Huntington L. 1.. proposes to cell»
hrate an event not of ancient but of
contemporary history, Aug. 25. it is
an event, too, which people on this
side of the Sound will regard with all
the more interest, since a regular
cross-Sound ferry has been established
this summer. The event to be cele-
brated is, the conrpletlon of a cross-
island trolley system from Huntington
to‘Amityvllie on the south shore. For
obvious reasons. the enterprise is
both interesting and important to the
natives, and summer colonies as well,
around the shores of lluntlngton and
Oyster Bay, Cold Spring Harbor, etc.
And to the people of this section of
Connecticut in general it cannot but
be of some interest that at last there
is a route of public conveyance to be
available almost in a straight line
across Sound and Island to the borders
of the Atlantic ocean. It would make
an ideal summer day's outing from
these parts—this boat trip over the
Sound. and trolley journey through

’the park~like interior of rural Long
island to the ocean shore and return.
The celebration of the ‘25th itself
promises to In- a sight worth seeing.
There will be athletic games, eques-
trian parade, anti a water pageant in
which about all the pleasure craft har-
boring on the bays will take part, vy-
Ing with each other in the picturesque
quality of their decorations. The ‘itsum~
""v‘ p21 le‘ as well as the natives

Dr. Flint yesterday asserted that Thaw

was s'paranolac and incurable.

Mr. Momhauser examined the wit-
rncsn‘regarding the sanity proceedings

Thaw's lawyer asserts that Dr. Plint' s
testimony resulted in this woman's
discharge from "restraint although he.
‘ classed her as a psranoiac.
The listeners began to wonder what
" Mn Morschauser's put pose was when

said it contained alum. Dr. Flint
said he knew of the existence of this

plain that he was employed in 1900

. by the American Baking Powder Com-

in baiting powder.

CenmIShIItc Called for Today Has
Not Yet Become EIIecIive

STOCKHOLM, August 4.--The labor
conflict. in Sweden showa signs this
morning of becoming more acute, but
although the ranks of the strikers are
considerably swelled, the general
strike called for today has not yet be-
como entirely effective. The employee
on the street car lines and the cab
drivers stopped work this morning.

 

 

The troops are protecting the gas .

works and the electric lighting plant.
This step has incensed the wurkmon.
whose leaders threaten to call out all

the men unless the soldiers are with- ~

drawn. The pr'iuters' union held a
meeting this morning. but resolved to
postpone. for the present any decision
in the matter of going on strike.

A corps of workmen. some thous~
and strong, is being organized with
the object. of maintaining order and
the people generally are arming them-
selves for self protection. Tire gun
shops of the city am seriot ‘ly denuded
of revolver and small arms. All the
tourists have left Stockholm.

Although the railroad men have ill"
cied not to strike, the government In
guarding the tracks with troops, fear
Ing attempts to blow up bridges of III-
jure the permanent way. Quantities
of dynamite are reported to have ulys
tcriouls disappeared recently from tin
government Stores.

This afternoon guards were posted
in the market places and the ruiiruru
stations. All milk supplies have beer
cut off

Tire streets of Stockholm are filled
with wists who promenade bdek and

EXCURSION A SUCCESS.

 

Baptist and Mothcdlot Sunday School

I

Yesterday's combined excursion oi
the Sunday schools of the South Nor

was a line success and the 1,200 men.
women and children had a fine time
There were no accidents to mar the
day, though a few people were sea
sick when the steamer .lohn Sylvester.
on which they made their trip tc
Lighthouse Point. New Haven, was be
tween Bridgeport and that. place. Th.
east wind kicked up quite a little sea
but the roll of the boat in it was gen
tie and steady. and there was no oc
cusion for fear.

The trip was started from Souti
Norwalk, with arrival at the destlna
tion at about 12:15. The start home
was made about 4:30. Tire steanibos.‘
dock was reached on the return about
7:15.

The South Norwnlk party had tht
honor of being the first excursionlstt
to land at the new pier at Lighthouse
Point. The place Is a quiet one as
shore resorts of a public character
go, there. not being as many of the
usual type of amusements. but the
place is a beautiful one. Not a few
of the excursionists took additions1
trips to Savin Rock and New liaver

TIDES OF PUGET SOUND.

 

Reach 3 Height of 20 Feetébanger-
ouo Stretch of Water.

The waters of the Narrows, from
which a party of University of Puget.
Sound students escaped through good
Fortune after a boat was upset, are
treacherous. it is a place of terrible
tides.

Viewed from the precipitous shores
the surging waters are magnificent.
The scene has been compared with
;he Hudson above New York city.
The waters of that part. of Puget
Esound which extends to Olympic. Mud
Bay, Shelton and Henderson Bay, a
vast inland sen within itself, oil flow
:a and out of the Narrows.

in the upper reaches of the sound
some 25 or 30 miles from the Narrows
the tides attain a height of more than
20 feet. When the tides begin to fall
all the accumulated water rushes out
through the Narrows like It great
river at flood. in like manner when
the tide sets in the direction of Olyv‘
pin. the Narmwa become. a swift and
turbulent stream. Frightful wlrlrlpotflls
ire numerous. Streams running pow-
erfully in contrary directions strike
and the water boils.

Large steafnboats struck by the con-
trary currents groan and creek and
way under the strain. This being
i0 it is no wonder that small craft
aften overturn In the Narrows. A
whirlpool has been known to seize a
:owboat and twist it 'round and 'round
sum the rowers almost despair-ed of
coming out alive.

it is n marvelously beautiful water
with all its terrors and hundreds and
thousands will continue to find pleas-
rre there notwithstanding the summer
tragedies. The rumble of the tides
when runalng at full is like the dis-
tant rumble of theoooan. Tito ten
tors of the sea are unhelement of its
charm, and It Is with the terrors of
the Narrows.-—Tacoma Ledger.

achieve the desired end sufficiently
cleanly and safely. The setting of a

acquisition requires us much practice
as the setting of a cutting tool for the

considerable amount of vain labor and

on the presak subject, “The Care or
a Razor." This paper embodied the
results of continual. experiments and
study of the subject over a period of
some 20 years. As he had only his
own face upon which to test his the
cries, his experience has proved a val-
uable factor

The cutier from When) he purchased
his first rotor, upon inquiry as to
whether it should be dipped In hot
water before stropplng, replied in the
negative. Similarly y, one recommend
ed a rigid and another a flexible strop,
according to his own predilection;
while there was a similar divergence
of opinion as to‘ whether strapping
should be carried out before or after
use. The professor, however. tried
all methods in turn, and thus was
able to select that which Is undoubt~
edly the best. lie has found that the
flexible strop, hung at. one end of a

that oil tends to hardpn the surface of

it is also expedient that the strap sur-

WOOD WASTE DECREASING.

 

Manufacturers Gradually Learning the

Value of Forest Products.

The waste wood heap continues to
diminish and pass away.

A Massachusetts manufacturer of
bnishes recently made It discovery in
Maine which supplied him with mate»
rial exactly suited to his purpose. lie
went to the Pine Tree State to buy,
wood {or the backs of hair brushes and,
the handles of shaving brushes, and
chanced to Hall the yards of a spool:
maker who was using white birch.
The spool man took the white part of
the wood only, and was throwing away
the red hearts. Thousands of cards
had been burned or dumped in the
lake to be rid of It.

The red hearts were exactly what
the brush trinket wul: ltd and at Ilttle
more than the expense of freight be
supplied his factory.

This is typical of the trend of man-
ufacturing. Waste of wood Is still
great, but It is decreasing. What one
factory can not use, another turns to
profit. Formerly mills threw away
hall: the forest—tops left in the Woods.
sawdust dumped in streams to pollute
them and destroy fish, slabs burned in
perpetual bonfires, and defective logs
and low grade lumber abandoned as
not worth moving.

This policy does not generally pre-
vail now. Settle mills have put. in
machinery to work up their own by-
products. others sell their waste to
manufacturers who can use it, as in
the case cited in Maine. The proper-
ties‘and new of woods are now sub-
jects of careful investigation, and the
problem of turning to‘ account the odds
and ends and the b‘products is
brought more to the front now than
formerly.

The Unlted States Forest Service
has taken up this study in a compron
honsive and systematic 'way. Inves-
tigations of‘the woods of particular
states are being conducted, usually in
cooperation with the states concern-
ed. The plan, when frilly carried out.
will include every commercial wood
in the United states, not fewer than
200 species. The properties of each
will be investigated. Its hardness,
toughness, elasticity, durability.
weight, fuel value, also of tree, regions
where own, the common names by
which t Is known in dilerent locali
ties, and other matters of this kind
A history of the wood’s uses it the past
will be given, and an account or
out uses; together with summa-
for a wider m f uzetlnnm- in tip
