Here is u journalistic biography. con-
densed from Max Adeler in the Danbury
Noes: Colonel Bangs. the editor Of the
Morning -irgus. became journalist be-
cause he couldn't help it. Shortly after he
was born. the doctor ordered that the baby
should BE- fed on goats milk. This wss
procured from n goat In the rear of the
Office of the Weekly Starter. and fed chiefly
upon the exchanges which came to that
Journal The consequence was that young
Bangs was ted entirely upon milk that was
formed from digested newspapers. and he
throve on 1t, although when the Irish
woman mixed the Democratic Journals
carelessly with the Wing papers. they dis.
agreed af.er they were eaten. and the milk
gave the baby the collie. Old Bangs in.
tended the boy to he q minister; hut
as soon as he was old enough to take
notice, he cried iOr every newspaper that
he happened to see. He ran away from
school four times to enter a newspaper Of.
fee as Devil. and finally when old Bangs
pu: him in the House of Refuge, he started
q weekly in there. and called il the House
Of REFUGE Record: and one dav slid over
the wall, and went down to the Era Office,
where he changed his name to Whangs, and
began his career on that paper with an ar.
ricle on ..Our Ref0rmatory Institutions for
the Young Then old Bangs surrendered
to what seemed to be combination Of
manifest d. stiny and goats milk. and per.
mitted him to pursue his profession. Bat
you would hardly believe this story it you
ever read the argus. often suspect. when
J am looking over that sheet. that the
nurse used to mix the goats milk with an
unfair proportion of water.

Al eaiutss DAY.

Tho fret day OF November is dedicated
by tho living to revere the memery of our
dead. Graves and tombs Of departed
friends will to-day receive kindly attention
from loving hearts and hands. Blooming
mementoes viii contribute to revive sacred
memories Of the past, and the quick may
thoughtfully care for the cold homes Of de-
parted relatives. Sensitive flesh and
pulsating blsod can prove its gratitude in
silent devotions for the remains Of those
who were once part OF q beloved household,
whose seats at the home Preside are nov
forever vacated. List tokens Of affectio n
be gently laid on tho graves of our dead.
With bowed heads aud humble spirits let
our minds turn toward the great hereafter.
in the hope that earthly Establishments will
assist to make us better and holief foI du-
ties before us.
