COLONY HAD ITS DARK DAYS
Prosperous Sierra Leone Gave Little
Promise Of Being Success When
It Was Started.

The first settlement In Sierra Leone.
the prosperous British colony on the
west coast of Africa, was made In
1856. At that period London swarmed
with free negroes living In poverty
and on the verge Of starvation, and DR..
Smeathman's scheme for sending them
to Africa to found colony was 40.
cepted as the best solution Of the diff;
Guilty. The first shipload of colonists
consisted Of 400 negroes and sixty
whites, the latter principally women
of bad character. Although land for the
colony had been purchased from the
native king. the Africans were hot
friendly, and hostile attack, together
with the shiftlessness Of the colonists,
almost brought the venture to ruin.
In 1871 the survivors were removed to
a new settlement, and In 1893 the pop.
ulation of the colony was increased by
the introduction of 1900 negroes from
Nova Scotia and the Bahamas. In
1894 the settlement was again trans
ferred to Freetown, now the capital Of
the colony and the greatest seaport
on the west coast of Africa. In the
early days the government Of the idle
blacks was no sinecure, and Sydney
Smith remarked, not without truth,
that Sierra Leone always had two
governors-one Just arriving and the
other Just leaving. The soil Of Sierra
Leone is exceedingly fertile. but few
white men are able to live there.

 In the case of the New Haven Rail road Co., vs. Louis Celia, it is sought to have an $500 verdict set aside.

 Mrs. Wheeler made a plea for in- structton in hygiene, believing this to be at least as important as teaching of agriculture.
 She also believed that country schools are more unsanitary than city schools, with poorer ventilation, i'm perfect heating, bad lighting systems without suitable playground. She be- heves the hours are too long. especial ly for the younger children.
 Suggestions were given towards inn proving the dietary of children, avoid ing an excess of sweets and pastry Avoid fried foods and in1igestible com binations. Aim to provide menus that while attractive in flavor and change of variety from day to day will be nourishing and substantial but at the same time simple in character.

 He was followed by Henry Dor rance who has been made famous fol his skill and keen judgment in fight ing the federal government in the re- cent milk cases, where the farmers won in every case, with the result that the government withdrew tht balance Of untried cases.

 ty was the subject of two papers read by Miss Eliza w. Avery and Miss Sarah L. Tyler. The former told of the Pequot Indians, once the most powerful tribe in Connecticut and now represented by two remnants of the tribe living in Ledyard and North Stonington and also of the Mantle Indians, formerly located in the town of East Lyme
 Miss Tyler gave picture of the Mohegan Indians, their mode of life in early days and their several chiefs and wars with other tribes. The Indian problem as whole was viewed from the standpoint of the commissioner for Indian affairs, who spoke in his report of the need of more educational facilities and of the restriction of the liquor traffic.
