Two Nights Of Him More Than Enough.
Manchester UniOn.)

Names wickedness has been unmasked
by the Evangelist Association of New
England. Satan has a mortgage on the
Pine Tree State, and his particular seat is
the town of Brookton. The natives of
that benighted hamlet don't do thing
but drink, dance and gamble, according
to Brother Folger. Brother Sutherland
complained that he went up in ARGOS
took county and after two nights was told
that he was not wanted any more. That
is not impossible. About two nights of
Brother Sutherland was about all old
Aroostook could be reasonably expected to
stand. The evangelistic summing up is
that Maine sinners are just like the sin
ners of Boston; more so, if anything. We
are really sorry for Maine, but we guess
the old Pine Tree can stand the exposure

MYSTIC SCHOOL rRAun.
Governor Coffin Pursuing His Tnvestlga.
 ton Vigorously

GoVefnor UoIun Hursulns HIS InVestlRa. ton Vigorously.
 Hartford, May Ex-Governor Coffin is determined to reach the bottom of the
 WhippIe school fraud at Mystic, which he has just unearthed. On Saturday he secured the names of several other be- gus pupils of this institution, among them two girls in New Haven named Sherman and Sparks.
 The school was established by J. c. Wlhipple in Ladyard nearly thirty years ago to educate deaf mutes, and since 1872 had been receiving $175 yearly by state law for every pupil enrolled. In 1894 it was removed to Mystic. Mrs. Margaret Whipple Hammond now owns the school and has been sending in bills for $5000 a year. Governor Coffin sus- pected the first bill he saw from the school in February, which bore no affi- 1avit or sign of auditing A little in- vestigation revealed the fact that the schools owners have been, since 1889 at least, drawing money for pupils who never attended the school or who were there but a few days each year.
 The last bill says they number thirty SGVGIl, WHlle dIl agent Ol Lll6 SONETIlIlG found only twenty-six. For Rosanna Saratin of Danielson0ile $962.5 has been paid, although she has worked in a mill since November, 1889. The same is true of Mabel Aliens case, who has worked in a Willimantic mill since 18S9
 The state auditors have never thor oughly audited the bills, it is said, but they have always been approved and promptly paid heretofore. The state board of charities members say the school serves, no good purpose, giving inferior instruction. The investigation will be vigorously pushed and it is prob able that prosecution or some other otti- cial action will be taken.

The widow and beneficiary, Mrs. Mary Beach, through Sterling lodge received the sum of $2,0O0 within eight days from the day her husband died.

CONNECTICUT pATENTEES.
Contributions of tho State to the U.
 Patent Q flee.

Contributions of the State to the U. S. Patent office.
 The inventiveness of Connecticut Yan-
 kees is unparalleled. Every year they grow more inventive. A good propor- tion of the population of the state are l inventors and patentees.
 Their business in life Is to invent things and take out patents for them. Lots of the women of the state are pat ent holders, and the patents are for ! their own inventions, too.
 In looking over last years report of the commissioner of patents 1t is notic- ed that Connecticut yet stands the first among the inventive states of the Un- ion. Why the patents taken out in that year by the inventors of the Nutmeg state numbered one for every 903 of the states inhabitants. This was for a sim gle year; and so, if is added to the pat entees of that year those of the previous
 twenty or thirty years one will be
 brought to the conclusion that most of
 the adult Yankees of Connecticut must
 be patentees.
 But the number of inventors is far greater than that of patentees, for many Connecticut inventor could not get 0 patent last year. The commissioner of patents at Washington ascertained by inspection of the inventions sent him from Connecticut that plenty of them were not, in his opinion, deserving of a patent.
 Some of them were worthless or un- important or not brand new, or infring- ed upon patent rights already in exist ence If, however, all these unsuccess- full applicants for patents are counted as actual inventors, or at least men and women of inventive mind, it will be seen that there cannot be room in the state for many inhabitants other than them and the patentees, There is no other state of which this can be said.
 It seems that there are cases in Con- necticut in which man patentee is
 married to woman patentee. There is also a. case in which not only the hus- band and the wife, but also two of their children were patentees. They are both aged and youthful patentees in the state. If an inventor be black his or her color is no bar to an American patent.
 It is a curious fact that the proportion of patentees in Connecticut is far great CT than that in either of the two popu- lous states by which it Is bounded.

 To-day the books of the Southern Canada railroad close for the annual meeting to be held on June 5. The transfer books will be open June I. The Erie Telephone company has declared a quarterly divided of i per cent, payable May 20.
 The Chicago and Alton railroad has declared the usual quarterly dividend to both the common and preferred stockholders, payable June 1, to hold CTS of record of next Friday. The Pennsylvania railroad has de- clared a seml-annual dividend of 21a per cent, payable the 3tst of this month. In accordance with the eus- tom of this company women stock holders can collect their dividends one day earlier than holders who happen to be men, corporations or charitable organizations.
 The Rome, Watertown and Ogden burg railroad has declared the usual quarterly dividend of 1M per cent. payable May IS. Dividend checks will be sent out from the Grand Central depot in New York city.
 Among the large losses which some Connecticut investors have made with in the last two years or since the panic of 1893 was the investment in the stock of the National Cordage company. Just two years ago the preferred stock was quoted from 101 to 110, quarterly divi- dends of per cent. were paid. The common stock was quoted 65 to 69 and quarterly dividends of 1h per cent, or 5 per cent. per annum were paid. Since May 1, 1893, the preferred stock holders have paid an assessment of s2O per share and the common stockholders $10 per share. On the first day of May this year, after paying these assess ments and after d fair improvement in the general business in the country the holders of the preferred stock could sell it at only $10 per share and the com mon stockholder could only get $7 per share. Certainly the words "business depression" have a dismal sound to the holders of this stock

 It is Claimed That They Are Lottery Con
 cerns.
 There Is a movement on foot in this city to prosecute the tailors who have been conducting suit clubs. Those who intend to prosecute have, it is said, already engaged counsel, and have put considerable money into it and will fight the matter to finish.
 It is alleged that the suit clubs are violations of the gambling law. This same allegation was brought against the watch clubs five years ago, and two cases were brought into court, one in and the other in Water bury. Disagreements were obtained in both cases, and there is no supreme court ruling in the matter so the local prosecutors will have to practically es- tablish a precedent.
 The suit club men claim in defense that they do not come under the lottery law, for their plan is not gambling scheme. Each subscriber knows what he is going to bet. He is sure of a prize for a price or less, but not greater than a fixed amount.

The Selection Will Probably be Made by the Board of Education This Week.
 The new superintendent of the New Haven public schools will probably be chosen at the meeting of the board of education next Friday evening.
 The matter of the selection of Su- perintendent Curtis successor las been in the hands of these two committees: Committee on schools, Harry w. Asher, James T. Moran and Thomas Hooker, committee on special instruction, Eli Whitney, jr., Samuel R. Avis and Will liam E. Morgan.
 There were about forty applications for the place, and five or six of these were chosen to come here and look the field dyer. The number of candidates has now been reduced to two, one A. w. Edson of Worcester, Mass, one of the state inspectors of public schools of Massachusetts, and the other, c. A. Kendall step-brother of N. W. Kendall of this city, who is a salesman for D. C.. Heath & Co.,, the text book publishers.
 Both candidates are not without ex- perience in the management of public schools, MT. Edson having been super intendent of the Jersey City schools. and Mr. Kendall having filled a similar position in Jacksonville, Mich.
 The committees have not yet met to pass a formal vote as to whom they will recommend to the board of educa- ton for appointment, but it is under stood that they will do so some time this week. When they do there is every indication that 1t will be almost an even thing between Mir, Edison and Mir. Kendall.

A South Nor walk carpenter has received the speci- fications and general plans sent over from Italy by the government which desires to have constructed from 800 to 1000 American wooden buildings. Earth qual1es shake down the stone structures now in use by that government, result ing in considerable expense and loss of life.

The action of the county commissions CTS and the citizens committee of Wa terbury in accepting the plans of Ar chitect William H. Allen of this city for the new court house ordered by the general assembly, is being severely criticised In that city. The main cause of complaint is that two Waterbury architects submitted plans and the citl- zens think one of these should have been given the award, particularly as New Haven~had opposed the scheme of a new court house In Waterbury.
