These pawns in the old game of war would have thrust each other back here, re- l ceded before each other there, fighting only when it was forced on them, and l so, gradually, properly, they would have cleared the board that the great game might be played.
 This incoherent uprising was dfsor- ganfzing all his tactics. From the western army that had set out to sweep through Connecticut came word that everywhere patrols had been at lacked. Men in a swift power boat on the Thames river above New Lon don had succeeded in three places in firing on scouting parties with a Hotch- kiss rife, apparently taken from a yacht.
 The line north of Norwich along the same river reported four men killed from ambush At willimantic there had been firing from mill buildings, which had been destroyed for punish ment
 The commander of the brigade that was advancing on Worcester, in Mas sachusetts, from Connecticut had halt ed his advance and was asking head quarters if the extent of the disorder were great enough to imperil his com nunications.
 The eastern division, moving on Bos- ton, reported that the patrols had been ordered in from the line North Middle boro, East AfiddIeboro and Plymouth. '*Our men can move only in consid erable force reported the commander. EsSmaH parties are constantly in dan ger of being assassinated. The popu- lation appears to be in frenzy.

ToDAY's POEM
THE BATTLEsHIP REMARKS.

 T am the Indispensable, The sea depends on me. Without my aid there can't be trade,
 Nor can a state be free, Whoe'er would plough the heaving My help must have. my power must
 No. matter what the bill. My ribs are stark; in might course
 Steel bands my entrails gird: With power of twenty thousand s horse
 My whtrling screws are stirred. with weight of twenty thousand tons On oceans tide press. From ten miles off my artfuI guns
 The foeman can distress Nor bale nor box my bowels hide, Except my needful stores With nice machines my whole inside @ Is packed, and men by scores. No gainfuI errand wins we tolls
 My cruises yield no pelf And though my bunkers choke with
 burn it all myself. I'm built to stand lawful shock;
 I don't mind being hit; But when my bottom touches dock
 It jars me quite a bit. I hate-my bottoms none too, thick
 Things not discerned till felt; Torpedoes do dirty trick
 They hit below the belt. This is my day. It may not be
 A long one,, but it's mine It may go on for aught I see
 Till Mars takes down his sign. Men groan, and say come too high; ;
 Hal hal Whats that to me The Indispensable am I.
 And boss of all the sea.

SUFFRAGIST TEA
 FOR LEGISLATORS

Hartford, Feb. 1 LA five hour ses- sion. was conducted yesterday after noon at the Hotel Heub1ein by the Connecticut Woman Suffrage Asso- citation for the members of the Gen. eraI Assembly. The legislators were caught both coming and going. In one room they were treated to tea and coffee and in the neighhoring room to speeches by members of the association The speeches and the refreshments lasted from 1 until 6 o'clock and the members of the Gen eral Assembly who accepted the in- vitation of the association to be pres ent, gravitated back and forth be- tween the two rooms, one moment drinking in the oratory of the suffra- gists and the next the tea or the coffee. In the course of the five hours, dur ing which the entertainment lasted. about 100 members of the general As sembly made their appearance.
 Standing before a large suffrage banner the speakers kept up the How of talk for five hours. changing speak CTS about every half hour. At the end of the half hour, the men would ask questions,
 The speakers were Mrs. Thomas N. Hepburn, Mrs. M. Tosca Bennett. Mrs. Edward Porritt, Miss Emily Pierson of Cromwell, Miss Alyse Gregory of NorwaIk and Miss s. Isabella Sanders of Illinois. Miss Sanders described how we'll woman suffrage had worked in her state. and spoke of it's success in other states. In regard to the Connecticut General Assembly, she said, ''I have talked with great many men in the House of Represen- tatives this winter and they have seemed to me very open-Tninded on the subject. Nearly all Of them, whether they are suffragists or not, realize that the time has come to sub- init the question to the voters and are going to vote in favor of our anendment.'

IF A SUITOR IS A
 TRAVELLING MAN

Eff I could have my dearest wish full
 filled
 And take my choice of all earth's
 treasures. too.
 And ask from heaven what soe'er
 wflled.
 I'd ask for yoc."
 The young man whom a! firm chooses to send out on the road as its travel ing representative must needs have a pleasing personality, be agreeable showing an interest in people he meets; in fact, must be a jolly, hail fellow well met. Soon this becomes second nature to him The women whose acquaintance he makes are not apt to attach any importance to his seeming friendliness. He's happy go-lucky travelling salesman!
 Those he meets today he forgets to- morrow. He's intent upon passing away the time pleasantly. His inten- lions go no further. This belief wrongs many an earnest young man who must answer the call of earning a livelihood, no matter upon what path it may send him. Like the bee, she shall rove far and wide, taking but passing interest in each flower until he comes across the right one. Then. like any other man, he falls desperately in love His sorrow arises from the fact that he Is
 
 the truth that he loves her and her. only.
 For the first time in his life he en- Vies the young men who have the great privilege of staying in one town, those who are on the ground to inf1u- ence girl by being brought in con stant contact with her, while he must depend upon letters as the means of carrying on his courtship. If, per chance, a week elapses and the girl does not hear from him, she fears that he has found a newer love and is fckle of fancy.
 He knows the average girl could not understand his explanation that he has tossed and tufnbled in a, sleeping car all night, getting into new town ! in the early dawn. His breakfast is 1 cold and not appetizing The weather may be stormy. but he has to grab his gripsack and make for the stores of his pafrons. The merchants are ser dom if eyer In a gracious mood or greet him afrabIy. He must give a l fight his way through obstinate objec- tions to show his wares.
 The day passes before he is aware He cannot afford to miss even one merchant. His evenings are taken up, l if they are gracious enough to look at his samples. Often he is forced to buy tickets for theatres, fairs, suppers and what not. and to invite the saieswo- man to accompany him. as she has in duence over the buyers. By the time he gets 10 the hotel, after seeing her home, its midnight He must catch the train at four in the morning, which leaves him but few hours rest. More than half asleep he endeavors to write Ia. letter to his dearie.
 He begins by calling her Miss Jones, 2 the girl he had to take to the theatre; ends by naming her Miss s+I.E ., whom he has promised to take a nsa- sage at his next Stop. He cannot un- derstand why the answer of his love 4epistle fails to reach him in the town lahead. A sweetheart should make all IIowances for the life he iaeds. Always she should give him the beneft of a Edoubt if he says he had not time to write her.

address, said that at the present time the position of women is a very diff dcult one. but that the majority of the men at the Capitol had treated the suffragists well. She answered several arguments which are put for ward in opposition to woman suffrage, saying that women would not spend all their time voting as some people seemed to think and that the Illa~ jority Of women would not have the time to become politicians. She calI- ed to mind the arguments which in the past had been advanced against the education of woman and the ownr ership of property by women and placed the arguments against wo-
 man suffrage on a par with these. She said that wherever women had obtained the vote they had used it and had valued it.
 Mrs Benpett said that the initial mistake made by the opponents of woman suffrage was in teaching wo- men their A. B. Cis, saying that ed- ucation had given women a desire for the vote. Miss Pierson said that the people, by the people and for the people" meant that the women should have the vote and that to talk of such government under present conditions when women suffrage does not exist, is absurd. 'Either we believe in this principle or we QO not. she said. 70 honor Lincoln for that which we deny in our hearts is nothing short of hy- pocrisy.''
 MissSAlyse Gregory told how it had happened that the makers of tho con stitution had forgotten about the wo- men, describing the condition of wo- men at that period. After speak ing of the great changes since then. she said, t'The granting of woman suffrage would not bring about any very violent change: the change has already taken place.
