 V. Stuart Mosby wrote 8 very pathetic poem entitled "After the Battle" It told of two brothers-one a ''blue, the other a "gray." The former was shot in battle by the latter.

JUST before he was hanged yesterday, Happy Bob' Van Brunt told of his con- nection with the Salvation army, and said he owed his fate in great part to the fact that he had been member of that organi- zation. The excitement, he said was more than he could stand. There is no doubt but Van Brunt spoke the truth. The Sal vation army possesses a frenzical fasci- nation for certain phases of weak minds, while it's internal workings are known to be immoral The Salvation army should be squelched as nuisance.

THE Boston Journal, which takes it's re- publicanism straight, no matter how strong the dose, has the candor to say that it will not do for the party to depend upon old jokes and passive opposition to counteract the effect of the Mills bill. It suggests that the best, and, indeed, the only, means of offsetting the democratic measure would be the introduction of an 'explicit and symmetrical republican bill." When a high tariff defender like the Journal begins to acknowledge the necessity for some re- form, it looks as though it had lost faith in the efficacy of bowling free trade and ruin at all tariff reformers.

WHILE Senator Platt, of this state, was making prosy speech in favor of his bill to admit South Dakota as state, the other day, Delegate Clifford, of Dakota, who was sitting on one of the comfortable lounges in the rear of the Senate chamber, fell into deep sleep and snored audibly, not waking until the Senator had finished his speech. Mir. Clifford was one of the victims of the deadlock, and doubtless needed rest so badly that he was unable to honor with his attention the speech which he had come over to the Senate purposely to hear.

The Hartford correspondent of the Springfield Republican asserts that Hon. Morgan c. Bulkeley stands a remarkably good chance now, not only for being nominated for governor when the state convention meets, but of being elected next fall. He reads the signs of the times alright, and the same belief exists among republicans throughout the state.-Willimantic Journal
 That same belief has existed for several years in certain quarters of the republican camp MT. Bulkeley may receive the nomination, that is neither here nor there with the democrats, but he will never be elected by the popular vote. Connecticut's rotten borough system of representation may once more thwart the will of the peo- pie, if that's what the republican cores pondent means.

A STORY is reported from Texas, but lacks verifcation, that one of the men recently bitten by the mad wolf that bit MT. Chamberlain who is now in Paris, under Pasteur's treatment, has become wild and taken to the woods. The cow boys are hunting the man, so the story goes, but have thus far been unable to run run him down. It is said that he entered a ranchman's shanty, and literally tore a six year old child to pieces.

PROBABLY not one man in hundred would make the desperate fight for life,
 against such odds, that Roscoe Conkling is making. One chance in a hundred the physicians said he had for his life two days ago.
