CARLETON'S LETTER
Continued from First Page.

bury and the northern and western tier of towns in New Haven county out, and would have good fighting chance in the First-nearly all of Hartford county and the Fourth-nearly all of Fairfield county. The new Third is the four east ern counties and here the Republicans would win all right except for factional differences like the knifing of Goodwin in New London county last fall.
 The new Flfth-the eastern edge of Fairfield. western and northern New Haven including Waterbury and all of Litchfeld county-would be Republican ground though even there might be a possibility of the fact that Waterbury would largely control this district work ing to the detriment of the Republican ticket. It is regarding this district that there is the most trouble among the Re- publicans, for Stratford and Brookfield, the homes of Senator Judson and United Marshal Sid Hawley. are in it and the SC gentlemen-the first probable candi- date against Brandegee in 1915 and the second still very powerful in Fairfield county and Judson's friend-are thus largely shorn of their power.
 Query: Wouldn't there have to be a readjustment of senatorial districts if the Barnum plan goes through, or can con- gressional districts split senatorial dis sricts?
 That state tax was unnecessary and it was good thing the Senate voted it down. There is little likelihood of the House acting favorably on it now. The small towns don't want it. Senator Peck s masterly showing up of the financ- ing of the state in recent years made @ great impression and made clear the fact that we have been able to pay for permanent Improvements without issu- ing the bonds without the accompani- ment of which those improvements would never have been authorized by former legislatures.
 What he said about the denominations of the state bonds also struck home. There isn't question ip the world but what an issne at 31S per cent would be quickly oversubscribed two or three times if it was made in such densmina- tions that the people generally could buy, and opened to everybody.

Jumpina coooons.

Many visitors to the southwestern states and Mexico have amused them selves by watching the queer motions of jumping beans," the seed vessels of plant, each of which contain the pupa of an insect whose spasmodic movements cause the bean to hop and roll about
 More remarkable are the "juniping cocoons' found in South Africa. The cocoon is formed by the mother in- sect and is very hard. The pupa when ready to emerge must cut its way out The front of its head has a sharp, chisel-like edge. and by driving this against the inside of the shell 1t grad ually makes a hole. The violent mo- tions of the pupa within cause the CO., coon to leap so that one has been seen to spring out of small glass tumbler. St Louis Republic.

Old Time Trnea NLans.

On nearly all street corners even In the largest metropolis or Europe may be found relics of the middle ages and of the earliest times. Take. for in- stance the wooden image of shoe, which every cobbler hangs out above his door. Ii goes back for its origin to the Rome of the pre-Christian era. In the ruins of the lava buried cities of Hercukineum and Pompeii many shop signs of stone and terra cotta have been discovered, the forerunners of those that for centuries adorned the highways not only of Europe, but of the new world. Among them was the emblem of the shoemaker's trade, a Cupid~ arriving a dainty pair of wo- mems sEJes. But the Romans did not stop there. They used the image of a goat to indicate the dairies, that of a mule driving a mill to point out the bakers shops and bush of evergreen to direct the thirsty traveller to tav- ern. This particular sign gave rise to the English proverb, Good wine needs no bush.".,

Iawxarn on q Strike.

Over 300 years ago one of the most unusual strikes ever recorded took place in Paris. when all the lawyers walked out. so to speak. A law or ordonnance was issued and promul- gated by the French king Henry III. ordering all lawyers to sign their pleadings and to state the amount they were charging their clients for their services. This was done so that the lawyers could be properly and sufficiently taxed on their income. The lawyers objected, and the strike, causing an entire stay of judicial pro ceedings. followed. Peace was restor~ ed by the nonenforcement of the or donnance, though it was not repealed.

The View From an Asroplans.

It is a great surprise to the unini- tiated to see how uniform the surface of the earth appears when viewed from a great altitude. Although indi- vidual objects are hard to Identify, such things as rivers, lakes and rail- roads are easily recognized by their contour. direction or some slight indi- viduhlity or characteristic which can readily be shown upon a map, espe- cially if the maps are made or correct ed by men who fly above the earth and get an accurate and literal birds eye view of its surface. Objects which seem to loom up with the great est clearness to one standing on the surface of the earth appear very diff ferent and quite insignificant when viewed from above, while patch of colored soil which would not be no- ticed at all by a person standing on the ground is a most valuable land mark to the air sailor.

A striking description of that incon- eeiyably minute particle the electron,
 which within recent years has de throned the atom as the ultimate com ponent of matter, was given by Presi- dent E. F. Nichols. Its behavior" he said, lis that of an atom of nega- tive electricity pure and simple. Its form Is spherical and not spheroidal. It's size is probably less than one ten million-millionth of an inch. When revolving briskly enough in an orbit within the atom it gives us colored light of highest purity. When violent ly jostling irregularly about it gives us white light. Without the elecron all light would be impossibIe.-Ex- change.
