A6 the Casino.
Rough on the Curious.

A difficulty with which hotel-keepers, householders and transient lodgers have had to contend has been the ease and readiness with which thieves could en- ter unoccupied rooms by the forcing of lock or the displacement of key. There has recently been put upon the market what is called the automatic key escutcheon, which is e mechan- ical contrivance designed to make the burglars lot a most unhappy one. The object of the escutcheon is to secure ly hold the key In the door when locked, thereby preventing its being shaken out or removed by a skeleton key. The burglar who at- tempts to remove the key from the door that he may insert skeleton key from the outside Is baffled by this con- trivance, which, besides furnishing this security, prevents the key from being lost or mislsid, it remaining in the door whom not in use. The introduc- ton of the automatic escutcheon will be sad blow to the eavesdropper, for it closes tightly the aperture. The es- cutcheons arc made of bronze and ja- banned iron, are easily connected and weigh no more than silver trade dol Brooklyn Standard Union.

some of Them PaId-Cause of Delay
 in Many Cases.
 Some of the census takers in Connecti- cut have received their pay for work done in June, but there is general com plaint that it is less than was expected. One man, who had a difficult task, re- ceived $4S. 84 for his work, which occu- pied him constantly during business hours for the entire month of June. He signed the vouchers under written pro test. Considerable delay in paying the enumerators has arisen on account of defective, inaccurate or incomplete re- turns received at the census office. Several enumerators have had their papers returned for correction. Super visor Mccarthy of New Haven, in charge of the first census district of Connecticut, has decided to ask the government officials for additional com pensation for extra work done by the enumerators in his district.

400 STRIKERS RETURN TO WORK.
The Leetc's Island Quarrymen Make
 a Brave Fight.

The Leetc's Island Quarrymen Make
 a Brave Fight.
 LEETE's ISLAND, October 10.-The long continued strike of the stone cut ters and laborers employed at John Beattie's quarries at this place has at last been settled. The strikers have been out of work nearly three months and the strike was hard one. The reason for the strike was that they demanded an increase in wages over what they were getting, and shorter hours to work. This the members of the firm refused to grant and hence the strike. The trouble was settled by the firm agreeing to take the men back as body and also to allow them to return at the same old wages which they were receiving. The men all returned to work and are now drill ing holes with the same spirit that they were before the strike. The strikers stood firm all during the strike and not one man of the entire 400 who went out on strike returned to work before the strike had been settled. They helped each other in every way and did not ask or receive any outside aid from any body of men in the country.

ssLove Finds Nvav.ss
 The following original poem was read by Miss Katie Putnam, the charming little actress who will be seen at the Jacques tonight, at an entertainment in Boston in aid of the O'Reilly memo rial fund:
 Father, what is fame?' said little
 child
 To fondling father, who gently smiled For it pleased him much that the youth
 ful head
 Should seem so old and then he said "Fame, my child, is good to do, Nor wealth nor else can give it you, Such fame as lives in the hearts of men, Not fame of now and forgotten again. 'Tis the way that leads us toward the
 skies,
 With mourning here when it's follower
 dies.
 In short, my child" :" the father said, Pointing to picture over his head, ,- "If you look up there I will show you
 fame,"- And the picture bore O'Reilly's name.
 ssHands Across the Sea.''' Speaking of "Hands Across the Sea, which will be presented at the opera house next Thursday evening, the Port land Argus says: The clever and real -istic stage effects, stirring climaXes, the completeness of its presentation and the participation of an excellent company have served to win the popular fancy and retain it.

The marriage of Miss Lucy r.
Hyde. second daughter of William
S. Hyde, president of the Ware
national bank, and Henry Knight
Hyde, cashier of the national bank,
was celebrated last evening at the
brides home on Maple street in that
town, and was the center point of
attraction for over 200 guests, most
of them from out of town. 1t was
a charming wedding. Delicate flow
ers adorned the rooms and Railways
of the house, and Ingraham's
orchestra of Worcester stationed in
front of the house, furnished sweet
music. The ushers were DR.. r.
Leslie Carson, T. j. Fessenden of
New York, g. B. Knight of Troy, n.
Y, and A. L. Stafford of Boston.

"Peck's bad boy" was presented by
the Tivoli Gaiety Company Harry
Corners was Henry Peck, the bad

to arouse any enthusiasm among
the audience, some parts of it falling

was the excellent singing of Messrs.

TEACHERS CONVENTION.

The Second Days Proceedings-A Fine
Display Of Work from Schools on
the Other Islands.
After roll call Tuesday morning
the regular order OF exercises was
resumed, which consisted mainly of
a continuance of Mondays discus
sions.
Mr.. Moore, in taking up his sub
ject of higher arithmetic, instructed
the teachers how to write and read
numbers, proceeding through divi-
sion to fractions. As to the latter
he stated that, common fractions is
simply unexecuted division"
Miss Coursen continued with her
class in primary teaching. The class
for first year pupils certainly has
done very we'll in writing. She
failed, however, to tell, as many of
the teachers would like, how she
commenced and how she brought
the pupils up to the point obtained.
The drill in numbers was more
nearly what is expected, showing In
a comprehensive manner how she
taught the subject.
Miss j. Deyo followed Miss Cour-
sen with primary arithmetic. The
time was taken up in discussing the
way of teaching the youngest pupils,
and in giving the advantages of the
CRUDE method.
Mr.. L. HI. Gibson gave another
talk on reading and questioning.
During the instruction discussion
arose as to directing envelopes and
to names. The Inspector General
spoke of the Importance of teaching
the subject. Mr.. Lord brought out
the difficulty of distinguishing by
names as most natives have but one
name, advocating that teachers
should revert far enough to obtain
more than one. John Unea told how
promiscuously. names of friends of
the family were used as those of re-
lations.
The tonic sol ia instruction was
re-taken up before adjourning at
noon.
Prof Scott resumed his talk on
composition, dwelling specially upon
obtaining attention and securing re-
production. The suggestions offered
can be successfully followed by
pupils familiar with English, but
those not having a fair command OF
the language would find it difficult
to practice them.
During the same period occupied
by Mr.. Scott, Mrs. Thatcher was dis
cussing, in another room, the subject
of primary reading.
MIR. p l.. Lord took up his pen
manship, reviewing what he gave
Monday and furthe1ing his work by
adding to instruction already given
Perhaps one of the most notice
able features of the convention is
the display of work from the various
schools of the other islands. Fol-
variety and execution the exhibits
are difficult to be outdone. The Board
of Education should feel gratified al
the results shown by these, and il
would be most gratifying thing to
both the Board of Education and
the teachers to have citizens and
| others interested in educationa
work to visit the rooms containing
| the exhibits. The members Of the
Legislature, or a committee ap
| pointed by the Legislature, should
by all means inspect the work. The
teachers and Board of Education
combine in giving one and all an in
