The racing car which collided with a big elm tree, at East Canaan, Sunday evening, struck the tree with such force that one spring was imbedded in the trunk to depth of ten inches, and it required the combined efforts of an auto truck and high power touring car together with the ug-of-war energy of 15 men pulling on rope, to dislodge it from the tree. The car, of course, was not running fast, but the tree rushed savagely at the car at rate of speed estimated at not less than 60 miles an hour. Is there no speed limit for slippery elm trees?

This country still has some things to learn from the old countries in the way of effective law making. For instance should the time ever come when the mayors here could issue list of maxi. mum prices to be charged for food stuffs. as is done in European cities, we would probably have better protection from exorbitant charges than we now have.-Ansonia Sentinel.
 The kaiser says he is prepared to sacrifice 100000 lives. They will be sacrificed all right only his figures are too low.-Pittsfeld Eagle.
 Turkey is reported to have paid $20, 900, 900 for two German cruisers. The United States got only $6,000, 900 for two old-style battleships, few weeks ago. This war is raising prices on all the necessities of nations life.- Bridgeport Standard.
 Can it be that the solicitude of certain men of prominence in civic affairs and of importance in ward poli- tics for the welfare of all those men who are "hopelessly walking the streets looking for jobs, ,'' is born of desire to improve their own business, hard hit as it is by the lack of steady employment of their customers? There is no evidence of an oversupply of hands willing to help harvest the crops in the nearby no-license rural sections Waterbury Republican. -
 The thoughtful scheolboard of Atlanta, Ga., isn't going to waste any money at the solicitation of book agents It has decided to defer all purchases of geography and histories until it is known whether the map of Europe is to be remade. Courant.
 Progressives raised between $4, 500 and $5,000 as sinews of war at the meeting held in Hartford, Saturday Though the fact seems to have been overlooked at the time, it may help to put the progress in Connecticut this fall.-New Haven Journal Courier.
 We'll bet Sherman would like to rise up in his grave and kick the shins of the fellow who said he said what he didn't say they say he said.-Shore Line Times.

We beg to assure Colonel Osborn,
 the returned New Haven traveller, that there is nothing perfunctory about our felicitations on his safe return. He enjoyed wonderful experience on the British Islands and up in the Arctic Circle; strenuous time lodging the war drafts and identifying himself after war was declared, and doleful journey home in the dirty steerage of rat-in- fested ship. Its going to be.worth lot to hear him tell of the delights of that experience. n--

AFLABBEReAsTED HERO.

Young Gosch, the Colebrook hero, who, in revolver duel put to flight a gang of burglars caught in the act of robbing the Phelps mansion in Cole brook, one night, couple of weeks ago, by shooting at them as they were preparing to load their booty into a Phelps auto, has forfeited all claim to . Carnegie medal by confessing that he faked the yarn of attempted burglary, packed up the silverware, himself, and slot the bullet-hole into the porch pillar behind which he had claimed to be entrenched during the revolver duel. The boy was dime novel reader, and aspired to be "ba-a-ad man, and the realistic comedy was conceived, staged and carried out by Gosch.

TH E WAR

The fortunes of war are showing their fickleness in the daily report that purport to come from the stupendous battle -felds-or rather, that come from war offices far remote from the battle fields and are censored and mangled by the official axe-wielders to suit their respective views. In the earlier stages of the big war game the cablegrams defeating the Germans and Austrians, with fearful slaughter, in the battles and skirmishes that prepared the way for the final meeting of the main bodies, in which millions of men were massed on either side, to kill and be killed. The big battle has been raging now fo1 five days, and while the reports are meagre, contradictory and unsatisfying, the general tenor of them apparently goes to show, that Germany is smash ing hen way through the allies, recapturing cities and strongholds taken by the latter few days before, and bent on capturing Paris. Meantime the allies are being constantly re-en- forced and confident of crushing the Kaiser's enormous army.
 The war is not over by any means, and it's. bloody developments, to date, have vouchsafed nothing on which to base confident prediction of what the end will bring forth.

Disarmament.

Put up the sword the voice of Christ
 once more .. r.. Speaks, in the pauses of, the cannon's
 roar, ..e Der fields of corn by fiery sickles reaped And left dry ashes: over trenches heaped With nameless dead; OCT cities starving slow Under rain of fire; through wards of woe Down which groaning diapason runs From tortured brothers, husbands,
 lovers, sons Of desolate women in their far.off | homes, .#-e .-... Waiting to hear the step that never comesl O, men and brothersl let that voice be heard. War fails, try peace; put up the useless sword ....#.. Fear not the end. There is story told In eastern tents, when autumn nights
 grow cold, And round the fire the Mongol shep-
 herds sit
 With grave responses listening unto it.; Once, on the errands of his mercy bent, Buddha, the holy and benevolent, Met fell monster, huge and fierce of
 look,
 Whose awful voice the hills and forests
 shook. 70, son of peacep' the giant cried,
 thy fate Is sealed at last, and love shall yield to
 hate.
 The unarmed Buddha looking, with no
 trace
 Of fear or anger, in the monsters face, In pity said: Poor fiend, even thee I
 love-" Lol as he spake the sky tall terror sank To hand-breadth size; the huge abhor-
 renee shrank Into the form and fashion of dove; And where the thunder of it's rage was
 heard,
 Circling above him sweetly sang the
 bird: Hate hath no harm for love-" so ran
 the song; a h And peace unweaponed conquers every
 wrong" oi

Governor Baldwin comes out plainly, in letter to Col. Osborn, and admits that he is willing to run for the United States Senate, to succeed Senator Brandegee. There is lurking suspi- cion in certain quarters that Congress man Mahan also is willing to run. Neither Governor Baldwin nor Con- gressman Mahan has ever been defeated ill political race, and if they are pitted against each other for the democratic nomination for Senator the result may supply the answer to the old conundrum as to what will happen when an irresist- ible object meets an immovable object.
