A REMARKABLE ORCHID.
Specimen of "NeckIace" Variety
Won Medal in Boston.

A syndicate has been formed in Am
sterdam which will bear the great ex-
pense and risk attending cutting Of
what is the largest diamond known, the
Excelsior, says the New York CONNER
cial Advertiser. The Excelsior was
found at the Jagersfontein diamond
mines in 1893. 1t is the size of hens
egg and weighs in it's present raw state
go carats, which is nearly twice as
much as the Kohinoor weighed before
it was reduced to it's present size. Spe-
cially constructed machinery has to be
employed for cutting the Excelsior, and
great care is used in insuring its safety
from theft.

Now brother, you should not have
said so much for you have hurled to
the public the only reason why the
Democratic Legislature proposes to
pass an educational ballot law. at
would jar the Republicans of Ohio
county out of several hundred votes. y
Would it? A clear case of proposed
legislation Of the most excessive par
tisan nature. Democrats recognize
their inability to defeat the Repub-
lican party of Ohio county by just
and fair means, so they propose to
pass law that will disfranchise hun
dreds of Republican voters. 1t is be-
coming manifest in this county as il
has long been In most parts Of the
State, that Democrats propose to
win, even If they have to eak bitter
partisanship into our supposedly inn
partial Legislature, to help accom-
plish what Doodle and other corrupt
Bile means has failed to do.

The House Of Representatives, ten
days after assembling In extra ses-

vote of 33s to al. The dissenting
votes were about equally divided be-

but there was no record vote, the
minority having too few votes to or

The Democrats, under the leader

In accordance with the action of the
Democratic caucus, but were de-
feated steadily. Mr.. Williams made
the final effort when he tried to have
the bill recommitted to the Ways and
Means Committee with instructions
to amend, but point of order under
the special rule providing for a vote
on the bill without intervening mo.

OUR NEW GUISE.

We greet you to-day in our new
form, many of our readers and
patrons will there be, who can hardly
realize that it is really the "Old
HARTFORD REPUBLICAN," for in our
new form we present quite different
appearance.
Many of our readers have, at our
earnest solicitation, given us their
views as to the best way to make The
REPUBLICAN better and more ad-
mirable paper, and they, who have
expressed themselves in the matter,
have, with few exceptions, recon-
mended that we increase the volume
of our reading matter.
We recognized the fact, ere these
inquiries, that each week good and
valuable news items fell by the wayside
because of our insufficient space and
we have long been considering the
virtues, convenlences and beauties of
an eight-page paper as the means of
serving our readers and patrons in a
more agreeable and satisfactory
manner than we have been able to do
in our old style; and in distending our
pages from four to eight, we hope to
give to our readers such additional
reading matter as to more fully merit
their continued patronage and that
the general public will feel an in
creased interest in us to that extent
that we may CLEAN from it additional
patronage and support.
With best wishes for all we greet
you. Note our career, whether lowly
or exalted.

He filled the blanks and prepared his guess to mail, but never sent it, making his guess 103,30l, The lucky guess was 1O3,201 and the number of admissions was 103,337.
