The County Commissioners Think as
She Does About the Delaney Case.
The County Commissioners are inclined
to sustain Matron Phelps in her action to
fusing to receive the Delaney child at the
County Home, says the Bridgeport Farm.
er. They their opinion on part of
Section 3,655 of the General Statutes.
which reads: "No pauper or convict shall
be permitted to live. or labor therein,
County Home; and they shall not b'eused
as a permanent protection or resi-
dence for any child, but for its tem-
porary protection, for so long a
time only as shall be absoluwa necessary
for the placing of the child in a well Bf-
lected family home. Children demented,
idiotic, or suffering from incurable or
contagious diseases, are not included in
the provisions of this chapter."
The commissioners state that they do
not deny the regularity of the commit—
ment papers. but claim the subject was
nota legal one. They take the ground
that children are placed in the home»
only temporarily or until they can be pro-
vided with homes in families where tin-y
will receive proper treatment. When
children are taken from the Home by
families. they are taken for the service
they may reader; but no one Would be de-
sirous of taking a crippled child. The
commissioners claim that the Delaney
child's case is one for the Board of Chari-
ties, and that the child should be taken
care of at the almshousc, under their
supervision. Another claim they make
is that the child is a cripple and therefore
is classed as one that comes under the list
referred to in the statute.

Miss Akerslrom‘s New Play.
The first presentation of Miss Aker-
strom‘s play. "A Brave Little Woman,“
occurred last night, at lioyt‘s Theatre
Miss Akerstrom assumed the title role
and was very pleasing indeed. There was
strength and realism in her delineations
and tha earnestness that has always char-
acterized her actings. combined with a
sweet simplicity. especially in the first
act, made her charming. Her characteri—
zation of the Dutch girl was funny and
she was cute as ilot. She has considera-
blyimprovetisincclast seen here. Miss
Marie Warren, who is u very pretty wom-
an, sung popular songs and graciously re-
sponded to elli'Ol'ei-i, as did also J. Hooper

be heard above the others in the
chorus'worh. i'nfortuuately her com-
pany is weak in parts. The comedian
sung the same old stereotyped variety
songs, we have heard for the last three sea-
sons, and which have none of the senti-
mentor charm making their repetition de-
sirable. The one playing henvies was cvir
