During q famous trial some years
since, soon after lager" found its way
to America, evidence was introduced
to show that the beverage was not in

until the climax was reached in wor-
thy descendant OF "old King Cole,
who claimed an ability to dispose of
sixty glasses at q single sitting. The
advocates of total abstinence stood
aghast at the disclosure. while even
the moderate drinkers retreated in dis

chief makers as well as chief drinkers

to this modern King Cole, 'cheers but

Literary and Art Associations al
Hartford


Alert intelligence and varied activity
have always characterized Hartford,
and a local vein of literature is trace
able from the close of the revolution
down. Here that group of writer's AS
sembled that made a reputation under
the name of the Hartford wits: John
Irumbull, author of .,McFinCal,n the
ponderous mock-hcroic poem of the
war of independence Timothy
Dwight who produced an epic on
''IheConquest of Canaan and joel
Barlow, whose "Columbiadh has sue
cessfully resisted the authors attempt
to install it among the worlds classics.
Lesser lights who co-operatcd with
these in satirical illusions that had
political value. were Lemuel Hopkins.
David Humphreys, and Richard Alsop.
The house of Mrs. Sigourney is still
standing, and her bust may be seen in
the rooms of the Historical Society: it
has serene expression, as if the orig
inal had never suffered from that in
fiction which her poems imposed on
the rest of the world. Here, too,
Noah Webster lived. thought out his
impossible etymologies, aud compiled
his dictionary. s. 5. Goodrich, who
employed Hawthorne in his early days
to write the Peter Farley geography,
and then published it as his own, was a
resident of Hartford; so was the disap-
pointed poet James Perez vii. Edmund
Clarence Stedmau, who so Immortality
sang John Brown, and has given US
the best book of criticism upon the
Victorian poets, came from Hartford;
and one OF its later representatives in
current literature is Mr.. Bishop, the
new novelist The town is plentifully
supplied with arsenals for future au-
thors in its several libraries, which
have made sort of treaty with one
another to follow out special lines, in
order not to conflict The Hartford is
a popular subscription concern, which
supplies the reading Immediately in
demand; the State library at the Capt.
tol is chiefly devoted to law, in which
its collections are peculiarly complete,
including many rarities. At Trinity
College the library is especially strong
in classics; the Theological Institute
embraces religious and archaeological
works; and the Watkinson gives its
attention more to general literature of
a standard sort. The Historical Soci-
ETY., too, has special accumulation of
its own. Together, they contain some
thing over 4 hundred thousand vol
umes. In artistic development the
city has not been so forward. The
Wadsworth Athcn1um Gin the same
building with which are the Hartford,
the Watkinson, and the Historical Ii
braries) contains few old pictures;
among them some interesting land
scapes by Thomas Cole, and Il portrait
of Benjamin West by Sir Joshua; but
the institution appears to be lifeless.
A branch OF the Decorative Art Soci-
ETY., however, has lately been establish
ed; and Hartford has produced several
painters who have gained good
standing: Gedney Buncc, the colorist,

The editor of the Toledo Blade ("Nas-
by speaks as follows OF Captain Bush.
neli's reply to Mr. Thompson, and states
the present situation as to Prohibition in
Ohio very clearly and correctly:
Chairman Bushnells reply is a strong doc
ument, and demolishes the pretense that such
an issue s before the people The simple fact ia,
that the election OF the Leonard ticket would
not advance the cause OF constitutional prohi-
btion in Ohio one iota. Neither the Govern
or nor all the State officers can do anything
to advance or retard the cause. The only men
to he elected this tall who will have the power
to even touch the question are the members
OF the General Assembly. The thing sought
for is prohibitory amendment to the State
constitution. To amend that instrument, a
vote of the people is required, and this can
not be had unless the legislature passes $ a res.
olu,on submitting the amendment to the
people. The constitution also provides tina, "A
vote on such proposition can only be taken
at a general election for State officers and
members of the General Assembly. Conse-
quently, such a proposition cannot be voted
on until the fall OF 1887; and the Legislature
to be elected this fall cannot do more than to
submit the proposition to the people.

APPLES,

Apples have come again That is to
say liteless little bits of fruit, so-called,
which are alleged or supposed to be apples
But Adam and Eve would never have
been bounced from Paradise for eating
them; for, in the first place, they would
have proved to be no temptation; and in
the second place, no doubt the Creator
would have considered the simple act of
eating them if they we're eaten, sufficient
punishment for the first and only act Of
disobedience up to that time.
The unfortunate people who live in
towns do not know much about apples.
Only those so happy as to live in the
country, and near orchards, know the d.
vine fragrance and the imperial beauty of
apple blossoms in the Spring, or the
divine flavor Of pippns, and russets, and
greetings in the Fall. Fortunately, in the
Winter, we townspeople can get the latest
and best work OF sun, and atmosphere,
and soil in the compact, solid, crisp,
spicy winter apple, the king of fruits--the
American fruit of all others-the fruit the
Yankee longs for when in foreign lands
and the choicest OF tropical products have
palled upon his palate.
The banana is the only fruit in the world
at all worthy to rank with the apple as it,
as well as the apple is with us the year
round, The strawberry, the most delicious
Of fruits, is with us but for a season-iust
when it is needed, early in the spring,
when it puts its gentle, sweet acid into our
stomachs, renews our physical aud mental
frames, improves our morals, and leaves
US, like Oliver Twist, crying for more all
the year round But its reign il brief, at
best, and we must settle down upon apples
for permanent consolation Aud apples
abound in such infinite variety that each
may take his choice. And they are
wholesome as well as palatnble-- substan.
tial, flesh. makers and brain-builders, too,
we would fain believed
As to the juice Of apples separated from
the fruit--perhaps we had better say moth
ing until after the election. .u
Thoreau, the tramp, crank, poet and
philosopher-the glorious prophet Of Ma
ture-gave critical attention to apples. lie
discovered that it was the first Of the
fruits ~ well a. the finest and the best.
