MONDAY, AUGUST 10.1896. AA

A Notable Editor and Newspaper.
The Ansonia.- Sentinel ‘thus; relates

that “The Realm. Times,” has just -

issued a handsome brochure: giving
some interesting factsregarding the
paper. and its able editor. Alfred E.
Burr, together with illustrations of the
interior of the establishment.
Burr is 82 years old and during his
long life time “has had no other voca-
tion or ambition than that of editor
and proprietor of the Hartford
‘l‘imes.’ ” And surely ,this'is ambition
enough. And its measure of succe‘s is
so amply fulfilled that even Mr. Barr,
with his ambition yet undimned, ought
to be satisfied. Beyond question the
“Times” is one of the most successful
papers in New England, both editorial-'
lyaud in a business point of view. We‘
congratulate Mr. Burr and his able co-
adiutors and renew to them the assur-
ances of our highest personal esteem

To all of which, the next oldest Con-
necticut newspaper Editor, of the N 011-
wamr GAZETTE, would say Amen and
Amen.

4 Effects of Free Silver.

The common idea that free silver
must be a good thing for the poor man
because those who have money—invest_
ed otherwise than in silver—don’t watt
it. finds expression in the inquiry why
savings banks and saving funds and in-
surance companies, should object to
inch a law, if it would enable them to
pay their depositors or policy holders
incheaper money than they peid in.

That fiduciary institutions should be
glad of an opportunity to cheat their
creditors seems perfectly natural and
proper to the silver advocates. Yet if
A these people would stop to consider a
moment they would remember til it
these concerns do not, to a large extent";
keep the money entrused to them
locked up in their vaults. It is diffused
all‘through the community. "The banks
lend out the greater part of it to busi-
ness men, and the ssvlng funds and in.
surance companies invest it in real
estate and various securities. It is
’ sound money that they have invested;
if they are paid back in cheap money,
that is the kind they must pay their
creditors in turn, when called upon for
a return of their trust funds. ,

Boston Girl. A '

 

You can't judge by appearances any A A A

more accuratelyvnow than you could in
Ben Franklin’ 5 days. Early' 1n the win-
ter a charming young demoiselle from
Boston was visiting in Cleveland, and
received many attentions. She was
young, pretty and had a shy way about
her that was vsrr attractive. She
seemed such a. verdant maiden that the
young men were inclined to vote her a
mufi, but they quickly changed their

.minds.

One day alit tle party to a. suburban
club house was given in her honor, and
when they arr" Ivad at the place the la.-
dies were asked if they wouldn’t par-
take of liquid refreshments. They all
named lemonade until it came to the
demure girl from Boston.

“Make mine a Manhattan cocktail, ”
she softly lisped, ‘and please cut the

stick thick.”

There was no talk of verdancy after
that. -Clcveland Plain Dealer.

thousands of the animals have been
killed lately in one way or another. by

drives they do not appear to decrease

in numbers. Tho‘usle ands have been shot
in a day, but they come in from the
surrounding uncuh-mted regions ' to

feast on the grain fields in increasing

numbers. It is 9-: imated that three
jack rabbits will eat as much grain as

one sheep. A big drive was held in I -

February and many thousands of rab~
hits were killed, but a. month later it
was. estimated thorn were 100,000 on
the ground. Ana? filer drive was held

A Chasing Crane’ a Great Head.

The Hon. Chasing Crane, a distin

tribesman of the .‘ 'oux of the Lower
Brule division, has out 111 a claim for a
Government peusmn. He has not been
fighting for the United States, but he
has been eating for it, and he asserts
that his health has been damaged by
his consumption of the rations furnished

. to him. The Hon. Chasing Crane has

what is poetical 1y described as a great
head. Whether or not his petition suc-
ceeds, the country will be proud of ‘such
a mind; nor has any "(lower Brule states
man brighter hope:4 3* be, if he doesn t
eat too much. —N. Y. ‘51 ..n
