ROSE MoSESTHEIM. TILLIE ASHLEY.
 tions have reached that stage where all arrangements except the final details have been completed. The contestants will bc Miss Rose Moscnthcim of St. Louis and Miss Tillic Ashley of Hartfsrd. Tac race will take place carly in October on tho riv CT at St. Louis, and the course will bc n mile and half straight away from the Merchants bridge. Tho trophy will prob ably be n diamond bracelet. Fred kocnig the champion amateur oarsman of Amer fen, and tho Western Rowing club have Miss Mosenthoim in chargr. Miss Ashley is member of n ladies' rowing club of Hartford. Shc is being trained by local oarsmcn.
 Female bout races arc certainly a novel
 ty in this country, nothing of the kind ever having taken place except among
 boarlers at seaside resorts. They of course
 were of purely local character. Proba- bly, tho lack of muscle is the reason. This defect. however, is easily overcome in the present match. Miss MuScnthcim weighs l3l pounds but will reduce tO l25 for tho
 race. She is feet inches in height, and
 her arm measures II r inches around the bicCps and an inch less around the fore arm She rows Fl strokes to the minute. Miss Ashley has an advantage of l3 pounds in wright. Nupuvcr, she takes 36 strokes to tho minute Shc Is n very pretty blond, while her competitor k . de- cidcd brunette. As in up to date bicycle riding the conventional dress of tho pe- riod will be discarded. Tights will re- place the skirts, and close fitting arm less and dcCullCtc jersey, bcltcd close at the waist will answer in place of n blouse. A cap and canvas shoes will complete the outfit of each young lady.

THE PHILOSOPHER.

Loss of sincerity Is loss of vital power.
 It is as great to bo n woman as to be e man.
 Tn" man who does most has the least ..-. - talk about what he does
 more readily confess to errors, mis- r..,as and shortcomings in our conduct than in our thought.
 Be not ashamed and apologize for what you are found doing. More often be ashamed at that which you leave undone. With moro patience men endure the losses that bcfall them by mere casualty than the damages which they sustain by injustice.
 Oppose kindness to perverscness. The heavy sword will not cut soft silk. By using sweet words and gentleness you may lead an elephant with a hair.
 Who has not experienced how, on nearer acquaintance, plainnes" becomes beautitied and beauty loses its charm, according tC the quality of heart and mindf
 Avarice makes n man n pcevish and cruel master, a severe parent, an unsocia- blc husband, a distant and distrustful friend and causes often an unhappy home.
 Remember that if the opportunities fol great deeds should never come the oppor- tunity for good deeds is renewed for yoC day by day. Tho thing for us to long fol is the goodness, not the glory.
 Hold fast to love. If men wound thy heart, let them not sour or imbitter 1t. Let them not shut up or narrow 1t. Let them only expand 1t moro and moro and be always able to say, with St. Paul, My heart is enlarged. ''-Montreal Star.

SOLDIERS; HOME CROWDED.
The Next Legislature wnl be Asked to
 Furnish More Accommodations.

The Next Legislature wnI be Asked to
 Furnish More Accommodations.
 For some months the crowded condition of the soldiers home at Noroton has been impressed upon the minds of members of the G. A. k. posts and of the veteran unions command.
 It is not at all unlikely that the incom- ing legislature will be asked to provide an appropriation to build additional accom- mo2ations at the home. As the years roll by the number of veterans who desire to pass their last days in this quiet and com fortable spot, is many more than the size of the present quarters will contain.
 As matters now stand the home is filled to its utmost capacity and there yet re- main twenty-five worthy veterans who have regurlarly filed applications. and who are entitled by law to the right to enter who are debarred for lack of room. It is a matter that shoald receive the earliest attention as the conditions are not likely to be more favorable as the years go on on the contrary the conditions are likely tc get worse.
 There is no doubt that if the matter il brought before the legislature it will ac promptly and give the necessary money tC build additional quarters. Connecticut has been generous to the old soldiers anC she will not be backward in this instance.

 A Chicago astronomer has discovered Q large green patch on the moon and cannot determine whether it is a meadow or a forest. Doubtless it is 0 section of tho green cheese which credulous people have long looked upon as tho material from which the moon was constructed--St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
 It used to bo said that if there wero a building on the moon as large as St. Paul's cathedral in London it could be seen by Lord Rosso's telescope. No struc- ture of such size has been discovered, but Professor Gathmann has discovered grass, not green grass. but burned up grass.

A Radical Reduction in Charges Ar5 nounoed by the Southern New Engiand

A Radical Reduction in Charges Ars nounced by the Southern New England Telephone Co. v.
 Apropos of the petition of the recently organized company for permission to erect poles and string wires for another teler, phone service in Waterbury, the following from the Connecticut Associated Press to the DEMOCRAT is of special interest:

The same will effect majority of sub scribers of the compsny and has been brought about by the demand for a cheaper service, and the change will meet with much satisfaction.
 In an interview to-day, Mir Baker said the service would to be improved. Old fashioned telephones will be further dis carded. and the company will put up none but metallic circuits, and solid back trans mitters hereafter, which are the most effectual instruments. In New Haven, Hartford, Bridgeport and Waterbury, the price for residences on a circuit has been s65 per year. A reduction will be made to $50. For residences on a single wire a re- duction is to be made from $50 to S65, the rates for business houses remaining the same. In second class offices where there are from 100 to 300 subscribers a reduc dence rate from s65 to $50. And the busi ness rate on circuit wires will be de creased from $50 to S60.

The Flag of Washington.

BY AN AMERICAN CATHOLIC PRIEST, D. .c. 1855 They say do not love thee.
 Flag of my native land; Whose meteor folds above me,
 To the full breeze expand; Thy broad stripes proudly streaming
 And thy stars so brightly gleaming. They say would forsake thee,
 Should some dark cricis lower; That recreant, should make thee
 Crouch to n foreign power; Seduced by license ample.
 On thee blest flag to trample. They say that bolts of thunder,
 Cast in the forge of Rome. May rise and bring thee under,
 Flag of my native home, And with one blow dissever
 My heart from thee forever. False are the words they utter;
 Ungenerous their brand; And rash the oaths they mutter.
 Flag of my native land. Whilst still in hope above me
 Thou wavest-and love thee! Gods my loves first duty,
 To whose eternal name Be praise for all thy beauty,
 Thy grandeur and thy fame: But ever have I reckoned
 Thine native flag my second. Woe 10 the foe or stranger,
 Whose sacrilagious hand Would touch thee or endanger.
 Flag of my native land. Though some would fain discard me.
 Mine should be raised to guard three. Then wave. thou first of banners, And in thy genial shade Let creeds. opinions. manners, Promiscuously be laid; And there. all discord ended, Our hearts and souls be blended. Stream on, stream on before us, Thou labarum of light, While in one general chorus, Our vows to thee we plight; Unfaithful to three-never;
 My native flag forever Communicated by W.
