THE BRIDGEPORT TIMES.
Rode In Valley Of Death With
 ''Six Hundred''

Cedar Rapids, Ia., June - Ellis Cutting of this city rode into the valley of death with the immortal six hundred.
 Sitting at his home here this man who rode into the jaws of death, int othe mouth of hel1,'' recalls the charge of the Light Brigade at Balak- lava in the Crimean war. He saw Capt. Nolan, suave young aid-de- camp of the British commander, Lord Raglan, dash up and hand Lord Lu- gan: Cavalry commander, a note. MT; British trooper. @ did Iene'Gsn not know what the note contained. History says it contained these terse orders: Lord Raglan wishes the cavalry to advance rapidly to the front and try to prevent the enemy carrying away the guns-French cavalry is on your 1eft.''
 Cutting saw his commander thrust that note into his glove before its bearer rode away.
 Forward, the Light Brigade." The command rang. There was a flashof sabers. Down into the valley dashed the line of British horsemen, to certain destruction.
 Cutting, who for 45 years was a railroad employe at Iowa Falls and Cedar Falls, retired two years ago and is now making his home in this city. He is now S5 years old and IThe Eleventh Hussars of her Majes- ty, Queen Victoria. MT. Cutting be- !1eves he is among the last. if not the last, of the men who were immor- ta1ized by Tennyson.
 He vividly recalls the charge. He says he saw nothing, knew nothing heard nothing but felt within him the insane urge that drove him forward with furious desire to bury his saber in Russian breast.
 3'The Light Brigade" MT. Cutting says. was composed of the Fourth and Thirteenth Dragons, the Eighth and Eleventh Hussars and the Seven teenth Lancers. It was commanded by Lord Cardigan. The men wore red trousers and blue jacnets which gained for them the name of Cherry legs.'
 tive during the progress of the fight ing until the order to charge came. The battle had hardly begunt until it was over. BIindly a flew stragglers struggling through heaps of dead end dying, horses and men in death throes, pools of blood, fought their way to the rear of the Hpe.'
 MT. Cutting disagrees with history says there were only six.
 He was asked what was the secret of the futile and merciless command. Cutting said Lord Raglan denied to Lord Lucan that he had ever given the order to charge. and that then Lord Lucan pulled the order from his glove where he had tucked it.
 'Is that your handWriting?" Lord Lucan asked.
 MT. Cutting does not know what the reply was, but for ten minutes he saw them engaged in a battle of words. He believes Lord Raglan gave it in good faith but that in stead of rushing in the cavalry, the infantry should have been sent in to maneuver.
 After the Crimean war, MT. Cutting went to India with the British troops and passed through the mutiny. He marched from Delhi to Lucknow and fought in that famous siege. Once he was wounded. He passed through Egypt and was in active service in South Africa in 1857. In June 1860 he received his discharge from the British army, and in 1871 he came to the United States.

Wealthy Chicagoan Breeding Goats
 For Milk Supply

DeleVan Lake, Wis, June 8.-Pre- pairing for the babies in the next aOo, ,ooo,o 900 increase Of the United wi1 bring a demand for more goats than can be raised, Charles A. Ste vens, wealthy Chicago business man js breeding the Cinderella of the American barn yard. MT. Stevens plans to invite distinguished visitors to a goat auction on his estate at his fashionable summer resort June "A, and at which he will dispose of a herd to twelve other persons who are their milk. These twelve also are said to be wealthy. The auction is not confined to these twelve but no other bids are expected.
 The invited guests will include rail road officers who have charge of az ricultural promotion on their lines, presidents of leading agricultural colleges, prominent physicians, in cludipg baby specialists, together with officers of infant welfare organiza- tions and agencies. The sale will af- ford opportunity for the study of
 milk goats and methods of breeding.
 MT. Stevens, according to his own account, started his first herd three years ago with three does, utilizing an old horse-and-carriag stable. He learned, he said, that the supply Of pure bred. does had become made quate to the demand: Last fall a herdman appeared on the scene very determined to buy five of my does, and offered a very high price, giving me the privilege of selecting them declined the offer for two reasons: would have been robbing him had accepted the offer, and had no does for sale. I asked the herdsman whom he represented and he de- clined to give the name, saying that he had the money to pay for them and wanted to take them with him.
 "A week or so later I received a letter from a prominent man in St. Paul, stating that it was his herds man that had called on me and ask ing me where he could get them. I was invited to lunch with him and a prominent Chicagoan at a Chicago club. They asked me if I would not select for them while in California a couple of pieces each I told them that if they would make up car load, equip the car properly with room for the man, milking stand, feed, water, etc, that I would select the goats for them. The result was that two carloads were made up, and they will be disposed of on a bid for choice' plan at the sale June 24.
 Many Humanitarian workers, like Mrs. James A. Patten, who have within the last year or two entered this industry by starting small herds, are of a class that is giving to the industry a substantial and prominent character"

Appeals To
 King For Her Refreshment Stand

London. June S-By appealing to King George. friends of Mrs. Caroline Orford hope to save from abolition the little refreshment kiosk in St. James Park which she has conduct ed for the past 60 years and which has been in the possession of her family for three centuries.
 Mrs. Orfort1's great-great-grand mother started the business in a lit tie shelter near the Man opposite the Horse Guards Parade, and was 101 years olod when she left it to her daughter. Successive mother-to- daughter transfers have kept the re- freshment stand in the family's hands for more than 300 years.
 The site is now wanted by the Office of Works for the erection of the Guards war memorial, but an in fiueptia1 committee is trying to have another location substituted.

Unemployed May
 Become Farmers

Stockholm, June s-Before very long the Swedish unemployed may have a chance to become independent farmers. When they recently ex, pressed the desire to obtain small farms of their own where they might work till old age without being sub- jected to enforced idIenesS their re- quest sounded at first like wishing for the moon.
 But not so to the Minister of Agri- culture, who immediately ordered an forming a farm colony in the prov ince of Soedermanland. If the plan is found feasible the government may purchase land to be parceled among of course, involve more than ac- quiring the land. The governm ment will have to build cottages on the farms and supply its indigent citi- zens with. live stock farm implements and living expenses for the first year.
 The farm project is one of the most important and interesting of many attempts for relieving the unenlploy- ment troubles of the country. Last winter several thousand iobless were given instruction in almost any branch of learning in which they were in- set aside for doles and for public works at which the otherwise un- employed wouldn't be able to earn a living wage, and it was hoped that
  ter. Nevertheless, unemployment is still the most serious problem of Sweden despite a slight decrease in the number of idle.
 The jobless still number more than 150. 1000, of whom about 65,O00 re- ceive aid. This nun. Der is higher than was expected and in order to keep within the budget. the Unem- ployment Commission and the govern ment have had to cancel during the summer unemployment aid to unrnar- ried men and women, all farn1work- CTS and fishermen. It is believed that these classes can shift for themselves during the summer and pick up enough work to keep them going. Married men with families still draw stipends. while relief work of all kinds is being planned.
 The Unemployment Commission is laying plans for extensive forest work in cooperation with the Forestry Board and the State Domains Depart ment. Furthermore, about $200,- 900 has been diverted from the un- employment fund for buying paving stones to be placed at the disposal, free of cost, of certain towns and highway boards for the improvement of streets and roads. thus afording employment to considerable numbers.
