DANGEROUS CRITICISM.

DR.. Hutchins, in his Thanksgiv-
ing sermon, said that this commu-
nifty had been too much praised by
visitors, and writers. Another
divine, it is reported, has recently
remarked that "this whole town
needed re-baptism."
Our community is a peaceable
one, but it has the ferocious capa-
city of the worm for turning at last.
Free speech, on some points, is
dangerous.
A stranger stopped off at a sta
ton in the Colorado desert, where
there were five shanties and one
grocery store, and asked, "What is
the price of lots here?"
Groceryman: "One thousand dol
lars apiece. Reckon ther'l be a
city here in two years."
Stranger: "'Pears to me the
price is awful high. Guess you've
got boom skippin' around here"
Groceryman: "Look here, stran-
ger; our people amt accustomed to
bein' criticised. Any man who
can't see the gol darned goodness
of this town, will get conniption fits
at the end of a rope. You can't
play this refined community for a
sucker by jumpin' on prices.

RULE OF THE MINORITY.

Under the amendments to the
Constitution, recently adopted by
the State of New York, is one re-
apportioning the State, so that the
Democrats are left out in the cold.
Even if the Democratic majority
in the State should be over 10000,
the Legislature would remain Re-
publican.
This arrangement is very cute"
but, somehow, it knocks in the
head that old and greasy "palla-
dunn of our liberties" the rule of
the majority. The n. Y. Nation,
and some other papers, conducted
on the theory of abstract political
principles, have been crashing
their teeth at our little COM
munity, and they call our leaders
thieves and conspirators, because
minority, comprising nearly all the
wealth and intelligence, upset a
Monarchy which was absolutely
pagan and corrupt, but had behind
it, apparently only, a majority of
ignorant and irresponsible people.
Now that the great and intelli-
gent people of New York-the State
which holds more wealth than any
other State-have, after careful
consideration, openly abandoned
the rule of the majority, the press,
which moves on the higher plane"
should stop abusing US, because we
did the same thing, and, We may
say with some conceit, anticipated
their own work. The Nation will
hardly make much Roadway, in
trying to make US feel miserable,
because we would not let the ma
jority rale us with a lottery ring,
when it cannot make the people of
a proud State feel miserable be-
cause they have done just what we
have done.
The Nation may tell the astound-
ing majority, of that State, that
they are, as it calls us, "thieves
and pirates" who have robbed the
Democrats of their rights; but that
majority will simply smile, and
reply, care you really in pain ?"

LA BELLE BERNARDINE;
OR
THE BANKER'S BRIDE.
4 Tale Of Honolulu.
CHAPTER /.
A BLIGHTED LIFE.

A BLIGHTED LIFE.
Bernardine, the Bankers Bride, the
bride of few short hours, paced ner-
vously up and down her sumptious
boudoir. Her eyes were unnaturally
bright, her cheeks pale and tear
stained-she who had thought she
would have been so happy!
As for as the man who watched her
with the anxiety he could not conceal,
what was his wealth to him now?
"Merciful Heavens!" was his thought;
she weeps, and / would give my mil
lions to bring back the smile on that
fair face. What can have changed
her thus?'
Suddenly the fair girl pauses and
gazes reproachfully at him: douglas
Blanchard," she says; when L con,
scented to be your wife, you promised
me all that refinement could wish and
wealth could purchase"
81 didn he says. "Look around
you. See on every side the sump-
tuousness and gilded elegance with
which you are environed."
"You have trifled with me-" she
says coldly.
II pledge you my word" he an
swers earnestly; II have fulfilled
every promise. No pains or expense
have been spared; the decorations OF
this mansion are palatial; the old
world and the new have been ran
sacked for rare and costly furnishings.
More than 1 have done is beyond the
magic of the wand of wealth."

mans voice is firm; but look of
wistful sadness is in those large blue
eyes. douglas Blanchard" she re-
peats: stIHe Linen in the closet is not

trayed; told them to get the BEST"

The sauce pans and fry pans

rious roads commenting the police force for their work. The mayor said that the officers of the A. R. U. had given him in- formation leading to the arrest of rioters. He denied that he had applied to Debs for permission to move certain trains. Mayor Hopkins was then ex- cused, and Chairman Wright read the following:
 This commission has now heard all witnesses who have been suggested by the various parties interested in this controversy, except few whose testi- mony would be simply accummulative upon points that have been covered. At the opening of the hearing 1t was stated that the committee would de- eide at It's close whether 1t had time at its disposal to listen to any parties or all who had remedies for labor ques- tions to offer or suggestions as to legis- lation and matters of that character. So much time has been taken up in hear ing testimony on the facts relating to the latter difficulties that the committee cannot take up the secondary branch of the investigation.
 "The commission will adjourn to meet in Washington September 26, at which time 1t will be glad to receive in writ ing any suggestions as to the questions involved In the late controversies. It will at that time hear any parties who may desire to be heard relative to the facts involved, and it may, after care full examination of the testimony which has been offered at this hearing con- clude to call further witnesses to SUD- plement any testimony which has been given on either side. The hearing stands adjourned until September 26."
 Chairman Wright left for Washington this afternoon. Nothing official has been given out as to the views formed by the committee, but it is believed that the chief recommendation will be for the creation of state board of arbitra- tion. The licensing of engineers con- ductors and firemen will probably also be recommended.
 It is said that MT. Pullman, the Man agers' association, Marshal Arnold and his deputies and the American Rail- way union will all be censured for short comings during the strike. If the com mission is guided by the testimony it cannot help recommending government ownership of railroads, wherever possi- ble. The commissoin realizes, however, that this cannot be proposed as an im- mediate remedy.

ATANDERBILT SEPARATION.

William K. and His Wife Will Live
 Apart-Incompatability. sa
 New York, Aug. 30 It is announced that William K. Vanderbilt, second son of the late William H. Vanderbilt, has at last decided to separate from his wife, who was Miss Ava Smith of Mo bile, dashing society girl, whom he married in 1878. She will take the chil- dren. The trouble is incompatability, growing out of Smith family troubles. There is. credible authority for the statement that Mrs. Vanderbilt will receive from her husband SIG, ,Oo0, 900 and will retain the custody of her children. She already owns Marble House, The Cliffs, Newport, which cost $1,O00,OO and has other property given to her by her husband.
 When William H. Vanderbilt died he wflled S10, ,OO0, 900 outright to each of his his children. The residue of the estate, estimated at $100,ooo, 900, was equally divided between his two oldest sons, Cornelius and William K. Since then 1t is believed to.haye increased largely.

BIG CAMPAIGN GATHERING.
The Coming Ratification Meeting of the
 State Republican League,


 State Republican League.
 The indications are that the Republi- can league ratification meeting to be held in Bridgeport September 25 will be one of the biggest political meetings of the campaign. The committee of ar engagements, consisting of working re- publicans from all sections of the state, are hard at work perfecting arrange ments, and reports received thus far show that there will be many republi- cans present from the four quarters of the state. It has been arranged that the meeting in the afternoon will be one of delegates appointed by clubs or chair men of town committees in towns where there are no clubs and will take the form of business meeting of the State Republican league. In the evening there will be short parade in which delegates and marching clubs from cities in this section of this state will participate, followed by the meeting in the opera house. A fine program is being arranged. All the candidates on the state ticket will be present. It is especially requested that republicans in all parts of the state work to arouse enthusiasm in this meeting. Clubs should not fail to send delegates, and where there are no clubs the chairman of the town committee should select delegates to attend. The meeting is to ratify the selection of the candidates who are to be"elected November 4, and the league IS anxious to give them a grand send-off. To that end all good republicans are requested to put their shoulder to the wheel and push.

TO DECLARE MARTIALLAW.
SECRETARY GRESHAM WOW MEANS STRICT BUSINESS.

IT the Protest of the United States is Not
 Respected There VIII be Trouble and
 Ships of War Will be Ordered to the
 Scene.
 Washington, Aug. 30.-The men who were made prisoners at Blueflelds by the Nicaraguan government, who were taken to Managua and who according to cable reports have been banished, in- cluded the British vice consul at Blue fields, Edwin D. Hatch, who, however. has not been recognized by Nicaragua; J. S. Lompton and E. D. Wiltbank, American planters, who were confessed ly active participants, in the rebellion. Mr. Baker, under instructions from Secretary Gresham, entered @ strong protest against the summary exiling of the Americans. whose property is un- derstood to have been seized until the men had a fair trial. If this protest is not respected the United States has determined to demand the uncondi- tional release of the prisoners, refusing to recognize the right of Nicaragua to virtually declare martial law without warning and the Columbia and Mar blehead will of necessity enforce the demand.
 No doubt is expressed that Nicaragua will eventually agree to the position taken by Secretary Gresham and that a fair trial of all the arrested persons will follow. But the United States in common with England is in hopes that the trouble breeding spirits in the Mos quito reservation will be induced one way or another to take up their resi- dence in some other part of the world and the country be placed in a stable condition of government

It Is Probable That There Will be Cheap CT
 Rates to Europe.
 New York, Aug, 30.-The Hamburg American line made another cut in steerage rates this morning by reduc- ing the price of Q steerage ticket to Southampton by express steamships from $15 to $10. This is the rate that has prevailed on the American line for the past four weeks and that com pany has had more business than 1t could accommodate and has had to turn over its non-English speaking passen- gers to the German line and pay their rates.
 The $10 rate to Southampton has drawn much trade from Liverpool and the Liverpool companies are considering the advisability of g cut to $6.5O.

SLOW TIME ATCHARTER OAK
THE FACING RACES WERE THE MOST
 INTERESTING EVENTS.

In Each Heat the Winner Had Q Lively
 Brush to the Finish, Although She Was
 Headed Several Times Down the Back
 stretch-NellIe 4. Fast In Her Glass.
 Hartford, Aug. 30.-Slow time was made In the races at Charter Oak to- day, although the track seemed to be In good condition after the wetting down 1t got from the early morning rain. As yesterday, so to-day. the pac- ing was the most interesting eventual though 1t was won in straight heats. In each heat the winner had lively brush to the wire, Alcyo, Sterling and Blizzard pushing her alternately. She was headed several times down the back stretch, but managed each time to get out of the bunch in the home stretch and make the wire first. Alcyo finished third in the second heat, but was put back for breaking.
 Although Nellie A. lost the first heat of the Nutmeg stake race to Coinci- dent, she was clearly faster than the other horses in the race. and was not compelled to equal her Terre Haute record of 2:16A. The time was slow for the crack three-year-olds. As Anglin. the owner of the winner. is also her breeder. he received S11,O0O. The stake was divided as follows: To the first horse $l0O00, to the second $4,000, to tha third $3,OOO to the fourth s2,O00, to tha breeder of the winner $lOOO.
 Slow time was made in the fast trot. ting. too, but even at that Muta Wilkes, the favorite, could not keep within half a dozen lengths of the two others. Belle Flower was scarcely pushed by Aunt Delilah, which was nearest up. The race was entirely without interest to the spectators. A match race for $500 side, to be trotted at Charter Oak tomorrow, has been made by Thomas Greenwood of Great Harrington, Mass, with Miss Mullin and Isaac Sanderson of Willimantic, Conn.,. with Moss Rose.
