Good Example from the West.
Our exchanges are enlivened by an
event of unique originality or
practical grace that has just trans-
pired in the to an of Waverly, in the
State of Nebraska which has given the
country a model plan for working off
public indignation aglinst persons who
' outrage the moral sentiment of com-
munities. It is a decided improvement
on tar and feathers, raw hide, newspa-
per abuse or ridicule, or even more vig-
orous personal chastisement. It . is
original, inexpensive, and safe.
Not many days ago, four citizsns of
Waverly suddenly disappeared Two
Of the four were male and two were fe-
male Citizens. They vanished from the
gaze of their respective families, and
when the inhabitants of the town had
been‘i‘ounded up, not one of the four-
was discern-able in the crowd. In short,
two clopements had occurred simul-
taneously ; two wives and two husbands
had departed, and two wives and two
husbands, likewise a number of chil-
dren, were left lamenting.
Had this occurred in ~almost any of
the older Szates, in New England, the
Middle,the old Northwest, or the South
there would have been mounting in hot
haste, a fierce pursuit and some Sort of
punishment. But the Waverly folk
we re too as gry to pursue, ahd too much
disgusted to wish to. the return of the
fugitive. ‘hey were intensely and
awfully excited. Business was practi-
cally suSpended Dr two days, while the
people talked of the double elopement,
and of nothing else. Finally the situa-
tion "eh came so serious, the necessity
for reilc that the clergy,
he deacons and a low’ discreet women
of mature ngc felt that something must
be done at once. These good people
helda prayerful consultation, the re-
sult of which was the calling of a pub.
lic meeting in the town hall. That
edifice was packed almost to the suffo-
cation point, before the opening prayer
began. Speeches followed the invoca-
tion, and then two committees, one of
men, the other of women, were chosen
t) draw up two sets of resoldtions. The
so urgent,
resolutions submitted by the women ex-°
pressed their deep indignation, while
the product of the other committee,
glowed with righteous wrath. Both
sets were adopted, the meeting dis-
solved, the people wenthome and re-
tired to their dormatories. Silence
tell on Waverly. The next morning
business was resumed; all the people,
knowing that thoyhad done their duty,
quietly took up the burden of life again.
Many goof: things have come out Of
the West, and this is one of the best of
them. Resolutions and prayers are
better than fifles in a case like this. It
certainly is a goo-.1 example set all
communities, thus dishonored and
afflicted. Yet in the not. impossible
event of a similar disgrace befalling
Norwalk what are we to do ? To invite
ladies to our pig-stye townhouse for
prayer and resolves, or indeed for any
purpose, would be a remedy worse than
the disease. As yet our Selectmen sit
supincly by, knowing full well the
possibility of such an affliction falling
upon us in an unguarded and unexpec-
ted moment. Ergo. fix up the town
house. -
‘ A Significant Movement.
It does not seem likely that Great
Britain will go back to the policy of
protection right away. I‘ree trade has
been the accepted policy of that fiation
now for v.1iually half a century; and it
is improbable thtt a principle which
has been so long established, can be
easily uprooted, especially when sup.
ported, as it is in this case, by powerful
inlustrial interests.
Nevertheless, the action of the Na’j
tional Agricultural Union of Great
Britain this week is highly significant.
That body, which was, attended by al
large number of peers and members of
the House of Commons, unanimously
resolved to organize an Agricultural
party in Parliment, one of whose ob-
jects shall be the reimposition of duties
on imported grain. The purpose of
this movement is not disguised by its
promoters. It is not to. raise revenue
for the British exchcquer, but to afford
protection to British farmers against
foreign competition. What renders the
movement noteworthy is that the Na-
tiOnalAgricnlt-ural Union makes no at;
tempt to apoliglze for advocating the
principle of protection. A few years
agoi‘the English people would have
greeted a programme of this kind with
a howl of derision.
We said it is unlikely that the United
soon. This statement should be quali-
fied. No cause ever had a darker ont-
109k than that Of free trade on the very
eve of its triumph in Great Britain, 'and
what occurred in that instance may be
repeated in‘the case of the protection
movement.
Condemned the Ice.
The City Medical society of New Brit-
Britain has condemned the ice on all
the ponds in that cityowing to thcdip-
theria scare. Local dealers have been
notified not to handle any of the ice.

’proud of their first sociable.
Wants $5.000.
Rev. J. B. Nihill, a Roman Catholic
priest of Bridgeport, has brought a suit
against the city of New Britain for
35.000. The amount is claimed as dam-
ages for the city trespassing on a lot of
land near Traut’s park, owned by
Father Nihill. Sand has-been taken
from the lot and city sewage turned
into a stream running through it.

”A Midnight Frolic.”
The above title seemed to arouse the
curiosity Of the New York public, so
much so that on the opening night the
house was packed—to the doors. Tne
success of the play was instantaneous,
and during the entire New York enga-
gement the theatre was crowed. The
play is an unqualified success; the com-
panyapowerful and evenly balanced
one, and Miss Lillian Kennedy as the
heroine, presents 9. characterizrtion
which for histrionic ability has never
A Significant Debarture.
With the departure of another year
when a review is made of the condition
of affairs, it is only right that some
thought be given to the physical body
which enables everyone to battle with
life’s problem and figure for themselves
the profit or loss on the trial balance
sheet. Though the bank account may
be large and each one’s miterial gain
be great, it would-not be surprising if
it suddenly dawns upon many that good
health has been greatly impoverished
by the low condition of the blood. It
is in this state that the lactic acid in the
vital fluid attacks the fibrous tissues,
particularly the joints, making known
the local manifestations of rheumatism.
Thousands of people have found in
Hood’s Sarsaparilla the great blood
purifier, a positive and permanent cure
for rheumatism.
Failed to Register.
At Norwich, Rev. Frederick Kern,
pastor of the German Lutheran church,
is held to answer a complaint that for
compensation. gain and reward, he
practiced medicine contrary to the
statutes of this state, which provides
that every person. who practices medi-
,cine in Connecticut shall have a certifi-
cate of registration. The complaint-
covers a dozen pages and gives the
names of people that the accused has
doctored. Mr. Kern pleaded not guilty
.and the trial of the case was set down
fer Dec. 213i, and bonds were fixed at
3500.” Mr. Kearn has been pastor of
the German Lutherine church for a
year, and of late has had rather a. tur-
bulent time with some Of his flock.
The latter part of November, President
Lindsley of the State Board of Health
was notified that Mr. Kern was prac-
ticing medicine among the German peo-
ple about Norwich. Mr. Lindsley im-
inediately referred the matter to C. F.
Thayer, county health officer. He
made a. thorough investigation and on
Tuesday turned the evidence he had
obtained to City Attorney Allis. Mr.
Kern’s friends claim that he will be
'able to explain matters to the satisfact-
ion of the court.

liam De F. Prentiss, and Luthe’r Mar-
shall against Stephen Thayer. '
In the case of N. Jennings against J.
T. Jennings the motion was a request
for the final decree of foreclosure.
The property consisting of ten acres of
land, is located in Westport. It was ap-
praised at $400 and sold for $460.11:
was shown that that amOunt would not
pay all the claims against the property,
including the expenses connected
with the foreclosure proceedings. The
case went over in order to allow coun-
sel to complete certain papers.

Cleveland’s Minstrels.
W. S. Cleveland's Minstrels opened a
week’s engagement at the Academy of
Music last night to a,large and thor-
oughly apprecirtive audience that com-
pletely packed the house. For the
first part the curtain rises on the white
artists in court costumes. Directly b--
hind the royal personagoe hangs a
heavy curtain that parts and disclcses a
company of colored minstrels, with an-
other curtain that afterwards parts as
the first one did and brings to view a
band of Arabs and a troupe of Japanese
in picturesque costumes. Following
this first par t there are several good
Specialties and a laughable colored
dance, and the performance of the Ara-
bian and Oriental marvels. In these
two great features three t) six acts are
given simultaneously. The singers of
the company are all of a high class and
the quartette selections offered are par-
ticularly pleasing—New Orleans Times

A Musical Governor.
It is good to know that the Hon. Or-
pheus Vincent Coffin, Governor ofCon-
necticut, has not allowed the cares of
Strte to interfere with those musical
tastes and accomplishments which were
his when he was a candidate. He goes
to all the oratorios, operas, organ dedi-
cations, symphonies, concerts, piano
and violin recitals, glee club perform-
ances, ballad and madrigal matinees,
evenings with his banjo and mandolin,
flute tests, tambourine ponuds, drum
fife sociables, and accordiOu afternoons
in. the State. Wherever he goes the
German flute is in his inside pocket.
His messages and letters are written in
music, which is set to words by his
private secretary. The influence of
such a Goveanor cannot but be sweet
and harmonizing, not only on his own
party but on all parties and all the in-
habitants of Connecticut. Even the
Moodus noises have ceased.—-New York

Work on the thenslon. '
Despite the cold weather, high winds
and frozen earth that the men have to

The company’s work car has been.
transferred to a point near the Green,
and it is flanked by car NO. 11 which
has been fitted up with a stove and is
used as a dining car for the workmen
Considering all things the progress
made is satisfactory. 1

ness of. Presidential "campaigns and
what gave the Convention to St. Louis,
by this statement:
Mr. Cornelius N. Bliss carried home
with him to New York a check for fifty-
four thousand dollars, Signed by Sam-
uel Kennard, President of the Business
Men’s Association of St. Louis, which
was part of the price paid for the Re-
publican National Convention. ’With
the money Mr. Bliss will settle the
debts of the committee that came over
from the campaign of 1892, and aggre-
gate about that sum. Advances were
made originally by Mr. Bliss himself to
tha amount of nearly twenty-five thous-
anddollars ; the account of the commit-
tee with Seliegman & 00., bankers, was
over-drawn nearly eighteen thousand
dollars, .and Mr. Thomas Dolan, of
Philadelphia, assumed liabilities to the
amount of $12,000. These gentlemen
have made no complaint, but- will
doubtless be glad to see their money
again. 7
