THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1899.
A West avenue family is said to aver-
age a new servant girl a week. Civil
service methods must be in vogue in
this house.
The senatorial fight is now on and
may the winner win.
The statement that ex-Captain Rose
is collecting valuable material for a
volume of his war record cannot be
verified. '
In scanning the published account.-
of the Lounsbury inaugural festivities
at Hartford. we failed to observe any
mention of candidate Morgan.
The senatorial fight is some days off,
but it is no great trick to induce men
who will have but little part in it to
express opinions as to its outcome.
The Bridgeport Union has made its
circulation statement and the Tele-
gram gives it a hoot.
No tcetotaler has ever been a great
singer. This is no excuse for the man
with a jag to think that he can sing.
It is feared that a great many good
resolutions have already been cracked.
The man who beat the bucketshop is
saying nothing, but he is sawing wood
just the same.
The lack of funds for cleaning the
crosswalks of snow, places the street
commissioner in a trying position.
The I-Iawxhurst charge against At-
torneys Hurlbutt & Gregory has every
appearance of proving a boomerang to
the instigation.
When the grip knocks out our post-
master it may truly be said to be inter-
fering with Uncle Sam’s “male.”

THE OTHER FELLOWS. '
All roads lead to Hartford from this
time until the last day of the session
of the general assembly. —Bridgeport
Telegram.
Some day all the trusts will be con-
solida:ed into one and then where will
all the rest of us be at. —- Stamford
Telegram.
“B. and S.” stands for Bryan and
Silver, also for brandy and soda. Both
are productive of big head.—Ansonia
Sentinel.
Bryan is to give three Jackson day
addresses this year. Two years ago he
did not dare attempt but one. Bryan
is growing—Toledo News.
They used to call the grip the Spanish
catarrh. The Spaniards lost their grip
last year, and the United States seems
to have appropriated it.—~New London
Day. .
A club has been formed .vhich pro-
poses to teach its members how to live
a century. But the wisdom of pro-
longing some lives to one hundred
years remains to be seriously question-
ed.~—New Haven Palladium.
A woman up in Middletown suffered
for six years from a pain in her nose,
and finally decided to see a doctor.
While on the way to his office she
sneezed and a pearl bead rolled from
her nostril. She should have sneezed
before—Anemia Sentinel.
Now we shall have the legislature on
our hands for the next four or five
months. It is hardest on the news-
papers. Legislative news is among the
things labled necessary but not impor-
tant.——Waterbury American.
Let us hope, for the dignity and hon-
or of the. nation, that there will be no
“kicking” in the senate over the
treaty of peace with Spain.—~Bridge-
port Post.
Whoever may be the candidates for
mayor next spring, it is safe to say
that the man who is elected will be
obliged to declare himself flatly as the
friend of order in the fire department
before election—Bridgeport Union.
The new chief executive of South
Norwalk, Mayor Coburn, is a physi-
cian. His immediate predecessor,
Mayor Bohannan, is also a physician.
The original name of that enterprising
little clam city was “ Old Well.” And
under the healthful administrations of
these disciples of Esculapius, it ought
to remain so. ——New Haven News.
Millions Given Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the pub-
lie to know that one concern in the
land who are not afraid to be generous
to the needy and sulfering. The pro-
prietors of Dr. King’s New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds,
have given a'way over ten million trial
bottles of this great medicine; and
have the satisfaction of knowing it has
absolutely cured thousands of hopeless
cases. Asthma, Bronchitis, Hoarse-
ness, and all diseases 'of‘the throat,
Chest and Lungs are surely cured by it.
Call on 'Druggist, John A. Riggs, 11
Main street, and get a free trial bottle.
Regular size 50c. and 81‘. Every bOttle
uarantecd, or price refunded.
AMUSEMENTS.

Gov. Grady, of. Alaska, contends
that that territory ought to have rep-
resentation in Congress, and he will
doubtless find a large body of citizens
in agreement with him. It would cer-
tainly be inconsistent and unjust to
deny the privilege of representation
to Alaska and at the same time grant
it to Hawaii or Porto Rico. All
American territories should be treat-
ed alike in this matter, but it is an
open question whether any of them
would be really benefitted by having
voteless representatives in Congress.
Alaska has been an American posses-
ion for thirty—one years, and has got
alongr all right without Congressional
representation. Now. however, the de-
velopment of its vast resources is at-
tracting a great inflow of immigration
and capital which are rapidly increas-
ing itsterritorial"importance. It is
a self evident proposition, therefore,
that we cannot justify or consistently *
bxtend the right of representation to
any of our new territories and yet
withhold it from Alaska.
Every old soldier who desefves a
pension should have one, and every
sondier’s widow who is entitled to a
pension under the law should have it,
but when all rthese are accounted for,
does it \.-see{rn possible that, without
gross dishonesty, more pensions could
have been granted in ”die last fiscal
year than at any time between 1869
and 1880, or that the list of pensions
now being paid, more than a genera-
tion after the close of the war, could
aggregate 1,040,356?
Thanks to persistent scientific ex
periments, the odorless onion is now a
reality. The subjugation of this per-
vasive vegetable and the elimination
of its distinguishing quality must be
reckoned among the proudest achieve?
ments of modern genius. The odor-
less onion is fully entitled .to recogni-
tion as a civilized institution.
WHAT SHALL WE DO
A serious and dangerous disease pre-
vails in this country, dangerous be-
cause so deceptive. It comes on so
slowly yet surely that it is often firmly
seat‘ed before we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may
be divided Into three distinct stages is,
First. Kidney trouble, indicated by
pain in the back. rheumatism, lumba-
go, frequent desire to urinate, often
with a burning sensation, the flow of
urine being copious or sent with
strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches
the Second stage, or Bladder trouble,
with heavy pain in the abdomen low
down between the navel and the water
passage. increasing desire to urinate,
with scalding sensation in passing,
small quantities being passed with dif-
ficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it
with instruments. If uric acid or gravel
has formed, it will prove dangerous if
neglected. .
The third stage is Bright’s-Disease.
- There is comfort in knowing that
Dr. Kilmer, the great kidney and blad-
der specialist. has discovered a Remedy
famous for its marvelous cures of the
most distressing cases and known as
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. ‘
It is sold by all dr‘uggist-s.
As a proof of the'wonderful virtues of
this great discovery, Swam -Root, a
sample. bottle and book of va uable in-
formation will be sent absolutely free
by mail on application .to Dr. Kilmer
