 $6,I2O TO TOWN
TerryvilIe Notifies Bond Com pany of Apparent Short

Terryville, Dec. 27.-F'or number Of years past the Plymouth town re- ports have shown an increasing g amount of uncoI1ected taxes and sev- era1 attempts have been made to has ten the collection of these back taxes with but little success
 . When John D. Wafdron became first selectman, he began to use pressure to compel MT. Barnes 70 collect these abck taxes, but without much result Incidentally he learned that several Of his thrifty neighbors were not cred ited by MT. Barnes with having paid their taxes, although they held re- ceipts. This caused the suspicion that something was wrong; so when the sAditors finished auditing the co11ec- tors books last September, MT. Wal dron took off a list Of all uncoI1ected taxes appearing on the tax collec- tors books.
 When Frank c. Barnes assumed the duties of tax collector twelve years ago, there was less than $3, GOO of un- collected taxes on the books. When he surrendered the books, there was over $15,O00 due, according to his own figures

One of the ambitions of the enter prising Philippine bureau of agricul- ture is to introduce the Panama hat industry into the Philippines, says the Scientific American. The plant from which the hats are made is now cul- tivated in Java. where hats are be- ing woven from it's leaves by Java nese women and children, and the product is said to compare favorably with the common grades turned out in South America.
 The method of preparing the leaves is very similar to that used in the Philippines in preparing sabutan leaves for weaving sabutan hats The FilipinOS are Ski1lful hatmakers and in certain parts of the island hat weaving is the chief household in dustry. Experiments in cuItivating Carludovica palmata are now under way in the Lamao and La Carlota ex- pertinent stations in the Philippines.

ERECTED YOUTHS RAISE
 FIRE CRY, START PANIC

Chicago, Dec. 27--Four young men who were elected from a west side theatre last night reta1iated with a false cry of Fire" and precipitated a panic that might have re-enacted the scene in which 73 persons were killed in Calumet, Mich., Christmas eve.
 The disturbers were taken out for throwing peanuts from the balcony. As they were escorted downstairs one of them shouted the false alarm. The crowd. in which there were many wo- men and children, made a rush for the exits, several reaching the street by way of fire escapes. No one was injured although it was reported that several were tramp1ed.

It has often been said that New York has larger Italian population than any other city of the world. It is probable that Naples leads the American metropolis, but by a very narrow margin, while New York has far more Italians than Rome, Turin, Florence or Venice-more than the last named two cities put together. The Italian population of New York is now over 575,OOO, and in the met ropoIitan district, including the ad- jacent cities of New Jersey, there are enough more to bring the total up to well over the three-quarter million mark.
 Practically all of this stupendous Italian immigration has taken place within the last half century. Up to the early soc there were only a few thousands of the sons of sunny Italy in this city, and most of those were men who had fled to escape political persecution. The period following the civil war witnessed the beginning of the Little Italy, at Mulberry Bend, now a Big Italy, as is the great Italian colony on the East side from Ninety-sixth to One Hundred and Six teenth street.

GOTHAM GOSSIP
 AS RELATED ON GREAT WHITE WAY
Special Writer Finds Italians Of New York Worthy
 Citizens.
By Louis LeBrun1

New Y Ork, Dec. 27.-New York Si- cilians and Calabrians Have planned special memorial services for to-mor- row, in remembrance of friends and relatives who perished in the terrible Messina earthquake of five years ago. Thousands of Italians in the American metropolis were plunged into grief by the catastrophe of Dec. 28, 1908. The Italians from the South have been bitterly criticised because of the "b1ack hand' and white slave ac- tivities of some of them, but the cen sure is far from deserved.
 The great masses of Sici1ian and CaIabrian residents of New York are useful and hardworking citizens, and more enthusiastic in their devotion to the American ideal of liberty than many native-born Americans. ItaI- fans are to be found in all lines of business in New York, as well as iE all of the eprofessions,s but probably the majority of the southern Italians are barbers, fruiterers and ice and coal dealers. These busin nesses seem to have special appeal for the imIni- grant from southern Italy, and they practically control these lines in many parts of the greater city.
 Thousands of them are lineup up clothes lines for the inhabitants of the tenement and apartment houses. Their cry of lineup shout ed at the top of their voices, assumes various forms, according to their fla rnf1iarity with English, but most often it sounds like fI know it." To the stranger the spectacle of many men going through the streets yelling "I know it. seems somewhat humorous.

During the siX-day bicycle race ear Her this month Madison Square Gar den was the scene of what was prob ably the most disgraceful exhibition ever given in the name of sport" That was not the fault of the racers themselves, m ost of whom are gentle men, but of the spectators. For some reason the six-day race in New York attracts mist of the gun men, rough necks, rowdies, pickpockets and criminals in New York, and the re- cent race meet might almost have been called a convention of thieves.
 All is now bucolic peace at the Gar den, however, and only the growing of cocks, the cackling of hens and other sounds of the barnyard disturb the silence. The great Madison Square Garden poultry show, the larg- est in America, is now on and will continue to New Years Eve.
 The 1913 show celebrates the twen- ty-fifth anniversary of the poultry show organization. Every precaution has been taken to guard the eggs laid by the hens on exhibition. With eggs selling at the price they do, it is. feared that some of New York's dar- ing criminals will be tempted to try to make a rich haul by robbing the nests at the Garden show. The cat show, which divides interest with the hen show at the Garden, will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.

A recent visitor to New York was
 Viscount Dangan, Christian Arthur

 CowIey The Viscount is a youngster,
 having celebrated his twenty-third
 birthday on Christmas, and comes to
 New Yo ork as a member of the Gaiety
 Company, in which he is in the cho- rus The young nobleman was re-
 gently tilted by his hancee, Pearl Au-
 frere, who eIoped with a commoner
 named Coats without so much as kiss
 ing the Viseount god-by- The Wis count seemed to be very Hgnt-hearted about the matter. Maybe he can find consolation on this side.
 It is estimated that New York will spend not less than a million dollars
 for food and especially drink in the hotels and restaurants next Wednesday night. The occasion of all this spending, of course, will be to give a proper, or improper, welcome to an infant named 1914" who is confidently expected to arrive at about that time Just how much coal will be spent to keep up steam to toot the whistles it would be impossible to guess.
 It would be safe to wager ehat at least three-quarters of the million
 dollar celebration fund will go for H quid refreshments, principally wine, and the wine chiefly champagne. In most of the swagger places nothing but wine' will be the rule, and thous- ands of apparently sane people will pay vast sums just for a chance to sit at a table and buy the ''joy juice." New York's annual New Years sa- turnaIia is sufficient proof, if any were needed, that the biological esti- mate of the birth of sucker every minute is based on fact, and that the fooI-killer is a myth. The move ment for 9 safe and sane New Years n hut duly optimistic gentlemen, has made no impression

B. +. Keith's.

One of the most remarkable sketches
presented in this city in long while Is
bill Sykes" the feature OF Keith's bill
this week, with Owen McGiveney as the
star. Mr.. McGiveney impersonates every
one Of the five characters in the playlet
and not only plays them artistically. but
is SO adept in quick changes OF make
up that he even makes the action seem
plausible and convincing. The scenery
and accessories are all adequate and the
hearty applause given at the fall Of the
curtain showed plainly the strong i'm
preston made on the audience. MT. Nc
Giveney has been a star In Great Brit
ain for several years. William II. Ma
cart presents a sketch entitled 1.-The
Second Generation" making the audi
ence laugh almost constantly. The play
let tells of an old brickmaker transport
ed from downtown to uptown" In New
York. and his trials with his ambitious
family. Mr.. Macart played the role OF
an old Irishman true to life and was
well supported by his company.
The other Celt on the bill is Frank
Fogarty, the Dublin minstrel, who has
been seen here before, and Is just az
funny as ever. He has several new songs
and stories that are irresistible. AS q
story teller he Is in q class by himself.
Little Ethel Green sang and danced In

played by Forrest Orr. whose work in
keeping the part from being wholly
unlovable Is notable. Louise Kent
