and Aegrian nymphs of the mythical past
 may mourn and weep afresh since our new world poets have rivalled in sweetest
 song their native orphens.
 John Trotwood Moore seems to be the first to apply a highly cultivated mind to the task of infusing into Southern min strelsy the charm of grace and beauty which he has wrought Into his Songs and Stories and a Summer Hymnal." MT. Moore imbues his work with the deep sense of the charm of natural simpliei- tv and his withdrawal, as some of his writings show, no mean appreciation of the glorious epic hence, we are not con- tent for a moment to believe that he can ever be satisfied with a transient glimpse of an intellectual panorama of such in-
 finite eraces, grandeur, simplicity, nat ural coloring and noble imagery as this little prelude under the modest title of "A Summer Hymnal' forecasts. No, like others that have climbed Parnassus, he will dip deeper and often In this well of wisdom, albeit he knows not the spell which renders 1t sweeter to the taste than all other waters. Towering around those sacred groves and those hallowed wales depicted in his past work he will inhale deeper and profounder tke odor of the flowers of poesy which -,, has
 transfused into his books. Our taste and perception must be wilfully and ob- stinately dull If they acknowledge not an extreme qualification that in diving Tor pearls of poesy MT. Moore has brought forth hitherto buried treasures of phlos- ophy in it's richest and sweetest garb.
 In his truly glorious picturess of the tranquility of country life and pastoral scenery he nowhere falls Into poverty of language or mediocrity of conception, and 1t Is on simple rural life accurately and tastefully depicted and thorough appreciation of nature that he relies for the staple of his song. And, he stands alone for between him and the author of "A Kentucky Cardinal and others there is wide and bridgeless interval of merit He is ever the passionate lover of the country deriving his materials from the real landscapes on which he is actually looking, and his song, In very gratitude holds up to imitation a life which Is so sngularly blessed.
 Ut is difficult to fix upon one beauty beyond another in these matchless pas- torals. A thousand charms of poesy press forward, each claiming special fa- vor and commendation. In one we finger long and lovingly over the patient. si- lent sorrows of sweet Thesis, and we view with repelling disapproval the fierce ness of disappointed self1shness in the raging passion of Joe Ford, but if path etic tabeaux or lovely scenes are more the object of our search, then, here and there we chance upon passages of emil nent loveliness In "A Summer Hymnal'' and "Ole Mistis," unsurpassed by any poet of whatever age or cline.
 May our Southern minstrels long con tinue to sing and ''soothe a toiIing world" but when life's strenuous life has been run, and we all know that Tt Is the hot 1lc x.rt,ox, the spirits of Keats and Lanier, having won the last hard, gruelling heat by an eyelash finish at the wire, may our poet fall asleep far from the din of cities, be- wept, like brave little Dick, by universal nature.

Another prominent congresslnan to

Another prominent congressman to visit the president last week was Senator Lodge, who went to Washing ton directly from New York, as he found in that city an invitation from MT Roosevelt. He had long consul tation with the president. When seen by correspondent, he stated that his visit with the president had been of a personal and private nature and that he had nothing to say for publication. It has since developed, however, that the senator will make no effort to se- cure the chairmanship of the commit tee on foreign relations and it is be- lieyed that, at the first opportunity, the president will offer him place in the cabinet, if possible, the portfolio of state The chairmanship of the com mittee on foreign relations will, it is believed, go to Senator Cullom of Illi- nois, and for the present Senator Lodge will retain the chairmanship of the Philippines committee.

The death of Admiral Bunce in Hartford last week has opened up a subject that has been buried for few years. The people that are now try ing to blacken the record of Admral Schley were also instrumental i'll side tracking Admiral Bunce just at a time when he had reached the zenith of his glory. It hardly seems possible in this country where fair play is talked and preached so much that men of un- blemished. character can be held up, or rather put down, before their lei Iowmen, as towards or unfit men to be put in positions of trust, and yet We are told that is just what has happen ed. It is not too late yet to do justice to some of them and if these old in- fluences are strong enough to dominate the naval board of inquiry it remains for President Roosevelt to inject into the case some of those strenuous ideas which he is said to possess. Justice should be done, even though some oi the men it should reach are dead.

Notwithstanding Senator Frye's as surances that the new ship subsidy hill would be amended and presented in n form that would insure it's almost immediate passage, there still seems to be some friction in the republican camp on the subject. Representative Minor of Wisconsin recently called on the president to protest against exec utiye support being given to the bill, even in it's amended form. MT Minor pointed out to the president that the bill was so drawn as to convert most of the subsidy into the treasury of the International Navigation company. and simply for making fast runs which they are now making, whether they receive any subsidy or not. MT Mi nor is in favor of a bill which will give encouragement to the slower class of freight carrying vessels and states that if the Frye bill is not so amended as to provide for a far wider distri- button of the subsidies, he will pre- pare and submit a measure which will do so. It is said by people who have the presidents confidence that he was a good deal annoyed at what he con- sidered lack of faith on the part of Senator Frye, in asking his support for the bill and leaving him so much in the dark as to the manner in which it's provisions would work.

tion honors. From the first the Demo- crat has claimed that democrat should be named. One in whom the voters have implicit confidence. The party has plenty of them too, it can be said, men who are competent 1n every particular, to represent fhis city at the convention to be opened in Hart ford on New Years day. We see no reason why man not in full accord with the party should be chosen by the democratic delegates. There is no reason why the party should select a man who is a democrat for revenue only, or in other words, deliaocrat when it suits him to be one. Tn speak ing of Editor Chapin, some democrats point to the fact that he was a demo- crat at the last election. True, as editor of the American, he supported Mayor B. G. Kilduff. He didn't say much, anything, about the rest of the ticket. What was the result :? Mayor Kilduff received the smallest majority of any candidate on the ticket. All the others beat him by from one hundred votes to more than one thousand. Some people are just uncharitable enough to say that if the campaign had continued for another week, and the American had continued to give it's support to Kilduff that his majority of 442 would have been wiped out altogether. Long before any candidate was mentioned for the con- stitutional convention the Democrat urged the necessity of electing a man in full sympathy with democratic principles and doctrines. 1t surely. cannot be said that Editor Chapin, with all his good qualities is such q one Judging from his utterances as editor he would be controlled by cor porate influences, and he would be op- posed in many things to the ideas aud rights of the large majority of the democratic party of Waterbury. We have seen no reason why we should change our opinion on the selection of a delegate to the constitutional con- vention, and our advice to the demo- crats who will meet next Friday eve ming is to put no one but good dem- ocrat on guard.

American inde- pendence is close at hand,'' was the great patriots conclusion after ponder ing over tavern discourses.
 In old tavern days rum or "kill- devil, as it is known at the time. was the almost universal New England drink. One old New Englander, how ever, wrote from Philadelphia: "Whis- key is used here instead of rum. but l can't see but it is just as good. An ancient Massachusetts statute forbade the selling of rum to drunkards. and an official was i'll attendance at the tavern to determine when man had drunk enough. As early as 1922 two gallons were coniscated from q Boston tavern keeper for violation of this law, and sold by the deacons for the benefit of the poor In the early Colonial days the sale of strong water was forbidden to the Indians, but la ter generation decided "that it was not fitting to deprive the Indians of any lawful comfort,' and repealed the statute-Boston Transcript.

A WESTERN sTRATAGEAf.

Several years ago, before newspaper advertising agencies were as numerous
 as they are now, travelling contrac-
 tor representing Browns Hirsute
 Propagation, struck the. city of Lafay-
 cite, Indiana, and called upon the pub fisher of the Courier. who informed the B. H. F. representative that he had I, GOO circulation and that it extended all over the United States. Naturally, this would have appeared "thin" to a wide awake contractor. but the visitor swallowed the story and then casually
 asked the publisher if he might be al- lowed to view the paper wet down" for the next days edition. In those
 days paper was made in sheets and fed to q press, and moistened to make the impression of the type clearer. The publisher was entirely willing that the caller should see the paper of course.
 Wait minute'' he said. Hastily | scrawling a few lines on a scrap of
 paper, he told an office boy to take it
 to the foreman of the pressroom. When the contractor and the pub 1 fisher. after a smoke and an interview | l they viewed through glasses, repaired l to the pressroom. there was dripping l pile of 25,000 or 30,O00 sheets of paper | which the bright contractor thought was about the number claimed by the publisher as his circulation, though it
 was at least six times more than even | the " expanded'' circulation.
 The publisher of the Journal q rival
 of the Courier, learning that the con- 1! tractor was in town. looked him LID at his hotel and informed him that the | hirsute preparation would never reach l the utmost height of publicity unless | it's virtues were heralded in the col | umns of the Journal. To this the con- tractor replied that the publisher of the Courier had assured him that his cir l clllation extended all over the United States. The Journal publisher was
 nonplusscd, but only for a moment. as he quickly responded: .'Well, that's so; the Courier does circulate all over
 the United States. but we beat him all to pieces in Kamschatka and New
 Zealand"

 The record of automobile accidents is lengthening out quite materially of late, but we presume this is to be eX- pected as the use of these machines grows more general. There is always sure to be more or less. accidents with these modern vehicles just as there is in the use of bicycles and horses. The element of danger always increases when we endeavor to increase our ve locity in travelling. and we do not know that the risk is any greater in an automobile than it is in other quick methods of transportation. Evident ly the automobile, when just the right kind of power is discovered, is the vehicle of the future.-New Britain Herald.
 The more testimony there is pre- sented in the Schley case, the more clearly it appears that Schley is en- titled to the credit for the victory, and that Sampson and his associates have been trying to blacken his reputation ill order to purloin his just credit. To read the yirulent assaults that have been made upon him for weeks past by various newspapers and naval au- thorities one might suppose that he had committed some awful blunder in his tactics as well as displaying cow ardice, but when the facts are known it is apparent that he handled his ves- sci and his fleet like a muster. The much-complained Of Hoop" of the Brooklyn brought her into action in the most advantageous manner and she evidently inflicted the greatest possible damage on the enemy while suffering the least possible damage herself, and that is the finest record that can be made by any naval commander.-New Haven Union.

As was to be expected a split ha

As was to be expected split has come between the president and Sen ator Hanna While those who had the best interest of the party at heart wished that these two gentlemen might be able to get along together they had little ground on which to base any such hopes. MT Hanna had so long exercised a dictatorship au- thority over the party and had so carefully laid his plans to secure the nomination for himself at the next na- tional convention that the succession of MT Roosevelt was a severe blow to his ambitions MT Roosevelt with his positive disposition. his iron convic- tions and his forceful method of put ting them into execution was almost bound to run counter to the feelings of the Ohio "boss," even if he had no ambition for second term, which he certainly has. During Mir McKinley's s administration MT Hanna had com plete control of all appointments in the south and had so used them as to cement together solid machine which would stand bound to do his bidding at the next convention. President Roose- welt has upset all this good work and proposes to make southern appoint ments to suit himself. The appoint ment of ex-Governor Jones was di- rect setback to the Hanna machine and more will follow, therefore Senator Hanna is sulking and talking of re- signing, threat which will not have the slightest effect upon the president.
