 Boston observers shrewdly conclude that the sudden shift of the Washing ton expresses from the Steamer Mary land to a dry-land route was not due to the Panama canal act and its ri dicu1ous steamboat rider The com morably organized concern, would not wake up at midnight to discover this obstacle. They say down East that the management was informed that examination of the Maryland showed that the new requirements for safety of passengers were not and could not be observed and the penalties for dis Hence the instantaneous shift, after tickets had been sold for that nights trips
 On the whole it is a. good thing. We doubt if anybody ever made the Mary land trip without feeling that there was a big risk about it. For one thing. sflunting loaded sleeping cars upon a boat is inevitably attended with danger. This very train once all but slid one such car into the water at Jersey City. The car hung over the edge. The dangers of collision by the crowded water route were continuous and serious. It was a. fine cooling ex- perience in summer day, but that didn't balance the risk. It is well that it was abandoned before any ac- cident came along.
 As for the new route, taking the cars away down to Naugatucki June ton and then back up again to the Poughkeepsie Bridge we beg to sub welcome to come over the Highland division and then go out by the Cen tral New England.

THE MAYORS
 DEBT MADNESS

Mayor Wilson's administration is debt mad It is obsessed with a pur- pose to infliet @ great public debt 1aszasa Bridgeport. It cannot rest until it plasters all the city's homes with mortgage.
 One needless expenditure is propos- ed upon the top of another.
 The latest wild cat scheme of spend thrift government is to make a bond issue of S5,Ooo to install the manual system of fire alarm.
 What does Bridgeport want of a manual system of fire alarm? What use has Bridgeport for such a sys- tenn? This is the system of large cit ies, like New York, which are of such magnitude that the automatic alarm is impracticab1e.
 For a city of moderate size, like Bridgeport, the automatic system is tfs best and much the best.
 But assume that expert fire fighters differ upon the question, what need can Bridgeport show at this time for changing it's system of fire alarm?
 Have it's fire losses increased re- gently? No. Are it's fire losses greater than those of other cities? No.
 Bridgeport has one of the lowest fire loss rates in the United States. It has one of the best fire departments in the United States.
 In fact the department is aggrandiz- ed out of all proportion to the actual necessities of the case.
 Yet the demand for further enor- nous increase in expense continues to come, not really from the department itself, but from outside sources, the owners of public services who want the city to be heavily in debt, and the insuranc companies who would cheer fully make Bridgeport, or any other city spend $5 to save them ten cents
 The burden of Mayor Wilson's cry ever since he took office has been, .'The city must go into debt" It was a parrot cry, but he has uttered it steadily
 We want a bigger city, he has said, parroting the views of his public service corporation sponsors.
 And his only conception of a bigger city was a Bridgeport loaded to the gunwales with debt, in which gas. water and electric light might be sold at the top of the market to the fieec- ing Of confiding people.
 For the presentation of this bond is- sue the presidential election has been chosen. when the people are busy about other and more important mat ters.
 The mayor and the public service l corporations have had quite enough of special elections. They do not intend | to concentrate the attention of the vot- 1 CTS upon their debt creating program.
 This bond issue they have slipped in- to the important presidential election. hoping that the people will forget it, l while the political worzers-the same l whom the mayor assembled and in to hustle for the last bond ing scheme-are busy putting thel thing over.''
 Bridgeport has seen some queer things during it's years of municipal existence. but the queerest is the all most fanatica1 attempt to create al great debt for a series of projects no one Of which can be justified in any forum where honesty and intelligence sit in judgment.

PrehIstorIo pInosaurs Found.


What is believed to be an important
find Of hitherto undiscovered species
and genera of prehistoric land reptiles
has just been made. Twelve fossils
or skeletons Of dinosaurs, among them
two complete brontosaurs-the largest
animals that have ever lived-were
unearthed from the side Of cliff nine
miles north of Jansen, Utah, in what
was, In distant ages, river; as the
cobbles, mussel shells, and sand en-.
vironing the bones showed. Besides
these specimens of the extinct bronto-
saurus fossil, remains Of several stego-
saurus specimens were also brought
to light. These, Mr.. Hartley M. Phelps
tells US, are very rare. The stegosau-
rus was the most grotesqque animal
that ever existed. The brontosaurus
often attained length Of 80 feet, but
1t had small head. Its neck and tail
were short. Like the stegosaurus, it
lived by eating succulent herbs. 1t
had powerful legs, 10 feet or so in
length. The diplodocus measured 70
feet long, had an immense body, pow
erful legs, and an enormously long tail
and long neck, but small head. 1t
lived in swamps and ate waterweeds.

The Hungry 5uIIfroq.


'Did you ever know that the bull
frog was carnivorous, or, in other
words, a cannibal?" said Nick Gilbert,
one Of the operators at the electrical
bureau. 81 never did until several
years ago, when it was demonstrated
almost before my very eyes. I have
been interested in fish culture for
years and have made study of their
habits. So that could study them at
closer range, built big aquarium in
my yard, one that held $50 gallons
and along with fine collection OF fish
/ stocked it with seven fine big bull
frogs.
"The sparrows used to drink water
from the edge of the aquarium and
this day, while my wife was looking
on, one Of the frogs leaped UP, caught
the sparrow and took it beneath the
water. l could hardly believe that g.
frog would attack and vanquish such
a fighter as the English sparrow is
known to be, so in the interest of sci
ence emptied the aquarium, and
sure enough, down in the bottom was
the sparrow. The frog had taken him
down below, but either could not swal-
low him or else did not have the time.
Following that began to miss some
valuable Japanese fantails, and, after.
removing all the frogs but one, waitedI
until I missed another fish, when
killed Mr.. Frog and found that he was
the robber Before that believed thei
fish had been stolen by cats. The bull
frog is aggressive and can take his
own part any time"
