HAY HARVESTING.

Farmers Having Harvest Time of
 Their Lives.
 The farmers are having the hardest time of their life getting in their hay crop. The crop has been the largest in this section of Connecticut in years, and those farmers who desired to har- vest it without getting the hay wet have not only had to hustle, but have had to be weather prophets as well. The having season has been a very bad one, with barely enough sunshine to cure the grass as it has been cut. No farmer has dared to cut more than he has been able to put in the barn in short order, for the rains have been so sudden and so liable to continue, after once starting, that there has been dan ger of losing all the hay caught down. Some of the farmers are not through their having yet, which is very unu- sual thing. They say that the delay has been due to the wet weather and to the great size of the crop. Winsted 1 Citizen.

PAIN IN PARIS

The sole effect rain seems to have on French spirit is to bring out it's bright II pleutw (''Ah, it rains!) And mor- sieur, dressed with scrupulous care, ready to sally forth, does not stop for an umbrella, probably, but steps out iauntily into the street and makes no more unfriendly comment on the weather than "Il ne fait pas beau ce matin." (''It is not fine this morning.D
 This is the French point of view. Discomfort of any sort is for them only the negative of something desira- ble, and so they keep their minds on what is pleasing, naming it to define the absence of 1t. Lapetite Helene and her little brother Henri, who go to school in the neighb0rhood, trot along in the rain, the bonne at their heels carrying their school bags. Henri wears a. capuchon-a cape with the hood drawn up over his head. Helene holds over her head a minuscule umbrella, which she tilts is such fashion as to make the most of the rain. Unrebuked by any threat of something awful to re- suit if a drop of water falls on them, both children dance along in the wet, letting the drops fall on their upturned faces and laughing in glee as if the rain were another playfellow.

twenty. He found billets In "a ginber- Deer factory" on a railway, kep i work and elsewhere. But presently, out of Work, he reached the common lodging-house at pourpence a nlght' That was six years ago. l could not ask if he still looked for jobs. he told me he had been at this six years this" meaning standing about railway 1 stations. For six years Dick has had no other home than the fourpenny 'doss- house" if one leaves jail out of count Sometimes he would pick up a couple CT bob" in a day. at others not half that, and sometimes nothing at all.
 "Eroorse, I 'as ter git bit Ter 'elp at times"
 "Who from?" I asked.
 "Other chaps like meself," he ex- plained; 'or ther's the Salvationers, an the soup -kitchins. an the like CT that"
 On the following evening I walked that way with police officer of my acquaintance, pointed Dick out | (though my friend knew him perfectly | well by aame), and obtained the police view of the man.
 Him want a job! Yes, he'd do half an hours work most any time, but you'd never get him for a day" Dick had told me himself he had no wish to leave London. He spoke of the coun- 1 try as we might speak of exile in the Sahara. I learned that one kindly old lady had been moved to pity by Dick s thin face, and installed him in her garden at Streatham, with good food, a comfortable home, and eight shil- lings week pocket-money, his work being to help the gardener and learn the craft from him. Dick endured 1t for nearly a fortnight-that was four years ago-and-well, the old lady shut her lips firmly when the police in- quired as to the exact circumstances of his departure. Sine was kindly, indulgent old soul,
 There were two other rather similar things placed in Dicks way at other times. Frankly, it was not true that he desired steady work; it was not true that drunkenness was the most serious offence for which he had done time; larceny counts higher. But it was true that the police knew him well and were angrily conscious of the fact wepe not rare, and that Dick occasion ally had money enough for bursts of heavy drinking and of flashing it in pery customer, he is, can tell you, " l said the sergeant.
 Since then I have studied Dick in the course of three interviews, and my regretful conclusion is that he will never escape from the slavery of the streets, Full or hungry. drunk or so- Der, with or without his fourpence for bed, the horrid fascination for the vicious liberty of the streets has firm hold upon Dick Green. A serf, If ever there was one, h0 holds he is his own master in the streets. As fact I know of few creatures in the world of London who are less masters of them selves than these men street-walkers. They are born of Scarcity of Employ ment, out of Absence of Discipline; their name is legion; and, considered | in the mass, they are prominent fea- ture of the neither world. Their last state is that of the 'pubIc-house prop" and their end is horrible,-St. James Gazette

THE STORY OF LUCKY" BALD.
 WIN.

WIN.
 In 1853, or more than a half century ago, a little party of gold-seekers with a meager outfit of horses and wagons, started for California from the village of Racine, Wisconsin, In command of this adventurous expedition was young man who took with him his wife and infant daughter. His name was F. J. Baldwin and he made wise choice in shaking from his restless feet the dust of a tanner civilization. He needed a larger theater of action for his pent, up and surging activities. While trail- ing through the mountains of Utah the pioneers were attached by Indians, who were beaten off during six-hour light in which young Baldwin killed their chief. After six months of hardship, the party reached Hangtown Cater called Placerville) In California
 Here Baldwin tarried and began placer mining. He appears to have been no more than an ordinary red shirted argonant meeting the ups and downs of mining luck until the dis coverv of the Comstock Lode at Vir- ginia City. Thither he drifted, and dis covered that his natural bent was gambling with the mines that other men had opened Amid whirland of speculation he fought his way with I such success that he loomed from the smoke in few months as Lucky 1 Baldwin, the man who had cleaned up seven and half million dollars in the gigantic in the stock of the Ophir mines,
 San Francisco was the Mecca of those l lucky sons of fortune who were rearing 4 great city by the Golden Gate. As a stock and mining speculator, Lucky Baldwin shone resplendent but he was also loyal son of San Francisco. He i built hotels and theaters and business blocks, even while he was amazing that far from conservative community by l madly freakish extravagances.
 In a very lucid interval he bought all the Spanish grants he could find near Los Angeles. and there spent million in making this ranch of his not only a splendidly productive property but also 1 one of the most beautiful estates ever laid out in this or any other country It was his hobby, his pet, and he plant. ed miles of avenues with shades trees and made wonderful tropical gardens so that to-day his home is surround ed by paradise of vernal beauty Ralph D.

ELM TREE BEETLE RETURNS.
Its Ravages Apparent In Many Sec

Its Ravages Apparent In Many Sec
 tions of the State.
 Here and there about the state the presence of the elm tree beetle has been discovered, and the trees are suf- fering in consequence. In Hartford, according to the Courant, its ravages are plainly apparent. Portions of the Naugatuck valley also show that it is around again.
 Three'yea ago says the Courant, it will be remembered, the trees suffered in just the same way and at that time the agitation brought about an effec- tive spraying campaign, which killed off the insects for a time. But the three-year period has passed and the time is ripe for another killing. A tree stripped of its leaves one year will bear leaves the next year without suf- fering greatly, although it will take several years for 1t to entirely recover it's normal strength. During the last two years the trees have not been troubled to any great extent and peo- pie had come to feel that the pest was

THE oNg IMPORTANT HEREsY.

TILE oN1 IMPORTANT HEREsY.
 The wort heresy is not that of the intellect; i is the heresy of the heart, the heresJ that affects the everyday life and Tactice of men. To express
 belief in tie life of Jesus as the exam pie of our lives, and then to live our lives for Grselves and oursss, giving only petty toll In what we call char ity, that ii to deny the very founda- tion princhal of the teaching of the gospel of Jsus Christ. To declare our belief that through him and his sacri- ice we are redeemed, to say that on Him we est ourselves for salvation, and then tt make a rnockery of 1t all
 py living or lives for ourselves, not sharing Hissacrlfice with him, not de- voting ourselves to the service of our less fortunae brethren; that is to cru
 city Jesus aresh; that is to be like the devils of wlom St. James speaks who have faith without works.
 This Is tle great heresy, the dead Hest heresy, the heresy of the denial of Jesus Chris in our lives. And it is precisely thu heresy that is most wide spread as we'll as dangerous, in our churches everywhere, tempting each
 of us day y day Is not this part of what the clurch means to teach us when she mikes Holy Communion one of the two sacraments generally ne- eessary to stlvation?" The very name communion, suggests that our relag ton to one mother in Christ is an ab- solute essential of our relation to God;
 that it is impossible to be a child of 1 the Father In Heaven unless one is in
 very truth brother to his fellowmen. It is a communion" because the un- ion that we seek with God must be at- tained with and through our brothers. ] A brotherhood that exists only with in the walls of the church is a sham and a hypocrisy To profess that
 brotherhood and not to carry 1t into business and social relations, to leave lit out of the warp and wool of our daily life, is to be false to the Christ we contess and to the gospel in which we profess to trust He who professes to give himself and all that he has to the service of the Master-whieh for i us is the service of our fellownen-and ! then gives but a part, and holds back the rest like Ananias and sapphira, is already on the threshold of spiritual death. The man who does that cannot enter into life, for life is love and love is sacrifice, and if there Is no sacrifice all his profession of religion is vain
 That, too, is heresy. Let us by all I means beware of false and imperfect
 teaching in regard to any article of the ; Christian faith. Let us strive with al
 our minds for the fullest and the tru- ! est knowledge of God and of His Son but let us also remember that Chris f lived and died for us, not merely tha we might know something, but that W,
 might be and do something, and tha
 to deny that obligation Is to be faith
 less to vows that all of us took on tn,
 threshold of our Christian life | Churchman

a thing of the past, whereas 1t is re- curing in a very violent shape
 There are a number of methods of hghting the insect, but spraying thor oughly and effectively done is the only adequate method known. Hand spray Ing has been done in Hartford but it IS slow, tedious and expensive meth- cd, and is not already sufficiently thor ough to kill all the beetles on a tree.
 At present the cost of spraying is from two to ten dollars per tree by the hand method, and it requires two or three hours for a single tree if the work is well done. The actual cost of the material used in the spray is not over ten cents for a large tree. With proper apparatus, only few minutes Is required for tree and the total cost may be reduced to fifty cents a tree.

AN OLD ARMY SURGEON.

 Major Thomas McManus and Dr. Will
 liam E. Woods Live Over Civil War
 Days
 pr. William B. Woods, surgeon of the Twenty-f1fth Regiment, Connecti- cut Volunteers, and who is the only surviving member (except Major Thomas McManus of this city) of it's field and staff, is still living at somers in Holland county, in the same house where he commenced practice as a young physician, sixty-five years ago. The doctor who is S7 years of age, is in very feeble health, and his sight has lamost totally failed, but his mind is as clear as ever and his memory is wonderful, accurate and tenacious of even the minute events of his busy life The major visited him on Thursday (July 25,) and the two spent the time sitting on the veranda giving to one another information concerning the fortunes of their brother officers and regimental assistants.
 One of the principal officials of the pension office, who visited Dr. Woods officially. several years ago in search of very important information relating to pension claims, reported that Dr. Woods memoranda and records, which the official had journeyed expressly from Washington to examine, sur passed in accuracy and completeness of detail those of any surgeon of any regiment during the Civil war. From the very beginning of his service on Campield ground in Hartford to the disbanding of the regiment, each sol diers name who was treated by him for sickness or wound with treatment
