POOR TOBACCO CROP.

The wet carly season and the low temperature hereabouts Is said to have played havoc with the tobacco crop in neighborins communities. Much of it was washed out. it's growth stuated. and much left free of cultivation because of poor pros poets.
 One hesitates to give publicity to bad news This certainly is bad news for the tobacco grower. and for the incessant smoker.
 But is it bad news for the women of the community? No brief is in tended to be held for the anti-tobacco people, for one conceives ot the happy home with the father smoking aad reading, aloud. perhaps, with his tamily gathered about him, and the wife doing whatever pleases her fancy mark the words - "pleases her fancy"-not alarming socks. The wife should no more be compelled to darn socks in the evening than should the father be compelled 70 keep up his own work. It has come to be ex- pccted. in a way. that the wife but not the husband must do this-and alarming socks IS certainly work.
 But the poor tobacco crop may limit the amount of tobacco smoked. though the parlor curtains may suf- fer: the housewife may be glad of this limitation dnd the family ex- cheuuer may be benefited.
 However, 1t is too had that the to- bncco crop will be so poor It is a blow to Connecticut and much to be regretted.

CONCENTRATED FORCfa,

Reports come from Hartford that the jitneys operating there Monday, he day of the "great test in Bridge port, could almost be counted upon the fingers of one hand. Most of them had gone to Bridgeport to help prove that jitneys could take care of the crowds
 If the number that were so anxious to please the public Monday would operate in Bridgeport all of the year, there would be bit more to the ar gument in favor of the jitneys. But that number will not be run contin- uously. unless those behind the jitney move incorporate, invest in local property other than the buses. and have other ties that bind them to the city.
 Apropos, there comes word from New Haven that both the jitney and the trolley are needed, but that the trolley is indispensable. This is about the situation in most cities of the size of New Haven.

LONDON COMMENTS ON CUP.
Doubts Whether It Ever Will Pc Lifted Under Prevailing Conditions.

London, July 29.-Interest in the race between the Resolute and Sham rock ". for the Americas Cup de creased greatly during the last few days, but the English press yesterday, while giving a fair amount of space to the news of the last race, makes the loss of the cup the subject of some British public is concerned. it was as- sumed carly in the series that Sir Thomas Lipton stood little chance to win with his yacht.
 The Westminster Gazette and the Pail Mall Gazette make brief edi- torial comment On .ne race under their Notes of the Day." Both these newspapers say that sir Thomas Lip ton has the consolation of having won two races. The Pail Mall Gazette re- fers to the "conditi>n of challenge" and the Westminster Gazette aserts that there is doubt whether the cup ever will be brought back under the highly artificial conditions which pre- vail for the race''
 The handicap" rnis newspaper continues, ''is too heavy against vessel that must go to America under its own sail and there meet yachts de- signed as sailing machines for the light breezes that usually prevail when the races are sailed. Even so we shall not give up trying"

UTNEYs AND TAXES.

It Is interesting to note. in tho midst Of the jitney-trclley fight, that tho Connecticut company has to pay into the state tres surv about s41a.eoO.
 Do the iitneys pay anything other than n nominal amount?
 It is hard to be just to corpora ton. We do~pot sec nor know t"e men at it's head every day and some times many tunes a day as we do the titney men. We hear tho side of the titney men. and our human instinct is 10 side with them.
 The corporation is something in- tangible. far away. We think of its officers as sitting in cool. comfor:"ol ole offices, smoking cigars, perhaps. We have little sympathy with them. They do not have to get out and fix the bus they do not have to dirty their hands.
 Yet the trolley company helps tne state out with $475,ooo.

Ing for present wants and iuxuriea is the rule today. &
 Everyone knows this has been tho trouble m America lately-or part of the trouble. Extravagance. coupled with n lack of produ ction. has played into tho hands of the profiteers.
 This news from Italy. however. makes one wonder now thoroughly the world is affected with the disease. how long it will last, and what the re- suit will be. It is said production in America Is on the increase: il is said that in at least two industries the rule of supply and demand promises re- duced prices soon. The defation of the currency Is promised. and this wiH help. - "
 Extravagaace does not consist alone in buying automobiles and expensive furs: it may mean a useless expendi- ture of pennies. And few Americans of a little above moderate means know the value of a penny.
 Just as the effects of the war were felt less in this country than in Eu- rope. and will he recovered from more quickly, so tine effect of eTtrava- ga aco and low production will be felt later in Italy and the rest of Europe. and it will take longer to get over them.

 There can be no dispute over the good this sort of thing accomplishes.

This ol'. or pipe O mine goes on. a-dreamin' day to day, all ignorant O what folks thinks an what the people say. The wood is rather sensitive, some days it sort O shines; on other days it seeks its case an hid den thar, reclines. An them's the times it feels as though it's scent is better dead; then courage comes with morning sun an it goes straight ahead. It dreams along. still wonderin', until another day brings doubts if anyone at all cares what its pipe-drea ms say. It wonders if it's heart-beats touch a woman, man or child if it's brought hope to any one; if anyone has smiled bit more cheeriiy because its dreams have been writ down if any optimistic thought has smoothed out any frown. But it will go on wonderin' an seekin' confidence; but it jest wants the folks to know it dreams without pretense. So whether Harding gifts the prize or Cox will have his way. this humble pipe O mine, so old, will dream from day to day.

 Street Car.

Worcester, Mass, July 29.-Failure of the air control on a street car here, to function properly yesterday caused the car to start when the mo- torman and conductor had left the car to telephone and it dashed a dis tance of mile before t was brought under control by Mrs. Bertha Viella who, with her three small children, were the only passengers. The mo- torman boarded an auto and gave chase to the runaway car, and after overriding it jumped from the auto mobile into the car and brought it to a full stop.
