MANY ENJOY SKATING.
Crowd at the New Pond in Mohegan
Park Despite the Cold Weather.

The cold weather of the past two
days has made ice very fast and there
are now between and inches on
ponds about this section. The icemen
are smiling and planning to begin cut
ting quickly
At Fairview reservoir there are five
inches of ice on the pond, the water
being at the same level as last meas
ured 121 inches down.
Many were at the new pond in Mo-
began park on Sunday, enjoying the
skating which the cold snap has pro-
vided. The cold did not seem to keep
many away, but had it been somewhat
warmer il is doubtful if the pond
would have accommodated all who
wanted to go.
The cold varied from to 10 below
zero in the past two days. but moder-
ated some on Sunday. thoMh after
midnight Sunday night it again reacn-
ed the zero point. 1t was less tedious,
however, as the cutting wind died out
Saturday.

JUDGE REED DIDN'T
BOTHER WITH NAMES.
Pronunciation Taxed Beyond Limit
and Number is Used.

Judges Of the superior court are not
supposed to be able TO give cor
rect pronunciation of all the foreign
names that come before them, es-
pecially when they have not had
chance of a rehearsal with them. Soma
judges Of the court, who have resid-
ed here. have tried it, but not with
marked success. but Judge Joel H.
Reed got around some Jaw crackers"
by adopting another method at Hart
ford, when he started in on the short
calendar docket in the session Of the
court and called the names of the
parties to the actions until he got well
down on the list. when he came to
the case Of Michael Collogerakas
against Michael Macanios, the Judge
didn't hesitate, but called 1914, the
number Of the case, instead of calling
the names of the htigants and the in
novation caused all the lawyers to
laugh.

Eradication of Fever Tick.

Fort Worth, Texas, Feb "a
The results of the efforts of the
Cattle Raisers' Association of Texas
and the United States Bureau of
Animal Industry for the eradication
of the Texas fever tick are very
gratifying and local authorities in
every section of the infected area
are cooperating with the federal
authorities In waging a systematic
and intelligent war against this
pest, which is more harmful to the
stockman than the boil weevil is to
the farmer.
1t is estimated that the fever tick
levies tax against the livestock in
dustry of Texas of s10,000,000 an
nually while the ravages of the boil
weeyil amounts to only 100000
per annum.

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP


Professor unna of Hamburg,

leading French dermatologist, dis
covered that mierobe causes bald
ness Their theory has time and
again been amply verified through
research experiments carried on I'M
der the observation of eminent
scientists. This microbe lodges in
the Sebum, which is the natural
hair oil, and when permitted to
flourish it destroys the hair follicles
and in time the pores entirely close,
and the scalp gradually takes on a
shiny appearance. When this hap
pens there is no hope of the growth
of hair being revived.
We have a remedy which will
we honestly believe, remove dand-
ruff exterminate the microbe, pro

Tresspassing on Railroads.

\ A few days Ego q citizen of Del
4 Rio and his little boy were killed by
1 a railroad train while they stood on
a bridge looking at the water rush
4 ing over dam below They had
been walking for pleasure and stop
ped on the bridge. which is not far
from curve. The noise of the rush
ling waters prevented them from
hearing the train and the curve pre-
vented the locomotive engineer
| from seeing them until 1t was too
late.
The incident recalls statement
by Hon Brown F. Lee of San An
geo. recently published In the Texas
press. Mr.. Lee cites figures showing
that 100 out, of 279 persons killed
by Texas railroad trains last year
were trespassers, and that 49,113
trespassers wore killed in the Unit
ed States, being 76 per cent of all
killed in the operation of railroad
trains during 10-year period AS
he suggests. something ought to be
done to stop the trespassing upon
railroads. Human life is too yalua-
Bile to be sacrificed by carelessness.
Besides. there is an element of
rank injustice in requiring rail-
way company to pay damages for
injuries to persons who have no
right to be upon its tracks.
The law wisely provides for the
protection of railway employees and
l ms NV ,trio l,1,
enG multiplied safety devices. 1t
ldoes for the conservation of hui
man life and for the preservation of
the happiness Of relatives and
friends. 1t should, also, devise some
method for at least minimizing
deaths and injuries to trespassers.
A railroad track should not be
fused as footpath or promenade.
/ Railroad corporations manage
to keep livestock off their right Of
way by fences and stock guards, but
these do not deter human trespas-
sers who move at, will upon any
railroad track that lies in the direc-
ton of their journey.
Crossing railroads upon the pub
lie highways. which is necessary
Icauses many deaths and injuries
which 1t is impossible to prevent
But tresspassing beyond the high
way ought to be prohibited by law
with penalties sufficient to restrain
the person of average intelligence.

lection of human life and simple
