HAD A RIGHT TO THE SPOT
Shirt Waist Peddler Easily Proved
That II Was Most Valuable
Place for Him.

Missouri was not the New York
poIiceman's native home, nevertheless
showing did him some good. He
had undertaken to settle who con
sidered a certain spot on the pave
ment worth purchasing at the price
" a bloody nose. His livelihood ac-
cording to the banana man, depend
ed upon his standing at that partic-
uEar spot, and the shirt waist ped
der was equally positive that if he
moved on starvation would be his
lot. The policeman's prayer for
light was cut short by the arrival Of
a woman who wanted to buy a waist.
4 wear No. 49," she said. "1Here
is a waist that + ike, but ii looks
like a mighty small 49,"
CRY it on" urged the peddler.
~ can't, right here in the street.
said she.
@JuSt step into this hall" said the
peddler. "and knock on the door at
the left. The woman will let you
try it on there"
His look of triumph cowed the ba-
mana man and convinced the police
man. "See?" he said. ''That is
why | have to stand here. | meet a
lot of customers like that woman.
and it isn't every place where I can
make arrangements for them tC
come in and try on"
The banana man moved on.

COURSE OF SICK MENTALITY
One Woman's Idea Of the Phases
Through Which Those Affliet-
ed Passed to the End.

A lady well known in Englenl
writes to a London newspaper as fol-
lows;
What are the phases that the suf-
fragist goes through before she
reaches the state of mind which en-
ables her to break windows, set the
alters on fire and throw hatchets at
cabinet ministers?
Temperamentally she is the
splendid enthusiast !" A great
ideal" appeals TO her. In Single
minded devotion to her ideal, she
decides to give he. life to it. She
dwells on the one idea to the exclu-
sion Of all other aspects of life, n-
til the continual focusing of the
mind on her one object produces 4
ralsifcd vision. The correcting
IDEAS, never being allowed to come
into play, are atrophied and the
mental balance is destroyed. Now
comes a longer or shorter stay at
the halfway house Of fanaticism,
until the tired and Respondent $50
cial reformer" reaches the final stage
Of monomania. This is the road
along which, in the company Of a
good many noble women and men,
the sufrragist now drags her weary
feet, producing disruption, hatred,
violence and retaliation instead of
furthering the cause she started
with such splendid devotion to carry
to victory.
Long-deferred justice has driven
her into mental alteration tho
pity Of the waste of such valuable
material! II is the finest and most
sensitive instruments which get out
Of tune the quickest!

GUARD THE WHITE HOUSE.

Although the White House is q
government institution, the honor Of
protecting the chief executive and
his household during the sleeping
hours deyelves upon a specially Sc
lected corps Of Washington police.

only residence in America which is

Cleanliness

Many diseases cause infection
of the sputum or spital. When
this infected sputum IS deposited
where it may eyaporate, dry,
and turn to DUST, the little par
ticles of dust contain the germs
Of the disease in question. This
dust is carried about frorl place
TO place in the house by cur
rents Of air and may serve to
infect those who breathe it. The
humps, s%ca.iet fever, diphtheria,
diseases spread thru the sput-
cerebro-mcDingitis, infantile par
alysis, influenza, tonsilitis and
others.
When speaking Of cleanliness,
it should be understood that
this germ-iaden dust is the dirt
that is to re dreaded. Cleanli-
ness, then, means care in the
guarding o. bacteria and in pre-
venting the spread Of bacteria by
excreta. Giue ordinary dirt such
as the sol ashes, etc, which Is
brought mo the house on the
feet or is blown in, is practically
harmless.

$4,000 GALLONS A DAY
Are Flowing Into Barre's Reservoirs Ac'
cording To Measurements.

People who have been scared into aban-
doning cold wateK as an everyday bev-
erage in favor of something stronger or
more palatable may derive a measure
of consolation from figures computed by
City Engineer George A. Reed relative
to the total inflow of water into the
city's reservoirs. On the face of the en-
gineer's findings after carefully measur-
ing the flowage at Orange and at the
Martin brook yesterday the water situa-
tion seems to have lost something of the
aspects OF calamity, although there is
still need for conservation of the pres
ent supply.
From measurements made by the weir,
it is estimated that $4,000 gallons of
water are daily flowing into the Orange
reservoir, the Martin brook and the
Scott brook Yesterday the engineer,
superintendent and members of the wa
ter committee pentrated the country
above Orange reservoir for distance of
several miles. They were bent on find
ing out Just how much water was low-
ing into the reservoir. Above Lords
mills, so called, the weir registered a
depth which when later translated into
gallons. showed Nndl OfD,tuV gdiioHsi nc
eording to the table of computation, are
daily making their way into the reser
voir. At Nelson's mill, the proprietor is
catching as much water as possible for
his own temporary use and the quantity
diverted into this channel each day IS
100000 gallons, which in the end is
available for local consumption. The
little stream that feeds the Martin res
ervoir is yielding 100000 gallons each
"a hours, doubtless larger volume than
most people have been led to believe.
The weir registered 10000 gallons for the
Scott brook.
To-day's official inspection of the wa
ter supplies was postponed until to-mor-
row, when the aldermsnic water COM
mittee and Others win look over the
three reservoirs. Pumping at the Smith
stock farm is still under way and the
reservoir is being gradually filled.
1t is expected that some 25 days will
ensue before the big basin can be filled
by the pumps from the Wlilliamstown
branch.

TWO TRAINMEN ARRESTED.
Engineer of White Mountain Express
and Flagman of Bar Harbor Train.

| New Haven, Conn.,, Sept. 5.--August B.
| Miller, engineer of the White Mountain
express, and Charles Fl. Murray, flagman
| of the Bar Harbor express, which We're
! involved in the fatal wreck at North
Haven Tuesday, were arrested by Cor
oner Mix last night, charged with hay-
| ing criminally caused the death Of Royal
| Hotchkiss, one of the victims. They
were both placed in $1,000 bail under a
coroner's warrant, effective until "a
hours after the coroner has rendered a
verdict in the inquest into the catas-
trophe, which he began in private yes
| terday.
BAH for Miller was furnished by the
local Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers and Firemen. Friends of Murray,
who does not belong to any railroad
organization, it is said, are making ef-
forts to raise the required sum.
Both men, who have been detained by
the coroner in the county jail since the
day of the wreck as material witnesses,
were arrested after they had given tes-
timony at night session of the inquest.
The pair, who, it is said have told wide
ly conflicting stories as to the causes of
the accident, were examined separately.
Miller was the first TO be taken into
custody. Though gaunt and nervous, he
was in fighting mood "They have
called me a seapegoat,p he said. i am
mo scapegoat. ] want TO say that
have nothing to fear. ! am going to
clear myself. / have been demoralzed
by all that has been printed about this
wreck, but | don't care so long as the
truth comes out. That is all / want"
Miller was served with a subpoena as
he left the court room, calling upon him
to appear at the inquiry into the wreck
to be begun to-day by the interstate
commerce commission. Murray was
locked in cell shortly before midnight
for lGck of bondsman.
Inspector Belnap said that he had been
informed that Murray had testified at
the joint preliminary investigation Tues
day by the coroner, public utilities COM
mission and railroad officials, that he
had placed the torpedoes six or seven
telegraph poles back distance of from
996 to ! ,l62 feet. Engineer Miller tes-
titled on the other hand, Mr. Belnap
said. that the torpedoes were only two
poles back, or 332 feet, when he heard
them go off.
From his CELL Murray described his
efforts to stop the White Mountain ex-
press just before it crashed into the
Bar Harbor train.
Murray denies that he was standing
on the track throwing stones, as re-
ported, when the White Mountain bore
down.
