NINETEEN DAYS OF RAIN.

No Relief Promlud uiitii Thursday
Morning, When Moon Changes.
This has been the wettest June. in
thirty years. Such is the statement
given out at the weather bureau In
New Haven yesterday. The amount
of rain which has fallen is 6.38 inches,
which is over one inch more than fell
in ’79, the wettest month In the three
decades. Today Is the nineteenth
consecutive day of rain and at present
there seems to be no hope for a change
until Thursday morning.‘ when there is
a new moon. Weather prophets from
nearby towns are ptophecylng hll
sorts of things for us and some hold out.
the cheerful news that It is going to
rain for forty days and that as only
nineteen of the forty have passed‘al-
ready. it is fair to assume that the dust
will be laid during the remainder of
the time. it has done away with street
and lawn sprinkling however which is
some benefit. If the weather were only
a little warmer, the crops might take
advantage of the wet spell. hilt talus
cold that growth of many kinds of veg’e
tation ls retarded greatly. The res-
ervoirs are well filled, however, which
will preclude all possibility of a water

famine during the coming summer.

Those who suffer most are the keep-
ers of shore resorts which have been
practically dead this year owing to the
weather. Last season was a very hard
one for them. as it. was so cool most of
the summer. Many of the men who
have candy stands and bathing houses
and such attractions almost went broke
last year and the start this season has
been far from encouraging to them. ’

The summer resorts are suffering
also and boating is stopped for the
time. Brooks which were dry a
month ago have now become regular
torrents.

 

TRYING A NEW ELECTRIC LIGHT.

called the "Meridian.” and is of fifty.

it is one of the most economical lights
ever in use, and will take to run It only
the same amount of current used iii a
sixteen candle power light. It resem-

New Naturalization law
Goes Into Effect Now and

Heavy Penalties Are Pro-

vided for a Violation of
the Statutes __

Clerk William T, Havlland. of the
civil common pleas court. has received
a copy of the new United States stat-
ute' in regard to naturalization. The
amended law has for Its purpose the
denying of the right of franchise to
anarchists. .

Naturalization in this country ls
through the civil common pleas court.
An alien makes application while the
court Is In session and the clerk exam-
lncs him. if any case comes up in
which there is a doubt it is referred to
the judge, and there is no appeal from
his ruling.

Under the old law the clerk made
very careful inquiries about the time
the applicant had been In this country.
whether the applicant was of good
moral character and had ever been ar-
rested. The witness was also examin-
ed at length and had to explain In de-
tail his acquaintance with the appli-
cant.

Under the new lawthe clerk will be
required to make much more thorough
examination. He will ask the appli-
cant whether he has ever sfilliaied
with organizations oppned to organlz~
ed government and whether 'he favors
actions which would lead to the killing
of the officers of organised govern-
ment. together with a number of other
questions’whlch have for the investi-
gation into the opinions of the appli-
cant ln regard to law and order.

The punishment for any violation of
this statute. including the making of
a false oath. is very severe. The fine
may be $5,000, and the Imprisonment
ten years. or both.

In addition to all these Inquiries the
applicant and his witn'aas have both to
make aflldavlts in support 'of their
answers and these affidavits will have
to be on the naturallaation certificate.
together with the naturalization oath
renounclng and nbjurlng by name the
king. emperor or sovereignty to which
are happlicant's allegiance was due by

rt .

it is believed that the effect of this
law will ultimately increase the cost
of naturalization, The fee Is now 81.
But the certificate will cost considers-
bly more. especially with the affidavits.
and clerks in the United States courts
are paid by fees. It is thought that the
fee will be raised to 82.50. and If the
llnlted States courts go up the state
tribunals are likely to follow.

That these changes in the law will
tend to somewhat decrease naturaliza-
tion goes without saying. The new law
will not keep a desirable voter out but
it will tend to restrict the admission of
those elements which come from for-
sign countries and have no respect for
governmentV of any kind.

Pests. the young daughter of Alfred
Pests. the millionaire wall paper man
ufacturer. died this morning. at the cot-
tage of the ‘gardener employed on the
Pants estate: The girl was eight
years old and was an only child. Her
mother and the latter's sister. Miss
Pugh. who were burned about the arms
in their efforts to save the child, will
recover from their Injuries, though
both are preatrated by grief.

it was learned today that Miss Pugh
was In Genevlvle Peats' room when
the fire started. She thinks a lamp In
the room exploded. Both Mrs. Pests
and Miss Pugh were removed early to-
day to the gardener’s cottage, where
the child afterward died. Mr. Pests,
who has been suffering from mental
and physical infirmity for some months,
is now at the residence of Colonel Rob
art 8. Baker, 9. member of the staff of
the governor of Pennsylvania. He was
at the gardener's cottage for a time and
refused to leave there until compelled
to do so by his nurses.

The firemen say their efforts to- sub
due the flames were greatly hampered
by delay in sending in an alarm due to
the excitement of the servants about
the estate, and by the fact that the two
towers of the residence contained a
large q entity of ammunition. in each
of the t were, rooms were fitted up as
dens and a servant warned the firemen
that the dens contained about a thous-
and rounds of cartridges. Proof of
the assertion came when the towers
caught fire and a continuous series of
explosions ensued. The firemen say
they frequ'ently heard bullets whining
about their heads, and that any near
approach to the towers was dangerous.
