The State Business Men's Associu~
tion will hold its annual meeting in
Bridgeport. tomorrow. For that pur-
poseythe entire parlor floor of the At-
lantic hotel haabeen engaged. The as-
sociation will be called to order at 10
o'clock. in tbe forenoon. and the ch~
coming‘adiltess for the. city will be de-
livered by the mayor.
Jlldge beers will give a formal ad-
dress and there. will also been address
by President Whiting. While the mem-
bers are assembling. lunch will be
served. There will be a business ses-
sion from noon until 2:30 p. m.. to be
followed by an elaborate banquet. The
banqueting ball will be handsomely
decorated with flowers and an orches-
tra will discourse music during the
banquet.
There will be delegates present from
New Haven. Hartford, Mertden. New
London. Waterbury. Ansonis. Derby.
Shelton. Seymour. New Britain. Nor-
waik. Bristol. 'l‘orrington, Manchester
and Endeld.
Among the business that will come
before. the association will be the
amendment to the present itinerant
vendors' act. to be offered by the.
Bridgeport association. Under the
present law an itlhcrant vendor. com-
ing into the state to sell goods. must.
additional to the license he. is re-
quired to take out. deposit $500 in
cash with the secretary of state. who
keeps it for a time to see that the
vendor carries out his business in ac.-
cordance with the provisions of his
licensc. it is later returned to the
vender. .
it was of this law that one of thcl
judges of the Superior Court said. dur- a
ing the trial of Sampson. who was
prosecuted by the Business Men's As-
sociation after he had leased Eltins's
business here: “The law is so defec- ‘
tlve that you can drive ahor’se and
cart through it." It has operated
greatly to the detriment of merchants,
it is claimed. through the state. in
Hartford a party came in just before
Christmas with a stock of goods and
stilti them out and cleared 315.000. and
left without the money doing the
slightest good in that city.
it was in 1809 that the original not
was passed. but when this was tried it
ago. in 1001. at the meeting of the
State Business Men's ABSOCIIINOH, it
was decided 'to draw a new bill and
present it to the legislature. This was
done by Joseph harbour and Carl Fos-
ter. and. after the bill had been out
and changed over. it was again adopt-
ed by the legislature in its present
form. '
The case of Sampson of Bridgeport.
was the first that was tried under the
new law. and in that trial it was found
that it is a matter of great difficulty
‘to frames law of this kind that shall
effectually reach the class of vendors
it is desired to reach, bemoan it is
’hard to tell what a man may have in
mind. if. as ill Sampson's case. he
comes to town. and gives out that he
intends to reside permanently in the
.place. and his advertising and sur-
roundings appear to indicate the truth
of that claim. he cannot be reached
under the present itinerant venders'
act. ,
There are often found. say those
interested in the proposed amendment
of the act. men who have made a close
study of ways of evading the itinerant
acts of the various states. .and it is
very hard to convict such people.
It is this problem that Attorney Carl
Foster now has to struggle with in
training an amendment to the not to
cover such cases. and. at the same
time. to do an injustice to those who
intend to locate » permanently in a
town. Just what form that amendment
will take. Mr. Foster is unable to say.
'as he has not yet prepared it.
New officers will also be elected at

erbury. president; Dwight N. Hewes. of

We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living, about
vegetarianism and many other fads
along the same line. .
. Restaurants may be found in the
larger cities where nomaat. pastry or
00 ee iI’IGMd and the ded't'l'lmk is
in his glory. and arguments and theor-
ies galore advanced to prove that meat,
:was never intends ifor autumn stoma
mm. and almost in he us believe that
our no i ancestors. who lived four
scare you s In robust health. on roast
beef. pork and mutton must have.
been grossly ignorant of the. laws of
health.
Our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome. was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense. are excellent guides to follow
‘lu matters of diet. and a mixed diet of
grains. fruits and meals is undoubted
ly the best.
As compared with grains and vege-
tables. msnt furnishes the. most nutri-
ment in a highly concentrated form
and Is digested and is assimilated
more quickly than vegetables and.
grains. -
Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject
says: "Nervous persons. people run
down in health and of low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of it. it
me digestion is too feeble at first it
may be easily corrected by the regu-
lar use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal. .Two of these ex-
cellent tablets taken after dinner will
digest several thousand grains of
most. one or other animal food in
three hours, and no matter how weak
the stomach may be. ‘no trouble will
be experienced it a regular practice is
made of using Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tnb~
lets because they supply the pepsin
and diastasc necessary to perfect di-
gestion, and every form of indigestion
will be overcome by their use.
That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspeptlrs
should eat plenty of meat and insure
its proper digestion by the daily use. of
a safe. harmless. digestive .medicinc
like Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets com-
posed of the natural digestive princi-
ples. pepsin. diastase. fruit acids and
salts. which actually perform the work
of digestion. Cheap cathartic medi-
cines. masquerading under the name
of dyspepsia cures are useless for in-
digestion as they have. absolutely no
effect upon the actual digestion of
food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is
simply a failure of the stomach to di-
gest food and the sensible way to solve
the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is
to make daily use at meal time of a
preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. which is endorsed by the
medical profession and known to con-
tain active digestice. principles. I;

Expected That Senatorial issue Will
Be Settled Today.
DENVER. Colo.. Jan. 2l.—-The most
important development in the dead-
lock in the senatorial situation this
morning was the announcement that
committees had been appointed byythe
Republican and Democratic senators
as well as the house to meet together
at 10 o'clock and deavor to meet
some understanding but will clear the
situation and enable the legislature to
come together on joint session for the
purpose of balloting for a United
States senator'to succeed Henry M.
Teller. The hour for such joint ses-
sion being noon today and the fact
that it was understood that the. house
would refuse to meet in joint session
unless the senate had reached a set-
tlement of its dispute over the question
of which persons were entitled to seats
by that time made it necessary that
something he done and the conference
at 10 o‘clock today was arranged for.
Another fruitful influence was the re-
port. which seemed well founded, that
Governor Peabody-had notified Lieu-
tenant Governor Ha‘ggott. who has pre-
sided over the Republicanissnstee. that
he would not recognise that body nor
issue a certificate of election to a sens.
tor elected by it. '
The house and Republican senate
remained in session-until 10 o’clock
last night. when they adjourned until
10 o'clock this morning: Thedatter
body met in the room of the Maiden-
ant Governor. The Democratic sen-
ate. retained passesionof the Senate
chamber where they remained all
night after giving out the announce-
ment that they wouldnot leave the
chamber until a senator was abated or
thesession expired by limitation. A
wiser of bills was introduced in this

The second Sunday evening of Juan—
ary was devoted to the reception ten-
dered by the rector. the choir. and con-
gregation. to themembers of the fire
departments of South Norwalk. East
Norwalk and Rowayton districts. and
to their guests the mayor and City
Council of South Norwalk. The sub-
ject of the address on the occasion was
“The Chief Feature of a Fireman's Ef-
ficiency-Humanity. Vigilance and Val-
or." These qualities. that characterize
our fire brigades. and win for our pub-
lic protectors the admiration and grat-
itude of the entire community. were.
applied also by the speaker to‘ the
broader field of moral and spiritual
safeguard. by virtue of which fighters
of the fire fiend may become likewise
the championsof civic integrity and
the advocates of Christian rectltude.
Dr. Maher prises very highly the su-
perb expression of thanks presented to
him by Chief Harford and his brother
officers of the are department.
ustfijilndsy was ‘fHoly Name Spele-
t'y‘sundny." as it was also the feast on
the Catholic calendar 'of the “Holy
Name of Jesus."
The members ‘of the society received
Holy Communion in a body at the ear-
ly'mass. They presented a fine appear-
ance as they marched from the. base-
ment. wearing their handsome barges.
and died into the centre aisle «the
church to occupy the seats on both
sides of the aisle. for about half its
entire length. At the regular-month-
ly meeting‘af. 7:60 p. m.. many new

ard. and what it nets in profit or loss
toall concerned, was also vividly por-
trayed by the rector to the large corps
