 'But this does not seem to satisfy. We have been strenuous, not alone in all things which make for good, for safety and for permanenee, but we must be strenuous in adventure for personal glory and even in looking for fight. It is apparently not enough that We shall be active in every moral and religious movement, in everything that can promote education, the train ing and the discipline of our youths these apparently do not assure real progress. So we are invited to turn aside from these Into those lines of ae- ;1yity and adventure which smack Of the crusaders and of the time when the which human beings could be fairly said to have a right to live.
 Even the students in our colleges have been invited to become strenuous. A little investigation or knowledge serves to show that the college student has always been so. But in what di- reetion? He has been devoted to his studies as our scholarship and our uni yersal education amply attest. Nor has this activity been limited to the few; it has permeated the mass; it has been heritage of the country. But the student has not accounted it to himself as a virtue but as a duty, something he owed to the society in which he found himself: to his par ents. who, perhaps were making great sacrifices to enable him to be better fitted for the duties of life and to him. self.

 How much greater activity in this respect Is demanded by our times than we now show? But even If there were this greater demand there never was period when sports were more uni versally practiced or when they were more perfect Our successful rivalry in these has been shown in every quarter of the world. But this success has been purchased by the sacrifices of eff ciency in scholarship. It has not made our young men swashbucklers in school or after they have gone out into the world.
 No act that can think of is more important than the first vote. In a great majority of cases it attaches a man for ali time to one of the political parties. It is most important, there fore, that the first vote should be wise " cast. The responsibility of the act is too great for it to be lightly or care lessly done.
 Pardon me, therefore, for venturing the suggestion that if you have not al ready done so you give the subject very earnest consideration in the few days remaining before the election. Study the tendencies of the two lead- ing parties and see whether one more than the other aims to do the greatest good to the greatest number.
 You will find that neither party is free from fault; indeed, both of them have, from time to time done the things they ought not to have done, as we'll as omitted to do things they ought to have done. But many as these faults are, they will not prevent you from finding, if you look for it. which one of them possesses in the largest measure that spirit upon which republics can alone thrive"

DIED IN A CARRIAGE

 The late Charles H. Blakeslee, of 1916 State street whose death was announc- ed yesterday, died very suddenly in a carriage in West Hartland while out driving with his friend, Rev. G. S. Richards, Congregational pastor there. Death resulted from heart disease. Af- ter eating dinner at the home of E. A. Gaylord. where he was stopping for his health, MT. Blakeslee accepted an in .vitation from Rev. MT. Richards to go driving. The gentlemen had gone but "a few rods, when MT Blakeslee was stricken with heart disease and death came to him while seated in the car riage.
 The remains were taken last night tc the undertaking rooms of E. F. Jones in Winsted and will be brought to New Haven to-day. Z

For a number of years now l have been delivering course of lectures at the Albany Law school. This work and the personal contact with these bright students of the law, many of whom are helping themselves as did I when taking my law course in that same institution, gives me an interest in young men which is steadily grow ing.
 It is perhaps inaccurate to say that this work has given me this interest. It is probably due, more than to any thing else, to a kindly act of a great judge. Chief Judge Church. The recollection of the way his ready sym pathy helped me gave me the motive for a deep interest in young men. remember that great jurist in my first case, weighted down with the responsi- bility Of making an effective presenta- ton of my clent's cause. At the mo- ment I rose to begin my argument I feared failure. Chief Judge Church. divining my, difficulty bowed and said. Now, we will hear you, MT. Parker My nervousness disappeared as by ma gfc under the influence of his friendly act and kindly tone. I plunged into the argument at once. When the l decisions came down my case had been won, as good fortune would have it, and the chief judge had written the 1 opinion.
 Tn the many years have been on the bench, in hardly a case has a young man appeared in court that Chief Justice Church's kindness to me did not flash over me.
 And I have been trying all these years to discharge the debt I owe him by treating the young men coming in I to court as he treated me.
 In my own experience I can recall no stronger illustration of the truth of the saying that the good we do lives after us.'
 It has become fashion during re- cent years to exhort our young men to lead what has been called the strenu- ous life, Not content with our uni versal activity in industry, our work in the conquest of continent, and the \ effort to spread our popular ideas into all the world and thus to make our selves an example for other peoples opportunity, the conclusion seems to have been reached that somehow we I had overlooked something.

 During the practice the varsity SCOT ed twice. The scrubs, however, fought desperately to the finish of the long half, which lasted nearly half an hour. Among the players who hay edevei- oped very rapidly during the past week is Leavenworth, whose defensive work is equal to that of any back or the squad, with possibly the execution of Hoyt.

From Senator Mayleld.

Words fail to express my gratitude to
the good people of Bamberg county fol
the very large vote given me in the recent
primary. I carried my home county BY a
large majority, and received greater
proportion of my home vote than either
of my opponents did Of theirs. I am
deeply grateful for this expression of con.
fdence from my home people, and l shall
try in every way to represent them wor-
thily.
The second primary takes place next
Tuesday, and I ask each man in Bamberg
county who takes pride in seeing our
county brought to the front to turn out
and cast solid vote for Bamberg's can
didate. The matter is not one of person
al feeling, and I lay aside my personality
in asking that this county furnish the
con gresham.
My chances for success next Tuesday
are bright, and with the support and earn
est efforts of my friends trust to be vic
torious. Again thanking you for the
handsome vote and confidence shown, 1
assure you that I shall never forget it
while I live, and I ask your most earnest
efforts in my behalf next Tuesday.
Your obedient servant,
S. G.. MAYFIELD.

Ehrhardt Etchings.

EHRHARDT, September 5.-Harry NJ
Graham, of Greenwood, was in town one
day last week. He is as jovial as ever.
The Knights had memorial service in
their hall last Thursday night. The hall
was tastefully decorated in an appropri.
ate manner for the occasion. Rev. E. M
McKissick made a short talk to the audi.
ence and the young ladies and gentlemen
assisted in the services by singing the
songs selected for the evening. The hall
was crowded and all were well pleased
with the evening. They were disappointed
however, by Mr.. Harry Graham's non
appearance. He had consented to make
the address for the Knights.
C. Ehrhardt s. Sons started their gins
last Saturday morning and were busy
nearly the whole day putting cotton in
shape for the market.
About one hundred and twenty-five
bales of new cotton has been marketed
here in the last three weeks. The staple
of the cotton is as general thing of poor
quality; it is too green to make good
staple.

A Friend In Behalf Of Mr.. Ray.

Editor The Bamberg Herald - was
extremely gratifed at the hearty support
given s. G. Ray for Sheriff in the recent
primary. BE is worthy of the Office, and
the people of Bamberg county will make
no mistake to elect him. He is a man,
every inch of him, and will fearlessly do
his duty, no matter what the emergency,
yet he will exercise judgment and not be
unnecessarily harsh. No better man can
be found for the place, and hope to see
him elected.
Shannon Ray comes of good stock, is
entirely competent, and his administra-
tion will reflect credit upon himself and
the county. He is energetic and faithful,
and even the smallest details will be care
fully looked after. There will be no
criminals escaping from him, for he will
be at his post Of duty when a crime is
committed.
There are many reasons for his election,
but I will not discuss them at this late
day. But I do want to say that the pres.
ent incumbent has held the Office ever
since the county was created (eight years.
and if you elect him this time it means
that he will hold one Office twelve years,
which is, in my opinion, entirely too long
and is not Democratic doctrine or Gus
tom. He himself recognized this, sup
pose, for four years ago he said he would
not run again.
Vote for Ray and you will not regret
it. He is the man for the place, and
believe onr people realize this and that he
will be elecsed by large majority next
Tuesday. FRIEND.
