TWO MEN BLAMED
 FOR RECENT BURGLARiES.
Pair from Lyme May Have Entered Houses at Salem and Colchester.

Peter Maruda and Aiken Aroler, two men arrested in Lyme on Monday and bound over for trial on the charge of entering and robbing the house of Dr. Joseph B. Ely in Lyme, may possibly be connected with recent burglaries in Colchester and Salem, the authorities think. There were several burglaries in Salem and Colchester last week.
 Nearly every house on Salem street was entered by burglars Saturday night. Nothing of value wos taken. Entrance to all of the houses was gain ed by prying up the windows
 At Charles Bailey's house they took meat which was cooking on the stove and other victuals from the pantry and sat down to the kitchen table for a feast. Mir. and Mrs. Bailey were upstairs asleep and knew nothing of what was going on until the next morning.
 At Sherwood Miners they took a pair of trousers from the head of the bed and some small change which was Iyn1g on the table
 At Francis Rogers place the burglars were evidently frightened, as they started to pry 8 screen out of win- dow but left it part way out with the knife still in it. Footprints around the men, one being barefoot The only clue left which might be of any benefit was a receipt which was found some distance from Salem street near a place known IS the Willows.
 A gang recently broke into several houses fir Colchester. taking only food and clothing. and it is thought that it might be the same one that operated in Salem.

Washington, d. c., Oct. 90
Congressman Walker today intro
duced bill in the house asking
for an appropriation of 500, 900
to be expended by the govern
ment under the supervision of the
Agricultural Department on the

and production of sea island cotton.
10 speaking of the measure MIR.
Walker said: ~
FThe English government has
for the psst several years been ex-
pending slsrge sums of money in
the Improvement of the seed and
staple Of Egyptian cotton. By
scientific application and produc-
tiOn the grades of Egyptian cotton
have SO improved that they came
directly in competition with the
sea island cotton product.
MUST ADOPT SCIENTIFIC MEANS.
"Our people have heretofore
relied upon their natural advant-
ages in producing a superior long
staple cotton, but the time has
come when their. energies, must be
directed along more scientific lines
in the growth of this great pro-
duct. l will have the cooperation
of both Georgia senators and the
entire Georgia delegation in my
effort to pass this bill and Senator
Smith has assured me that he will
introduce a similar measure in the
Senate and lend his efforts towards
it's speedy enactment into law.
'Since the bill provides for ex-
perimental work in the improve
nent of the staple in Georgia,
Florida and South Carolina, l feel
confident that will have the
sympathy and cooperation of the
senators and representatives from
the other two states, and from the

Cold Wave Puts Atlanta
Charities To Working

Atlanta, Oct. 81. Charitable
organizations in Atlanta are
overwhelmed to-day by pitiful
calls from the unfortunate or i'm
provident classes who were caught
unprepared by the sudden cold
weather and have neither coal or
wood for their stoves or clothes
for their backs or sufficient COW
ering for their beds.
During warm weather it is a
comparatively simple matter to
live on a few cents a day in At
lanta. Six months out Of the
year it is possible to live out of
doors almost all the time.
But the minute the cold comes
it brings the pinch with it. This
year, because of the suddenness
of the change, it is said the suf-
fering is extreme.

Gen, Bennett H. Young, of Louis
vile, XIV, and his staff will be
asked to visit Jacksonville, where

Another Brief Filed
In Behalf OF Thaw

Concord, N. H., October 49,
In a supplementary brief on be-
half of Harry K. Thaw, filed by
his counsel with Governor Felker.
it is declared that Phaw has been
detained under arrest nearly six
weeks on a defective requisition
petition supported by the allega-
ton of an Indictment which
meyer existed and during all that
mo indictment has been OBJ
taif1ed.
The brief questions whether
the requisiton for Thaw's extra
dition is made in good faith and
whether the state of New York
demands Thaw's return for the
purpose of trying him for con-
spiracy or for the purpose of re-
incarcerating him in the Mattea-
wan hospital for the insane.
If it is the latter purpose
which actuates New York." the
brief says, lit is illegitimate;and
for the governor of New Hamp-
shire to honor the requisition
would be illegal.
The brief then gives what it
declares to be the facts as to the
attempt to indict Thaw. In con-
clusion the brief says:
1T is open to the governor of
New Hampshire to make due in
quiry whether Thaw was indict-
ed in New York and when the
facts are ascertained due weight
should be given in considering
the vital question of the good
faith of New York, to the fact
that up to the present time there
never had been an indictment
for conspiracy for Thaw in New
York"

hiuh Price For Straiuhtness

One of the most difficult problems in practical mechanics is to make a straight edge. How difficult it is may he judged from an incident that occur red in the shop of celebrated astro. aomical instrument maker.
 A patron asked what would be the price of "a perfect straight edge of glass thirty-siX inches long"
 Ut cannot be made perfect" said the instrument maker, but it conld proba- hly be made with limit of error amounting to only fraction of wave 'ength of light"
 "IIow much would that cost?'
 "About $4OOOO."
 It turned out that the customer want cd the straight edge for Scraper and that an error of one siXtyfonrth of an inch would not bother him.-St. IMils Republic.
