A STATE HOUSE QUESTION.


 New Haven cannot exclusively possess all the good things. To be sure, other place can have Yale college, Center church East Rock park. But the State House question is not confined to this locality. They have a State House question in Massachusetts and especially in the Boston part of Massachu- setts.
 Some iconoclasts have arisen in Boston and proposed to destroy the old State House, so that a new one can be built on it's site. Their Argument ia that the present building is too small for all the needs of the State govern ment, and it is not SO convenient in other ways, or so elegant more modern struc- ture would be and as the State House of such State as Massachusetts ought to be. The State House is not large enough to contain all the rooms and offices required by the State government and therefore the State owns and occupies other buildings near at hand. But those who want the old State House saved argue that it is not necessary that all the departments of the government should be housed under one roof. At Wash ington the United States has many buildings scattered about the city at considerable dis tances from each other. At Boston, it is as- serted, land could be bought and buildings erected, if needed, in the immediate vicinity of the State House for much less than new State House would cost, and so near that very little practical inconven fence would be caused by the fact that some of the offices were not in the State House itself.
 But all this is prosaio. The old Worcester Spy continues the argument in way that will delight all the ''town born" of Massachusetts and win the approval of all the town born of New Haven who hap pen to read this. Says the Spy: The State House is well proportioned, dignifed and beautiful, fitting crown to the hill on which it stands. It was nobly designed and we'll built A new one might possibly be good in these respects, but we could not hope that it would be better. It certainly would not have for many years the associations which the present building has, giving it value which the people of the State would not sacrifice. Those who regard the State House simply as mass of stone and brick piled together in an old-fashioned way, and fit only to be torn down to make way for some architectural phantasy of the new est new school, are perhaps the same, cer- tainly no better, than the official vandals who, a few years ago, dug down the redoubts built by Washington's army on the High lands at Roxbury, which would have stood for thousand years, and put up in their place neat and really elegant little stone inscribed 'tOn this spot" and 80 forth.
 Good for the Spy. The State House at Boston is a little more useful and in little better condition than our Grecian Temple, but the principle seems to be the same.

He had 8 tele- graph instrument rigged up in his office and Manager Brooks recommended young Car negie, and he was employed. He showed such aptitude in managing the movement of trains by telegraph that he was transfer- red to the superintendents office in Altoona. There he continued to attract the attention of Thomas A.

My little son. aged eight years, has been afflicted with Eczema of the scalp. and at times great DOT tion of the body, ever since he was two years old.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Nicaragua canal project again sticks up. The condition of the Panama canal scheme is not encouraging to any similar plan.
 It is gratifying to see the statement that company of the Massachusetts militia refused to ride in some boycotted horse cars contra dicted. If the statement were true it would be pretty serious matter.
 The revised statutes of the United States do not contain any comfort for boycotters. In them it is provided that person convict ed of conspiracy to deprive any citizen of the free exercise of any of the privileges secured to him by the constitution is liable to fine of five hundred dollars and imprisonment for not more than ten years.
 What is the matter with the Boston girls or the Boston schoolsa At the annual meet ing of the Massachusetts Medical society, held in Boston this week, the orator of the occasion, in speaking of the home and school education of girls, said: "A justly distin- guished master of the Girls High and Nor nal school in this city is reported to have said that a principal qualification for the office he held should be good medical edu cation. The first hour of his school day was spent in going from room to room, at the call of teachers, to see pupils who had faint ed or vomited or were in spasms or hyster- ics." This is truly painful condition of affairs
 NJ. Pasteur himself thinks he has done pretty well in his fight against hydrophobia, whatever may be the opinion of skeptics. He reports that the number of persons inoculat- ed for hydrophobia up to April was $50, of whom 912 were bitten by mad dogs and thirty three by wolves, and the patients of the first category, with the single exception of little girl, were doing we'll. Six deaths have occurred among those who have been inoculated, without including this little girl. Of these six cases five were Russians bitten by wolves and the other a woman bitten by mad dog, all of whom died of hydrophobia, and in whom also the wounds were of a grave nature.

The French Journal Oficiel publishes some interesting facts concerning the num- Der of applications for divorce made between the 27th of July, 1884, the day on which di- vorce was re-established in France, and the 31st of December of the same year. During that period l ,773 divorce cases came before the Divorce court, but out of that total l. ,649 cases were for the transformation of legal separations into decrees of divorce. Not withstanding the adoption of divorce, the number of demands for legal separations in 1884 was not so much smaller as might have been anticipated. In that year there were 3,660 demands for separation, whereas in 1883 there were 3,714.

s. MAYER.
The subject of this sketch is one Of
the prominent and representative Ger
man citizens Of our city. He was born
in Hohenstrather in 1874, being now AZ
years of age. He came to America in
1866, when he was 20 years Of age, to
seek his fortune in the land of the
free, and enjoy that liberty nowhere
else to be found on the globe. Sixteen
years ago he came to Texas, fifteen OF
which he has spent in Dallas Being a
brewer by trade, he began work max
ing beer for Mr. Chas. Meisterhans.
After the brewery closed down he be-
gan driving beer wagon, delivering
the fluid to saloons This occupation
he followed four years and half,
when he started business on his own
account, running saloon. Making
money, which he was always wise and
prudent enough to save, he in 1881 es-
tablished his present place, "Mayer's
Garden" lie built handsome, strik-
ing edifice 50x9O feet, three stories
high, and attached to which he has a
garden, a popular resort in the sum-
mer of the bon ton and elite of the
city to hear the summer concerts. In
the garden he has a fine geological and
pathological collection, which makes
it very attractive place. Mr.. Mayer
has never held any eflice. and has
never asked for one at the hands of
the people. He 10 member of the
Turn Verein, Frohsinn, Knights of
Honor, Odd Fellows Encampment and
Red Men, and has filled various sta
tions in these civic orders. Mr.. Mayer
10 gentleman of wealth, and is pre-
eminently a representative man among
our German fellow citizens. He is Of
untiring energy, practical business
man, enterprising and liberal, and is
always on hand to further any interest

Church Services.

All the churches were seemingly
well attended yesterday. At the fore.
noon service at the Baptist church
Rev. r. c. Buckner preached an able
and most interesting sermon on the
subject of the christian letting his light
so shine that others could we'll see 1t
and profit thereby. He had q full
house to hear him.
At the Presbyterian church q large
audience turned out to hear DR.. A. P.
Smiths sermon on the Observance of
the Sabbath day. 1t was a sermon
adapted to the consideration and ap-
proval of members of all churches and
to non protesting christians as well.
1t was an exhaustive and elaborative
disquisition upon the subject, it being
treated in an analytical, logical and
Rhetorical way. 1t was full of earnest
ness and pathos and had an excellent
effect on all who heard it.
The First Presbyterian church yes
terday afternoon organized Mission
Sunday school at the corner of San
Jacinto and Hall streets, with Capt.
J. M. Mccoy as superintendent, nine
teachers and fifty pupils. They meet
every Sunday evening at 8 o'clock.
At the First Methodist church in the
morning was large congregation, and
it was plain that they enjoyed the able
and practical sermon of Rev. w. p.
Wilson, on the "Acceptation of Christ"
from the text "Christ came into the
world to save sinners, Of whom l am
the chief" Paul's letter to Timothy,
first chapter. Mr.. Wilson is rapidly
growing in popularity and usefulness
as he becomes acquainted with our
people. Mr.. Wilson accepted diff
cult work when he agreed to fill the
unexpired term of the lamented Gen.
Lewis, bat well has he succeeded, and
there are many here who earnestly
hope that the First Church will have
his excellent pastoral services the COM
ing year.

The Royal Stud

A correspondent Of Londss zSsah
writes: As you have often asked for
information about the royal stud at
Hampton court, the following particu.
lars of its history may be interesting:
The stud was established by the prince
regent about 1918, with the object of
breeding saddle-horses, all of which
were to be gray an idea which was
evidently drawn from Herrenhausen.
AS soon az the prince assembled the
throne he sold the stud, and lent the
paddocks to the duke of York. who kept
his stud there, and it was managed by
Mr.. Charles Greville. In 1927 the
duke died and the stud was sold, and
George Nv. then occupied Inc place
with new stud, which was managed
by Mr.. Define Radcllf. When George
Nv. died his successor kept on the stud,
which was sold few months after the
death of William w., when seventy
seven lots realized upward of f16,500.
The paddocks passed to Queen Adelaide
ION whom Bushey had been settled as
dower-house), and she let them to Gen.
Peel and Mr.. Charles Grevlle, who
kept their studs there for nearly thirty
years. The present royal stud was es-
tablshed by the prince consort in 1851.
and for years past it has been under
the charge Of Col. Maude. who has
managed it very badly and very extrav-
agantly. The whole thing is an alb
surdity and job, and the queen would
be we'll advised to get rid of it alto
gether, in which case n great deal OF
money would be saved, and the pad
docks could be thrown into the adjacent
park and placed at the service of the
public.
