The delicate perfume waited by q

heavy air of the ballroom, and the
swish Of the dancers feet over the

time to the Whispering tinkle Of the
mandolins. With a curious smile on

To Fight Ice Barons.

Realizing that the local ice barons can charge them just about what they want to, for the rest of this season and can boost the price just as far as they want to, and realizing that they were at the mercy of the dealers, the retail butchers of Bridgeport. at mass meeting which was largely attended laid plans to form a stock company that will begin opera tion early in the spring for the establish ment of an artificial ice plant.
 This will be formed to supply the merchants in the association alone, but if there is a surplus it may be sold to the general public. According to inves- tigations of the butchers. the ice con- panies control all the natural Ice ponds Tn this state and in Massachusetts and it IS impossible for anybody except the dealers to secure 8 supply Of natural ice The only means left is an artificial ice plant. No committee was appointed but the more active dealers agreed to get together within month or two and form the company to manufacture artificial ice. !.

Meat aMith Trimminas.y

Pineapple chunks and roast beef as a dinner dish sounds like return Co the habits of our forefathers. who al- ways wanted something sweet with their meat. Sir Walter Besant tells us how in Tudor days most peoples teeth were black on account of their diet. Honey was poured lavishly over the beef, and sugar employed to give a hllip to the poultry, and even the wine had to be much sweetened to please the palate of the medlaeval gourmet To this day we ourselves add currant jelly to our mutton, apple sauce to our pork, and in Germany stewed pears form the usual trim ming" of chicken.-London Spectator

President Howard Elliott of the New York. New Haven 6 Hartford, sent the following telegram Saturday morning to the Passenger Agents Association in lieu of the address which, as President of the Northern Pacific Railway, he had intended to deliver at St. Paul on their way to visit Yellowstone Park:
 II wish might personally express to each one of you my appreciation of the honor your Association has paid me in asking me to speak at your meeting. wish, too, that might express to you in person my appre citation of the good work done by your membert in building up the various sections of the country that you represent, and in helping to create public opinion fair to the rail roads. A great responsibility rests with the travelling passenger agent for on his ability to understand and explain the difficult conditions confronting the American railroads depends very largely the maintenance of those cordial rela- tions that should exist between the rail- roads and the public that they are try ing to serve.
 You are to see and enjoy along the Northern Pacific Railway and in the Yellowstone Park a most productive country, and the most interesting sixty miles square in the world. hope that the trip will be a delight and all inspira. tion to all of you and to your families.
 "Ere long, you may come to see New England, with its points of historical in- terest its beautiful mountains and val. leys its wonderful lakes and woods and it's thousand miles of seacoast, where every breeze blows from the Atlantic. This is country full of resources and possibilities not yet developed a won derful vacation land, and a hearty well come awaits you here from the manage ment of the New Haven and New Eng land Lnes."

Persian Lsaend About Goats.

In Persia there k n legend regard Ing the goat. which tells us that the goat without fault of her own. excited the prejudice of mankind until her life was unbearable. The powers then made 1t possible for her to find susten- ance on inaccessible mountain tops where man could not modest her. and she was given the power to find by in stinct the leaf of healing. so that she would never become i'll. And afteg centuries of isolation she was to return and live again among the haunts of men, to be a 'blessed' animal and to be indispensable to his needs, alone having power to save him from many troubles.-Farm and Preside.

New Haven Will be Safest Road.


 The New York, New Haven & Hart ford railroad is to be made the safest railroad in the United States" Howard Elliott, its newly-elected head, declared in a statement issued Saturday night.
 First steps in this direction will be taken he said, within the next two weeks when the Shore Line Division. on which occurred the series of fatal wreoks dur. the regime of Charles s. Mellen. will be cut in two and placed under separate management in order to obtain "closer super vision."
 All sleeping cars that run over New Haven rails will be of steel before Jan. uary 1, if the Pullman company can fur nish them, and rush orders have been sent to other CAT builders who now have steel cars for the company under cou- tract calling for the expenditure of S8,- 500. GOO according to the statement.
 Orders never formally issued by the previous management. have been given, he sad, to rush work on the new signal system to replace the old "banjo" type charged with the responsibility for the North Haven wreck. The sum of $965,- 900 for improvement of the system be. tween New Haven and Springfield was voted yesterday, MT. Elliott announced, by the roads executive committee.
 Charles s, Mellen, who is reported to have been retained by the New Haven, in an advisory capacity. has no con- nection whatever with the New Haven, road, MT. Elliott made emphatically clear.
 "The important point is that each or ganization (of the entire New Haven system) will have only its own affairs to look after; will be accessible to the pub- lio, will spend considerable time on the road, and will be able to give better aud safer service to the public and help build up the business of the country and con- sequently of the railroad, the statement continues.
 Mir. Elliott appeals to the Massachusetts public utilities commission to permit the New Haven to issue its proposed $67,. 100000 debenture bonds on the ground that "if it cannot get the money, 1t can not do the work"
 J. P. Morgan would continue as ali rector of the road. Mir. Elliott said.
 The interstate commerce commission hearing Saturday developed testimony by Engineer Miller of the White Noun tain express which collided with the Bar Harbor express that he had done two mems duty during the week prevloLs to the catastrophe. ..
 It was also brought out that 3S per cent of the Pullman company's cars are now of steel and that none but steel cars are now being manufactured by the com. pany.
 Commissioner McChord. who pres ided at the interstate commerce commission hearing, left Saturday night for Wash ington to prepare his finding.

Judament Day For Tongues.

We have often fancied. in penitential moments. a day of judgmeUt for us who write. when we shall stand in
 flushed array before the ultimate critic and answer the awful question, What have you done with you languageT There shall be searchings of soul that morning and searchings of forgotten pages of magazines and "best sellers" and books of every sort, for the cad ence that may bring salvation. But many shall seek and few shall find, and the goats shall be sorted out in droves, condemned to an eternity of torture, none other than the everlast- ing task of listening to their own prose read aloud.-Atlantic.
