FERDINAND WARD, of Grant and Ward fame, made sensation in Thompson last week by trying to kidnap his son. The lad on the death of his mother, while the father was in prison, was put in care of his uncle in Thompson. He will have a large property when he reaches maturity, so that his father wishes to get him, and his uncle as naturally to keep him. He was picked up in the streets at Thompson by stranger and hurried away to Web ster, Mass. where his father awaited him. So close was the pursuit that before be- ing put into his fathers hands he was talk en from his captor and carried back to Thompson. The father expresses de- termination to get possession of the boy. An event that is likely to furnish more exciting incidents will be public hearing over the appointment of guardian fo1 the child. This move was decided upon after consultation between the counsel on the case, Mir. McKean of New York and Charles E. Searles of Putnam. The trial will be public and will be held in the town hall in Thompson. There promises to be more sensational disclosures in the case at that time.

The Fair.

Stafford Springs, Conn.,, Oct. 9th, 10th and 11th.
 Only three weeks now to the fair-the Stafford Springs fair-the event of the year for Holland county and adjacent country What these fairs have been in past years is the talk of the country. Go where you will and mention the subject of fairs and you will hear the Stafford Springs fairs spoken of as the standard thing. It sets the pace for all neighbor- ing fairs, and the success of these is al- ways guaged by that of the fair. This is bragging, but the Stafford fair is some- thing to brag of. The managers mean to take no retrograde steps in 1894. We have before particularized most of the at fractions.
 Tuesday, the first day, will be one of the best days. Make a note of this. There are no dull days at the Stafford faii. A purse of $15O will be trotted for by horses owned and kept in Holland county from Aug. 1, with record of no better than 250. There will be five bicy cle races, as before announced, with prizes aggregating $334 in value.
 On Wednesday Newton, the champion mile rider, Class A, of Connecticut, will ride an exhibition mile against the best record of the track.
 Allen Atkins, of the Palmer bicycle club, will ride one-half mile backwards, also do trick and fancy riding. He is young lad, and holds the worlds cham pionship record for backward riding, ?. 13ss for half mile, the fastest time made pre- vious to his record being 2.10.
 There will also be trotting of 2.27 and 2. B classes for purses of $25O each. This will also be cattle day, and some fine stock will be exhibited.
 On Thursday the 2.45 and 2.18 classes of trotting and pacing horses will be put on, purses $25O each.
 On each day balloon and parachute exhibit will be made by two of the best aeronauts of the country, the Davis Broth CTS, also a rapidly succeeding program of novelties will fill time between racing events on each day, among these being Prof. Harding and An Sid aorobats, with Miss Millie Olive, who juggles with knives, lamps, balls, etc. Delavoye and Fritz will give their stage comedy with a won- derfully constructed house, giving scope for clown acts. Baldwin and Daley give difficult feats of tumbling and juggling. The Howes, champion hat spinners and jugglers, will also have place on the program. Everybody has heard of the eccentric, irrepressible Dr. Mary Walker. Who she is, what she is, and what she be- lieves, will be demonstrated in addresses made by her on the two days of the fair.
 So much for the variety features. The legitimate agricultural exhibit will be up to the standard, if possible to bring it there. Liberal increases are made over any former years in amount of premiums offered, the increase being all along the line.
 The poultry exhibit is under the same excellent management as in the past. This feature, great show in itself, will, as before, attract fine exhibits and sharp competition, as premium gained at the Stafford fair means something among hen fanciers all over New England.
 Finally-come and see the crowd. You don't often get chance to see such mass outside of the large cities.

The Willimantic city authorities re- gently purchased for $1OO the water in the West Ashford ponds and let it run in to the river. They overlooked the fact that delivery is very essential element in the sale of personal property, and as a result thought a pig in the bag" This large volume of water had to pass over thirty miles of exposed river bottom, and the sun-heated boulders and dry sand drank up all the water of Ashford's ponds and is still thirsty. In the meantime the water at the pumping station reservoir continues to decrease in bulk, and on Thursday reached the lowest point since it's creation, being sixty-six inches below the crest of the dam. By damming the water in the raceway the pumps were submerged and made to operate so that about thir- teen feet of water is now in the distribut- ing reservoir on Hosmer Mountain.

The public schools of the country are just now beginning again their new year. Though the newspapers make little &C., count of it, yet how significant the event. What if one had the power of vision to overlook the whole land and watch all these thousands, these millions, of boys and girls as leaving their homes they make the daily pilgrimage to the school, and could read in their countenances their thoughts and aims, as one reads a book, how impressive the sight. By the last census there were in our schools 584, ,922 teachers. Of this number 238, ,397 were women. Whether women vote or not, here is very great factor in the shaping of the national destiny. Once in while minister in the public prayer, Sunday morning, remembers the public school, it's pupils and its teachers. Maybe it were well if he did this oftener.
 A nephew of the duke of Wellington tells the story that the great general re- quired everybody in the house on Sunday to go to church and one occasion guest said that he was Catholic and there was no church of the kind in the neighbor- hood. After inquiring the duke learned that there was Catholic church thirty miles away: He immediately ordered a coach and four to appear at the door, and then informed his guest that he would be driven to church. As it turned out the guest was not Catholic, and had to take sixty mile ride for attempting to dodge a family custom. The duke may have been little arbitrary in such matters, but his custom was better than that of so many church members who make the presence of visitors an excuse for staying at home on Sunday.

Over One Hundred and Forty
in America.
APOSTLE WEBB AND MAHOMMED
The Rapid Increase in the Growtla h
of some KellSrOns--Dne DenOm-
inatIOn. the Santiemanians, Has
Entirely Disappeared From
the United States Etc.

Brillat-Savarin, who complained of the
United States nearly 70 years ago be-
cause he said it possessed hundred re-
ligions and only one gravy, would find
if he lived in our time that his estimate
in regard to religions was far too low,
however we may have progressed in
the matter of gravies. The census of
church denominations for 1890 makes the
number Of different sects 140, not count
ing Islamism, which made its start in
this country through Mohammed Webb
after the census was taken. However,
Apostle Webb's church is very small,
numbering at present only himself, he
not having made one single convert, so
far as appears.
Of all the different sects, however,
Mr.. Fl. K. Carroll, who writes of them
in The Forum, tells us that 76 have a
following of less than 2,4O0 members
each. One denomination that was on
the record 10 years ago has quite disap-
peared in 1890, and that is the Sande-
manians. Who were the Sandemanians
anyhow? Most Of the small sects are
"chips off Methodism, Presbyterianism
Lutheranism and other well known bod
les" There are 10 different kinds of
Mennonites.
Mr.. Carroll says the subjects about
which warning church people argue have
changed greatly. They used to be doc
trinal points, such as free will, the fed
eral headship Of Adam, etc. Now no.
body thinks much about the headship of
Adam. Christian believers are exercis-
ed in mind in our time chiefly over the
plenary inspiration of the Scriptures and
the higher criticism of the Bible Mi
croscopic points of difference have shriv-
eled in Importance, and evangelical
Christians are nearer a common ground
of faith than they ever were before.
What Mr.. Carroll calls nonevangelical
Professionalism includes apparently the
Unitarians chiefly. Of these nonevan-
gelical Protestants there are 1884, 900; of
evangelical ones, 13,870,0OO. In works
of Christian charity and helpfulness to
humanity Mr.. Carroll finds that the
evangelical denominations have made
great advance, while their foreign mis-
sionary work has not lapsed or Jagged.
The membership Of these denominations
is everywhere larger than it was. They
are full of life, and there is no sign of
their decline in either material OF. spirit
ual strength.

NOT PLAIN ENGLISH
G. Stanley Hall Writes in
Many Languages.
He GIVES SOME STRONG ADVICE
Tells How Careful Parents should
Ese III Rearing Their Children he
tween the Ages of Fifteen ana
TWenty-five-gnstr to
Plain American People.

President @. Stanley Hall Of Johns
Hopkins university has only one fault in
the world, but that is a very bad one.
He does not know how to write English.
That is to say, perhaps he knows how,
but scorns to do it. In paper in The
Forum on the training Of young people
he meanders into the by paths Of many
languages Greek, Latin, French and
German-occasionally forgetting himself
Pnd dipping into English, as Mr.. Wegg
dropped into poetry. If President G.
Stanley Hall were writing for a Sanskrit,
Greek or Latin magazine, it would be
quite proper for him to write in these
tongues, but hesprofesses to be instruct
ing plain American people on how to
deal with their children in the perilous
years from Is to 25, when the youth are
passing through what Mr.. Hall calls
their ''ephebic" stage. .+.....
His essay is a plea for the slow and
careful development Of the young at this
age. They should be trained to active
athletic exercise and outdoor life, above
all not letting them be hurried, but en-
couraging them to unfold naturally, in
nocently and healthfully, as a flower IN
folds. Even religious experiences of the
violent sort should be avoided. 'sTo pre-
scribe a strong set Of feelings at this age
may introvert attention on physical
states, increase passional activities, issue
in a sort of self Irritation Or abnormal
self consciousness or lapse to the supreme
selfshness of incipient and often unsus-
pected hysteria''
Then President Hall quotes something
from the Aristotelian katharsis. We are
sure the katharsis is all right Mr. Hall
does not believe in making tabula rase
of all settled consensus; neither does he
want young men led toward paranoias,
and he says they should not be made So
hpsistic. With all our heart, Mr.. Hall.
It's the worst thing in the world to make
a young man solipsistic and lead him to-
ward paranoias. There is only one thing
worse than that, and it is to pretend to
write a paper for a popular magazine
that is intended to instruct the people
and then insult the people by filling the
paper with obscure and foreign words,
some Of which not even Websters Die
tionary gives the meaning Of. You
ought to be ashamed of yourself, G..
Stanley Hall. You ought for a fact. If
you cannot write English, it were better
not to write at all.
