SHOCKING Deprauitx.

The shocking depravity of the age
cannot be better illustrated than in
the crime which recently convulsed
Bridgeport, Conn A gang of ruth
less burglars entered the Congre-
gational Church at Green Farms and
stole the organ. ''leaving no trace of
it behind" as the local paper says.
This was a dastardly outrage. If
the burglars had stolen the ''solo
TENOR" the congregation could have
endured it Even if they had carried
away the young lady soprano, and
left no trace of her behind, the affair
might have been regarded in the light
of a pleasing scandal and SO have
been borne with Christian fortitude
But deprived of their church organ,
the good people We're bereaved in
deed. Left to the crude resources of
their own vocal organs, the joyous
noise that they We're wont to raise
was no longer sweet to their ears,
while their frugal minds were
troubled with the prospect of the
impending church fair to supply the
grievous loss
1t is to be feared that if the pastor
and congregation of that church have
any influence with Saint Peter, the
sacrilegious burglars win have more
trouble to steal themselves through
the gates which he guards than they
had in abdueting the music from the
Green Farms tabernacle.

Congratulations are very much in
order in the Democratic party just
now. We offer them
First, to Governor Albeit, on ac-
count of his splendid victory, sur
passing anything ever before known
in the State;
Second, TO Allan L. McDermott, be-
cause he showed himself one of the
ablest of political managers in his
conduct of the campaign;
Third, to Edward F. Mcdonald, be-
cause he triumphed over SANDER and
secured amagnificent vindication from
the people among whom he lives;
Fourth, to County Clerk McLaugh-
lin and Register Fielder, because the
Charter reform was indicated in
their persons;
Fifth, to William G. Heppenheimer
because he downed "Bill" Kern and
because every one is delighted at his
success;
Sixth, to all the other Democratic
candidates on account of the splendid
runs they made;
Seventh, to Sheriff Davis, and to
Chairman O'Donnell, on account of
the consummate success of their local
work.
Eighth, to all good Democrats on
the glorious victory; and
Ninth, to ourselves, because we
helped to win it.

In one of our exchanges we find a
paragraph to the effect that chry-

with great pomp in some very
recherche social circle in West Eliza

We wonder, what sort of thing it is.
We have infantile recollections of
camomile tea and catnip tea; but in a
long and clleckered experience We
have never before come across the
chrysanthemum beverage.
IT it bears any resemblance to the
decoctions of our youth, we trust it
may be administered in homeopathic

flavor it
