MRS. ANDREW RoYDEN.

Mrs. Andrew Royden, who died in
the New Haven hospital on Sunday
morning, was born on Chebeaugue Is
land, Maine, on November 80, 1S47
Nearly twenty-five years ago she mar
ried Andrew Royden. For three years
they lived in Maine, then came to Mil
ford, where they have lived ever since.
Mr.. and Mrs. Royden had two children,
Edgar, who is living, and a little daugh-
ter who died in 1889 Mrs. Royden had
been i'll for some time. Five weeks ago
she was taken to the New Haven hos
pital, where she submitted to a serious
operation. She got along nicely, when
suddenly there was change. Her
husband and son visited her very fire.
quently the last week of her life About
Thursday Mrs Royden became worse.
Sunday morning, very early, her lus-
band was telephoned for, but Mrs Roy
den died before it was possible for Mr..
Royden to reach New Haven. Mrs
Royden was member of the Mary
Taylor Memorial Methodist Episcopal
church, having joined it during the pas
tcrate of the Rev. J. M. Carroll, her
husband becoming a member at the
same time. She was of very amiable
disposition, always kind and pleasant
to every one. She was very fond of
flowers and always had a great many
that she delighted to give to her friends
Almost the last thing she did, before
being i'll, was to gather flowers and
prepare a large number of little bou-
quets for the Flower guild. She was al
ways interested in the work of the
church and ready to give and to help,
for it's interests. During her severe ill
ness her sufferings were intense yet she
was patient and did not complain. A
letter received by Mr.. Royden from the
nurse who attended her, tells Of her last
hours, how she said she was ready to
go, and sent comforting messages to
her husband and son, that she would
wait for them, and meet them in
heaven The funeral services were held
yesterday afternoon. The interment
brother and sister from Maine could not
arrive before last evening. Dr.. Pit
blade conducted the services. A quar-
tette sang several hymns that We're spe-
cially liked by the deceased. The pail
beares were George Robert, Amos

daughter, Miss Clara Brown, to Nor

THE UNSAFE RURAL DISTRICTS

THE UNSAFE RURAL DISTRICTS.
A good deal used to be written about
the peacefulness and safety OF life IN
the country and the dangers of being
murdered and robbed in the large cities.
But nowadays the city, with its efficient
police force offers more protection than
the unguarded country. In Connecticut
of late the rural districts have been the
scene of startling murders. Boinay is
to be hung for the murder of Marcus
Nichols, the latter and his sister having
been the victims Of a robbery in their
farm house at Daniels Farms. Bertram
l.. Hotchkiss, farmer, was killed by a
gun shot fired through window Of his
home, and Herman Sachse, Hotchkiss'
hired man, who was tried for the muir
der, has been acquitted. David r.
Lambert, a well-to-do resident Of the
hamlet Of Wilton, was fatally wounded
by four bullets that were sent into his
body by robbers, just after he had I'M
suspectingly entered his house at 5
o'clock in the afternoon. His wife had
been previously gagged and bound. We
believe it is in the country, at their
own firesides, not in city, that respecta-
Bile people run the most risk of being
murdered or robbed. So much crime
also adds to the already too great pub
lie expenses. Indeed, it may finally be
necessary to bond the state to raise
the money to pay for murder trials in
stead Of to build good roads.-Bristol

Der of eonvicts. Upon the subject of
prison mortality the report says:
During the year only five deaths oc-
CURED from natural causes, and tho
mortality rate was materially below
that which obtained in the state at
large. Although the rate was abnor-
1nally small, and although it would be
hazardous to predict the permanent
continuance of the record, the directors
are confident that the sanitary meas
s1res which have been applied during the
past few years, and which have been
accompanied by a gradually decreasing
mortality, have elevated the standard
of health in the institution. Last winter
ward in which convicts suffering from
an aggravated attack of pulmonary
consumption might be isolated and in
which an abundance of light and air
is supplied was established A row of
contiguous cells has been set apart

system of heating and ventilation has

Miss Katie Jones knelt down by the bed
and put her arms round him and said, "Oh,
Harold dear, you are better, aren't you?
he Looked up at the admiral with a QdZeu
expression in his eyes, which was silent
appeal for an explanation.
And the admiral, not wishing to keep an
invalid in suspense, told him how he had
discovered his secret and congratulated him
on having had the good sense to fall in love
with the daughter of an old friend and dis
tant relative of the Hennikers. At which
Harold marveed much and was glad; and
when his mother bent over him and said,
1T was very wrong of you, Harold, to get

a great success in the provinces.
She is quite "a professional now, and she
is likely before long to come to London

of her, and she has several offers of pam

the admiral mistook a maid of all work for

peculiar thing about the manner in
show its completeness, is the fact that the
directors last winter placed the price for
Rocky Ford cantaloupes at 971a cents per
crate of forty-five melons. All through the
season they can be purchased for nothing
more or less, and their ability to secure
what they ask has never met with disaster.
The melons are packed carefully and are
placed in refrigerator cars A good lot OF
Rock Ford cantaloupes are kept sometimes
Tor i've or six weeks. Such is the sound
ness of the melon and the judgment of the
grower as to when it should be picked.
Melon growing in the Rock Ford district is
a science as well as profession.
An idea Of the immensely of the business
is gathered when it is figured that 0000
crates are necessary. This means to the
growers, at 97R cents per crate, $685. 400. In
number the melons will amount to 100000.
and as retailed by the dealer involves a
sum equal to $27O 900 at cents apiece, as
they are sold in Kansas City. At 800 crates
car, 1t is equal to about thirty trainloads
OF melons, counting twelve cars to a train.
Such is the wonderful record made by a
very small territory of this progressive
West. What one community does for the
business of the world there are possibilities
for other sections, and in time the law OF
natural selection will get in its work.

has been generally confined to the fam
lilies of such Americans as have been best
able to pay for it. 1t is gratifying. at least
to the Foulkes, to fine one which is now
placed within the reach of modest purses.
The man who will not give 50 for such pro-
genitors must be insensible to the calls of
fame and to all noble aspirations.
1T is to be hoped that the step thus taken
toward the characterization of royal and
noble blood will be generally followed, and,
although few families can hope TO vie in an
cestry with the variegated luxuriance Of
that of the family of Foulke, yet that all
may in time find some sort Of nobility, and
even royalty, within easy reach, thanks to
the diligence and ingenuity of the members
of the Genealogical Society of Pennsylva-
MA
In view Of this delightful bit of irony we
can forgive Hon. William Dudley Foulke for
all the mugwump Affections he has visited
upon us in the past. He has not only cele-
brated the royalty of his own family's de-
scent but he has shown us how much better
and cheaper it is than that CT certain New
York genealogies which, not SO long ago,
were offered to us accompanied by loud
smell of soap and cOOnskinS. We blot out
our once resentful account with Mr. Foulke
and offer him a hand of sympathy.
