LIEUTENANT PETRIKENs SWORD
 FOUND

The Pillsbury Dispatch says: Gov ernor Hastings of Pennsylvania" {" (who recently spoke in New Haven and has many friends here) lis in receipt of a letter from Major William M. Robbins, formerly of the Fourth Ala bama regiment, Confederate soldiers, informing him that he has after a search of years finally located the sword of Lieutenant Howard Petriken of Bellefonte, who as an officer of Company E, Fifth Pennsylvania re- serves, was killed on the night before the battle of Antietam and died in Robbins arms in the Confederate lines.
 Robbins restored the dead mans watch to his family, and for over thir- ty-five years has been hunting his sword, which he finally found in the possession of a comrade in Texas, who willingly sent it to him for Lieutenant Petriken's sister, who resides in Belle fonte.'

ORIENTAL SCHOLARS.
American Society to Meet in Hartford
 Next Month.


 Next Month.
 The annual meeting of the American Oriental society is to be held in this city on April IA, 15 and 16; the prelimi- nary meeting of the board of directors being called for Hosmer hall, Hartford, at o'clock on Thursday, the 14th. In the preliminary circular, attention is called to the fact that the chief motive in substituting a single longer annual meeting in place of two short and hur- ried ones was that there might be an opportunity for friendly personal ac- quaintance and social intercourse among the members, and time for the informal discussion of scientific ques- tions, for the planning of new under takings, and for the maturing of plans already made. It is proposed to hold informal meetings on Thursday and Friday evenings, at which the members of the society may have opportunity for quiet, leisurely talk among them selves; and it is therefore hoped that they will make no conflicting engag- ments for those evenings.
 The president of the society is Pres ident D. c. Gilman of John Hopkins university. The members living in Hartford are Professors Macdonald, Mead and Patton of the Theological seminary, and Professors Ferguson, Hart and Martin of Trinity college.

THE PEACH CROP

Hon. A. c. Sternberg of West Hart ford, one of the successful raisers of peaches in this state, reports that up to the present time his orchards are all right. The prospect is good for a large crop. The soft weather has not yet so swelled the buds as to make them un- duly susceptible to frost, and the eX- perience of last year in that respect is encouraging. Then there was so se- were a freeze late in April that there were icicles on the bursting buds, and yet enough of them survived to bring a large yield.

 or twenty dollars plate. "Oh, no,'' shouted Albert M. Todd, of Kalama- zoo. "A thousand plates were spread there at one hundred dollars each"
 My gracious" exclaimed MT. Clay ton, fifteen or twenty dollars ought to have been enough! A man who eats that much at a meal eats a bale of cotton in Alabama"
 Yes" interjected Jerry ci----,eon. fifteen or twenty dollars would hara,,, pay for the toothpicks at such a meal"
 Well" said Long Jim Richardson, of Tennessee, "a man who would eat a hundred dollars worth at meal would eat up two mules in Tennessee So much for amenities in the house. And the senate is not behindhand. The other day Senator Allen, of Ne braska, was talking. Senator Spooner of Wisconsin, said that if the senator would read the rule carefully he must admit that he was mistaken. MT AL len replied that he was not a skilled parliamentarian, like his friend from Wisconsin. MT. Spooner said that the senator from Nebraska very greatly exceeded him in that respect. ''Or like my friend from Maine (Mr Frye)," continued MT. Allen. "who shakes his head at my proposition. l wish he would nod it occasionally; it would be gratifying"
 T wish I could,'' responded Senator Frye, and preserve my conscience"
 "oh, don't think that would trouble you great deal.' Senator Allen non- | chalantly responded, and even Senator Hoar Uttered

NEW BRITAIN's NORMAL SCHOOL.

NEW BRlTAIN'S $ NORMAL SCI1OOlI. The annual catalogue of the State Normal Training school of New Brit ain has just been issued by the state board of education. The catalogue IS embelished by handsome cuts Of the school and the annex, and the matter of interest that it contains is not on fined to prospective students. This statement is made:
 "The normal training schools cannot supply the demand for trained teach CTS. Many towns and districts in the state employ only trained teachers, so far as this is possible. "There is ample encouragemel for | college graduates and others of libe- ral education to prepare themselves Tor | teaching by course in the framing l school
 | This survey shows that the school, with it's experienced instructors, its 1 collection of books and apparatus, it's activity in progressive teaching, US gratuitous instruction, is able to afford | decided advantages to al lwho intend 1 to be teachers.7
 l The calendar for the remainder ot | the year is as follows: l June "A, Friday noon year closes. | September 5, Monday, entrance ex- aminations.
 l September G. Tuesday morning, year i begins.
 November 23, Wednesday noon l Thanksgiving recess ends.
 November 2S, Monday noon. Thanks giving recess ends.
 December 23, Friday night, Christ mas recess begins.
 January B. 1899, Tuesday morning | Christmas recess ends. In reference to the advisability ot
 students acquiring as much education
 as possible before entering this schoo
 the following recommendation is made
 Ut is decidedly recommended that al l who intend to be teachers procure fol 1 themselves, if possible, at least a Higf 1 school education before entering this
 school. Those who have a broad edu 1 cation particularly in literature, histo
 ry and physical science will find that i it enables them to avail themselves | much more fully of the professiona training which this school affordr" In the summary of the attendance ] forty-nine towns are represented a! follows:

SAYS HE STRUCK HIM.
Joseph Bumper Mokes Serious Charges Against PoIicenoD
 Hutchins.

Joseph Bumper. janitor. visited police headquarters last night and made a com plaint against Officer Hutchins, whom he accused of assaulting him without provo cation. According to Bumpers story he was standing in a grocery store at Val lejo and Kearny streets, last night, when young woman who had made some slanderous remarks about him entered.
 He proceeded to "call her down." as he expressed 1t. and finally threatened to slap her face" if she continued to slan- der him.
 She at once left the place. and notified Hutchins. A few minutes later he en- tered the store, and walking up to Gum per, struck him in the face with his open hand.
 Fearing further violence at his hands. Bumper left the store and subsequently, went to ~olice headquarters. where he gave his version of the assault. He claims that the police officer is prejudiced against him and that he never misses an opportunity to annoy him.
 Last Friday night, he claims. Hutchins stood him up on Kearny street and searched him for a revolver. He intends to file written charges against the officer at the next meeting of the Police Com missioners.

IN RICHMOND DISTRICT.
The Improvement Club Elects Officers and Passes Reso-
 lutiOnS

The Richmond District Improvement Association elected the following officers at its meeting Wednesday evening, Jan uary 12: President, Charles II. Hubbs (re- elected), for one year; vice presidents s. U. Darbee. E. P. E. Troy. Charles Su- tro; secretary, J. G. Maloney re-electeo eighth consecutive term): treasurer, E. M Van Frank; sergeant at arms, H. V. Case; executive committee. c. H. Hubbs, George Semken, E. P. E. Troy, pr. F. 5. Petrie, s. U. Darbee, Charles F. Mueller. James Fitzgerald, w. Somers, J. T. Mel nert and J. G. Maloney; delegates to As sociated Improvement Clubs, Charles H. Hubbs, E. P. E. Troy. J. T. Meinert. James Fitzgerald, J. c. Maloney; com mittee on charter, etc, J. G. Maloney, E. P. F. Troy, James Fitzgerald.
 The executive committee reported that the district west of Central avenue and Laurel Hill Cemetery and north Of Point Lobos avenue has started the year with splendid promise, and among the actual improvements now going on are the fol- lowing: California street, from Central avenue to First, will soon be completed, paved etc. and will certainly be the main artery to Richmond, and will soon have an electric railroad. The property be- tween Lake street and the Presidio on the heights lately occupied as a vegeta- bIe garden is being graded. streets laid out, maCadamiZed etc. This is one of the most beautiful building sites in the district. Preparations TOT building a block of residences on Sixth avenue, be- tween California and Lake streets, are completed and work begun. On Second, Third and all avenues parallel new houses are to be built immediately as the contracts have been let. As the dis trict is well lighted good fire and police protection has been furnished. Its fu- ture is assured, and the coming boom Tn property is already being felt. The open ing up of California street and its fine grade and location will make it the great business street of Richmond.
 The following resolutions were passed:
 Whereas. The Board of Supervisors of this city and county did, June S. 1897, by reso- lution declare that as the City Cemetery burals were dangerous to life and detrimental to the public health, that the same be pro hibfted. and notice was given through the pub lie press, and that from and after Jan l, 1898. all burials in that cemetery should cease; and.
 Whereas. Ample time for procuring new sites has been given to the Chinese and others. who now ask for a continuance Tn the matter of closing the same that they may still longer public property continue their bone-scra ping and disease-spreading rites to the detriment Of improvements and imperiling the health of citizens; be it
 Resolved That we petition the Honorable the Board of Supervisors to refuse any con tinuance. as under the law they have the power. and ask them to assist us in this matter and discontinue the burying in said cemetery and abate this nuisance. That the pretense of the Chinese and others are frivolous" and done merely to further this city property for gain, and to the menace of our citizens.

Harry Baldwin, who made murderous assault upon Nat M. Wall, a barkeeper in William Abbott's Grant-avenue saloon, short time ago, was sentenced to two years Imprisonment in Folsom by Judge Cook yesterday morning.

THE MOON DOES IT.
The Cbinese New Year Day Fixed by an UDerrinq
 Timekeeper.

According to the Chinese calendar, which Is regulated by the moon, there IS no such thing as a difference of opin- ion by the Mongolians regarding the date of the first of the year, save and except what is now thrown in by the newly appointed Consul who has taken it upon himself to change the date. At this interference with time and tide the wise ones in Chinatown simply laugh.
 They point to the fact that the new moon, which governs their months, comes on the Fist of this month, and nothing that the Consul or any other man may say or do can change that event. Consequently the New Year will be celebrated on that day. By the Chinese way of computing time they have, as we have, sixty-two moons every five years. This gives them an extra month every three years and a little over which they divide to suit their new years, always making 1t a point to have the year commence on the birth of the moon. This year the birth of the twelfth moon is down on the calendar for the Fist, and that set ties it. Next year, however. will be long one with them and their new year will run Into the middle of Feb ruary.
 The Chinese months vary from twenty-nine to thirty days, but never more or less.
 They laugh at the ConsuTs way of reckoning dates, and simply say that if he be correct the Chinese New Year in China commences by right on the 2Oth, inasmuch as the Eastern time is ahead of the San Francisco time by at least one day. Consequently Friday. the Fist. will see Chinatown painted red, unless the Chief of Police wills it 1 Ot heryz-iSp
