and critical centres. This from the Tribune of recent date:
 "A great kuarrel has broken out in those New England homes of light and leading. Pawtucket, Providence and Boston, as to which is the dog town for new plays It started with Pawtucket's resentment at slurring
 gags aimed at that city by actors playing there, Pawtucket enjoys the kind of theatrical entertainments wherein the height of humor Is local
 gag, but likes to have those jests of flattering import, Insults from the stage wounded the towns self-respect. Now Boston, hearing of Pawtuckets S grief and regarding with great self complacency it's own intellectual heg- emony in New England jeeringly test fies that actors have habltually treated Pawtuekets neighbor, Providence, with seorn and contumely. The Boston Journal says:
 Actors of rank and managers of high standing have for years looked upon Providence as dog" town, or, in other words. as the place of all others where dramatic trials were to be made, on the principle that if the show could not satisfy the naive and archaic dramatic tastes of the people of Providence it was useless to att tempt it anywhere else
 Providence retorts that, if 1t Is a dog town what 1t condemns fails and what is approves succeeds, while as off Boston, there have been dozens of stage productions that have caused ecstasy in Boston, only to be received later with utter contempt in New York and other discriminating cen tres"
 50 long as they all unite to regard New York as a discriminating cen tre' we may watch this pretty quar- rel witj1 impartial interest. Cities in the Kerosene Circuit, are always ex- tremely sensitive about what actors
 think of them; in the metropolis it is the actors who are sensitive regard ing what the cities think of them.'
 Wrong, New York. We don't all un- ite to regard you as a discriminating centre" Providence apparently does for the Journal of that town hints
 that things we of the Hub like first Gotham crushes. Never mind Boston admits nothing of New York superior. ity except in size, noise and flamboy- ant luxury; certainly not as a judge fthe artistic, whether in literature ! painting or the drama. We are quite
 able to judge the merits of plays with out previous or subsequent assistance from New York, Providence or Squee' dunk.-From the Boston Journal.

conditions were named as the price of success III health, the lack of ten aeity and of education, certain de- fleets of mental vision and the failure of the individual Ito adjust himself to the universe" were the conditions pre- cedent to failure.
 These foolish explanations and con lectures by charlatan writers, who pretend to exhibit some sort of scien- tific method in their discourses of life, suggest the folk tale explaining how the sea came to be salt. A well-dis posed wizard, be it known, gave to a worthy but desperately poor man a certain wonderful little automatic nill somewhat like like the common coffee mill of the domestic kitchen. When the owner made the command to the mill to grind soup or fish or anything else the little wonder began to turn out the product with great rapidity, and would continue until the crack of doom to produce unless the owner should say, "Hocus-p -pocus, stop
 In the course of time, the. owner, having got everything his heart could desire, sold the mill to a rich com bination of foreigners, or, as we should say now, syndicate, whose memebers took the mill aboard ship l to go to their home. On the way there was need of salt, and the mill was commanded to grind out the salt. When a huge pile of salt had accumu- lated upon the deck, the owners commanded the mill to stop; but, while they could think of -panky, stop" and many other mystical words they could not think of ''hocus-pocus, ? and as the salt began to weigh the ship down to the water line the peo- pie were obliged to toss the mill over- board. Thus from that day to this the sea has been salt.
 As scientific explanation of the saltiness of the sea this appears not to be wholly satisfying, but it is as good as the scientific formula which any human being can give as means of arriving at success, as satisfying as most of the explanations that can be offered for the failure of many men in life, In truth, the failure of some men can only be explained by saying 1 that they do not know how to succeed Tenacity, health, strength and cour- age are powerful aids in any human enterprise, and joined with intelligence and character they will, in the vast majority of cases, result in distin- guished success; but, nevertheless many who appear to have those quail ties fail for some inexplicable reason to reach the goal.
 Indifferent health, not quite SC much industry, a little lower degree oi perseverance, an intelligence appar' entity much alower, a feebler courage and quite inferior education often
 times bear along the possessor on tn, current, aided by every favoring gale
 past his more worthy competitor. I
 is pretty certain that laziness, indif
 ference, rank ignorance. stupidity ant feeble resolution will almost inevitabl.
 fail; but It is idle to blink the fac
 that among men of the like rank i
 teh realm of intelligence and strengt
 of character there is an inscrutabl difference in respect to what has bee called the faculty of success, and i

 They Have No Ground for Protest.

the protest of the Union school of West Haven in regard to the basketball championship of the grammar schools is not known, but 1t is not thought probable that any claim on the part of Union school will amount to very much.
 The Union school claims that it has been cheated out of the game with Cedar school in the final championship contest, by the rank decisions of the referee. The Y. M. c. A, authorities stated last evening that the ruling of the referee was at all times correct, that the Cedar school team won the game, thus winning the championship, made the Union school sore as the re. suit
