months of idleness forced upon the EN-

Inconvenience, if nothing worse, caused
the state departments and institutions.
The members OF the printing board can
not allow deficiency to be created as theii
hands are tied by section 6 GA of the gen
eral statutes 1889, which reads as follows:
Every officer or agent of the state who
shall be empowered to eXpend any public
moneys. or to direct such expenditures, is
hereby prohibited from making any con-
tract for the erection or repair of any
building, or for any other purpose, where
by the expenditure of any greater sum
of money shall be contemplated, agreed to
or required, than is expressly authorized
by law"
1t should be explained that the appropri-
alton for the present fiscal year is $4,000
for labor and Sl2, 900 for paper and binding
material. 1t Is the latter amount which is
well-nigh gone and the exhaustion of

In view of the many reports recently cir

himself presented a communication TO the
directors. President Greenhut saws that
nothing has been done on their part, eth

success of the company; but that, as their
course was not in harmony with the views
of those who were endeavOrinC to create a

and were accnsed of trying to bear the

pledges, made 1T a meeting OF the repre-
sentative of the trade. that the policy of
this comany would be 60 keep prices on a

Before adjournment the directors passed

Princeton,s Good Fortune

Princeton college has long had griev-
ance. The campus is noted for its beauty
and there are splendidly equipped labora-
tories and classrooms, but there is no
commencement hall, and the important
ceremonies of that day for which all other
college days are made have to be held in
one of the churches of the town.
Mrs. Charles B. Alexander, of New York
city, has come to the rescue and donated
the cashtor magnificent commencement
hall. Work is in rapid progress and the
architect promises that this will be the
handsomest structure Of the kind in the
world. The general style is gothic and
the plan semicireular. The main front is
flanked by two circular towers, and around
the structure extends a cloister from
which there are seven entrances into the
auditorium. The seats in the latter are
ranged somewhat as they were in "A Greek
or Roman theater, and with the gallery
there viii be seats for !, 800 persons.

| legs and does as he is bid. His range is
immense, for when told 10 sing tenor he
pitches his voice in high key, and if bass
| IS preferred he becomes very Santley.
Unlike many of his brethren, the piano
has rather soothing effect on him, nor
is he averse to singing in general, but he is
discriminating, and there are two or three
songs that his mistress sings which upsets
his equanimity. He first accompanies her
through half a dozen bars, and then runs
out of the room as fast as his legs will
carry him. This invariably happens with
the same songs.
Larry has excellent manners too. He
always comes into the dining room on his
hind legs in the morning, and presents
paw to his master and mistress, and, hav-
ing walked once around the table in this
fashion, demands his breakfast, which
awaits him in the corner, but which he
would never touch without being told to
take it. There is not much ceremony
about this light bread and milk meal, but
when dinner time arrives Larry spreads
his cloth. He fetches folded newspaper
out OF the basket, brings it to the hearth
rug and there most ingeniously unfolds
1t, and then sits down before it awaiting
his plate or the occasional bone After his
dinner he has his nap, but as the clock
strikes he is off like a shot for miles
