If Mr.. Roosevelt would like to con-
found his critics and hear the country
as a whole cheer as it has not cheered
before, he might wait until the next OF
these domestic DULLES makes thru
and then call his bluff and slap him
down with the same frmness a"d force
he used the other day or Herr Hitler.
1t may be difficult for him to believe
but the stage has been reached where
more votes are to be lost by being ten
der with these professional trouble
makers than by tying up with them.
A correct reading of the last election
returns would show him that.

Though to a considerable extent
these gentlemen are buffers, they in

pressure, they seem able to force an

which accelerate our drift toward ma

 The Golden Text is from Corin- thians E: l9: What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which Is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?"
 Selections from the Bible Include the following passages from Isa. 6l: 10; T will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall bejoyful in my God: for he hath clother me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of right eousness, as bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels"
 Readings from the Christian Sci ence textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scripture" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following: "The divine Mind, which forms the bud and blossom, will care for the human body, even as 1t clothes the lily; but let omortal interfere with Gods government by thrusting in the laws of erring, human concepts |.

Atty Eli Johnson Counsel in N. Y. Case on Front
 Pages of Newspapers

While a considerable portion of the nation evinced interest in the efforts of Miss Eileen Herrick and George Lowther, 3rd, to climax their romance with the natural se- quence of marriage, the eyes of Wa terbury were upon, not these cer- tral figures in one of New York,s latest Blue Book episodes, but in one of the characters behind the scenes.
 Appearing as counsel for Mir. Low ther who carried his efforts to wed Miss Herrick, over her parents pro- tests, into the courts, is Attorney Eli Johnson, a native of this city and for many years one of the more prominent lawyers in New York City.

Total In
 October Shows Drop
II Less This Year Than in l93S-Ten Fatalities Are
 Recorded in First Ten Months of Year

Statistics compiled by Officer James Little, of the accident preven- tion bureau, reveal reduction of Il accidents last month as compared to October, 1888. This represents 15 per cent decrease.
 Reduction of accidents as com- pared to October, 1887, shows much greater improvement as there were 38 more accidents in October of that year.
 Fatalities total eight for the ten months period of the current year; nine for the same period in 1887, and seven for the similar period in 1888.
 Seven of the current years total motor vehicle deaths have involved pedestrians.
 The decided monthly decrease in total accidents for 1889 can be att tributed to the relentless campaign against traffic accidents being car ried out by the accident prevention bureau and Investigating squad un- der the supervision of Captain Will liam Duggan. Lieutenant Joseph Me- Evoy and Sergeant Charles Me- Weeney. These men are directing Waterbury's scientific approach to the complex problem of traffic acci- dents and have done much to make Waterbury a safer city.
