The Ubiquitous Mfcrobe.

Ruthless bacteriologists destroy, one by one, our fondest illusions. Now faith in the purity of glaciers must go the way of other popular fallacies. Hitherto the manain the street had imagined that were all the waters of every city and plain polluted he would still find immaculate springs in the Alps. But NJ. Binst, who presides over a chemical laboratory at the Pasteur institute. having no such faith, ob- tained some ice from the glaciers of Mont Blanc itself and placed it under his pitiless microscope. His verdict shatters the dreams of mountaineers. It appears that even the summit, which So long remained untrodden by human feet, has lost it's purity, if it ever had any. The ice in question, and water melted therefrom, were found, on bac- astrological analysis, to be "peopled with colonies of microbes" The state ment which follows is particularly ter rifying. It appears that '.the germs in question were found to belong to the most varied families of bacteria" NJ. Binst accounts for the pollution of the Mont Blanc glaciers by surmising that the microbes have been conveyed to the mountain peaks by the winds sweeping the cities in the valleys.-London Te1e- graph.

 Him in Contest He Withdraws from. To the Editor of the Democrat:
 Will you kindly give me space in your paper to correct wrong impres sion which your morning contemporary has seen fit to allow to prevail. The real reason for my withdrawal from the scholarship contest running in that paper is not for want of funds, as the paper desires it's readers to believe, but because of the inability of those in charge of it's circulation to meet the requirements An instance:
 On June I handed in q subscribers name. The paper should have started June g. The subscriber got his paper June 28 the day after I withdrew from the contest.
 Friends who have intentions of "chip. ping in'' are respectfully requested to note my reason for withdrawing. shall request that my name be with drawn from the columns of the paper. and ask that henceforth it's owners de- sist from any attempts to use my name as a medium to make the contest sue cess. c.

The Cigar of Peace.

ssEvery attention is being paid to the Boer leaders, whose comfort. in the matter of lodging has been we'll looked after.'' Thus the report from Pretoria, and in the interests of peace it is to be hoped that the comforts in clude some reasonably choice cigars, the reduction of which to ashes forms the best basis for an agreement be- tween men who differ and smoke. By much tobacco Bismarck reduced Thiers to acceptance of the German terms, and the Spanish-American peace com mission after the war of 1898 proceed ed but lamely until the delegates kindled the pipe of peace. At the fifth meeting, little progress having been made, Senor Rios, on behalf of his colleagues, proposed an escape from the formal atmosphere. "I have ob- served" he said, ''that the American commissioners are accustomed to smoking. May suggest that we join together in our one bond of sympathy and light our cigars and cigarettes ?'' This being done, the negotiations speeded happily, thereby proving that a smoke in time saves much firing London Chronicle.

Location of Taste.

It is a generally accepted belief that the sense of taste lies in the tongue and the palate. People speak of fine palate, and many persons express ass tonishment that they can enjoy a delicacy as we'll after having had a plate fitted to their mouths by den- tist as they could before they paid a visit to that clever gentleman. But it appears from observations made by an Italian doctor that the sense of taste is not confined to the tongue and palate, but extends down the throat. You taste also with the epiglottis, that little valve at the base of the tongue, and the larynx, to which the epiglottis acts as an assistant, also takes part in the process. Concerning the palate, it is noteworthy that we taste with the soft part, which is at the back of the mouth, but not with the hard Cor front) palate that explains the mystery of the dental plate.- Chi cago American.

THE FLAG COMES HERE.
concordias Captured the First Prize

Concordias Captured the First Prize
 at Seymour.
 There was something doing in Wa terbury last night. The band was out and so were all the people in Wa terbury. The cause of the excitement was due to the fact that the Concordia singing society of this city captured irst honors in the singing contest at the annual meeting of the Connecticut Saengfest at Seymour yesterday, making a score of 711a points out of a follows: In the first class there were three competitors. the Concord ias of this city, the Arions of Bridge port and the Hartford Saengerbund. A strange thing about this class was that Professor Hans Saro was the teacher of Waterbury and Hartford. The local singers would not have been chagrined if Hartford had won out, but they did fight hard to keep the prize from going to Bridgeport. Hart ford stood a good chance to win up to almose the last part of the prize song when the first tenors went wrong and then the decision rested between Waterbury and Bridgeport. Water bury won and the scores were as fol lows: Concordia 711s, Arion of Bridgeport 6S, and Hartford Saenger- bund 671s.
 The second class had five competi- tors and the prizes went as follows: First prize, New Haven Sons of Her. man, with score of 661a; second, New Britain Quartette club, 62h; third, Bridgeport Germania, 62; fourth, Springfield Maennerchor, 621a; fifth, Taftville Maennerchor. 19
 In the third class there were three competitors and they won as follows: First prize, Thomaston Leiderkranz, 641s; Lyra of Meriden, 62, and Derby Maennerchor. 61K.
 The fourth class had three con- testants and prizes were awarded as follows: Stamford Liedertafel, 6O1b; Iorrington Germania, 55, and South Norwalk Arions, 51
 The Judges were Heinrich Bauer and Gustav Hinrichs of New York and Mir Kapp of Jersey City. Professor Saro of this city received the most honors as he had three winners, the Concordias for first place in the first class, the New Britain Quartette clul for second prize in the second class and Thomaston Leiderkranz for first prize in the third class He had nc competitor in the fourth class and his Hartford singers did excellently in the first class
 The result was announced on tho picnic grounds at Seymour yesterday and a few minutes later people il Waterbury were throwing their hats in the air and making ready to give the boys reception on their return il the evening. The Concordias reached here on the 9 o'clock train and were met at the station by large numbel of friends, headed by the Waterbur, Military band. This was followed b, parade through some of the princi pal streets of the city, followed by { social session at Concordia hall. Dur Ing the parade red fire blazed alons the line and much jubilation was man Hest all over town There was : magnificent display of fireworks a, the United States hotel on Grane street The Concordias is a yerry popular organization and their sigma victory was source of much pleasur, to the public.
