BERLIN, Feb. 6.-The emperor last even
ing attended the dinner given by Chan
eellor Won Caprivi to members Of parlia-
ment and delivered speech. In this he
announced the fact that the treaty of
commerce with Russia had been signed.
His majesty said that never before had the
reichstag 20 make decision fraught with
such important consequences as this
treaty. Its rejection. he said, would be
inevitably followed by tariff war, and
at not remote period by real war.
LET every deputy" he continued,
''realize his responsibility. The favora-
bic terms of the treaty were entirely due
to the personal Intervention OF the car
and his strong love of peace. The treaty
is marked throughout by love and peace.

dent Of the reichstag submitted to the
emperor the grievances of the farmers
against the financial reform bill His
majesty listened attentively, and then re-
peated that the passage of the bill was
of high political necessity. BY passing
IL the reichstag would win the lasting
gratitude of the Germans, and he con-
cluded by saying that patriotism aud re-
sponsibility forbade its rejection.

A we'll known physician who has D

we'll known physician who has per- formed several operations for the removal of the vermiform appendix said recently that he had not found seed in the ap- pendix of a single one of his dases. He said: IA small bit of digested matter gets into the sac if the neck of it is open enough to receive it It may remain for years and cause no trouble, and again ap- pendicitis may result immediately. In a healthy patient an operation for the ail- ment is successful four out of five times. 3 The doctor also said that people should not give up the luxury of delicious fruit simply because they feared the seed might cause appendicitis. He thinks people can eat grapes, now that the season is near at hand, just as safely as ever, and need not fear the ailment. Appendicitis is among the rarest of diseases in any event.

Courant: A natural enemy of the grub which has been destroying the foliage of Hartford's elms this summer has been found. It is the grub of the large lady bird, or ladybug, as it is sometimes call ed. Frequently of late the ladybird grubs have been noticed feeding upon the de- structive little worms. The ladybird and it's grub are harmless to plant life and should never be killed. Their food is in- sect life, and they destroy destructive plant parasites.

A FEW days ago it was thought that the house and senate would get together on the tariff bill. Now it seems less likely, though some sort of fix-up is rather looked for. Meanwhile enc section of the people are hoping that the bill will pass in some shape in order to give business an impetus, while another section hope that the bill may be killed that business may resume it's Mckinley bill force. There is no doubt that either result will be a benefit to many kinds of business. Ger tainty is preferable to an uncertainty, but what was the matter with the certainty we had before MT. Wilson took up the matter?
 SELDOM has a more narrowing story appeared in the state papars than that oi the death of three little sons of James w. Ganion of Hartford, an engineer on the Consolidated railroad. The three little lads, the oldest being years of age, dis. appeared last Thursday. Search for them was made by the parents, assisted by the police, and by Friday the whole city was excited over the story. The river was dragged, and all the country about Hart ford was searched and inquired over, but not trace of the lost could be found further than that they had been seen in the railroad yard not far from their resi- dence, and but short time after being miCSinO in hn vii init itxyh bod been looked into. Finally the chief of po- lice, convinced that they had not gone far from that place, directed a closer search of that locality. A stench coming from a caboose car on Sunday led to the dis covery, in little closet, of the three de- caying bodies. The closet was just big enough for the three to crawl in, and but five feet in height. After going in, as they had evidently done for the purpose of hiding in fear of some approaching foot steps, the incline of the car caused the door to shut, the spring bolt catching and effectually fastening them in. It could have taken but few minutes for suffoca- tion to follow their entombment. They had torn their clothes from their bodies in the agony of suffocation. The bodies were fearful sight, and the friends were mercifully kept from seeing them. All were buried in one grave. Being young they had never received the rites of the Catholic church which would entitle them to religious services at their burial, but centuries ago a greater than any earthly ecclesiastic had spoken "Suffer little chil- dren to come unto me-" and tears and si- lent prayers without number went with these little ones to the gates which are never shut against those who come as lit tie children.

The Chicago Tribune tells story of twenty-five carriage painters who had been working for c. P. Kimball & Go. of Chi cago, who ''struck, in sympathy with the Pullman strikers, but they had not been out of the factory an hour before twenty five striking Pullman painters had applied for their places and obtained them, and are now probably sympathizing with the union fellows who went out in obedience to the Debs-Sovereign-H Howard combina- ton in order to express sympathy with the Pullman men. The twenty-five men on the outside are boiling at the unsympa- thetic conduct of the twenty-five Pullman fellows on the inside and at the results of their clear waste of sympathy. They have lost their jobs and their wages, and there is only vanity and vexation of spirit in the thought of sympathy"

A portion of the upper family of the Canterbury, N. H. Shakers, have decided to consolidate with the Shakers of Enfield Conn. ,and they are expected to arrive in about weeks time to the number of 40 people. This addition will so increase the Enfield Shaker society here as to ren- der it larger than that at Lebanon, N. Y. which is now the largest in the country. The reason given for this exodus from Canterbury by member of society is that |. "After busy life of century the society finds itself non-supporting. While all work diligently, both brothers and sisters, there is little or no market for product. The taxes are about $1 ,OO0 a year. Since the location of Canterbury they have taken 1000 poor boys, sheltered, clothed, fed and educated them, and nothing has been received for any of these outlays as at least one half have voluntarily gone out into the world when old enough to take care of themselves"

MR. DEBs, having recently occasion to go from Chicago to Terra Haute with his family, chose Pullman car for his state carriage, and calmly went to bed on a Pullman couch. Consistent forever!

Fortunately for him the Pull mans don't wage wal in his way. If they did, something would surely happen to Debs in the transit.

The philosophers, domestic and foreign, who month or two ago were drawing such painful lessons from the Coxey move ment, as showing tendency toward dis integration of the American republic, must feel little silly to learn that "GeneraP' Coxey has deserted his army at Hyatts- vile, Md, and told them to look out for themselves as best they may. He and his son have gone back to Massillon, O., some of his followers have already been sent to prison as vagrants and the rest are hustling for blackberries as the only ra- tions now available. The worst of 1t is that the professional tramps and adven- turers had nearly all previously deserted, and the fragment of men left were mostly those who had an honest and sincere pur- pose in joining the movement, men to whom begging and tramping is not nat ural sphere of life.

WITHOUT waiting for declaration of war, Japanese and Chinese war vessels have exchanged" hostilities, to the great detriment of the latter, the Chen Yung, the larger and newest of the Chinese iron clads, being sunk, and two cruisers cap- tured. John Bull is also stirred up be- cause the Row Shong, an English vessel, employed by the Chinese government to transport troops, has been sunk by the Japanese. It is claimed that. she bore the British flag, and that as war was not yet declared she had the right to trans port Chinese soldiers. The Japanese claim that she did not fly the British en- sign. It would be more to the credit of England not to have the British flag so often mixed up in other nations fights, as it was, for instance, in the Kearsage-Ala, bama duel, and in other incidents of the rebellion.

A destructive hail, wind and rain-storm passed over the towns of Wethersfield and Glastonbury, Tuesday afternoon, do- ing immense damage to the tobacco and onion seed crop of those towns. Whole fields of tobacco were laid fiat by the wind, and the hail riddled the leaves so that much of the crop will be plowed in without harvesting. The onion seed crop was cut to pieces in much the same man. ner, and will be nearly a total loss. Trees were blown down and enormous quanti- ties of water fell, as if from cloudburst. The loss is estimated at between 50,00O and $100,000, but detailed reports may make 1t larger.
