At Rest.

In memory of Diana NJ. Prentice grand
mother of Mrs S. w. DelZen, who died in New
Haven about two months ago, aged SO years.
Her last words to the author OF this poem
were: "Rosabel, remember always that CHRIST
is your divine redeemer."
She stood by Deaths silent river
Its waves flowed dark and deep;
But she smiled as the icy waters
Pressed closer about her feet.
And we whispered low, in reverence,
Asw watched each parting breath,
allow wondrous fair is the passing,
1t is not like death"
The exquisite chrism of suffering
That only woman can know,
She had borne without fear or faltering,
Till the tired feet and slow
Reached the Great Hereafter
And though her mortal eyes grew dim,
She looked through the awful mystery
OF Deaths silence,up to Him;
With childlike trust and sweetness
Yielded up her human breath;
Through His love being more than conqueror'
For love is more mighty than Death.
Shall we call the soul lost that is hidden
In the great light of eternal morn?
Or fashion q shroud for the young chlid
In the day that it is born?
SO fold her hands softly, oh mourners,
over her breast;
"For the people of God there remaineth
A perfect rest"
Let us rejoice; in our tender reverence
Forgetting to weep;
Remembering only, our Lore has promised
ellis beloved sleep"
Beloved wife and mother,
Woman's highest and hottest crown;
She spent her lite for the children
And her burdens are now laid down
At the feet of her dear Redeemer;
And when He makes up jewels rare
Oflives that were lived for Others
She will shine in radiance there
Oh! white soul, so loving and tender,
So faithful and true,
Surely you fashioned the heaven
That is fashioned for you
Like sweet odors from myrrh and cedar,
Breathing forth balm,
Her merciful deeds return fragrant to us
Like n blessed and holy psalm.
Here the tender flowers which she cherished,
That faded from earthly light,
There have freshened in sweetness supernal,
To gladden. her deathless sight.
In a place prepared by the Master,
She is exalted to-day;
From the eyes that saw here but "darkly,"
"All tears have been wiped away
Lost mortal! Immortal forever!
Ended the strife.
Put off is her earthly armor;
She has gained the crown of life.
Fair and spotless in white robes all glorious,
Redeemed by His blood
She singeth "the new song" victorious
In the city of God.
And we who wait, YEARLY working,
Pressing on to the brink,
Perhaps are nearer the home and the glory,
Even to-day, than we think.
From the hills of Bethany calling,
Rings voice clear and sweet;
Through the gloom of the centuries falling,
These words repeat:
81 am the resurrection -
Listen to what he saith:
"And they, who believe on Me,
Shall never see Death"
So Grave, you may hold our beloved
In your darkness, cold and dread;
One has broken your bars asunder
And "captive, captivity led"
i Rosabel Prentice.

Good public highways are an absolute
necessity. Not alone are they needed
within few miles of the great cities, but
they are needed over the whole length
and breadth of the land. Ask farmer
what he wants worse than all else and he
will tell you, "Good roads," He does
not want railway as much as he wants
good road. In many places where the
railway was but a mile distant, farmers
have been compelled to wait from four to
six weeks before being able to haul
products for which the market was wait
ing, simply owing to the impossible con-
dition of the roads, Philadelphi Press.

FAIRFIELD,
THE RUBBER WORKS.

One of the busiest places in Fairfield or
Southport is the establishment of the
Fairfield rubber company. The large
factory, on the north side of the railroad
just west of Mill Plain crossing, is kept
constantly running 10 hours day and
parts of the machinery, the vulcanizers,
are kept going night and day. The fac
tory furnishes employment to about 100
hands, men and women. The company.
which owns large amount of property
here, has 719 feet front on the railroad
and owns main building about 200 feet
in length, three stories high, besides store
houses and other buildings. This fac
tory was built early in the '7Os by James
Mott, who intended to make rubber wag-
on bodies, but none were made here and
the factory remained idle for several
years. 1t was intended for model fac
tory and the grounds were laid out with
flower beds, etc. About IL years ago,
the Fairfield rubber company was organ
lied, with Nathaniel Wheeler of Bridge
port and e. w. Harral of Fairfield as
principal owners, Mr. Harral being chos-
en- president, position he has since eff
ficiently held. The present officers of the
company are:
President and treasurer, e. W. Harral; sec
rotary, T. @. Wordin; financial manager, Al. C.
Wheeler; directors, N. Wheeler, A. G. Wheel
er, T. G. Wordin, e. w. Harral.
The goods Of the company are sold on
the road by w. w. Harral and an office
has been established in Baltimore for
southern trade. When first organized,
rubber cloths were made entirely; but
the manufacture Of clothing soon COM
menced and is now carried on extensive
ly. Mems clothing only is manufacture
ed, but this is made in a variety of styles
and qualities, including superior line of
mackintoshes. Besides coats, which form
the staple product, hats, horse covers and
blankets, wagon aprons, ETC., are made.
"A specially is the wooEfaced Harral
cloth, on which the company holds
patent. This is peculiar product, de-
signed to take the place of broadcloth,
which it greatly resembles, il carriage
tops and Innings. Besides this, uphol-
stery goods are made In staple and fancy

Notwithstanding the storm, number
were present at the lecture room of the
Methodist church, last week Thursday
evening, when the second of the series of
sccials was given under the auspices Of
the Epworth league. A pleasing pro-
gram Of music, collation., etc., was well
carried out, but the interest ;centered in
the debate on ssWhat is to be done with
the American indiana Charles McClel-
Ian spoke earnestly in favor of total ami
hilation Of the redskins by relentless war,
arguing that the nature Of the race was
such that civilization could never en-
noble them and that determination would
be the only means Of securing peace to
the nation. Robert s. Shepard could see
no reason why Indians, savages though
they be, should not be admitted to citi-
zenship Of the United States and given
equal rights with whites. G. Q. Jellif
could see do better way Of settling the
vexed question than to allow the aborig-
ines to preserve their tribal relations UNI
der military control. Owing to the storm
and the interest displayed bp all present,
the colloquy will be continued at the
next meeting, Thursday evening, Febru-
ary u. One Of the most interesting fea-
lures of last weeks meeting was the pa
per read by Rev W. Fl. Hubbell on the
Indians, their tribes and locations and
their probable origin. He spoke Of the
probability Of their Asiatic origin.

Sheen Culture

We are always pleased to find anything
in the BEE relating to agriculture, but
we cannot quite agree with our neighbor
Chambers in his excellent article on sheep
culture. We have had some experience
with cattle and sheep and we much pre-
fer the cattle. They are quite as profit
able with us, reckoning the care bestow-
ed. We notice that many farmers. after
trying sheep, year or two, give it up.
mer and Winter and, after nursing lambs
from January until June, sold out the
sheep and lambs to parties in Ansonia,
and the parties were sued for sheep tres
pass, a few days after. Mr. Gilbert did
not buy more, having passed half of the
Winter getting up nights to save trem-
bling lambs, cold and hungry, the moth
ers without milk and butting over their
own offspring. The expectations of great
prices for such early lambs was not fol-
lowed by any reasonable offers. AS to
protection, I we cannot expect the towns
to do better than they are now doing.
Dogs got into our sheep and made sad
work, but they were appraised for more
money than we could get in any other
market With wool at an average Of
25c per pound, we shall not attempt to
keep sheep. The last we kept got dis
eased and we lost many lambs, found
dead in the field. Some Of them would
weigh 40 pounds. Well, cattle, calves
especially, are troubled with Lawrence
county worms, but they are as hardy as
sheep. The cases instanced by our neigh
Dor, showing neat fences and evident
prosperity from sheep culture, are no
doubt true, but such farmers would be
prosperous with cattle instead Of sheep,
although, many years ago, Ezekiel Beers
said, sshe got out Of debt and kept out
keeping sheep: g. nv Bradley.

The resignation of Rubenstein from the
st. Peter sburg conservatory of music is a
noteworthy event in the musical world.
This great composer has been for many
years an autocrat Of music in the Russian
capital and idolized by the nation. For
some time his blindness has incapacitated
him for pianoforte playing, in which he
was SO long wizard. Last Winter, his
Goth birthday was celebrated, not. only in
Russia, but also in Germany, by special
concerts and memorial musicals.
