SPECIAL CHRISTMAS MUSIC

In The Various Churches-Fine Pro. grammes-Christmas Trimmings In The churches.
 For weeks past the choirs of the various churches in this city have been rehearsing appropriate music to sing on Christmas day. The Congregational churches will not hold services on Christmas day, which comes on Saturday, but will have special music on Sunday; but the Episcopal and Roman Catholic churches will hold services to-day.
 A&Trinity Church.
 At Trinity church, which has been hand somely trimmed, though not as elaborate aa usual, services will be held morning and evening. The boy choir, under the direc tion of Organist Hedden, have prepared much appropriate music, but the exact pro- gramme will not be published in advance.
 At St. Paups.
 Services will be held at St. Paul's at 10:3( this morning. The programme by the fine quartette and choir of the church will be one Of the finest ever given at this church, and will, judging from the interest already talk. en in the event by the congregation and friends, be listened to by very large con. gregation. The quartette choir consists of Miss Nora Russell, soprano; Miss Adelaide Phelps, contralto; William H. Brown. ten or; Winthrop G. Bushnell, bass, and cho- rus of fourteen. Miss Phelps, who has been seriously i'll for over month, is much bet ter, and is expected to take her place in the choir. Miss Sanford will accompany upon the harp, both at the Christmas service and on Sunday, when the programme will be re- peated. Festival music will be given at the Sunday evening service. The organist and director is Professor s. Roland Ford. The full programme is as follows:
 Anthem" m-"Nazareth'-Gounod arranged by Buck Venite-VIII. Tone.
 Gloria Patri D) Mosenthal Gloria Patri (A)..-' Mosenthai Festival 'Te Deum'' Buck Hymn Angels From The Realms Warren aioria aEaas1nSpri TiSimFestival, sa F
 Offertory-"Hail Christmas Morn".... .Gounod Sanctus-Tours.
 St. Thomas Church.
 The Christmas trimming and decorations at St. Thomas are certainly very beautiful and perhaps the finest ever seen at this church, which not infrequently at Christmas time wears a beautiful dress of evergreen. The arrangement is very tasteful and com plete and should be seen by all to be fully appreciated. The interior or the cnQrcn IS profusely decorated with evergreen. Around the entire auditorium is bank of hoHy and evergreen. At the corners stand evergreen trees and ropes of evergreen hang in graceful festoons on the walls. Over the chancel hangs ring of green, around the outer edge of which appears the inscription:
 ''Thou art the same and thy years shall fail. ,.
 In the open center of the circle will burn star formed by gas jets. An appropriate programme of Christmas music will be fur nished.
 At St. Johns
 There will be a specially excellent musical programme morning and evening at St.John's Episcopal church. The church is beautifully trimmed from one end to the other with graceful curves of evergreen cable and bushes of evergreen, and the front about the chsncel is particularly fine. The morning service at this church will be as follows: on h.

NEW HAVEN TEACHER.

Her Splendid Christmas Surprise-A
 Touch of ROmance-A Surprising
 DenouemEnt Becomes Suddenly
 Wealthy.
 A New Haven resident writes to the CoUR- TER as follows:
 Without doubt one of the teachers in our public schools is exceedingly happy owing to the fact of having become quite wealthy. Several years ago this young lady, whose name we will not mention, was presented with deed of several acres of wild land To- cated in Michigan by man who was almost a stranger to her, but to whom she had ren- dered kindness. The deed was laid one side and the circumstances connected with the case almost forgotten when but few days ago she received a letter from parties wishing to purchase the property. Upon inquiry it was learned that large lead mine had been discovered on the premises. There has been no sale effected of the property, but the mine is of such value as to place the owner, who but few days ago felt depend ent on her salary for support, in 8 position of independence. The Board of Education will soon be called upon to act upon the res- ignation of one of it's faithful employees.

 A Standing Invitation.
 I have no more time to write advertise ments of holiday goods, nor is it necessary. Everybody knows where Cutters Art Store is. Everybody knows it contains the most va ried and choice stock of photographs, etch, ings, engravings, brio a-brac in china, glass, porcelain, brass and other desirable wares. Everybody knows that the stock this year is more attractive and more attractively dis played than ever before. Therefore, I sim ply wish to extend cordial invitation to all to come and see my stock, with ths assur- snce that no one will be importuned to buy, that every effort within the power of myself and my clerks will be made to wait upon my visitors, and that any failure will be simply because the demand has thus far exceeded my expectations.
 Very respectfully, d23 St EvARTs CUTLER.

BLAINE BEGINS.

The Democrats will not be sorry that
Blaine has opened the campaign for The
Republicans and given formal notice
that lie is still an applicant for the Pre-
sidential prize; that IS % say, the Demo-
Gratis will not be sorry unless the Maine
politician shall be able to find sufficient
OF incompetency and weakness in the
Democratic administration TO enable
him 70 present an indictment against
the party and sustain it with convicting
evidence. In his opening speech, re-
ported in Wednesdays HERALD. Blaine
came very near to doing this same dis
astrous thing when he touched upon
Bayard's treatment Of the fisheries
question last spring. and referred to
Atne course of the Secretary OF
State in the present dispute
with Mexico over Editor Cutting
Congress may help Bayard out
in the fisheries matters, but it Is Difficult
to comprehend how the Secretary can
be extricated from the difficulty into
which be has plunged over this Mexican
business. Bayard's haste has led him
into a position where he can neither ad-
vance nor recede with credit TO himself
or the nation. He demanded the i'm
mediate release Of Cutting, but Mexico
paid no attention to the demand, going
along in its own way, conyicting the
editor, sending him TO prison, and
finally, in accordance with its own laws,
setting him at liberty. II Bayard were
right in his demand, there would be
clear sailing in the matter; the United
States would have simply 10 punish
Mexico, thing which could be readily
performed; but if it should turn out that
Bayard was hasty and in error as now
seems likely, the laugh would be turned
against this government, and the
Democrats would have to unload and
repudiate Mr.. Bayard, or carry and
indorse him 10 their great distress. All
the Democrats have to fear from Blaine
is that they will be guilty OF plumbers
which he will transform into political
crimes. Without such plumbers Blaine
will prove a blessing to the Democracy
in that he will be an easy man to beat
The majority of the Republican party
may be with Blaice, but very respect
able minority is IS bitterly opposed to
him as it was in 1854, and this latter
will be more certain to unite with the
Democracy for his defeat, the more
is his fight for success.

GLADSTONE STARTED fer Germany
yesterday, accompanied by Mrs. Glad
stone and his daughter for three
weeks vacation, which means rest and
recuperstion for the great commoner,
which will prepare him all the better
for his struggle in behalf of suffering
Erin. 1t is understood that he has
arranged 10 return immediately if his
presence should be absolutely needed.
So that the Tory mice need not hatter
themselves that they can cut any
fantastic capers because the Liberal
cat is away.

TIE STREET CAR troubles in New YORK
do not at present promise to b. very
serious unless the striking workmen are
reinforced by other strikers from othe r
lines. The movements Of the striking
car men yesterday were indecisive. and
the policemen had them under control.
The experience Of the workingmen the
past summer with strikes will have a
tendency to make the wage workers
timid, though in this matter the
street car employees are right in pro-
testing against the action of the sarface
railway employees.

ACCORDING TO Poor's Manual the
capital stock and funded and floating
debts Of railroads in this country aggre-
gate over 100000 900. In 1885, the
mileage was lbs ,967, of which s, l3I miles
wese -baDt during the year. The net
earnings amounted to 500, ass, soS, or
about percent. on the debts and capt.
tai stock The Manual gives other inter
esting Ggures and facts. More than
9,00o,0o9,oo0 passengers we're carried
one mile, and the average distance
Travelled by each passenger was twenty
six miles. 1t is also said that
only abo1t one-fourth Of tie
gross earnings OF railroads comes
from passenger traffic. and more than
two-thirds from freight. For every
passenger carried mile five tons of
freight were carried the same distance.
The figures show that railroads as 3
rule are not at all profitable invest
ments, notwithstanding the fact that
there is not to-day in the Union rail-
way that is not denounced as robber.
The money in railroads if invested in
almost any other legitimate business,
would Be more remunerative to the
owners.

IeAHo POLITICS.

The political fight in Idaho this fall is
going 70 be very interesting one. 1t
viii at least be quadrangular, and at
this early day it is utterly impossible TO
do more than indefinitely guess as to
the outcome. The Republicans in the
southern part of the Territory have ap-
parently surrendered themselves into
the hands of Fred Dubois, late United
States Marshal, who is DESTROYS of
goi7g to Congress. Dubois knows that
II is idle to expect enough Republican
votes to'elect him, hence he has put out
a bid for Democrats who hate the Nor
nOns. There is an anti-Mormcn party
the Territory Of which the ex-
Marshal Is the head, and this he
IDS manipulating in his interest. On
the other hand the Republicans
IN the northwest are opposed to
Dubois, and they are not particularly
interested IN the Mormon question;
hence it is doubtful if the ambitious car
Pet-bagger will be able to get them into
the ranks, even should he succeed in
getting his Republican-auti-M Mormon
party to nominate him. The straight
out Democrats are more worried than
any others. They permitted the passage
OF the test oath law which attempts to
disfranchise the MormOns; some of
them now claim that they confidently
expected the law would be a, once de-
'clared unconstitutional. when the party
would get credit for opposing the Nor
mons without losing the Mormon vote, |
which amounts to 1000 or 5000 in the |
Territory and has always been cast fo-
the Democratic ticket. The courts have
not declared the law invalid, and as q
consequence the Democrats are wonder
ing how it will be possible for them to
elect without the Mormon votes.
The Dubois clique fears the Nor.
mons will vote in spite Of the
law. Meantime the Mormons are
going along attending to their business
as usual. They neither assert nor deny
that they viii vote. but it Is presumed
they will loose none Of their political
rights which can be lawfully held.
The Democratic party of Idaho has
been manipulated and managed dur
ing-t the past six years in such a way as
70 deserve defeat and destruction, and
decent people would not complain if
ouch a fate would overtake it were it
not for the fact that defeat means the
1pecess Of the mongrel organization
which setsitself up in opposition. In
and cowardiy as the Demo
Gratis have been, they are not rs bad as /,
Lbe-gsng presided over by Dubois.

SoIT appears that the Bulgarian rev.
olution is one of those revolutions that
fails to reyolutioRize. Those engage
in it may well begin TO tremble. In
stead of being patriots in the estimation
of their countrymen, as they doubtless
would have been haR the plot succeeded,
they stand very good chance of being
hung fer treason. Already the loyalists
have captured two of the members
prominent in the new government and
cast them into prison. What exssper-
ated both the soldiers and citizens ap-
pears to be the falsehood the revolution-
ists told them in relation TO Alexande,
Indicating of his own free will. The
revolutionists took desperate chances
when they undertook to deceive the
people. Revolution at its best, when it
has right on its side, and honor in its
purposes, has a hard time fighting its
way to success; but when il leans OF
and treachery Tor support, it
is bound TO fail aud it ought to TAIL. +

full city will not be without at least one
place where our refined and respectable

mentS that will add greatly TO making
our city lively BY bringing the old and
