time and how much money has Bridgeport expended to get in s40,000 in poll taxes. when $5OO,O00 in taxes on larger forms of rreperty escapes, although it can be had for the trouble of taking it.
