The Wurra Wurra Club

As it all depended upon the point of view, it was agreed to accept that view of it and let the meeting open as usual, by calling the members to order. This was done by the president, MT. A. H.. Herriman, who ordered the roll called by the secretary, which identified the absentees by recording those present The minutes of the previous meeting were read by Joe Parsons, from the Choral Union records, after which the Opening Ode was sung by Henry Scutt in shampoo soprano, accompanied by Watson Harlenbergh on his dignity. Chairman Herriman then called for such proper business as might regularly come before the meeting.
 Cat DeHart was the first one to rise. Said he: MT. President, I noticed, in the paper last week, that a correspon. dent in Salisbury desired to have the words of our Opening Ode printed in it's columns. and the editor was unable to comply with the request because, as he is not a member of this Club and has never heard the Opening Ode sung, he doesn't know the words. Nowas a member of this organization since it's start, 1 can see no objection to the pub- lication of the Ode, in the paper. 1t would interest many people who do not belong to the order, and might in- fiuence some to join, who would make desirable members. Therefore I move you, Mir. President, that the secretary be instructed to furnish copy of the words of the Opening Ode to the paper, for publication.
 The fat member lifted himself up out of his chair and said: "I 'bject, Mir. Pres 'dent.'' Then he lowered him. self into his seat and was silent.
 ''The gentleman has the right to state the ground of his objection" said the chair, land unless he does so his ob- jection will c Try no weight.
 "Wa'aI," said the fat man, hoisting himself up again, if it's goin' t be printed so's t advertise tn Club an git new members, it's foolish. We don't have no trouble gittin' all tn members we want now, do we? Wa'al thent We don't want t' le5 tn bars down an let in everything, like they do in tn churches am lodges, do we We've got some undesirables on tn out side now: let's keep 'em out. It's a mighty easy thing t git in members that hain't no good t tn organization only t make trouble for it. We see that i'll other organizations. How somever, if tn members wants t have tn Ode printed fir tn sake O lettin' outsiders see tn kind O singin' we do, I don't care-but I wouldn't do it t advertise. "
 The motion to have the Ode printed in the paper, was seconded by Judge Ford, and unanimously passed.

But it is not my purpose to ! write A poem that will live when I'm gone. I merely remark. though l know that it's trite, Matilda had "ways all her own." But now that we're married, there's been a slight change, Though I love her the same as of wore. cannot enthuse, though you may think it strange, Der the ways that bewitched me be. fore. She still eats her soup in the selfsame old style, And I'm passive. But here let me say Though her cute mannerisms no longer beguile, Matilda now has her own way.

THETOWN KNOCKER.

The "town knocker" is reasonably sure to "get his" cue way or another. Given rope enough, he will hang him. self, and few or none will lament his fate. But even if he brasses it out lie is bound, in the long run, to become painfully conscious of his social status ill his community. The town knOckeI is coming more and more to be recog- nized as pest, and the better element, everywhere, is beginning to give hlm 1 the attention due the pest. As a would be obstruction to progress he is running up against the progressive spirit that animates the various busi- ness mems organizations which strive to make conditions better. and is being dealt with as an unnecessary evil that stands in the way.
 A recent example of the attention given to the town knOcker is supplie q by the publicity committee of the Dan- bury Chamber of Comme re-, which is promulgating various declarations of progressiveness in the Danbury News: The particular pronouncement referred to is entitled, "The Town Knocker, " and reeds thus:
 The only thing to do with the
 "Town Knocker' is to kick him out. Tolerate him for minute,
 and he spreads like an epidemic all
 over the community. He is the
 original Calamity Howler" and
 "Bird of Omen" He is never
 so happy as when he can persuade
 other people to think the same way
 as he does. If allowed to ''get the foor," he will knock the pins from
 under the best proposition on earth.
 He is against every form of i'm
 provement, and if he converts
 enough people to HIS way of thinking, the town will come to
 dead stop. After having KILLED
 everything, he glories in the fact
 that nothing can be done for the
 town. It is doomed. The only
 thing to do with the Town
 Knocker'' is to head him for the
 cemetery. His habit of knocking
 is so infectious that it has been
 known to spread among some of
 the BEST PEOPLE. KICK THE
 KNOCKER UUT.
 We are inclined to think our Dan- bury friends take the Knocker too seri- ously, and give him too much credit for influence. The Knocker isn't able to "kill everything" and he is unable to "infect the best people" with any thing but contempt. He is an aggra- vating nuisance and a pest, but he doesn't cut much ice. The skunk ism t dangerous animal, but is a mighty disagreeable little beast to have around.

THE AM E " D M ENT.

The voters will be asked to vote on the mileage amendment" at the town meeting next Monday. This as a mat ter which caused no little discomfort to the legislators, last session when, under the watchdog economy of Comptroller Danny Dunn, the provision of the con- stitution was strictly adhered to, which allows railroad car-fare for only one round trip during the session.
 Arguments for and against the amendment are becoming familiar. It is admitted that the compensation, $500, is insufficient for legislator who gives of his time and his ability to the service of the state, and that he should not be compelled to use up his entire pay for railroad fare. To be sure, some of the statesmen sent to Hartford as representatives perform no service for either their towns or the state, that is worth a single trip horse-car fare in the aggregate, while others render service that is worth to the public many times the allotted stipend. Colonel Osborn, in the Journal Courier, who is disposed to favor the amendment, writes: "There were but three votes against 1t in both houses of the general assembly last winter, which gives the viewpoint of those who did the service exacted, though we never thought the service was worth over a couple of cents.
 The Meriden Journal admits that "the present rate of mileage paid to the senators and representatives is made quate and that it should be greater, '' but it dislikes the plan proposed in the amendment It says: "The plan be- fore the voters of the state is now to draw a blank check and permit these men who will receive the direct benefit to fill in the sum at any figure they please. When the bill was drawn the mileage rate should have been decided and the electors told what they were voting for, but instead of that the voter is asked to approve of rate that the legislators have in their minds. Fur thermore such action as this is estab fishing a bad precedent. :"
 The Hartford Co1rant doesn't seen to think much of the amendment, but it says the state "is able and ought tc a be willing to pay her w-makers, al ! least to the extent of the carfare whicl they are obliged to pay in order to dc their work where the state insists il
