rev can paint the sea ana none can
paint a song, but Robinson has tried to
paint "The Song of the Sea-" and if he has
not succeeded in doing all he aimed at,
he has at least struck the keynote of his
desire, and sent it vibrating into the minds
of all who look upon his work in moods at
all sensitive and susceptible to the inHu-
ences of the sea. Of all pictures that men
paint those that represent water are the
most popular. Perhaps this is because
water is more beautiful than anything
else, or perhaps it is because it is always
associated in the minds of landsmen with
sumptuous ideas of pride, adventure or
pleasure. Few of us seek the sea except to
travel, to fish or to make love. Robinson,
however, has not painted the sea under
that aspect. His is the mysterious sea
with sunlit surfaces and infinite depths,
whence come the voices of sirens enticing
to pleasure and leading, perhaps to the
Golden Isles, perhaps to Hades.
1t is not always the brightest things
that most attract us nor the strongest
that make the most lasting impressions.
Amid the glory of a thousand roses we
are conscious of the charm of hidden
violet, and with a sweet insistence the
loveliness of it fingers in the memory
when we go away. Out OF the fine ar
ray of larger and brighter pictures in the
exhibit there remains with me the recol-
lection of one of the smallest. It is little
picture that hangs in the conservatory at
the landing of the grand staircase. 1t is
called "Mignon," and was painted by Miss
Newman. Whether it is the portrait of a
real child or new ideal of the wirsome
creature of Goethe's romance l know not,

 Windsor Avenue Congregational church, Hartford, and whose resignation from that pastorate and dismissal by council have been recently chronicled, has re-
 ceived and accepted call to the Congre- gational church in Plymouth. The church is a. prosperous one and he will have, in addition.to his salary, hand

NEW YEARS AND THE TROLLEY.

New Year'fday, l995i .yfll lgta ba re-
 membefed by many Of our citizens, as
 the opening day for the long g-looked-for and Danbury. About 1.30 o'clock an
 electric car was in waiting near the rail- road crossing ready to'conyey the invit-: ed town and borough officials of.this
 place over that part of the trolley road
 that is now finished. The car quickly and smoothly passed over the road to Danbury. in less than 20 minutes with stops at the City hall where they met an-
 other electric car with the town and city
 officials, together with Ex.Gov Wall CT
 and s. H. Wagner of New Haven, who
 are interested in the road. Both cars
 passed up Main and North streets to the
 end of the. line and from thence back to City. hall and up West and Division,
 streets to the west terminus of the line. apd from thence back to Main street line ahd there the carswere headed for Bethel.
 The trip down and return was made in
 about 40-minutes. The cars were halted at the Turner house and the guests were invited in and cordial greeting. given. lunch was served and appreciated. A few -toasts anu speeches were the order of the hour. Ex-Gov- Waller in his re- marks claimed that when the road was fully equipped and. finished it would be seeond to none in the. United States :. The road bed is smooth and firm, the. eafs run steady and still and it was re- markable fact that the horses met along the route took but little notice of the passing cars. The people. along the line na anifested great deal of interest. The ladies left their indoor duties for ma oment's view of passing car. The lit1le children were seen to peep with one eye from behind some tree or fence with great suspicion al the passing mon. /. ster that appeared to run without any apparent cause. The officials of this. plae were returned to the starting place greatly pleased with the formal opening of the electric car system and feeling that the old horse car conveyance is.of the past. The electric cars will now. make their regular trips. The large roomy cars, comfortably warmed and well lighted, will probably draw great nciease of patronage. - '-r e Mrs Eugene Flatt, who resides on Hickok avenue, was overcome with escaping gas from an old furnace, Sun. day week. Dr Hart was called and had .. Mrs Platt removed. to Andrew. Fry's hous se, where she recovered from the dangerous effects of the gas.
