bones of the men were found. The

TWO coon REFLECTIONS.

The caucuses Of the Republican mem- bers Of the Court Of Common Council will be held this evening and they will be very interesting affairs. What will happen is not very clear. except that Alderman Macdonald will be nominated for president of the Board Of Aldermen and Attorney William II. Ely for Cor poration Counsel. These nominations will both be conspicuously meritori- ous. Alderman Macdonald has made q fine record on the floor Of the Alder mems chamber. and he has shown un- usual fitness to be in the chair of the presiding officer of that body. He is thoroughly acquainted with all the rules that govern aldermanic proceed ings and he knows how to apply them. He is wide-awake. prompt in decision, fair-minded and good-natured. He will make as good president as the board has ever had.
 MT. Ely, who Is to be nominated for Corporation Counsel, Is a lawyer of solid learning and successful practice. The legal interests of the city will be safe in his hands and he will attend to them carefully and faithfully. He will be very reliable and useful public officer

there would be more work done, There
 might be. but does the courant expect the members to give up one Of their most prized privileges for the sake Of doing the public work at more rapid rate? If it does il expects too much of Connecticut human nature, And per- haps the trouble is not entirely due to free rides. II may Dc that there is something in the air of Hartford that tends to delay and proerastination. II has lately been shown that IL is n lit- erary town. and the literary atmosphere is not favorable to hurry. If Hartford were more of a business place the leg islature might catch little of the busi- ness spirit. We fear that long sessions are a part of the penalty that must be paid for making Hartford the sole cap ital.

 "Yes."

 Yes sir" replied the editor, deeply gratlhed, for 1t was not often that citI- zens came in to commend the editori- als. What was the subject of the ar ticle which struck you so favorably, may l ask?"
 Tt was about the gold question"
 "Oh, yes. l remember now. That editorial involved q great deal of re- search, sir, but never spare any pains or begrudge the time thoroughly to in- vestigate an important subject"
 You dealt with the gold supply, and I think you used an expression some thing like this: "We have now s2S7,- 100000 in gold coin.' think have quoted the amount just as you had it?"
 You have, sir. My authority for the statement was the very best obtaina- ble, sir"
 No doubt, no doubt. I did not come to dispute your statement. but to take advantage of it, sir"
 'In what way?"
 "Well, I'm the new collector for MT. Chops, the butcher, and 1t struck me that while you had so much gold on hand you might be willing to settle a little bill of $4.6S which has been run ming two or three months"
 The editor silently counted out the money and took a receipt.

Holidays.
From Harper's Bazar.1 1

lfrom Harpers BaZar.l
 Weeks before Christmas the holiday feeling creeps into the consciousness of the most apathetic, sets the blood mov- ing at a quicker pace, fills us with a strange new pleasure, and binds us closer to our fellow-men. Everybody feels 1t. Richer or poorer, with money to spend, or struggling for money to keep the wolf from the door, the subtle gladness of the holiday season affects us all. Christmas is coming, is the tune which wakens the dance in the weariest foot, and for the hour restores to the most world-worn his childish an- ticipations of great overf1owing delight at Chtistmas-tide.
 One sees the reflection of this holiday feeling in the keen faces of business men as they join the procession of home-going folk in the late afternoon. Ordinarily people rebel against being loaded down With bundles, and your city dweller superbly has his sent home; but in the joyful weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas this is otherwise, and no suburban resident vending his way at night-fall to boat or train more cheerfully bows his shoul- der to the burden of packages, large and small. than does paterfamilias on his way from downtown to the neigh borhood of Central Park.
 To carry bundles is tIhe thing to do at and before the holidays. And not only must one surrender ones self to the cheery bearing Of these, one must as well see to the disposition of them once they are safe at. home. It is only when the holiday feeling is strong within rNm that the respectable elderly citi- zen tiptoes softly up his own steps, and stealthily turning the key in his own door, lets himself into his own house with the mysterious secrecy of a bur glar The holiday feeling is alone re- sponsible for a great deal of plotting and planning and innocent conspiracy on the part of mothers. usually as transpanently truthful as the mirrors into which they daily glance. But we are in the same beatific condition, the young and the old and the middle aged; we are gradually, day by day, growing into the state of sparkling and effervescent gayety which befts the Christmas mood and temper.

A Great Thir" for Wood.

From the New York Mail and Express.l
 Ex-Congressman Ben Wood tells characteristic anecdote of his meeting with James Gordon Bennett, the elder.
 MT. Wood took an active part in lo- cal politics before he was of age. One day he was traduced, as he thought, by a newspaper reporter, and, after the fashion of those days, sought personal satisfaction by giving the reporter physical castigation. MT. Bennett in the Herald took the matter up and roasted Mr. Wood editorially. The next day the latter went to the edito- rial office firmly resolved to beat MT. Bennett, too. He found the editor at his desk, and, thrusting a copy of the morning paper under his nose, said:
 q want to know who wrote that ar ticle, sir."
 Mr. Bennett laid down his pen, and looking up at him curiously and be- ndgnantly, asked:
 Are you Ben Wood s
 Yes sir; that is my name. 4.
 well, Wood, how, old are you?"
 T am nearly twenty t
 Indeed" rejoined MT. Bennett. with the broad Scotch accent which will not attempt to reproduce; well, MT. Wood, don't you think 1t Is q great thing for man as young as you are to be dignifed and advertised by 'a no- tice in the editorial page of the Her aid? My dear sir, I'congratuIate you. (
 MT. Wood was taken aback with this new view of theathing. The two men had friendly chat. and the man who had come in angry went away in high good humor and with the editQr's bless ing. " a NJ SsSs sSs s 44ss51Bs s.s s S
