There is no power so great foi
intoxicating the highest principles
of morality as the pulpit. Ever
the press though a potential factor
for this end, especially so becaus,
of its wide circulation, can never
take the place of the living vote,
of the preacher. The young here
gather an inspiration towards the
cultivation of those principles
which are to be the basis of char
acter. The lessons taught from
week to week are of the utmost
Importance; and many get the most
of their moral instruction from
this source. Churches and then
influences, aside from the WORSHIP
of God, are a benefit to any com
munity, and raise the standard OF
true morality and righteous living
wherever they are placed. San
Saba owes a great deal to the NOR
al influence Of her pulpits. And
even those who are not members
of fanny of the differenct denomina-
tiors should assist the churches
both morally and materially. The
moral character Of the many chill
dren who are rapidly approaching
and womanhood, Is to be
largely determined by the lessons
they learn from the pulpits. Al
intelligent, consecrated ministry,
free from sectarian prejudice al
separated entirely in theil
pulpit mini5trations from all pure
ly secular or political questions,
will bear fruit for the elevation Of
humanity. Plain, straightforward |
presentation Of the great truths OF
the Bible, from an earnest Cody |
man, will be seed sovn whose har
vest of good will benefit all.
It is a strange thing why Cleve-
land and the administrationists
to be friendly on bi-met-
are holding legislation in
check by wanting to kill silver so
far as future is concerned, and
then build back to free silver
again. The repeal and the free
could all be accomplished
under one bill.
The defunct railroad commission
case will soon come up for trial
in the supreme court.
enthusiastically we hear it
secretly whispered and partially
openly calculated, that a move Is
on foot, the ultimate end OF which
is to move the county seat. Ye
Gods what are the wild winds
saying? We don't know what
truth there Is in the above, but
Eve smell a mouse, we see him
floating il the mir, we'd better nip /
him in the bud.

 The body of a man was discovered floating down the Naugatuck river, at 8 point near the Bunker Hill road, early yesterday afternoon, by Irving Lake

WORLDS FAIR EXHIBIT.
An Interesting Collection From { Schools of Waterbury.

An interesting OO4AGCNAOu GEVNA LII Schools of Waterbury. a,
 The school exhibit from Waterbury is being packed up at the High school building to-day to be sent to Secretary Hiue of the state board of education and forwarded to the Worlds fair at Chicago. Connecticut was placed at a disadvantage in this exhibit on account of not having any legislature to make an appropriation. The work that has been done by the schools of eight cities and towns of the state in this line has all been done in five weeks, while other states have had as long as two of the pupils is very creditable, how ever, and after it comes back from Chi cago will be placed on exhibition in this city. The lines of the exhibit were all
 laid out by Secretary Hine.
 The charts from the Welton street school, prepared under direction of Miss Agnes Fitzpatrick,n show methods for teaching numbers, forms and colors in a
 manner which must make an impression
 on the dullest. Miss Bowes' pupils at the Dublin street school have some neat work also in this line. The fraction charts of the Washington street and Bank street schools deserve great praise. The charts from the Porter street school, showing what the pupils have learned about lines and angles worked
 on cards, are very creditable to the
 teachers. The East Gaylord school
 has also made an excellent con-
 tribution to the collection, the Fbusy work charts by Miss Mo
 Donald's pupils being very pretty. An
 Interesting number chart from Miss
 Keenan's pupils in the Bishop street
 school attracts attention. The pupile
 of Miss Whiton's room have made g
 pretty story of the evolution of our flag and representations of the several designs from the first Indian flag, SC called, to the forty-four star banner.
 Several large photographs of school buildings and special rooms also SC with the collection. There are besides
 thirty volumes of sample work ir
