 THE ALCOHOLIC TEXT BOOK.
 HARTFORD Conn, May 1.-The State Boatd of Education must prepare a text book under the new law requiring instruction in the public schools as to the effect of alcoholic and narcotic poisons in time for the fall term, beginning in September. An examination of books already in print convinees the board that they are not of a character suited to present requirements, and this is especially true of nearly all American limits of reason and truth in many phases of the question. Some of these books are merely an ex- pression of the radical views of extremists and ex- clude all scientific knowledge There are few works upon hygiene and physiology and cover the whole question: but they are adapted to the un deretanding of adults. Such book as the Connec- ticut law evidently designs must be elementary Tn character It is for in common schools, and a school age upon which enumeration of scholars is made is between four and sixteen years. It goes without saying, therefore, that beyond certain limits, Tn the preparation of a text book, the State board cannot go and compliSh the object of the law There has been some talk of employing competent man to com pile the work, but probably the board will be able among it's own members to produce something which will be all that IS necessary. Very soon some plan will be formulated But after the text book ready for delivery it will be optional with school visitors of to put it in not, because the law though styled a compulsory act has no penalty attached for it's violation.

Deacon Limburner, who has worked on the farm and in the shop, who has been an emplOye and eln- ployer, and who never worked for an employer whose interest he did not seek to SubServe as if his own, working over time even without compe9satio2n and who has succeeded in all enterprises undertak- by him in the of his capital, spoke last evening in the Congregational church lecture room most intelligently and instructively on the labor question One may infer how he spoke since he said at the opening of his address: Were 1 to speak before an organization of the Knights of La bor or before the organized anarchists of Chicago should expect to note signs of disapprobation of some things might say. This is the best land that the laborer ever lived in. He is subject and sovereign at the time. In our cities he enjoys the greatest of privileges at the of the cap
 taSt. In Boston large class Of taxpayers or moderate means, who pay for instance, twenty five dollars annually, receive in school privileges alone twenty seven dollars annually from the large real estate owners Organized labor, that on pub lie exhibition is not only uncalled for, but 1t has already greatly damaged the laborers themselves, calling for money for their support in idleness, rob ping of their own families of bread, throwing one another out of employment and forcing capi- talists to resort to measures in their own defense that can but be detrimental to more or less wage workers compared with their present pay. Bet ter that the individual make his own contracts without the intervention of the walking delegate. The deacon spoke dignfedly and showed by his @tterances that he master of the subject and had given it candid and serious consideration.

The Unfortunate Shad.

STAMFORD, Conn.,, May 15.-The shad fishery in the Housatonic river is dwindling in importance and it is generally believed here that unless something is done to save it it will disappear altogether. Two causes for the present state of things are given. One is the dam across the river at Birmingham, which, for want of an effective fshway, pre- vents the shad from working up the stream for any great distance and cuts them off from some of the best stretches in the river. The other is the presence of acids turned into the stream fir n the factories and mills on it's banks This results in the wholesale slaugh- ter of the young shad and it is asserted that millions of the fish are killed by the acids every year. The State Fish Commissioners have devoted much time to
 II attempt to find way out of the first diff culty, but they have not yet been very sue cessful. Recently they examined a 6shway on the Potomac from which great things were expected, but it proved to be very costly affair, and it is doubtful if one like it will be built at Birmingham. There is public demand that something should be done to save the shad fishery, but just what that something shall be is hard to tell. The recent storms did great deal of damage to the pounds at Saybrook at the mouth of the Connecticut river, and it is stated that the shad catch there will prove unusually light this season as a result.
