out to a citizen of another town who

that the complaint comes from an in

Early CHOSEN as colonial settle
nent, afterwards a state capital. to
which Long Island and other islands
sttof1led, New Haven, the county town,
has developed with the advantages of
coast and ocean navigation, quite
gradually and harmoniously along the
lines of commerce, trade, manufac
lures and agriculture; with such re-
gard to intellectual and social culture
as to ensure conditions for the SUI
preme happiness of life at home.
AS the compact seat of a university
it resembles Oxford considerably:
Cambridge, England, somewhat; and
though its neighborhood and immedi-
ate Surroundings are far from being
perfectly improved, its natural situa-
ton is unsurpassed by neither of these
foreign educational resorts, and pos
sibly eaualled by practical, scholarly
Boston and cosmopolitan New York
New Haven, through Yale boasts
too, of permanently residential body
of university people, Instructors and
ordinary graduates with their associ-
ated interests. numbering thousands,
who become homogeneous with town
people, quite cooperative. and devote
no little skill and salaried occupation
in inviting and inducing important
fractions of the scattered alumni, and
other factors of the ambitious, aspir-
ing or wealthy public to contribute,
Sratuitously, annually, directly or in
directly, to their upbuilding and sup
port.

While attractive, prosperousS intel
lsent cities, such as Boston. Washing
ton, New Haven and Hartford, come
somewhat under the same category,
their fate is differently ordered, being
less affected by like causes. New Ha-
ven and Hartford, for instance while
almost provincial towns, their con-
seryative local and state governments,
the peculiar privileges each formerly
had and Hartford now enjoys as a
capital, prove a healthy restraint on
foreign elements: for the better immi-
grants come hither, expressly to share
the benefits of American institutions.
Hartford retains the exceptional adj
vantages of receiving much money
contributed by residents of all the
counties, through diversified trade and
enlarged intercourse, and of getting
liberal state appropriations. 1t also
happens that its lively interests IN
universally important manufactures,
its being a depot for the neighborhood
tobacco crop, and a keen center of in
telligence. capital and experience or
ganized in insurance and financial
companies, affords unusual opportun1-
ties and constitutes some facilities for
acquiring from the outside world, adj
vantages, privileges and profitable ac-
counts which enrich city much at
the expense of other people.
The last weighty consideration
operates similarly, though in different
forms, manner and degree in New Ha-
Ven. The peculiar advantages the in
habitants Of that choice old city en-
JOY, arise from its genial general sit
uation, being both a fine seaport and
county town. with good back country,
also a railroad terminus, center and
way station; secondly. from it's being
the ancient seat of a college, endowed
and long supported by intelligent col
l. VI
stitution has become a university,
financially so connected, that while it
self is exempt from certain pecuniary
obligations to its own city and state,
on the other hand it attracts there
chiefly from various outside regions
several thousand students who reside,
constantly, for long terms of years.
and also draw, during each year, hun
dreds OF thousands prosperous, tran
silent visitors from all over the world,
who are of no direct expense to the
city but. on the contrary, combine to
pour into the community streams of
coin. cash. currency and credit, and
supply funds, information, courage
and confidence to New Haven without
Withdrawing from it one dollar. The
only compensation such temporary
residents ard interested visitors re
ceive is invisible and imponderable.
Besides, these, long residents, Gus
toners, consumers and contributors,
with their thousands of associate, oc-
casional visitors, after constantly add
ing to New Haven's physical prosper
ity ard material wealth, quite sener-
ally IN due time, graduate and depart,
to start up and create throughout the
states, another crop of students in
tending residence, and multitudes of
occasional visitors, similarly disposed
either to add friends to the university
or pour cash into the towns Golfers
and the channels of trade.

STATE FAIR.
Promise For the Greatest
Show Ever Given
Here.

| A glance at the programme will
convince the most skeptical that the
purely amusement feature of the
coming Kentucky State Fair has not
been overlooked by the management.
During each night of the week in the
magnificent live stock pavilion will
be given free of charge a high class
horse show, such an one as is seen
at Madison Square Garden, New
York, some features of which will
be the four musical elephants, a
stunt" which will delight the young
and the old, and the famous
! Lunette Sisters, in their mystifying
and enhancing performance as be-
wildering dancers. Each afternoon
in front of the grandstand will be
presented the justly famed loop
the loop" and Jump the gap" act
actually loops the loop and then
jumps a dangerous gap in his ely
ing machine" Each night in front
OF the grandstand the wonderfully
beautiful spectacle, "Perry's Victory
on Lake Erie" which will appeal to
the patriotism of the on-lookers as
well as their appreciation of the art
OF fireworks kings, will be given.
On Saturday afternoon a head-on
collision between two monster loco
motives, each weighing forty tons,
will be provided. The two engines
will be started under full heads of
steam and permitted to crash to-
gether in full view of the audience.
And ''the Pike" will as usual be
bewildering array of lights, music,
fun and frolic. The most up-to-date
shows possible to secure will be pro-
vided, but the management has in
sisted that they should be moral and
OF a character to which no one
could object. In addition Calliendo's
great Italian band, with tire vocal
lists of international reputation, will
furnish music OF a character which
will satisfy the most exacting. Then
there will be twenty trotting, pacing
and running races on the half-mile
track. All OF this should provide
sufficient entertainment In the
lighter vein to please any Kentucky
audience, dor which none is too
good.
