THE SIMPLEToNs, a new novel by Thomas Har- dy, will be begun in the December Number, 1894, and continued to November, 1895. Whoever may be ones favorte among English novelists, it will be conceded by all critics that Thomas Hardy stands foremost as master artist in fiction, and THE SIMPLETONs may be expected to arouse en- thuSiaSm not inferior in degree to that which has marked TRILBY-the most successful story of the year. Another leading feature will be the PERSONAL RECOLLECTIONS OF JOAN OF ARC, by the Sieur Louis de Conte, Her Page and Secretary, under which guiSe the most popular of living American magazine writers will present the story of the Maid of Orleans In the January Number will appear a profuSely illustrated pa per on CHARLESTON AND THE CAROLINAS, the flrSt of series of Southern Papers.
 Northern Africa is attracting more attention than at any other time since it was the seat o1 empires. The next volume of HARPER'S MAG ANNE will contain four illustrated articles on this region, and three of them will depict the present life there. Julian Ralph will prepare for the MAGAZINE series of eight stories, de- picting typical phases of CHINESE LIFE ANT MANNERS. Besides the long stories, there will begin in the January Number the first chapters of a THREE-PART NOVELETTE,, by Richard Hard ing Davis-the longest work yet attempted by this writer. Complete short stories by popular writers will continue to be a feature Of the MAG

THE speakership of the next Connecti- cut house of representatives is live question just now. Two leading candi- dates are in Representative Fes- senden of Stamford and Elmer of Middle town. Also others are mentioned-as Warner of Putnam and Green of Norwich, but these latter are probably aiming more for the recognition they may get Gas con- testants) in the makeup of committees, etc., than with expectation of winning. Mir. Fessenden is a lawyer, who, without being an office holder, has long been re- garded as a power in politics, and one who, when he might chose to enter upon g. political career, as it was assumed that he at some time would, would enter some where very near the head of the class. He Is brilliant and capable and will hence forth be more than even a figure in state and national politics. He would make a capable speaker, and, if elected, we hope the conservative one needed to govern body so strong in it's majority as the next house will be. MT. Elmer, by his speech favoring Candidate Coffin in the state con- vention showed himself to be an eloquent speaker, and in the timely discussion which followed, keen intellect and quick ness of perception. Each candidate has strong backing and either will we'll fill the place of speaker. The contest promises to be an interesting one.

THE movement to abolish the office of county commissioner gains momentum. So far as 1t is confession that good men cannot be found to fill the office we op- pose 1t. But if continued it will be bet ter to have the boards chosen by the peo- pie rather than by log-rolling caucuses. The county commissioners have to do a work that can, most of it, be assigned to other persons, but on the whole is con- venient and needed body-if composed of upright men. That the Hartford county board has been found wanting in moral qualities is a reflection upon itself, and perhaps upon the plan of their selection. One fact brought out by the present cy- clone of public opinion is that the public favors increasing rather than reducing the present rate of license fees. Those who don't want to pay a round sum for the privilege have more honorable methods of earning livelihood open to them, and are therein on an equality with better men, who don't want to sell rum. If any change Is made let the law fix an arbi- trary fee for license, fix reasonable pop ulation limit for saloons, and assign to each county a term of superior court to hear and act upon applications.

Springfield Union: The "change" in New York has given the public school teachers courage to speak out against po- litieal control and boss favoritism. The hand of Tammany has been upon the pub lie schools as we'll as all other city insti- tutiOns. Paddy Divers club is said to control, through 8 partisan superintend- ent, the appointment of teachers in it's district, and other similar organizations do the same in other districts. Teachers must keep on good terms with the bosses or get out, and cases have been reported in which teachers have submitted to scan- dalous conditions in order to retain their places. What sort of public schools must those be whose teachers are the creatures of Justice" Paddy Divver?
