BASEBALL TEAM MAY QUIT.

The reports today are that the New Britain baseball team is about to end it's career in this city. The manager has lost money, like many of his predecessors, and unless he can make good his payments to the league he must quit. He must be given credit for going as far as he has under such conditions. His team Is at the bottom of the list and it has lost so many games, home games at that, that the patronage has fallen off and oftentimes the audience has been very small, but the manager if given help by the league, as he should be, would probably finish the season. The conditions in New Brit ain are much different from those in many other Connecticut cities. In the first place the great majority of the people here work in the factories employment to attend ball games. Those engaged in business will not at tend the games for some reason and in order to get by the management must have a winning team and must play on Saturday when the shops are closed for the afternoon.
 The attendance in the other cities in this league Is light especially in Waterbury, but they play Sundays there and this helps out as it does in New Haven and Bridgeport. Thes. places are also larger than New Rri- tain and the baseball managemen+ has more people to draw from, So that all things considered there is much evidence for the belief that this is a poor baseball city and that the only things that will make the game pay here are winning team and Saturday games. The present management probably knows this thoroughly by this time.

Car Fares By Zones.

 Cleveland has been forced to aban- don in part it's three-cent fare sys- tenn for the simple reason that it was found impossible to carry passengers at a profit al that rate. The present change abolishes the free transfer system and requires the passenger to pay an additional cent for every transfer issued him. Under the ne" rule the actual cost in street car lale to some remote districts of the city will reach seven cents. The'Zohe III which the three-cent fare appnes IS small The recent change III lhe rule in Cleveland is probably the nrst step toward the creation of a zone sys- tenn within the city. with dlHerent rates of fare in each zone.
 On commercial considerations alone the zone system is undoubtedly the proper one. The rate of pay can then be exactly proportioned to the ser vices rendered. Theoretically, to charge one man the same rate of fare for a ride of half dozen blocks that another man pays for a

"LOve Sickness No Dream.

That Hove sickness is no mere poetical fancy, but real malady, is the pronouncement of an editorial writer in the British Medical Journal London. Everyone knows that the rejected lover may suffer loss of ap- petite, waste of tissue and depression of spirits. Burton, in his Anatomy of Melancholy treats at length of the peculiar variety of melancholy symptoms by the dozen; according to Plato, Emperdocles, the philosopher, who was present at the cutting up of one that died for love, reported that "his heart was combust, his liver smoky, his lungs dried up, insomuch that he verify believed his soul was either sodden or roasted through the vehemency of loves fire"
 The English writer goes on to say: "From an Italian medical journal of recent date we learn that Dr. F. Barrett, whom we are unable to identify and to whose work no ref erence is given, holds that love is an intoxication of the nervous centers. The circulatory system may be af- fected, especially if the patient is young and is suffering from a first attack. This recalls Galens story of how he diagnosed the case of a young girl who was thought by her anxious parents to be dying. Believ- ing that nothing more than love sickness was the matter, the astute physician had the suspected object

WILL WANT TO SEE LIEGE.

When the American tourist goes abroad again he will want to see Liege when he visits Belgium. The route for those who land at Liverpool or Southampton is to go to Dover and cross the English channel, landing at Calais, where they take the train for Paris, or land at Ostend in Belgium, from whence they go down through to Switzerland and other countries in that section It is in Belgium that the famous battlefield of Waterloo Is To- osted, which is visited by thou sands of tourists every year. The touring companies which are to be found all over Europe will undoubted- ly include Liege in their itinerary in future as we'll as some of the other places with which people are becom- tie war It would not be surprising to see European travel increased as a result of the present conflict. Every one is reading the news such as 1t is, ana there Will uc d uCSl1 e IO see the places which are now likely to be historic and what place is there more historic than Liege, which has been and is being the scene of more fighting than any, other spot in Europe for some time? -'
 There never was a war which there were as many people reading about as at present, the foreign element not here long enough to read, English receiving newspapers from the old country and they can be seen in knots of three or four standing against fence in New Britain while one of them reads and the others listen This is being done during the noon hour while waiting for the whistle to summon them to work for the after noon. People who never heard of l.iege before are now talking about it, wondering how the forts look after being bombarded for several days. work cut out for him and when he re- turns with his films showing the scenes of the present struggle all will want to see them. It will not only be but educational.

who still think that Governor Bald win will be nominated for United States senator and that Mr. Mahan will be again named for congress in program. Governor Baldwin has made the statement publicly that he will not accept a renomination for the present office, but that he would ac- cept a nomination for senator, and such statement coming from a man like Governor Baldwin generally means what it says. He is not given to idle utterances and those who who know him believe that it is the for that he will accept and that only.
 It seems to be pretty we'll under stood that Congressman Mahan is for Senator Landers for governor and that it is he who will be nominated, pos sibly on the first ballot. Prof. Fisher is more active than any of the other that he is gathering any votes any more than is MT. Tingier or MT. Com stock.

brought into her presence, meanwhile keeping his hand on her wrist. The sight of the young man quickened the maidens pulse to rate that left no doubt in Galen's mind as to the cause of her indisposition. Dr. Bar rett we are told, has made re- searches on the blood of people in love, and has found marked leucocy- tosis.
 If the disease is not speedily cured, love may lead to neurasthenia, and even insa unity; it also predisposes to tuberculosis. It is high time, he con- cludes, that we should think of de- vising a purely medical treatment for love. What form is this to take? The bacillus of love has not yet been dis covered, and therefore no vaccine is available for the cure of the disease Montaigne also thought that love should be treated by medicine As translated by John F'lorio, he says: Philosophy thinketh she hath not il imployed hir meanes, having yeeld- ed the sovereign rule of our mind, and the authoritie to restraine our appetites, unto reason. Amongst which. those who judge there is none more violent than those which love begetteth. have this for their opinion, that they holde both of body and soule; and man is wholly possessed with them; so that health is selfe de- pended of them, and physick is some times constrained to serve them We are left in the dark by Dr. Barrett as to the exact line of purely medical treatment to be adopted for the cure

ride of as many miles is inequitable Probably every street car company in the land would be willing to adopt the zone system and would carry passengers anywhere within a brief radius of the business center of a city for three cents.
 But certainly the larger interests of the community are furthered by the present system, which encourages the population to spread out, which initiates against congestion and which makes it possible for a man of small means to own his own home, several miles from his place of busi- ness or employment, and yet to reach his work at no larger money ex- penditure daily than if he were a resi- dent of the congested part of the city.

To. O. F. Field Day Events Are
 Open Only to Members. Editor Herald:
 Could you tell me if the athletic events of the Odd Fellows field day are open only to members? If you will publish the answer in Fridays Herald will be much obliged.
 Yours truly,
 A STEADY READER (W. D.
 This years field day events of the Odd Fellows, which are to take place at the Berlin Fair grounds on Au- gust 22, are to be open only to mem bers. However, the mile race and the 100 yard dash, as we'll as all of the comic events, will be open to any Odd Fellow in the state.
 If the Odd Fellows had their con- tests open to the public they would have to run them under the auspices of the A. A. U. and they were not ready to take that step this year. If this years field day proves success, however, the plan is to have the one next year a state day and to run 1t under the sanction of the Amateur Athletic Union.

\ FOOLISH ARGUMENT.

\ FOOLISH ARGUMENT.
 The Courant has started the fall campaign based upon the old argu- |nent of protection vs free trade, say ing that the United States is very largely independent of the rest of the world. How foolish it is for any one 10 make such statement, especially ht time when the evidence is so Etrongly against it. We would all nable us to live and prosper without Lny regard for the doings of other 2nds This claim has been taught for Tears. the people believed it, and vhat is the result? A war has broken ut in Europe and hostilities had carcely gotten under way when people have been thrown out of work Ind all because the export trade had leased, and the imports, without gfich the average American factory (oes not seem able to do business. vere discontinued. During the last ampaign d manufacturer, who has L,a, ,f fIn [ent's cabinet, said that many classes if goods can be manufactured cheaper ere than abroad, because of our killed labor and machinery, and it eems as if it must be true, because
 it was not true there would not he ,ch loud vail over the temporary bss of the export trade.
 There can be no disputing the fact hat the factories of New England ave grown under the policy of pro-

 people who do not seem to be able manufa cture them at as low he point has been reached when we i need to be on the level with our- Elves, not as democrats or republi- Y. all anxious and willing to do the ir thing with each other.
 There is no argument for free trade alters from that standpoint. It. ould be impossible to have free ade in country such as the United -tes without forcing the people to y heavy tax to meet the expenses
 the government. Free trade means
 it's fullest sense the elimination Of r customs houses so far as raw ma rials and manufa ctured products are ncerned; to do so would mean a rge loss in revenue to the govern ent. and no political organization is ing to support any measure that for it's object the promotion of such condition. Neither the b1rant nor any other newspaper o,Id attempt to teach any such doc ne now or ever, but on the con- hry should teach the doctrine of fair ,v to all and say that the lamented nraham Lincoln gave expression to

Any one may take a vacant end seat; 1t is the use he makes of his position afterwards that counts. Perhaps the only exception is found in the case of the man who runs by the car be- fore it stops at terminal and crowds into the place he wants be- fore the passengers have had time to alight, and retains it at all hazards from that time on.-Hartford Times
