BRIDE BROOKS ROMANCE.
A Ceremony That Gave to q Connecticut
Stream Its Pleasant Name.

A Ceremony That Gave to q Connecticut
Stream Its Pleasant Name.
1t is not generally known that the
settlement of New London was COM
menced under the authority of Massa-
chusetts. John Winthrop, its founder,
bore commission from the Govern
ment of that colony. 1t was first
called The Plantation of Nameaug,"
and its bounds extended on the west
to small stream two miles west of
Niantick, now Mantle Bay, which was
called by the Indians Sunkipaug. 1t
issues from pond of the same name
and falls into the Sound between Black
Point and Giants Neck.
During the first winter after the set
Element, the winter of 1916, at a time
when the whole country was covered
with deep snow, the incident that
caused the naming this stream and
lake Bride Brook and Lake occurred.
Application was made to Mr.. Win
throp to go to Saybrook and unite a
young couple in marriage, there being
in that place no person duly author
lied to officiate on such an occasion;
but he had been commissioned in
Massachusetts, and could not legally
fasten the nuptial knot in SaybroOk.
which was under the Jurisdiction of
Connecticut. He proposed. therefore,
to meet them half way on the brink of
the little stream that was his western
boundary. The proposition was ac-
cepted, and there Winthrop, accompa-
MED by party from his plantation.
met the bridal train from SaybrOok.
and the rite was performed. In con-
clusion Winthrop gave the name of
Bride Brook to the stream. by which
it has ever since been known. The
pond is also called Bride Lake.
The annals of history can furnish
but few incidents more striking than
the Bride Brook marriage All the
accessories Of the scene are picturesque
and impressive. The little company
stood in the midst OF dreary waste
of snow, far from any human habita-
ton at this time excepting the huts OF
sayages. Ancient forests and immense
solitudes were around them. beyond
which in shadowy magnificence, vast
and indefinite, lay the UNEMPLOYED
world. on whose brink they stood.
We might perchance add to these
features the stalwart forms of natives,
a tribe of whom dwelt not far from the
place, darting among the trees or
looking on at a distance.

Tho Sad Experience Which Befen Ono

Tho Sad Experience Which Befeu Ono d
tho Astors.
In the early days of the direct tea trade
with China, importers were ANXIOUS to Sc
cure the earliest cargoes Of new crop.
The fastest clipper ships were engaged in
the trade. Great haste in loading them was
followed by a hot race to reach New York
first
The firstcargo brought the best price and
large profits. The successful Captain was
always rewarded, so every known aid to
navigation was adopted
The young captain of one of Mr.. Astor's
clippers bought, on one Of his trips, new
chronometer, and with its aid made quick
passage, and arrived first He put the
price Of 1t into the expense account of the
trip, but Mr.. Astor threw 1t out, insisting
that such an item Of expense for new
tangled notions could not be allowed.
The Captain thereupon resigned and took
service with q rival line.
The next year he reached port long In ad-
vance Of any competitor, to the great de-
light and profit of his employers, and the
chagrin of Mr.. Astor.
Not long after they CHANGED to meet, and
Mr.. Astor inquired:
by the way, Captain, how much did that
chronometer cost YOUR
six hundred dollars" then, with quiz
zical glance, he asked:
sand how much has it cost you, Mr.. As
torp'
s'Sixty thousand dollars"
Men are often unfortunate In the rejec-
ton Of what they call new tangled notions.
There are sick men who refuse, even
when their physicians tell them they can
not help them, to take Warmers Safe Cure,
because it is "new-fangled proprietary
medicine. The result is they lose-life and
health.
Thousands Of other men have been re-
stored to health by it, as the testimonials
furnished to the public show. These testi-
monials can not be doubted. The propri-
etors have a standing offer of s., 600 to any
one who will show that any testimonial
published by them is not, 50 far as they
know, entirely true.
DR.. Andrew Wilson, Fellow of the Royal
Society, of Edinburgh, the editor Of
"Health," London, Eng, says, in his maya
zine, in answer to an inquiry, "Warner's
Safe Cure is Of perfectly safe character,
and perfectly reliable"
The refusal of manufacturing firm to
pay for the patent of a new invention by one
OF their workmen, cost them their entire
business. A new firm took out the patent
and were soon enabled to make goods
enough cheaper to drive the old firm out of
business; and many hysician is daily find
ing his patients, longtime chronic invalids,
unaccountably restored to health by the use
of the new kidney specific. New tangled no
tons are sometimes very valuable, and it
costs too much to foolishly reject them

THE DAILY
FRIDAY,
sCHoOL-PRINTING ENTERPRISE.

We are in receipt of copy OF a
book compiled, printed and bound
at the Hilo Boarding School, entitled
'Civics for young Hawaiians." The
chief part of the compilation its de-
voted to descriptive geographical
outlines of the best known countries
of the world, with remarks concern
ing the governments, usages, material
resources, and peculiarities OF each
the whole being put together ID
the form best suited to reach the
native mind, and be understood with
the most facility by young Hawai-
ians. As may be supposed, con-
siderable space is devoted to Ha-
waiian history, the constitution and
prominent features of the jurls-
prudence of the Hawaiian kingdom,
and such fundamental principles OF
government as are necessary Tor
Hawaiians to learn in the explain
atious and comparisons that are pro-
fusely spread throughout the book.
The whole work is in the English
language; and as all the composing,
printing and binding of the book has
been done by native boys in the Hilc
Boarding School, its great value to
young Hawaiians, as an instructor
may easily be imagined.
It is not necessary, in this review,
to criticise the Typography or style
of display very infinitely; suffice it
to say that the printing is clear, the
punctuation and spelling unobjec
tionable, and the whole get-up very
much better than could be reasonably
expected to emanate from a schoo
of native boys.
Mr.. Arthur w. Burt and Mrs
Rnrt are the teachers of the insti
tntion, and to their care and direc-
tion the success of this production
Of the school is undoubtedly due
Int we cannot overlook the fact Of
the keen susceptibility of the native
mind to grasp the ideas necessary tt
do the mechanical work connected
with the book under notice.

that the press used in the Hill
Boarding School, sis wretched olt

The Dice Guessed Unseen.

A pair of dice being thrown, to find the
number of points on each die without seeing
them: Tell the person who cast the dice to
double the number of points on one of them
and add to it; then to multiply the sum pro
duced by 5, and to add to the product the
number Of points upon the other die. This
being done, desire him to tell you the amount,
and, having thrown out %, the remainder
viii be a number consisting of two figures,
the first of which, to the left, is the number
Of points on tho first die, and the second
figure, to the right, the number on the
ether. Thus; Suppose the number Of points
Of the first die which comes up to be 2 and
that Of the other 3. Then if TO 4, the double
Of the points Of the first, there be added 3,
and the sum produced, Q, be multiplied by 5,
the product will be IS; to which if 3, the
number of points on the other die, be added
Is will be produced, from which, If % be
substracted 90 will remain, the first figure of
which is 2, the number Of points on the first
die, and the second figure 3, the number on
the second die
