BaIIinqer to Kerby.

Frederick NJ Kerby has lost his po- sition as d stenogra pher in the interior department. Probably there has been no hour since his recent statement ap- peared in print when he did not know that bfs employment was at an end.
 His dismissal was entirely proper. He had divulged information acquired ln confidential ca apacity. He had spread this information broadcast. The deed was committed at the particular moment when its effect upon his for mer superior would be most disas- tfous.
 AIr. Kerby defends his act upon con Scientfous grounds. He spoke accord ing to his own version of the affair, because duty compelled him to speak. The explanation will be accepted with varying degrees of credence. It may or it may not explain. It really doesn't matter particularly.
 It is Secretary Ballinger's letter of dismissal that is really interesting. It written it himself. The head of a de- partment usually deputes the firing" of a mere stenographer to some sub ordinate. Evidently MT. Balliuger re- gards Kerby as more important than the average man of his class in gov ernment service. He dignifies him by writing him direct and in person
 This is an unconscious but very con- vfncing proof that MT. Ballinger not only admits the truth of kerbys state ment, but realizes it's weight.
 As to the matter of the letter, one can hardly understand why an official of such rank should evince so much heat aga inst a mere underling. Dis missed for the good of the service" would cover all necessary ground Why should MT. BaIlinger write at such length? Why does he weight his mis- sive with so many severe adjectives and adverbs? Why, indeed, unless stung to the quick and jared from his equilibrium by the facts which the stenog-rapher relates?
 The Ballinger letter not only corrob- orates the essential verity of the Ker- by statement but accentuates it's inn portance. It forces one to stop and think, indeed. if the +treachery' which Ballinger charges is not really fealty to the public welfare.-Newark News.

The Arizona Spirit.

It is to be feared that in Arizona the standard of manhood-manhood that is quick on the trigger and fears nothing in human shape-is sadly de- teriorating. One is moved to this re- fiection by the newspaper reports of a train hold up near Phoenix last even ing. The train was boarded by two robbers. described as young men, ap- parently cowboys" one of whom GOV cred the passengers with his gun while the other passed through the cars and relieved the passengers of their valu- ables. According to the news spatch, "a deputy sheriff from Globe convey ing two prisoners to the penitentiary had his gun taken and all the guns of the other passen gers were taken" This is the disedifying feature. If the passengers were unarmed and defense less, their easy surrender would be com prehensfbIe, but that husky men carrying guns should give up their weapons without a nlurrnur and per init two marauders to despoi1 every man, woman and child in the cars sug- gests d lack of nerve and presence of mind which in the old days in Arizona would have been quite impossible. Now that train robbery is so easy the en- eoura cement to desperadoes is mani fest and it would be a waste of oppor- tunity not to profit by it--Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph.

The Kicking Commuter.

A commuter from Darien in this state writes to the New York Times to complain that his rate between home and New York has been raised ] brief for the railroad company and occupy the position of spectator-but of 8 spectator who pays 2 cents mile whenever he rides on the road and whose sympatnies are naturally as deep for himself as for the next fel- low.
 By the timetable it is thirty tight miles from Darien to New York, and presumably just as far from New York to Darien. Our mourning friend rides. therefore, seventy-six miles a day and does this for SIP days in a year. That he has been doing this for s114, which, as We figure It, comes to .4S, or a trife less than one-half of a cent a mile. John Jones, taking the same train at Darien and sitting next to our friend. pays 76 cents for the trip for which the con1muter has been paying IS 1-4 cents and for which hereafter he is condemned to pay about 21 3-4 cents. John Smith, going to New York from Hartford, pays 76 cents for going over that part of the line at cents mile which the commuter covers for about six-tenths of a cent a mile.
 The commuter is the sharpest critic of the railroad ana ''cusses" it from habit What is the opinion of the oc- casiona1 traveller toward the unhappy but privilged commuter? Why should all the cussing be allowed to the com muter and why should the road get all of what there is It strikes us a pretty strong case can be made for the non- conlmuter as compared with his priv iIeged seat-mate. Will he cuss the road because it is orporated-Hartford COurant.

Will Senator BulkeIey Gracefully Step
 Down and Out?

To the Editor of The Ansonia Sentinel: {:
 Morgan G. Bulkeley since he came out of the army at the close of the rebellion. has been a patriotic citizen, never failing to do what he thought was for the interests of his country and his state. The erroneous assertion Is made that he promised to make George P. Mclean senator and step out for the purpose.
 This the senator emphatically de- nies, and when we consider that MT. McLean's canvass is under the same management as that of F.. J. Hill against Senator Brandegee, we realize that, before the vote is taken, Senator Bulkeley will be up against as many statements calculated to injure him as the ingenuity of any unscrupuleous politician can devise. Why should he step down and out in favor of MT. Mclean? Those who have known that gentlemen best and longest knew him when the firm of Sperry, Mclean & Brainerd was said to have more inf1u- ence with the general assembly of Connecticut than any or all other com binations-
 It was generally understood that Spreey furnished the brains. Mclean the oratory, while Brainerd did the rest
 When MT. Mclean was brought for Connecticut ever saw to beat Don Warner he was not rich and it was reported that Bulkeley backed him, and now that he is rich, forsooth the man that helped him to be governor must help him to be senator by gracefully stepping down and out. If airy one can remember when Morgan G. Bulkeley has ever stepped down and out at the demand of MT Me- Leans manager he might make him. self conspicuous by standing up until he can be counted.

FLOWED UP RELICS.
Bethel Man Found Collection in His
 Orchard.

While W. IF. Norris was blowing in his orchard in Plumtree district. Beth- el, his blow struck some obstruc- tion. Investigation showed that he had run the blow into a mass of metal. He continued to unearth the objects, which when the dirt was cleaned from them, proved to be of carried kinds.
 There were bayonets, parts of saddles, parts of harness, powder f1asks of zinc and copper, and andirons.
 The powder fasl1s were in the best condition of any of the articles found and when cleaned and po- 1hed looked as good as new.
 There is considerable speculation in regard to how the articles came to be buried in this spot, which according to been plowed to his knowledge.
 Various theories to account for the buried articles are advanced, one of them. and probably the most reason able is that they were buried by colon fists soldiers during the Revolution ary war.
 This theory gets color from the fact that it was over this route that the British soldiers came from Westport when on their way through this part of the state and when Danbury was burned.
 It is not improbable that the colonists hearing of the approach buried these articles and never went after them.

The following case is but one of many similar occurring daily in Nor wich. It is an easy matter to verify it's correctness. Surely you cannot ask for better proof than such conclusive evidence.
 Mrs. Margaret Cox, 1s1 West Main Street, Norwich, Conn, soys: My son procured Doan's Kidney Pills for me from N. D. Sevin & Sons drug store and their use proved of great benefit. I had been miserable for some time from disordered kidneys. Morn ings when I arose my back was so painful that I could scarcely straighten and at times I could not do anything. Trouble with the kidney secretions also bothered me, the passages being too frequent. I was subject to dizzy spells, and more than once came near falling on this account. My face bloated and there was also a percepti- ble swelling of my feet and hands I tried various medicines and doctored a great deal but nothing gave me any I began using Doan's Kidney Pills. but I had only taken a few doses before had reason to place great confidence in them. The use of one box put an end to all lameness in my back, re- storing my health and benefitting me in a general way. It gave me pleas ure to tell other persons of the cura- tive powers of Deans Kidney Pills"

from the head of the comet. The tail as seen passed between the consteiia- ton of Pegasus and Pisces, just above the equator. As will be observed, the head of the comet on the 18th was about 10 degrees north of Pegasi Algenib. The tail moves diagonaily across the constellation Pisces and eX- tends to a position northeast of F'o
