However public confidence
may change and the public
affections fuctuate with resp ct
to others. yet with respect TO
him they have, in war and
peace, in public and in private
life. been as steady as his own
firm mind, and as constant as
his own exalted virtues
Let us then, Mr.. Speaker,
pay the last tribute of respect
and affection to our departed
friend. Let the grand council
of the nation display those SEN
timents which the nation feels.
For this purpose, I hold in
my hand some resolutions which

Democrats who are readers of

Robertson should give no heed
TO what it says about the dem.

Tuat fellow Robertson is a re-
publican wolf in sheep clothing,
and he had rather break up the
democratic party than to see
prohibition. which he pretends
to be fighting for, win. In a re-

date for governor, and Iibels
Senator Frank McAllis!er. He
says Senator McAllister prov

democrats of this district or

COMFORTING WORDS.
Many a Connecticut Household Will
 Find Them So.

To have the pains and aches of bad back removed; to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous urinary disorders is enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove com forting words to hundreds of Connecticut readers.
 Mrs. M. Wagner, of 1897 Kossuth St., Bridgeport, Conn. says; Il suffered for years from kidney trouble. There was a severe pain across my Joins so that l could not rest at night. When l caught cold it settled in my kidneys and at such times 1 became weak, and also very nervous. After trying several remedies without relief procured Doan's Kidney Pills at F. $. Stevens drug store, and they soon relieved me of the aches and pains. The nervous and weak feeling also left me. I can speak as highly in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills to-day as l did six years ago when I recommended them through the papers"

HaIevv anJ tbe pue d. Morrv.

It may not be generally known in what circumstances Halevy owed his advancement in the French civil serv- Ice to the Due de Morny. The duke. an amateur of the arts. had begun to write the libretto of comic opera of which Onenbach was to provide the music. He found that he had not the time-or perhaps that he had not the talent-tO finish 1t. He sought collaborator, and Halevy came to the rescue and kept his secret When. therefore, the office of the ministry of Algeria. which be held, was suppressed he had no hesita- ton in asking his august patron for the post which he sought on the Journal omciel. '"The very thingr' exclaimed the duke. ''There Is six months vaca- ton when the chamber is not sitting. 50 that you will have plenty of time to write for the stage" And he gave him a note to the head of the depart ment, consisting of the simple words, Make arrangements to give the bearer the postsfor which he will ask you."- Westminster Gazette.

Buried Treasures In England.

There must be good deal of treas ure in the form of church plate and SO forth concealed in different parts of the country, as quantities of 1t were buried at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries. There are two legends in Worcestershire regarding some silver bells, for instance, which have been handed down most persist ently from one generation to another since the sixteenth century. One yer sion of the story is that the bells were buried by the last abbot of Evesham, Abbot Lichfield, in a subterranean passage which formerly existed be- tween the abbey and house on the opposite bank of the river, while the other story has it that peal of silver bells was buried at the same period (the dissolution of the monasteries) at Abbots Morton, a village ten miles dis tant from Evesham.-Wide World Magazine.
