SIX CARS OF ORE
 BRING COODRETUR

Hill and Mattson, who have lease on the Antler and Copper World pro- perties for period of several years, report the shipment of their sixth car of ore since November. These cars range from 30 to 40 tons and the values from over 12 per cent to 19 per cent copper. A small amount of silver also is carried by the ores. One car load gave a return of close to $2000, but the other carloads range above $12OO.
 A winze is now being sunk from the first level to open the big ore body that shows in the floor of the mine While driving this winze the men are taking out ore and soon expect 70 have another carload on the way to the shelter.
 This mine was abandoned by the old Commercial Copper Company in the late eighties on account of the low price of copper, which then was about nine cents. It was claimed that the copper had disappeared from the ores at the water level, being re- placed by zinc. Since that time it has. been proven that better copper ore than that shipped by the company is available in the mine and it is prob able that if equipment is installed and the shaft sunk to new level a great body of copper will be opened. Many beautiful specimens of mala- chite and the "velvet" coppers were taken from the mine near the water level in the early days, similar in many respects to those from the mines of Bisbee.

tioning perhaps the newest novelty ever known.
 At the premier of his musical show last night charming girls of the chorus passed through the audience singing We've got something and passed out little souvenirs marked "Carstairs whiskey.''
 And what is more those who drank it from the tiny bottles-and it is said there were many in the theater who knew the taste of the thing-pro- nounced 1t honest-to-goodness whis- key.
 Well, the Prohibition officer is go- ing to investigate and find if Hammer stein did this thing. What cares Ar thur? The prohibition man says he will make it decidedly unpleasant" for Arthur. What cares he? The musi- cal comedy. n what happened at its opening. will never be forgotten. If there comes prosecution. there will be much sympathy for the producer from those who went. saw and drank. Their sympathy will bring sympathy from others.
 And while Arthur is getting the ad- vertising. some will be smacking their lips in remem brance of an entirely unexpected blessing. as many un- doubtedly considered it.

MOVING ALONG.

The Common Council requested that the sanitary inspectors take up the matters pertaining to tenement house sanitation. Repairs have been ordered according to the findings of the special rent committee. The orders were to make the houses fit for occupancy.
 Now it becomes the duty of the inspectors primarily to see that the orders are carried out. There should be no hesitancy. in instituting court proceedings if there is any failure. Poor excuses should not be accepted by the court.
 While Governor Holcomb refuses to consider the housing situation a special emergency" calling for a special session of the legislature, the city oicals should at least make those places of habitation still stand ing. fit therefor.
 Here is a chance for the admins tration to win a big white credit mark to offset some black marks that might have already appeared upon it's records. The people will remember the administrations actions in this health matter and in the whole matter of the health of New Britain people, and 1t would be we'll for the admin istration to make the most of this opportunity.

were reported to be out of employ mcnt one day recently in New Eng land whe.e some textile mills have closed. The closing of many automo- bile concerns threw more out of work. The time has not come yet. however, when a man who wants to work has any difficulty in finding a job.
 All this tends to a lowering of wages. and with lower wages. say economists. will come lower prices.
 Labor is fighting to hold its ground. Secretary Morrison. of The Fedora ton of Labor. asserts employers arc raising n s5.Oo0.0 900 fund to fight for tho open shop in the hope of re- ducing wages.
 There can be no question but that labor is more plentiful. which must mean the approach of lower wages and lower prices. Lower wages would be inconceivable in most cases were it not for the accompanying lower prices. Tn many cases a man would be physically unable 10 work at all efficiently were his pay to be re- duced It is pretty hard as things arc today.
 It is believed that neither the workman non the employer will suf- fer when the final adjustment is reached. And the public generally certainly will be benefited.

DRUNKEN COINCIDENCE

It it an unpleasant coincidence that at just about the same time there ap- pcared in two of the newspapers pub Iishod nearby the news that six per- sons appeared in police court charged with intoxication.
 And in New York a wclI-known man has admitted that he got started on his wild time" which ended in tho serious injury to another by home brew.
 The opinions on the liquor ques- ton and it's enforcement are varied. But 1t seems as though all would agree that no advance Is being made in solving the question to the satis- faction Of a majority as long as the sale, somewhere, of liquor keeps up. The town and city authorities blame the Federal authorities for not en- forcing the law. and the Federal au- thorities say that the town and city authorities are as much to blame as arc they-the former being given power to enforce tho law.
 It is dificut to enforce a law in which the community does not be- lieve. New England has laws on her statute books that are never enforced, and it would seem folly to do so. They have passed into oblivion encased in time.
 The Volstead enforcement law, however. Is a different matter. It was enacted to meet present conditions. and fair trial should he given to the eighteenth amendment, through it's enforcement, that its workings, advants geous or otherwise, may be discovered.
 When the newspapers tell the police court happenings similar to ante-pro- hibition days. it shows that this policy Is not being followed.

FRANCE PROGRESSING.

Franklin Roosevelt said the other day that we will find we cannot be in the world and not of it. Regard less of the application he made to the saying. it's truth is growing more evident every day.
 The prosperity of one country af- fects' others more today than ever before. It affects others materially as we'll as spiritually. The prosper ity of more countries of course means greater prosperity in the world, and its results are seen everywhere.
 Therefore the remarks of bank ing expert who has just returned from Paris, are pertinent here. He says that the prospects of the coming crops in France are excellent and that the French people are cooper ating as vigorously in the solution of their financial problems as they did in tho time of war. "One comes back from France at this time with renewed admiration for the sturdi- ness. thrift and patriotism of this remarkable people"
 When the banker mentions "sturdi- ness one cannot but recall, if one heard a certain French officer speak in the time of the war. his personifi- cation of that quality. The officer had been through practically all of 1t; told how the soldiers were suf- fering: how they were paid five cents day. receiving it without complaint that the sum was not larger. and how the one thought that pervaded man, woman and child was France, beloved France"
 It is not to be wondered that an investigator found the same spirit in the industrial life there now as was displayed in every little word spoken by the French officer. Another ex- ample for all men to follow. and ap- plicable to New Britain as to all the world.

The Bands.
Mir. Editor,

MT. Editor:
 One of the best displays of the
 march to the strain of the fife anG the drum was given us last Satur- day by a large number of bands.
 Execution and technique was per feet and so it well might be. The order and department was grand But all along the line of march the boys seemed to get no applause, probably terribly ancient.
 The Scotch band is very spectacu- lar, but there is no art. When Colonne was playing selections from Henry Sth by St. Saens in Paris one Sun- day about 30 years ago his gallery asked him, with pity in their tones:
 'Please Colonne. oh please let us have some musi I was there and I know, and they knew better than did. That opera-I suppose long since scrapped-was all choked up with rubbish like the Miller of the Dee, etc, etc.
 How many years more do we want to hear, The Girl Left Behind Me" |? Very business like air I know but as the bishop said, We want variety. At the instigation of the queen. he had been featuring Louis XIV. upon his dissolute intimacies at the court. She was jealous and she was not sat isfied. Louis invited the bishop to a dinner and he accepted with a vim.
 Course after course was served with chicken at this meal till the bishops appetite took a slump and Louis asked him if his dinner was no good. Excellent" he replied, but my dear king, there's too much chicken" Just my case.:' said the king, too much queen, my boy, too much queen"
 Of course we recognize that a drum and fife band is not a complete orchestra or a flute band either, but there are selections for the flute in many of the grand operas which should replace the mediocritieS we get now year in and year out, and over and over again.
 There is the solo for the flutes in Lucia de Lammermoor. The inter- Jude to the second act in Carmen" for the flutes. Part of the overture in Robert the Devil'' and a splendid little march in Carmen where Don Jose changes the guard. A speciality for flies is such a thing as Les Petits Oiseaux. (The Little Birds). played by the Republican Guard in the gardens of the Tuileries, a band which passed amost unnoticed New Britain during the war. This piece is played on the flies and calls for an absolute imitation of the song of the European skylark which rises singing from the fields, to a great height till he falls exhausted, like a stone to the ground,
 We ought to look to Europe for quality in our band music, never to Britain. Their speciality lays in other lines. They are a splendid race of people, but art don't know their na- ture, and there never yet was born the Anglo-Sax compositor who ever wrote an opera worth the paper it was written on.
 Well MT. Editor, I don't want to keep on writing till the last train leaves for Buffalo so with best thanks for your courtesy,
 Yours truly,

Rents and Garbage Collections. Editor New Britain Herald:


 Kindly allow me space in The Her aid, for a few remarks upon the rent situation as it's exists in this city:
 CD Why the necessity of the building inspectors office? Is it for the purpose of making an easy posi- ton for some individual? It appears to my mind, that if said office func- toned in its proper channels, there would be less rent profiteering. To my personal knowledge there are ten ements that are nothing but fire traps. Not a dollar having been laid out on them in repairs, since being built. Unlined chimneys, cracked to the extent. that daylight shows through; and of windy day, fire and the gas fumes are driven back into the living rooms. and in a rainstorm, there will be from two to three inches of water in the cellar. For months there have been tin pans used to catch the leakage fro-l the plumbing in the bathroom. Yet these houses are sold. sight unseen: and then the tenants rent is jumped S5 more per month. These are facts. What are the citi- zens paying these inspectors? Is it a political game?
 (2) One other observation. The Health department.
 To my personal knowledge, the garbage container in the rear of my rent. was not removed for three weeks. This was full of vermin. and in this humid weather, became very annoying. Not being willing to put up with this longer, the writer had an ex-official remove it. (There would he objections having his remarks ap- pear in print).
 In view of the above said facts, the writer assumes that there must be a lack of cooperation among the city officials. at least; the evidence at hand, leads one to assume such. It appears to my mind, if factional poll itics is the cause for this laxity in cooperation. and the public at large have to suffer through said lack of cooperation; it appears to my mind that the time is opportune to remedy this evil.
 The writer rests this case; nisi. tempus fugiD.
 Very respectfully yours.
 H. F. GARDINER, SIR.
