Along the Connecticut River.

The trolley ears on the west side Of the
Connecticut river. between Springfield and
Hartford, run every thirty minutes. It
requires two hours and quarter to make
the journey. and you can go back to
Springfield in an hour and three-qua rters
by the road on the east side, which is
equally interesting and passes through
similar scenes.
Whichever way you go you have to
keep your eyes open, for both sides of
the road are lined with fine old man
sions. many Of them dating before the
revolution, and some OF them more than
two hundred years old. Every one has a
lawn and garden around 1t and Is
shaded by glorious trees-the oldest trees
in Connecticut, / am told. and equal to
any that you see In old England There
are no fences and the door yards have
intimate relations with the wide high
way, which shows mutual confidence.

HOUSE VOTES

SENDS BRIsToW AMENDMENT TO
THE DIRECT ELECTION BILL
BACK TO SENATE FOR RECON-
SHERATON.
6v Associated Press.

Washington. June 21.-The house
today by a vote of 172 to 112, practical
ly a strict party vote. refused to con-
cur in the Brtstow amendment, adopt
ed by the senate, to the house resolu-
ton providing for the direct election
of senators.
The Bristow amendment leaves with
congress the power to regulate the
time and manner of holding these
elections, while the resolution passed
by the house in the early days of the
present session would change the con-
stitution so that the time, place and
manner of holding the elections for
senator's shall be as prescribed in each
state by the legislature thereof"
The resolution was returned to the
senate for reconsideration. The Demo-
Gratis protested that the people of the
states could be safely entrusted with
the power of controlling elections of
their representatives in the upper house
while the Republicans contended such
a delegation Of authority would take
from congress power which 1t should
retain.

INSPECT SITE
FOR A BRIDGE

EScAMBIA AND SANTA ROSA
COMMISSIONERS VISIT SEVER
AL PLACES AND WILL HOLD A
JOINT MEETING IN PENSACOLA
ON JUNE 80 TO DEFINITELY
SETTLE NATTER.

Yesterday morning, Geo. H Davis.
NJ. o. Baggett and P. Mcclellan, of the
Escambia county board Of county COM
missioners, left on the 6:45 train for
Milton, where they were met by the
Santa Rosa county board Of commits
sioners, and. accompanied by Chas. A
! Dexter, of this city, and H. w. Thomp-
son, circuit clerk of Santa Rosa, pro-
| ceeded in automobiles, furnished by
the Santa Rosa county delegation, to
several points on Escambia river with
the intention of finding and coming to
an agreement as to the location of
| the much-talked-of bridge to span Es-
Gambia river.
The first point visited on the river
was the place known as McDaYid's
Mineral Springs, where a number of
the residents Of the surrounding coun-
htry were gathered. awaiting the arriv-
al of the commissioners. All during
the inspection of the site there was a
lively discussion going on between the
people gathered there as to the merits
and dement's of the site for the bridge.
After a careful inspection the party
then proceeded to a point on the river
known as Williams's camp ground,
where the same careful and thorough
examination was given as the former
place received.
Standing on the Santa Rosa bank of
the river in the dripping rain the
commissioners of the two counties
then agreed that date be set-Friday,
June 30-when the two boards will
| meet together in Pensacola to settle
the whole matter and arrive at a COM
! plete understanding. The party then
| separated, the Santa Rosa people go
ing back home overland in automO-
| biles, and the Escambia county dele
cation crossing the river, proceeding
thence to McDavid, taking the 5:15
train there and arriving in Pensacola
at $40 yesterday afternoon, wet, tired
and hungry.
| The Santa Rosa county commission
ers will attend the big Moultrie- PEN
sacola route meeting to be held in
Mariana on the 18th inst, and then
coming direct to Pensacola to attend
the joint meeting mentioned on the
| 30th.
1t is understood that some Of the
| members If not all Of the Escambia
county board will also attend the Ma
rianna meeting.
Much interest Is aroused among the
Santa Rosa county people and also the
people of Escambia, and the hope Is
freely expressed that the commission
ers will see their way clear to build
bridge across the river and thus weld
! together the interests Of two Of the
best counties in the state.

THE SOUTHERN TRIO
AT THE ORPHEUM

Although choir concerts and Chau-

the Southern Trio, composed of Miss
Missouri Cawthon, Mrs. Jack Griffith
and Mrs. F. E. Brawner. this week
marks the first appearance of these
stage. Despite the fact that on last
Monday they made their debut in vau-
deville, they are meeting with the
greatest success and are giving patrons
of the Orpheum this week an oppor-
tunity to hear a class Of vocal music
that is seldom heard on the vaudeville
stage.
For months, CRITICS as well as friends
of these prominent and gifted women
have been urging them to enter the
field of music as lyceum artists, but
the responsibilities of home life have
prevented them seeking an engagement
Of more than a week or two outside Of
this city.
It will be remembered that last win
ter they filled a successful engagement
at the F7orala Chautauqua, where the
list of entertainers was made up Of
such prominent personages as Madam
Mountford, the famous lecturer from
Jerusalem; Captain Richmond Pearson
Hobson, the hero Of the Merrimac, and
others Of national prominence.
Manager Rose Of the Orpheum recog-
nized the talents of the Southern Trio
and engaged them to play at each per
Torrance, matinee and night, all this
week The selections which they are
giving show the extensiveness Of their
repertoire as we'll as the exquisite har-
mony of their blended voices.

success and in all probability will
lead to further ventures in public en-
tertaining by this trio Of local artists.
