 Concerning the late George H. But ricks the Howard Avenue Church News in very appreciative article concern ing this excellent deceased citizen says: He had most genial and sympathetic and even affectionate temperament, which made him beloved by all who knew him. He manifested an integrity of character that was above reproach. As we took occasion to note when he re- tired from business in 1895, he left a business record without blemish. He served the public for three years in his drug store, and modest living for himself and family was all he ask ed in return.
 He loved his church and supported it faithfully and lberally and conscien- tiously For many years he was its clerk and of late he had been an audit O office. His voice was but rarely heard in public, but he was not slow of thought and he could write with clear- ness and precision. He was a wide reader, and one of the most apprecia- tive members of the Young Mems Insti- tute. He was member of the old Quinnipiac Debating society, and was well known to everybody who lived about here in the old days before the civil war as well as ever since. He was a member of the City lodge, l. O.. o. F., whose Aual was read over his dust.
 He had enjoyed life greatly for the last few years, since the burdens of business were laid aside His church fellowship, his social companionships, his reading, his recreation on the wheel,
 in the garden or on the excursion and other diversions have made the latter part of his three-score years and ten a great satisfaction to himself and his friends.
 He leaves a wife, Sophia B.; broth CT, Minot A.; two daughters, Ella, wife of Rev. F. Countryman, and Hattie, wife of Frank B. Gilbert, and one son, Wallace, who was with him in the drug store for several years and is now in the Philippines as a member of the Cal- ifornia Heavy artillery.
 "The funeral was held on Wednesday afternoon at the house, and there were more present than could be accommo- dated"
 The family of the late MT Butricks publish a letter in the Howard Avenue Church News expressive of their deep appreciation of the kindness of many friends which has been shown in their hour of sorrow; also expressing the family's thanks to the press of the city for the obituary notices concerning the deceased and to City lodge for brother 1,, interest shown

INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE.

With our obligations toward those who have come or

diction.
The conditions attending labor In the Hawaiian
islands have at last attracted the general attention
which was sooner or later certain to be bestowed On
them There they have the contract labor system in
vogue IN form and to extent of which We the
mass of the American people, have not the remoest

territory in which such primitive ideas of personal
rights have prevailed since their discovery and settle

American press is directing popular attention at this
tlme Is that contracts shown to have been made
since the acquisition by us Of the Philippines which
recognize the penal compulsory labor system and flat
those contracts are being enforced under orr
sanction.
