 When men of 80 remark that the present prOtracted spell of hot wea- ther is the worst they ever knew, it gives some indication of what is doing weather-wise. Although there was a good breeze yesterday in the afternoon, the mercury kept on rising in the tube and the maximum of g was reached. It was hot even on the trolley cars, except when riding against the wind.
 The thunder storm which broke over this section just before , o'clock We'd nesday afternoon, continuation of this hot period, was refreshing in the ex treme and many got the first really invigorating breath of air in many days.
 This hot weather has increased the sickness considerably and the doctors are busy. There is a good deal of ill., ness among small children and many infants suffer very much from the eff fects of the intense heat.

STOKES--TRYON.

The residence of Mrs. Anna Sparks of Old Saybrook was the scene Tues day afternoon of one of the prettiest weddings ever witnessed in that vicin- ity, the occasion being the marriage of her granddaughter, Mabel C. Tryen, to Frederick K. Stokes of Hartford, The rooms were handsomely decorated in yellow, green and white. The bridal party stood under an arch of green and white and a wedding bell hung over them. As the party descended the stairs Mrs. c. E. Lynde of New Haven played the wedding march from 'Lohengrin." The bridegroom entered first and he was followed by the ush- CTS, Herbert B. Stokes; brother of the bridegroom, and Leon Ravens. The bride was unattended. The ceremony was performed by Rev. E. E. Bacon, pastor of the First Congregational church.
 The bride wore a handsome dress of white brocaded satin and lace, cut en train, and she wore veil. She carried a shower bouquet of white sweetpeas. The brides only ornament was locket dlIu CIdlit Il40 SIAC oL IhC OtAu0SAO"lt' A wedding lunch was served after the ceremony.

Good Hope, exhausted the markets of the islands ofsFrance and Bourbon, and pushing onward, entered the Straits of Babelmadeb and secured the trade of the Red Sea. They brought from Ma dras, Calcutta and Bombay the best of their staples, and mad their choice of the products of Ceylon and Sumatra, and a large share of the Canton trade. Their ships were seen in every part of the Indian seas, and held in respect by all commercial nations.
 Such a service developed a fine type of manhood. and no American city in the early years of 1900 could boast of prouder names than the Derbys, Crow inshieldh, Forresters, Thorndikes, Pea bodys, Pickmans, Vests and Silsbees of Salem. The very nature of these voyages gave a peculiar character to the people, as has been remarked by J. N. Reynolds in his fascinating account of the voyage of the United States frig- ate Potomac. The length of time passed by these sea captains on the ocean gave them fine opportunities to improve their minds. From among the asters. supercargoes and other of- f1cers of these Indiamen, it is said there have been from the town of Salem a great number of the members of each branch of the legislature of the state, three embers of congress, two secreta- ries of the navy, United States sena- tor, and great mathematician, second to no one in ancient or modern times, YTrk AaI Newton and enlarged the heavens of La Place.
 Moreover, in the dire need of war the merchants of Salem and the neighbor- ing towns of Marblehead and Beverly were first to take out letters of maruue and reprisal and form that fleet of pri- vateersnen whose service turned in our behalf the trembling scales of war in both of our conflicts with England. The privateersmen of New England won more victories and captured more prizes in the wars of the Revolution and of 1872 than the entire fleets of our navy, and without them the annals of those days would not have added such renown to the sea power of America.
 The patriotism of the Salem n1er- chants was again illustrated when, in October, 17sS, at 8 mass meeting in the Salem courthouse, they voted to build by private subscription a frigate of thirty-two guns and present her as a ship-of-war to the United States navy to suppress the French ravages on our West India trade. It was a day of re- joicing when the white oak for her frames was hauled into town, and in the presence of cheering thousands on a September day in 1799 there was launched the Essex, in size smallest of our frigates, but in achievements one of the most glorious. For a while this ship protected commerce in the Indian ocean: then participated nthe chas- tisement of the Barbary pirates, and in the war of 1872 made her name illustri- ous by an heroic engagement with the British, when among the crew she car ried a midshipnan by the name of Far ragut.-New York Tribune.

OUR COIN IN CANADA.
Why New Nickel Coin There Has
 Pean PrOposed

Why 8 New Nickel Coin There Has Been Proposed.
 The uprising of Canadian business men to expel American coins from the circulation of the Dominion was large ly directed at first against the "cart- wheel" dollar, which seems to be much more common there than it Is here. Now the movement comprehends all United States coin. Our money is no more legal tender in Canada than Canadian money is here, but along the border it has been tolerated on &C., count of popular convenience.
 Similarly in upper New Hampshire, In Vermont and in some districts of Maine one comes across Canadian sil- yer and bills in circulation and store keepers make accumulations of both to meet local demands. There is French Canadian element, more. or less transient to be catered to, and in Woodsville and some other places thereabouts the shops display signs in English and French.
 But Canada being smaller cannot af- ford continued toleration of & practice that makes little impression in the United States. To get the American coins out once and for all, a new Canadian coinage of nickel has been proposed. Some of the advocates of this suggestion have even urged nick el quarters. Judging from Canadian papers, this is going too far to meet the approval of business men who, while admitting the convience of nick els for small coins believe that the difference in intrinsic value between the two metals must limit it's usage in coining money.
 Canadians fear the general employ ment of nickel would have a debasing effect on the whole currency. Possibly there would not be so much of an or ganized effort in behalf of nickel coin age if it were not for thefact that Sudbury, Ont, is the only place in North America where this metal is produced. There may be an artfully de- signed nickel boom" under all this agitations-Boston Evening Tran script.

HOOKER. EseAPEs 2 REMOVAL.

Albany, July 20.-supreme Court Jus tice Warren B. Hooker of Fredonia es- capped removal from office to-day by the failure of the removal resolution to receive the necessary two-thirds vote of the Assembly, the Senate not being compelled to put itself on record.

St. Pa.rick's Wonderful Work.

ST. Patrick was not the first rri. st
to visit Ireland. Pope Celestine sent
Palladius there before Patrick, and
SO the Irish adage says: Not to Pal
ladius. but to Patrick. did God grant
the conversion Of Ireland" The story
of the life Of st. Patrick in Ireland is
as full OF the fanciful as that of his
early life elsewhere. AS he progress
ed through the land dogs sent against
him turned to stone in the act of hurl-
ing themselves upon him; armed men
found themselves paralyzed as they
poised their weapons to take his life;
green wood was made to burn ma
gicians, while dry wood would not
ignite to scorch the saint. Divested of
these imaginary episodes the story is
sufficiently wonderful. Churches were
founded, converts flocked to The
priests standards, idolatry and iguor-
ance disappeared before the march of
the saint, and II the snakes were not
actually cast out of Ireland, snakes
that had harmed the land for a long
time were scotched. The wild prince,
and their families became Christians.
The common people followed their ex-

Antiquity Of Irish Emblem.

The antiquity of the shamrock as
an Irish national emblem is assaiied
The learned and painstaking DIR. p.
w. Joyce says: 1T is not easy to de-
termine the origin of the Irish custom
of wearing bunch of shamrocks in
the hat on st. Patrick's day-the 18th
of March. According to the popular
belief it commentaries an incident in
the life of st. Patrick-that on a GER
tain occasion, when he was explain
ing the mystery Of the Trinity to the
pagan Irish, he took up single sham
rock and pointed out the three leaves
growing from one stem to illustrate
the doctrine Of the three persons in
one God. But this story must be an
invention of recent times, for we find
no mention Of it in any of the old lives
of the saint. Neither are we able to
say that the custom itself is of any
higher antiquity; for though it is now
observed by the Irish all over the
world, and though it is mentioned by
a few writers of the last 200 or 300
years-as. for instance, by Thomas
Dinely in 1875, who describes how the
Irish wore crosses and shamrocks on
st. Patrick's day-yet we find no al
lusion to it in ancient Irish writings
