St Louis on dedication day, April SO, will be the battery of mountain artillery, whose guns - are carried in four sec tions on the backs of as many Missouri mules,., ., , . s Captain Carter had better attend to his military duties, the newspaper field is no place for such as he, but if he should again try his hand it is to be hoped he will make it a 1 point not to overstep the .bounds of decency. He will receive' more consideration from the Democrat or any other first class newspaper, for that matter, if he will be decent and docile instead of being doghatical and denunciatory. The various Waterbury policemen who are' about to be investigated for al leged neglect 6f duty should proceed to get their necks Harveyized.r Hart ford Post. ',', 'v'"v Perhaps when" the investigation is finished their necks will be encircled by the same immaculate . standing col lar, and their countenances adorned with the same complacent smile. Some people want, to hammer a policeman for doing his duty, and there are others who would like to hammer-him for al leged lack of duty. Verily the lot of a policeman Is not filled with gold nug gets or oil springs. The speeches of the president on his trip and those of some of his cabinet members are attracting some attention in political circles in Washington. They are distinctly anti-tariff revision. They tell us that nothing can be ex pected of the republican party in the way of tariff revision legislation in the nex,t congress, and it is notice to the people of the country , that if they want any such thing or any relief from the burdens of tariff taxation or relief from the burdens of trust rapacity, they will have to elect a democratic .congress and a democratic administration. The kind, of talk Indulged in by the presi dent and his cabinet ministers is a dis tinct violation of all the pledges made to the people by the republican party. If that party can afford to stand pat on its violated pledges then it is up to the people. The president not only tells us that his party is not going to do anything it promised, but one can drive an ox team through his logic and his consistency. In his speech on trusts at Milwaukee, the' president said: "Not only is the legislation re cently enacted effective, but in my judgment it was impracticable to at tempt more." How does he know it is effective until it has been tried? Again, we all remember that he was demand ing much more on his stumping last f all and when his attorney general was suggesting o;; tPPsntatlve Little field what the presidenf wanted done. Littlefleld prepared that anti-trust bill and got it through the ' house, but it was pigeon-holed in the senate by; the order of the trusts and with the con sent of the president. , - It Is true that there are many actors and actresses who are possessed of dramatic genius, and whose ideals are of the noblest says a NewYork writer. But their efforts to uplift what should be one of the most honored of profes sions, a profession which, by the way, dates back to the institution of the mir acle plays by the Catholic church, are not, properly appreciated. The actors or actresses who debase -a noble pro fession by pandering to the basest ele ments in human nature often hold the middle of the stage, while histrionic merit of the first orderds relegated to the rear. This thing has gone so far in Paris that Senator Berenger has formed a hissing organization, which purposes to drive indecency from the stage ifi the same way the various Irish societies in this country have resolved to make an end of that disgrace to the theatrical profession the stage Irish man. This French senator has organized what are now known as hissing bri gades. In speaking of them in an in terview with a representative of the New York World, Senator Berenger said: "True stage censorship has be come such a mockery that I have fa vored organized hissing. No law per mitting hissing is needed. Buying a ticket gives a right to hiss.. The privi lege is undisputed. But one man's hissing starts a riot and he is ejected as disorderly. Right-minded men and wo men 'must act together. Then the po lice will not dare to interfere. There is a sort of freemasonry among authors and journalists here, and often the lat ter produce the worst plays, so no help comes from that direction. The asphalt trust has been getting it right and left. The following from the Municipal Journal and Engineer of New York being the latest: 'Another trick of the trust, resorted to in Cleve land and elsewhere, was to put In ab- snrdly low bids for brick pavement. This gives a double advantage to Mr Mack, for he will probably make a profit on the brick (he is a large paving brick manufacturer) which he will sell to the subsidiary asphalt company, in the trust, to which was awarded the the contract for laying the brick pave ment, and then, this company will probably make a poor job that is what is feared by the paving brick manufacturers thus designedly bring ing brick pavements into disrepute. Similar tactics have been tried with bitulithic pavement, but not with the success achieved in Cleveland. For the foregoing reasons, we wish to appeal I to the sense Of justice of all municipal officials. Glvo a fair price to tuo con tractor in order that he may pay a liv ing wage to his employes, and be justi fied in laying the very best pavement possible. Refuse to deal with the trust on any terms, as many, cities have already done, notably New York when-the trust offered to lay a large portion of bitulithic pavement without cost to the city the 6ter, being unani mously rejected by the board of esti mate and apportionment on the ground that the trust could not be expected to properly lay this pavement when it was looked upon as one of its strongest competitors. A concern that has de frauded its stockholders to the extent of millions, one that has lost millions by bad management, cannot be trusted to do honest work for any city, even at fair prices, much less at prices below actual cost. It will be sure to get even in some way." HABJD in passing It bas been reported that the leading statesman of England will never . ac cept a peerage, as he .wishes to. uie plain "Mr - Cnamberlain." Time will tell. The views of an Englishman on the subject of titles are somewhat like those of an American politician on the presidency. Collier's Weekly. Grover Cleveland's letter to tlje negro who recently won in the prize speaking contest at Yale has been incorrectly quoted as having been a message of congratulation. The', letter was devoid of comment. It merely asked for a copy of the oratlbn. Therefore instead of being interpreted as a means 6f cap turing the colored vote, it is merely to be taken as evidence that Grover is in search of originality. Ansonia Senti nel; . -V ;. "- ... ' i - A newspaper in Kansas tells of a newly married young lady who recent ly had her first experience in purchasr ing garden seeds. She rounded out her list with a request for ""15 cents' worth of succotash seed." The clerk was dazed for a moment, but only for a moment. The man behind the coun ter quickly made up a mixture of sweet corn, peas and beans, wrapped up the seeds and labeled the package "succotash." The clerk should -occupy a position.,, in the diplomatic service. New Haven Union. , The number of immigrants who have arrived at Ellis Island, New York har bor, since the first of April, is above 40,000. Over 10,000 of them came yes terday. They are "coming in by the thousands at Boston, also, and the total arrivals in the country ' for the present month , will, perhaps, be the heaviest ever known. In the boom year of 18S2, following" the resumption of specie payments in , 1870, the immi gration rose to an aggregate of 788.000. This year the total Is likely to be much in excess of a million.- It may go up to a million and - a half .Hartford Times. ' . ' . The friends of vaccination in the house of representatives have their work cut out for them for the rest of the session if they are to prevent the "antis" from following up their partial victory1 by a complete triumph " in the securing of the repeal of the present vaccination law. The opponents of vaccination have agitated without ceasing. They have the pausible argu ment of personal liberty violated and have worked it for all or more than it was worth. That is the explanation of their remarkable showing this week. Arrangements should be made to pre vent a repetition of the occurrence. New Britain Herald.

SMUGGLING GAME: Tricks of Sportsmen to Circumvent State Authorities. t Birds Concemle In Beer Bottle mud . Sample Baa-s of Wheat to Elude the Gaaae Wardens of the ',' , ' Dakota. - The game waroens ofl the Dakota learned a lot of new tricks last season,' but their information, will not be of much use, for next season there will be bther tricks of gunners who wish to ship game out of the two sta tes in de fiance of law. The Dakotas, like , other western srtatea, charge an outsider a good li cense f eo to use a gun within their bor ders. They limit the amount of game he may slay in a day. They set a limit ! on the amount of game he may take I across the state line with him when he ! starts home. They do not permit him I to ship a pound while he is still on the 1 ground, states the New York Sun. These laws, of course, ar designed to cripple market hunters, and such a Sentiment has been built up that they are enforced as rigidly as any blue law that Connecticut ever heard of. Men who pay big railway fares and freight for- camp equipment and often express charges on dioge and' license fees to get to a Dakota lake for the au tumn ducks, snipe and prairie chlckensi kill more than they can possibly use in camp. They want to send game back to their families and friends and they use a good many devices, to fool the wardens. ' ' ' : ' ' ' . Shipping baskets of ducks or chick ens to a friend in St. Paul, who is sup posed to run a laundry, is one of the most transparent of the devices. It is transparent for the reason that men out shooting in a camp ten miles from a railroad are not believed to have qr need boiled shirt and standing collars. When a warden finds a . big wicker basket, with the top fastened down and marked "Laundry," he pulls' out a lit tle sharp steel instrument he carries, which has a hook at its end, and jabs it into the basket. When it comes out it has a small bit Of flesh and a feather or two clinging to it. Then the basket and contents are confiscated and sold for the benefit' of the state. ' : ;f No attempt to prosecute the men who shipped, it is ever made.n The offi cers are content with confiscation. : ; A good deal Of ganie got outlast sea son was returned beer bottles. : S "3 ingenious. Chaps had their beer sent to them in cases which had false bot toms five inches deep. Two layers of chickens or ducks 1 might ! be packed tightly into these bottoms, , It was noted that a great deal of beer was drunk and ases"filled with empty bottles "wentf ,: back" -over the roads every day. The trick was finally exposed by a clumsy expressman who dropped a beer case and broke it and the birds came out' on the station plat form. After that the steel finder was jammed through the cracks of every beer case which went back to the Wis consin and Illinois breweries. Small, neatly built cases, supposed to contain samples- of Dakota minerals or soils, were used for a long time for shipping game. Every Dakotan, whether a game warden or not, is a land boomer ' by nature and it- went sorely "against the grain to suspect these boxes which on the outside were meant to bring immigrants';" in V the state and hoist the prices of 'land. For awhile this was a mos excellent .de rice, but it was betrayed -finally by a carelessly fastened lid that came off and displayed a beautiful layer of plump prairie chickens just under it. , Many boxes were sent out labeled as printed matter from big land compan ies. Birds were buried in sample bags of wheat. ;- " There was at least one instance of a coffin full of mallards- and pinnated grouse that went through. First-class fare was paid for this coffin, which was dumped on at a little out-of-the way station and rushed through by a friendly express messenger. The war dens heard of it afterward and thought it so funny that they made no effort to prosecute anybody. Every warden who boards a train and goes through the express cars has his steel finder and; often he has a setter or pointer. The dog isrset to smelling , the various cases. If they contain birds with plenty of paper be tween them and the box the dog may pass on, but the birds must be almost hermetically excluded from outside air to accomplish this. The nose of a pointer or setter is hard to fool and often they will come down hard on an innocent looking'box marked "Books' or "Minerals" or "Glass Handle with Care," or anything which express com panies usually carry.

McAndrew,' principal of the girls' high chool', in the World's Work. As for teachers in general, the rec ord is usually after this fashion: "Crates, of Mallos, was the first to teach grammar in Rome. Having had the misfortune to fall into a sewer, thus breaking hisi leg, he was thence forward considered good for nothing but to be a teacher." Horace mentions Orbillius, the most famous teacher of his1 time, only to confer on him an immortality of con tempt. . ; ' ' ' The first American schoolmasters, say the historians of education were also grave-diggers, street-sweepers, and were employed in other occupa tions similarly looked down upon. Maine, in cities of more than 8,000 in habitants, pays -teaohers $448 a year upon the average. 1 The cities of this state) pay $863 to the average teacher; the cities of Massa chusetts, $728 a year; the cities of Pennsylvania, $528. In the latter state, as a whole, women average $304.' The average (monthly) salary, for the country is $47 for men, $39 for women. . ;!' . ! . ;, ,.' ' Lewis Elkln, of Philadelphia, has jttst left a fortune whose income is to be used in pensioning worn-out teachers. In that city this work is no longer to be left to chance or lef tundone Affection Of Seala. Natural affection of seals (in their wild state) js well shown in the follow ing anecdote; A gentleman living in Oregon, On the ocean shore, one day' caught in a very simple manner a young seal. It had been, stranded on the piank wharf by a receding tide, and left high and uncomfortably dry as well. It had not strength to waddle into the water, and no one to teach it the tricks of its tribe. The gentle man kept the little glossy creature for several days, and then in pity turned It into its native element. It came to the wharf every night and whimpered so that he was obliged to take it out' again and keep it in a small tank, the seal giving every demonstration of af fection, after the manner of a young dog.- Chicago Post.
