 Post Office address of each owner must be given.

ONE CoRoNER's WAY.

The latest railroad wreck. in this state was on the Valley Division of the New Haven Railroad. A train rolled down an emba nkment and many were injured. Fhe, accident did not approach the magnitude of the one by which the Federal Express was wrecked in this city, but human life was lost and an inquiry by the coroner was necessary. The newspa- CT reports announce the procedure that is being pursued by Coroner Da- wis of Middletown. The hearing is to be held in the Superior Court room. A jury has been empanelled. Evidence will be taken in public, and the proceedings will not be shrouded in that mantle of secrecy which veils about the coroner's court in this county. The result of the, American procedure in Coroner Davis court $ that its findings will be regarded with confidence, and respect for the cor oner's office will be increased.

THE RED MEMS CELEBRATION.

Stratford Red Men made a fine showing, yesterday, for the old town. Their celebration attracted thousands. It was Old Home Day and a multi tude of the sons and daughter of the ancient community returned to spend @ few brief hours amid beloved and familiar scenes. Every patriotic man and woman took an interest in mak- ing the festival a success. The pa rade was all that could have been de- sired and all that was promised. The street lighting and decorations were on a large scale and so indeed was the whole affair. The Red Men should be congratulated by Stratford, and Stratford by the Red Men. The affair was fine example of what can be accomplished by generous whole sale public spirited cooperation.

bodies of men, prior to the war.
 The conditions of free labor have greatly improved. Labor Day stands as a symbol of continual improve ment. It marks general recognition of the nobility of labor and an equal perception of the truth that idleness is ignoble. The modern rule demands that every man shall be a producer. It classifies tramps and idle rich in the same category. And that conception, thoroughly Christian, and making for brotherhood, is bound within a few years greatly to increase the sum total of human happiness and the quantity of wealth availa ble to raise the standard of living for the masses of men.

FIELD FOR SPECIALS.

The overcrowding of the profes- sions of law and medicine are leading many university graduates to turn their attention to other pursuits in electricity. chemistry, engineering forestry and so on. The demand for specialists continually increases, and the ttendency is for a higher and yet higher specialization in workers. The utmost subdivision of labor fa- cilitates the movement of complex society. One man knows all that is known about one small matter. If he knows a very little about many other things, so much Is gained, but the Important matter is that he should be expert in his. own field. There is little to mourn in the fact thax tho jack of all trades is passing. When communities are small, when the population of country is not great, when the chief industry is farming, the man who does a little of everything attains his highest degree of usefulness. e b9Jns"
 The greatest of all occupations is fRmfng. It will continue to be the greatest forever, so far as the eye of prophecy can now see. The only negative of this proposition is that the art o6 chemistry shall so develop as to permit foods to be produced from the clements themselves by the processes of synthesis. Something has been done in this direction but nothing to warrant the conclusion that products of the laboratory will soon take the place of products of the farm 7'vsgst

Through the centuries ' begiHnfng with 1. the Christian era there has been an enlarging conception of the import ance and dignity of labor. The Pagan world rested upon a system of uni- versal slavery, Greece and Rome are commonly rdescribed. as, pure demo- cracies. They were 50 only for Greek and Roman citizens.

Through most of the cen- turies of the Christian era slavery continued, and serfdom, a form of limited slavery under feudalism, pre- vailed. In the earlier days of our own country some men were slaves, and some were bound out to service for a period of years under condf- tions that closely approached serf- dom. sgEyerybodysakpow 2 slaves were permitted under the laws of the na- ton. until the great civil war and Lincolnss preelaMatie destroyed the institution.

A BRILLIANT ARGUMENT.

Senator Donovan's argument favor ing the repeal of the personal tax bill was in line with his best efforts in behalf of popular measures. He threw into vivid relief the fact that thousands of families in Connecticut must get through the year on an in- come of less than $500 He proved that thousands of workingmen are unemployed during three months in the year. usually the months when the expenses of living are highest. Having laid his foundation in this way he built up the. structure of his opposition to the tax, showing 1t to be an unjust assault upon many all ready overburdened with the effort to make both ends meet.

Kitchener stories are very popular
in London just now, and one whics
has recently come out is causing

During a portion of the South Al

orderly young scion OF noble house
who had joined the imperial yeomanry
as a trooper. He could not quite I'M
derstand that he was not on terms OF
perfect equality with the members OF
the staff, and, having been summoned
one morning to carry dispatches for
the ommander-in-chief. he entered
the room with a jaunty air.
Did you want me, Kitchener? ne
asked calmly. while the rest OF the
staff gasped for fear of what would
happen next.
Kitchener. however, merely looked
at him with a quiet smile. "Oh, don
call me Kitchener" he remarked gent
y, its so beastly formal. Call me

Perhaps one reason why American
born girls prefer to work in factories at
starvation wages rather than work IN
kitchens and be comfortable is that while
in school they studied the same declara-
ton of independence as their brothers
did. Whether that old document tells the

girls something that does not willingly
have inferiority rubbed into them
