The Evening Schools.

We regret to learn that there is, dip-
lomatically speaking, hardly a mod’us
'vz‘vendi between the Board of School
VisitOrs and the,Principal of our new-
ly inaugurated system of evening
schools. To be sure, the school board
with a moderation worthy of a United
States‘ Senate deliberated upon the
measure, but they didn’t open an even~
ing school. -

The selectmcn, however, acted and
with bended knee and tearful eye they
finally prevailed upon the great editor
to leave the delights of his sanctum
and the profits of his counting room
and anew sacrifice himself on the altar
of education. Just what authority the
the selecimen had to outrun the school
board does not clearly appear, but with
their assistance Mr. Maples has admin-
istered to the school board about as big
a dose Ofsnubbing as that "delibera-
tive body” has yet recoived.

And yet, the school board can, under
the statutes, make it rather disagree-
able for the editor-teacher. For in-
stance they might withhold their exe-
quat-ur until they had examined him
and found out whether he is an “all-
around” scholar and knows as much
about the rule of three as he evidently
does about the rules of grammar. We
hope, however, that the formality of an
“examination” will be waived by virtue
of a dispensation granted by the Grand
Master of the School Board.

Seriously, however,'we hope the effi-
ciency and usefulness of the evening
schools will not be impaired by any lit-
tle “spate” about jurisdiction. In the
cause of education there should be no
room to nurse wounded dignity nor»
strifes for precedence. Let the school
board give a complimentary dinner to
Mr. Maples,’and at the hour of feast-
ing banish forever all differences.

 

Thanksgiving Day.

To-morrow will be the time honored
New England social, domestic and re:
ligious day of all the year; pro-eminently
the day of -Home, Country and Fire-
side. It is a day made doubly BWeet
and sacred in the memory of every one
inheriting Pilgrim blood and traditions.
We have every reason for behaving
that our Pilgrim forefathers celebrated
their first Thanksgiving Day with Hes.
ven’s blue dome for a roof and the
brown earth for a floor. They had been
so successful in their efforts to found
homes in the wilderness, and their
hearts were so full of gratitude in the
mercies they remembered, they forgot
the fearful hardships they had endured,
and when the mellow Indian summer
of 1621 came, they felt themselves
moved by a fervent desire to thank
God publicly in a general way for their
improved conditions and the measure
of comforts granted.

“ Our harvests being gotten in,” says
the record of Edward Winslow, “our
Governor, sent four men fowling, so
that we might, after a special manner,
rejoxce together. They four in one
day killed as much fowl, as with a little
help beside, served the company nearly
a week. At which time, among other
recreations, we exercised our arms,
many of the Indians coming .iimong us,
among the rest their greatest King,
Massasoyt, with some ninety men, who
for three days we entertained and
feasted, and they (the Indians) went
out and killed five deer, which they
brought to the plantation and bestowed
on our Governor and, on the captain
(Myles Standish) and others. And al-
though it be not‘ always so plentiful
with us, yet by the goodness of God,
we are so far from want that 'we often
wish you partakers of our plenty.”

Being such a sternly religious people,
probably the Pilgrims aimed at repeat-

ing in this somewhat prolonged opcn- ,

air festival the Biblical feast of the
Tabernacles, which includes the feast
of the “Harvest of the Ingathering.”
It was evidently a. hearty, healthy pub-
licplay-spell, a few days of much-need-
ed rejoicing and good cheer.

We moderns, with our luxurious
taste, would not have much gratitude
for the short commons they called

“ good cheer,” but even we might have"

approved of the wild turkeys, which
tradition tells us sometimes weighed
sixty pounds. There were also wild

. geese in their season, and as one writer

assures us. " over 200 varieties offisb,

including shell—fish.” Love for the lat-
ter seems almost a’gift of heredity with
New Englanders. The relish for oys-
ters is undying; and as for clams, the
rule still prevails at annual clambakes
on the sea shore that a feaster must eat
till the pile of emptied shells in front
of him screens him entirely from view.”

In our Connecticut colony, after 1649,
the courts appointed yearly “thanks-
giving for the blessing of the harvest”
with some regularity. But in 1675 even
that grateful, appreciative community
found their hearts too bowed with grief
to wear the garment of rejoicing. The
ferocious Indian warfare had cruelly
decimated their ranks. Their trades
had suffered, the tillers of the soil were
laid low, their houses were burned, and
their sufferings were'intolerable. They
were too strong and brave to' sit long
in sackcloth and ashes, and the next
year there is record of a”Publique
thanksgiving with prayer that the Lord
would help us in our lives and wayes to
walk answerable to His abundant
mercyes.”

The historian informs us that for
more than eighiy'years the appoint-
ment of Thanksgiving was more or less
erratic. As a regularly instituted state
festival, it was a plant of slow growth,
not taking firm root until after the
close Of the seventeenth century; but
whenever or wherever. the miscellane-
ous appointments were made, the day
generally came in the ripe autumn,
when the rich gifts of bounteous na-
ture were gathered in and the store-
houses were overflowing with ripened
grain and fruits laid up for winter use.

Both Governors and pastors agreed
in their respective states in proclaiming
a day of festivity and praise, but not
seldom the appointments fell upon dif-
ferent dates in different states, which
was a matter of small comparative mo-
ment at that time, when steam had not
bridged space with its rapid transit,
and families who were separated by
long distances could not flock to the
01d homesteads as they learned to do
later. .» '

In the autumn of 1789, a resolution
was offered in the House by Boudinot,
requesting the President to appoint a
day of thanksgiving, to be kept in all
the states, in recognition of the “many
signal favors of Almighty God, and es-
pecially 'for' the opportunity afforded
the nation to establish a constitutional
government.” Roger Sherman sup-
ported the motion, but Burke and oth-
ers opposed it as a mimicry of Euro-
pean customs. Tucker, in a truly con-
servative spirit, advised postponing the
expression of gratitude till after some
experience of the Constitution and its
effects. But in spite of Opposition and
hot debate, the motion was carried by
a large'majority. .

And so on, the pious Pilgrims from
year to year, came to recognize the
day as one in which, with such luxuries
of the table as their sorely limited
means would afford, all of the house-
hold were to be gathered at the family
table to return thanks gratefully for
“His favors every year made new,”
until now, when throughout this great
and powerful Nation Thanksgiving Day
has become an universal anniversary of
the Home and Fireside.

But as each one gathers about the
family board to-morrow, let him not
forget that this is an exceptionally hard
and trying year, a year of unusual pri-
Vation, and want to many in our land
who have never known want before and
that each on'e’s duty lies in “minister-
ing to other’s wants,” as well as to our
own gratifications of appetite.

True, even now, for all in all, we as a
people have more solid comfort and en-
joyments than any other on the globe.
What with our unnumbered comforta-
ble homes even for the poor, our
schools, colleges,’ churches, libraries,
newspapers, abundant crops, abound-
ing health and hope and courage, and
with Peace within all our borders, have
we not much to be devoutly thankful
for, though'trade be temporarily dull,
manufacturing at a standstill, and busi.
ness not as profitable or thrifty just
now, as of yore? The GAZETTE ex-
tends its sincerest good cheer to all—to
tottering grand-parents and tottling
babes, one and all, as they gather to-
morrow about the table of Home and
Fireside—but let your Thanksgiving
be made doubly joyous by helping to
make any destitute ones equally hap py
with yourselves.

Ended His Life.

James Robson, a machinist, thirty
years old, committed suiside Tuesday
afternoon at- his boarding place in
Stamford. Robson was employed at
the Yale &: Towne lock works until the
factory began to run on short time.
Then Robson went to Jersey City to
work, but he came to Stamford every
Saturday night and returned to Jersey
City on Monday mornincs. Tuesday
alternoon Mrs. C. G. Ensley, the board-
ing mistress, discovered a trail of blood
reaching from Robson’s room through
the hall and up two flights of stairs.
She called in a man from the street and
following up the trail they found Rob-
son lying face downward on the floor
in the gel rot in a pool of blood. Near
him was ajackknife and it was supposed
that is was with this that the deed had
been done, but returning to Robson’s
room they found a razor covered with
blood on the floor. Robson has been
trying to get a divorce from his wife,
who lives in East Boston, and it was to
accomplish this that he retained his
residence in Stamford.

A father and two sisters of the suicide

Should Gonna Down.

Wages are constantly’going down.
Prices of manufactured goods and farm
produce have all adownward tendency,
but war prices prevail for rents. Why
should they not have a cut alon with
everything else? They are big or in
America than in'any other country on
earth and they are about as high in
New Britain as any city of its size.
There is a general complaint among
working people that the rent takes
about all they can earn after paying
the meagre grocery and coal bills. Of
course the truly good and prosperous

citizen will say that_all men should be

thrifty and own their own homes, but
the cold fact is that they don’t and not
many of them ever will if we get down.
to free trade wages. To compare with

Wages and goods, ‘rents. should come -

down at least one-third.—New Britain.

Sassafras oil is splendid for darken-
ing the hair. It should be applied with
a small brush.

For shampooing the hair nothing is
better than plenty of tar soap and hot
water. It is better than castile even,
and makes a fine soft lather. A little
borax or a tablespoonful of‘ammonia in
the water is also good for oily hair, but
too much of either turns the hair grey.

For cycling the most simple and
perfectly convenient dress is the plain
kilt plaited skirt and the bolero jacket.
Brown or black serge is the best color,
and felt sailor hats are most conven-
ient. The Scotch stocklings, with brown
boots reaching to the ankles, are appro-
priate.

Keep your eye on your tongue if you
want to be beautiful. It is the weather-

noble Gladstone puts it, nothing is im-
possible to the well man.

Tariff Legislation Cannot
Be Rushed.

March 15!; Next, When Many Provi-
sions of the Bill are to Take Effect,
May Find the Measure Still ' in
Congress—Outline of the Work.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.—The republican
members of the committee on ways and
means will not meet their democratic com-
mittee associates .,iintil Friday of this
week. At that time the tabular state‘
ment showing the rates intho present and
the proposed new law will be completed.
With this data in hand, the minority com-
mitteemen will be better able to under-
stand the nature of the changes made by
the majority.

About the middle of next Week the bill
will be taken up for discussion in the com.
mittee. It will be read by paragraph and
the republicans will then offer their
amendments. After the bill has been
thoroughly considered by the full commit-
tee the republicans will prepare their re-
port and present it to the house.

Early Debate Doubtful.

The expectation that debate will com-
mence upon the measure shortly after the
meeting of congress is not likely to be
realized. .

It is doubtful if the democrats will fin-
ish their report in time to present it to
the full committee before next Monday.
Under the rules the republicans will have
ten days in which to prepare their report,
which will delay matters until the 14th
of December.

As the house will probably adjourn Fri—
day Dec._22 for the holiday recess, it may
be fairly presumed that only a few days’
debate, if any, can be had, under the
most favorable circumstances, during the
first month of the session.

If the house does not reassemble before
thc’4th of January the bill is not likely to
be sent to the senate before February.
There it may remain in committee a fort-
night, and if a. month be given to its con-
sideration in open senate, which is re-
garded as a moderate estimate, it “1111 be
seen that even. under favorable circum-
stances the day named. in the bill f‘o‘r
many of. its provisions to take effect, the
lst of March, 1394, will probably fiud‘the
bill still in congress.

With Manlfestoes.

The trade unions involved in the hat-
ters lockout at Danburv are preparing
a manifesto to be issued in a day or two.
This manifesto will define the locked
out men’s position in the trouble.

It will show how the five paragraphs
submitted to them by the manufacturers
were agreed to by them with the excep.
tion of a few minor exceptions. These
qualifications the unions believe to be
necessary to the maintenance of the
spirit and objects of their organization.

The Hat Manufacturers’ association
at a recent meeting agreed to forfeit
$1,000 for a, breach of the contra-2t en-
tered into in regard tonot employing
union men. The bosses are also pre-
paring a manifesto which they will ._is-
sue in a few days. They will allow the
men to come back without the qualifi-

OPERA HOUSE.

Norv’valk’s favorite actress will appear
at the Opera House next Monday night
in a new comedy. She will present
the brightest of all comedies, the “Sul-

tan’s Favorite.” It is a well-known

fact that melo drama and emotional
plays of a like nature have lost favor
with the average theatre-goer. What
they want in these stringent times is to
be amused. They can see quite gloom
enough in their daily life without seek-
ing it in the theatre, consequently,
comedies are all the rage. The “Sul-
tan’s Favorite” is a panacea for all ills,
mentally and bodily for the time being.
The situations are exceedingly amus-
ing and the gradation, frOm the sublime
to the ridiculous is at times so startling
that'it will upset the gravity 'of‘ the
most confirmed cynic. Between acts
Miss Akerstrom will. introduce 'her new
dance “La-ChromotOpe.” In it she is

'aiveritable kaleidoscOpe, and the ever-

chan ing colors are so beautifully.

VIRGIL, N. Y.—With no motive other

than to do good, I write this letter with

the hope it may reach the' eye of the

810k and suffering.

“I was very sick about two years ago,

. our ‘family physician said I was suffer-

ing from overflow of the gall, another .
declared thatI was suffering from' ul-
cers of the liver. Their prescriptions
failed to benefit me, for I gradually
grew worse until finally I was told that
I could not live. At this critical period ,
my mother persuaded me to try Dr. ’
David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy,
whichI did, and I began to improve
steadily, and continued its use 'until I
was completely cured. I now weigh
140 pounds, and never enjoyed such
good health as at present. I prize Fav-
orite Remedy higher than gold.

Mother is 83 years old and has been
kept alive for years by the use of this
great medicine. .
Mns. J ENNIEWRENNIE.

. In speaking of Dr. Kennedy’S-Favor-‘
ite Remedy, one of our local physicians
said: "Its undoubtedly the best medi-
cine we have for renOVating the entire
system ; it eliminates all poisons from
the blood, whether of scrofula or ma-
iarial origin ; for chronic dyspepsia,
rheumatism, nervousness. or any uri-
nary trouble, all of which arise from
an execss of uric acid in the blood, it
mixer rails to cure where a cure is pos-
