Who is the handsomest man in Ca- naan ?-Canaan (Ct.) News. Knowing the News editor as do, feel free to say that he could give the correct an swer to that pulchritudinous question without going outside his own sanctum sanotorum-Pittsfield Eagle.
 It may be even so but the rules of the beauty contest forbid that any votes be cast for any pulchritudinous sanctum sanctorumite. Meanwhile the contest still rages and 1t is yet an open question Who is the handsomest man in Ca- naan?

Vigorous methods may have to be re. sorted to, in this country, by the suffragettes, if they do not obtain recog- milton in any other way, according to Miss Elizabeth Freeman, the young American English leader, who took part in the English suffragette riots. She made that statement in meeting in New York Sunday night, and added : "In the meantime some of us might be practicing how to throw stones straight. Miss Freeman is plainly on the wrong tack. If the suffragettes are to depend on stone-throwing, their cause IS lost. The average woman couldn't hit man with stone, unless he stood behind her. If worst comes to worst, Miss Freeman, stick to the hat-pin, or the broomstick. That way victory lies.

MAC" LET THEHORSE GO.
Imposition on Good Nature Met its
 Just Reward.

OusI n6~dTus
 The unwisdom of imposing too much on good nature was exemplihed,on even ing long ago-say 40 years ago, or SO when somewhat cocky individual, by a single remark, subjected himself to a considerable monetary loss and consid- erable inconvenience and discomfort, and came within an ace of getting a sound thrashing, in the bargain, at the brawny hands of Warren Mcintyre, whose ori- ginal intention was to do the man favor.
 The individual referred to was a we'll known Sheffield character, who drove down, with a companion early in the evening, hitched his horse to a post in front of MT. McIntyre's house on Rail road street, and proceeded, with his com panion, to booze dispensary where they set about the task of loading up with O. be-joyful. Time flew by, but they paid no attention to it, and evidently took no thought of the horse. which they had left tied to McIntyre's hitching post, and which was becoming restive and home sick through long neglect in the lonely hours of the night.
 At late hour, when the night freight train went past, the horse took fright and began to rear and plunge and back and start, and just as MT. Mcintyre, who had heard the racket, came out to see what was the trouble, the animal had succeed ed in pulling off its bridle and was on the point of running away. MT. M. grabbed the head-stall in the nick of time and held the horse, which made violent eff forts to break loose. While he was re- straining and quieting the horse, the owner came along, with his companion, both feeling gay and independent as hogs on ice. As they came leisurely and un- steadily along, MT. Mcintyre accosted the owner:
 "You'd better hurry up here and take care of your horse; he's getting tired of waiting and is anxious to start for home"
 "Well," said the man, insolently- "You're holdin' him, ain't ye2" and as he made no effort to hurry forward to re- lieve Mcintyre of his self-appointed taskr the latter, in disgust, replied:
 "No, by! I ain't holding him." at the same moment releasing his hold on the bridle, whereupon the animal, find ing himself free, plunged forward and started on frantic run, up the road, the buggy, clattering at his heels, adding to his fright and increasing his speed. Near the railroad crossing he ran into fence, smashing the buggy to kindlings and stripping himself of the harness. When the horse escaped, the owner angrily ap-I preached Mcintyre with loud and pro- fane threats of personal vengeance, but finally permitted his more sensible com panion to drag him out of danger, with the warning that "he'l have us both on the way to the hospital in abouttwo min utes," and the convivial pair, almost com pletely sobered, started on foot for Shelf field.
