It was reported in Noank Wednesday that a summer hotel is to be erected on Muse Island, whioh is separated from the mainland near the lighthouse by only a narrow stralt. It'is also said that @ causeway s to be bullt from the is- land to the mainland. This is entirely practical, as there is very little depth of water in the strait. The report is said to emanate from Mystic, but there is no way to verify it, as the owners .of the island live in distant cities. Un- doubtedly* the island would make an ideal situation for a summer hotel, be- cause of several features. Some of them are as follows: It has a fine view of Fishers Island Sound and adjacent waters; the village Is easy of access, being on the main road from Boston to New York, with convenient trolley connections with New London. New Machinery for Pequot Mills. Five carloads of new machinery ar- rived on the Central Vermont raflway Tuesday for the Pequot mills at Mont. ville. The machinery consists of new spinning frames.

H. Page Boiler Co. property in this eity, and erect thereon a new in- dustrial building. Tha property can be purchased for $5,000, and it is believed that sum can be raised. Provided the amount is raised the company will be organized, the stock having a value of $100 a share. It Is the idea to erect & modern manufacturing plant there and rent space to small concerns, for which it is believed there is a demand at the present time, and it is thought from the locatign and the cheapness of elec- trical poNer that the entire building would soon be occupied. The size and arrangement of the proposed bullding is as yet not determined. The Page company desires to sell, as it Intends to erect a storehouse here for the serving of the trade in this part of the country.

TAXATION WITHOUT ADEQUATE REPRESENTATION. Twelve Towns Would Pay Over One- Half of State Tax. ‘The combined d lists of all the towns in Connecticut amount approxi- mately to $830,000,000. The proposed state tax of one-haltf mili would raise about §$415,000. The combined grand lists of the twelve largest towns, viz, New Haven, Hariford, Bridgeport, Wa- terbury, w Britaln, Meriden, wich, Danbury, New London, Middle- Longon Office—Test Letters Caught town, Norwalk and Stamford, is ap- proximately $415,000,000, says the Wa- terbury Repubil . One-haif mjll tax on this amounts to $207,500. These twelve towns will therefore pay 60 per cent, of the tax. The combined grand lists of the fol- lowing towns, viz, Lebanon, Nort] Stoningtoa, Preston, Union, Reddin Hartland, Ashford, Canterbury, Bark: hamsted, Harwinton, Goshen and Col- chester, is $5,380,000. One-half mill tax on this amounts to about $3,69, ¢ a little more than 6 1-2 per cent. of the tax. The twelve towns which pay 50 per cent, of the entire tax have twenty- four representatives and the twelve towns which pay 6 1-2 per cent. have also twenty-four representatives. ‘Towns which send twenty-four rep- resentatives pay 50 per cent. of a tax laild by a total of two hundred and fifty-five representatives. This is {he old “Town of Union” argument ampli- field, and, with no further explana. tion, appears to be a pretty strong in- stance of taxation without adequate representation. However, the town in Connecticut i3 the unit, and such it will remain until the inhabitants there- of choose to relinquish this, their strongest hold upon the cities, some- thing which they will not be likely to do during’yet many more generations. MCULTON CASE WILL BE TRIED THIS MORNING. Witness Arrives Here from Brockton— Has Been Continued Several Times. The case against John P. Moulton, charged with fraud, will be tried in the city court this morning, according to the sta ement of Juige Brown when 1t was last continued, It has been con- tinued three times since he was ar- rested owing to the trouble in getting witnesses here, and Judge Brown an- nounced that it must be tried this morning. F. (. Sweet of Brockton arrived h:re on Thursday evening and is consid- ered an important witness. To go to Brockton to see him and secure some bonds was the pretext which it is claimed that Moulton used to get $500. from George W. Carroll. It is claim=d that Moulton did not go to Brockton and also that Mr. Sweet did not have the bonds which Moulton represented he was going to get and that they had been disposed of. The case promises to be decidedly interesting, as the accused has at pre- vious hearings shown 3 desire to enter into the trial personally, having ad- dressed the ocourt and spoken in 'his own behalf several times. Hetty Green and Publicity. ‘Mrs. Green belongs to that class of men and women who deliberately or stupidly, as the ocase may be, so con- duct themselves in public as to at- tract attention and provoke curiosity. The possessor of great wealth, she has so paraded the possession of it as to make both herself and her fortune “news.” At one moment she tells of her wealth and her achfévements. At another moment she ostentatiously takes up her abode In a cheap flat. Still again, she takes aprtments at a luxurious hotel in New York, gives lavish dinner sand dresses with the recklessness of the smartest. Later she returns to her old cheap quarters. In all particulars her acts have been melodramatic, and of those who are ipterested in her vagaries of rich old women or garrulously rich old men, and they are legion, seek further in- formation about them.

Basketball Team to Include Members Only—Directors Entertained. The regular -monthly meeting of Oren House was held Thursday even- ing in their rooms in the Thames TLoun and Trust company building, President Carey calling the meeting %o order shortly after § o'clock. There was a good sized attendance. After the minutes had been read by Secretary lHarry J Branche, the usual reports were made by Treasurer Grcsvencr Ely and IMnancial Secretary Everett 3. Byles. The latter reported eleven new names added during the past month. A committee of three was voted to assist him in collecting dues. ‘The svecial committea on The Gar- den Party was discha: with thanks after a report of the successful pro- @ucticn of this flay had been present- ed by the general chairman, Clarence Messinger, and the treasurer, Charl .

Megntion was made of a car rarty which is to be made up to go to ‘Westerly when the same play is given there in the middle of this month. A motion was gassed to .pave the card room closed during the time of the business meeting of the club. Ar- thur Broaks reported on the formation of a basketball team and received the sanction to play under the club name as long as the players were all mem bers of Open House. The meeting ad- journed about 9.30. Before the club meeting the board of éirectors held their regular sessiou, meeting at the home of the president, Tiev. Neilson Poe Carey, and being en- tertained at supper by him. UNIVERSALIST CHURCH SUPPER Roast Pig Served to a Large Number of Patrons. The ladies of the Universalist church furnished a timely attraction Thurs- day evening in the shape of an in- auguration supper with roast pig as the basis of the menu. The wéll cooked and well served viands on the bill of fare merited and received a large patronage requiring more than one setting of the supper tables. The central one of these was arranged in the form of a large letter T, and a pic- ture of President’ Taft, draped in the Amgrican flag, hung over the table. The decorations about the room were in the natlonal colors. The ecffective force in the kitchen was under the direction of Mrs. Tho as Potter, who was assisted by Charles H. Barnes, Ned Hill, Miss Mildred Comstock, Thomas Potter and Mrs. George D. Fillmore. The dining room was in charge of Miss Jessie E. HIill and Mrs. Lilllan Johnson, with Mrs. M. A. Barber, Mrs, S. W. Armstrong, Miss Dora Jenkins, Miss Alice Oat Miss Edith Washburn, Miss Lottie Ge- brath, Mrs, Frank Hall and Miss Ruth Henderson as waltresses. The School Machine. In announcing the winners of the prizes offered for essays written about Abraham Lincoln by puplls of the pub- lic schools, The Times say: “The compositions of younger children were so clear, fresh and orig- inal that in making the selections there was an embarrassment of riches Among the older ones, particuarly those above sixteen, there was a no- ticeablé commonplaceness and lack of originality. A stilted, pompous phrase was rare among the younger children, common among the older ones. Fresh- ness of thought and conception, clear thinking, were common among the younger, not common among the old- er.” One of the examiners notes that “by far the greatest mass of good com- posftions were written by children irom ten to twelve years old. . . . Perhaps it is because very [ittle boys and girls ars usually dlrect, straight- forward and unaffected in their speech.” ‘We agree with The Times that “this is a matter to which the school prin- cipalg might well give attention.” Something is wrong in the public teaching of English composition if in four years it turns the writers of orig- inal and forcefully phrased little es- says into pompous but bungling rhe- toricians, poor copyists of the style of cthers or mere “smart Alecks” of the pen. Business men who hire young clerks gomplain bitterly of this appar- ent deadening of the faculties of ob- servation, common sense and clear ex- pression, A huge machine such as a school system with 800,000 pupils must per- haps be mechanical to work at all. All the greater is the need of praventing formalism from moulding into a dead likeness the avid young minds which are at the outset so varied in their mental grasp and personality.—New York World. A Straightforward Statement. The reply of the New Haven road was made at the psychological mo- ment. Judging by the newspaper, com- ments the people of the state of Mas- sachusetts were just ready for it. They have been wondering where the activi- ties of some of their great men In of- fice were leaving them, They began to feel doubt as to where they were at and whither they were drifting. This letter, so straightforward in statement, so logical in argument, so concillatory in spirit, affords the. opportunity for good sense to begin to be operative again in Massachusetts, and there is a manifest desire that the opportunity be improved.—Waterbury American.

The New England Congregational congress Manchester, N, H, this week, must have been a warm affair. Judge Colt of New London spoke of Congregationalism democracy run mad. “We keep harping on local tonomy. *-- God's sake let us forget it. We must bring the local churches more together Into one body, and if this congress does nothing more than start such a movement it will have been a notable congress.” apeakars seemed to fee] the same way.
