Sena tor Thomas C. Pia tt , on account of the malodorous scandals tainting his reputa tion in con- nection with his recent separation fro m his wife and other affa i rs and on ac- count of his utter imbecility and unfit- ness for the du ties of the office , would in the case of any man wi th a less thick skin , have been followed by his resi gna tion at once. His term of office does not exp ire un til March 4, 1909, and the idea of having the great state of New York , the emp ire state of ilie Union , wi th a seventh of the entire- taxable wealth of the nation and a tenth of its population , unrepresen t ed in the upper branch of the national leg islature all that time seems well ni gh intolerable. Such an experience as we have had for the past four years with two nonen- ti ties representing or pretending to represent this state.a t Washington should give qui te an impetus to the cause of the election of sena tors by direct popular vote. The result of Addicks ' manipulations in Delaware, Clark ' s in Montana , Al- (fn' cfi ' s in Kfiode Island and the scandals connected with the elections of senators by state leg islatures all over the Union are irresistibl y pushing forward' the cause of the election of United States sena tors by a direc t vote 'f the mass of electors. It is easier to brib e or buy* up a state leg islature than it is all the peop le of the sta te and it is hi g h tune that we did away with the oli garchical ring of millionaires that is '¦w in control of the United States Senator. ¦ ¦ a •• *- om U.

Governor-elect Charles LC. Hug hes in an address , delivered at a reception given him b y the Republican club of New York city a t the Waldorf-Astoria hist Friday ni ght , more than ever con- firmed the high- op inion held of him b y pa triotic citizens all over the land. He told his auditors that be was not one of those who , alarmed at disconten t as such , and sa tisfied with their lot in life , referring partl y, of course, to the for- tu nate ones grouped about him , viewed wi th illconcealed impatience anrl dis- gust e lTorts at improvement. He says we may be more trul y alarmed at seem- ing indifference. He stated trul y, in his own words , that the peop le were no t fools and thi.y would recognize ea rn est , sincere leaders trying to give them a square deal and fair play ali around. How such words as the fol- lowing mus t have sounded in the ears of some of those presen t at the gathering: The people expect and are en titled to have the governmen t administered for their benefit. They will not tol- er ate leadership which serves self-inter- est or connives at the sacrifice of the public welfare to priva te advantage. They insist upon disin terested and in- telli gent service in every department. In all elTorts to promote the success of the Republican part}' let it be remem- bered that public service is the best politics. I t is a short-si ghted policy which would regard offices as strong- holds , by the possession of which throug h clever tactics popular assault may be resisted. Mr. Hu ghes , said that they should rather be regarded as oppor tuniti es t o win the public confidence throug h the efficien t performance of duty. How very few of the hi g h public officials ol the state of New York for the past few years have taken this view ot public oi- ficc. Concerning the wrongs committed by the corporations of the state , personal comfort and convenience or personal interests must not stand in the way, dealing thoroug l y. fearlessly with - them , is the sentiment of our governor-elect. Mr. Hu ghes paid a fine and just tribute to the independents and ne says we may coun t upon their support again if we estab tiish by our deeds the sin- ceri ty of our words. For many of our fellow-citizens par t y lines have bu t small si gnificance. Th ey are anxious for results , and care bu t little for the banner under which they are . achieved. They are not mov ed by partisan appeal , but they are prepared to indorse and support an ad- minis tration of proved integri ty and capacity. We should no t proceed upon the assumption that we have imp lacable enemies, but rather in the b elief that |W m eeting the obvious and reasonable demands of th e peop le we may grea tl y enlarge our supp ort. The above are the words, no t only of a shr ewd political) , out of a pafiiut of th e hi g hes t order. The gov ernor-elect said that this is ii olime ior rmes.se: I t is a time for candor and dneet dealing.

I n the .same parallel of la ti- tude in Italy, oranges and lemons are grown , in California on the same paral- lel roses are grown in the open air all the year round: The isothermal line takes a long sweep to the northward as i t crosses the Atlantic , and on the European coas t , where the tempera- ture is modi fied by the G11I/ strea m, roses are grown in the open air in the winter in Dorset , Devon and Somerset coun ties and as far east as Norfolk and Suffolk. The climate of Long Island is un- doubtedl y affected largel y by i ts prox- imi ty to the ocean and it is one of the best all the year round clima tes in the coun try. California climate, former Long Island residen ts now living in that state tell us , is not nearl y as agree- able. Many of the existing catarrhal , bron- chial and pulmonary troubles are the resul t of a lack of fresh air. Sleep with your window wide open all ni ght; have offices or factories and dwellings thor- orougbl y ven tilated by day and let in an abundance of sunli gh t. Get out of doors as of ten and for as long a time as possible at all seasons of the year and mos t of the ills above named that afflic t mankind would disappear. The Creat or made enoug h fresh air to go all the way around and has made us with lungs , throat and skin demandin g plen ty of this free air and sunli ght to keep them in healthful eondition. The criticism by the Amityville Record of the Hun tingto n and' Baby- lon town boards in granting a perpet- ual franchise to the Huntington Rail- road company wi thout exacting any annual ren tal is entirel y uncalled for. In the firs t place the town and state always have con trol over franchises in the matter of taxation , and should the franchise become valuable the asses- sors would no t be iong in nnaing it out In the second ' place the. company would not build the road were any onerous condi tions imposed as to rent or as to the running of cars. Both the Huntington and Baby lon town boards exacted conditions insur- ing modera te rates of fare between the villages and this will be a more sub- stan tial benefit to the residents of the town ' than any reasonable amount of tax could be. This is also one of the condi tions most sought after by t he peop le of both towns. . As to which side of the hi g hway the rails shall be laid , that is provided for. The s tatement that the Nassau supervisors showed more wisdom in making up the terms of their franchise is open to question. They ask a rental a t the end of fifty years. That is more than the lifetime of a generation and radical changes are likely to take place in that time that may render all the presen t trolley lines useless. History teaches us that we may look for won- derful changes in half a century Moreover the franchise tax is fully as productive a source of revenue. The peop le of . Huntington felt as did the town board of Haby lou that the new trolley line will call for a large ou tlay of cap ital and for many years i t will n.it begin to pay the cost of opera tion and interest on the invest- ment. We know that no ot '-cr com- pany than the L. I. R. K. could or would b.iil'l the line and we know what i t will do in the way of building up all .ilon" the Hi"" of (he route and the building up of the villages of Hunt- ington, Farming dale, Amityville and Daby lon. We kn ow what an immense benefit it has been to Huntington. In view of these (acts and tha t for a laruc portion of the distance the road go es over a private ri ght of way the hi g hway commissioners of the two towns acted wisely in g iving the rail- road men every encouragement pos- sible, Huntington village , larg e, nourishing and pro gressive, has one timel y lesson ,„ lea.u from llicknville , the most thoroug hly awake hamlet in our sister county ol Nassau. lHeksville has fine el ectric street lig hts , a cl everly ma- eadan.iz ed main street, and curbed side- wilks , which find their counterpar t in llllULillK tOII.

Uaeil by Grecian Generals In the Time of Arifftofl c. Telegraphy as a means of conveying information to a distance by means of signals, etc., was used by the Grecian generals In the time of Aristotle. This early mode of telegraphing consisted of two or more earthen vessels, ex- act ly similar to shape and size and fill- ed with water. These vessels were each provided with faucets of exactly the same caliber , so t hat an equal amount of water could bo discharged from each In a gi ven time. In these vessels several uprights were fixed , each with ,d isks attached, on which were certain , letters and sen- tences. When all was in readiness the parly desiring to communicate wit h another started a signal , which ¦was continued until it was answered by another which signified " go ahead. " When that signal was given both turn- ed the faucets, and t he water com- menced to esca pe. Tho water contin- ue d to How until the sender of the messa ge relighted his torch , when the out let to both was instantly stopped, Tho receiver t hen read tho message on the disk which was standing level with tho water , and I f every thing had been executed with exnetnoss-it correspond- ed with tho message which tho sender desired to convey, and which of course ¦was tho 011 0 also shown on tho disk stand ing on n level with tho water in his vessel . A. local paper In Hungary published nn account of tho renderin g of "King Lear " on U10 sta go of a very small theater in tho town where tho paper appears. Tho Hun garian critic began his inilclo in (his way: "Tho historians, of literature aro still at da ggers drawn as to who wrote Shakespeare' s pieces— Sha kespeare or Bacon. After tonight's performance of 'King Lear ' Uioro can-, not bo a doubt on the matter if any one will take tho troublo to look into tho tombs of those two famous men.

(SPIDERS OF CEYLON. Their Golden Web. 1 Will Enr mnre ltlrtfM nml Ij.zuimIn. Far up in the mountains of Ceylon there is a spi der that spins a web like brigh t yellowish silk , the central not of which is five feet in diameter , while t he supporting Hues or guys, as t h ey aro called , measure sometimes t en or twelve feet. The spider seldom bites or st ings, but should any one try , to catch him bite he will , and , thoug h not venomous , h is jaws aro as powerful as a bird' s bea k. Tho bodies of these spiders aro very handsomely decorated , being bright gold or seaiiet underneath , while the upper part is covered with the most delicate slate colored fur. So strong are the webs that birds the s ize of larks are frequently caught t herei n, and even t he small but pow- erful scaly lizard falls a victim. A wr iter says that he has often sat and watched the yellow monster—measur- ing, when waiting for his proy, with his l egs stretched out , fully six inches- striding across the middle of the net an d noted the rapid manner in which he winds his stout threads round tho unfortunate captive. Ho usuall y throws tho colls about tho head unti l the wretched victim is first blinded and then ch oked. In many un- frequented dark nooks of tho jungle you come across skeletons of small birds caugh t in these terrible snares. Lot tho greatest athlete have dyspepsia and hU muscles wou ld soon fall. Physi- cal stron gth Is derived from food. If a man has Insufficient food ho loses strongth. If he has no food ho dies. Food is con- verted into nutrition through tho stom- ach and bowols. It depends on tho stren gth of tho stomach to what oxtont food eaten Itf digested and assimilated. People oan dlo of starvation who havo abun dant food to cat, when tho stomach and Its associate organs of digestion and nutrit ion do not perform thoir duty. Thus tho stomach Is real ly tho vital or- gan of tho body. If tho stomach is " weak" tho body will bo weak also, because it Is u pon tho stomach tho body relies for its strength. An d as the body, considered as a whole , is tnado up of its several mem- bers ana organs, so tho wea kness of tho body as a consequence of "weak" stom- ach will bo distributed among tho or- gans which compose tho body. II tho body ls weak because it ls Ill-nourished that physical weakness will bo found in all tho organs—heart , liver, kldnoys, etc. Tho liver will bo torpid and inactive, giving rlso to biliousness, loss of appetite , wealc nerves, foeblo or irregular action of heart , palpitation , dizz iness, headache, backache and kindred disturbances and wea knesses. Mr. Louts Pare, of Quebec, writes: "For years after my health becan to fall , my bead irraw dlrzy, oyes pnlncd mo. nml my stomach was soro ah ihu liuio, while everyli.iiiK 1 would oat would scum to llo heavy like load on my atomacli.

SPECIAL NOTICE

Tlie genera l demand made for theretirement of U! S. Senator Thomas C.Piatt , on account of the malodorousscandals tainting his reputa tion in con-nection with his recent separation fro mhis wife and other affa i rs and on ac-count of his utter imbecility and unfi t -ness for the du ties of the office , wouldin the case of any man wi th a lessthick skin, have been followed by hisresignation at once. His term of officedoes not expire un til March 4, 1909,and the idea of having the great stateof New York, the empire state of ilieUnion , wi th a seventh of the entire-taxable wealth of the nation and atenth of its population , unrepresen tedin t h e upper branch of the nationallegislature all that time seems wellni gh intolerable.

Such an experience as we have hadfor the past four years with two nonen-ti ties representing or pretending torepresent this s tate .at Washingtonshould give qui te an impetus to thecause of the election of sena tors bydirect popular vote.

The result of Addicks' manipulat ionsin Delaware, Clark 's in Montana , Al-(fn'cfi 's in Kfiode Island and thescandals connected with the electionsof senators by state legislatures allover the Union are irresistibl y pushingforward' the cause of the election ofUnited States sena tors by a direc t vote'f the mass of electors. It is easier tobrib e or buy* up a state legislature thanit is all the people of the sta te and it ishi g h tune that we did away with theoli garchical ring of mil l ionaires that is'¦w in control of the United StatesSenator.

Governor-elect Charles LC. Hughesin an address , delivered at a receptiongiven him by the Republican club ofNew York city at the Waldorf-Astoriahist Friday ni ght , more than ever con-firmed the hi gh - op inion held of him bypa triotic citizens all over the land. Hetold his auditors that be was not oneof those who, alarmed at disconten t assuch , and satisfied with their lot in life ,referr ing partl y, of course, to the for-tu nate ones grouped about h im , viewedwi th illconcealed impatience anrl dis-gust elTorts at improvement. He sayswe may be more trul y alarmed at seem-ing indifference. He stated trul y, inhis own words, that the people werenot fools and thi.y would recognizeea rn est , sincere leaders trying to givethem a square deal and fair play aliaround. • How such words as the fol-lowing mus t have sounded in the earsof some of those presen t at thegathering:

The people expect and are en titledto have the governmen t administeredfor their benefit. They will not tol-erate leadership which serves self-inter-est or connives at the sacrifice of thepublic welfare to priva te advantage.They insist upon disin terested and in-telligent service in every department.In all elTorts to promote the success ofthe Republican part}' let it be remem-bered that public service is the bestpolitics. It is a short-sighted policywhich would regard offices as strong-holds , by the possession of whichthroug h clever tactics popular assaultmay be resisted.

Mr. Hu ghes, said that they shouldrather be regarded as oppor tun i t i es towin the public confidence throug h theefficien t performance of duty. Howvery few of the hi gh public officials olthe state of New York for the past fewyears have taken this view otpublic oi-ficc.

Concerning the wrongs committedby the corporations of the state ,personal comfort and convenience orpersonal interests must not stand inthe way, dealing thorougly. fearlesslywith - them , is the sen t iment of ourgovernor-elect.

Mr. Hu ghes paid a fine and j ustt r ibute to the independents and ne sayswe may coun t upon their support again

if we estab tiish by our deeds the sin-

ceri ty of our words.For many of our fellow-citizens

par ty lines have bu t small significance.Th ey are anxious for results , and carebu t l i t t l e for the banner under whichthey are .achieved. They are notmov ed by partisan appeal , but they areprepared to indorse and support an ad-minis tration of proved integri ty andcapacity. We should no t proceed uponthe assumption tha t we have imp lacableenemies, but rather in the belief that|W m eet ing the obvious and reasonabledemands of th e people we may grea tl yenlarge our supp ort.

The above are the words, not only of

a shr ewd political ) , out of a p a f i i u t of

th e h i ghest order.The gov ernor-elect said that this

is ii o l i m e ior rmes.se:I t is a t ime for candor and dneet

season. I n the .same parallel of la ti-tude in I taly, oranges and lemons aregrown , in California on the same paral-lel roses are grown in the open air allthe year round: The isothermal linetakes a long sweep to the northwardas i t crosses the Atlantic, and on theEuropean coast , where the tempera-ture is modi fied by the G11I/ stream,roses are grown in the open air in thewinter in Dorset , Devon and Somersetcoun ties and as far east as Norfolk andSuffolk.

The climate of Long Island is un-doubtedly affected largely by its prox-imi ty to the ocean and it is one of thebest all the year round climates in thecoun try. California climate, formerLong Island residen ts now living inthat state tell us, is not nearly as agree-able.

Many of the existing catarrhal , bron-chial and pulmonary troubles are theresul t of a lack of fresh air. Sleep withyour window wide open all ni gh t ; haveoffices or factories and dwellings thor-orougbly ven tilated by day and let inan abundance of sunli ght. Get out ofdoors as of ten and for as long a timeas possible at all seasons of the yearand most of the ills above named thatafflic t mankind would disappear. TheCreator made enough fresh air to goall the way around and has made uswith lungs, throat and skin demandingplen ty of this free air and sunli ght tokeep them in healthful eondition.

The criticism by the AmityvilleRecord of the Hun tington and' Baby-lon town boards in granting a perpet-ual franchise to the Huntington Rail-road company wi thout exacting anyannual ren tal is entirely uncalled for.In the firs t place the town and statealways have con trol over franchises inthe matter of taxation , and should thefranchise become valuable the asses-

sors would not be iong in nnaing it outIn the second ' place the. company

would not build the road were anyonerous condi tions imposed as to rentor as to the running of cars.

Both the Huntington and Babylontown boards exacted conditions insur-ing modera te rates of fare between thevillages and this will be a more sub-

stan tial benefit to the residents of the

town ' than any reasonable amount of

tax could be. This is also one of the

condi tions most sought after by thepeop le of both towns. . As to which

side of the hi ghway the rails shall be

laid , that is provided for.The statement that the Nassau

supervisors showed more wisdom in

making up the terms of their franchise

is open to question. They ask a rental

at the end of fifty years. That is more

than the l i fe t ime of a generation and

radical changes are likely to take place

in that t ime that may render all the

presen t trolley lines useless. History

teaches us that we may look for won-

derful changes in half a century

Moreover the franchise tax is fully as

productive a source of revenue.

The people of .Hunt ing ton felt as did

the town board of Haby lou that the

new trolley l ine will call for a large

ou tlay of capital and for many years

i t will n.it begin to pay the cost of

opera tion and interest on the invest-

ment. We know that no ot '-cr com-

pany than the L. I. R. K. could or

would b.iil 'l the l ine and we know what

it wil l do in the way of bui ld ing up all

.ilon" the Hi"" of (he route and the

building up of the villages of Hun t -

ington , Farming dale, A m i t y v i l l e and

Daby lon. We kn ow what an immense

benefit it has been to Hun t ington .

In view of these (acts and tha t for a

laruc portion of the distance the road

goes over a pr ivate ri ght of way the

hi ghway commissioners of the two

towns acted wisely in giving the rail-

road men every encouragement pos-sible,

If wo take auy moderately largo In-sect, say a wasp or a hornet , we eausee, even with the naked oj'e, thata series ot small spotlike mark s runsalong the side of the body. These ap-parent spots, which are eigh teen ortwenty In number, arc, in fact , theapertures through whiel ) air Is admit-ted Into ,the system, ami are generallyformed In such a manner that no ex-traneous mutter can by any possibilityfind entrance.

Sometimes they are furnished with apair of horny lips, which .can be openedand closed at the will of tho Insect; inother cases they are densely fringedwith stiff , interlacing bristles, forminga filter which allows air and air aloneto pass.

But the apparatus, of whatever char-acter It may be, ls always so wonder-fully perfect in its action that it hasbeen found Impossible to Injure thobody of a dead insect with so subtle amedium as spirits of wine, althoughtho subject was first immersed in thofluid and then placed beneath tho re-ceiver of an air pump.

Tho apertures In question communi-cate with two largo breathing tubes,which extend through the entire lengthof tho body. From these main tubesare given off innumerable branches,which run in ail directions and con-tinually divide and subdivide, until awonderfully intricate, network is form-ed pervad ing every part of the struc-ture and penetrating, even to the an-tennae. 1

AN ANCIENT TELEGRAPH.

Uaeil by Grecian Generals In theTime of Arifftofl c.

Telegraphy as a means of conveyinginformation to a distance by means ofsignals, etc., was used by the Greciangenerals In the time of Aristotle. Thisearly mode of telegraphing consistedof two or more earthen vessels, ex-act ly similar to shape and size and fill-ed with water. These vessels wereeach provided with faucets of exactlythe same caliber, so that an equalamount of water could bo dischargedfrom each In a given time.

In these vessels several uprightswere fixed , each with ,d isks attached,on which were certain , letters and sen-tences. When all was in readinessthe parly desiring to communicatewith another started a signal, which¦was continued until it was answeredby another which signified "go ahead."When that signal was given both turn-ed the faucets, and the water com-menced to escape. Tho water contin-ued to How until the sender of themessage relighted his torch , when theout let to both was instantly stopped,Tho receiver then read tho message onthe disk which was standing level withtho water, and I f every thing had beenexecuted with exnetnoss-it correspond-ed with tho message which tho senderdesired to convey, and which of course¦was tho 0110 also shown on tho diskstanding on n level with tho water inhis vessel.

A. local paper In Hungary publishednn account of tho rendering of "KingLear" on U10 sta go of a very smalltheater in tho town where tho paperappears. Tho Hun garian critic beganhis inilclo in (his way: "Tho historians,of literature aro still at da ggers drawnas to who wrote Shakespeare's pieces—Shakespeare or Bacon. After tonight'sperformance of 'King Lear' Uioro can-,not bo a doubt on the matter if any onewill take tho troublo to look into thotombs of those two famous men. Tho0110 who still lies on h is back"lias not'written 'King Lenr,' at any ra te, for th©trim nullior during tonight's perform-ance must certainly have 'turned in hiscrave."

A CniiHile Critic.

(SPIDERS OF CEYLON.Their Golden Web.1 Will Enrmnre

ltlrtfM nml Ij .zuimIn.Far up in the mountains of Ceylon

there is a spider that spins a web likebrigh t yellowish silk , the central notof which is five feet in diameter, whilethe supporting Hues or guys, as theyaro called, measure sometimes ten ortwelve feet. The spider seldom bitesor st ings, but should any one try , tocatch him bite he will , and , though notvenomous, his jaws aro as powerful asa bird's beak.

Tho bodies of these spiders aro veryhandsomely decorated , being • brightgold or seaiiet underneath, while theupper part is covered with the mostdelicate slate colored fur.

So strong are the webs that birds thesize of larks are frequently caughttherein, and even the small but pow-erful scaly lizard falls a victim. Awriter says that he has often sat andwatched the yellow monster—measur-ing, when waiting for his proy, with hislegs stretched out, fully six inches-striding across the middle of the netand noted the rapid manner in whichhe winds his stout threads round thounfortunate captive.

Ho usually throws tho colls about thohead unti l the wretched victim is firstblinded and then choked. In many un-frequented dark nooks of tho jungleyou come across skeletons of smallbirds caught in these terrible snares.

Lot tho greatest athlete have dyspepsiaand hU muscles would soon fall. Physi-cal strongth Is derived from food. If aman has Insufficient food ho loses strongth.If he has no food ho dies. Food is con-verted into nutrition through tho stom-ach and bowols. It depends on thostrength of tho stomach to what oxtontfood eaten Itf digested and assimilated.People oan dlo of starvation who havoabundant food to cat, when tho stomachand Its associate organs of digestion andnutrition do not perform thoir duty.Thus tho stomach Is really tho vital or-gan of tho body. If tho stomach is " weak"tho body will bo weak also, because it Isupon tho stomach tho body relies for itsstrength. And as the body, considered asa whole, is tnado up of its several mem-bers ana organs, so tho weakness of thobody as a consequence of "weak" stom-ach will bo distributed among tho or-gans which compose tho body. II thobody ls weak because it ls Ill-nourishedthat physical weakness will bo found inall tho organs—heart, liver, kldnoys, etc.Tho liver will bo torpid and inactive,giving rlso to biliousness, loss of appetite,wealc nerves, foeblo or irregular action ofheart, palpitation, dizz iness, headache,backache and kindred disturbances andweaknesses.

Mr. Louts Pare, of Quebec, writes: "Foryears after my health becan to fall , my beadirraw dlrzy, oyes pnlncd mo. nml my stomachwas soro ah ihu liuio, while everyli.iiiK 1would oat would scum to llo heavy like loadon my atomacli.
