Lieutenant Governor Cooke presiding
Business from the house was trans
acted in concurrence.
The bill concerning life insurance ant
building and loan associations, provid'
ing for Offering any estimates of bust
ness not guaranteed, as an inducement
for new business, rejected in the house
was considered, and after explanation
by Senator Fuller was rejected.
The substitute bill Incorporating the
Westport and Southport Tramway Co
was passed after slight amendments.
The resolution making all highway
bridges state bridges, and appointing
commissioners therefore was consider
ed. 1t was unfavorably reported
Senator Johnson's amendment was to
the effect that no member Of the senate
should be on the commission. The
amendment was rejected.
Another of his amendments was to
the effect that all the bridges 150 feet
in length over navigable waters should
be included. He said that II the state
was out of the bridge business that set
tied the whole matter, but when the
amendment was first offered he was Of
opinion that If the Hartford bridge
was to be state bridge there were
other bridges in the state that should
be similarly treated.
Senator Gates said that Ill years ago,
when the bridge law was adopted,
cheaper bridges were built than at pres
ent. In the little town of Preston it
was necessary to raise a tax Of six mills
to pay interest on their bridge debt. He
thought 1t would be well to repeal the
law of 1884 and have towns build bridges
in proportion to their grand list. He
thought 1t would Ibe well to offer such
a substitute. With such law Hartford
and East Hartford would not be bur-
dened at all in the bridge matter.
The pending bill was then tabled.
The bill concerning advertising hand
bills was taken up. The house had
passed the bill leaving out amendment

MEMoRIAL DAY.

| This Republic Not Wholly UngratefuI.
To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER;
| Are republics ungrateful? Perhaps
they are, in the abstract. But this re-
public of ours, in at least one respect,
surely--in the treatment of it's warrior
dead-has not been and is not ungrate-
full Such memorial celebrations as will
be observed all over the land next
Thursday, when the patriot graves of
the nation are remembered and decor
ated with fragrant May blossoms by G.
A. r. posts and loving friends and kim
ded, are well calculated to excite holy
! thoughts and inspire love of country.
Thousands and thousands of the fallen
were sought and found and taken away
by friends, and on Thursday, as here
tofore, their green graves will be deck
ed with fresh flowers in private and mu-
nicipal cemeteries of the city and viii
lage and hamlet from ocean to ocean;
but thousands upon thousands of 9TH
ers, whether sought for or not, were not
found or taken away, and SO were left
to hallow their resting places. These
resting places are our national ceme-
teries, eighty-three in number contain
ing 330,700 honored dead Every grave
is marked by stone tablet of granite
or marble.
These cemeteries are in the hands of
a large force of superintendent over
seers and gardeners, whose operations
are in turn supervised by the quarter
master generals office of the war de-
partment, where 1T is made the function
of special division Of that office to
look after all matters pertaining to
their management, to interments, re-
movals, improvements, headstones, rec
ords and the like. Liberal appropria-
tions are supplied by congress every
year for their support, and probably
no other set of institutions under the
government is conducted with such mi
mute attention to detail or receives such
constant, watchful care.
In all this the American republic sets
an example altogether unapproached
by any other nation under the sun.
Great Britain, foremost among the pow
ers Of Europe in humanitarian instincts,
can lay no claim to such an achieve
ment in the interest of humanity
Not in quiet English meadows are her
fallen brave ones laid to rest, but wher-
ever over the wide world her standard
has been pushed in the greed of con-
quest, there the whitening bones of war
riors lie scattered and unheeded or
dumped in bulk in nameless graves

A SNOW HILL GHOST.

For sometime report has been
current that the Episcopal rectory was
haunted. Passers by, day or night,
have heard a humping noise apparent
~ coming from under the house. While
everybody agreed that they did not be-
lieve in ghosts, there was certainly
queer noises TO he heard at the rectory.
On Thursday evening about nine
o'clock eight brave and fearless men
determined to visit the scene and if
possible annihilate his ghostship. When
they arrived on the spot everything
was rs quiet rs Il churchyard, and the
crowd claimed they were victims of n
Joke. The conclusion had hardly been
reached before the mysterious noise
commenced, and everybody felt salts
fed that the public had not been exer-
cised without cause. Down on his
knees by the porch went one of the
party and struck match every body
peeped III Ter the porch, and then
everybody felt sure that the cellar win
dow and the wind had something to do
with making the noise. A lantern
was secured and eight brave men
marched down into the cellar.
Ghosts To the right Of them
Ghosts 10 the left of them
Down into the cellar
Marched the brave men.
II somebody had exploded torpedo
down that cellar as the solemn-visaged
army of eight marched into it. it is
hard to tell what would have happened,
hut the MESSENGER would probably
have been able to record the fastest
running race stepped off in Snow Hill
during the present century. But
nothing strange or unearthly happened.
1t was simply the shutter of the cellar
window, which being untastened was
made to swing back and forth by the
draught in the cellar and that is the
only ghost the rectory ever knew.
