A Tragedy.

Wednesday night last Fenwick's Hotel
was the scene of a gay party, and "brighi
the lamps shone DER fair women and brave
men" The following morning the scene
was changed, and one of the dancers was
dying, stricken down with bullet through
his brain. AT about 1890, A. NJ, a par
" fyoung men were gathered in the hotel
sitting-room. Mr.. William Hayden was
examining Hopkins s. Allen, 80 cali
brc revolver passed him from Mr.. William
II. Ford, and Mr.. Leonard Abel was look
ing on. Suddenly, the weapon was dis
charged, and Mr.. Abel fell forward with a
bullet through his head, the ball having
struck him just above the left eye. The
wounded man was hastily moved to n
bedroom. DIR. A. Jack Spalding and Rev.
Father McSweeny were called in and all
that was possible was done. AT about
l. NJ. Mr.. Abel died. On Friday his
remains were taken TO st. Aloysius church
where Mass was said and an appropriate
sermon preached by Rev. Father Jenkins.
The remains were thence taken to Newtown
graveyard and inferred. The LeonarCitown
Rifles, Of which organization the deceased
was faithful member, attended the flne-
r'l and buried their late comrade with mil
itary honors. Mr.. Abel was good and

untimcly end is subject Of sincercst re-

Messrs. Editors IL had the pleasure OF
attending the Christmas festivities, Dec.
18th, at school No. 3, It'll election district,
under the management of Miss Lizzie
blackstone, and by way of an item of news
will give You q short account.
One ofthe schOol-rooms was very pretti-
ly decorated with evergreens and notices
suitable for the occasion, with q large
Christmas tree in the centre well filled
with sacks Of good things" At2P NJ.
the folding doors were thrown open, and TO
the music of "Tramp, Tramp, the Boys are
Marching" rendered by Huseman's Band,
the children, about 60 in number, marched
in two and two and took their places
around the centre of attraction. The chill
dren sung Christmas Greeting" which
was very pretty, and sung in almost per-
feet time, after which the distribution of
the bags began, each scholar coming for
ward, as the teacher called their name
from the roll, and bowling their thanks
After the distribution, song again was
sung, at the ending of which DR.. r.. p.
Blackstone called for Mr.. w. b. Dent, for
mer teacher of the school. and in a few ap-
propriate remarks presented him with a
handsome cake-basket and butter-dish asa
token of esteem from his old pupils. Mr.
Dent was most agreeably surprised, and re-
sponded in few words of thanks and ap-
probation of the gin. The music again
struck up and the scholars were soon en-
joying themselves dancing, every one wear
ing upon their faces childhood's smile of
perfect happiness. The company dispersed
at 5 p. NJ. and will always have pleasant
rccollections of this happy Christmas festi-
val. -

ICOMNIiNICATED.

New HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 23rd, 1897.
Messrs. Editors I'm glancing over the
columns of your paper of the 22nd, my eye
lighted on an article from the pen of the
Hon. Benz. G. Harris, in which are express
sed sentiments from which beg leave to
differ. The article is labored attempt to
show that an analogy exists between the
actions of portion of the Northern people
in resisting measures that were adopted be-
fore the late war, and those committed on
the part of persons who have been termed
Anarchists.
The analogy, it seems to me, is forced
and ill-founded. No parallel exists between
the two cases. In the one case it was the
protest of a people against the execution of
laws which they deemed were wrong. In
the other case it was an attempt by gang
of lawless, political filibusters to dethrone
all law and order-to demolish one of the
best political organizations in the world.
The Northern people considered slavery
to be wrong-wrong in principle-no law
enacted by civil authority could make it
right The South generally admits the
same thing to-day. When these laws were
enacted that tolerated or were designed to
perpetuate slavery, the people ofthe North,
through their representatives, took part in
the enactment Of those laws, protested
against their execution. And they were
right in this protest Under our form Of
government laws are made by the people.
Whenever then laws are enacted by those
who are designed 10 be their representa-
tivcs-yea, though those representatives
may be such men as Webster, Clay. Cass
and Dickinson were, that are wrong or I'M
just in the eyes of the people-the people
have right TO utter their protest against
such laws This is what was done when
the fugitive slave law was enacted The
people of the North considered that act to
be wrong, because it was q liberation and
sanction Of an institution which was re-
garded by them rs wrong in its very prin-
ciple. They cannot then justly be termed
Anarchists. They were not after no law,
but after q righteous law. They cannot be
termed Anarchists; if 50, then any one who
protests against the wisdom or justice Of
any laws that are in vogue among us are
equally deserving the epithet Those who
may be dissatisfied with the present tariff
system, or the currency system, or any 9th.
er economic system in vogue among Us,
may as justly be termed Anarchists.
On the other hand, the action Of the Chi.
cago Anarchists was deliberately planned
attempt TO overthrow our government
They were malcontents Of Europe who
brought 10 this country their hatred Of
mOnarchical oppression and attempted 70
wreak their unreasonable vengeance upon
government. the model Of the world, the
principles Of which they were grossly ig.

TO welcome the oppressed Of the earth and
they in turn would stab her for IL The
