LINCOLN S. RISLEY.

Lincoln s. Risley was one of New Britain's best known men. While he was not a public man in the sense that he was connected with the city government, his business brought him into such close contact with the au- thorities that he came to be regarded as public character.
 He had served in the council some years ago, acquired much information concerning the business affairs of the city and was one of it's we'll informed men. He knew the electric lighting work thoroughly. was courteous to those who met him and among his intimate friends he was, most pleas ant companion. There are many who will keep him in kindly remembrance for a long time to come.

TO TEACH POLITICS.

The republican state central com nittee of Indiana proposes to open a school for the education of 5000 pre- cinct men in the noble trade of pol itics. The course will embrace or ganization, how to tell democrat from republican and what to do when suddenly confronted with a pro- gressive. Only a small number of men in Indiana know politics as 1t is now played and in order to pre- vent the further encroachment of the enemy the faithful are to be taught what to do and how to do 1t.
 Indiana has some people very com potent to assume charge of this work. There is Vice-President Marshall, Senator Kern and ex-Senator Bever- idge. It is not an uncommon prac- tice to seek educators from another state and if the Hoosiers should de- eide to seek outside help they might step across the border and enlist the aid of Uncle Joe' Cannon or MT. Lorimer. neither of whom is working at. present. These gentlemen are thoroughly posted on the weaknesses of the Indiana republicans.

 That's not my question:" said Mr. Wilson, "I want to know whether your part of the country Is becoming ss better place to live in ?'' We do not youch for the truth of the story, put it emphasizes an undoubted change in American ideals against Wnlch there are but few protestants. There is a growing belief that great tor- tunes are a nuisance to those Who have them and menace to those who haven't; that it would be much bet ter for every one if such fortunes didn't exist; that the ambition to be enormously rich is an unworthy one, and that honorable purpose, intelli- gence and ambition can better em- ploy itself than in the pursuit or money, or at least more money than is required~ for simple comfort.

In the west and south it is undoubtedly becoming more popular. In the east, where the great spenders of the nation have To- calized themselves, the power of wealth and the glamor of extrava- gance is still potent to affect the imagination and arouse the envy of the poor. Perhaps this is one rea- son why the complaint of hard times is loudest in New York.

High School Boys in Shops.

Real industrial training that pre- pares for real jobs is described in 8 bulletin on the cooperative plan at Fitchburg, Mass, issued by the United States bureau of education. Boys in the Fitchburg high school. who attend alternate weeks in school and shop, are made to feel that their vocational training is serious business. Here are some of the directions given to each "co-op" student when he starts as all apprentices:
 Rem mem Der that the object of work is production. Your foreman meas ures you by the quantity and quality of your work. Social position does not enter. In the shop you are not a high school boy, you are an appren- tice. Wear clothes accordingly. If you get the mistaken idea that any work given you is beneath the dig nifty of a high school boy, just remem- per cent busy.
 '' It is your business to get along smoothly with the workmen and foreman; and theirs to get along with you. e.
 ''Do not expect any personal atten- tion from the superintendent. He will probably ignore you entirely, but he knows whether or not you are making good, and most cases, his idea of you depends upon your ability to please your foreman. Don't be a kicker and don't continually bother your fore man for higher wages.
 Never try to conceal defective work. Take your full measure Of blame, and do not make the same mis- take twice.
 Watch, in a quiet way, what things are being done around you, and don't be afraid to ask sensible questions. A good rule is to think over a question twice before asking. A reputation for having horse sense' means that you are making good.
 "Foremen and workmen will take pleasure in showing you, if you show yourself genuinely appreciative of llt- tie attentions. If they tell you some thing you already know, don't spoll their pleasure by telling them you al ready know it, but let it be impressed on your mind all the deeper; for the conversation may lead to sometnlns which is entirely new to you.
 '"The fool act of one coop hurts every coop. See that your actions Tn and out of the shop do not bring dis credit on the coop course.
 Representatives of the United States Bureau of Education and others who have observed the work say that the spirit of these directions is car ried out everywhere in the Fitchburg plan. Vocational training of the Fitchburg type is an opportunity Tor worthwhile work, not an easy way of lodging the grind of academic studies

Pensions Failing Off.
(Boston Herald.


 For many years the federal expen- ditures for pensions has been steadily growing, in spite of the deaths of the veterans of a war of half a century ago. Pessimistic observers had begun to doubt if that shrinkage would not always be offset by the increasing liberality with which the survivors were treated. But a turn of the tide has now come. This years pensions appropriation bill, standing at $169, 15O, ,OOO, represents a decline of nearly S6.O0O,OOO from that of last year. This is accounted for by the death of 57,459 veterans.
 But unless public sentiment is watchful, and the president resolute in his control of the situation, new devices will be found for again swell ing the total. This very recession may serve as stimulus to the inventors of new schemes. In particular, the claims of the Spanish war veterans are rapidly coming to the front. The house has just passed a, bill which pensions their widows and children, re gardless of whether the Widowhood or dependence be due to the military service of the husband or father. This bill would apply to the Spanish war veterans the same principle that was adopted in reference to civil war veterans by the act of 1890. Our existing law pensions Spanish war veterans in cases where dependency grows out of the disabilities incurred in the service. That had been the theory of the civil war pensions up to the Harrison administration.
