 William Allen, one of the prison murderers, was taken to the State prison Saturday after noon. He was quite cheerful, and considers that his stay in Wethersfeld will be brief. He has influential friends, and he believes that the Legislature will pardon him in two or three years.
 Since his last trial he has had number of visitors to see him at the jail. and they express their sympathy for him.

Honors to a, OId Pastor,

The Winsted Herald says of much es- teemsd pastor, who numbers among his friends some of our best citizsns Rev. John H. Betts, of St. Johns Episcopal church in Pine Meadow, bids farewell to the scene of his long labor about the 1st of May and casts his lot in South Manchester, (Cheneyviiie), among new people in 0 new church. Mir. Belts came to New Hartford in 1919 when St. Johns parish was in it's infancy before the church edifice was built, when the regular services were held in Chapins Hall. He came from Norwalk, young unmarried man, though soon after he brought wife to his field of labor. In 1857 he dissolved his re- Iations with the Pine Meadow church and settled at Ballston, N. Y., where he remained until the spring of 1869, when in answer to 8 call of his old perishoners he returned to his Pine Meadow home, where he has remained until now. Rev. MT. Bstts may be said to be identified with New Hartford and it's people. Here, as prominent promoter of education and for many years president of the board of education, he is known to all who have at- tended the public schools for thirty years. Here as 8 beloved rector hs has seen those whom he has baptized in infancy grow up, and in turn present their own children into his hands for the same rite. He has among us seen those whom he found in the strength of maturity, grow old and pass to the other shore May the friends left behind be made good, with interest, within the gates he is about to enter.

Am Evil Which should be Abated.


 Many of our residents have experienced feelings akin to indignation at the situation in ! which they frequently find themselves placed at public entertainments. We refer to the class who take it for granted that eight o'clock means eight o'clock, and, right or wrong in- tend to find themselves seated at the hour fixed for the entertainment to begin. Having thus placed themselves in readiness to enjoy the programme the annoyance begins. The trouble may appear in the tramp, tramp of heavy, or perhaps aqueaky pair of shoes, or 1t may be in thela arrival of members of the fair sex. In the latter case the annoyance is perhaps increased by the necessity of the up- rising of whole line of people to give place to the late conner, and be it male or female, the annoyance is 8 serious drawback to the enjoyment of the programme. This would be endurable were it quickly over, but the evil is sometimes protracted for full half hour to the vsxatious inconvenience of many persons and the marring of tho effect of the entertainment. This infiction is in most cases wholly aratuitous, there not being the slightest proper reason for such tardiness, and 1t then amounts to an inexcusable neglect of the rights of the audience. Another fre- quent cause of complaint is injudicious and ill-timed applauding, which often results in the mistake on the part of the actors, singers or what not in supposing that the audience is unanimous in desiring a repetition of the part of the performance in question and con- repeating it. This is distinct from the cases where applause is bestowed as | satire or burlesque. Often from this cause are prolonged to a wearisome extent and the enjoyment of many is seriously | impaired. With 8 little improvement in these respects | gratitude would be aroused in the bosoms of | not few of our citizens proverbially patient | and long enduring.

We give the opinion for what it is worth, not knowing what data the view is based upon.
