The entire country will rejoice at the report of the comfortable establishment of ex-President ARTHUR at his summer residence at New London. In his serious BI-' moss he has had the universal sympathy of the nation.

and will now have its best wishes for his speedy recovery. Called to the presidential chair under the most painful and embarrassing circumstances. Mr. ARTHUR fully demonstrated his fitness for the high position. By the dignity of his heartair, and his ability and tact as a man of affairs, he proved himself both a gentleman and statesman, and won the respect of the people for his administration.

irrespective of party lines. NEW HAMPSHIRE. They are talking, the Democrats of New Hampshire ares about the possibility of car. rying a State ticket and both conctressional districts this fall. And the long-headed leaders of the party say that it can be done positively if only the right men are now-slated.

That "if" is important, but it ought not to be insurmountable. We have no advice to give to the brethren in the Granite State, but merely wait their pleasure, in the hope that they will carefully consider that 'If" and nominate the best men. It would be a glorious thing to make a clean Democratic sweep in New Hampshire next CONFLICT OF SCIENCE AND RELIGION. President PORTER of Yale in his baccalaureate very forcibly pointed out what leems to him to be the coming conflict between science and religion. "Those practical questions." be says.

''which threaten to ngitate and convulse society will very soon force every educated man to ask and to answer the comprehensive inquiry. is there or is there not a kingdom of God slowly but surely lifting itself up in the sight of the nations, or is it a kingdon of science. a kingdom of late and force. that has no promise for the poor. no comfort for the sorrowing.

no justice for the wronged, no deliverance for the oppressed, sr at the utmost, nothing more than a blind tendency of progress toward the brilliant mirage that eternally flees before the disappointed vision." The millions upon millions who hold the Christian faith will feel strengthened by the sturdy adherence of men like President PORTER to the old lines; and whatever opinions may be held. every one will yield respect to the outspoken advocacy of his belief by this distinguished scholar and eologi an. COMMENCEMENT The commencement exercises of our ancient and honorable seat of learning at Cambridge occur tomorrow. me pride of I free country especially is its institutions Dr learning. our colleges and univeriities are not as renowned, on the whole.

as lose of Europe, they have the advantage of not being so much hampered by the mucts- tzaditions of the past. and their steady L. 1 tendency is in the direction of a genius which runs parallel to our democratic bociaty. As our political life is elective so should be our educational. The true purposes of education are utilitarian rather than formal.

The aim of education should be towards the useful rather than the ornamental. and in the end it is true that the greatest ornaments of society will prove to be those most usefully educated. Harvard has in many ways proved that she assimilates the spirit of progret-s. Great institutions of learning do not. of course.

spring upon the crest wave of progress nastily, and have the reputation of conservatism, but our honored seat of learning is less afraid of the innovations of progressive ideas in education than perhaps my in America.

CARDINAL GIBBONS. Archbishop GIBBONS of Baltimore will to.

This is the second occa'don on which the impong ceremonies tending the bestowal of a cardinal's rank have boon witnessed in this country.

ORGANIZATION AND The experience of the Knights of Labor and the trades unionists has opened the eyes of workingmen So the difficulties attending a science upon which they had not much counted. That science is the science of organization.

It differs from an ordinary science in that it has to deal with instincts of human nature, which generally lie dormant until it is attempted to control them. The most persistent trait of human nature is the desire for personal independence. It is easy to cry: Organize! organize! organize! But as soon as it is attempted to mass men and bold them together for a united purpose the force of individual wills and their tendency to revolt against restraint is made manifest, and like a strained vessel a leak breaks outfiero, and another there. till finally the bottom threatens to go out of the whole structure. Organizations held together by religious faith and by ideas inculcated from infancy are growths from the root, nourished by native resources: but organizations like the Knights of Labor, which have no binding principle save practical utility, resting upon a concensus of individual judgments, are in constant danger of disintegration.

and the danger rapidly augments as the organization becomes bulky. The rock upon which Mr. POWDERLY has split is the of subjecting great masses of loosely-organized men to the purposes of a Central will. But whoever has studied the history of great organized movements in the past is not much surprised at this. In this country, especially, it would have been a miracle had it been otherwise.

An organization that does not sustain its solidarity by religious faith, or by fear, must sustain it solely on the individual character of its members. And not only is character required. but also a wholesome unity of judgment and purpose. That an organization like the Knights of Labor. which grew by tens of thousands In a night, should have this of itself without any consolidated discipline and experience is simply impossible.

As was to be expected. the hands of the leaders were soon so full of dissensions, schisms and revolts from the control of the central will that it became unmanageable. The body of the organization grew too rapidly for its legs, and it has had to lie down for a time under Its own weight and bulk. All this will prove valuable experience for the It will teach them how difficult a science organization is. They will come to really that the question of government underlies all questions of combined association for united purposes.

And, what is more it will teach them that the basis of all lasting government is individual self-government. The knights are said to be contemplating a reorganization on principles that will ren der their past dissensions impossible of repetition. In the taint of controlling capital and industry they have begun to realize that the first great preparatory task is that of controlling themselves. That they have found this out is not a misfortune, but rather a promise of ultimate success. If it bas cost something to find it out it is, after all, a good investment which will fully repay itself in time.

When working people have demonstrated that they have mastered the science of organization on a basis that conserves individual liberty, while securing complete solidarity, they will have become masters of society without being tyrants. When they are this, society must bow to them, for it is not written in vain, Labor oninia THE EUSINESS IMPROVEMENT. Reports from variouisections of the cotmtry point to a. gratifying improvement in business. There is nothing like a boom, but the increase is tr steady, wholesome one, and has, apparently, come to stay.

Our contemporaries find, as we do, in lookiug over the field, that there is a better feeling all along the line, and that business men are growing more and more pleased with the prospects. Almost without exception the merchants and financiers who are interviewed 4express a belief that a season of prosperity is now setting in. JESSE SELIGMAN, the well-known New York banker. says: "The outlook covering the next few years I regard as very encouraging indeed, partly by reason of the natural growth of the country, and partly because people are nowadays learning to be a good deal more cautious than they used to be. They are NOt in these times so likely to forget themselves in permitting the prosperity of the motnert to run away with them in the way of overproduction among manufactureis and over-building of railways.

President WILLIAMS of the New York Chemical National Bank sums up the pre-veiling feeling excellently when he declares that "the condition of business at the preseet time is in every way favorable, not for any boom in prices. or any excessive profits. such as we may have had at intervals in the past. but for the success of legitimate business properly conducted. and merchants with whom I converse speak favorably of the ainount of their sales of the present season as compared with the oaks of last season, end few seem disposed, to complain of the business which they are doing." 0: Mr.

F. II. THURBER, the well-known New York merchant, likewise takes a favorable view. and speaks especially of trade in his own line and of methods calculated to remove the causes of labor troubles. He says: "There is a good distributive trade in my Iliac.

The trop reports are very good. and there is a cheerful feeling among our customers, as a whole. Prices in all of the grocery trade are very low. and the chances are that. if any elisnite comes, it will be in the dime.

Roland Reed and Miss Augusta Roche. who appeared in the "Bridal Trap" cast at the Bijou Opera House, were not seen last evening; but in other respects the performance was the same. practically. as that which Miles and Barton offered as the successor to "Adonis" in the little house wbere Dixey was so long the bright particular star. Undoubtedly "The Bridal Trap" is much more of a musical extravaganza than a close adaptation of "La Serment d'Amour." which ranks as a true opera comique In French.

But the fact, did not in the least hinder the acceptance of the production last evening with much show of public favor. Audran's in to L. Serment d'A mour." heard for the first time last evening in Boston. made a very pleasaet hnpression. The score is all smooth, gracefully phrased.

melodious and characteristic. "Hail to Our Young Lord," the chorus of villagers in honor of the count; the country song, "Merrily, Verily. the delightful theme, "From this Day," in which the young nobleman and his love of low degree -plight their troth a trio, unpleasantly beginning "Tear reit your heart," in which the Marquise and her steward seek to eissuade Rosette from remaining faithful to her vow the "fort la ou'rduet (much burlesqued in this version). telling the clasaic story of the loves of Daphnis and Chloe; a resonant and stirring soldiers' chorus and a dainty gavot, sung by Rosettethese are all worthy of the composer whose "Mascotte" and "Olivette" gained for Audran such world-wide fame. Sydney Rosenfeld is the author of "The Bridal Trap." He is known widely as an adapter of comic opera for the American stage.

To him is to be credited what the English-speaking public on this side of the water know, for instance. about "Apajune" and "The Blaek Hussar." Mr. Rorenfold has a predilection for the topical song of the time. and he has introduced one in "The Bridal Tran" as a matter of course. "The Accent On" it is called.

and it is in its way a capital contribution to the opera. both the words and music ueing Mr. Rosenfeld's own. People who have mean this gentleman's adaptations hardly need to he told that Mr. Rosenfeld iar from diffident in the rimaLter of "building up" certain it is thought some such change would help popularize an opera.

The Frenchman who wrote the libretto of "La Serment d'A rimer" might think the book and business of "The Bridal Trap" a most audacious perversion. But it is safe to say that the great Amen-can public will like Foutelaud. the steward. allethe more because he is given pre-eminence in importance. He was certainly the favorite with last evening's audience, which proveu very appreelative and demonstrative.

"Louis de Lange. last seen here in "Oxygen." played the steward role last night He was very successful in amusing his auditors, not only in the interpolated "topical" but in his imitations of the shepherd's pipe in tho "Tee la ea" duet and throughout the opera. Francis Gaillard. formerly with the Gran French troop, sang with the accent on, though in different fashion froth Mr. De Lange.

He is an earnest actor and gave his best efforts to the role of the count, but his voice vi as not in good condition last night. Laura Clement. whilom the 'Vein Yum at the Hollis Street. appeared as the connt's rustic charmer. She failed to invest the role with a great deal of interest, but her interpretation of the music calls for some praise.

As the Marquise. Miss Alice Gaillard made a fairly good impression. and Miss Jennie Prince was acceptable in the small role of -Marion. Mr. Harry Mills as Grivolin, whom the Marquise thinks is wedded to Rosette.

though at last the count gains her by a successful "bridal trap." found a friendly welcome and scored some success. The chorus was large, attractively costumed. well-trained and the presentation. which in poiut of accessories showed careful attention. went very smoothly.

"The Bridal I rap," as to many of its Principal numbers. was redemanded last evenieg. It is to be the attraction at the Boston until further notice. OLD LAVENDER AT THE MESEUM Its First Presentation netore s. Boston Audience.

Edward Harrigan and his New York coinpany had a crowded audience at the Museum last night. The Leven-der," presented now for the first time in Boston. made a bar hit in the Eintare City. Unlike most of Mr. Harrigan's pieces "014 Lavender." while it deals somewhat with "low life." is almost free from the uproarious fun which characterizes the Mulligan series.

It is a comedy. drama full of incident. with a snstaincd story of human interest, and marked by much pathos. wit, humor, philosophy and good common sense. The picture is, of course, the character portrait.

acted to the life by Mr. Harrigan. and the songs. dances and by-play are but the frame iu whieh it is set. But frame and picture are both alike interesting.

Thestory is simple. George Coagsweli (Ed watd Harrigan). cashier in his brother's banking house.is by the machinations of two scoundrels sent adrift on the world with the stigma of a thief. For three years he bears the disgrace, and during this time finds a home with Dick. the Rat (Dan Collyer), at tile water-side, sleeping in a clam-shed or on a raft.

(kinking until his mind becomes a wreck and his body diseased. Tramp as he is, however. his love for Dick is the anchor that holds him to life. He is finally restored to his brother's heart. when the villains who conspired against him are unmasked and a fortunate investment made years before in "Blue Gulch" makes him a rich man at the moment that his brother is ruined.

The scenery by Witham is excellent. especially the interior of the Owl club house and the river front by moonlight. Dave Braham's incidental music and his songs are above the average. "The Jolly Old Owls" was given with a vim. and won an encore; "Poverty's tears ebb and flow" was loudly applauded.

and the chorus finely rendered by a number of male voices from the deck of a river steamer added to the effect. 'Get up Jack John sit down," sang in Mother Crawford's (Mrs. Annie yeamae) sailors' lodging. house, produced roars of laughter. This quaint piece of dramatic work must Prove popular with all classes, Now droll, anon pathetic.

touching the heart with tender sentiment. or exciting the risibles to abundant laughter. "Old Lavender" is comedy, tragedy, farce, burlesque, opera, concert, all in one. There is enough good acting in Pop Jones' coffee and cake saloon to make the piece a success. Johnny Wild.

as Smoke. is intensely funny; Miss Stella Boldface, as Laura, rather overdoes her part, but manages to attract attention; Miss Amy' Lee, as Sally, is a saucy soubrette. All the other part are admirably filled. M. J.

BredleY as Martin 'Wiley, is dude bank clerk, is very amusing and his brogue of full flavor. Harry Fisher as Philip Coggewell, the hardhearted brother and stern banker, is rather stilt, but his part is an unsvmpathetic one. and he may be excused. Altogpther "Old Lavender." with its tine musidascenic play and human nature, is a piece to be seen by all who can appreciate character acting. It will be at least as attraetive as the author's "Loather which has proved successful despite the unfavorable weather.

as stated by them in private conversation. are as follows: That the tin pattern of the opening into the culvert that was put in as evidence Saturday is six inches longer than the opening is wide. and one inch deeper than the space between the Coverina-stone and the flat stone in the bed of the brook: that the stone itself has been turned so that it now covers but about one-half of the space across the opening under the covering-stone, where, as on the day the child was found, nearly the entire space was tilled. The bark spout was covered with boards and was not discovered Saturday night. but when the boards were movect yesterday morning it was at once seen.

The fact that it was covered by the boards, when connected with the fact that the size of the opening into the culvert has been materially suggests the idea that it was purposely hidden. and that it was put there by some person tor the purpose of making the opening larger; or, as one man states it, they wanted to make a hole large enough, and then they would claim that the boy fell into the culvert. The court came in promptly at 9 a. and. when there came a moment that as not occupied.

his honor urged the counsel to waste no time. Royal Hatch testified that be went to the culvert with others Saturday evening; he found that the upper opening of the culvert had been changed so that he could hardly recognize it; he thought the fiat stone in the bottom of Ihe brook bad been changed so as to have its longest point extend into instead of across the opening of the culvert; the first time he saw the stone it was imbedded in the bottom of the brook. but now it is exposed the sand had -been washed away so as to expose two entire bricks; yesterday be saw a bark spout that conveyed the water from an opening in a sod dam down to a point near the that stone In the opening of the culvert; took a hoard, bored a two-ineh bole through it. drove the board into the channel of the brook FO OS to dam it. and found that all the water in the brook would pass through the two-inch hole.

A zinc pattern. supposed to be a lac-simile cf the tin one put in evidence Saturday. was shown. The witness said he attempted to place it In the mouth of the culvert. and found that It was about one inch too high and six inches too long to lit squarely into the opening; by putting' one end down stream and the other end up stream.

he ccould just pull it up under the shelving edge of the covering stone. The force of this testimony will be seen when it is remembered that the tin man. Sanborn, in his testimony Saturday. stated that the Pattern made by him fitted loosely the opening into the culvert. Witness put the board into the stream soon after the shower Saturday, and the water readily ran through the two-inch hole.

Something of a sensation was created oy the witness when in reply to a question as to his present interest in the case be said that when lie discovered that the opening of the culvert had been changed he thought it time for honest men to be astir. Henry Hatch, Sheriff Barron and Dr. S. N. Goss testified substantially the same as Royal Hatch.

Dr. Goss stated positively. however. that the fiat stone at the bottom bad been turned. The las; of the testimony was all in at 4 p.

and the end of one of the most exciting trials ever held in Varmont is now near at hand. The counsel for the defence evidently intend to claim that the opening of the culvert was nearly full of water June 8. and that therefore its topography could not then have been well known. The defence has also shown by the direct testimony of three witnesses that at the time the plan or mould of the opening was made there was no spout of any kind used. nor was the bed of the brook under the upper end of the culvert disturbed by those making the model.

The State was at first disposed to ask for a short time to look over the evioence before beginning the argument, and Judge Rowell was disposed to give until 8 a. m. tomorrow, but the counsel finally decided to begin their arguments tonight Hon. S. B.

Hebard made the brat argument. Mrs. Sloan did not appear very nervous today until Mr. Hebard began his argument, when she became very nervous. and at times cried considerably.

Her nusband has been with her nearly all the time today. Mr. Hebard spoke until 6 o'clock. when the court was adjourned. He will resume his argument in the morning.

DORSEY AND WIFE ON TRIAL. The Latter I. Court With iffer Little linen? Ups. Uer Ureiset NEWPORT, R. June 28.The adjourned term of the Supreme Court came in at 10 o'clock this morning for the trial of Allen W.

Dorsey and Maria B. Dorsey. his wife, for the alleged murder of Mrs. Dorsey's father. Benjamin J.

Barton, on October 6 last. The court room was densely crowded. and fifteen minutes after the opening the court room could not be reached nearer than the street. The prisoners were brought in at 10 o'clock, and the presence of the sleeping infant upon Mrs. Dorsey's breast caused a feeling of reverence and pity that prevented any boisterousness or loud talking.

Both prisoners looked even better than when last before the public. and possessed the same coot indifference which has characterized their behaviour all through the long and tedious examinations. The defendant's counsel, which at the Justice Court consisted simply of William P. Sheffield. is now increased by the presence of Mr.

Sheffield the elder, who is one of the ablest members of the Rhode Island bar. The new attorney-general. Metcalf, assisted by Patrick J. Galvm of this city. rep.

Dorsey coolly asked his counsel for paper and pencil. and took notes for the assistance of the defence. Ile followed the resume closely. but showed not the slightest agitation, and his pencil traces neon the paper were bold and distinct. With his wife, however.

the mother's instincts of love for her offspring moved stronger than her interest in the speaker's remarks. The child. refusing to sleep through a discussion which may prove of so much interest to him in the future, required it's mother's constant attention. She used every means known to a mother to keel) the little fellow quiet, and to tee gratification of those Present succeeded wonderfully well. During these crYing spells the mother's Patience and apparent fondness for her wee son gained for her much sympathy from the audience, both me and women.

At a o'clock the court came in, and the room was densely crowded in a few minutes, The prosecution then began to call witnesses. Francis B. Feekliam, attorney of the court and city solicitor, testified to find-leg Barton lying as if dead. and to answer-mg a womeles cry for bide.

for governor has created no enthusiasm among the Republicans. Mr. BLAINE may speak and speak, but the fact will remain that, so far as honors at the hands of the Republican ring are concerned, "No soldier need apply." Senator BECK acknowledges that his bill to prevent bribery of members of the upper house is dead. Senator EDMUNDS and the other great corporation lawyers killed it with their little hatchets, However, it Is perfectly legitimate when such work is done by great moral lights like EDMUNDS. He was the first choice of the Massachusetts Republican delegation at Chicagoall because Mr.

EDMONDS was very pure and Mr. BLAINE very venal. Nevertheless. Mr. EDMUNDS.

His action a year ago, in causing the defeat of the bill in the Senate. gave reason for believing him capable of Milling his only veto for two years at the hopes of the soldiers.

It was surprising to note with what readiness each responded to his name, and oftentimes when one was negligent those next to him would force him to Perform his duty.

W. a. B. The Word "Function." To the Editor of The will fnd that. according to the precise dictionary meaning of function.

the word could hardly be applied to a locomotive. It can certaiuly be applied to inanimate things. Such phrases as "the functions of the heart," "the function of the liver." are correct English. I name no authorities. for they are used by all authoritiesgood.

bad and indifferent. It seems tO me that this word ought to have something more than the restricted medical use assigned to it in the lexicons, and by common usage it has actually come to be used freely in connection with all kinds of machinery. On the other band, we might borrow a technical railroad expression to describe some Physiologieal condition. and no one would accuse us of using bad English. The Latin work from which "function" is derived (through the French) especially favors such a liberal definition of it.

Yet. it must be admitted that the tic rivations of words in many eases prove nothing at all about their present meanings. For instance, the word "corpse" in modern English means only a dead human body. but its derivation justifies nosuch restricted mean. tug.

The word "knave" meant. a few hundred years ago, merely boy, but its aignification has become so totally changed that a German can bardiv believe it was once the same as his "knabe." There is nothing about the derivation of the words "piano" and "piccolo" to make them specially appropriate names for two musiral instruments. They are respectively Italian for "softly" and It seems singular that the Spanish for function, "funcion." should also mean a theatrical performance. yet such is the case. lemmata Cambridge.

such sentiments as that nine men out of ten are mentally. morally and physically unlit for any woman to marry, will be credited, nine cases out of ten. to some old maid or some woman who is unhappily married. I believe irt using common sense in such matters and not indulging too much in beautiful theories. The world is as we find it, and I have no doubt that the young men and women in this year of grace.

We live in tbe happiest time that has ever been and in the best country that over existed on this earth. NVIty, then. try to deny it? I have not entered this column with any intention of entering into argument with any writer.

I have always read the letters with great pleasure. but it seems to me that the space occupied by some of the writers in spinning out theories on the "whichness of the what" and kindred subjects might, be better utili7ed if letters on practical ideas and interesting questions were written, as was formerly the case.

while Yankee is applied as a nick-name to "Ameritans." To prevent a sty, rub a plain gold ring over it and bathe in warm water. This is an "old woman's receipt," but I suppose it scatters the humor. Thinking over the many -tioble responses th al itoeum has given to sufferers from tire, fever slid famine in hundreds of cases in ell parts of the world, one would herd)), believe that you live in a city "where nature does not permit the heed and Doeket to overgrow or overthrow the heart," oven if yoU do invest in flowers and nage in the observance of Memorial day.
