THE STATE CONSTITUTION.
CJournaI-Courier.5

The announcement is made that the socialists of the state have voted to draft a new constitution for the regu- Iation of Connecticut, and will offer it approval. The socialists are going to take a hand in the movement for improved constitutional conditions in this state because they expect to have body when it meets again next Jan uary.
 We shall await with much interest the introduction of this instrument of government. especially with reference to the clause dealing with the question Of representation. Thus far the two older political parties have viewed the proposal to have representation In practica Iy the same standpoint The Democrats have yielded a point so far as representation in state nominating conventions is concerned and the Re publicans living in the large centers of population, have attempted to rec ognize the same principle but without success in their nominating conveu- tionS, but when it is proposed to base representation in the general assem- bly, on the princir'e of population Democratic and Republican members from the small towns stand shoulder to shoulder It cannot be made a par tiSan question with them. They were in fact never more surprised in their
 lives than whens during the ada11n1S- tratiOQ Of Governor Mclean, f they found that they had authorized a con stitutionaI convention.
 We shall look with great curiosity for the attitude of the socialists to- ward this phase of the question In a general way they have proceeded about their political undertakings with a p1 O. found respect for bed rock principles. Traditional doctrines have had no in terest for them. The question is in connection with any movement to re- wise the constitution, are the social ists of Connecticut wholly without small town prejudices? There are men resident in the small towns of the state who are firm believers person ally in 8 system of representation bas- ed upon popula ton, but for purely local reasons and influences they tegouid no sooner think Of voting for it than they would of cutting their right han Q off at the wrist. The socialists will make a hit with a great many people, if. in drafting their proposed s ate constitution, they Ignore the small town tradition. and seek to give Con necticut a truly representative govern ment in that respect.

TRIAL OF ATHEIST
 WHO KILLED SON
 AND TRIED SUICIDE
Especial from United Press.9 ,


 London, Jan 1s-A strange document was read. today. at the preliminary hearing Of Albert Reeves. an atheist, who unsuccessfuIly attempted suicide after murderfng his infant son As- cribing the deed to falling eyesight, Reeves, before slashing his throat with a razor, wrote the following which was introduced as evidence:
 After careful consideration of all the circumstances. have, come to the conclusion that my son, Augustus, be- ing part Of myself. must perish with me. Among the reasons which prompt this belief are the following:
 Firstly. if it should be that this child is cursed, as is his father, with a wanton moral nature, then would be doing the best for both it and so- ciety by exterminating the boy.
 Secondly, I do not consider his mother qualified to rear him properly without my guidance, she being out of sympathy with my views and prin- ciples-
 ''Thirdly. as the child. would. if 1eft start out economically handicapped, have thought it best to save him from the maeIstrom of modern industrial strife.''
 Reeves defense is insanity.

SOUVENIR NIGHT
Grape Arbor Grill to Observe the
 Event Tonight

Tonight is souvenir night at the new Grape Arbor grill in the Allan tic hotel and 1t is expected the grill will be filled throughout the evening. Manager R. F. McNamara has pre- pared a very pleasing program for friends and no doubt all will be pres ent on this occasion. The grill, which was opened to the public a week ago. has filled a long felt want in the estimation of the hotel man. agement.
 On the opening night the patron age was so large that it was decided to have a souvenir night at which time the patrons will be given a very orchestra for the purpose of render ing a delightful program and many surprises will be in store. Manager McNamara stated last evening he did not wish to give out what the sou venirs will be, but he added they will be very pleasing to the ladies and one which all will admire.

DIAMONDS PAY YOU LARGE
 PROFITS

Said a present day philosopher. ''Every body takes you at your own vaIuation,' meaning that appearance begets a good impression. \ diamond is tho sign manual of success and prosperity. It pays big profits in the battle of business or the battle of love. Look prosperous. prosperity comes to you.
 In addition. there is always the certain knowledge that diamond values can never decrease. The SUD- ply can never keep up with the growth of wealth and population.
 Only epertS can determine their true worth. Confidence in the dealer Is the only guarantee of value receiv- ed. Confidence Is born of experience, not the experience of one buyer. but tho experience Of hundreds, covering many years. Satisfaction experience of many means successful business. We point to our successful service of years. People who bought diamonds iIere years ago, are buying now.
 We can serve you. too.
