The September Wide Awake, while it has many articles for family reading, is full of the sort of stories children find satisfaction in; of course everybody reads "The Peppers first, for just what Polly will do is as yet g mystery to us all, but the short stories will be read next. Mrs. Clara Doty Bates's 'Red Lilies" is with out doubt taken from life. "Two Fish, ermen" by Rowland E. Robinson de- scribes a Quaker boys holiday. What happened "All Because Blue-bird Sang" is eloquently told by Mrs. Maud Lincoln Langley. Aunt Betsey's Cap Box" is an amusing family incident, told by Clarissa Potter "The Sovereign of '45'' is perhaps the best story yet written by Mrs. M. K. W. Sherwood. GA Tale of the Black Forest'' by Sally Thorndike reaches perfection as fairy story. Pet erkin and Pollikin go to the Fair'' by Annie Morrison, will be read over many times by little children. Marietta Am brosi in her autobiographical serial de- scribes her ''good times" in tending the Italian silk-worms. Miss Matilda Ar chambeau Van Dorn' in Miss Cuming's serial keeps her relatives and friends in 8 very animated state of mind. "The Prince Imperial" by Mrs. Goddard Open, is an anecdotive account of the short life of the only child of Louis Napoleon and Eugenie; it Is illustrated by excellent photographs of the imperial boy. ~"An Odd Set-II' closes Eleanor Lewiss se- ries: Famous Pets.''

It is difficult to account for the shock ing murder of quiet and orderly old German and his wife in Bloomfield. They were killed with an axe and their bodies were found in well. They were poor, a Id their German friends have occasion ally visited them and kindly given them some aid in money or clothing. It does not appear that robbery was the cause. But 1t Is believed that 8 tramp who had slept in the barn several nights is the criminal. The evidences are that the two old persons were killed in the yard and tren dragged to the well and thrown in. Possibly they had ordered the tramp to l. ave, when he killed them. The name Of the murdered couple was Bushenhagen. Louis Lauer, 8 tramp and ex-convict, seen with them on Friday, has been arrested On suspicion. He tells contradictory stories, seems much scared over his ar Test, and circumstances are much against him. He Is known to have washed his shirt and overalls at a brook near by soon after the tragedy.

THE bill to pension of confederate pen sioners at the rate of $100 each per year would be all right if the burden were borne only by those who sympathize with the idea of that form of ''reward of merit. ? But Georgia has been inviting people of the north to settle and invest capital in the state, and the response to the invita- tion has been liberal. Is it in good taste to tax people who think that the word ssrebel" Is more expressive than the word "confederate" to pension of those who fought against our national flag?

"THK LESSON" pointed out by many papers, as taught by the Almy murder case, Is warning to farmers not to en- ploy tramps. Why to farmers, particu- larly? Isn't 8 murderous fugitive as dan- gerous to the community if employed in a mill? Our manufacturers need to be more particular as to the class Of en- ployees they quarter upon the commun- ity. The farmer, as well as the manufac- turer, is often obliged by an emergency to temporarily employ persons whose an- tecedents are unknown to him. He no doubt often is less particular than he should be, but not more so than the man. ufacturer, nor is the evil of his careless ness in this regard greater than that of the manufacturer, who endangers his own peace and that of his neighbors by lack of discrimination in the matter Of har- boring criminals, tramps and men or in- cendiary tendencies.

London Illustrated News: The heavy shipments of gold which have recently taken place from the United States to Europe have naturally excited attention, and some of the American journals have even gone so far as to suggest that there was something wrong with the currency. This, however, is not the case; the ship ment of gold is simply the result of the European monetary crisis, which impelled foreign holders of American stocks to sell their American securities for the pur- pose of raising funds to meet their en- gagements In Europe. It is probable that the obligatory purchase of American cereals and cotton will send all the gold back within short time, unless, as is pointed out by an American financier, the great European banks prefer selling Am- erican securities to shipping American gold. This would stave off gold exports from Europe for time, but only for a time, as, owing to the protective tariff, the balance of trade must be with the United States, and this balance is bound tD be paid off in gold. The financial situ- ation of the United States was never sounder than 1t Is at present.

THE September term of the superior court began at Holland on Tuesday, with Judge Fenn upon the bench. Patrick Carey and James McGuane, who escaped from iail and were arrested by Rockville officers after lively tussle, were each sentenced to 9s days fin jail. The case of Patrolman Delaney for shooting at J. D. Milne, which was put down for this term of court, will not come to trial, having been withdrawn by the plaintiff. John Quinn, for an assault committed upon a 12 year-old girl at Talcottville in July, was sentenced to state prison for five years. Quinn, who is young man not 21 years old, has never been in prison, but has served terms in jail and been be- fore the police court several times for drunkenness and committing petty bur glaries. Word was received by Sheriff Mullin last evening that Quinn had brok- en jail. We do not learn particulars.

PERMANENT ROoFs.-What Is the use of roof that is only temporarily water tight? There are few which are proof against wind, rain and heat very long, un- l.ss they have been coated with genuine dark red slate roofing paint, which makes & new slate roof even out of an old shingle arfail. It has heavy and durable body, but is easily applied cy any one; will neither rust nor corrode, and enables the owner to save his roof at 8 ridiculously low cost. Slate paint is elastic and hex- ible, water and spark proof, and will last like stone Indian. For new roofs rub bor roofing has all the merits of metal, all the virtues of slate, and all the good qualities of shingles, at half the cost.
