The 250th Anniversary Jubllee book o be printed by The Bulletin will be illustrated much more extensively than the Jubilee book of 1359 and be in every way as desirable a book to own. The facilities for making such a memorial volume are greater now than they were §0 years ago, and at the same cost & very much superior volume can be produced. The 250th Jublles book will have reports of the full programme and reports of the ser- mons and addresses with such other matter as may be of Interest. There will be & serles of old pictures of Norwich which will really make this the most valuable book ever printed about Norwich, with the exception of Miss Perking' “Antfent Homes of Old Norwich,” which is one of the most interesttng and readable local histories ever tssued in New England. Bubscrtbers for the book should designate upon the eoupon which may be clipped from the advertisement how many books they should like, and the style of binding. The old Jubiles Dbooks of 1869 were in quick: demand and at $5 & volume, and this book fifty years from now is likely to be equally ‘vatuable. We intend to print the names of officers of ctvic socleties and military compantes and to make fuller certain dstalls of the parade. Those citisens wanting coples will please send in their names &8 prompt- 1y as posstble. AN AMUSING ERROR. The state press has been led astray with reference. to parade and political | matters in Norwich, and the feud which they declare has resulted be- tween ex-Mayor Thayer and President ‘Willlams of the orsanization of citi- gens for the conduct of our 250th an- miversary celebration. Mayor Thayer resigned the presiden- cy and gave his entire attention to his pvete business, when he was suc- ceeded by Mapor Lippitt. He has tak- en & private citizen's interest in the matter, and that is all. He has not, to The Bulletin's knowledge, had any- thing whatever of an official character to do with it, has been mneither a critic nor complainant, but has been @bsorbed by the exacting duties of his profession. He muet be indulging in Tather a broad smile at the connection of his name with the affair and the absurd allegations of the press about bim. The fact ts, the political feud sensa- wion has no real basls in Yact. Nor- wioh was never more united In & pub- Ao celebration than in the one just pass- ©d. There were little jealoustes and differences of opinfon, but they in no way Interfered with the success of the celebration or left any bitterness politieal or goclal, which The Bulletin | 15 aware of. There s no reason why disagreeable things should be remembered, for the pleasurable events of our three days' celebration ere worth keeping in mind for the next half century. THE SHIPBUILDING OF 1908 The shipbuilding done in this coun- try is not of & character to give us back our old standing as a nation with a merchant marine. The Civil war put us down and out, and congress Beems loath to extend the helping hand which 18 necessary to restore this important factor in international trade. | The Toledo Blade is correct when it says: “If the work of the lake plants were not considered, the shipbullding industry of the United States would bardly be worth reckoning in the world's production. The American industry on the seaboard continues to decay. Congress continues steadfast- ly to refuse that atd which it gives 10 every other trade and manufacture, from broadeloth to hair brushes.” “Of the 1,362 vessels bullt in the United States in the year ending with June 20, the yards of the Great lakes,” says The Biade, “turned out thirty- x. Yet these steamers constitute wbout two-fifths of the entire tonnage constructed. So the remaining 1,326 merchant craft must consist mostly of fishing boats and the smallest of coasters. “The latest returns at Lloyd's show that of the tonnage launched in the world in 1908 the United Kingdom pro- duced more than fifty per cent. Of vessels of over 3,000 tons, exclusive of those on the Great Lakes, the British __ shipyards turned out more than 63 per cent. Furthermore, of all the tonnage oonstructed a little more than 30 per « cent. now Uy the English flag.” NOT AT ALL SENSITIVE. The N rt News has made a take in thinking that The Bulletin has taken any serious part in “the Nutmeg state” controversy. The News says: “We fear that the governor and The Bulletin are taking the matter too seriously. 1f we of Massachusetts got sensitive every time the New York Sun, for instance, jibed at us about the ‘sacred codfish,’ or the ‘gory host, the ent and Honorable Artillery, we uld be in hot water most of the time. It is not to be supposed for a moment that anybody imagines that people down in Connecticut now man- ufacture wooden nutmegs, and the most sensible thing which the people of the state can do is to turn off with & laugh all this sort of allusion of which they complain. Perhaps they | can't quite see the humor of such rib- | aldry, but other people will be apt to think that they attach altogether too sérious importance to i .

THE PORTO / Of the 100 American teachers | from Porto Rico who have just arrived in the United States, many de- cided not to return. “Not only we ‘cut’ soctally by the better class of natives, but even the poorer class look down on us,” said one of the teachers. *There is an anti-American spirit pre- valling in the eastern part of the island which makes life miserable for the American teacher there. Then, too, one gets tired of rice and beans and beans and rice every day of the year.” Evidently, Porto Rico isn't entirely Americanized as yet.—Meriden Jour- nal. ‘This makes Porto Rico appear to be Uncle Sam's naughty little child, and it no better reports come from there he will have to be spanked. The octal cut” is of small account; but the “rice and beans and beans and rice” is too plain a fare for beef- ecaters, and thjs is a sufficlent excuse for desiring to remain at home. The Porto Ricans are disgruntled and in making it hard for this government they are simply making life harder for themselves. They will behave after the riot act has been read to them once or twice. AMERICAN PENSIONERS ABROAD The report of the pension commls- sioner shows that a half-century after the close of the civil war that_there are over five thousand old soldiers pensioned abroad. According to the official figures for 1908, 370 pension were living in England, 461 in Ire- land, ninety-two in Scotland and nine- teen in Wales, a total of 942 for the g AR I Rl T T, Bhesh? 02 Y Ol 0 poonmore %chn(tlu merrily.

The American veteran, or his widow, get the pension wherever they may be. It is not a large pension in one sense, and yet it s the most liberal award made by any nation; and the forelgn payment must approach $100,000 an- nually. EDITORIAL NOTES. Bar Harbor shuts out the automo- bile, and Nantucket will, if it is possi- ble. When Mr. Roosevelt saw apple ple come on at a banquet in Africa, he must have just shouted “Bully!” Happy thought for today: Never nurse a grudge, for it's always & mon- grel and not worth bringing up. The greased pig has got out of our great American festival, and for that he is grateful, if the public is not. The airship is certainly a very in- teresting vehicle when it goes motor- ing by & few hundred feet above us. The biggest flag Is owned in Pitts- burg and measures 90 by 180 feet. That would cover a handsome cottage lot. Poston's boot and shoe output ex- cecded a hundred millions last year. That is a nifty trade even for the “Hub.” . If the debaters of the tarift. can be elieved there is a great deal more in it than the everyday citizen ever pected. A California judge has ordered five millionaires put in jall for contempt of court. That ought to cool thelr indiscretion.

If the day should come when canned noises can be bought for the Fourth, the judicious releasing of them might prove satisfactory. s Great Britain puts out seventy-five millions a year for the maintenance of its paupers; and they are increasing in numbers all the time. John Bull must notice that we do not feel afraid of him, never mind how boards, six inches wide for every rod), around a farm of 160 acres, with two cross fences, dividing it into four lots, together with a dooryard fence, could be built, and then have left thirty- seven cords of wood. Formerly the grove could only be reached by horseback. On one occa- sion we circled the large tree and it took seventeen horses, standing close to the tree, head to tall, to surround the tree. In the forest the tree. has no follage, except at the very top, and most of the trees are broken off at the top by the severe winter gales, but in the open ground it has a conical shape. 1 planted a scedling in my lawn and after thirty-five years had to emt it down. It was seventy feet in height and a perfect cone in shape, and was four feet in diameter at the ground. The rings In the fiber correspond to the number of years of its growth, It would be a great shame if those groves were not saved by the government, as there are only two or three Jeft. The Sequoia Sempervirens, or the redwood groves, are found only in the counties of Santa Cruz, Santa Mate Marin, Sonoma and Mendocino, e: tending along the Pacific about 250 miles. " A small reservation of the trees has been made In Santa Cruz and Mar- in countles. They are not as large as the Gigantea. They are from eight to sixteen feet in diameter and from 800 to 350 feet high. They form one of the largest sources of lumber in California. The North Western rallway plerces these redwoods at many points. Several years ago a party from Bos- ton visiting San Francisco were de- sirous of visiting the redwoods, and the railroad people sent a special train carrying them to the camp. The party .consisted of about fifty gentlemen and ladies. A luncheon was sent up In a vance and one of the largest trees wi ordered cut o as to be thrown down at their visitation. I was asked to go up with the company and show them the grounds. After lunch we walked down toward the trees that was being sawed off. A scaffold was built about six feet above the ground as the diam- eter of the tree was much less at thi point than at the ground. Four men, two at either end of the saw, were cutting the tree down and drove their wedges in the cut behind the saw. One of the men suggested that they mark down the height of the tree and the diameter and see how near they would come to guessing thegdistance. After marking they read their estimates, which ran from a diameter of three feet to seven feet and a height of from 75 to 150 feet. They demanded that I should guess, too, but I told tnem tnat it was no guesswork for me, that I knew pretty nearly the height and diameter of the tree. Well, they said, mark it down; so I said twelve feet in diameter and 325 feet high. We walk- ed down to the tree and I said to one of the men: “What s the length of your saw?” He said: “Fourteen feet, si They sald they could throw the tree in any direction by driving wedges behind the saw. We indicated the po- sition in which it was to fall and they threw it there accordingly. When it was cut off it was twelve feet four inches in diameter and the length was 327 feet beside the elght feet of stump. It took a ladder quite sixteen feet high to reach the top of the log of the tree, lishments number 17,130, value? at $162,068,437. There are 75,779 horses and mules In the state, worth $4,489,189, and the total value of wagons, automobiles and bicycles is given 4,908,560, Of neat cattle there are 149,283 head, worth $3,313,036. The town euthori-- ties returned lists of taxable property of an aggregate value of $770,699,592, but the poard of equalization increas- ed the valuation by 151,472,000 for purposes of taxation. — Middletown Sun. What Organized Labor Stands For. John Mitchell's address, in Norwich, was that of a labor leader who placed the dutles of the union rather higher than such leaders are generally prone to do. We quote from the news gol- umns of the Norwich Bulletin: “Vice- | President Mitchell referred to the martyrs who had brougit tb t‘he" cause the blessings of God, and brought it out that organized labor | stood for more than higher wages | and shorter hours, viz: Higher citi- zenship, better jhood, noble wom- anhood and the defense of the help- less child.—Ansonia Sentinel. PERSONS TALKED ABOUT Miss Lottie F. Smith, a 1s~yam§old L irl, in 11 years has never been hacnt tardy or dismissed from | school. Miss Winifred Gibbs is the author of a little book, “The Feeding of the Family,” which has been issued by the association for improving the condi- tion of the poor of New York. Miss Florence Loeber, a lawyer of ! Louisiana, was one of the speakers at the recent meeting of the Louisianaj State Bar assoclation when the prop- erty rights of married women were under consideration.

She has been connected with the museum for years and is the first guide to be regu- larly appointed by the directors. With the commencement of the col- lege year at the University of Wash- ington Miss Isabella Austin, former supervisor of the primary department of the Tacoma public schools, has been appointed to take office as dean of women. Ex-Ambassador Joseph H. Choate is a strong believer in the knee as a de- vice for disciplining a waywand young- ster. “I believe that a good man's knee has been the turning point in many a man’'s life,” he sald in an ad- dress at the Berkshire jndustrial farm recently. ‘Whitelaw Reld, the American am- bassador, is living in Dorchester House, Park Lane, in a style which is only befitting to the American ambas- sador at the Court of St. James', but it is costing him $150,000 a year at least, toward which a salary of $17,500 does not help much. Mme, Margaret J. Benedictsson, ed- itor of The Freyja, an Icelandic month- ly magazine, has' organized four suf- frage clubs in Iceland in the last 12 months. She has lectured on the sub- ject of equal suffrage in variotis places throughout the country and expects to more than double the present num- ber of clubs within the next few months.

Norwich is too far along to ever be a boom town; but there {s nothing under the sun to hinder a loyal son from booming “the Rose of New Eng- land.” The icebergs are lingering on the Grand banks later than usual this year.

Mr. Editor:—Congress passed a bill for the purchase of the Big Trees, situated in Calaveras coun- ty, near the Yosemite Park. The act meets with the general approbation of all lovers of mountain scemery. The Big Trees of California are an unceas- ing topic of interest, like the Falls of Niagara, and their grandeur cannot be has at last a pity that the government does mot preserve some large tract of these in- teresting redwoods.

Y. and Norwich, Conn., were success- ful, and the presence of President Taft added greatly to the interest of each. As a traveler the, president has @ reputation which he 'keeps up re- makably. He enters happlly into the spirit of whatever celebration he takes part In and his speeches are of an admirable character—Bridgeport Standard. « Connecticut Not Poor. Connecticut is not a poor state. Tax Commissioner Corbin has so proved. He finds the total value of property in Connecticut to be $922,071,502. The 168547 dwelling houses are worth $405,087,544, an average of $2,403. The land area is 2,717,718, valued at $91,- 280,930, or an average of $33 an acre. Mercantile and manufacturing estab- Ariz, has had his heir cut.

According to Professor Starr of the University of Chicago, womap remains “the eternal savage.” It is ¥mpossible to civilize her because “the fundamen- tal nature of woman is barbaric.” Her fondness for deception, her love of finery, her very superstitions mark her as a “primitive,” a being no further advanced than her sister of the jungle. “She thinks the old thoughts, feels the old emotions, is moved by the old im- pulses, she dresses in the old gewgaws, she s’ thrilled by the world-old hopes and fears.” And it is on her possession of these - characteristics, says Dr. Starr, that the continuance of the rage depends. This is, perhaps, the st tribute ever paid to women. They are shown to be, nature's sole product thajy has re- sisted the processes of evolution.

A Denton man is foreing a gobbler to do the “settin'” by keeping him drunk on corn soaked in licker.

Not Nervous. “Ha!” they exclaimed, “you are ner- vous.” The accused party bristled. “Why do you say that?” he inquired. “Because you continually twiddle your fingers and keep moving your feet up and down. That means ner vousness.” ‘“Nonsense,” retorted the accused party, “I can stop {t—if I try.’ And he wondered why they laughed. Cats as Art Models. ‘The strange inscrutability of the eat in her calmer moods, her thousand and one humors and motions and ex- pressions—differing always, to careful observation, from the thousand and one humors, etc., of other cats—have defled the painter or broken his heart, ~—London Daily Graphie.
