 The candidate retained entire compos- ure under the fire of questions emitted during part of the council deliberations. Intorrogations concerning child conver- vion, the historic Christ. the ordinances, the baptism of the Holy Ghost, etc, were satisfactorily answered, as were evidenced by the remarks later on-"He'll do,'' "He's sound," Hell get along"
 Everybody, visitors and all, expressed themselves as greatly pleased with the charming rendition of the solo by Miss Ida M. Hall, accompanied by Mrs. w. H. Hall. The duett by the little twin sis. ters, and the quartette, also accompanied 1 by Mrs. Hall, were pronounced features of the occasion.
 Well, well," said the delegates from | Hartford, Springfield, Putnam, Williman tic, as we'll as others, ''this collatior takes the cake. The boiled ham, pressed chicken, the variety of salads, baked beans, salmon, etc., could not be excelleG anywhere!"

Letter to G. c. Parkess,
Staford Springs, Conn.


 Dear Sir: You own several houses. Your reason for painting Devoe lead and zinc should be several times as strong as the man who owns but one.
 Lead and oil was good enough paint till the merits of zinc were found out. It was profitable to paint lead and oil-it was tben-but not now.
 The addition of zinc to lead makes Devoe lead and zinc last twice as. long and cost no more; costs less-a trifie less, not much. Lead and oil is mixed by hand Devoe lead and zinc by ma chinery. Might as well make one's shirts by hand as mix paints. Say 1t costs $1OC a house to paint lead and oil; and it lasts three years.
 Say it costs the same for Devoe; which lasts six years-it will last ten years, iI favorable conditions, unless you want tc repaint to change the color. The costs: lead and oil about $3O z year; Devoe $15-probably less. Yours truly, F. w. DEvoE < Go.

ence Chapman gave an accurate and in- teresting history of the class, reviewing its work, pleasures and sorrows. The class oration on '.This wonderful centu- ry," by James J. Donahue, was brlm-full of stirring thought and earnest appeal for the betterment of mankind. Miss Addie M. Whiton, with remarkable prophetic | insight, caused much merriment with many bright class hits. Miss Bertha E. Lyon gave with pleasing manner the class essay on ''The poor of our large cities" /" attributing much to the abomniable sweat shop system. Miss Mary E. Fitzpatrick gave the prophecy on the prophet, which proved an unusually well written and en- tertaining paper. The class will, duly signed and sealed, was drawn up and read by Miss Eugenia c. Lee, who, with extra traordinary capability, gave to those best fitted to receive treasures of untold value. The class song, with appropriate words by Miss Minnie J. O'Halloran and bright, catchy music by Miss Harriet G. Werner, was sung both nights by the class. An informal reception and dance followed the exercises Monday evening, Jordan's or. chestra furnishing music. On Tuesday evening the stage was backed with a hem. lock screen, while low hedge of laurel enclosed the front. making a fitting set. ting for happy, youthful faces and dainty white gowns. Rev. Julian s. Wadsworth invoked the Divine blessing, after which Miss Eva M. Sears, in modest, well chos en words, gave the salutatory. Prof Marshall Perrin of Boston university was the speaker of the evening, taking for his subject, Education with a pur pose" The central thoughts of growth and "self-control" were treated at lengtt and much emphasis was placed upon tht fact growth is eternal and stagnation i. death." MT. Perrin is pleasant, force full speaker, able to hold an audience witt deep, earnest truths and ready wit.

 An aggregation of so-called Gypsies, some of whom are no doubt genuine Gyp- sies, consisting of seven different families from Hartford, Boston, New Jersey, and the west, with forty eight horses, about twenty-five wagons, legion of children, both big and little, dogs, hens and chick ems, and also few coons have been en- camped on their old ground on the mac adam road, just below the Jacobsen place, this week and have changed that usually quiet locality into scene of hustling &C., | tivity. The feminine part of the contin- gent are all gifted with the power of second sight, at least it would appear so from the way they have swamed Into the village with the plea of ''please let me tell your fortune" No less than dozen different women, and 1t would have re- quiered long stretch of the imagination to call them all Gypsies, appeared in one place Tuesday, at different times. They were all the seventh daughter of the seventh daughter, and must certainly have told the truth, for by a remarkable coincidence each one, not knowing of pre- vious visits, told precisely the same story. | Staffordville.

Two Fads of Joseph Cham berlain.
Long before the Transvaal trouble
the Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain,
present Minister of State for the Brit
ish Colonies, was famous the word
over two things: his orchids and his
monocle. His costly collection Of or
chids is one of the finest in the world.
1t Is said that once in Paris he saw a
rare orchid, the duplicate Of one he had
recently added to his own collection.
He asked the price. Twenty thousand
francs" replied the dealer.
The Englishman paid the money, and
then, throwing his flower on the floor,
crushed 1t with his heel. However re-
liable this incident may be, the follow
ing is vouched for: Since boyhood Mr..
Chamberlain has worn monocle.
When the young man first entered Par
lament his fame as municipal re-
former had preceded him. Among the
visitors who were present on that oc-
casion were Lords Beaconsfield and
Carnarvon. The commoner had won
his election to the house by his vigor-
Gus opposition 10 The great Conserva-
tive's methods. AS he came into the
chamber Lord Carnarvon leaned for
ward and said:
"Here comes young Chamberlain"
"Ahv' replied Beaconstield. as he
took in the young man from tip to toe.

make his headquarters whenever the
fancy selxes him to dee from the glare

very little mention of the island. Yet
that It has had a romantic history is
pretty clear. Situated as it Is In the
Mediterranean, twenty-seven miles
south of Elba. 1t is manlfestly impossi-
bic that It was always as Isolated and
as desolate assH has been within the
last few centuries. i,iio
There are grottoes on the island, but
hardly sucn a one as Dumas describes,
the one In which the marvellous treasure
was found. ! At the same time there are
few places In the world where treas
ure Is more likely to be buried, and for
the very good reason that in bygone
ages this Island of Monte Cristo was
favorite resort Of smugglers and pirates.
Neither does 1t contain anything likely
to attract the ordinary tourist. The
ground Is mainly covered with bowl
ders, and there Is not an acre Of land
which can be cultivated. On the other
hand. the sportsman and the naturalist
will find many treasures amid this mass
