MARD ToRK TO SIZE.

The committee on receipts and expen-
dtures in Connecticut did its work
well, and some of the bills introduced
to carry out the ideas Of the committee
were good bills. But SO far they have
MT found much acceptance in the leg
islature and they probably will not,
There are too many and too much
against them. Economy is all right SO
long as it doesn't hurt anybody who is
holding Office When it does there is
a great question about it's value. The
Interests of the State" become promi-
nent then and they are kept prominent
until all danger that the salaries will
be reduced is over. Public business
can't be done on wind, You know, the
laborer is worthy of his hire, etc, ETC.,
etc. SO it is hard work for the legisla-
ture to be economical with so many
good and needy fellows pressing it to
be just, if not generous. And then it
is SO plain, you know, that any little
saving in one way will cause an equal
If not greater expense in another way.
SO on the whole, it is better to let
things continue as they are, isn't it?

That is interesting news which comes
from Kansas to the effect that if Con-
necticut makes law prohibiting the
savings banks of this State from in
vestng in the bonds of Kansas and
other western States Kansas will adopt
retaliatory measures and prohibit Con-
necticut insurance companies from do
ing business In that State.
Of course Kansas would hurt herself
If she should prohibit the sound and
well managed insurance companies of
Connecticut from doing business there
but as Kansas has already hurt herself
much there is no reason to assume that
she wouldn't hurt herself more by do
ing what is now threatened. She prob
ably would. So it may not be wise to
pass the proposed law that is so obnox-
ious to her. The savings banks can, we
think, be trusted to invest their funds
safely, and until they show tendency
to invest In such securities as the pro-
posed law would keep them from it
might be well enough not to harrow up
the feelings of Kansas by passing the
bill. Kansas is so "touchy" Just now
that there is no telling what she will do
if she takes a notion.

They Are Dead.

There was man who never told lie
But he's dead;
Never said 1t was wet when the weather
was dry
Never said
He'd caught fish when he hadn't caught
one,
Never said he'd done something that he
hadn't done.
Never scoided his wife. and never got
And wouldn't believe that the world was
SO bad.
A respecter of men, defender Of woman,
Who believed the divine, and in that when
was human.
Meek as Moses-be never was understood
And the poor man died of being too good.
There was a woman who never had Cos
slped a bit
She's dead too;
Who hated all scandal, nor listened to 1t;
She believed in mankind, took care of her
cat,
Always turned deaf ear to this story or
that;
Never scolded her husband-she never had
one;
No sluggard was she. but rose with the
sun;
Never whispered in meeting, didn't care for
a bonnet
Or all Of the feathers that one could put
on it;
Never sat with the choir. nor sang the
wrong note;
Expressed no desire to lecture or vote;
For the poor soul was deaf as n post-aiSo
dumb
You might have called forever and she
wouldn't have come.
And she's dead.

THE SAMOAN SITUATION.

Those who have been fearing serious
trouble between this country and Ger
many on account of the Samoan episode
will feel somewhat relieved by the news
| that matters have been arranged so that
the Samoan commission will sail for
Apia from San Francisco on the 25th
of this month. 1t is probable that by
| the time the commission reaches Apia
the headcutters will be ''pacified' and
the commission can go to work without
| having to wait for the war to cease.
and the Cologne Gazette remarks: 1--WE
need not say that if the guilt of the
manager Of the German plantation is
proved Germany will approve of his
arrest and demand his punishment We
will not defend the behavior of Ger
man abroad merely because he Is a
German" The paper admits that DR..
Raffel (the German president of the
municipal council of Apia) acted lille
gally IN closing the chlef Justices Office,
and says: THE other two Powers, we
hope, will also admit the illegal acts Of
their representatives" Probably they
will If their representatives have been
guilty of such acts 1t is plain, how

must have bsen obliged to Swap many
times, for no one horse of any color

two years. If he did make a bad trade

Mr.. Mansfield was one of the most
finished scholars of his tine, much
sought and consulted by men Of learn
ing. but equally friendly and familiar
with the unlettered and lowly. He also
had q goodly fund of humor, and told
many amusing anecdotes OF his exper-
fence, one of the shortest Of which L
will trespass on your space to relate.
Being called to a distance of several
miles to marry couple of colored per-
sons, he on reaching his destination
was warmly greeted by the sable as
sembly, and was facetiously told by
the bridegroom that he shouldn't pay
any fee unless he married them just
like he did white folks, which the good
minister promised 10 az, Dul dllcI tHS
ceremony and while "Delmonlco' re-
freshments We're being served, he was
told by the colored gentleman that he
didn't cove him muffin cause he hadn't
filled de contract to marry him just as
he did white folks" Asking wherein
he had been remiss, the answer was:
"Oh, la! la. Oh Yah! Yah! Massa
parson. yo didn't kiss de bride"
In his later years Mr.. Mansfield wore
a full white wig, which on one occa-
sion was blown from his head In the
street. causing an old lady to remark
that them wicked boys" were laugh

Mr. Mansfield declined the honor of

votion to his Derby flock, whom he had

Return to Nature.

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
With your permission I will reply to
Mr. Davies letter in your issue of April
H. Allow me to state that I am ignor-
ant Of the inside working of any church
organization and my facts have been
drawn, not from a Pigment of my mag
nation, but from Mr.. Davies previous
letters, as will be seen by reference to
his letter of March 81, where he says,
1T is therefore a serious calamity in
church as in government for few to
grow unduly rich while the many are
growing distressingly poor" In Mr..
Davies last letter he adds the state
ment that these same many or
masses have left the church, and re-
fuse to return. This change in Mr.. Da-
ves' position, !. e., that the uncomfort-
ably poor are now outside, whereas they
were formerly inside the organization,
accounts for his misunderstanding Of
my letter
Searching for the cause of this dis
tressing fact, that the churches have
lost their hold upon the masses, I have
come, with Carlyle, to the conclusion
that many OF them have become mere
hollow shapes or masks, under which
no living figure or spirit any longer
dwels; but only spiders and unclean
beetles in horrid accumulation drive
their trade; and the mask still glares
on you, with its glass-eyes, in CHASTITY
affectation of life-some generation
and-half after religion has quite with
drawn from it, and in unnoticed hooks
is weaving for herself new vestures
wherewith to reappear ard bless us, or
our sons, or our grandsons."

Still, / must insist that our teachers,

lent advice for so many years, have sig

plica ton of it, in showing how this may

FASHION NOTES.
New TriclSery With YOkes

Summer dresses for girls not yet in
their teens reflect very prettily some
of the fashions that are characteristic
of their elders attire. They have, be-
sides, dainty characteristics of their
own, and owe much of their attractive
ness to the fact that they do not slav-
ishly follow the styles Of groWn-ups.
One pretty little summer dress is shown
herewith. 1t was in Nile green and
white batiste, trimmed in the skirt with
embroidered insertion and ruffle of the
goods. On the bodice were a yoke all

METAL TRADING CHECKS.

An interesting question has been
raised in Minnesota by the use Of metal
trading checks, which has become so
general in some of the country districts
as to almost supplant the use of gov
eminent coin, and a suit has been in
stituted against the stamping concern
the production of them is in violation
Of the federal coinage laws. These
checks are about the size of silver
quarters. They are stamped with the
name of the firm for whom they are
made, and bear a statement that they
will be received for certain amount
in trade, the amounts ranging from five
cents to one dollar. Country merchants
use them in exchange for produce. They
are good for trade only at the store is
suing them. But from the fact that the
stores refuse to pay for produce in any
other currency, they soon come to be
accepted by all other stores, as the
farmers selling produce have no other
coin to spend. In this way their circu-
lation becomes general in certain locali-
ties. The storekeepers maintain that as
they have an unquestionable right to
give receipts good in trade, it is imma-
terial whether they are written on
paper or stamped on metal. The prac-
tice is a profitable one for the mer-
chants, and it enables them to do bust
ness on borrowed capital on which they
do not pay interest.

An old case was recently tried at Lille.
"a chemist named Paynelle, who weighs
$40 pounds bought third-class railroad
ticket for journey. After that all he
had to do was to get into the train and
start, and here it was that difficulty
arose. Third-class passengers evidently
ought to have third-class figures, and
M. Paynelle's figure was neither third
nor even second-class, Into both third
and second-ciass carriages NJ. PayHelle
attempted to squeeze himself; but the
doorways of both, if narrow, were firm,
and the worthy chemist found himself
compelled either to stay where he was
or to enter a first-class compartment.
He chose the latter alternative, and re-
fused to pay the difference of fare de-
manded by the railroad company. The
result was lawsuit, when the company
commended that, as only first-class
compartment could receive people OF M.
Paynelles fiIst-class dimensions, he
ought to pay first-class fare. The court
supported the company, and judgment
was given against the chemist.
