The prevalence OF yellow fever in the
Soldiers Home at Hampton, Va, is official.
~ announced in the report of Lieutenant.
Colonel DE Witt, army post surgeon at Fort
Monroe TO the Surgeon General of the army
at Washington. The Government authori-
ties are taking every precaution to stamp
out the disease, and the promptness with
which they have acted should be followed
by encouraging results. Baltimore, Phia.
delphia and New York are in constant com.
muncation with points near the infected
district, but there should be no occasion for
apprehension, as necessary steps have been
taken by the health authorities for the pro.
lection OF the cities. 1t is highly essential,
however, that sanitary regulations should
not be neglected by property owners and
tenants. Yellow fever is disease which
leeds on filth, and householders should have
this fact impressed upon them. Every per-
son should see that his premises are Clean
at every point and in every particular, and
disnfectants should be freely used. A city
in which modern sanitary regulations are
strictly enforced has little to fear from vel.
low fever.

Ora RF0RD system REsTORBD

After two trials Of the convention system
Of nominating candidates, the Democrats of
Hartford county, by vote cast at the pri.
mary meetings, last Saturday, determined
TO return to the old plan of selecting candi-
dates, which first went into operation in
1871 and continued without interruption
until 1897. The vote for the Crawford plan
was almost unanimous. Only 90 votes were
cast for the present system and 2206 for the
Crawford county system. At the next gen.
eral election, therefore, every voter will be
Tree to choose for himself the candidates he
would prefer TO have placed on the ticket
There are evils in both systems, but some OF
the worst features Of the system to which
the party has determined to return can be
lessened by legalizing the primaries There
fore when the Legislature meets next Janu.
AIRY we hope bill will be presented which
will throw around the primary election the
restraints of law, so that illegal voting may
be punished in the same manner as if com.

The new cars 'are almost an exact
counterpart Of the first-class sleepers.
one noticeable feature Of the new
tourist cars is tn absence Of a smoking
apartment. The new cars being built
by the Pullman Company are not pro-
vided with smoking apartments. This
rev departure has been taken because
OF the fact that most through trains
are provided with composite cars, which
provide a smoker for the sleeping-carI
passengers.

A SHORT SERMON.
Thoughts Suggested by the viii Of Cor
nelius Vanderbilt.

The attention Of the public has been
called TO the benevolent and educa-
tional bequests" in the will Of Cornelius
Vanderbilt. This distinction between
the terms benevolent and educational
4, usually made, although, in fact, there
can hardly be a higher expression of
b,nevolence than in encouraging true
education.
The thought often comes to nearly
every man. "T would like to be in such
circumstances financially that would en-
able me to do some practicable good
for Others" There is nothing so good
as good giving. The dissatisfaction
of the donor, the pleasurable glow Of
true charity that grows by exercise, is
worth far more to the donor than any
thing else his money could purchase.

opportunity to do any good in the di-
rectlon our inclination would suggest
