met them and led the way into a dense
forest

stump of tree. Tolstoy sat down on
the stump, took fountain pen from

in a man of eighty-two he swung him
self into the saddle and vanished
quickly in the dark greenery of the
underground"

oBv1A1rNG A CONFEDERATION.

(Boston Standard Insurance Organ.)
 At the recent meeting of the Ma tional FiSe Protection Association, it was stated by one of the members g. resident of Bridgeport, Conn, that in consequence of. the enormous or ders for arms and ammunition placed by European countries with n1anufac- turers of that city, the capacity of the factory plants would have to be very largely increased and dwelling accomm cd ations provided for the thousands of skilled workmen-7,5 300, to 10,00O-and their families expected to nave into the city during the next two years. It is confidently expected that the impetus thus given to Bridge port industries will mark the begin ming of a period of prosperity that perhaps, ultimately, the most impor- tant in the state. Wheth CT this ex- pectation is destined to be realized will depend to some extent, perhaps entirely, upon the nature of it's new dwelling house construction. The new citizens and the tra.despeople who will settle with them will be suffi- cientIy numerous to populate a. city very nearly the size of Chelsea, that is to say a city of that size is expect ed to be built in Bridgeport during the next three years. Is this mass of construction to be a. permanent contribution to Bridgeport's prosper ity or menace to it's very existence :? That is now the all-inp portant ques- ton for the city authorities to de- eide. If they permit the erection of scores of blocks of frame three-deck- CT tenement buildings. they will take the chance of seeing all their dreams of prosperity go up in smoke at any Iaom lent. But there is no need of ex- posing the city to any such danger. In Massachusetts the erection of the dangerous frame three-decker is be- ing everywhere prohibited by law and it's place taken by the two-tenement frame or brick building, which has been demonstrated to be a more prof itable investment as well as a very much less dangerous conf7agration breeder.
