THE PROFESSOR
A Love Affair of October and
May.

There was a hint of autumn in the
woodland tints, where the col0rs shad-
ed from softest gray green through
russell tones to deepest red and brown,
and the breeze that swept over the up
lands was suggestive of chilly OctO-
Der, but the golden spell of Indian
summer lay on the valley, touching the
ripe peaches with an added bloom and
wooing the late roses to unfold their
fragrant hearts before it was too late
to give their sweetness to the dying
summer.
In the .ectory orchard, under the
shadows of the fruit laden trees, village
lads and lasses hid and sought, and
out in the meadow the children laugh
ed and played and danced to the music
of their own voices.
The professor stood at the outer
edge of a circle of infant jewellers, his
spectacles pushed up on his broad
forehead, his soft HOmburg hat tilted
forward to shield his eyes from the
sun.
Gray eyes they were, with a keen
ness in them that was reflective and
that lent them a clearer vision for
things that time had set at a distance
than for present realities.
The iron gray hair was brushed back
and outlined features that were not nm
handsome, though their sternness gave
him a semblance Of severity until he
smiled.
When the professor smiled children
understood that the tall figure with it's
inclination to stoop was not likely to
prove aggressive, and that the learning
contained in that massive frame could
be put aside with the spectacles; also
that the professor might have been
young once, before the weight of a
laurel wreath had puckered his brows
and powdered his hair with the frost
that comes before winter.
He was smiling now and looking
with appreciative interest at the game
in progress.
do you hear what they are sing
ing" he asked the rector's wife.
Mrs. Errington detached herself
from the tea urn to answer carelessly,
"'Nuts and May isn't it?'
'"The delightful irrelevance of child
hood" pursued the professor, "the
sublime faith in the Impossible. Here
we come gathering nuts and May-so
early in the morning. Not content
with demanding their autumn and
their spring at the same time, they
must have it early in the morning, too;
all the world at their feet, with youth
to make them enjoy it. They have faith
enough to remove mountains, but l am
afraid the days of miracles are past"
Mrs. Errington's glance fingered on
him for a moment, and then he travel
ed to where girl in white dress
stood under the trees that bordered
the rectory garden.

There are any number of stories to
be printed about Judge Caldwell, but
here is one that is said to be typical:
He was hearing an argument whereby
an attorney for an insurance company
was attempting to evade payment of
insurance on purely technical ground.
Judge Caldwell interrupted him. "Let

said to the attorney. '"rhe policy was

Edwin N. Washburn of this village has
bought the stage and trucking business Of
Oscar Marcy.
The soldiers meeting called last Sat
urday evening In Converse block, was
postponed until next Saturday evening,
when full attendance is requested.
There will probably be light hay crop
In this vicinity this year-too much cold
weather.
A box of delicious strawberries from
the garden of Robbins Patten has been
received. We do not know the variety,
they are enormouss in size and excellent
In flavor, one of them measuring 81 inches
around and all others of nearly the same
size.
The hail storm of last Monday after
noon was quite destructive to gardens and
fruit In this vicinity, though doing less
damage here than in adjoining towns
north of US. We hear of but few windows
being broken in this village but In Union
considerable damage was done. A Mr..
Morse of that town had seventeen lights
of glass broken, and hail stones were
picked up which after they had lain in the
grass some ten minutes, measured 81
inches In circumference. About ten in
the evening, Union was visited by another
hail storm, though less severe than the
former.
Two burglars were captured in this
village on Saturday last, who early Fri
day morning had operated on safe in a
Thompsonville grocery store, taking
about fifty dollars in money. They man
aged to conceal themselve in Springfield
until Friday night, when thay attempted
to journey east on stolen hand Car.
Near Palmer they we've nearly overtakf n
| by a freight train, and obliged to leave
their car, and run. The men upon the
train got good view Of them and their
description was furnished the station
agents along the New London Northern
railroad. Making their way to Monsoon
they took the freight train for Willimantic,
and being noticed by station agel Pack
ard word was sent down to this place.
On the arrival of the train the men were
met on the platform by Officer Squier who
grasped one securely while the 9TH r
broke away and ran. He was clio ely
pursued by Jacob Glover and being head
ed off, he jumped into the river, crossing
the Springs House grounds, but was
caught by Joe Parker before he had gone
far. On Monday they were arranged in
Thompsonville and were bound over 10
the July term OF superior court. Failing
to obtain bonds they were committed to
Hartford Jail. Their names are George
Warren and James Willis.

NIGHT BELLS.

Various Kinds of Help to BE Invoked
Through Their Aid.
OF night bells of one sort and another
there will be found in cities many.
There is, for instance, the drug store
night bell, which is old and familiar.
In large cities there are nowadays
more drug stores than formerly that
keep open all night, but the drug store
night bell is still an institution. Inside
the window there is light so placed
that its illumination serves at once to
give glow to some highly colored
jar of water-time honored emblem
of the apothecary-and make that
serve as a sign and to show to those
| who are seeking it, when they shall
have come near, the location of the
| bell
Likewise is the undertaker's night
bell old and familiar and to be found
in numbers, with a light so placed
| within as to reveal it plainly.
A peculiarly modern night bell is the
plumbers night bell, for whose coming
into existence there are two reasons
| one the multiplication in cities, for the
equipment of dwellings in accordance
| with modern ideas of comfort of pipes
and plumbing of all sorts. for steam
heat and water and gas, and so the
multiplication of emergencies arising
out of the use of them; the other be-
ing the modern way of not putting
things off till tomorrow, of following
always beaten track in doing things,
but of being ready if called upon for
work at any time. day or night.
The night bell that probably is to be
found in most limited number and
then only in great maritime cities is
the night bell of the wrecking COM
pany. Even in this big town there is
perhaps but one such night bell. but
there is at least one. which may be
found placed in the wall outside of a
wrecking company's office. in water

HE GOT THE INTERVIEW.

Story of Amos Cummings and Sec
rotary of State Seward.
1t was while Amos Cummings was
the Washington correspondent Of tile
New York Sun that he had memora-
BILE interview with Lincoln's secretary
Of state, Seward. Cummings received
orders one day to get certain informa-
ton from Secretary Seward without
fail, and accordingly he went to the
secretary's office to see him. Mr..
Seward did not receive the newspaper
man very cordially.
81 won't talk to q representative of
The Sun on that subject" said the Sec
rotary. 81 am very busy. You are
taking up my time, young man, and
can't be bothered with YOU"
In an instant Cummings was boiling
with anger and hurt pride. He drew
himself up, looked the secretary
straight in the eyes and said:
"You forget, sir, that there are three
parties to this interview"
"Three?" queried Seward in surprise.
How do you make that out?''
"First. sir. there is you, secretary of
state and one of the foremost figures
in the world of men of the day; second
there is the correspondent Of the New
York Sun, who has come to you on
perfectly proper GRAND in the service
of his newspaper, and. third, sir. there
is an American citizen who considers
himself the equal of any man on earth
and who will not be insulted by you or
any man alive!'
The great Seward looked at Cum
mings and smiled.
"Sit down." he said, land tell me
exactly what you want, young man."

wanted, but also one Of the best inter-
views with Seward ever published
