CHAPTER XXIII.
THE CODE MESSAGE.

Il was bit of common human Der
verseness that kept Ldgerwoot
from thanking Judson when the
- engineer overlook him at the cor
ner OF the plaza. Uppermost in his
thoughts at the moment was the keen
sense of humiliation arising upon the
conviction that the plucly little man
had surprised his secret aud would de
spise him accordingly; hence his first
word to Judson was the word of au.
thority.
go back to Schleisinger and have
him swear you I'm as deputy consta.
blc," he directed tersely. "When you
are sworn In, come down here and
serve this" and he gave Judson the
warrant for Hallock's arrest. ARREST
him wherever you can find him and
take him over to Copah on the first
train that serves. He'll have to clear
himself IL he can; that's ALL"
When Judson. with his huge cowboy
pistol sagging at his hip, had turned
back to do the first part of his er
rand LIdgerwood went on around the
Crows Nest and presented himself al
the door Of the Nadia. Happily fol-
his purpose. he found only Mrs. Brew
ster and Judge Holcombe In possession
the young people having gone to clint
one of the bare mesa hills behind the
town for an unobstructed view of thu
Timanyonis.

Michigan Daily, OF Ann Arbor, had the
following.
The appearance of Madame Bernice
DE PasquaH last evening was the signal
for "a flood of eager applause. Her gra-
|c.ous presence alone won half the
hearts of her hearers But when she
had sung. the applause became thun-
dcruus. and AS the evening passed. It
was evident that she was winning an
ovation such as is rarely accorded
Festival artist. she enjoyed her tri-
umph quite frankly and showed un-
prccedentcd corIiaIity in the matter Of

And be it noted that the art Of Nine
Pasquali is something entirely and sig
Hihcantly different from the art of the
colOratura sopranos one hears every
DAY. As regards the pure technique Of
those marvellous vocal cadcnzas Of
Verdi and Thomas with more exquisite
grace of tone and shading. But this is
not an; hers is no mere art of runs |
and arpeggios ana trills These things /,
become In her singing but the exterior |

Connecticut is slowly but surely be- coming progressive, in evidence of which is to be cited the striking fact that Con- necricut through it's latest legislative act is Following the example of western states in banishing the common drink ing cup, that fruitful source of disease and death. The legislature at Hartford Is to be heartily congratulated on this enactment.-Waterbury American.

 One of the agricultural weeklies has suggested the submission to the senate of farmers petition asking for a parcels post. Why not go straight to head quarters and send that petition to the express monopoly y?-Waterbury Repub- 1can.
 The Connecticut law should be made more stringent to prevent the importa- ton into the state of diseased cattle. But the latest experience ln prevention is not encouraging. Eleven milch COWS were driven into the state from New York state. recently. pr. " M. Knapp of Danbury, acting for the state cattle inspector, had the cattle killed. But one of the carcasses was rejected as unfit for food. The other ten were sold. Bridgeport Farmer.
 How to keep the country boys and girls in the country IS the all-important question before the session of the National Conference of Charities and Correction in Boston. Try moving picture shows, and polite vaudeville.- Bridgeport Post. ..
 If the House would only hurry up a little bit the senate might do some work and the Connecticut legislature adjourn before harvest time. Gentlemen, of course these attenuated sessions cost the parties never do.-Hartford Post.

MINORITY BILL PASSED

The passage of the minority public utilities bill of the House in concurrence with action of the senate, ends the agi- tation that has been warm and more or less bitter for the last four years, and commits the state of Connecticut to the principle of state control of public ser vice corporations, as it is considered a foregone conclusion that Governor Bald win will sign the bill. The chief argu- ment against the minority, or Judson bill, has been that it would be declared unconstitutional, and furthermore that under this bill corporation could appeal from the commissions order and keep the case in court two or three years. meanwhile continuing the cause of grievance, and if the order was not susI talned the costs would eventually fall on the individual and not on the corpor- atlon. However, It is argued that as the law may be amended at any time, such defects as may develop in it's oper- ation may be remedied. Whichever way it works, it is some satisfaction to the people of the state to have the ran corous fight brought to an end, even temporarily, and now we shall see what we shall see.

GOOD ROADS AND BAD

It is 8 favorite and familiar boast of Massachusetts people, generally, that in the matter of state roads they are far and away in advance of their Connecti- cut neighbors as regards not only extent, but quality, durability and processes of construction.
 Just what ground they may think they have for this idea is not apparent to the average observer disposed to make com- parisons. Connecticut tourists who travel through Massachusetts decline to admit the soft impeachment, while ,ad- mitting that Massachusetts good roads are good roads. and through travellers from other states frankly maintain that no state has better roads than the good roads of Connecticut.
 It is not the purpose of this article tc combat the contention of our Massachu- setts neighbors, nor to argue that their good roads are not acceptable. The pur' pose is to direct attention of the Massa chusetts towns on the border line to the propriety of meeting the good roads ot an adjoining state with roads equally as good, and to call attention to the condi tion of the road leading from North Ca naan into Massachusetts, over the Hoae crossing, as an example of negative re ciprocity and manifest proof that while Massachusetts good roads may be very good roads, its bad roads are mighty bad
 The state road leading north from this village to the state line was built severa years ago, yet the town of Sheffield has done nothing toward helping to make the through pike more navigable nortE of the state line At that point north hound travellers, by auto or wagon. finC It very much like emerging abruptly from 8 parlor floor to a ploughed field Massachusetts should contruct it's super.

"Exading" the Inheritance Tax

They are trying to sheer in New York at William Waldorf Astor for trying to evade the inheritance tax" He has transferred to his son the big interest in the Waldorf Hotel, which would cost the heir pretty sum, if 1t came to him via the Probate Court. The senior Astor gets rid of the inheritance tax by anti
 cipating the distribution of his property. Now there is nothing to sheer at in this.
 He is living up to the letter and the spirit of the inheritance tax principle. The natural effect of an inheritance tax would seem to be without question to lead property holders. especially those to whom property has become burden, to transfer some of their superhuous pos sessions before death. So far as the law works that way it works i'll wholesome way. The man who divides up his pro- perty before he dies and gives it away ito avoid the tax, no more cheats the government than the man who takes medicine to avoid dying and so keeps his property out of the courts. The in heritance tax is levied because the law steps in and makes valid the written wishes of some one who has passed be. yond the power of enforcing hls wishes himself. But for the agency of the law, a will would be worthless. It IS the toll on the transfer that the inheritance tax comes to. What man transfers him. self in advance cannot be taxed, and be- sides, it's early transfer hastens the gen. eral distribution, which Is desirable with all large fortunes. Hartford Courant.
