CREED REVISION.

The spirit of bigotry and narrow sect
arianism is not yet dead among the
churches and for the man, who by early
training or religious profession has been
pent up in their sometimes confined at
mosphere, perusal of DR.. McCosh's views
on the revision of the creed is asrefresh-
ing and inspiriting as great, wholesome
gulp of sea air to the inland man. The
distinguished Scottish metaphysician is
no hide-bound pedant. His is a mind
that has kept with the foremost line in
the great advance of modern thought.
He is prompt to recognize that as an ex-
perimental science theology, if it is to
prove worthy of it's rank, must be pro
gressive. It cannot sit down among the
dust and ruins of former centuries with
out sealing it's own fate.
Shortness and simplicity should be
the essentials of creed; smooth away
the severity, says the kindly old age of
the Princetofmagnate. A most palpa-
bleshit!. Gehenna and everlasting bon
fire have lost much of their pyrotechnic
terrors; as an aid to a belief
in great, loving paternity, they
never were anything but fail
ures. Love is the great motive
and ought to be the key note Of each
and every expression of belief. Creeds,
says the doctor, are fences; they are not
fields, or 'houses OF goods. True, and
they have been for the most part fences
Of exclusion. They have been used, not
to include, but to exclude. A spirit of
self. righteousness has too often led the
churches to narrow their fences and
huddle together within the fold only
their own piodb sheep. That is not the
spirit of the Christian religion. The
fences, should be as wide as divine char
ity itself. Have they been?
From what we have already quoted, il
; mdst be sufficiently plain that for the
reverend doctor revision has no terrors
1eIf the scholars Of the seventeenth cen
lt,lry have made any imperfect state
ments, it is for the scholars of the nine
teenth century to correct them. l
would be strdnge, indeed, if creed ha'
lbeenmade which should be final for al
time. A. revision Of confession care
fully and slowly made by wise and godl,.
men is never dangerous, SO long as sucl
. consensus of men believe in that con
fession."

characteristics of Volcanoes" with
contributions of facts and principles from
the Hawaiian Islands, including a histori-
cal review of Hawaiian volcanic action for
the past sixty-seven years, discussion of
the relations of volcanic islands to deep
sea topography, and a chapter on volcanic
island denudation, by James B. Dana. IL
lustrated by maps of the islands, a bathy
metric map of the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans and views of bones, craters, lava
cascade, lava fountain, etc. (New York;
Dodd, Mead & Co.; 339 pages.) This long
descriptive title enables one at a glance to
discern the character of the. work, and the
name of Professor Dana as its author is q
guarantee that the implied promise of ex-
cellence will be kept to the uttermost.
This book will be cited as authority on the
subject of volcanoes henceforward. The
acknowledged ability of the observer is
always factor, and an important one as
to conclusions in regard to natural laws
and phenomena. The personal observa-
tions of the author, on which the book is
based, commenced with the ascent of We
suvius in 1884, and were continued by Wis
its in after years to Stromboli, Milo, Ma
deira, Tohiti, Tutuila and Upolu, New
South Wales, the Feejees, the coast region
OF oregon, etc., closing with second VS.
it to Vesuvius in 1860 and a second also to
the Hawaiian Islands in 1887. Professor
Dana's opportunities of examining the re-
gions he visited were exceptional, both
from his own fitness for the enterprise and
the fact also that he was with the ''Wilkes'
United States Exploring Expedition" half
century ago, as geologist. Modern sci
ence has enriched our libraries with books
which help those who peruse them to see
what Shakespeare declared to exist:
Tongues in the trees, books in the running
brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in everything"
And publishers ably second the efforts
of writers to present knowledge to the
eye by excellent print, fine illustrations
and binding so dainty and tasteful as to
make it pleasure to handle the volumes,
even irrespective of the authors valuable
contributions to scientific lore.

THE OUTLOOK.

Hope springs eternal in the Democratic
breast, and the Democrats of this State
are encouraging its springing as much as
possible in order to keep somewhat COM
Portable until election day comes. They
are fighting with each other, but they
maintain a bold front against their oppo-
nents. This will of course deceive no one
who is at all acquainted with the real
state of affairs. The Republicans have
not made any false motions. They have
as good State ticket as was ever put be-
fore the voters. Their nominees for con-
gressmen, sheriffs, senators and represent
atives harmonic in quality with the State
ticket, and as result there is large
amount of very effective work being done
by Republicans who do not usually feel
bound to do personal work. This will tell
in way that will surprise those who do
not realize it's value.
There should be no ''let-up" during the
few days between now and election day.
Over-confidence is not good thing, and a
wholesome fear of the adversary is wise.
There is ample incentive for every good
Republican to work and work hard.

by their bodily heat and proximity, readily
take up such duties quite unintentionally,

be given to the proper maintenance of q
generous food supply for both the old and

ing sparrows accounts for the rapid man
ner in which this species multiplies.
Justice MiIler's death revives the story
of the Supreme court decision, written by
him, and betrayed prematurely to stock
speculators in some mysterious way, rela-
tive to the Pacific railroads under the
Thurman act. His over-scrupulous honesty
kept him above suspicion, and his discretion
also made that revelation all the more sur
prising. The Chicago News thus explains
the matter: A woman in Washington,
poor, but extravagant, and the widow of a
famous general, was on intimate terms
with Justice Miller's family. AS the de-
cision was certain to affect the prices of all
Pacific railroad securities very materially,
whichever way it went, and as it might
ruin men who held the stocks and bonds,
or make their fortunes, there was an in
tense anxiety to know its nature in ad.
vance. The agent of a New York syndi.
cate largely interested in securities, offered
this woman $50, 900 if she would obtain
the desired information. She undertook
the delicate task While the Miller family
were at church Sunday morning, she went
to the house, entered Judge Miller's Ii
brary, unlocked his desk by means oi
skeleton keys, and copied a portion Of the
opinion, which was carried to New Yorl
and was the basis of very large transac
tions in stocks before the opinion was an
nounced-about 80 o'clock on Monday
The facts leaked out, the widow was neve,
allowed to enter the Miller house agair
and was never again recognized by any Of
the family. In fact, she was compelled tc
leave Washington in disgrace, but she got
her $4,000.

REPUBLICAN TICKET
TAXING WHEEIS

The assessors of Norwich in this State
have made move which will not add to
their popularity, even if it adds to the
wealth in the town treasury. They have
announced that bicycles, tricycles and
velocipedes are subject to taxation. They
have published'in the local papers a notice
to owners of such vehicles requiring them
to include them in their tax lists, and it
follows that young man having a wheel,
even if he has no other property, will be
required to make out tax list and include
in it his wheel at it's value. Whether he
puts it in at cost, or at what he regards it
as worth in view of its wear and condi-
ton, the assessors have, in either case, the
power to fix the valuation. The published
notice does not explain whether wheels are
held to be taxable as Coaches, carriages
and wagons" or 'Taxable property not
specifically mentioned.
It is probable that this action of the
Norwich assessors will find imitators. 1t
is estimated that if all the "wheels" in this
State were taxed at least $10,0 900 would be
secured from such taxation,

senator Plat.


So far as space occupied on the map
goes, we Connecticut folks have to own up
that our state is very small state indeed
one of the smallest in the Union.
Yet, as far back as the times of the Con-
tinental Congress and the Federal Con-
vention, Connecticut-had e voice and an
influence in the public counsels out of all
proportion to her size in square miles or
population. Why. Because, having the
good luck to possess such men as Roger
Sherman, William Samuel johnson and
Oliver Ellsworth, she had the good sense to
make use of them
The people of this state are about to
choose-through their agents and dele
gates, the members of the General As
sembly-a senator of the United States.
The choice is none the less theirs because
it is made indirectly. They are to choose
between Orville II. Platt of Meriden and
some democratic politician at present un-
known.
Mr.. Platt has been in the senate eleven
years, and in that time has grown steadily
in the esteem of his associates and of the
country. He is one of the most respected
and influential gentlemen in that body,
chairman of the important committee on
territories, second member of the commit
tee ON patents, second member of the COM
mittee on interstate commerce, second
member of the committee on Indian affairs
third member of the committee on manu-.
factures, etc. His advice carries weight
When he speaks the senate listens, and the
press gallery listens. The experience o;
these eleven years has notably enhanced
his usefulness to his state and to the coun
try. He is now, in the maturity of hi
powers, senator of national reputation
| and an honor to Connecticut.
Suppose the state foolish enough to sen6
the las yet only conjecturable) democratic
politician to Washington in Mr.. Platt'i
place; what would happen. The new man
| would take his seat on the minority side
| He would be assigned, according to usage
| to the foot of sundry committees. If ht
ventured to take any but the most modest
briefest part in debate during his appren
| tice wears, the old senators would quickly
bring home to him the sense of his error
Even if he were man of good natura
| gifts and aptitudes it would require mor'
| than one term to bring him anywhere neal
| the plane of influence and leadership OF
which Mr.. Platt now stand.
Connecticut folks have traditional rep
| utation for Yankee sense-for being wild
awake to their own interests and clever a
driving bargain. What sort of a bargain
would the trading off of Orville ii. Plat
for democratic greenhorn bes When
would the Yankee sense come inf
