A Stratagem that Saved Blueton from Bankruptcy. “Mrs. Blueton,” began her liege lord when he got her alone, “just how many of your relatives do you figure that I have married?” “What can you mean, dearlc?" - “None of that, now. I’m not here to spoon, but to talk business, hot from the bat. The house is_p:i.cked from cellar to garret with your peo- ple, and they’re coming at excursion rates on every train. I’ve been stum- bling over brats and running against new faces all morning. Your mother- in law sails around like the flagship of a squadron. Your male relatives smoke a box of my cigars every day, kick on the quality, and telephone for more at my expense. When we eat the dining room looks like a banquet hall, seven or eight babies squall all night, and I receive about as much consideration as a bound boy at a husking.” “But, darling—” . “Don’t cut in, Mrs. Blueton. Wait till you get my bill of particulars. You asked me to sleep on a cot to- night. Not on your life. I’m going to have at least half a bed, or I’ll turn myself loose. You’ll be assigning me to the hay loft next or hanging me in a hammock on the back porch. You’ll have relatives roosting in the trees and bunking on the roof, if you keep on. You and I have run up against a crisis, madam. If I’m going to con- duct a hotel for your multifarious kinship I’ll hire clerks, bell boys, cooks, waiters, chambermaids and a couple of detectives, put in an elevator and open up a licensed bar. Then we’ll advertise for such remote branches of your relatives as may not be here. The other horns of the dilemma, Mrs. Blueton, are a divorce or an assignment.” But the next day the diplomatic lit- tle Mrs. Blueton was so ill that abso- lute quiet in the house was impera- tive. Blueton watched the exodus with ghoulish glee, and when a pro- cession of twenty-two, followed by seven stragglers, had pased out, he double-bolted the door to join Mrs. Blueton in a high-step walk—around. o matter what: you’ve tried and found want- ing—the remedy for Piles Salva—cea - (TRADE-MARK).

(dau hm" HESTULE_|_)|_AMONllS. Twenty-eight cases constituted the docket in the Superior Court at Bridge- port. yesterday. ' “Not guilty,” as usual, wasthe popular plea when court Opened and the information against the various prisoners was read, but before business had preceded fai', some of them showed a disposition to reverse their pleas. Among those who by advice of coun- sel first pleaded not- guilty. was Charles Thompson of this city who was charged withhaving stolen about $400 worth of diamonds from Mrs. E. Hubbell Hotch- kiss, of Arch street, last September. Thompson, it will be remembered, pawned all the stolen gems, except a diamond pin, in New York and Boston. He gave the pin to a friend. When the theft was detected and he was discov- ered to be the criminal, Thompson ex- pressed repentance, told where the dia- monds were, and all were recovered ex- cept the pin. The family did not care to proceed against their former trusted servant. His counsel yesterday was Attorney Chamberlain of Bridgeport. The information against him was changed to one of theft of diamonds valued at 849 and he then changed his plea to guilty and was fined $50 and costs and sentenced to six months in jail. Lewis Ansenbergand Charles Schultz were among-the first to plead. Both were found in:South Norwalk on Sep— tember 21st in possession of a number of cloaks and sacques which they claimed were given to them. It devel- Oped later that the articles had been stolen from the Adams Express com- pany. The men were held on a charge of burglary. Both pleaded not guilty and were defended by Attorney Lynch. They later changed their plea to guilty and were sentenced to one year each in the State prison. Max Miller and Charles Schultz were charged with the theft of a horse be- longing1to Arthur Sherwood in South- port. The men were arrested in New York through the efforts of a South Norwalk liveryman. Miller was for- merly employed by Sherwood as a farm hand. The horse was taken to New York and sold 9.". one of the auction sales held in that city. A South Nor- walk man purchased it and soon dis- covered that it was stolen. Later, while in New York, the same two men ap- peared at the same stable with another turnout which they offered for sale, and they were arrested. In presenting Mr. Sherwood’s horse for sale one of the men said that it belonged to the estate of his father, who had died in New Jersey, and his mother desired him to sell it,-»as they had no use for the turnout. The prisoners pleaded not guilty. The evidence produced was sufficient to warrant Judge Robin- son in sentencing the men to three years in State prison. William J. \Iercary went into the pockets of one Luke Shannon in Stain. He abstracted from the pockets of Mr. Shannon $40 Worth of money and jewelry. He plead guilty to the charge of theft from the person. Judge Robinson’s sentence Was $100 fine and six months in jail. John Cassidy, charged with. assault- ing Edward Gormonde of Stamford, pleaded guilty. He received a sentence 9] six months in jail. *‘Ov A STATE-MONUMENT.
