Which Spot,

Buffalo Jones was telling an after dinner story.
 Pete had charge of the animal tent" he said. "and among his pets was a leopard, the only one with the show He was bad leopard, too. and gave Pete far more trouble than all the rest of the menagerie together. One day, when the show was in New Jersey, went out to Chicago to arrange some business. While I was having dinner, a telegram was handed me. It read :: The leopard has escaped. Prowling about the town, what shall do? Pete. :
 Pete was one of those fellows who had to have explicit directions to do anything, even in the emergency. He was always afraid of making a mistake. rushed from the table and sent a reply.
 "'Shoot him on the spot,' I wired. Being unusually busy, forgot all about the affair until about two hours later, when returned to the hotel, and auoth- CT telegram was handed me. It proved to be from careful, conscientious Pete, and asked: (Which spot?' '"-Hearst's Magazine.

Silk O'Loughlin, Orator.

Silk O'Loughlin, the now famous umpire. made dash for congress two years ago. He had an idea that as a representative from the Rochester dis trict of New York state he could call balls and strikes on all matters of a legislative character taking place in the United States Capital.
 Silk, it.is said. believed that he could put few of the most momentous trou- ble-breeding propositions out of the congressional game. With this lauda- ble purpose he went out after the job in his usual forceful way, and although, through. the density of the voters or a mix up In signals he was handed the lemon instead of the congressional job. he made some original speeches. and was only once in bad straits. This occurred at a little town about 25 miles south of Rochester, where Silk, on mounting the rostrum, made hls usual opening announcement, which went as follows:
 "Now, gentleman, I am ready to meet any emergency that may arise"
 When Silk had got thus far in his speech, the film silly constructed platform on which he was standing gave way and buried the orator in the ruins. Just at that moment one of those mean and tantalizing individuals, always to be found in the rear of a crowd, blurted out : "How about that one?"
 That one," at once retorted Silk from beneath several tons of lumber, "did not arise"

What the Other Fellows Say.

Edison has sense at last. He has cut down the number of hours he works each day. He has decided to make 1t IS in- stead of I9.-Pittsfeld Eagle.
 It would be interesting if President Lowell of Harvard should be made one of the proposed Boston x Maine trustees, while President Hadley of Yale is serv- ing as one of the directors of the New Haven" road.-Hartford Courant.
 Septuagesima Sunday, as today is call ed in church calendars, is a title which Christianity has clung to for nineteen centuries with such simple and satisfied faith that those who go looking for the explanation of the name nowadays find that there are more theories than reasons for it.-Waterbury Republican.
 Tn order to insure its validity the Workmen's Compensation Law has been re-introduced into the legislature and probably will be passed. But suppose 1t should be defeated. Then where would we be ati-Millerton Telegram.
 More care should be taken by parents that the agonizing injury or death of children by burning may be prevented. There have been several of these acci. dents here of late and all of them could have been prevented by the exercise of reasonable precaution. - Ansonia Sem tinel.
 Sometimes the knocker is a good thing: provided always that he wields his little hammer wisely and directs it at fault that justihes his rap. Too often, how ever, he is a combination of bad diges- ton and pessimism. Generally he, him self, is the one who suffers the most from his caustic erance.-Telephone Bul. Ietin.
 President Wilson makes mistake in declining to visit New Haven and look over OUT chamber of commerce. He would have had the time of his life.- New Haven Journal-Courier.
 It takes great calamity, sometimes, to bring realization to the fact that hero ism and courage are not dead. The fires of the past three weeks have brought th the attention of the public the fact that in the Pittsfeld fire department there is about as much sheer heroism as there are pounds of humanity. -Pittsield Sun day Call.

Talent For Blunde ring.

The other day. says Walt Mason, a husky yonng man with good face appeared at the back door of an Elm poria residence and said he was suffer ing for something to eat and for pair of shoes. He was invited into tn kitchen, where he was permitted to fill his person with grub, and then the housewife dug up pair of shoes for him. Now" said the young man, betraying an admi- rable spirit. "I'd be glad to do any work can for you" So he was told of half dozen chores about the place, and he went at then right manfully. and when they were done he called at the back door and asked if there was any thing else he could do. At first glance it seems strange that a young man of the sort should be out of work. but there is no great my stery to 1t. He had very fine talent for doing everything wrong. Everything he put his hand to had to be done over again. He botched the simplest chores. For instance, he car ried some window screens into the base ment and piled them right over the kindl- Ing, so wheD the kinding was needed the screens had to be removed. He never learned to use his head and so the new year finds him calling a back doors for handouts. It isn t enough to be willing and industrious if you wonld succeed. You must show that you have more in- telligence than 8 graven image.

GEORGE .. CUNNING.

In the death of George s. Dunnlng the town loses one of it's most estim able and highly respected citizens-a loyable, companionable Christian gentleman, whose whole life was lived among us, and whose untimely desaise brings. to us sl sense of personal loss. ''His life was gentle," and his disposition and temperament of that quality that makes for lasting friendship and oompels last ing respect.
 In private, social, community and business life he was ever the same, kindly, considerate, cheerful and help fuI ready always to respond to any call for the moral or substantial support of soy worthy or beneficent object.
 Broad in his sympathies aud tolerant i'm his consideration of other mems views on questions whereon men are prone to diff0G hehad faculty for impressively eon4aSing his own opinions i'll way to comHand for them the respect of those with whose views he might not be in ac- NNAoB JOO "tohOAo ShNAhS VI AOe1f ing a trace of ill will. His life was in no degree embittered by personal, poli- tacal or other animosities, and there is none who eyer knew him but mourns his death.
 An Impressive fact is brought fsce" to face with the community in which the Dunuing family, for genera laons. have been such an important fac tor :~ With the passing of George s. Dunning the family name, of his branch, becomes extinct, George having been tbe last male descendant of long and ssardy line of Cummings who fourished in East Canaan since the early part of shs hst century and contributed mater. izaly to the development and the com naercial and business importance and history of the town.

Letters From the People
The Public Snow Flow.

To the Editor of The News:
 The writer would respectfully suggest to the driver of the town SHOW blow that as the town hall is town property and the town is responsible for the cleaning of those walks. he should clean those before he goes all over town digging out folks that have only a secondary claim to that assistance. The folks on the hIll pretty generally got their walks cleared in good season but they were shut off until nearly four o'clock in the after noon because of the long and large drifts on the town hall and school house prop erty. This condition made the service and the Sunday school session impossi. ble at Pilgrim church. It seems reason. able to expect that on Sunday morning one of the first efforts would be to con nect the churches with the downtown section as early as possible. especially when there is a long stretch of walk abutting on pu 5lic property. Take care of that first and then of that abutting O" private property, and this citizen will refrain from Butting In.

Are you a hero?" was the topic of Rev. J. w. Hoag's discourse, in Calvary Baptist Church. New Haven, last Suu- day. If the blizzard attended to it's bliz- ziness down there as assiduously as it did hereabouts, and made navigation churchward as difficult and disagreeable, the very fact that there was a congrega- tion present would license every auditor to answer the question in the afirma- tive.

 Walter doesn't write himself down as one of the three, yet he proceeds to c1m' meut on Shaw. and gets away with the job in a manner which, to the untrained laymrn, seems to qualify the other f'l low for the exhllarating work of collect ing pennies for the organ-grinder.
