that if Stenger, would pay his lawyer

At this point, the testimony was in-

he would not allow the machinery of
the law to be used in prosecuting a
criminal case which had for its pur—
pose the laying of a foundation of a
civil suit for damages. He would
therefore adjourn the/cahe for two
months. in er'dei that any civil suit de-

WEIGHING WOODEN TRAYS.

 

A Correspondent Objects to Having
Them Figured at four Cents Each.
Editor Sentinel: Permit me to I11-
rctt attention to a subject that direct-
ly interests everyone that patronizezt
IIIII grocery stores. Ii will be noticed
that of you order a pound of butter or
bird that it will be placed in a wooden
tray and the weight of this is Included
with the goods. In otherlwortls 1'0“
pay for the tray at. merchandise rates
and therefore fall to get 18 ounces
net as is clearly your due. For in-
stance. my grocerymsn this morning
delivered three pounds of butter cost-
ing 90 cents. The package contained
net two pounds fourteen ounces. and
the wooden tray weighed two ounces.
The latter. therefore. cost me nearly
four cents, which would appear to be
rather a high price for wooden ware.
Now will some one of our grocers ex-
plain why they is cold deduct the
weight of these trn 's from the goods
that are. placed in i eat? . If you pur-
chase raisins. cores s , similar Incr-
chundise that comd 1 packages, you
invariably get 16 ounces net and there
Is no deduction for weight of card
board obvering. Such being the case
why should our merchants as a class
sell wooden ware at such a high rate?
It is only fair to say, however. that
the writer has in mind one city grocer
who delivers 10 ounces not of all goods
which he delivers to wooden dishes.
Would add that l consumers would
procure a reliable nmily scale and
weigh their purchases, that the results
at times might be a revelation to them

THIRTEEN AN UNLUCKY NUMBER.

Train 247 with Engine 409 Hits Three
Persons in Two Osys.

The number 13 has proved s hoodoo
again and is now responsible for the
death of three persons. who were
struck at different places, between New
Haven and New York by the train
which leaves here at 9:03 o'clock in
the morning. Two of the persons. one
of either sex were struck by this train
'1 hursday, the woman at Mamsroneck
on the dawn trip and the man near
New York. while the train was on its
return trip. The third victim was a
woman. who was run over at Bridge-
port yesterday morning. ,_

The «prominence of the number 13
with this train coupled with its acci-
dents was being discussed among rail-
mad men today, as this is one of their
pet superstitions. \

In starting out on its lioodoo run
Thursday. it was three minutes late
leaving .‘.ow Haven at 8:18 a in. Sec-
ondly the number of the train is 247.
which, when added is the unlucky;
thirdly, the number of the engihe is
409, which also makes 18 again. Yes-
day mortiing this train was on time.
but the other 18 s were on Illaud and
got in their good work.

Rt, Rev. William S. Derrick Heard in

oopsl Church.

 

'I‘be lit. liev, William lierrII-k
bishop of the African Methodist
(‘liult- Ii who Is Just I-oiilpltIllng a tour
\Aot‘ the New England States, lectured
last night at the N01 walk Methodist
Church (In the negro suffrage problem.
The bishop had to catch a train for-
New York, and though his lecture was
brief, it was to the point and be fore
lbly expressed his views.

He declared that the negro race in
this country is on the eve of a momen-
tous crisis in that an attempt was be-
ing made to dlsfranchise him. in Mis-

gro from being made a voter.
bishop asked for the support of the
northern people in this trying time for
the negro, but admitted people even in
New England were becoming prejiidlc
ed against the negro, because of re-
ports seat from the South by the black
man‘s enemies there.

He strongly refuted the charges that

have been made. against the negro
since his emancipation. it has been
charged ire said that then negro was

lazy and would not work. To prove this
he said that in the. South before the
war 4,000,000 bales of cotton had been
raised. but the your after the war when
the negro was free. but while the coliti-
try was dcvssted by the terrible strug
glc.11,000.000 bales had been raised
Then, too it had been c‘huiged that
tile negro was It consumer and not it
producer and that he was a spend-
tbrift. To meet this charge he said
that the black people thirty-eight years
ago were in bondage with nothing to
themselves but today they pay taxes
on close to a billion dollars' worth of
property.

He referred to the cry that had been
raised because President Roosevelt
had appointed a couple of negro ole-
era in the South. The reason, he said.
was that President. Roosevelt had my
pointed them as men. Other presidents.
Cleveland. Harrison, Arthur and Grant
had appointed men of this color. but
they had been appointed as negroes.

If it is true, he said, that the negro
it not a citizen. then the United States
government can be prosecuted for
fraud for the millions in bonds issued
for the payment. of the expenses of the
Spanish War had all to be signed by a
negro connected with the United
States treasury. Many of the bills in
circulation have to contain this slgna
