 You will find in Indianapolis beautl- i ful cominging of the intellect of New i England and of the grace and beauty Of the south and I congratulate you that that is to be your home.
 The next one called on by Toastmas- Ter Martin was Professor Phillips of Yale university Professor Phillips said that there was only one thing that he wished to present to those present in regard to MT Kendall. He knows, Professor Phillips said, that a good teacher is one whose brains are alive; that the essentials in a teacher are to partake in scholarship and drink at the fount of learning. In every case where MT Kendall was able to find an oppor- tunity for the teachers to improve their minds he conscientiously urged them to do so. He has tried to get all he could out of the university, and the unlVersl- ty is delighted to have a man make drafts like this on it. I believe that when the teachers take advantage of the opportunities it offers them they will make better and more efficient teachers And when a superintendent urges teachers to accept these opportu- mites he is preparing them in the best way to meet the problems of the school room.'
 President Eli Whitney of the board of education was the next speaker He said that MT. Kendall had had a ditfi- cult time here, but that criticism was the portion of every superintendent or schools. q am sure" he said that his five years with the schools of New Ha- ven have been of immense good to the city. We had hoped that he would be with us for years, but our best wishes go with him in his new field of labor"
 Principal Morrill, who followed MT Whitney, complimented MT. Kendall for his selection of teachers from the nor mal school He was very earnest in his remarks and said that there had never been room for the slightest criticism. An occasion like the present one, he said, ''is especially gratifying to us all He congratulated the board and MT Beede upon his appointment as princi- pal.
 Other speakers were Prentice w. Chase, Colonel c. w. Pickett, Principal Beede Principal Mirick and Congress- man N. D. Sperry. The latter was the last speaker. His remarks were in line with the preceding speakers and highly commendabe of Mir Kendall. His story of the days when he himself taught school was greeted with much laugh ter

Concerning the Spanish Cannon Sent
 Here-It May be Loaded.
 Brigadier General A. R. Burlington, ordnance chief of the United States army, has just sent to Mayor Driscoll a letter in which 1t is stated that it had been reported to the general that one of the Spanish cannon distributed to cities about the country at the close of the Spanish war was loaded when ship ped. The ordnance bureau did not know to what part of the country the loaded gun was sent, and these notices have been sent cut to the various cities which received the guns in order that they may be examined and the charge extracted wherever it is found before an explo- sion occurs and possible injury is caus- ed to some one.
 The gun sent here is now on top of East Rock and it will probably be ex- amined to-day to ascertain whether it is loaded.

THE MEN WITH THE HOE.

Does the poet fairly represent
the American farmer, after a
thorough investigation of this
question, there seems to be a pref
ty general consensus Of opinion
that be does not. While many Of
the verses may describe the tiller
of the soil in the old world, but
not the American farmer Of today,
and while many verses have as
their basis the old time tiler Of the
soil, but they are intended to ap-
ply, in a greater sense to all who
are forced to excessive physical la.
Dor to supply their wants or to
quench the ambition OF the mind,
there are many thousand Of such
workers in this country, and in the
broad sense we conceive them to
be the men with the hoe. O.
There are thousands Of this
class, they can be found in the
workshops, the factories as well as
on the farms, but much less do we
see it on the farms than in the
cities and towns. The rich man
whom the world calls the success
full man is the man with the hoe,
he has as a rule been SO wrapped
up in his money getting, that he
has never looked beyond his own
narrow horison. he seldom ever
appears on the broad highway Of
thought, Of art, or.of sympathy for
his fellow man,
In the great struggle for the
mighty dollar, or a great name,
does the merchant, the mechanic,
the professional man, the politi-
clan, differ from the rich man, and
IS We see it they are the men with
the hoe.
We know by experience that
farming is at times hard, but the
training and experience Of those
years have been valuable to us.
The boy on the farm cannot help
absorbing the honest qualities,

at Indian Head we fired a projecti1e at the armor plate at an angle of 21 degrees. No sooner had the soft nose touched the plate than the projectile turned at a right angle to the plate and penetrated it."
 No matter what the tariff-ruled, pluto cratic senate may say, the country will not rest content under the payment of mill lions to the Carnegie combine for armor that will not resist shells Especially will the country object to the payment of an extortionate monopolstic price per ton. The combine demands $545 ton for armor that the best obtainable evidence shows can be made at sl6O ton.
 The power of the combine over the gov ernment is verging upon q national scan- dal, aud this scandal is directly connected beyond reasonable doubt with Mark Han- mas campaign fund. An attempt by the republican managers in the face of recent revelations, to hand over additional mill lions on the divide plan to the Carnegie combine, will give/the democrats an issue only second to the attempt to plant a colony in Porto Rico and to establish im periasm at home. The chief work of con gress seems to consist in formulating dem- ocratic issues. and the democrats stand ready to accept every one that comes along.

Soft-Nosed Pr0iectiIes.

At this writing the senate is about to vote upon the armor plate question; but it's vote will not be conclusive. If the facts are as they are stated the artillerists hold the field, and all armor-plate makers are vanquished. A plate made by the Carnegie company and intended for the Variag, a Russian cruiser, was pierced by the new projeetile at the Indian Head proving ground, as readily as if it had been made of green wood. The inventor of the new shell is James w. Johnson, a member of the firm of Isaac G. Johnson & Co.,, of Spuytenduyvil, which is on Harlem river, in New York City.
 q think" said Mir. Johnson recently, sfhat the action of the soft steel cap may be illustrated by 0 simple experiment. If you would try to drive a single nail through a piece of sheet iron, the nail would bend. But if you first drive nail through piece of hard wood, you will penetrate the sheet iron.
