Widesp1 cad prospe1iIty is something
that' the opponents to the republican
party do not want, but there seems to
be no way to stop it. —N01 w ich Bulle—

We pl esurne, when it has sufficIently
discussed the matter, and ar1ived at
the prope1 time, the Yale corporation
will elect a president. In the mean-
while anxiouspapers will have to wait.
MNew Britain Herald.
The general opinion .will be that
Meigs H. Whaples was rather unjust in
his note denouncing the Law and Order
league. This was in reply to a request
for him to contribute sent him by See-
retary Thrasher.——New Britain News.
The unprecedented action of the
SouthINorwalk‘ common councilmen, in
raising the police chief’s pay to $3 a
day has aroused the people of the town
to a realizing sense of the fast that her
most pressing need at present is a‘luna-
tic asylum. In pursuance of that idea,
a big delegation of N orwalkers will go
to Hartford next month to put in an ap-
Dlication for one—New Haven News.
It is claimed that it‘ will take $10,000-
000 more to meet the American claims
against Spain for destruction of prop-
erty. If the claimants should have to
wait as long as the holders of the
French claims have had to, the bill will
nbt annoy this generation 01‘ the next.
——Norwich Bulletin. -
There is some municipal politics in
the air along with the sleet here in
Connecticut. Bridgeport and Danbury
held primaries last night and they are
preparing for one of the Old fashioned
squabbles in New Haven. As far as
New Britain is concerned there is not
much stir on the surface as yet. This
does not mean that there will be any
difficulty in securing persOns to fill the
offices—New Britain Herald.
The fighting among the admirals over
the Santiago campaign is getting hot.
It is disgraceful that they do not recog- '
nize that it is going to leave them with
tarnished reputatiohs. They will do
well to stop before it is impossible to
steer clear of the wrecks—New London
Telegraph.
Governor Lounsbury’s Fast Day Iprce-
lamation is all that such a document
‘should be, and the fact that now nolaw
compels observance of the suggestions
made makes it none the less timely and
appropriate. To-day the obligation is a
moral one, formerly it was legal also,
but it was no more binding then, than
now.—Bridgeport Standard.
A half-starved negro who stole a
few coins from a museum to get some-
thing to cat was sentenced to two years
at hard labor by a Philadelphia judge
the other day. It is unfortunate that
magistrates who believe in administer-
ing justice in large doses are generally
identified with cases of this kind while
the thugs, highwaymen and wifebeat-
era are looked after by the courts who
believe that justice should be tempered
,' with mercy. Quaker ideas of justice
sometimes find a. parallel in this Istwate
THE PALMIST’S' REVENGE.
How Lenka. Turned the Tables on
on Irasoible Sooner “7110 An-
‘ noyed Him.
The latest adept in palmistry to ex-
cite attention in New York is a young
man named Laska, who is said to have
created a furor in: certain cultured cir-
cles. Laska is an interesting character,
and by no means unknown in New Or-
leans, says the Times-Democrat. He
stayed several weeks in this city a few
years ago, andgave numerous private
exhibitions of his skill, at one of Whi°h~
a little incident occurred which is re-
called with much amusement by every—
body who witnessed it. Among thdse
present on the occasion referred- tO was
a gentleman who regarded palmistry
as an out-.and-out humbug and took no
pains to conceal his opinion. His com-
ments as the hand reading proceeded
were uncomfortably candid, and it was
easy to see that Laska was having diffi-
culty in-holding his temper in leash.
His black eyes blazed, but he made no
retort, and finally toward the close of
the evening somebody proposed t-hathe
try his powers on the skeptic.
The gentleman was rather reluctant,
but he finally allowed himself to be per-
‘ suaded and stepped forward with out-
stretched hand. , Laska glanced at the
open palm, and an expression of
mingled horror and pity overspread his
mobile face. For the first time he
seemed to lose his self-control, and in
apparently deep agitation he stam-
mered out: “I would rather read this
hand in private.” '
The effect which the announcement
produced may be imagined, and the
party broke up amid much embarrass-
ment. The skeptical gentleman was
extremely indignant, but Laska de—
parted smiling quietly to himself. He
had had. his revenge.

Climate”?! 'ShnTiag’o’ Province.
Joseph E. Chamberlain, 01' the Bos-
ton Transcript, who went through the
Santiago campaign, writes»: “It can.
truly be said forthe ‘deadly Cuban cli—
mate,’ which we mad-e deadly by the
way we lived in it, that all troubles- of
the respiratory organs—asthma; ca-
tarrh-s. coldly, bronchitises, and that.
sort of thing—disappeared into the
thin, sweet, sea-swept air of the San~
tiago mountain province as soon aswe
got there. There were some of us who
felt as if we had never breathed a. per—
fectly free breath before we climbed
those green hills, as yet unpolluted by
war. I wonder where else men. who
had been for yeursntaking colds at the
slightest provocation could have slept
one cold night after another on damp
ground and in clothes and boots sat-
urated by rainstorms and by the ford~
ing of rivers, and never have taken
cold‘. at all? As to malaria, I think it
is capable of proof that there'is more
of it in eastern Massachusettin-han
there is in Santiago province? "

E. Hart. of Groton, S. D. : “Was taken
with a bad cold which settled on my
lungs; cough set in and finally termi-
nated in Consumption. Four Doctors
gave me up, saying I could live but a
short time. I gave myself up to my
Savior. determined/ifl could not stay
with my friends on earth, I would meet
my absent ones above. My husband
was advised to get Dr King’s New
Discovery for Consumption. Coughs
and Colds. I gave it a trial, took 1n all
eight bottles. It has cured me. and
thank God, I am saved and am now a
well and healthy woman.” Trial bot-
