The prayer of the New York Times for Mayor Gaynor: “May he be spared to realize, as he could not have done without this experience, how much ‘his people’ honor and cherish him,” is the prayer of all the people. The bullet which was designed to ki1l him disturbed the hearts of 90,- 000,000 people, and the news of his excellent condition is gratifying to the emtire nation. Even his assailant, Gallagher, hopes Mayor Gaynor will not die, and why shoudn’t he since his death would mean Gallagher's eventual electrocu- This act of the would-be assassin was prompted by the wrong interpre- tation of an act. Gallaghem regarded Mayor Gaynor his enemy betause he ad deprived him of his bread and butter, when really Gallagher had de- graded the service and was dis- charged for his own misconduct. Gallagher his own enemy and Mayor Gaynor's loyalty to public wel- fare required his discharge. Tt is not so much lunacy as hate which prompted Gallagher—hatred misapplied. He who harbors hate {s likely to do unwarranted violence. GROWTH OF OUR CITIES. The Connecticut cities have been srowing some for 10 vears. The new census figures are 102,054 population for Bridgeport, showing a gain of 31.058, or 43.7 per cent, ’since 1900, That 1s ome mere for the seaport tendencies of Americans. They want to get near the shores of the ocean to be In the swim when the American merchant marine starts up more com- merce. Hartford has gained 19,065, a percentage of 23.9, or little more than half the gro of Bridgeport. The Hartford of 98,915 is not so large as the city it has been calling small the past decade. But that increase for the Insurance city is larger thgn the average of American inland cities. There are hopes there of river con- nectfon with the sea to amount to something in commerce.—The Wor- cester Telegram. The citles which show most growth are those who have many small in- dustries—the cities who = have been ready to take hold of home inven- tiens, or any other product of genius and make the most of it. The city that invests its surplus wisely at home and gives home industry strict Dusiness survellance, are the cities that make the greatest growth. Nor- wich has been an attractive center for aliens for the past decade, so that it has a metropolitan variety of citizens, and its surplus of able-bod- jed men have gone to Hartford and Bridgeport and Waterbury. The Rose of New England has lost many good workmen and those attractive cities have been thereby benefited. It is sometimes as creditable to be 2 con- tributer of good things as a winner of them. THE DES MOINES PLAN. The citizens of Norwich at present have more than an ordinary interest in the Des Moines plan of commis- sion government and what is thought of it at its fountain head. The Des Moines Capital feels called upon to warn the people of the danger of their new plan. This is what it says: “There is danger that heads of de- partments under the commission form of government will get the idea that each §s supreme in his own depart- ment. There seems to be a growing disposition among the members of the city government in this city to claim that each man is supreme in his own department. The idea is erroneous, and if carried out would destroy the commission form of city government. In & meighboring city a commissioner, or a member of the council, which is the correct title, misapplied public funds. FHe had been entrusted with fumds for his department, and feit sutherized io use the same without inquiring of or reporting te, his as- sociates. These city councils must be called down by the people, and given to understand that the council, as a whole, censtitutes the city govern- ment. They must be made to under- stand that no important sction in any department can be taken without the consent of all. We haye discov- ered evidences in this city that the members of the council have an en- tire misunderstanding as to their own powers.” This is where the whole fault with mundeipal government lies. It is the individuality, honesty and se of the men slected that e-ums,“.»n coited asses, or incompetent officials, cammot give good government under eny charter. 3 THE PASSING VETERANS. ‘At the beginning of the present con- gress, serving on the union and con- federate sides were the following: Senate, Union—Bulkeley of Connec- ticut, Burrows of Michigan, Du Pont of Delaware, Nelson of Minnesota, Elkins 'gd Scott of West Virginia, Warner'of Missouri, and Warren of Wyoming, a total of 8. Confederate— Bacon of Georgia, Bankhead of Ala- bama, Daniel of Virginia, Johnson of Alabama, McEnery of lLouisiana, Mc- Laurin of Mississippi, Martin. of V] ginia, Money of Mississippi, and Tal- iaferro of TFlorida, a total of House of Representatives, . Union— Alexander of New York, Barclay Bingham and Graham of Penns: vania, Bradley of New York, Calder- head of Kansas, Capron of Rhode Island, Gardner of New Jersey, Hull of Tlowa, Morgan of Missouri and Wiley of New Jersey, a total of 15: Confederate—Estopinal of Louisiana, Gorden of Tennessee, Jones and Lamb of Virginia, Livingston of Georgia, Richardson of Alabama, Spight of Mississippi, Talbott of Maryland and Taylor of Alabama, a total of 9. This gives a total of 40 veterans of the war in the senate and house at the beginning of the present con- gress. Their number has lx}:en re- duced by three through the death of these notable confederate -veterans, Senators Daniel, McEnery and Me- Laurin. It will be seen from these figures that but 7 per cent. of the membership of the Sixty-first con- gress were veterans of the-civil war. Nearly half the membership of con- gr%!s 20, years ago were union and confedes veterans. In the con- gress at that time—the Fifty-first— there were 27 confederate veterans in the senate and 9 union veterans, while in the house there were 70 confed- erate veterans and 42 union veterans. Considerably over half the members from the southern states were con- federate veterans. Nearly half—or 44 per cent.—of the membership of the Fifty-first congress were veterans of the war. Men who entered the army in 1861-65, when in their teens, are now old men, many of them great-grandfathers. The average age of the veterans of the senate is 69 vears. The average age of the vet- erans of the house is 67 vears. Thus, the average age of these veteran statesmen, when the war began in 1861, was 19 years. It is clear enough that these men of valiant service. will soon s off the stage of activ Connecticut has now one veteran soldier in its congressional delegation,Senator Mo gan G. Bulkeley, a man beloved & all his comrades and.by the people; and there is a faction warring upon him for his removal—men who thought Gen. Hawley should go down in honor there, and there is no reason why Connecticut should not be just as apprecigtive of Senator Bulkeley. This tall® abbut leaving the matter to the people is all bu m. If it left to the people to say whether or not Senator Bulkeley will be returned there is no doubt as to their answer They have never yet put the m of disapproval mpon a veteran Sol- dier. - EDITORIAL NOTES. If Chicago is right the medicos who hang up cheap diplomas work up a rich business. Senator Gore appears to have joied the “I hain’t-said-nothing-but- will-never-do-so-again” club. The Boston Globe's $10.000 prize flight of machines next month will compel 48 states to take notice. The Boston scientist who says sau- erkraut is superior to beans is not courting popularity at the Hub. Out west they say the man who puts most brains into the land with his fertilizer takes most value out. Happy thought for to-day—There's more water in milk than appears on the surface, if the pump is handy. Strange that “hay fever about now" hagn't found its place in the Farmers’ Almanac. Daboll should take notice. Pinchot says: better to be a good citizen than a good republican.” A good republican is usually a good citizen. A hot foot bath for aged people every night is recommended by a doc- tor. A 'mighty good way to produce tender feet!

And Mr. Taft has a piece in The Congressional Record ev- ery now and then.—Boston Globe, e ‘William Turner was 18 years old and sensitive. He was slight of figute, pleasing to look upon and to talk with, but his trousers were turned up twice instead of once. When he came to live with his grand- mother the only people known to him in the town were his own relatives, but after the-manner of boys he was soon d with his neighbors. In the process of acquiring friends Billy had also acquired the nick-name of “Reg- ¢ reason of his failing in the igh-water trousers. Being this galled him, for he felt that he was less entitled to so humil- ting a nick-name than others with whom he associated, but the name stuck. It was “Reggie,” “Reggie,” all the time. FHow he hated its sound. Time was when Billy was bright and cheerful, but he soon became gloomy and sulien, and though his grand- mother often asked what the trouble was, the answer was as often oth- ing. To his sweetheart, Agnes, Billy fre- quently unbosomed himself. ‘Why do they have to call me ‘Reg- THE DIFFERENCE. quet the asuie: they only maeckyou fer e. Who can say what balm this was to Billy? As time went em, he avoided the “bunch” to escape the hateful nick- name. He used to take the long way home S0 as not to ses them, and the “bunch,” arriving at the conclusion that “Reggie” was getting stuck up, snubbed him unmereifully. One day, coming from work, Billy passed through a crowd watching the fire engine drill. Just then a little girl started across the street and ran di- raetly in front of the on-rushing steamer, became confused and stopped. It almost seemed as though she were under the horses’ great hoofs when a slender figure brokz through the stupe- fied crowd and raced across the street in the wake of the child. Billy, for it was he, barely managed to toss the little one aside when the heavy engine struck him down. He was picked up insensible and carried to a doctor's house near by. His injury was a.brok- en leg. Three weeks later, as Billy was re- turning from his first day's work since £y VAL AAAAAI L L L ) HOORRXXXN XN 2 ”"«.

And the answer came back cheerful- 1y, “Hello, fellows!”"—Boston Post. } Canker of Conceit. It is rather a remarkable illustra— tion of the weakness of our nature that there should be so many persons whose heads are completely turned by attaining even the slightest degree of success. Instead of realizing that theé | avhievement which won him fame is | a thing of the past, and therefore | buried in oblivion except to those nearest to him, the average man im- bibes a goodly portion of self-satis- faction and drinks to his own con- Hi cess looms very large upon I row vision, and the | ady ation of a fickle pub- | lic magnifies its proportions and ap- pears to him imp rce not really his due. This self-importance is apt to be reflected in all his fur- ther efforts, if indeed it does not_ for- | bid effort of any sort, and once a man becom ssed with an exaggerated idea of 1 ttainments there dupli | just h, | sons m the mis- | es by believing. that | Jlished a_record for no need to live up hide them awav in ! of their own minds to | for inspiration, their would _ giv a3 tion of their ability the dim p peeped at andi >ward helping them to ments.

One of the greatest questions dis- turbing the minds of physiologists both past and present, is that of the stomach’s digesting powers, says Sci- ence Siftings. It is asked why the stomach does not digest itself. It is well known that gastric juices have the power to digest the tissue of which the stomach 1s made. Omne of the actually manufactured by tne ecreted in the glands near the h and poured into it, it hydro- cholic acid, a powerful agent that will eat up almost anything. Why it does stoma ot eat the stomach up is problemat- al. It is known that a stomach from a_dead animal or man can be digest- living man. It has been found so that when a man is killed acci- dentally and his stomach is in the process of digesting, if the body be kept warm, his whole stomach will be digested and possibly, too, adjacent | orzans, as liver, pancreas, etc. Never Fattens Averages. said by the baseball critics that Larry Lajole is a victim of the “hit- d-ruh game.” So is James R.

No other med- icine we know of has such a record of cures of female ills as has Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. For more than 30 years it has been curing female complaints such as inflammation, uleeration, local weak- nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration, it is unequalled for carrying women safely through the period of change of life. It costs but little to try Lydia E.
