SEVEN HECTIC DAYS IN GOTHAM

birth control7 Well, $4,000 babies
werei entered in the health exhibit
beauty contest.
Horse flesh and art have also had
their innings, The seth annual horse
show, deserving Madison Square Gar
den, has filled Squadron A armory
with glory of flashing hoofs. satin
smooth TANKS and luminous intelll-
gent eyes that would put an avenue
full of motor cars to shame for grace
and lytheness. Maybe the day of the
horse is over, but 1t is obviou that
several thousand horse breeders, own
ers and mere admirers are, unaware
of the fact.
One afternoon the bride paths in
Central park were reserved for some
spectacular riding and jumping,
which let the public in gratis for one
of the prettiest slices of the show.
Bursting with Art
AS for art-the town is bursting
with it. Henry Il. Huntington OF New
York and San Marine, Cal, has an
nounced that the GainsN orough
Blue Boy is to be placed on ex-
hibition within month before its
trip to the west. For this master
piece Mr., Huntington paid the tidy
price of s72S,000. which is said to be
the highest price ever paid for a
painting. 1t is a price which should
make Gainsborough roll over in his
sarcophagus with envy. Moreover.
after eight years OF bidding and
coaxing, the Metropolitan museum
has OBTAINED a lovely Della Robbia
sculpture which sends the critics into
raptures. 1t Is called Prudence
and portrays two-faced young per-
son with young-lady's head on one
side and an old gentleman's on the
other: the idea being that Prudence
gives wisdom of age to even the
young and looks in both directions
In one hand the lady holds mirror
which means that Prudence is strong
on reflection-whlle in the other she
holds-pretty thought.-the incest
fat snake, typyfing wisdom. The
lady was modelled about the year
s50 and comes from a Florentine
palace, whose owners apparently did
not give sufficient thought to the
prudence idea or they would not have
had to part with her.

Unemployment Kills
 Off Dry Law Good
Decrease in Petty Grimes After Laws Passage More Than Offset
 Now

Hartford, July 2o.-A decrease of at least 50 per cent in non-support and drunkenness cases in Connecticut apparently resulted from prohibition, William c. Baxter, secretary for the Connecticut State Prison Association, said yesterday, adding that the un- employment and hard times of the last three months have, however, re suited in an increase in petty crimes and drunkenness, bringing the figures back to pre-prohibition days.
 ''The effect of prohibition, so far as minor crimes are concerned, has been very noticeable throughout the state, " Mr. Baxter said. For instance, the county jail population has been very greatly decreased. So far as the more serious crimes are concerned they are very often the work of hardened or professional criminals"
 Industrial depression usually re- suits in greatly increased percentage of crime, Mr. Baxter said: For some men when they can't get things one way, will take them another"

New Britain to Get
 Reduced Gas Rates
Twenty Cents Per Thousand Feet to
 Go Off On September I.

New Britain, July 2o.-This city is to get 20 cents reduction per thous- and feet of its gas charges on or about September I, according to a communication received by Mayor Curtis from the Gas Light Company following request of the Common Council that the rates be reduced. The mayor and corporation counsel were appointed committee to take the matter up with the gas company and the following letter is the result
 Regarding resolution concerning price of gas and electricity If you will look back over the records, you will see that this company has always voluntarily made reductions just as fast as conditions would warrant At no time have we advanced the price unless driven by abs olute necessity
 Tt has been the intention of the management to propose to the di- tectors a reduction in the price of gas, ot 20 cents per 1000 cubic feet |; this reduction to take place after the reading of the meters in September purchasin gcigars, will accept only be held until after we have completed negotiations for a new oil contract so that 1 am unable to give you def- mite assurance, but 1t is my belief that this suggestion will be adopted and a reduction of 20 cents per thousand feet will be made"

Cigar Jobbers Drop
 Union Label Goods
New Haveners Tell Manufacturers This Is Anti-Label Field and
 Challenge Workers.

Recently one of New Haven's most prominent jobbers of cigars and to- baCCO notified a New York State firm ot Clgar manufacturers who had con- ducted a union shop for many years and whose brands are distributed locally by these jobbers that they could dispense with the union label and save money thereby because the workers of this vicinity, they alleged, had become indifferent and would buy cigars without the union label As a result these manufacturers have closed their New York factory and opened two nOn-union factories i'll Pennsylvania. Evidently these same jobbers have notified other unfair manufacturers that New Haven is a fertile field for non-union cigars, for never before has such a persistent establish non-union brands in this city as has been made during the past month.
 This is a direct challenge to the honor and integrity of organized la Dor in this city and it should be met with all the powers of resistence at it's command. These would be union wreckers should be made to under stand that New Haven union men are not indifferent; that they do not endorse antl-union tactics and that they will not buy nOn-union cigars. These exploiters of cheap labor have not been able to market their non union products in this city hereto fore and if every union man does his duty they will not succeed now.
 This fight which concerns all union men and which is of vital importance to the cigarmakers union will be won if members of organized labor, when purchasing cigars, will accept only those that are packed in boxes bear ing the Blue Union Label of the Cigarmakers Union and at the same time notify their dealer that the dis play or sale of non-union cigars is offensive to them as members of or ganized labor and that they will not patronize those who are guilty of such practices. Members of organ ized labor have given splendid sup port to the Cigarmakers Union in the past, and we know that they will do so in the future; and when that old fighting spirit which made New England famous for it's loyalty to Blue Label cigars is aroused unfair New Haven jobbers and non-union manufacturers generally will realize that they cannot make New Haven a dumping ground for their unfair pro- ducts and will learn that New Haven men are still loyal to the Blue Label of the Cigarmakers Union.
 Demand union made cigars and help win the fight.

STEAL" EXPOSURE
 PUTS SOFT PEDAL
 ON RAILROAD GRAB
Country Cannot See How Giving Less Than Half to Soldiers
 Would Fit.

Washington, July 29.-Owing to the exposure by the farmer and labor press of the attempted steal of $5oo,- 100000 from the treasury of the United States, the soft pedal has been put on talk along that line. Another reason for singing low about the deal is the fact that the story of the steal appeared at the same time that the country was being informed that the treasury was so badly bent if we give the men who volunteered and were drafted $2oo, ,ooo,o ,ooo the country would go broke and the treasury emptied
 The two statements didn't jibe and stand why it should break the country to give $2oo, ,ooo to the soldiers and 1t would not to give two and a half times that much to the railroads.
 Also the Interstate Commerce Commission has commenced to back up on it's endorsement of the formula of inefficiency of labor" and is be- ginning to crawflsh thereon, especial ly since Basil M. Manly, formerly joint chairman of the War Labor Board and now director of the Peo- ple's Legislative Service, has filed a formal petition with that body against the railroads Cla1mS on account Of alleged inefficiency of labor and de ficent maintenance. He said he was prepared to prove that such claims should be rejected because they were without warrant of law, were in large part fraudulent, were contrary to the facts contained in the sworn state ments fixed with the commission by the roads, and were based upon ex- traVapant estimates
 "These claims" said Mr. Manly. "constitute a deliberate program of the railroads to offset their obliga- tions to the government by creating fictitious claims, which may be prose cuted indefinitely or until time and in sistence have given them an appear ance of reality" All of which, as said before, makes the commission pause because Manly has also asked for the right to cross examine the managers on their claims and stands ready and willing to prove all he states.
 But let no one think the railroad fnanciers are going to give up their assault upon the treasury. If they

As one wise guy puts 1t, "They're trying to find some way to pluck the goose without the goose squawking too much"
 In the meantime Ford goes right along running his road, making a profit, raising wages and reducing rates, which greatly worries the highbinders of finance, Wreckers of railroads, the Interstate Commerce Commission and the politicians wor- ried about the elections next year.
 Up at the senate hearing into con- ditions existing in the Mingo region of West Virginia, is being told the old, old story of control of bribery and intimidation of public officials by mine owners The operators first fake gun fights, then yell for help and employ thug detective agencies 10 beat up and shoot miners, then they accuse the locked out miners of being responsible for all the trouble,
 As the mine owners control the press and can bring financial pressure to bear upon certain elements, they get away with murder, arson and de nial of lawful rights to the citizen, and it is only when some official re- fuses to be bribed or intimidated that law and order prevail,
 "Sid' Hatfield, chief of police Of Matewan, whom the mine owning destroyers of constitution and law declare to be a gun1nan and murder CT because he observed the law and arrested gunmen violating the law, and was compelled to shoot in de fense of his life and the law, was a witness and his appearance gave the lie to all the stories of his being a bad" man.
