A Correction

In some of the editions of the American Issue for
January there appeared this quotation the first
page:
Ah then shall all mems good
Be each mans rule, and universal peace
Lie like a shaft of light the land
This expression credited to Leo Tolstoy.
Mr. c. S. Bishop, general secretary of the Y. M.
c. A. at Kansas City, Missouri, calls attention the
fact that this was tterance from Tennyson instead
of Tolstoy Mr. Bishop is right and the correction is
appreciated.

A1cibiddeS and Mr.. Taft

Alcbiades, the famous Athenian, a great
sport in his day. He slapped the of his faherin
law consorted with lewd women, got drunk and broke
the nose off statute of the goddess Mercury. Once,
invited to party in the house Of a FRIEND he went
there drunk and logged off lot of slverware. Next
he got into row with his wife which attracted the
attention of the archon.
All Greece of four centuries B. c. talking
about the exploits of Alcbiades, and Putarch wrote
the whole scandal down in book, which is still read
in most all languages
Alcbiades had extraordinary dog, which cost
him seventy minae and which wonder. So, in
order to divert attention from his scandalous exploits
he cut off his dogs tail That set everybody to talk
ing about the dog and specializing to why Aclblades
cut the tail off, In discussing the dogs tall the people
forgot all about the other things, and history would
have forgotten also if Plutarch had not writ the
whole business down in the book
American tongues wagging from Boston
Harbor to Golden Gate about the conduct of the late
Mr. Taft in exercising his veto powers the Webb
bill in order pull the bootleggers out OF the hole 1t
is remembered that Mr.. Taft gave assurances to dry
leaders that he would sign such BILL and repeatedly
expressed himself favoring the proposal Then,
when the measure was actually passed and horde of
liquor men swooped down on Washington demanding
the veto of the BILL Mr.. Taft not only promptly came
across with the demanded veto but he held the pro-
posal up till the last hour to make it as difficult
as possible to pass the over his veto
The act of the late president has created scandal
of no small dimensions, and he is getting the worst
of the discussion.
If Mr.. Taft would take the from Alcibiades
and cut off his dogs tail stand on his head in the
middle of the street, do outlandsh thing, he
might divert attention from his scandaous veto OF
BILL the sole purpose of which bill was to Withdraw
federal protection from chronic lawbreakers.

ELECTRIC ZONE DOUBLED.
Extended to New Haven Soon--Work Is
Nearly Complete.

New Haven, Conn, March I0.-The
limits of New Haven have been reached
in the extension Of the electriication of
the New Haven railroad from Stamford
to this city. The foundation of the con-
crete bases of the iron bridges have been
laid as far as West Haven and within
few weeks the system can be put into
operation TO New Haven, more than
doubling the electric zone of the railroad.
Less than Ave miles more OF concrete
foundations, iron poles and truss work
remain to be installed and the work of
stringing the wires from Stamford to
this city will require only a short time.
The railroad officials refuse to set date
for the probable opening of the extern
sion to this city, but unofficial estimates
make it between May and June J.
1t was the intention Of the railroad
when the extension was begun to this
city last April, practically year ago,
to inaugurate the extension progressive
". making a terminus first at South
Norwalk, then, one at Bridgeport, as the
zone was extended to each. This plan
has proved impracticable, one adverse
reason being the difficulty OF stablng
Engines in each successive city that was
made terminal, The extension will
be opened this spring all the way to
New Haven.

is dawning for the American city; but
daylight cannot come except as we build
for good citizenship in our schools and
shape the course of the developing citi.
zen for the realization of higher ideals.
The true function of the American

and building Of the body are blended
with the development of the higher
qualities Of soul and conscience. We

Court Finds Great Provocation In Case
of Mother of Ten Chill
dren

Providence, March l0.--Mrs. Agnes
Nadeau will serve three months i'm
prisonment for having shot and killed
her husband, Thomas Nadeau. That will
be punishment enough in the opinion of
Judge Brown, who, in pronouncing SEN
tence Saturday, after the state had OBJ
tanned conviction of manslaughter, said
that the defendant was laboring under
great provocation when the act was COM
mitted.
The Nadeaus had been married 80
years, and during all that time, the
court said, the wife had been subjected
to cruelties and indignities by the hus-
hand. The climax came on a pay day
when she asked Nadeau for money with
which to buy food for her 10 children,
who, she said, were suffering from hun
ger. The reply was threat to beat
her and the woman took revolver from
a bureau drawer and shot him.
The family came here from Sher-
