Close of Regency ip Spain to Be | | Marked by Written Accounts by Members of Ministry. The close of the regency in Spain will be commemorated by a unique literary work, written by former members of the ministry and prom- iment public men. Senor Moret, min- ister of the interior, and Carmen Syl- va will deal with the personality of the queen regent, says the London correspondent « | the New York Trib- une. Senor Silvela will discuss the relations of political parties, and Pi Y. Magill, republicanism. Senor Vil- laverde will take up finance, Ad- miral Cervera, the navy; Lopez Dom- inguez, the army; the duke of Tet- uan, international relations; Senor Gamazo, judicatur reform, and San- chez Toca, commerce. The most in- teresting chapter for Americans will be the colonial disaster, from the pen of Senor Maura, late minister to the colonies. Socialism will be jointly discussed by Prof, Agacarate, of the University of Madrid, and Pablo Ig- lesiag,-a labor leader, well known in England; and clericalism, by Senor Pidal, Spanish ambassador to the vatican; and Senor Canalojas, leader of the anti-clericals. The merchant marine will be considered by Mar- quis Camillas, and education, agri- culture, industry, art, letters and Africa have been assigned to minis- ters who are well known Spanish writers, This literary enterprise, which will be carried out with the cooperation of the leading men of all parties, is a notable sign of intel- lectual revival. The historic peninsula of Spain, in- stead of being ruined by the loss of her colonies by the war with the United States, has been benefited by her deliverance from ruinous -eco- nomic conditions, says the corre- spondent. The close of the regency and the opening of the new reign may mark the beginning of an era of progress and prosperity, INDUSTRIES OF CONNECTICUT. Census Bureau Statistics Give Very Interesting Array of Facts, The census office has issued a state- ment giving the status of the manufac- necticut for the census year of 190¢ and making comparisons extending back to 1850, The table shows a steady growth for all of those years. For last year the figures are as follows: Cap- ital employed, $314,696,736; salaried officials, 9,981; salaries, $12,286,050; average number wage-earners, 176,694; total wages, $82,787,725; miscellaneous expenses, $23,089,806; cost of materials used, $185,641,219; value of products, $352,824,106. In 1850 the wage-earners numbered 50,731, the figures given for the last census therefore showing an increase of 4,248 per cent. for the half century, The greatest number of wage-earners engaged in manufactures at any one time during the year was 212,865, or over 23 per cent. of the entire popula- tion. The statement also shows that over 92 per cent. of the entire-manu- facturing product for the state in 1890 was produced in 61 cities and towns. It is stated that the capital invested for the entire state represents the value of land, buildings, machinery, TO AID THE MARINER FOR CHURCH REFORM New Equipments to Be Placed in | British Congregationalists Agitate Lighthouses for Test. for New Architecture.

Considerable curiosity exists among speculators as to whether a complete 4 North Main Street, set of coins containing the king’s head will be issued during the coming year. in the coronation year of her late majestysome Victorian coins were is- aued, but not a complete set. What is gow known as the Victorian set, how- ever, was not struck until 1839, and consisted of a five-pound piece, a sov- ereign and a half sovereign in gold.and a crown, with a crowned head, called a Gothic crown; a half crown, a shil- ling. a six-penny piece, a four-penny piece, a three-penny piece, a two-penny piece and a penny, in silver. A limited number was issued to certain col- lectors, with unmilled edges, these being called proofs. This course was also followed in the jubilee issue, and will very probably be adopted for the forthcoming coins. These proofs are much esteemed by collectors and in- variably fetch very high prices. Woman Fasts Thirty Days. Induced Girl to Steal $1,200. Kansas City, Mo., Dee. 6.—Crimi- nal Judge Wofford this morning sen- tenced Walter Cavanaugh to serve five years in the penitentiary forcom- plicity in a theft. ; Cavanaagh had read in the news- papers that his sweetheart’e mother had a back pension amounting to $1,240. On the stand this morning the girl, Daisy Wheeler, testified that Cavanaugh ordered her to steal the money or he would beat her. He | 7e@rs. promised to marry her and establish a home with the proceeds of the pressed a regret when a further ex- aminatian revealed a bill for $1,000. Then tne pair eloped to Chicago. There, to complete his rascality, Cavanaugh told a story about being “robbed,” and urged the girl to re- turn home and make her peace with her mother. Judge Wofford admitted from the bench the girl had stolen the money, but. sentenced her to the Reform ive| ican ladies ;] and wholly unsuited to the English cli- formed that the money was left to her and a similar amount toa brother, who had been missing for several years. She was told also that it would be nec- essary to prove definitely what had become of her brother before the es- tate could be settled up finally. Mrs, Koster wrote to friends in all parts of the world, asking about her brother. He was located in Hamilton, Ont. The brother and sister have arranged with Councilor E, J. Wicheld, of Hoboken, to go to England next month to com- plete arrangements for having the fortune transferred to them. PERIL IN YANKEE SHOES. W. H. Pench, British Shoemaker, De- clares American Footwear a Menace to Life. W. H. Peach, head of the Peach com- pany, limited, bootmakers, has begun the opposition to American footwear in England. He opens the campaign with a proclamatipn to the effect that American ghoes are dangerous to life. “If the demand for Yankee boots continues,” says Mr. Peach, “there will be many Vacant chairs at the fire- sides of England before next spring.

The woeful multiplicity of religious fads and “madame” to all women alike, even ‘to infants of the female sex, just as “monsieur” is now used in addressing sectlets—mushrooms of a night anda day—abundantly proves this. Many good but ill-formed or lop-sided peo- ple are putting an immense fund of re- ligious energy into organizations mis- takenly called churches. “Explain as we may, the modern church is a good deal of a misfit, and only the blind or ignorant or unsym- pathetic refuse to see.” Ties Team to Freight Car, George Rhody, a well-known farm- er, drove to the railroad station at Rochester, N.

While absent a switch engine coupled on to the empty freight cars find with the team in tow started down the main track, the horses at 8 gallop.

The Suffrage society has issued a proclamation to this effect callingupon ;all true believers to eschew the use (of the diminutive title and to use only “madame” when speaking of or to per- sons of the feminine gender. Mme. Auclert, president of the so- ciety, calls attention to the habit of Mlle, Clemence Royer, Darwin’s trans- lator, of refusing to open all letters addressed with the diminutive prefix to her name, Unmarried and married men, she says, are alike called “mon- sieur,” and there is no reason why any stigma of inferiority should attach to the name of woman.
