A Massach usetts clergyman, 1t mat ters not what h Is name, struck respon- slve chord in recent sermon, when he discussed an altogether too prevalent evil, the use of foul language on the streets. His remarks, while intended for Massachusetts audience, are appli- cable to Connecticut cities and towns, and the crusade against objectionable posters and approximation on sidewalks may we'll include the suppression of the free use of vile and profane language where people are obliged to listen to 1t. Women and children on the public streets are often compelled to hear vulgar language which common decency should keep man from uttering when alone, to say nothing of polluting public places with such blasphemy.

The contrast in the condition of the country between the time of Lincoln's first inauguration and that of President elect Mckinley Is said to be vividly portrayed in an article by Stephen Fiske for the March Ladies Home Journal. In telling of "When Lincoln was First h. augurated' MT Flske graphically de scribes. Mir Lincoln's journey from Spring field, Illinois, to Washington, and the incidents of the inauguration and the at tendant festivities. There were grave fears that Lincoln would be assassinated as he rode in the inaugural procession to the Capitol and every possible precaution was taken for his safety. Mir Fiske will recall the safeguards placed around the President. Special officers and de- LeCLlVeS III ClLlSens ClOGnCS were staLlOn- cd In numbers among the crowds that lined the sidewalks, and sharpshooters occupied positions of vantage on house tops, etc., along the route of parade. The military escort of the President-elect was heavily armed, ready to promptly meet any hostile demonstration, and the crowds were kept a distance from the Presidents carriage-so far that they could not distinguish Mr Lincoln from Buchanan, who rode beside him. The police were instructed to arrest all per sons making opprobrious threats against Mir Lincoln, or utter!ng disloyal senti- ments. The tension was great and the whole country was in state of suppress ed excitement.
