NEW ARNORY OPENED.
 PRAISE FOR TROOP A
Governor Woodruff Says Every Company Should
 Have Home.

With appropriate ceremonies, the new, armory of Troop A on Orange street was formally opened on satur- day. The entire governors staff to- gether with delegations from other companies were in the parade, which left the central green early in the af- ternoon to march to the new home. The weather was sweltering and made those who happened to be weighed down with heavy trappings very u1- comfortable. The public turned out in force to see the performance, and by the time the armory was reached it was full of people.
 After arrival at the armory the for nal part of the program was first ta- ken care of. Governor Woodruff made the dedicatory address. He said:
 "A great credit is due to Colonel Ludington and to Troop A for the erection of this splendid new building which we are dedicating today. The troop is a great credit to the Nation al guard, and the National guard is the pride of the state. It is a school for the young men of Connecticut and is making better citizens of all who serve in it. Every company of the c. N c. should have suitable home and if we wish to raise the standard we must provide such homes. 1 have visit ed many armories of New York state and other places and have found that everything is done to make them at tractive to young men That should be done here and hope the state will see fit to appropriate money, even if they have to borrow it, to put the Con necticut National guard on the high est standard possible. (cheers) thank you and 1 thank Captain Lud- ington for what you have done for the state"
 Major Studley was also expected to make a speech, but he had not found time to prepare one, and he begged 10 be excused from making an extempore one because of the extremely hot weather.
 After the formal exercises had been completed, the afternoon was given over to entertainment. A band of the troopers gave an exhibition of rough riding and fancy stunts. First Lieut.. William J. Bradnack and Sergeant F. D. CargiI then went into the arena which had been set apart for the sports and fought a gruelling mock broadsword battle. The battle was a real treat to the spectators, who cheer ed Justify. Fortunately the men were using wooden swords, and did each other no damage.
 Under the direction of c. B. Bunton tn, riding teacher, a group of society folk consisting of Hayes Q, Trowbrldge Miss Fannie Trowbrldge Miss Mildred Parish, Miss Anita Warren, Mir and Mrs. H. L. Pardee, D. Campbell Smyth Miss Gilbert, A. H. Ortel of Bridgeport Frank G. Barnes and c. A. DuPuy gave

They are all good things, if they coms as incidents in an honorable ca reer If they come as the price for the slightest loss of personal purity or per- sonal straightness, they are bad The man who takes them at this price has not clean hands and pure heart. The man who even thinks of taking them at this price has lifted up his soul unto vanity, He may at this price gain the position of eminence which he covets: but f. will be as hired servant, not as a Cod given leader. hope that 1t may be said of each one of you that he real- izsi the objects of his ambition--that he did his business with success, or that he realized the objects of his arn- bition-that he did his business with success, or that he extended the bounds of human knowledge in his profession, or that he was chosen to positions of eminence among his fellow men. But I beg you to count each one of these things as small compared with the i'm portance of extending those standards of honor which you have received from those who have gone before until they shall have become a part of yourselves and an influence which shall mark you as true leaders and helpers to your fel- lows And when the diminishing number of your classmates comes back to the successive reunions thirty, and fcrtv and fifty years hence, be assured that their proudest words of remem- brance will not be those wherein they recount the honors which have fallen to your lot, but those in which they say of you quietly to one another, He liv- cd a clean life he was straight as a die: he left the world better for his having lived in it."

clever fancy riding drill with hurdIing by MT. DuPuy. On handsome bay jumper Mir DuPuy cleared the hurdle time after time in stunning fashion.
 A sabre drill by the troop in com mand of Lieutenant Bradnaek followed and then came the most interesting drill of the day, a rehearsal of the march to camp, the pitching of tents, posting the guards, evening sports around the campfire. striking camp and other bits of calavry routine.
 gBrigadier Generals Cole and Frost, who had watched the drill, pronounced It excellent and the former marched in- to the camp with Captain Ludlngton and complimented the troopers on their showing, declaring that he would make every effort to be with them on the march to camp this fall
 The loyalty of the civil war veterans to such an occasion was widely com- mented upon, A delegation from lAd- miral Foote post, F, A. R., formed a conspicuous figure in the line of march.

 For the most dangerous evils are not the ones which are consciously met and defeated by a system of rules. II | is the unseen attacks that do the mis- chief. Against the open assaults of disease, mans body and man soul are both pretty well protected. The physician goes into the sick room heavy with the air of diphtheria and smallpox, and comes out unscathed. Ii Is the little stain on a mans hand, al- most too small to feel or see, that car ries into his body the germs of de- struction. If he has been too lazy or falls, and knows not why If his in herited instinct of cleanliness has led him to wash away the thing which in | Itself seems trifllng, he goes on his way and knows not what he has es- caped. And so it Is in the domain of morals. It is not the great dangers which we see and conquer that form the real sources of peril. It is the lit- tie stains on the heart in which turk the sources of danger that we do moi see. And 1t Is the man whose train ing and instinct lead him to keeI scrupulously and unnecessarily clean to have care for his personal white ness beyond anything for which 1t Is easy to vive a reason--that escapes the snares into which others fall
 To the man of strong feelings and passions the only real safeguard for chastity Is an habitual and instinctlve shrinking from personal contact with what Is common. To the man who is ambitious of bsuiness or professional success the only sure guard against dishonor is an instinctive and unac- countable reluctance to do anything which he will have to explain to his own conscience. To the man whose dangers lie in the direction of dis couragement or pessimism, the best support is a refusal to repeat unprov- ed scandals and an essential unwilling ness to believe evil of his neighhors For with these safeguards the evil is crushed in it's inception; and without them every step is one of peril. If 8 man has no better guide than the statutes and conventions of those about him, he is safe from neither per. sonal nor professional dishonor. il may be true that honesty is the best policy; but 1t is undeniably true that nobody was ever really honest if that was his reason. The only men who are safe are those whose standards oi honor are what the world calls quix otic-which really means that they are Christian.
 And 1t must be the same way witt our standards of truthfulness, These too, must be Christian-quixotica Christian, if you please to call it so They must be stronger and highe, than the social hedge of conventions by which We are surrounded. It i not enough to avoid concrete instance
 of untruth of kind which the worl,
 would recognize and punish if tn facts were known. The man who 1
 content to abstain from temng lie
 and lets his truthfulness go no far
 ther than this. is not much better ol
 than the man who is content wit
 washing his hands and neglects tn
 need of purity of heart.
 When a man tels lie it means tha , some consideration, usually a selfis

for association with his fellow men; for he has taken out of his hands the
 only moral safeguard which can keep him clear of lying in it's first unrecog- nized stages It is not always easy to say where truth ends and falsehood be-
 gins. The man who has in himself no overruling motive to prefer the former to the latter will insensibly depart from the true way, as did Christian when he had gotten over the little plain call- ed Ease. and found path so close to the true one that he felt sure that it led toward the Celestial City in a more comfortable manner than the other But before he was aware of it he had be- come houelessly involved in the do- mains of Giant Despair, where some became so blinded that they never had
 eyes for the truth any more, and where those who weer most fortunate were sorely beaten and buffeted before they had chance to see the true light again.
 The only safeguard is to extend the
 conception of Christian honor in our
 social relations as we extend that of Christian cleanliness in our personal relations; to make up ones mind once for all not only to hate a lie, but to hate the false system of standards that
 will either leave the way open for de-
 ceit or discuss the possibility of a compromise with 1t.
 And just as the purely defensive war fare breeds timidlty and weakness, so
 the aggressive warfare, which accepts once and for all the fnllness of the ob- ligation to be clean and true, breeds
 confidence and strength. It is written of the man of this spirit that he shall
 receive the blessing from the Lord, and
 righteousness from the God of his sa!-
 vation. He shall quickly come to the point where he wants to be good; where he is good because he cannot help it; where it is in his very nature impossi- | ble for him to tamper with what Is un- 1 clean or crooked "He that doeth these 1 things shall never be moved,' says the
 Psalmist in another place. He will have burdens enough to bear. for everybody l from ali over the world will come to
 him with their troubles; but they will
 net be the ignoble burdens and vexa- tions of the man who from moment to l moment debates with himself which
 way he should do, and how far the
 rules that he has adopted will permit
 him to compromise between advantage 1 and honor,
 Gentlemen of the graduating class: You are starting out in life clean and straight. From your fathers and your l mothers you have inherited instincts of
 truthfulness and purity which are
 worth more than anything else they
 have given you. You have the powel
 to take this inheritance and to use

 it better or 10 make it worse.

This is not a place where ( mar can stand still He who deude , himself with the idea that his persona sense of honor can be hedged abou 5 with rules that will keep it safe fror } deterioration is fundamentally wrong : It can be kept bright only by the un stinted use which makes it each da a larger and larger part of man own self.

and expresses his doubt whether you
really used the language attributed to
you.
His criticism, coming as it does from
"a FRIEND" is given more prominent
place in the opposition press than it
could secure if it came from an avowed
enemy and thus does more harm. Every
man who interests himself in politics
has such professed friends to encounter
as soon as he has influence enough to
make it worth while for any one to be-
tray him.
The Bible furnishes us with an illus
"And Joab said to Amasa, art thou in
health, my brother? And Joab took
Amasa by the beard with the right hand
to kiss him, and Amasa took no heed to
the sword that was in Joab's hand; 50
he smote him Herewith in the fifth rib. -
This experience has been repeated many
times, but the wounds inflicted by Joab
have not always been fatal.-Jewish

rying about your mistakes. Instead of
advising you privately, he uses the pub
lie prints to assure you that he loves
you in spite of your faults and weak
nesses; he loves you so much that he
sometimes intimates that your death or
disappearance would be fortunate for
you and that the party and the country
might bear the calamity for your sake
He details all the ISLANDERS that he can
find, and when he cannot find enough,
he manufactures some and introduces
them with "they say He rolls as
''sweet morsel under his tongue" each
unkind word which he can gather or in
vent, and in so doing expresses his re-.
gret that such injustice or, at least,
questionable charges should be made
against one to whom he is so attached
He is sure that these charges will do
you harm if he does not publish them,
enlarge upon them and express his hope
that they are exaggerated. He quotes
misrepresentation of your utterances
