lErHANY STUDENTS TAUGHT TO THINK
FOR THEMSELVES.

FOh THEMsELNEs'
In delivering the diplomas President
Woolery called attention to what had
been patent to all, that the class was one
well able to stand alone, as demonstrated
by its performances. There was no need
to gloss over anything. The quality of
the teaching might be gathered from the
efforts OF the class. Students at Bethany
were urged TO think for themselves and
to think, study and speak OF current
events in preference to the dry and stale.
The President said further, that he was
willing to rest on any one OF the class as
q sample OF what could be done Mt Beth
any.

Except for tho sectional feeling or the
sentimental interest, what matters it
whom the Chicago convention nomi-
mates? The candidates are all able men,
all honest men, all Republicans. Who
ever is the nominee he stands upon the
ringing and candid declaration OF prin-
ciples adopted by the convention on
Thursday. The campaign is one OF
measures, not men, on the Republican
side. That the people realize this and
that they propose to vote for measures,
not men, there is no scarcity OF signs.
OF such signs here is one:

We have often heard of young men steal
ing their sweethearts and running away to

have we heard of young lady stealing a
young man and running away to get mar
ried: A young lady from North Georgia
has been spending some time with friends
about five miles from here in theA.country,
and upon getting ready to go home she
eloped with one of our most prosperous
young farmers. The mans father hearing
what had been done became enraged and
forbade them ever gong to his house again.
The young couple not being satisfied to live
near took the cars here for the Lone Star
State. where they will made their home in
the future We don't blame the young
lady at all, because they have showing
only once in every four years, and think
they ought to make good use of that time.

The Old Palmetto Tree.
From, the Byltnsyick fGd) Journal.

from the bfhaSUtCk tJu.) JpuTFth'.
The palmetto is not only delightful vege-
table which can be used in all respects like
cabbage and caulifower, but it is very use
full in many respects. From its leaves the
incest hats and the best fans are made.
But the greatest use to which palmetto is
put is ia the shape of piling in constructing
docks. Pine and other woods are attacked
by worms in a few years, when brought in
contact with salt water, and for this reason
the frequent renewals are very expensive.
Palmetto, on the other hand, is not attacked
in this way and will last for years. The
palmetto Played very important part in
the revolutionary history of this country.
When the British feet made an attack upon
Charleston, it was confronted by flimsy-
looking wooden Notifications that seemed
to offer but feeble resistance. Every shot
that was fired into them, however, sunk
into the soft, spongy wood of the palmetto
without damaging the inmates in the slight
est. After keeping up the harmless bonn
bardment for some days the attack was
abandoned

THE wiseacres who predicted breach
 in the Catholic church as the outcome of the papal rescript are not having much to say just at present Archbishop Walsh, the spokesman of the vatican has explained
 the real nature of the rescript, which the enemies of Irishmen have been so hasty to acclaim, and after mature deliberation the Irish archbishops and bishops have declared that the decree contemplates not the slightest interference with politics. From the very first the DEMOCRAT advised the Irish and Catholic people of Waterbury that all would be right; while our learned contemporaries were explaining that the Irish people would not be dictated to from Rome ,and that wide breach would shortly occur between the Pope and his people. The decision of the Irish prelates has clearly annoyed the tory press of London. h. deed it was through this channel the rank lies concerning the rescript were first made public. Any movement to create dissen- s:ons in the Catholic church, they reason

Just What a whanr h.

In the wisdom of the ages there has come to be something in 2 name. A good house wife in a suburb of Lewiston, whose reputa- tion is of thrift, and whose wits arc as keen as the razor's edge, issued cards not long ago, it is said, for an afternoon party It her home, terming it ''whang." A whang is an un- known term in that vicinity, although they had heard it employed in metaphoric or symbolic or hyperbolic sense many times to the country jubilee of various kinds. The good ladies who were summoned didn't know what to do or how to dress, but they went just tho same, full of curiosity, and in their most stunning toilettes. The hour was early viz, p. m.-when the larger part of them started. Bets were even against the field that it was a quilting bee, one to three that it was a rug bee, and even against the field that it was just an ordinary party. When they got there they found the house in disorder, and everybody scrubbing for dear life. 4 whang is a housekeeping party, and some of the ladies are sorry they didn't dress accordingly.

A Spring Announcement.

If you are desirous of making yourselves and friends happy, get just as many tickets as possible on those elegant Shoningert Pianos offered as an induce ment to trade, by the Waterbury Boot and Shoe Co.,, Edward. J. Finn, and Reed & Go. At the same time it is not best to really believe you are going to hold the lucky number until you are certain. Therefore do not delay purchasing but call at our store and see how low and on what easy terms the best known pianos in Waterbury can be bought. Merchants desire the best and most popular piano in order to improve their trade. They cannot afford to patronize small dealers, that is the reason they buy the Shoninger: Gus toners are in like manner saved dollars by our method of reaching the purchaser from first hands only. Small dealers who are begging here, there and everywhere for pianos to sell on any terms and prices, paying twenty-five per cent for the priv ilege of doing business, cannot be ex- Pected to successfully compete with man. ufacturers. Beware of the agent who runs down his neighbors' goods. It is always positive proof that the article in question: has merit. If it had none no effort would be required to keep it down and no abuse. necessary. So when an agent tells you the Shoninger is no good, just investigate md sec how soon we can prove tnat the agents has, to put it mild, departed from truth. B. SHoNINoER 6 Co.

National Democratic Convention,

The national democratic committee hav- ing met in the city of Washington on the 22d day of February, 1888, has appointed Tuesday, the 9th day of June next at noon as the time chosen and the city of St Louis as the place of holding the national demo- cratic convention.
 Each state is entitled to representation therein equal to double the number of it's senators and representatives in the con- gress of the United States. The Demo- crats of each organized territory and the District of Columbia are invited to send two delegates, subject to the decision of the convention as to their admission. All Democratic conservative citizens of the United States, irrespective of past political associations and differences, who can unite with us in the effort for pure, economi- cal and constitutional government, are cor dially invited to join in sending delegates to the convention.

The Increase of NIentlIcnncy.

The growing tendency to believe that char ity is the mother of pauperisn, and that our easy and disorderly dispensing of arl to men, dicants is increasing begsa-y. is coniirmcd and strengthened by the eApcricnc,. of tho city of Brooklyn. In the five years from 1874 to 1878, inclusive, the number of per sons who asked and received outdoor relief
 from the city increased between :n, and 60 per cent, while population was. increasing less than IA per cent The inference seemed fairly to ben drawn that the masses were growing relatively poorer and poorer. But in 1878 outdoor relief was wholly put an end to. It was feared by many that this would lead to vast suffering; but it did nothing of the kind. Not only was the 46, 900 drawing from the authorities dropped, but this drop ping caused, or was accompanied bya de- crease of applicants to the public and pri. vate societies. The true inference was that our system of charities encourages beggary and creates mendicancy.-Globe-D Democrat.

''IF MT Boutelle lived in my town," said Congressman Smith of Milwaukee, after the statesman from Maine had spoken. for the eighth time Thursday, "he would be considered a ward-bully and would not be tolerated. It is fact that my entire con- stituency, laborers, mechanics and lumber dealers, are crying aloud for free lumber. The truth is, that if I want to make @ four spout in my trade as millwright, I find great difficulty in finding board fit to use. The lumber that we get is of the commonest and poorest quality, and when we do get something good enough, we are compelled to pay $50 1000 feet. This because of the fact that our markets are closed to the Canadian product"

AN old toper in Bridgeport went into a saloon and bought quart of whiskey. Soon after he returned, said it did not suit and asked for his money. The dealer at once suspected that he was springing the old chestnut upon him, of watering the liquor, ,and tasted it, but found it all right The man then went out and was seen to take stick from his pocket, press it around inside the bottle and pour out 8 good-sized drink. He had sponge inside that would absorb about gill of the liquid. The dealer was mad all through when he heard of the sell The man was from Danbury.

To Save Drowning Men.

A United States navy officer has invented Q life saving device for the dreaded emer- gency of '.nan overheard" which promises to be of value. A raft buoy of sufficient size to support man is attached to the vessel by long and strong but light wire rope. The buoy is stocked with Q small supply of pro visions, and is furnished with potassium compound which upon contact with tho water ignites and burns brilliantly for twenty min utes If the drowning man, aided by the flame, succeeds in reaching the raft ho can be drawn to the vessel without the necessity of lowering boats Should the rope break and his own vessel lose track of him, he has, with the provisions, chance of sustaining life until picked up by others.-Frank Leslies.
