 The New Haven wheel is receiving a deal of praise this season, and the new '97 model is pronounced by experts one of the best of the new models on the market. It is perfect in every particu- lar and combines with lightness, dura- bility and exquisite finish, all the latest Improvements in cycle making Those who contemplate buying will do well to give this wheel good Inspection, and after doing so, few, who know a really good wheel, will be satisfied with any other The New Haven can be seen at the New Haven Rattan Co.,, 552 State street, and at Walter Leigh's on Church street.

chieftains. The jury were going to bring him in Not guilty but some body whispered them that the young laird had never seen an execution;' whereupon (out of compliment to that gentleman) the verdict was Death and the man hanged accordingly" Apropos of this story, Hone mentions the tale of the Highland dame, whose sense of submission to the chief of her clan Induced her to look upon her con demned husbands antipathy to be hanged as savoring of gross disrespect. Said she angrily, "Git up, Donald, git up to be hangit, and dinna anger the laird" The compliment ironical is ex- emplified In the following story: M. Bantru, distinguished seventeenth century French Academician, was asked by Philip III. Of Spain if he had seen the Escurial. The sardonic Ban tru answered In the affirmative. well" said Philip. mayhap fishing for compliment, "and what do you think of the library?" "I think, sir, that you should make your librarian
  tru; but on the King asking why the Iron entered into the compliment, for the reply was, Because he has never touched anything intrusted to his care"
 That compliment can be expressed in action as we'll as In words is illustra- ted by the diplomatic compliment paid by the Duke de Grammont when he en- tered unannounced the apartment of Cardinal Mazarln, and found his Eini- hence taking a little exercise by jump- ing against the wall. Realizing that it would never do to express the least surprise at finding a churchman of the Cardinaps years 50 employed, the Duke promptly cried, "I'll bet you a hun \ dred crowns that I can jump higher than your Eminence;;" the bet was ac- cepted, and they jumped for their lives -or rather for the dukes livelihood. for that worthy and diplomatic gentle man took very good care to spbtly compliment the cardinal by always Jumping a few Inches less than he had accomplished. and in six months after he was Marshal of France. The grace ful compliments of Louis XVI. have al- ready been noted, but 1t is doubtful If even these excel in grace the epigram- matic compliment paid to Dr. Balguy after he had preached a sermon at Winchester cathedral on the words All wisdom is sorrow" by Dr. Watson afterwards Bishop of Llandaff. He wrote:
 | "If what you advance, dear doctor, be true,
 That wisdom is sorrow, how wretched are you"

A gentleman stopped to listen to the tune, played on a and-organ, which happened to strike his fancy. When the air was finished, he approached the Italian, and asked the name of the mu- sic.
 "Soferteramonigo answered the Italian, showing all his teeth in smile of appreciation at the compliment to his melodies.
 The gentleman walked on, and en- deavored for many months to obtain the piece of music with the unpro- nounceable name. But he never could find it. At last one day he heard it played by an American, and again asked the name of the air he admired.

REV. DR. ADDISON P. FOSTER
ATCHURCH OFTHE REDEEMER AND
 HOWARD AYE. oON'GL CHURCH.


 Also Spoke at Welcome Hall-Dr. Foster Is Secretary for New England of the American Sunday School Union-A sun- day School Mission in yermont-1,so0 Sunday Schools Organized Yearly.
 Rev Addison P. Foster, D. D., of Bos- ton, secretary for New England of the American Sunday School union, occu- pied the pulpit of the Church of the Redeemer yesterday morning and of the Howard avenue Congregational church Sunday evening. He also spoke at the Sunday school of the Church of the Redeemer and at the Welcome Hall Sunday school
 At the Howard avenue church he gave an account of remarkable Work which has recently been carried on in northern Vermont by one of the mis- sionaries of this society. Ten miles from any railroad, under the shadow or Jay peak, in a little valley among the Green mountains, is community or some 200 people, all of French Canadian descent Forty or fifty years ago their fathers came into this valley from Can" ada to work in buttertub factories just started. In the valley they have lived shut off from the rest of the world, nI,,, I,n- ,.n1itriO1Js nriViIpGGS of any kind There were churches down the valley two miles away, but having no horses they did not care to walk the distance and climb the hills in returning. And they grew up with out the gospel, and in consequence came to have bad reputation. Liquor was common, and the sheriff had to make frequent visits to arrest people. A year or so ago Mrs. E. c. Kinney, missionary of the American Sunday School union, started a Sunday school there, fetching people from another vil- lage to take charge of it. Last January she came back and conducted meetings there. As a result about sixty of the 200 people in the place were convertd. The Sunday school was organized and one of the converts made superinten- dent A Christian Endeavor society was also organized. Bibles were given to ali who needed them. Steps have been taken to secure an organ for use in the Sunday school and evening meeting, and Sunday school library has been given them. It is hoped to secure a Christian worker to stay with them through the summer,and arrange ments have been made by which a Con- gregationai minister living ten miles away shall alternate in holding Sun day preaching service in the place. The work of the missionary has result ed in completely changing the condition of the place. Profanity has ceased; liquor drinking is given up; the sheriff says his occupation Is gone, while it is said that stranger passing through the place is likely to be stopped and talked with on the subject of reli- zion. Over thirty of the people have already signified their purpose to join the churches down the valley.
 This case in northern Vermont, the speaker said, was sample of the work done by the American Sunday School union all over the land in needy outly- ing rural districts. This society organ izes about 1900 Sunday schools year, and it's schools there are annually from 5000 to 10000 conversions, while churches follow to the number of from one to two hundred yearly.

Christmas exercises were held i'm
most of the public schools Of this city
yesterday afternoon. Among the most
interesting numbers of tho various
programmes was a debate at the High
school The subject was: Resolved

believe in Santa Claus"
Misses Edith Bailey and Mabel Ed
wards, with reCapitulations hy Miss
Brink, We're for the affirmative while
Miss Hattie WilcoE and Newell Van
Bergen argued, and Miss Bessie Teats
summed up the negative. The judges
were Professor HCCkcnberrN, Miss
Grace Mum and Miss Emma Rarrett.
Their decision was rendered in favor
of the affirmative, The Judges, how
ever, were not unanimous i'm their opin-
lens. Miss Mum stood alone for the
negative arguments, among which was
the strong one that many good, wise
and thoughtful mothers who have suf-
fered the deception continue to teach
their children to believe i'm the gray
bearded myth.
