CENTENARY OF
 BIGELOW, INVENTOR OF SIJSPENDERS.

To-day is the centenary of the birth of great benafactor of masculine humanity, Erastus Brigham Bige1ow. who invented the modern elastic webbing suspendsrs and the loom Tor weaving the webbing. More than half a hundred useful inventions stand to the credit of this 1dassachu- sefts genius, but his elastic braces for trousers was his supreme achievement Braces were in use, of course, before Bige1ow turned his at
 tention to the problem of keeping up- per and neither garments in close jux- faposztion, but those early types Of. the "gaIIus'' were constructed on uI- yielding cloth, and III suited to with stand the strain imposed by the move ments of the body. Buttons came oR with alarming frequency. and1ea- tastrophe was always impending. Gen tIemen always carried nails in their. a substitute for buttons, and even such provision did not always prevent calamity and the unwelcome atten- tfDn of press. public and. police. Then came Bigelow with his suspenders of eEastic webbing. and male humanity rose up and called him blessed.
 BigeIow was born on April 2, 1914, at West BoyIeston, Mass. He was what we now call child slave in the cotton mills As lad he invented a hand loom for piping cord. and he had mot yet attained his majority when he perfected his loom for weav- <u- 17sr.e-,fz ar uaF,I,51z E1;s s,,x,<-,
 tions at this period, valuable as they were did not yield much in the way of profit. and he decided on a mercan- tile career. He entered the employ rnent of the Boston dry goods firm of S F. Morse 6 Co, and at the same time studied stenography, and pub 1ished a book entitled 'sThe Self Taught Stenographer.'' The inventive instinct was too strong to be resisted, however, and he again turned his at tentson to the development of new ventons were power looms for the weaving of knotted counterpanes and the manufacture of coach lace At the age of twenty-five he perfected the tw@-ply ingrair carpet loom, and, with his brother, organized the z Clinton Company at Leicester, Mass. which town soon became known as Clinton S1i1e, and afterward as Clinton. His manufacturing industry made him wealthy, but he continued to invent new processes and machines. and in an patented more than fifty inven- fions. He died in Boston in 1879- .

PERSONAL TAXES OF
 $z,5I4 COLLECTED
 DURING LAST MONTH

The personal tax collectors of Bridgeport have collected $4.514 dur ing the month of March according to the report which they have prepared. Of this amount $134 is for taxes on the list of 1910; $74s on the list of 1911; S1,392 on the list of 1912; and $2,24O on the list of 1913.
 During February the collectors re- ceived $5,770. The activity of the col 5leetors and their requests for warrants for delinquents apparently have made many who owe taxes pay up.
 Up to date the collectors have se- cured $s,e10 1on the 1918 list or about one quarter of the estimated am ount to be due from the personal tax as- sessrn erat.

The Human Procession

greatest of living English novelists. on the suspicion that she might be suffering from s.seniIe debility Mrs Steel will celebrate her sixty seventh birthday to-day, and she is petite and white-haired, but as active. mentally and physically, as most women twen- ty years younger. Mrs. Steel visited New York enroute. to Jamaica, and had intended to spend some time in America, but the manner in which she was treated by the immigration. officials caused her to change her plans sI was never so insulted in my Hfe,'' the little woman said, indig- nantly, but she was able to find hunor in the situation. When the immigfa- ton inspector inquired of Mrs. Steel how she made a. living, she replied that she wrote, but that seemed a du- bious method of earning a. liveIihood, in the opinion of Uncle sam inquisl- tor, and Mrs. Steel further satisfied his curiosity by adding that sheswou1d would write describing her experien- ces at the principal gateway to the New World. After she had been de- tained over an hour. Mrs. Steel offer ed to race the plump doctor and the immigration inspector three times around the boat deck of the Mature tania, just to prove that her alleged .'senile debility had not affected her physical health, but the gentlemen de- .cIined.
 3 Mrs Steel began her career as an author thirty years ago, when her husband was stationed in India, and since then a score of volumes have. come from her pen. Her best known works, perhaps, are .tOn the Face of the Waters and s.The Potter's Thumb which are portrayais of An glo-Indfan life which are doubtless destined to beeofne classics. The novelist is suffragist, but she does not believe in militancy. although she cannot find it in her heart to greatly blame those women who have adopted militant measures
 Mrs. Steel believes that English wo- men will win the ballot within three years. and the first result of their v1c-s tory. she believes, will be the abolition of party government.
