beautiful White Bronze Monu-

of the early settlers of this city.
After the Common Council
authorized this committee to pur-
chase a monument, we devoted a
great deal of time to an investiga-
ton Of the various GRANTEES, being
anxious to procure a material that
would withstand the action of the
elements and preserve for the com
ing generations the records of the
noble Puritans who first settled
this town. The more we investi-
gated, the stronger became our
convictions that granite was not a

almost every case large patches OF
moss, all Of which greatly detract-

When returning from a trip
through the New England quar-

a most thorough investigation, we
became fully convinced that no

and that the most artistic designs
could be produced from it with

Shc Was Too Homely,

NEW BRITAIN, Sept. 4.-There is much talk over the treatment which the young lady who was engaged by the managers of the state normal school as instructress in the gymnasium has received at the hands of the management. This young lady was engaged for a stipulated sum and term which extends to the holidays. Tuesday she arrived in New Britain from her home in Youngstown, O., in company with her older sister, and reported at the school where she was shown over the building, had her duties explained to her, and was told to be on hand the next day for duty That evening the principal sent note to her sister asking to see her at once. The sister went, and was told that after giving the matter some consideration he (the prin- cipaD had decided not to keep her sister in the position for which she had been hired by the state board, but would pay her a months salary and her expenses and send her back home The only reason assigned was that she was too hornely, as the profes- sor expressed it. It is said by those who met her that while she was exceedingly plain she was of very engaging manners, and soon endeared herself to all who met her. Her fitness for the place was not and could not be questioned.

THE STRIKE THEORY.
From the Daily Saratogian.l


 We find in the columns of the Newark Advertiser communication which pur- ports to be written by woman-and none the worse for that-which puts the present strike business and the demand that is made by the Knights of Labor in peculiarly felicitous and clear light. It is we'll worth reading The Advertisers woman correspondent thus states her case
 am not a striker, but have griev- ance that grows out of 8 strike. My husband is high cock -a-lorum in the knights of something, and his time is so occupied in regulating the affairs of soulless corporations that I am obliged to keep boarders in order to keep a house over our heads I have, or did have, good cook. We'll, about II o'clock to- day she came to me, rigged out in walking costume, and says "Mrs Blank, I'm on @ strikep "What's the trouble?" says I. "Don't pay your wages, as agreed. and treat you well?' "Oh, your the best woman ever work ed for, she said, "but you see, Mrs UOncS nus uau rQcIlOn WlCQ Ter COOK, who belongs to the same society as my self for the protection of cooks, and our chief cook has ordered strike till Mrs Jones apologies to her cook and takes her back" "Well, replied, If you leave mo now with the dinner just pre- pairing for the boarders, you are dis charged, and will never take you back again. If you don't take me back when the strike is over," she replied, "there will be another strike for my protection, and you will do your own cooking till I am with you again, and out she founced.
 At noon my husband came in (he is always with me for his meals. "Hello! No dinner on table yet?" "No, cook is on strike" 'sOn strike! what's the matter, had quarrel with her?" ''No, but Mrs Jones has quarrelled with her cook" Hubby scratched his head 8 moment, then brought his hand down on the table. "By the great Powderly, this is mutiny." (he had been captain of a mud-scow, when he used to work for iving) 'I'll have the Knights wipe out every train on which Mir Jones goes to New York. The idea that my self and the boarders must go without our dinners because Mrs Jones dis charges her cook" Now my grievance is, that am sacrificed by transaction for which I am in no way responsible.
