A meeting of teachers of the Center school district was held iu the High school yesterday for the purpose of con sidering the advisability of holding monthly educational conferences. Dr W. F. Hinckley acted as chairman and Miss Minnie O'Connor secretary. It was voted that monthly meetings of the teachers be held, and that the public, so far as space will permit, be invited. Principal Gulliver moved that the meet ings be held on Fridays from 4 to 5 p. m. Principal Madigau of the Bishop street school thought that the board of education might grant them some por tion of Fridaj' afternoon once a month in which to hold the meeting. After school hours teachers are tired and would not take the same interest in the discus sions as they would at an earlier hour. No action was taken. A committee on organization was appointed, consisting of II. S. Gulliver, principal of the High school; James E. Madigan, principal of the Bishop street school; B. II. Fitzpat rick, principal of the Clay street school ; Thomas F. Devine, principal of the Bank street school, and Caleb II. Bill, teacher of music in the public schools. Arthur B. Morrill, principal of the State Normal school at New llaten will be invited to deliver the iirst lecture on Friday, December 13. It was decided not to ask any fluancial aid of the district and to instruct the committee on organization to wait on the board of education in regard to the possibility of having a part of some Friday afternoon usually devoted to, school duties in which to hold the con ftTvnce. Morton on a Third Term. St. Loiris, Nov. 23. Hon. J. Sterling Morton, secretary of agriculture, in an interview, said: "Why should President Cleveland be opposed to a third term any more than a bank president. This Is not stating that President Cleveland is a can didate for a third term, for as to that no one knows but himself. The talk of a third term has been confined only to news papers, and there is no one who can say he ever heard Mr. Cleveland give an ex pression on the subject." The Cass Trouble Ended. Norwich Depot, N. Y., Nov. 23. The contest between Rev. T. G. Cass and the trustees of the Baptist church, which has been going on since last May, and which has involved numerous injunctions and counter injunctions, has been settlod.

Some one once told tho clergymen of all denominations have -i keener sense of humor and can rmre ciate a ood joke better than any other class of people. Two instances which came to the notice of the writer within the past few da vs give weight to this statement. On the occasion of tha funeral of Father Duggan a vUitin? priest hung his hat on a gas jet in th hallway leading to the vestrv, and stuck a Muaii piece or paper with his nam written on it, in the band. Turning tn one of his brother priests, he remarked: "If anyone should walk away with that he cannot say it was done by mistake. 'You need not worry about it," saii the priest to whom the remark was ad dressed. "If anvone should tstA it. it. will be out of Dure cussednesa. fnr T don't believe there is another like it i town. ' And he wa3 rirht. for it . & sotry-looking affair. The other incident occurred at the afternoon session of th annual conference of the Congregational churches, in the Second church last "eunesoay, when a tall, handsom young man created quite a ripple of es citement. A littlo gnirifod Hi had been going on, when the delegate arose and said in a voice filled with emo tion : "Mr. Chairman, with your per mission I would like to make a state ment to this conference." "Flease com iorwam," said Chairman Gross, who, bj the way, is an ideal presiding office. ithout moving from his seat "the mao w ho had created the sensation contin ued: "I should like to ask that tb brother who removed my hat from the. hallway by mistake and left this instead (holding up a delapidated looking old f elA hat) return it to me, so that I mar leav onthe 3 :25 trr.in. This thing is of no uf tome." The speech was greeted with an outburst of laughter, iu which th gravest churchmen in the audience joined. V nil the approach of the close of the year 1895, and the consequent death of the present court of common council, comes a supreme effort on the part of the friends of Lucieii F. Burpee to seoure his re-election as city attorney. Some of the members appear to be weakening In the light for a democratic candidate fcr that positiou, and among other reasons for their attitude thev cite the action of the district committee, of which a ma jority are democrats, and yet Mr Burpee has beeu retained as its attorney on all occasions of any importance. It i3 a big fight and a great etlort is being made to settle it this year. 3Iayor Kilduff is said to be after the week-kneed democrats with a sharp stick, and he has been for the past half year, for that matter. Some of the democrats favor electing Mr Burpee, because thev believe he is more competent than the candidates suggested by the republicans of the in- coming bcar.l of aldermen. They can make a good argument on this point, too. But Mayor Kilduff declares that it would be a grave mistake for the demo crats to interfere in the republican tight and it is hardly probable that they w ill do so. Old John Costello is a tourist printer aud makes do bones about it. Indeed, he seem? rather proud of the fact that he is the father of them all. For twenty live years he has been going the rounds and is known from Maine to Mexico. The old man rolled into town the other dav aud immediately reported at the Demo crat ofiice. For a dozen years he has uever failed to call .at le'ast once in twelve months, always the same jolly spirit, but showing more and more the ravages of time and hard usage with succeeding trip. Ask John where he lives and with a wave of the hand he will teil you that he is a rolling stone ;that for quarter of a century he has buffetted the world with no place he could Call home. Forty-live years ago the old man was a school boy in Waterbury. Afterward he learned the printers' trade, and then came the nation's call. John dropped his stick aud rule and went to the front. Afterwards he worked at his trade ia the west, but in the dark days of the early seventies he took to the road and has been an aimless wanderer ever since. His experience would fill a book. The old man was a few weeks later than usual in coming to Waterbury on his his last trip, lie was arrested In Xew Britain for being drunk on Sunday. The j adge would have released him if he would tell where he oktaiued his liquor, but he indignantly reiused and was sent to jail on the double charge drunken ness and contempt of court. After be released he went to Merlden, where he spent a day or two, and then tramped over the mountains to this city. lie left here for Ansonia. His steps "are getting slow and uncertain, his face is growing more haggard, the rheumatism is add ing to his misery and everything in dicates that old John's journey is almost done. . Yesterday mornin a well known business man was standing on East Main street", dressed iu his best bnnday clothes. A reporter thinking he was about to start on a vacation enaged the man in conver sation for a few moments and finally asked if he was off on a trip. "Xo" he said, "this is the first time I've been - p town in a few days. I have pans iu every bone in my body and unless a change for the better soon comes I don't know what's going to happen me. I had a two fold mission in coming out to day. I want to buy a pair of trousers, but before making the pui chase I thought I had better call and seethe doctor, for if these pains continue much longer the trousers I have w ill do me as long as I live. When a man is not feel ing well every little thing worries him. When I was on my way upDwn, an un dertaker w ho has not spoken to me twice in ten years stopped me aud wanted to know if anything was the matter. Now perhaps that man meant well enough, but the thing completely broke me up and as soon as I see the doctor aud hear w hat he has to say I'll go home and wait a while longer before buying the clothes." Killed by a Train. Est Okasgs, N. J., Nor. 23. Maggie Murphy, 33 years old, a domestic, wai killed on the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad here.
