THE NEWS, PROVIDENCE. r. T..

for speech making did much to make
them known and popular before they
sought the executive office. And 1t Is
fact that most Of our Governors have
icquired proficiency in speech-making
through the severe experience OF guber-
material demands and have retired from
Office with regulations that have made
them in demand as ex-Governors to de-
liver addresses on important topics at
public meetings. Governor BoURN,
Governor TAFT, Governor DAVIS, Gov
ernor LADD, anu Governor BROWN are all
regarded today as agreeable and M
structive speech makers, though their
private business life had afforded few
opportunities for indulging in the prac-
tice OF oratory prior to entering upon
their gubernatorial duties.
1t is the happy fortune of Governor
elect LIPPIrT that he is one OF the
readiest and most agreeable speakers
among our young business men.
He has an inherited talent for speech
making, and he has taken occasionto de-
velop it when opportunity has offered
during his business life. He is able at
the outset Of his public carer to face
an audience with composure and address
them huently and eloquently. He is to
be congratulated that this duty, not the
least taxing of the executive burdens, is
to be light for him. We have in mind
In particular two addresses of the Gov
ernor-elect on widely diverging topics
that indicate the scope of his ideas
and the case with which he
expresses them. One Of these was an
address on business, a study OF the pres
ent and future of the commerce at
Providence" by President LIPPITT Of
the Board of Trade, in which the story
of the dissipating of the foreign COM
merce of Providence was graphically
told, and methods and measures for its
recovery, that have since received alb un-
dant endorsement, were pointed out in
telligently and eloquently. We may
reasonably expect to hear further
from Colonel LIPPITT on this sub
ject when he comes TO the
gubernatorial Office, carrying out his
views presented in this address, which
received the unqualified approval Of
business men and the press at the time
Of its delivery, and continuing the Off
cial effort in this direction that will be
heritage from the administration Of
Governor BROWN
The other address which we have in
mind was delivered recently at a meet
Ing of Rodman Post, q. A. r., on the
occasion of the presentation Of a me-
mortal volume to the post. 1t is
essentially patriotic address, rs
full of the sentiment of loyalty and de-
votion to country as the other was of
business acumen. IL presented the
citizen who has now been honored with
so large share of the confidence of his
fellow citizens in the clear light of "a
Rhode Islander, true American, who
finds in the flag of his country an in-
spiration to faithful adherence to and
support of his country's institutions, a
zeal for his country's interests and an
impetus to effort for their furtherance.
The citizens of Rhode Island have
again elected to be their Governor a
broad minded business man, a patriot,
and an eloquent speaker.

OFFICER CURTIS HAS A PARTY.

Officer Joseph b. Curtis OF the Central
Police Station was given birthday party
at his home, II Narragansett avenue,
Tuesday evening. He was the recipient
OF a number of tokens of esteem and re-

years old, but the old family bible dis
closed the fact that Joe" was born in
1899, so the subject was not referred to
again during the evening: Officer Col

attack was delayed beyond the appoint

division, and, lighted carcass having
been thrown from the walls OF Castle
San Rogue by the French garrison, the
English saw that their lines would be
discovered. Instantly Wellington y third
division crossed the Gaudiana over
narrow bridge, deployed and ran up the
hill to the castle Their leader, General
Kempt, was killed, but the men reared
heavy ladders against the walls and
mounted in the face OF showers Of
stones, logs and lighted shells rolled
down from the parapet. At the top the
French stabbed the assailants with pixies
and bayonets and pushed their ladders
over Baffled, yet unsubdued, the British
retired and reformed ranks, CALLED by
the wild shouts of victory from the
French. The heroic Colonel Ridge call
ed for a ladder and placed 1t against
the wall as a sign that the end was not
yet. Another and another was reared
alongside by gallant emulators. Ridge
mounted first and stood alone on the
rampant. Tho soldiers followed with
wild shouts, though the French cut
down the first corners to a man. Victory
crowned this effort, but every general
