ARBOR DAY.

On Wednesday of last week Cover nor O. v. Coffin appointed Friday, May s, as Arbor Day by proclamation in which he said: ''In accordance with section 1.756 of the general statutes I hereby designate Friday, the third day of May, as Arbor Day and recommend that the same be observed by appro- priate ceremonies and exercises in our public schools and among our people generally for the promotion of the i'm portant interests which the observance of the day is designated to foster"
 Governor Coffin neglected to recom- mend the planting of fruit and shade trees, shrubbery, etc. That was un- doubtedly an oversight, or else he took it for granted that the people know that is . necessary or implied feature or duty of the day. Trimming trees plant cd years ago is often more desirable than to plant additional trees. Arbor Day ceremonies and exercises in the public schools are beautiful theory, but . ton of such theory iss worth less than an ounce of practice. In other words, cleaning the rubbish out of the streets, rakinR leaves off the Town Hall lawn, repairing sidewalks, or doing the least thing to tidy up or beautify village. is infinitely better than ceremonies. In hriaf wo,k inataad of words is what counts and shows results.

Too Much House For One Family.

A benevolent woman living at Glen dale, N. J., devotes much of her time to entertaining children who live in the low CT wards of New York and who of course have crude ideas of country life. During Christmas week this woman invited dozen of the little urchins to her house and was rewarded for her trouble by the thorough way in which the children en- joyed themselves. In the party was one little girl scarcely 5 years old. She came from a crowded tenement house on the east side and took the most intense inter est in everything she saw. After a oare- ful inspection of everything on the parlor floor of her hostess house she asked in curious tone, "Who lives down stairsf''

The Hartford Bridge.

Last Thursday the majority report of the judiciary committee OR the Hart ford bridge matter was presented in tue Senate by Senator Warner. It is signed by Ave members, who are Sena- tor Warner and Representatives Cowell of Waterbury, Roraback of North Ca naan, Greene of Norwich and Bowen of Windham. Two minority reports, one by Representatives Gum of Milford and Goodrich of Wethersfeld and the other by Representatives Hicks of Holland and Judson ofStrstford were presented in the Senate on Tuesday. The majority report is lengthy document of three quarters of column of fine print, being an exhaustive discussion of the whole sub ject. Annexed to it is proposed bill. The first section of the proposed bill re- peals the law of 1893. by which the ex- psnse of building and maintaining the bridge was thrown on the state. Sec tion imposes on the towns of Hart 
 expense of building and maintaining all necessary bridges between the two towns. It also provides that 30 per cent of the taxes paid to the state by the street railroad companies using the briige or bridges for the next five years and thereafter ten per cent shall be paid to the said towns in proportion to the amounts of their grand lists. Sec tion 3 authorizes the Comptroller to settle any claim, within six months after passage of the act, which the Berlin Iron Bridge Co.,, or other party. may have against the state arising from any contract made by the bridge commis- sioners under the law of 1893, to an amount not to exceed $2O,0O0. By sec- tions 4. 5, 6 and ' the Berlin Iron Bridge Company is permitted to sue the state. in the superior court in case no settlement can be made with the comptroller, on the contract made with the commissioners under the law of 1893, and provision is made for the pay ment of the amount of any judgment it may recover. Section authorizes the Comptroller to build the bridge at the expense of the state in case the courts should hold that the state is bound to do SO under the contract in question, but provides that the towns of Hart ford and East Hartford shall in future maintain the bridge and build and maintain all other bridges between the two towns.
 The report also states that it does not appear that any corrupt means were resorted to to secure the passage of the act of 1893.
 The Hicks-Judson report favors re- peal of the law 1893, that the bridge be thrown on Hartford county and that the state pay $10O. 900 of the expense.
 On Tuesday on motion of Senator Warner the majority report on the Hartford bridge matter was ordered printed in pamphlet form and the bills were male the special order of the day for Tuesday, April 30, at 1 p. m.
