Historical Society to erect tablets to the
memory of those who fell victims of the

such tribute due to them, but the agita-

of course, has disappeared, except from
some remote corners, but epidemics of de
fusion are by no means wanting In these
days. They sweep over the country from
time to time, and embrace all themes, from
astronomy to medicine and religion. They
are only temporary, to be sure, for the
moment some one stops and apple. a

SENSE" they vanish. The mining craze
which manifested itself in our own county
a few years ago, was, In its sbsurdity and
delusion, closely akin to the Salem witch
craft, and much of the excitement which
grew out of the later real estate boom
In our immediate vicinity was simply
another phase in those spidemics Of delu
sion which occasionally sweep over com
munities or nations.

The royal family of England will have
the sympathy of the whole world in its
sorrow over the death Of the Duke Of
Clarence and heir to the throne. The
event is especially sad from the fact that
the nation has just been celebrating the
betrothal and preparing for the marriage
Of the young Prince. The succession will
now fall to the second son of the Prince Of
Wales, Prince George He is said to be a
young man Of unusual worth and sturdi-
ness of character. He, too, has just re-
covered from a critical illness, but his
strong constitution saved him from the
sad end that cut short the career OF his
brother. Prince Georges training has been
largely with the navy, and his political
aspirations for his country are said to be
that Englands predominsnce on the ocean
shall not only be maintained but strength
