THE FOURTH VOLUME
Of Miss Bartlett's "Connecticut as Col
 ony and State.''

Of Miss Bartlett's Connecticut as Col
 ony and State"
 The fourth volume of the historical work "Connecticut as Colony and State, published by the Publishing so- ciety of Connecticut, has just appeared. 1t is of special interest to New Haven people from the fact that it was writ ten by Miss Ellen Strong Bartlett, of this city, already well known as a graceful and forceful writer on 'histori- cal subjects This volume covers the period extending from the outbreak of the civil war down to 1904, and en- braces the entire civil and political, military, industrial and literary history of the state during that eventful and progressive epoch.
 It will be easily seen that such an undertaking, to be successfully accom- plished, required not only an extraordi- nary amount of research and a high quality of good judgment in the selec- tion and arrangement of diversified material but an unusual degree of lit- erary skill, to present such an accumu- Iation of matter within a single volume in areadable a form. ...s. ..
 Miss Bartlett has certainly achieved her laborious and difficult task with wonderful ability, and whoever takes up the book will find it hard to lay it down before he reads the end of it. To quote the words of the editor-in- chief of the publication with respect to Miss Bartlett's work is to express the unavoidable verdict of all her readers: TO have the satisfaction of reading real contributions to the states his- tory, well digested, well proportioned, written in cultivated English, relieved by entertaining episodes, and all show ing the work of one lovingly familiar with the states life-all this is lux ury like the biblical cup of cold wa ter"

MADAME BRRscHKoysKY.

Madame Breschkovsky lectured at Warmer Hall last evening on the Rus sian revolutionary movement. Her sub- ject was the necessity of the sympathy of Russians living in the United States with the efforts of those who are car- rying. on the movement in Russia. She thinks that the present is the most effective time for work in Russia.
 Madame Breschkovsky Is about 60 years old and is 8 woman of very strong features. She beams with good nature, and does not look as if she would be. dangerous to anything that is right. She has been engaged in the propaganda since early in the 70s. She was arrested for her zeal in spreading Knowledge among the peasants and spent tWenty-two years in Siberia, eight of which were in prison at hard labor, the rest as free exile, doing work as a nurse in hospitals and prisons, and not forgetting to carry on her own mis- sion among the non-political prisoners
 She has had a long and sad experience of Russian tyranny, and though it has not broken her down 1t has left it's marks upon her. On her return from Siberia to Russia in 1896 she at once began to work again for her principles, and had the pleasure of finding many more interested in them than when she was siezed and transported. She has been, in the United States about a month, and intends to stay here for three months. She will lecture in diff ferent places, and will endeavor to create all the sympathy she can for the oppressed Russians. ...a."

ATHLETICS IN AMERICA.

The United States for many years has had the champion prziefighter of the world, while her athletes in other sports head the lists in almost every event in the last few years. This country carried off the championship for single scull at the diamond souls in England, and has beaten England, bIreland and sctoland at their own special and particular games. As for rifle and pistol shooting. America holds the worlds honors. On the turf our horses have won the Derby and the Grand Prix, while nobody has vet been able to lift the cup for yachting, held for nearly half a century.
 This is the present record of a na- tion whichlat the time Charles Dickens made his visit. was looked upon as O land of dyspeptics, consumptives and overworked whiskey drinkers and to- bacco users. The athletic spirit in the aland to-day is everywhere noticeable. The idle wealthy are becoming a race of athletes. Those who are busy man. age to spend an hour or two each day for recreation and physical exercise and as a result our health, strength and vitality compare favorably with those any civilized people.
 Those wholesome changes in habit seem to have been spontaneous. Amer lcans are naturally Outdoor" people, and when the strenuous chase after the almighty dollar has slackened a little the old desire for the mountains, fields, forests and ocean returns.-Chi- cago Journal.

Of 200 officers and men, also the regular

It is undoubtedly a reward Of merit, would

fortunately they are the very ones that
