Gilbert r. Chadbourne. private secre.
tary to the Governor. at the close Of
the Friday morning session Of thu
Legislature, was the sensation OF the
day in the State House. Language
of the most descriptive and lurid sort
was used. The alteration occurred

when Senator Hinckley came along.
Senator Bemis beckoned to the Cum

them. Senator Bemis lstate:.. that
they were talking of the vetoes and
expressed the opinion that it might
be wrong to be overriding the Objec-
lions Of the Governor. This precipi.
tated the argument. ~
According to Secretary Chad.
bourne, Senator Hinckley charged
that Governor Baxter was q cheap
fakir; that he was not sincere and
that he was also endeavorinG to use
the veto power of the chief executive
to control legislation and that he
further said that he was tired and

Mr.. Chadbourne says that he re-
piled that Mr.. Hinckley was going
about the State House organizing the
Legislature against the Governor and
that he ought to be ashamed Of HIM

bourne.
Senator Hinckley's version Of the
affair is in the main the same, but
he asserts that Sec. Chadbourne used
much profanity, which he would not
care to repeat; that he told the sem

his State to crafty his own political
ambitions and that it was - dis.
grace for the Senate to do as it has
and the Legislature to override the
vetos.
"Mr. Chadbourne told me that
was one of the cheapest things in the
State and that I was not regarded al
straight" said Senator Hinckley.
Mr.. Hinckley says that he said
among other things that he could not
regard the Governor as sincere; that
he did regard him as a fakir and
that he was tired and sick Of q pri.

No Increase in
SIGHT at Lewiston

Lewiston, Me-, March 16-Mill men
here say no increase in wages at the
Lewiston textile mills is contem-
plated for the present so far as they
know. Some of the smaller Massa-
chusetts mills, they said, maintained
a lower wage scale than the one in
force here, and as they had not pre-
viously been able to meet the de-
mands of operatives, there, as gen.
erously as they had been dealt with
in. Lewiston. it was not improbable
that advances there now wehe made
to even up the scale to compare with
wage scales Of the larger mills.
ANY general advance in wages
would, it was explained. probably
include all the textile mills in New
England.

They are stately and they're grace full and they're perfect thirty-four's, are the girls of the Greenwich Vil- lage Follies playing all this week at Parsons theater, Hartford. But more than this are these winsome wearers of wondrous wardrohes. True. there are no Pattis nor Ponseles among them, but what's a Pat or Pons be- tween friends? The dainty mRidens flutter and Ait about Joe Brown, the man with a mouth, delightful lack O. manly beauty and ability to raise the lowest of low comedy to sublimely funny heights. and they lend their en- chantment to Sammy Whites gro- tesque versatility.
 No one will wander dreamily away from this "Revisical Comedy" with hands clasped, eyes upturned in ecstasy murmuring grand, inspiring, epoch .making:" but few who have any appreciation of beauty, grace, humor, and harmony of sound and color will fail to pronounce this third annual revue of The Bohemians, Inc, A. l.. Jones and Morris Green, man. aging directors, thoroughly enter taining bit of pretty nonsense, per meated with good humor
 Frankly it may be admitted that even a Connecticut audience is some what chagrined to find the first per son appearing upon the stage to be a reformer who is determined to replace the chorus girl with the unemotional martonette. This gentleman's early demise, right before the footlights is not regretted. One feels better about it after going with him to heaven, seeing the clever figures gracefully dancing on their strings, and one is absolutely relieved when the Judge I.andis" of heaven allows the reform CT to return to earth in company with one of the male angels who is to as sume the same angelic role on earth for the show which will contain the chorus girl in flesh and blood.

Now isn't that just like woman to keep nagging when she finds her self in a corner?"
 T am not nagging, Jack. l have done the very best ] could with this apartment. If you had wanted a wife who was thoroughly econom- ical, who knew all about the spend ing of money carefully and judi ciously--which, you will allow me to say, you do not know how to do yourself-you should never have married me.
 You saw how we lived at home You knew that my father was wealthy You knew under what con- ditions was brought up and you fell madly in love with me. For what reason l do not know. for do not seem to suit you now.
 You would never have fallen in love with the kind of girl that you evidently want for 6 wife and I am afraid l cannot be made oyer into that kind.
 Don't make me wish ] had not married you, Jack, for if I do, even for very little while, it will take from me something that l can never put back into my heart.
 Take me into your arms, Jack, and tell me you love me. Tell me that you, too, made a mistake in not letting me show you the apart ment before 1 signed the lease"
 Instead of doing as I asked him, John Alden Prescott said in voice that 1 had never heard from him before. T haven't signed that lease yet. We can move to some other place"
 You won't expect me to rent any other place and move to it, will you?"
 Hardly" he said with a satirical laugh.
 Leaving him standing there ] went into our bedroom and closed and locked the door.
