As a demonstration of the enthus- jasm, solidity and interest of the Tre- publicans of the state the Bridgeport gathering is especially significant. That assembly of three thousand dis pels any dea of disinterestedness and discloses the vigor with which the fall campaign is going to be pushed. Nothing more suspiclous as an open- ing gun for the state and congression- al elections could have taken place for the display of the unity of feeling throughout the state. It was the meet- ing which fixed the dates for the state convention, and the call therefor which has been issued, directing the selection of delegates to gather at New Haven, September 9 and 10, has put in motion the necessary prelim- inaries for the caucuses and district conventions, to be held August 31 and September 4, respectively. These are matters of importance for every town, for upon the selection of delegates Tests to a large degres the choice of candidates for the state and congressional offices.

There may be who do not know what roque others may have forgotten, but fthe scientific game of croquet upon level, sanded, cement- ‘e courts, and Norwich is proud €0 welcome for the third week in Au- gust the representatives of clubs, and ‘other enthusiasts from many points in the country. 1t would be an excellent thing if the city had more gatherings of a similar character each year which would bring to it such welcome guests, but wight should not be lost of the fact that 1t is well to appreciate and take xare of what it already has. For over ‘thres decades the exponents of this interesting and skillful game have been attracted by this delightful lo- cdlity and favored it with their pres- efice and the considerable amount of advertising which necessarily accom- panles the national gathering. It is but proper that the citizens should co- operate with this spirit of loyalty to the eity, and lend their influence to the making of a greater feature of the week of roque. Not only the tournament, but the game is deserv- ing of the very encouragement that such a step.could be expected to give and in such a growth of interest and participation Norwich like any live feity should be payticularly concerned. dit §s therefore well not only to give ithe roquists the glad hand of welcome %ut the support of an alert and ap- preciative city. Roque week can stand much development for the mutual ‘enefit of the national association and ithe city. —_— It may seem strange for Japan to be fighting for Russia, but it woyld Dbe stranger to see Russia fighting for Japan. Anyone interested in such a hobbdy as making a collection of ultimatums, is being furnished some excellent spec= imens this summer. —_— e It is a marked contrast which is presented by the tempest in Europe and the enactment of eighteen peace treaties by this country.

The late Mme Nordica by leaving an estate valued at ov: million shows what results from singing one's way into the hearts and pocketbooks of the people. We know too well what American money has done towards keeping up the revolutions in Mexico and it is well that it should not be tried on Europe. This country sold Greece two wars ships and kept them from the junk heap and such seems to be the pur- pose of Germany in its sale of two vessels to Turke: That Ohio woman Wwho has Jeft near- 1y & half a million to establish & home for aged school teachers should have attempted that difficult task of fix- ing the age at which such public ser- vants become oid. JAPAN’S ULTIMATUM, “The entrance of Japan into the Eu- Fopean fight has long been portended however much it had been hoped that that part of the world could be kept freo from the ravages of war at this tite. Japan in accordance with treaty provisions goes to the aid of Great iBritain as the latter has been drawn into the conmflict through its obliga- tion to maintain the neutrality of Helgium. The empire of the mikado in the ultimatum sent to Germany declares for the maintenance of peace- 2ul conditions in the east and against any intent at territorial aggrandize- ment, but what the result may be When it comes to making peace again is another question. Few of the biz pations rush into war of aggression without having their eve on some, plum as a recompense. ‘Whether the situation is such as to demand the action by Japan as is dis- closed in the ultimatum may be looked upon difterently, but it is evident that Japan considers it sufficient, and it proposes to take advantage of the troubie and the treaty provisions to miake the most of its opportunity, The plan is apparently to replace German interests in the far east by Japanese #hd it seems to be in a position to tarry out its purpose, whether Ger- miany agrees to the ultimatum or not. Fapan sees a chance to decrease Eu- ropean control in the east and to bulld up her own influence. It is pos- #ibls for it to render a great service to China but it remains to be seen Whether this will result or not.. Japan's It is the housewife, who is engaged in canning operations, who is partica- larly interested in the high price of sugar. Something always tums up at this season of the year to incgease the cost of this cofamodity. ‘We were informed by Austria only a few weeks ago that Servia needed a reformation, but it is a deplorable fact that the Belsians must such harsh treatment because Germany wishes to strike at a mm&:a part of France. There seems to be little need of warning Americans not to go into the war zone in Europe. The great ma- jority of them would show greater appreciation of an equal amount of interest in helping them away from the continent. —_—— If Paul M.

The ecclesi- astical trial took place before the great Sanhedrin, consigting of seventy- one members. The Roman or_civil sl wap held betors Funtie Pilate Romman governor lea, Herod, Tetrarch of Galilee. These trials took place within a space of from ten to twenty hours. The arrest of Jesus took place fol- lowing the Iast supper as He was leaving, with his disciples, the house of Mark on-the outskirts of Jerusatem, to go to the Garden of Gethsemane. This was about midnight on the eve- ning of April 6, A. D. 30. He was taken into custody by the band of temple officers Roman soldiers, guided by Judas. He wus first taken to Annas and afterward sent to Cala- phas, the former being the father-in law of the latter. A private prelim- Inary examination of Jesus was then had before one of these church dig- nitarfes. Saint John describes this examination, but does not tell us clear- Iy whether it was Annas or Ceisphas Wwho_conducted it. After the preliminary examination Jesus was arraigned about 2 o'clock in the morning before the Sanhedrin, and was tried and condemned to death on the charge of Dblasphemy against Jehovah. After a temporary adjournment of ths first session the Sanbedrin reassembled at the break of day to retry Jesus and to determiné how He should be brought before te. SAUCE FOR THE GANDER.

A brief trial of Jesus by Pilate on the charge of high tréason against Cassar was had in front of and within the palace of Herod. The result was an scquittal of the prisoner by the Roman prose- cutor, who expressed his verdict in thess' words: T fihd no fault In Him.” Instead of releasing Jesus, after hav- ing found Him not gullty, Pilate, being intimidated by the rabbis, sent the priscner away to Herod, who was then in attendance upon the passover foast. aid was at tha mement, prs- siding o ancient palace of the capital of the Asmoneans in. the im- mediate neighborhood of the residence of Pllate. A brief, informal heering was had before Herod, who, having mocked the prisoner and arrayed Him in & gorgeous robe, sent Him back to the Roman governor. After the return of Jesys from the court of Pilate assembled the priésts and elders, announced to them that Herod had found no fault with the prisoner in their midst, reminded them that he himself had acquitted Him. and offered to scourge and then rélease Him. This compromise and subterfuge was scornfully rejected by the Jews, who had demanded the cru- cifixion of Jesus. Pilate, after much vacillation, finally yis to the de- mands of the mob and ordered the Pprisoner to be crucified.

When his wife returned, a week Iater, it was with a brave front but a quaking heart that she opened her own door. A moment later she cried: “Oh! Oh! I must be dreaming! John, where are you?" The kitchen roof had been mended, a kitchen cabinet such as she had long wanted stood ready for use, a linoleum had been laid on the floor, neat, well fitting screens replaced the old screen ¢loth; yes, all over the house, for it &4 not take her long to rush through it. Upstairs the papering had been done, not only in one room but in all the chambers. “John!" she called, again. Her husband was just entering the house.

She answered “I will” and sealed it with a kiss.—Boston Post.

The people could not understand finance, and would they kindly not ask questions, but deposit theic savings in the bank and look pleasant? The government would al- so kindly mind its own business and not put the soiled hand of politics up- on the holy ark of finance. The people were to put their mdney in banks. The bankers were to invest this money in securities. The people ‘were not competent to judge about se- curities. The result was that the able middlemen got the apple and the peo- ple got the core, if any. Now comes a new order of things. They are breaking the securities up into small pieces, suitable for small buyers. Bonds used to mean $1,090, now they may mean $100. The workingman with $10 savings can buy his security direct.
