iRA wisQ Jti viimxos. The Disagreeable Duty Not All Done at uui-e. The national bank statements, now being published, give the conditions of those institutions at tho close of business July 1st. Some banks close their business day at 1 o'clock, but, allowing for that, the statements are of interest in so far as they serve to measure the anxiety of stockholder to get their dividends. In all cases but one (the Harttord, which paid June 1st,) the banks paid dividends July 1st.

Hence what had not been drawn when the day closed goes into these statements as "dividends unpaid. 1 here is often a trining amount carried all the time under this head, but it is insignificant and not enough to affect the table below. Following is the list of the bank dividends and the amount of dividends on hand and paid out at the close of business July 1st: Bank. Dividend. Unpaid.

Mr. Robert S. Coleman a recent graduate of Trinity college, is pleasantly rememliered by many of our residents and esiiecially by the students of the college for his munificent gift of the Delta Psi chapter house, a beautiful granite building on the college grounds.

Since leaving college he has actively entered the iron business at Lebanon, and is known as the "millionaire iron master" ot that resrion. The Courant recently noted his enterprise nrxmg up a pnvare rauroau to lus works, and that he has an appreciation for the beauti ful as well as the practical is evidenced by his recent purchases in connection with the intro duction ot the electric light into Ins extensive works. Ono is an engine to run twenty lights, ana it is ueseriiieu as a marvel oi nne woi'Kuian ship. It is of cast steel iu all its parts and is polished throughout, there not being a particle ot steel that lias not undergone the iioiishi process. It presents, therefore, a brilliant appearance, and is as pretty an object to look at as can well be imagined.

The "housintrs" are worked out of solid steel, and the connecting rods, valve rods, ny wheels, are Wll of pol ished steel. The bearings are of phosphor bronze. 1 he engine nouse or the Coleman fur nace where electric light is to lie used, is the finest building of its kind in this country, and has probably no superior in the world. It is built of the finest cut stone and the inside is lined with enameled brick. The woodwork is of mahogany and canary, and the winding stairs are of the finest hard wood.

The doors and windows are of ground glass, and the floor is covered with tiling. 1 wo men are constantly employed to keep the engine room free of dust and see to it that everything shines like a mirror. The furnaces are built of cut stone with brownstone arches, not a particle of wood entering into tneir construction. MILITARY. Order for the Annual Encampment i.leutcuam toionei liai-oil lleaiu.

At noon, with a clear sky and southwest wind, the mercury marked and 01 at one o'clock. In some quarters of the city the thermometer indicated 05'. Theoretically it was not a particularly hot day, but practically it was tne warmest ot the season. Hignal Officer Sherman of New Haven, said there was nothing special about the weather it was simply seasonable, and just what might lie exiected'in July. His sheltered thermometer marked S5 degrees, thirteen degrees higher than on the corresponding day ot last year.

Travelers on the Hartford division of the Consolidated road will remember a middle aged man who passed through nearly every train distributing leaves of the Bible. His name is Coe, and he belongs in Meriden. Reports varv as to how he gains a livelihood.

One storv is'that he has means, and another is that a religious society pays him a regular sal-arv. In either event it is obvious that he does his work thoroughly. As a rule he is ti-eated with respect, but wicked wags have their jokes with him once in a while. Monday night as he passed through the smoker of an up train some one hooked to his coat tail a live crab. The condu' tor apprised him of it and gravely told him that while he had a permit to distribute tracts, he had none to distribute crabs.

The New Haven tnicm of last night says: As a matter of fact, while the railroad people believe Coe to be sincere, and that he perhaps thinks he Is doing some good Dy his peculiar methods, they vole him a great nuisance for that he is continually in the way of the conductors and brakemen on the trains, and he Is frequently co ni plained iden lumseu, A Ellis's New of caused was of stop The gerous so of a is thing. travel a more at via. has with hurt nev ly, are in his ton all in is a bered in military circles, which were divided i to wnetner ne was tne right or wrong.

An interview, yesterday afternoon, with one of the members of the executive committee of the local "Society for the Aid of Russian Refugees," revealed several interesting facts concerning these unfortunate people of the Jewish faith, who have been robbed of their property and driven from home by the brutal bigotry of Russian mobs. During February and March the local society received about two uuimrea or tnese refugees turougn me general committee of the society in New- York; but since the first of June the immigrants have come directly to Hartford, chiefly from tho Mansion House committee of Liverpool. This committee have forwarded their proteges to Hartford without a word of forewarning, and the society here has been much embarrassed in consequence of the action of their Liverpool friends. Then, too, the more recent comers have immigrated in families, frequently quite large, and with a notion that all they have to do to attain homes and wealth in this country is to apply to their American brethren. Iii Euro they were univei-sally informed that labor is unnecessary here, and" that the "United States is an A7 Dorado, flowing with milk and honey, for the acquirement of whose treasures no exertion is required.

The in-comers are generally very intelligent, however, and soon realize the real conditions of their new sur roundings. The Russian language is their mother tongue, but they all speak German tolerably well and learn English correctly and rapidlv. Among their number are students, tradesment, and skilled artisans of nearly every class watcnmaKers, optical instrument mat- el's, mechanics, tailors, as well as farmers. these Russian Jews are by no means so mus cular as the majority of European iiiiini grants, but they are strictly sober in their habits and industrious. Kobliert ot homes and possessions in Russia, they have come here, chiefly from Odessa and the neighboring eoun try, to gain fortunes and build themselves permanent habitations.

Though marked by all the essentially Jewish characteristics, they have, nevertheless, so far departed from the traditional spirit of their brethren as to look to agricultural pursuits for the winning of that prosperity which they so much desire. Naturally enough, many of them, hen first placed on New England farms, vigorously objected to working on Saturdays and eating meat not slaughtered iu accordance with Jewish rites. But their necessities coupled with the example of their American co-religionists, soon effaced all scruples, and they acquiesced iu their employers' demands. The Hartford society has placed most of its beneficiaries outside the city, in the Pone-nah mills, near Norwich, the works of the Eagle Lock company, Tariffville, and the U. 8.

Stamping company, Portland, They left tho latter works, howvsr.c;i account of thesmall wer tLere paid, but those employed in the other manufactories are said to bo giving good satisfaction. Their social relations are correct and happy. Early marriages have been frequent among them, manv of the wives in the families sent out from Liverpool being only fifteen or sixteen years of age. Husbands of twenty or twenty-one are requeutly found. i hen asked wnetner these Kussian Jews ex pect to abide permanently in this country or to return to their native land hereafter, when a different state of affairs shall prevail, the gentleman of the committee replied that they had come for good.

And that while the refugees do not hold the imperial government diiectly responsible for thoir persecution, they yet believe that it was connived at by the government authorities and have no wish to return. "Nor will they return to Palestine," continued the informant. "No Jewexpects his race to return there. Why should they go, and forsake the protection of a liberal govern ment and the sure resources of western civiliza tion for existence under the Turkish govorn- ment and the precarious subsistence ot a ruined country The Jews do not expec: to return to the Holy Land" As has been said, the Russian Jews now among us, are looking chiefly to agricultural pursuits. Recently an organization wes formed among them, consisting of twenty-five young men and called "The New- Odessa Club.

lhev have already purchased a large tract of farm land in Oregon, together with building tools and cattle, and intend departing thither ou the 20th inst. The land cost them an acre and will be worked on the co-operative plan. After payment for land, buildings, stock and tools the club will have in its treasury about $3,000 with which to liegin ope rations. Another community has settled successfully in Louisiana and is engaged in agriculture.

H. CASE, 8J3 Maih Street, Hills Block, Hartford, Conn Another volume by the aut nor of the "Old Testa ment In The Jewish Church," will be eagerly welcomed by a large circle of readers, while many. dissent from the author's opinions, will be bo eager to know what new heresies he has propounded. W. Robertson Smith, L.

L. since professorship was taken from him gives us eight lectures on The Piopfirf of Ixratl and their place In History. These lectures were delivered winter to large popular audiences In Glasgow Edinburg. and formja sequel to the course published under the title of "Old Testament In Jewish Church. They are designed by the author as a contribution to the popularization of modern Biblical science to enable the English reader to learn what modern scholarship has done the Hebrew literature and history, and to reach conclusions that commend themselves to the scien tific as well as to the religious consciousness.

This volume deals with the earliest prophetic literature, anil covers but a small part of the Old Testament field. They are singularly free from the controversial tone, although the author manifests the courage of his convictions. He speaks of the (fcinonxlratfoii that the priestly legislation did not exist before the period of Exile. He evidently accepts the leading critical conclusions of which Wellhausen is perhaps master. Indited the author openly says that the writings of Wellhausen are the most notable contribution to the historical study of the Old Testament since the great works of Ewald.

Of the eight lectures here printed, the most Interesting to the general reader are the first and second on "Israel aud Jehovah," and "Jeho vah and the Gods of the Nations," and the sixth on the "Earlier Prophecies of Isaiah." We believe these leeturcs are writteu in a rever ent spirit of rational faith, out of a thorough knowledge of the subjects, and with a supreme desire to place the Bible on a firm basis of acceptance and honor. I'erhaps the opening sentence in the book expresses as important a truth as can else where be found therein, and, at the same time, in dicates the writer's standpoint. "The Hevelation recorded In the Bible is a jewel which God has given us In a setting of human history." We com mend this book for Its learning, for Its lucidity, for its evident reverence, and for its great value In as sisting the ordinary reader to the materials of criticism which have hitherto been hidden in re mote sources. (New York: D. Appleton Sc Co.

Hartford: Brown Cross.) The Literary lfittory of Kiiylind In the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth century, by Mrs. Oliphant, In three volumes, is work of considerable magnitude in which the au thoress aims not Jo make a commentary upon each individual writer, but to give a history of the new departures, especially in poetry, and in fiction and criticisms as well, and to Indicate those which have occurred in history ami Mrs. Oliphant has demonstrated her ability as a literary historian in her well known and admirable book "The Mak ers of Florence." The present work begins with Cowpcr and ends with such names as Hallam Bcnthani, Mackintosh, and Mill. Itobert Burns, Crabbe. Wordsworth, Southey, Landor, Lamb, Scott, Campbell, Byron, Shelly, Moore, and Keats are some of the chief writers who come In for her review and analysis.

While the account she'gives of literary men seems to us very incomplete, and her history of the literature of the period reviewed is fragmentary and almost destitute of that wiiich may be called the evolutionary principle, her volumes are written in a very pleasing style and con tain a great deal that is both Instructive and en tertaining, and may lie heartily commended to the general reader.

Volume forty-two in the International Scientific series is by Sir John Luhlmck, on Ant, Htt, timl IVosps a record of observations by that most learned gentleman on the hublts of the social hy- moHoptera, with a view to test their mental conditions and powers of sense. The author states.as an evidence of the thoroughness of his experimenta tions, that lie has had an ant's nest under constant observation in his room for more than seven years, He had intended to observe bees principally, but soon found ants more convenient far calmer and less excitable. We have found the bee a very ex citable creut me, andean eordially agree with Sir John, that ants are better to experiment with.

Is an exceedingly valuable and Interesting contribution to the literature of medical and sanitary science.

In 1X37 Schwann estab lished the connection between putrefaction and microscopic life, and thirty years later Lister extended to wounds the previous researches on dead riesh and animal infusions, and thus, oy the application of the auti-scptic system, revolutionized the art of stiraery. Professor Tyndall's essays touch this whole subject. Some of them, as for instance those on "Fermentation," "Dust and Disease," and "Spontaneous Generation," have been before the public for some years. Others are new, and all are abundant in fucts and generalizations of much Importance. It need not be said that Professor Tyndall never writes a dull or heavy page.

There is a Mt. Desert episode, and the book will doubtless be voted splendid by many fair readers.

Starkweather, discusses the fascinating subject of S'rial locomotion. Mr. Starkweather Is a close observer and an independent generalizer. He feels bound to follow no accepted theory, but, on the contrary, questions all theories and knocks to pieces not a few. We confess to considering it easier to refute, others than to demonstrate any theory of tho philosophy of flight.

But certainly Mr. Starkweather advances his notions interestingly and forcibly. He goes over tho whole ar.lmal kingdom, considers the swimming of fishes, the flights of insects and of birds. from the lumbering duck to the swallow and the eagle. It is said that seventeen swallows in flight exert a whole horse-powei- of energy and that man would require fifteen thousand feet of wings, mov ing three times In each second, In order to fly.

The subject is one of the highest importance, as Mr. Starkweather says, from an economic point of view. The next great move of the world must be to navigate the air. The train of changes favoring that new departure is beyond Imagining. And the way to accomplish the art Is to study flight as it Is found in nature.

One cannot read Mr. Stark weather's book without an Increased interest in the subject, awakened alike by his own theories and his excellent synopsis of the various theories which from time to time have had their advocates. (Published by 11. W. Beadle Wash ington, D.

Colonel Blair who was murdered at Camden, 8. last eek was a United States supervisor of elections. By the republicans of the state his killing is regarded a political assassination.

General Ixigau during his whole checkered career has never done a more comical thing than his insinuation that senatorial opposition to his Hennepin canal scheme was due to rail- nad influences. Congressman Hubbell ought to feel convinced that his assessment bureau made a blunder in trying to raise some j400out of the poorly paid teachers and employes of the Indian school at Carlisle Barracks, Pa. The Hennepin canal men say they are en tirelv satisfied with the action of the senate. An order for a survey practically commits con gress to the project, and they can get an appro priation next year, i uis tor pniuication. rri- vatelv, Senator Logan, one of the foremost champions of the scheme, admits that it is dead.

The survey, he says, amounts to nothing, and he will advise the Illinois legislature, which is to pass u)on the proposed relinquishment of the state rights the Michigan canal, as a contii tion precedent to the survey, not to give its consent to the relinquishment. He thinks the legislature will not. PERSONALS. Huntington portrait of Mi's. Hayes has at last been hung on the wall of the green parlor of the executive mansion.

Coffin of Windsor Locks, a committee appointed by Judge Looniis, yesterday held a hearing in the case of Martin Luther et al. of Newington against the board of water commissioners of Hartford. This is a claim for damages for diverting a stream fur nishing part of the water supply to Mr. Luther's mill, and he claims to have been damaged to the extent of $0,000. The mill is ui the west part of Newington, near Clayton station.

The stream diverted ran through the Cadwell property and its waters were taken when the new" storage reservoir was constructed. The stream emptied, with others, into the stream by which Luther's mill is run. The defense of the water board was that the only small amount of water is diverted and that the claim for damages is excessive. F. L.

Hungcrford of New Britain appeared for Luther and Charles E. Perkins for the water Ij-iard. The plaintiff and several residents in his neighborhood were examined as witnesses during the day.

The unpleasant exposure of the attempt to Uvv oolitical assessments upon the teachers and employes of the Indian training school at Carlisle Barracks, discloses the systematic manner in which the assessments are made.

Ohio is one of the states there are about thirty seven others that feel the necessity for a revision of the tax laws uKi some basis of justice ami common sense.

To help in this work the last legislature passed a bill constituting the auditor of the state and two citizens to be appointed by the governor a commission to undertake the work. The governor had selected two excellent men for the work and great good was expected, when it was discov ered that a stutml blunder had nullified the legislation. The enrolling clerks, or the com mittee on enrolled bills, enrolled a bill which was defeated instead of the bill which was passed, and the result is that there is no law on the subject. The chronic grumblers at the weather have had few idle moments this year. The bluster ing winter, the cold and backward spring, and now the warm days of summer have all in turn been criticised and condemned.

And yet it has lieen a pretty good year, take it by and large. The winter snows fertilized the ground and protected the wheat: the spring rains rilled the streams ami the cold weather retarded vegetation until it was safely past danger from freezing; and then the genial sun came to the rescue and has given us the promise, almost of a great harvest. No weather could have been iHTirK'itliiidi1'1 this section and the yield lias been iuuaense. The early vegetables are unusually good, and the fruit crop will be very Hrge. And these delightful hot clays are making the farmers laugh while they Krspire.

Ail abundant bay crop is lieing harvested, and anyone who wants to sit up at night in the country can hear the corn, potatoes and pumpkins grow. The man who complains of such weather ought to be sent out we--t and cvcloued. THK I'KSSSYL VA SI A The republican state, committe of Pennsylvania ill meet in special session to-day, to consider the situation and to divide upon what propositions, if any, shall lie made for the purpose of uniting the party. From the tone of leading independents it is not probable that any suggestion short of a now convention and new ticket will be accepted. Senator Cameron is said to be earnestly opposed to any such move, and there has lieen nothing in the utterances of the regular leaders to indicate that it will le seriously pressed.

The independents have manifested an indisposition to accept the proposition, already unofficially made, that both tickets lie submitted to a vote of the republican primaries through the state, at wiiich all who voted for Garfield shall be entitled to take part. This would seem to lje a fair method of settling the quarrel, but the independents claim that as the regulars control the juirty machinery they would not have a fair chance at the elect io i. It mus bo admitted that the outlook is not encouraging, us the leaders ou each side exhibit distrust of their opponents, and each seems to be more desirous of gaining au advantage over tlia other than of uniting the party. The independents are more desirous of defeating t'ameronism than of electing their ticket, and the Cameronians would sooner go down in defeat than surrender to the hostile faction. It is a pity that the party should have been allowed to get into such sliiipp, but it is an inevitable result of the "IkW system of politics, ltevolt is sure to come, sooner or later, and when it comes good men are eoinoelled to suffer for the sins of others.

Under ordinary circumstances the present regular republican ticket would receive hearty support, such as it deserves Uxu the personal merit: of the candidates. Hut the determination to break Cameron's supposed grip upon' the party organization is so strong among the independent that all personal considerations as to the candidates are disregarded. Against this feeling it is imiKwsible to reason, nor does it avail to show that no state convention for years has lieon little dominated by Cameron as was the last one. The proliability is that the conference to day will result ill making overtures which will le rejected and that the triangular light will go on to the end. The so-called independents constitute a small minority of the part3-, but they can prolmbly withdraw enough votes to give the election to the demo cratn.

Mo far as this year's state election is concerned this would be of small consequence, for whichever candidates are the state will lie well served. But it will be strange if it does not cost the party one or two congressmen in the next house, where they can lie poorly pared. Moreover, the i-esults of such dissensions are not readily healed, and the next presidential election is only two years distant. Of octi I'USKIIAL. Of course it is agreeably titillating to our national vanity to know that our General Wallace is such a great man at Constantinople.

If we may believe the eorresjioiideiitK, the sultan is forever sending for him to the palace to talk over his perplexities with him; and one of the Constantinople newspapers reports that the ambassadors of the European powers recently asked him to use his influence to persuade the Sublime Porte to take part in the conference. But the solier judgment of the country will approve the action of the state department in instructing General Wallace not to meddle or make in old-world politics with which we have nothing to do. Let the general rather employ bis leisure hours in eomiosiiig another of those remarkable religious romances which a no less eminent judge of such matters than Congress man Sam Cox of New York has found au-thodox and edifying. It might not be amiss now for the secretary of the navy to invite Rear-Admiral Nicholson to explain his notice to the commandants of the forts not to send any balls his ay under penalty of an immediate ojiening of fire upon them by the American fleet. Possibly no such notice was given the I-ondou Telegraph's correspondent may have been misinformed.

If it was given, it as wholly uncalled for, and the rear-admiral should be admonished not to be so "previous" in future. He had ample warning of what was coming, ainple time to get out the way, ami no sort of business to be in the way. It was all well enough, of course, to have the American navy such as it is represented iu Egyptian waters under the circumstances. But the tubs were not sent there on a fighting errand, ami such bluster as Rear-Ad-miral Nicholson is said to have indulged iu was, to say the least," not in good taste. We are well out of this eastern disturbance, and tul we have to do is to keep out.

It is quite ia tue cards that we may indirectly profit by it, but is that case the profit will come of itself- In any cce the more scrupulously we mind our own business, and leave to the other nations of the world the tsalc of minding theirs, the better for us. Jljiiiy interested eyes are watching the fate of th Hennepin project in congress.
