Society of Religious Education.

The fullest sympathy of our citizens,
says the Washington Post, willdoubt-
less be enlisted in the purposes and
plans of the American Society of Re-
ligious Education. While its scope is
national and great good will come from
its work to every state and city in the
land, by far the largest return will
be given to this city, as a few consider-
ations will show.

The society will open an office and
rooms here. In these will be collected
and preserved every device and requis-
ite for religious education, such as
maps, charts, papers, books used in
Sunday-schools, the text books for
Bible study and teaching in the closet,
the family, and the college ; statistical,

documentary and other information
from the various ecclesiastical publish.
ing houses. A reference library of
Biblical, encyclopedic, and pedagog-
ical matter will also be collected.
All this will be classified and made
accessible to the general public, and
the residents of this city will derive
therefrom incalculable benefit.

These rooms will be the cause of re-
ligious education what the Bureau of
Education of the United States is to
the cause of secular learning. The sep-
aration of state from church in this
country makes a library of this sort
a necessity to complete the. survey of
the educational field. Hence, the com-
niissioner has encouraged this feature
of the society’s work. And, as the
various denominations will be called to
contribute to the collection, the rooms
of the society will constitute a kind of
headquarters for the American church-
cs, a rendezvous for ministers and lay-
men from all parts of the United
States.

The anniversaries of the society will
be held in this city, and they will bring
together eminent Christian scholars
from the States. The papers presented
on such occasions and the discussions
of the various topics will bring before
our people living questions. The best
thought of the best minds will find ut-
terance. It is probable that no. more
important assemblies will be held
among us, going far to make our pec-
plc acquainted with men and themes of
general interest.

The president and secretary of the
society will make their home in Wash-
ington. The former, Gen. John Eaton,
is a life-long educator, well known in
all parts of the land. The latter, Rev.
J. E. Gilbert, D. D., of Indianapolis,
has devoted most of his life to the
stud y of educational themes, and is an
enthusiast upon the society’s work.
These men will give themselves earnest-
ly to every local religions interest in
our city. '

The other members of the executive
committee of the society, Dr. Gregory,
Dr. Beiler, Dr. Dabney, Dr. Duvall,
and many more, give assurance that
whatever is undertaken will be wisely
conducted. Moreover, they will natur-
ally draw into this work many states-
incn, active Christians in the States
from which they come, who will find
here congenial employment for the r
talents, and who will shed additional
luster upon their public life by their
efforts in behalf of morals and religion.

For the foregoing reasons, and many
others which might be mentioned, the
establishment of this society’s head-
quarters in Washington is to be es-
cemed an event of more than ordinary
importance. The Sunday school work-
ers and a large number of pastors, the
former collectively, the latter individ-
ually, have given expression to their
cordial welcome. It now remains for
business men, officials of the govern-
ment, and others to do likewise. Here
is an opportunity for the display of
public spirit in behalf of an institution
that has come to stay, to grow, and to
do good.

W
His License Revoked.

In the Superior court Friday, Judge
Tnaycr, in the appeal of William F.
Hoyt from the County commissioners,
handed down a decision revoking the
license granted to Thomas Village, of
South Norwaik, and taxing the costs
upon the commissioners.

There was a strong remonstmnce
against the license on the ground of
unsuitability of person and location.
William F. Hoyt really represented the
Law and Order league.

The case was the first one tried in

this county under the new law allowlng

appeals from, the County commissioners.

Obituary.

 

THOMAS SHEFFIELD MORISON.
. “Rest at last, '
Repose complete. eternal;

Love, rest. and home.”

The telegraph this morning brings
the sad intelligence of the death of
Thomas S. Morison at the Shoreham
Hotel in Washington, where he and
his little family had stopped on their
way heme from Thomasvdlc, Ga,
whither he had gone last fall in the
hopes that the warm climate of the
“Sunny South” would benefit him.
While in Washington he suffered a re:
lapse and in spite of the tender careol
the loved ones who accompanied him
and the constant attendance of Dr. J.
G. Gregory, who had been summi nod
to his bedside, he gradually failed and
at 4:35 o’clock, this morning, surround-
ed by those most dear to him, he quiet-
ly passed away. .

Mr. Morison was born in Brooklyn,

N. Y., June 5, 1865, and was in the
twenty—ninth year of his age. On J une
10, 1886, he was married to Miss Flor-
ence Bogart by the Rev. Howard S.
Clapp, assisted by Rev. C. “M. Selieck.
and has two pretty little children, both
0rirls.
h,H'e was a Mason of high degree, and
thejunior member of the firm of Hutch-
inson, Pierce & Co., of Bridgeport, and
Hutchinson, Cole & Co., of Norwalk.

,“Tom,” as he was familiarly called
by his friends, while not demonstrative
was genial, hospitable and courteous to
all. He had a warm heart and friends
he prized. Long and lovingly Will his
memory be cherished by his bereaved
and stricken family and unnumbered
friends. .

The family will leave Washington to.
day with the remains and notice of his
funeral will be published later.

“True as Preaching.”

If reporters were obliged to tell who
writes things or where facts come from
it would be impossible to publish. a
newspaper. Of course, no paper Will-
ingly publishes untrue items. When a
wrong story is printed they feel worse
than parties affected, as it is a matter
of pride to have only the truth and
avoid corrections. But while human
nature remains as it is, reporters Will
receive misleading information and
some of it will get into type. If rc-
porters saw everything that happened
errors would be fewer. But they can’t
be everywhere. They have to inquire
up every case or incident from different
people. We all know that ten persons
will frequently describe the same oc-
currence in ten different ways and all
be honest and truthful. Reporters with
very rare exceptions are honest; they
try to find out the facts. They dig
them out by the roots as it were. They
interview every person supposed to
know anything about the case in hand.
They chase down rumors. They find
that most every one tells a different
story without intending to deceive.
Once in a while they strike ‘a genuine
liar who wants to fool them, but the
real liar, thank heaven, is the excep-
tion, not the rule. When they’ve seen
everybody they set at work to sort out
the chaff from the wheat. .

Most of the witnesses they examine
exact from them a pledge of secrecy as
to what they impart, .and the reporter
—honorable in all things—mover breaks
it. This is why we say that if report-
ers could be forced to reveal the secrets
of their office and their work, it would
not be possible to publish a newspaper
worth using on the pantry shelves,
much less for reading purposes to meet
the wants of an intelligent public——
Bridgeport News.

 

——Notice. ,
WE MEET ALL PRICES, BEAR
THIS IN MIND. WE WILL NOT
BE UNDER-SOLD.

Pennsylvania Washington Tours.
No city in the United States gives so
much in return for a review of its build-
ings and surroundings as Washington,
and the month of May being the most
delightful of all months in which to
visit the national capitol, the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company with its usual
foresight, has arranged for two person-
ally conducted tours to leave New York
on May 3rd and 24th, respectively, un-
der escort of a tourist agent and chap-
eron; each tour to include a period of
three days. Tickets, including trans.
portation, meals enroute and hotel ac-
commodations, only $1330 from New
York, and proportionately low rates
from other stations. Application for
itineraries or other information should
be made to Pennsylvania Railroad
Ticket Agents or address Tourist Agent

May Take Away His Pension.

Nephi Whitlock, an aged veteran
who lives in Ridgcfield, has received a
small pension from the government
several years. Mr. Whitlock is totally
blind, very deaf, and almost helpless.
The pension money is about the only
means of support left to him. The
pension was granted on account of his
blindness and not long ago the pension
department received a letter, written it
is said by one of Mr. Whitlock’s neigh-
bors, declaring that his eye sight was
poor when he entered the army and
that his blindness was not due to his
military service.

The government has sent a special
examiner to investigate the case and
hearings have been held in Ridgefield
this week. The old man was unable to
defend himself properly and his friends
have engaged counsel to present his
side of the case to the examiner.

Mr.Van Buren Resigns.

Robert Van Buren, who was reap-
pointed Chief Engineer of the Brook-
lyn City Works Department by Com-
missioner White in February, has of-
fered his resignation to take effect on
May 1. In his letter he assigns the
followmg reason for retirement : “Af-
ter twenty-nine years of constant asso-
ciation with this department, during
which my onerous labors have been
lightened by the unexampled devotion
of every member of my bureau, and
by a most kind appreciation on the
part of my fellow-citizens, I cannot
take this step without some reluctance,
but I am' really unable to give the city
the number of hours of daily office
service demanded. I require rest.”

The Commissmner has accepted the
resignation. He expressed his appro-
ciation' of the services of Mr. Van
Buren In writing. "

Mr. Van Buren entered the service
of Brooklyn in 1865, and Bruce 1877 has
been] Chief Engineer of the depart-
men .

Horr’s OPERA HOUSE.

Bartley Campbell’s intensely interest-
ing romantic drama of life and love in
tussia, the fanfamed “Siberia.” will
be presented on Tuesday evening, April
21th at Hoyt’s Opera House. It is now
eleven years since “Siberia” was first
produced; and yet all ’accounts agree
that the play this season is attracting
larger audiences than cverbefore,wllich
fact plainly shows what an astonishing
hold it has on public favor. A power.
ful company of carefully selected play-
ers, with new scenery, costumes and
appointments ensures a first-class per-
formance, and no one who enjoys a
good play, well staged and well acted,
should neglect the opportunity to see
one of the most successful dramas that

the stage has ever known.

One of the strong points of Ullie
Akcrstrom’s plays is their purity of

Her comedies are free from the faint-

the some of grace and elegance, free
from any suggestiveness. She is an
artist whose aim is to show that which
is good, instructive, amusing and mind
elevating in the drama. This is the
secret of her great success. Her pa-
trons number the best people, and her
plays are particularly attractive to the
educated and thinking. She has won
her position by her talent and applica-
tion to her profession. Her literary
ability is of a high order. She will ap-

Proceedings of Bdtll‘ Branches of the N8-
tlonal Legislature. -
\VASHINGTON, April .‘Zl.——W'lien the sen-

Slierman, from the committee on foreign
relations, reported a bill for the correction’
of an error in the Bering sea bill recently
passed, ‘ .

By the substitution of the-word “exclu-
sive” for “inclusive” the intention of the
not, he said. had been entirely changed.
The act as amended reads: “That no per-
son of the United States or person owing
the duty of obedience to the treaties and

, laws of the United States shall kill, cap-
ture or pursue any fur seal within a’zonc
of 60 geographical miles around the Priby-
10v islands, inclusive of the territorial was
ters.” .

Mr. Sherman said he had investigated
the matter and was satisfied that the mis-
take had not occurred in the office of the
secretary of the senate, but in the printing
office, and that it had mainly been cor-
rected by correspondence ctwcen the state
department and the British government.
The bill was passed.

A resolution for the repeal of the state
bank tax was presented by Senator Gor-
don of Georgia and at his request was re—
ferred to the committee on finance.

Senator Gallingcr (Rep, N. H.) litter dc-

»livered a short speech against the pro-
posed tarifl.’ bill.

At the opening session of the house Mr.
Burrows (Mich) again called attention to
the fact that Mr. \‘l'hceler (Ala), who
spoke for exactly one, minute during the
debate on rules a few days ago, had print-
ed a speech of four columns in The Con-
gressional Record.

Mr. \thelcf made a long speech in ex:
planation, in the course of which he re-
viewed at some length his devotion in the
past to the rules of the house. lle inti-
mated that when Mr. Burrows called at-
tention to this matter the other day he
had taken an unfair advantage of his ab—
sence. Mr. Burrows’ hands, Mr. \Vhecler
said, were red with the blood of parlia-
mentary murder.

This rather startling metaphor seemed
to tickle the risibilities of the house, and
the members were convulscd. Ho‘ admit-~
ted amid renewed laughter that perhaps
he had extended his remarks a little more
than he should.

Mr. Burrows lib reply denied good na-
turedly that he had sought to take ad-
vantage of Mr. Wheeler‘s absence the oth-
er day.

Mr. Jiced. in some rather sharp words,
complained of the abuse of making The
Congressional Record the wastebasket for
undelivered speeches.

Mr. Dockcry moved to refer the while
subject to the committee on printing,
whereupon Mr. \theler.rcq nested the per:
mission of the house to withdraw his re-
marks from the permanent record.
