GOETHE AT MARIENBAD.
Hunted Geological Specimens on the Hills-When Wagner Was Visitor.

Hills-When Wagner Was Visitor.
 Once Marienbad had come into being 1t lost no time in making It's name. In 1921 Goethe had arrived for his first cure" and the name of the hotel where King Edward is lodged to-day commemorates the early Weimar. He was struck by the rapid development of the town. It put him in mind, he writes, of one of those towns of North America where the virgin forest is cleared one year to make room for city the next.
 Goethe was the first, and perhaps the greatest, of the long list of eel ebrities Marienbad has entertained. He became very fond of the place and in the intervals of his philander- ing with Frau von Levetzow pottered about on the hills for geological specimens The high school still boasts among its treasures a small collection of minerals and stones made and arranged by the great poet with his own hands.
 But fast as Marienbad was grow ing at the time of Goethe's visit, 300 visitors made up the full tale of it's 'cure guests" However, its earliest patrons seem always to have been persons of fashion and distinction, who came in style and brought their servants, their coaches and their horses. One magnate in Goethe $ day brought the whole of his court orchestra to take the "cure" with him.
 After Goethe, Richard Wagner was perhaps Marienbad's most fam ous and, at one time, most regular visitor. He probably composed a good deal of the first draft of Io- hengrin" here, and he gave the orig inal MS of "Rienzi" to his friend, the conductor of Marienbad's band Pail Mall Gazette.

the next time one of the Hartford papers refers to New Britain as being suburb of Hartford, There was a time, not so very long ago. when the Herald would not advertise a Hart ford business house in It's columns, fearful lest the New Britainites would rush away from home, to Hartford, to buy things. All that Is changed now. since Bob" Vance passed away. and 1t can be said with more truth now than ever that the home of the Landers, Corbins and Bradys is more of suburb than ever, for very many people do their trad ing in Hartford .

scribed, and probably there is no exaggeration about 1t, forf much good material goes into the staff of employees of large department house Hartford Times.
 The attitude of MT Lilley is pre- posterous from every point of view and he should be doubly rebuked now that he has returned to unsup- ported gossip and tittle-tattling. The outings of the Young Mems Repub- lican club are not the place to repeat unproven charges any more than the Waterbury club or any other social body is the place to repeat and man- ufacture charges against the govern ment in two of its branches. The place to make them is on the floor of congress, a place which was open to him the moment the investigation committee made its report but which he ran away from on the plea of ill., ness. We do not believe for a mo- ment that the shrewd and intelli- gent people of the state of Connecti- cut will with their votes approve a candidacy for office which has at last settled itself voluntarily on a basis of personal distrust of the federal gov- ernment. If they do decide to do such preposterous thing we advise that they at the same time make their protest the more effective by defeating the national ticket in Con- neLsicut, the seond committee on which has called MT Lilley harsh names. MT Lilley had an opportun- ity to make good his charges. He ran away from that opportunity. He is to-day in the attitude of a man under indictment who seeks to make his state go bail for him.-New Ha- ven Journal-Courier.

GUIDES OF THE ALPS.

t=
 When you first meet the man who is to go with you to the top of the great peak which looms against the skyline in the distance, you naturally look at him intently, for if this is the first mountain climb, the feeling comes to you that your life is in his hands. You feel strangely helpless and dependent, but his appearance is apt to raise your spirits. His rugged, tanned features wear an expression of good nature. He is well-knit and muscular, as the athletic would say
 His clothes, perhaps of homespun made by his wife, are just the sort to stand wear and tear, and if he is not clad in boots, his heavy shoes have thick soles which are generally studded with hob nails to prevent slipping on the ice or smooth rock. The coil of rope swung over his shoul der is at least 100 feet long, and stout enough to hold three or four men in midair, if need be. He is further armed for the attack on the mountain with an ice ax, with which to cut footholds in the glaciers if necessary, while he carries what in English would be called an alpine stick-a pole of hardwood, upon ono end of which is fastened an iron cas- ing which ends in a straight sharp point and usually has hook project ing from one side like boat hook. Looking him. over one gets the idea that the guide knows just what is needed in his business, and after you become a bit acquainted, he may prove an entertaining companion, as he can tell many an interesting story about his adventures. But he is sell dom given to what boy calls "brag- ging,' and as a rule talks little about himself unless you question him. Not until the climb begins. however, do the tourists realize what a really wonderful knowledge this simple peasant has of the mountains. As the adventurers get higher and high re and at last reach the snowfie!d which seems so easy to cross, they are halted by the guide while he cautiously treads upon it, testing it for concealed gaps into which one might fall hundreds of feet Below the snow may be a sheet of smooth ice. Just the footsteps of the party of the sound of their voices might be enough to cause the snow to slip down its icy incline and carry al with it perhaps a thousand feet into the valley below. Many an ava lanche, 1t is asserted, has been caused by such a trifie as this. If Johann or Heinrich or Luigi, as his name happens to be, thinks it can be crossed, he is apt to unwind his coil of rope and fasten his followers to it, keeping them Is or 20 feet apart. Then he tells each to tread in the footprints he makes, because it is safe. and thus the journey pro- ceeds. Should any one happen to fall into a creyasse-as the great crevices in the snow and ice are termed-he cannot go far unless by chance he should pull the others in after him. Many a life has been saved by this wise precaution of rop- ing, as the others can keep from slipping, by driving their alrenstoclSs firmly into the snow. thus overcom- ing the pull caused by the weight Of the fallen man.-Day Allen Wiley In the September St Nichols.

Look long enough, and you will find the weak spot in every one.- New Haven Palladium.
 Congressman Lilley's weak spot came to the surface early enough People didn't have to look more than once or twice, and he is magni- flying the spot as the campaign grows older, which leads one to call to mind the old adage. about giving a man rope enough etc, etc: His sec ond attack on congress and the sub marine boat company will not help his case very much. It begins to look as though Lilley had already shot his bolt
