viii Immediately Cease to Recog-

- No Cargoes to Be Landed.

London, Nov A special dis

statement from the Berlin Kreuse

This is taken to mean that If any
neutral cargoes are being landed in
England, Germany Immediately will
cease to recognize the inviolabilty OF
neutral ships.

SOME NIMROD.

If Uncle Sam ever goes to war there is one youngster in Canaan who will be "bad man" at the front. This chap is John Pease. The way this lad can shoot would lead one to believe that he was born with a rife in his hand.
 John was out strolling recently looking for game in the suburban wilds beyond the city limits, accompanied by 22 rife, when a shadow attracted his at. tention heavenward to ascertain the cause. It proved to be large hawk carrying something in its claws. and, although at least mile in the air and taking to the tall timber at the rate of II miles minute by accurate calcula- tion, the man behind the gun, quicker than thought, sent little leaden mes-
 sage up to his aeriai--.visitor which evidently the bird interpreted as "hands upr' Instantly the thief dropped his package. and the air was so full of feathers that they elouded the sky. When the atmosphere cleared up enough to see what had happened John picked up the game, which proved to be song sparrow, but the hawk con- tinued to continue, minus several bushels of his winter clothes. The sparrow was alive when picked up, but died in few minutes, while the hawk is doubtless wondering what undressed him so suddenly.

CUMMINGS SPEAKS HERE
Democratic Candidate for United
 States Senator Addresses Citizens.

Homer s. Cummings of Stamford, democratic nominee for United States senator, who was making a tour of Litchfeld county, stopped in Canaan last Friday afternoon.
 He was greeted by local democratic politicians with whom he exchanged greetings and good wishes for the sue. cess of their candidacy.
 At the call of a bugle, Hon. E. s. Roberts introduced MT. Cummings to those who had gathered to hear him in froGt of the Benton block.
 MT. Cummings gracefully acknowl- edged the kindly welcome stating that it was a significant fact that he had noticed elsewhere as we'll as in Canaan that a goodly number of ladies were in every audience he had addressed; a token that they were taking more and more an interest in the political situa. tion.
 He briefly discussed the political situation and the attitude of the two parties in the great questions of the day. His talk was generally liked and many were impressed with the fairness with which he treated his opponents. They would have liked to have heard him longer. The audience was very responsive and heartily cheered MT. Cummings as he concluded.

REAL SOLDIERS.

This is the way the Hartford Post feels about the returning troopers and it finds an echo in many other minds.
 The boys who went out to Mantle andNogales in June, veterans of national guard service, though many of them in the eyes of regulars were but raw recruits. But no one who saw the bronzed and work hardened men as they strode through the streets, executing commands with alertness, snap and precision would consider them such.
 All that the troops which paraded before their fellow citizens need to make them finished soldiers is what we trust they never will get, thelr baptism of fire. In everything else they are as ready for the fray as men can be. They know how to handle themselves in the field, how to obey orders, how the military machine is run, how to live in the open and how to rough it.
 Proud as we were of the boys when they answered the call to duty, proud as we were when the trains brought them home from faraway Arizona, were we still more proud to see the splendid efficiency they have learned. The citizen soldierly is not joke.
