AERIAL TARGETS FOR ARMY.
Dirigible Balloons and Aeroplanes to
 Be Suspended By Box Kites.

Washington, July 5-Rifle practice in the army hereafter will include work on aerial targets. Sheets of canvas, shaped to resemble dirigible balloons and aeroplanes, will be sus- pended from batteries of powerful box kites just as large American flags are often carried hundreds of feet in the air, to the mystification of admir- ing spectators.
 The present intention is to direct at these targets nothing more formidable than the army musket, the marines and soldiers firing in squads, and a careful record being kept of the dam age inflicted on the targets. It is possible that some of the small three inch boat guns may have a try at the targets, but owing to the fact that the guns cannot be elevated very much they must do their shooting at long range, while the targets are low down on the horizon.
 The Army Ordnance Bureau is try ing to perfect a gun that may be ele- vated to shoot into the zenith, but, while a suitable carriage has been de- vised, no practicable way has been found to adjust the sights of such a gun because of the variance in the trajectory of the projectile at the diff ferent elevations.

TWIN REFORMS.

The Caillaux ministry, which has succeeded to the French government, is expected to put through 1.-two cleo ton reforms. The "scrutin de liste'' is to be substituted for the "scrutin de arrondissement," and proportional representation for the more familiar method of electing to legislative bod 1es.
 The first change is in essence the same that would take place in the election of senators of this state if the plan of Governor Baldwin were adopted. The governor would have the entire 35 senators chosen at large. They are now chosen one from each of 35 senatorial districts The ob- ject of the French reform is to get rid of the "politique de cloche," or village politics, against which Gam betta fought in vain. Doubtless Gov ernor Bal5 expects that his plan would br, ne statesmanship of the senate -
 Proportional representation is not a part of the Governors plan, and it's only appearance in Connecticut was Some Is years ago, when a city char ter was drawn in Bridgeport which

JUDSON'S OVATION.

The people of Stratford assembled the other night with a brass band and speechmaker and gave an ova- ton to their distinguished fellow townsman, Senator Stiles Judson, who thanked the citizens with due emo ton. replying in the good old fash toned way that he really was not en- titled to all this display because he had only done his duty as he saw it. But it appeared that this was the very reason for the ovation. There were others who had not done their duty as they saw it, anent which there was some mention of Representative Peck Allusion was also casually made to the circumstance that the fellow townsmen of Hon. Fillmore s. Banks, in the neighboring town of Fairfield, had not up to that moment, given him an ovation for doing his duty as he saw it..
 Mir -Judson's ovation came to him because he delivered the goods with respect to the public utilities legisla- ton and thereby brought honor to his town and credit to his townsmen.
 As the means lof making a fellow feel good nothing beats the ovation. For this large funeral and a big pyr- amid are not to be compared with drum corps and a speech making.
 Public praise with formal ceremon- ial from the men among whom one has always lived is the most gratify-" ing kind of praise.
 Mark how men desire the respect of those among=whom they were rear ed during the tender years Few New England towns but owe some structure, generally library, to the noble yearning of the heart for the good opinion of the nome folks" It is hoped that Senator Judsons pub lie service during many years to come may be of such a nature as to bring him annual ovations or even semi annual ovations.

provided for the election of aldermen upon this principle. The defeat of the instrument was secured by polit- icaI means.
 The effect of proportional represen- tation would be to give several par ties in France numbers in the nation tional legislature in the proportion that the votes of each party bore to the whole number of persons voting. A party with half the vote would get half the representation, and a party with third of the votes would get a third.
 The reform has a considerable body of belief behind it in this country, mainly in the west, and it has been adopted into the charters of some western communities.

FLAG iUNFURLED OVER HOOSAC. Mrs. Westinghouse Raises One on Top
 of Jacobs Ladder at Lenox.

Lenox, Mass, July 5.-At the top of Jacobs Ladder, the State highway over the Hoosac Mountains, Mrs. George Westinghouse again raised the American flag at sunrise yesterday morning
 When the highway, which cost the State of Massachusetts $200,0OO, was opened last September Mrs. Westing- house raised a flag on the mountain top, but it was lost in the storms of the Winter. Mrs. Westinghouse thereupon ordered a new silk flag for the summit, and waited until the Ma tion's birthday to raise again the col ors 2,300 feet above the sea-
 At the ceremony were George Westinghouse, MT. and Mrs George Westinghouse, Jr., Mrs. R. D. Nal lary, widow of the late Dr. Mallary, and the Misses Lucy and Marguerite Mallary.
 A wlndstorm struck LenoX yester- day afternoon at o'clock and tore up trees and shrubbery and laid flat acres of wheat corn, and other pro- duce on the big estate At the coun- try residence of Harley T. Procter a huge tree fell across the main drive.

SLEEPING BABY SHOT DEAD.
Bullet FrOn, July 4 Celebrant'S Pis-
 tOl Through Its Head.

Hackensack, N. J., July 5-At Cliff dale, one of the few places in Bergen county where a safe and sane Fourth of July ordinance was not in force, Adolph, the four months old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Zimmerman, was killed by bullet as he lay asleep in a baby carriage on the front porch.
 The mother took the child to the porch, where a breeze was blowing, while she went to the kitchen to pre- pare dinner. A few minutes later Mrs. Zimmerman stepped out to take a peek at her baby and was mortified to find blood streaming down his face from wound in the forehead. The bullet had gone through his head. . The police arrested Ely August, 22 years old, and Joseph Deer, Is, for having loaded revoIvers in their pos session August admitted having fired four bullets, but did not know where they went. They were com mitted to the Hackensack jail on a charge of murder.

THE FAIRFIELD WRECK.

A railway accident in which four trains meet in general crash ought to be unusual enough and prophetic enough to receive the best attention of the authorities. In an inquiry in to such a catastrophe fthe principles of practical railroading are to be sought, rather than series of de- auctions from the rules of paper railroading.
 The significant fact in the Fairfield tragedy is that the danger signal did not show red. Tn paper railroading there are a multitude of precautions described which make collisions and the successful movement of trains at once impossible.
 Engineers rely upon the block sig nal system. They look for the red light which signifies, "stop! danger! deathI"
 Seeing no red light they move for ward upon a track signified as clear.
 Coroner Wilson fails to fix the responsibility for the unlighted dan ger signal, which every railroad man in the country, if he should give his honest opinion, would pronounce the proximate cause of the Fairfield wreck
 Whose duty to light that lamp? Why was it unlighted?
 no of ic improbable document It proclaims no remedy where a remedy is de- manded. In place of a conservative statement, in which due weight is given to the governing circumstances. is discussion which leads an un- wary mind to the conclusion that the castrophe occurred because an engin- ger was asleep, or dead at his post
 Such a theory may have it's uses in a school of romantic literature, but is valueless to a public that wants to know how railroad wrecks can be avoided
 The wreck occurred because an en- gineer, whether awake and keenly watchful, or asleep, or dead, passed a danger signal.
 Is there no means of preventing wrecks under such circumstances.
 Surely there is. The best modern railroad practice calls for derailing switch at every tower. The train that passes a danger signal is then grounded runs a few feet beyond the tower and stops.
 Perhaps Coroner Wilson has not heard of this means for preventing railroad wrecks. Perhaps he believes the chance that four passenger trains will pile up in heap some day, as the four freight trains did, is not great enough to warrant him in recom- mending the installation of derailing switches, which of course would re- quire some expenditure of money up- on the part of the railroad.

Almost Riot
 Over Bonfire
Cedar Hill Gang Give Police and Bremen Hard Knocks and Trample on Special
 Officer

New Haven, July 5-Disappointed by the edict from Chief, Cowles for bidding the proposed big Cedar Hill bonfire, a gang of fifty or hundred boys and young men started almost a riot there early yesterday morning and made several attempts to rush Ser geant Frederick Hunt and the patrol men who were guarding the big pile. In the fracas Sergeant Hunt was struck over the head with a stone, and Halpin, a supernumerary patrol man, was knocked down, kicked in the side and his uniform torn to pieces. Leading some of the police men away by ruses the gang several times succeeded in touching off the pile and it was necessary to call out the fire engines to prevent it from blazing up. The engine soaked down the pile and remained on the scene until daybreak.
 The police managed to keep the dis appointed crowd in hand until about 5 ed by boisterous spirits from the other fires around the city. The gang had several gallons of gasoline but after their first rush dropped this and it was confiscated by the police.
 Until daybreak the crowd hung around the bonfire site and held up pedestrians and stoned automobiles: The patrolmen were unable to leave the pile to arrest the offenders, be- cause if they did the others would rush in and start the fire. Several persons were bruised and cut, but the only serious injury was sustained by Henry McNeil, the watchman at the new car barn, who rushed out when gang made a racket in front of the building and tripped over a concealed wire. He fell against an iron beam and cut his head.
 In the course of the excitement two false alarms were rung in to annoy the fire department. The guilty per sons escaped each time. I
 The affair was one of the worst with which the police had had to con- tend in years.
 Yesterdady afternoon the pile was moved from the lot in State street to the Meadows in back of View street, and 1t was touched off last night with appropriate ceremonies

HONEST MEDICINES
 VERSUS FAKES.

President Taft's recent message suggesting an amendment to the Pure Food and Drugs law in it's relation to Prepared Medicines, does rot refer to such standard medicines as Foley s Honey and Tar Compound and Foley Kidney Pills, both of which are true medicines carefully compounded of in- gredients whose medicinal qualities are recognized by the medical pro- fession itself as the best known rem edial agents for the diseases they are intended to counteract For over three decades Foley's Honey and Tar Com pound has been a standard remedy fo< coughs, colds and affections of the throat. chest and lungs for chill dren and for grown persons, and it retains today its e-eminence above all other preparations of its kind. Fo- ley Kidney Pills are equally effective
 and meritorious. F. B. Brill and Cur tis Pharmacy. P3 1 5

In the city court, yesterday, fines of $1 and costs, the total about s5, were imposed upon half a dozen pris- oners arrested for discharging fire arms within the city limits. These were the premature celebrators of the Fourth, brought in by the police over Monday night. Judge Foster impos- ed the same penalty in all cases.s
