New York City: Board Walk, Atiantic City. and Hartford depot TRELEPHONE CALLS. The different. departments, . except [the charity board, have now organized and the work of the year can now be started. The board of public works nd the board of public safety have had no difficulty in organizing and electing officers. This is as it should lbe. In the case of the former, how- ever, a question was asked as to the Ireasons for dropping Mr. Oldershaw lag city engineer, but no information was given, the question being an- jswered by the statement that Mr. Hal- [loran as mayor designated whom he |wanted to head the department, and jMayor Quigley had done the same. When Mr. Hafloran was first elected ayor there was a vacanoy in the esidency of/the boanrd of public ‘orks and Mr. Moore was selected to i it, . presumably, as has been stated, theirequest of the new mayor; but jthat in no way relates to the present » because the city engineer ias lmd to serve'during the pleasure the board and in order to remove m there ought to be some method ides declaring the office vacant. fThe latter: course was necessary last in order to pave the way for ® new man, but it would seem as if 2 Oldershaw should have been Mlked to resign or ocalled before the ird and ' informed of what it was oposed to+do. As matters stand now § redognizediprecedent has been estab- h to thereffect that the mayor may cide who shall be at the head of department, which, of course, is within his: powers, ‘and that when leity engineer is to be dropped ere shall be no ceremony about it jbut just the passage of a vote de- ring the office vacant. A great many people will not be pleased with that method of doing busi- ness, not perhaps that it is unlaw- ul, ‘but that it is against that spirit flirness avhich the averago person shes' tosee shown.' It is’all over w, for this year anyway, and it will interesting. to,note the actlons of ] ure years. It is the oity that we e all interested in at present. 'If it given better service under the new: irrangement we shall all have reason e’ grateful CNDAY LAW AT SAVIN ROCK What object can there be in taking the West Haven Sunday ocases to the court as suggested?

PSRRI s S ] AND TOWN ELEOCTIONS. onsiderable space 1s being given e newspapers these days. to the nblican victories in some three or towns in this 'state recently, | while the democratic press does any. politics in them, the re- papers are inclined to take Ia more hopeful view of the situation, all seeing a further victory in the fall. 1t will be noticed that one side pays a great deal of attention to the re- sult of the contest in Hartford, while the other side does not refer to it at all. Yet the election in the capital city was the most important of all, in fact more so than all the others put together. National affairs had no more to do with the election of the democratic ticket there than they did with the republican victory in New Britain. It is an easy matter to find the cause of ithe changes in every community if an intelligent effort is made to look for them. Business and like and dislike of candidates govern local elections. If a voter dislikes a candidate for a national office he may support him because the opponent may represent an issue to which the voter is opposed, but if it is a local election he will vote against him :underall' circum- ‘stances. The warden of the borough of Naugatuck during the past two years hes been a socialist, but this year he was beaten by a republican, because 4t is stated that the socialists had been carried off their feet by the two victories, neglected the promises made and sought to strengthen their own party and out they went. The tarift, currercy, tolls question or the Mexican war had no more to do with that contest than did the basketball games played there last winter. And the same is true of all other elections in this state, BECKER ON TRIAL AGAIN. Former Lieutenant Becker was placed on trial today for the second time for the murder of Herman Rosenthal. The eyes of the entire country are on this case, first because of the prominence of the accused, many believing that the killing was done for the purpose of protecting a system of graft and blackmall iIn New York city and because four men have been electrocuted for the orime. When the court of 'appeals ordered a new trial for Becker it re- ferred to the evidence of certain wit- nesses which, it said, should have been rejected and without which it was felt at the time a conviction could not have been secured. The district attorney expressed his doubt as to whether it would be .possible .to secure a con- viction of Becker .without that evi- dence, but the point was raised by the newspapers that the matter should be left to the courts to decide and now the case is back there to be tried again. ©One of the gunmen said' before go- ing: to -the electric chair that.' the murder was a gamblers’ quarrel and that Becker had :nothing to do with ‘4t. Whether this statement will fig- ure In the case this time is a ques- tion. An effort wil be made to keep it out. What adds to- the interest in the case is.the system ‘of blackmail which has been practised in New York by the police. The people want to see that ended and a belief that Becker represents it s causing public feeling to set against him. The New TYork World says that it is the sys- tem that is in the dock on trial. Becker has some peculiar witnesses against him, men who turned state’s evidence in order t6 save themselves. At least one or two are evidently afraid that they may yet be put on trial for the same crime of which Becker is now charged. Fear of the Automobile. (Detroit Tribune.) Child training, especially when it runs counter to the impulse of free- dom, is difficult work. But one of the first things the child learns Is fear of death. One mother makes a careful practice of reading to her two small children every newspaper account of the death of a child un- ‘der ‘an automobile: She leaves out any horrible. detalls of the accident| which might injure the child’s sensi- bilities, but she impresses the event on the child’s mind .by giving the.name of the unfortunate victim, its age, and as nearly as possible the location ‘of ‘the accident. i Both mother and achoul teacher, may impress on the child - mind the dangers of the streets and cite daily examples of the result of child care- lessness. It'is one of the best means by ‘which the youngsters may be con- vinced of the need for exercising cau- tion. The killing of children under the wheels of automobiles has started with the coming of summer and more are likely to follow. Keep the child informed of the manner of each acci- dent. In Hartford a thousand Connecticut women marched through the streets to show their desire for the vote. The sympathies of thousands of other wo- men were with them, while by still others the demonstration was regar- ed with feelings ranging all the way from mild interest to strong disap- proval. The desirea end was at- tained, of calling’ the attention of the women of the state to the vitality of the movement. For it is with the wo- men themselves that the decision lies as to whether or not they receive the vote. When they very generally want 1t they will get it.—Bridgeport Stan- dard. NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 1014. FACTS AND FANCIES. Another Sunday episode was sev- eral arrests at Savin Rock. It is said the lid at that popular resort has been lifted, to let the average youth look in to see what grandpa used to get away with some years back.—Middletown Penny Press. Mayor Mitchel of New York ex- cited the wrath of the woman suf- fragists, who were in no mood for playful treatment, when he told them in an address on Saturday that they would get the ballot when enough of them wanted it but that it wouldn’t be worth what they thought it was. They told him that they would be the judges of that and, anyway, they wanted it and were going to have it.—Waterbury Ameri- can. This yearning for the open air upon the only day in the week in which it can be enjoyed is the fund- ! amental and dominating cause of the‘ demand for a ‘more. liberal observ- | ance of the -day. The demand does not- spring: from a spirit of irrever- ence. Irreverence ‘has nothing to do with it. It is the direct of that sense of physical freedom which the open air instantly breeds | in one. It would be not at all diffi- cult to meet the if ‘all people were agreed upon the use to which they wunt to put their freedom on Sunday. What compli- cates the problem and impels a gen- erous view is the fact that people dif- fer in their recreative needs as they do in their physical needs.— New Ha- ven Journal-Courier- The Fox Ranch Industry. (Toronto Globe.) effect | yearning involved | The report for 1913 of the com- ! missioner of agriculture in Prince Ed- | ward Island contains statistics that show the importance of this indus- | try in that province. Under the au- thority of a statute passed year to change the mode of taxation of young=foxes, an enumeration was made last August, and it was found that there were 273 ranches, stocked with foxes young and old at the ag- gregate value of $15,000,000. Some idea of the local importance of fox ranching may be obtained from the fact that the aggregate value of all in that | the ordinary farm live stock on the island was, at the census of 1911, less | than seven and a half millions; just half of the value of the foxes. The report notes a falling off in i the increase of young foxes in 1913, attributing it to a phenomenal heatead | term near the end of April. since been taken to improve the ven- tilation of the dens, and as the foxes | ate hardy and healthy animals, and | wor . there has never been any epidemic diseases among them, confidence is expressed that the industry will con- tinue in its present favorable posi- tion. Fur farming has been widened to include the rearing of beaver, rac- c¢oon, mink, muskrat, sable and fisher, | as well as ‘the sheep that produces Persian lamb fur. The people of Prince Edward are assured that fur - production 1is likely to become a great | World indtstry, fn_which Prince Ed- ward Island has been' a pioneer. The réports of fox fur sales in Lon- don, Eng., for March of this year con- tain important lessons for the fox rancher. A very large proportion of the pelts offered were of the pure black variety, and owing to a falling off in the demand for this class prices went very low. The given is-that black skins may be very successfully imitated by dyeing, while the silver black variety does lenqd itself to imitation. The highest price paid for one pelt of this sort was over $1,800. Such skins are ad- mired for their sheen, the beauty and length of their overhairs, and the quality of their underwool, and for the present at least this description applies to by far the greater number of Prince Edward Island foxes. Cost of Raising a Boy. (Indianapolis News.) Academic statisticians frequently apply their arithmetic to some strange flelds of investigation. A professor of Chicago university, for example, has figured out the cost of rearing a boy. The very cheapest rearing, he says, costs the parents $4,000 to bring the boy from babyhood to the age of eighteen. Less than this will not suf- fice, but as much more may be spent as the parents can afford. Presum- ably he refers only to the necessary rthinimum cash outlay, and makes no allowance for the parental time, knowledge or experience. Some par- ents, of course, gain knowledge and the experience at the expense of the boy, and the time of other parents is. without value., So it is barely pos- sible the professor’s calculations con- template a profit and loss balance between boy and parents that elim- inates these items from his statisties. Even so, it is not entirely clear how he arrives at his final sum. Nor is it at'all clear that any prac- tical p se has been served by his arithmetf€al exploits. If he could show that a $4,000 boy, grown into manhood, is less valuable than a $10,- 000 boy, something might be proved by his figures. But-he can not. The $4,000 boy may be a million dollar man and the $10,000 boy an im- pecunious dependent. Cheap raising does not mean a cheap product when it comes to reafing boys. No doubt Abraham Lincoln, for instance, cost his parents less than $4,000; he very likely left the parental roof with the financial accounting all in his favor. And one would not have to go far to cite plenty of examples to prove that lavish expenditures in upbringing has been worse than money wasted. There is a homely old saying to i the effect that a silk purse cannot be made from a plg's ear. But it is probably closer to the point to say that raising a boy is a gamble at best ——a gamble for the boy and a gamble for the parents. Still it s the best gamble in the world and, somehow, on the whole, it turns out pretty well. The $4,000 wager, plus affection, hope, interest, faith, may all be lost, but still it pays to rear the boy. May his numbers increase and his shadow never grow less! not | Care has | WHAT OTHERS SAY Views on all sides of timely questions as discussed In ex- changes that come to Herald office. The Menacing Slides. (The Detroit Free Press.) According to what is meant to be a reassuring message from Panama, fears that the opening of the canal, set for January, 1915, would have to be indefinitely postponed have been growing less each day because dredges and steamshovels are taking out dirt and rocks much faster than they slide into the canal. This is an admission that there has been some serious anxiety over the condition of the slides in Culebra cut. Tt is also an indirect admlssion that this anxiety is not altogether a thing of the past. Indeed, further along in this “reassuring” message. there 'is & } statement that the engineers cannot tell what may happen-to the’canal through the caving in of hills until after the rainy season has passed. The truth is that engineers at Panama have found the menaces of the slides much greater than they at first supposed, or. at least than they at first announced to the world. This, of course, is not the fault of the ex- perts. If there is any fault ‘it is to be charged up to soil conditions at | the isthmus, which have proven .them- selves deceptive and in a literal sense slippery. The people of the United States may take comfort in one assurance, which is that present menace is not a | fatal one. The ditch has been dug, the engineering feats which seemed beyond human achievement have been performed. What now remains is a mere matter of endurance and patience, so far as the slides are con- cerned. The engineers must dredge until the hills are so far worn away that the slides can no longer inter- fere with navigation. After that thetre will remain the other question as to the stability of the underlying for- mations to support permanently the immense weight of the lock structures and’ their contents, but on this point time a®d time alone can furnish in- formation. Engineers differ about it now and have differed since the canal work started. Exercised Her Rights. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) Feeling that the sarcasm of a poem upon the subject of female suffrage | her, a Cleveland | was intended for determined to avenge her wounded feelings. She argued in this peculiarly feminine fashion: “The paper did not use my name. Therefore I cannot sue it. But I can and must chastise the editor and the poet. As a believer in equal rights I cannot call upon my husband to administer the thrashing, but must do it myself.” Borrowing a whip, she first visited the editor and when he admitted that | anonymous | poem she proceeded to the castigation:! { The unhappy editor had a walking he had published the stick, and with this warded off the blows. Next came the poet, who was' found frittering away his time in a cigar. store. When the whip: had ceased its lashings he lighted another | cigaret and remarked that. devotion explumation | t0 the muse had its drawbacks. The avenging virago returned to her home and made the " final announcement that women are able to protect them- selves, and that her name as a leader of a_ political movement had been vindicated. 5 ‘What she overlooked was that nel- ther the editor nor the poet forgot themselves so far as to return blow for blow, which th might have done had the suffragist’s husband acted as her proxy. Nor did the policeman on the beat hale her off to the gaol for fighting and acting in a disorderiy manner contrary to the statutes made and provided. Nothing of the kind! It is suspected that after she had dis- appeared around the corner the edi- tor, the poet and the policeman came together and poured a libation to some divinity, rendering thanks that life was no worse for her tantrum. Sex conspiracy in its most hideous form!, At the same time the avenger is warned to keep out of the path of the wife of the editor and the wlife of the poet. They may prove to be as peeuliar about punishments as she 'is. LIVELY INTEREST IN GERMAN ‘EXPOSITION Printing Ofice at Washington and Several American Libraries Rep. .. resented Among Arts Exhibits.

As a sequel to the alleged fight and assault in Barney Miller's on Satur- day night Judge Meskill, in the police court this morning, discharged Alex Zudnik who was charged with creat- ing a disturbance in the store. _A. Zucker, head clerk in the store, ap- Peared with a slight scratch under his eye, and testified that Zudnik punched him in the eye (Oui! Oui! Oui!) His testimony was borne out by S. Dubois, Isador Bassam and E. 8. Kallman, all clerks in the. store; and Jacob Kaplan, a baker. On the other hand Attorney W. F.

In discharging the accused the judge said that he took the same view of the case as did Offi- cer Lamphere and thought there was doubt enough about Zudnik's guilt to warrant his dismissal. Rose Is Sent Away. Rose Smith, aged sweet seventeen and a frequenter of tango halls, was sentenced to incarceration at the House of the Good Shepherd in Hart- ford. The fair Rose appeared in chambers dolled out in a flashy green coat and a petulant face. ‘When she went out it was in sobs and protesta- tions that she “just wouldn’t go to that horrid place.” She was arrested on complaint of her parents who feared that she might fall into evil ways. She has not been home for about a week and was ar- rested at the Hotel Beloin last night by Officer Kelly. Stole Circus Blanket.

Mexican Crisis Will Not Cause Aban- donment of War Department Plans. ‘Washington, May 6.—There will be no suspension or abandonment of the elaborate plans of the war department for holding the students’ military in- struction camps this summer because of the Mexican crisis. In fact, the Mexican trouble has served to em- phasize the necessity for such prep- aration of the youth of the country, in the opinion of the general staff. Many letters are being received from heads of educational institu- tions and from individual students, asking for information as to the de- partment’s plans for the summer. Answers are being returned that the four camps for student instraction will be held at Asheville, N. C., July 6 to August 7 inclusive; at Burling- ton, Vermont, and Luddington, Mich., during the same period, and at Mon- terey, Cal., from June 26 to July 31, and applicants for instructioh are re- quested to present their papers to the department at the earliest possible moment, .

Face and Head Cured. — e 24 Gilbert St., New Britain, Conn. — “My little boy’s face used to'get awful red and sometimes when I used to wash it it would bleed. Then it got blotchy all over and was horrid looking. His face broke out in red spots and then became scaly. He used to scratch them until he would make them bleed. Then his head started to break out. He was restless at night and com- plained of his face being sore. His head was all little cuts from scratching it. “So I thought I would send for a sample of the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I only used them for a few days when there was such a change in his looks. His face began to get clear. When the sample was gono I got one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment. I washed his face with the Cuticura Soap and warm water every night and morning and applied the Cuticura Ointment for four weeks and his face was cured. I got another cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint- ment and was only using them for two weeks and they made his scalp nice and clean. His head was cured.” (Signed) Mrs. Isabelle Guenther, May 26, 1913.
