Intervention by the United States
would be hypocrisy. for your govern

sending its troops out on maneouvers
II think the American papers are
slanderlng their own government when
they attribute to 1t such bad faith. We
rely on the American governments as

for the purpose of practice. Anything

No Surprise.

1t Is the general belief that the Diaz
government was not in the least taken
by surprise in the matter. Cordially
oe the relations between the Taft and
the Daz administrations, as expressed
when the two presidents met ON thu
international bridge, have not been di-
minishcd by any happening since. 80
far as Is known here.
1t is taken for granted that the un-
precedented mobilization of troops
within few steps of Mexican soil
never would have been effected with
out suitable interchange betW cen the
two governments TO preclude the pos
! sibility of misunderstanding.
Those who hold this view think IL
| sufficient to ask what would happen il
one great power in Europe should sud
denly mass quarter OF its entire mill
tary force within striking distance OF
the imaginary line separating 1t from
another, unless perfect understanding
existed In advance.
There would be war overnight
these people say. And assuming thf
validity of their argument, they builo
upon 1t the belief that the presence ol
this great naval and military force un'
der the shadow Of the Mexican flag Ii
actually welcome to the Diaz govern
ment.

Jewish New Year Falls 0n This
 Week Saturday

The beginning of the Jewish year 5e72 falls this year on Saturday, the 23d of September It is observed as a holy day from Friday evening, the 224 until sun down on Sunday, the 24th. and is the most solemn day or the Jewish calendar next to Yom kIp- nur or the Day of Atonement, The reference of Zikorown (Memorfal Dayl is found in Leviticus 2S: verse 24. which reads: "In the seventh day of the month in the first day of the month. shall ye have a Sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy conyocation.'' Ezra also refers to the day as holy to the Lord (Nc- hemiah 9;3).
 This is not mere day of rejoining like the secular New Year. It Is . day of memorial, Nor a day of re- mem brance, reminding the Jew of the duty of self examination and self judgment. .s
 TO arouse the conscience to this solemn task, the ceremony of sound ing the shofor or ram's horn, forms an important feature of the service.
 Among the orthodox Jews attain ment of this object is sought by set ting aside a few days before the New Years day for recital in the synagogue of penitential prayers call- ed selichos This continues until the ave of the day of atonement. This selichos (chanted in the minor key) before dawn in the dim lighted hous- es of worship, sounds the note of grief and contrition for the sins Of the past year.

BOOM FOR SOUTH END
Big Hotel at Lordship Manor and 9
 Trolley Line on South Main street Promised Soon.

Especial to the Evening Farmer) Stratford, Sept. 21.--The future of the Old Lordship farm now rechrist- ened Lordship Manor by it's new own CTS has excited considerable curiosity here and the report that a big hotel was to be established there has not diminished it. The representatives of the Wilkenda Land company yester- day confirmed the rumor and said that negotiations have been in prog ress all summer and that parties have been found who will erect one of the biggefst hotels along the shore on the bluff facing the Sound and territory reserved for cottages. This company owns all the land in the vicinity ex- cepting the United States reserve for light house purposes. Lordshfp Farm, the original title, extends farther into the Sound than any other point in the state, of Connecticut. The thirty acres on the bluff which has been reserved for the hotel commands a view of the Sound unequalled in the state. It is an ideal spot for a large hotel. In the immediate vicinity If the hotel site are reservations of from three to 30 acres for residences. The development of this colony will mean much to the town of Stratford. Work on the new hotel which will be palatial in it's size and appoint ments will begin this fall if possible and at the latest next spring. The company promises all buyers in their plan transportation connections. This means that the tro1leys will either be extended down Main street to the park or a service established through the meadows. The extension of the trolleys down Main street would open up a valuable territory for building on South Main street The Connecti- cut company have already asked for franchise on this street and should the line be built there will be boom in South End property.

USEFUL COURSES TO BE
 TAUGHT AT Y. w. c. A

The Y. w. c. A. is including in its course this winter a new class. un- der the direction of Dr. Wason. First aid to the injured is always a popular subject and when taken seriously a most necessary, and practical line of study to pursue. The information gained through this course will en- able one to act intelligently and quickly in all kinds of emergencies, as in the case of broken bones, burns, poisoning. drowning asphyxia and ov- grooming with gas. The use of splints how to do hurried dressings, the prop CT methods of bandaging, making of poultices and the necessity of improv- ing will be dwelt upon.
 There will be twelve lessons in the course, the class meeting once each week. All who desire to register for such a course should call at the office 10S7 Broad street and talk it over with the secretaries
 Cooking, gymnastics, millinery, dressmaking both afternoon and even- ing French. German, English nursing and elocution are all being tuaght this winter and the opportunity for good practical instruction has never been greater.

HARD HEARTED SAILOR
 STEALS BOYS PET

New London, Sept. 21.-There is an almost broken hearted little boy liv- ing in the vicinity of the New Lon- don Marine Iron Works and one of the meanest of the despicable creat- ures who infest the earth is probab- ly now ill-treating the pet dog, the loss of which is the cause of the boys grief. Yesterday afternoon in company with several other boys the little fellow went to the works to. pick up chips for kindling. With him was his dog, rope attached to his collar
 A sailor on one of the bony fishing vessels nearby came along and de- spite the cries and protests of the small owner and the other boys re- moved the dogs collar and carried off the animal to the boat. The boy went home weeping bitterly and hfS mother telepnoned to the police sta- ton. When a patrolman finally ar rived dog, sailor and boat had dis appeared.

 Hartford, Sept. 21.-To the credit senators, Paddock, Bartlett and Me- Neil stood like the rock of Gibraltar for the veto of Governor Baldwin and cast their votes against the Connec- ticut River bill which by common consent has been dubbed the biggest "grab bilP' that, has made its ap- pearance in the legislative halls of Connecticut in many years.
 Great pressure had been wrought upon nearly every member of the senate. Influences that have not been exerted in behalf of legislation here tofore this session were brought to bear. Some of the biggest men in the state were called in to give a hand. What must have been the most costly lobby of the session not even excepting the one that was ar rayed against the Judson Utility measure worked overtime in an effort to put the bill over" as the boys say.
 Princely fortunes waited upon the bills passage. Not a mere question of paltry thousands or of hundreds of thousands but of millions of money If the group. of slick gentlemen who undertook to have this legislation passed were working on a contingent basis there must indeed be lamenta- tions and gnashing of teeth for rich indeed should have been their re- ward had they succeeded in their task.
 One can scarcely form an adequate idea of what was going on in the sen- ate chamber Tuesday afternoon when the gum shoe brigade was engaged in preventing quorum from sitting. It will be many a day before like scene is again witnessed. In many respects it was not unlike the spec tacle which was presented on the floor of the House two years ago when the lobbyists were engaged in changing votes after a favorable vote had been cast for an honest utilities bill
 Judge Banks of Fairfield was Speaker and was presiding that day. His view of what was going on was remarkably defective and it was not until members of the House had more than once called his attention to the disgraceful conduct that he felt com pelled to order the House cleared of the lobbyists. But the deadly work had been done in the meantifno and an honest expression of, the views of the members had been suddenly con- verted into a disapproving vote.
 Those who heard the words of for ,mer Mayor and Senator Edward F. Hooker of Hartford, when he de- nounced the lobbyists. will not soon forget his merciless arraignment of the bold buccaneers who were engaged in exploiting the State for the benefit of their own pockets.
 Senator Hooker has many times spoken out in meeting, but never be- fore was he so plain spoken or seem ingly so much in earnest. His pie ture of the lobby holding death-like grip upon the law makers of the State when matter of purely private con- cern was being considered was most impressive.
 Senator Donovan hitherto has been the plainest spokesman of the people in the Senate, but the distinguished
